Alexander Hamilton is adopted by the Washingtons, along with Lafayette. They're both starting 10th grade, but for Alexander, it's a brand new school. Lafayette's best friend, John Laurens, has piqued Alexander's mind. But when Alexander meets him in person, he falls head over Converses. This story is a Hamilton Highschool AU that takes place in the present, which WAS 2017. It only follows mainly Alexander's thoughts and emotions. (Switching to other POVs for jokes and plot.) Was written about high school by someone who had not yet been in high school. So middle schoolers reading this, do not hold your expectations so high. !! READ AT YOUR DISCRETION! I WROTE THIS IN 2016-18 AND IT DOES NOT REPRESENT WHO I AM TODAY! Thank you. !! ⚠️TIGGERS: Suicide (attempts), self-harm, mentions of abuse, homophobic slur, mention of r*pe in Ch 16 and after, and there are probably more. Twelve-year-old me is not responsible for your triggers. ⚠️ There is also cussing. Problem? Leave. All said aside, I hope you enjoy. :))

✨ TW ✨ Alex had the toughest childhood you could imagine. His father left him and his mother. His mother died when he was young. He moved in with his cousin, who abused him then committed suicide. His tough life has caused him to become selectively mute. He hasn't spoken a word since he was 15. But, when he meets John, his dorm mate, his outlook on life is turned around. (Not my drawing) ⚠️ Warning ⚠️ Physical abuse Mental abuse Self-harm More, there are a lot of triggers side note: please do not ask about smut, i will not be writing it

THIS STORY PLOT IS NOT MY ORIGINAL IDEA. ALL RIGHTS BELONG TO @PURPLE-Ryu12345 AND HER BOOK. thank you. John Laurens is finally escaping hell in South Carolina to go to Kings College. When he gets there, everyone is baffled by the new kid. Why is he always wearing a skirt? He says he isn't trans, so what is it? Wowee i suck at writing descriptions. Also this is my first fic please don't hate i am but a smol bean T/w contains homosexual slurs, maybe self harm, abuse, cursing, suicide MY STORY IS NOT MY OPINION!!! I FULLY SUPPORT ALL LGBTQ+ PEOPLE!!! THE CHARACTERS ARE NOT SOMETHING TO MODEL OFF OF, SOME HAVE VERY WRONG OPINIONS. I DO NOT MEAN TO OFFEND ANYONE ON THIS STORY. lmfaooooo i just came back to this. sry if ur just discovering it, i will probably never finish it. i am violently embarrassed by my grade 8 writing skills, but if you enjoy it, i'm glad! peace 2023

Alexander Hamilton had just started college when he meets his new roommate, John Laurens, at first he thinks that his new roommate is childish but what will he do when he starts to fall for John?! BTW, this is my first fanfic

(High school AU) "Alright class. Today we will be doing something called pen pals. You'll be writing to the students from Princeton high school." Mr Washington announced. "Pen pals? What are we? 6?" Alex thought. When Alex and John start writing to each other, everything changes for them.

"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)

(THIS STORY IS COMPLETE) John has always been able to hear the thoughts of people who liked him. He's always heard girls voices all around him. 'He's so cute!!' 'Oh my gosh he looked at me!!!!!' John has always been gay so this gets annoying rather quickly. 'Wow...he's incredible...' Then one day John hears the voice of his best friend Alexander Hamilton... 'Nobody is this adorable...it should be a crime...' Despite being shocked that he was hearing a boys thoughts... 'Could he be more amazing?' Maybe John has fallen for his best friend too... (THIS STORY IS COMPLETE)

•AU Modern Lams• What better way to get rid of your kid for three months than summer camp? That's exactly what's going through the mind of John Laurens' father. It's not like John WANTED to come here-but maybe this place has some benefits. Accepting people, great friends, a free t-shirt, and a really cute guy... CATHERINE IS NOT A SCHUYLER IN THIS STORY.
