"Do you think God stays in heaven because he, too, lives in fear of what he's created?"-Steve Buscemi, Spy Kids 2 Hamilton wants the d(ark roast) *rereads this story* CRAWLING IN MY SKIN THESE WOUNDS, THEY WILL NOT HEAL This is a Lams coffee shop AU written from mostly John Laurens' P.O.V., but it does switch from time to time. In it, Laurens works the night shift at a coffee shop (who knows if a 24 hour coffee shop exists, but in fiction, anything is possible), that Hamilton decides to go to when after he gets struck with writer's block. Normal coffee shop AU antics ensue. To be honest, a lot of the story isn't actually in the coffee shop, but... So anyway, it's gay and no one dies...(yet) Buckle up and hold on. (Cover by yamhaylet)

John always loved his life in New York. He had great friends, an enjoyable job, and a family that may take him in as their son. How could it get any better? Alexander that's how.

All Alexander had ever wanted was someone to appreciate him and love him. John Laurens is all that and more. But with the social pressures of women and the war going on, will they remain friends or can they fan a spark into a flame? John Laurens doesn't die!AU
