Warning for mild language, character death/injury, mention of death and gun violence, intense feelings. If you know the story of the musical Hamilton or the history of the U.S.'s first treasury secretary, you would know that Alexander Hamilton's oldest son, Philip, got himself into a duel and was shot and killed in the year 1801. But what if Philip had been shot in modern America? What if today's medical advances had allowed Philip to live through the duel? What would happen next? This fic has taken me a long time to write solely because of the ending. The real life Alexander died in a duel like his son did, and the irony hurts. But it's difficult to imagine how the situation would have played out if Philip lived. Would Alexander still have gone into the duel? There are so many options. Why not pick your own as you read?

John Laurens was dead. Yep. He was gone. Or was he? He didn't know for sure. A slight cry was heard. A woman ran into the room. It was Eliza? John was confused. Something was off. He was dead, and he was alive... as a ghost. BIG OLD NOTE: This WILL NOT be edited again since I've fallen out if the fandom. However, I LOVE reading your comments on this story. Thanks a lot for the support, everyone <3 (On that note, I do apologise for any spelling mistakes, off sentences, ect ect. I wasn't the best at writing at the time.) Ha that's a bad description XD Pretty much John is dead and he finds himself in the Hamilton house. Alexander doesn't know he's there, but Phillip does. It'll be explained I guess. I don't own Hamilton or the Ghost Laurens AU. Minor Warning: Swearing, Gay (Lams moments from Laurens remembering--), sad moments Cover drawn by me btw (Phillip is cute--) (Update, November 5, 2018: a couple of years later and this thing is ranked. Thank you guys for tolerating my horrible writing and old cringey self.)
