Alexander Hamilton was adopted into an orphanage when he was younger and now, 20 years old, works there.
John Laurens was raised in a homophobic household and signs up for a stay-away job as a teacher at an orphanage... in New York.
Both from unhappy pasts, these two find solace in each other and the community that the orphanage provides. Tension grows, feelings develop, and escaping their respective pasts becomes harder.
Can they face their demons together and find the courage to tell each other how they feel?
Fluffier than it sounds. Like, so fluffy. 40% fluff, 40% drama, 20% hurt/comfort.
Side ships: Jeff/Mads is developing, boyf-riends is in the works, Kliensen, Marliza, and Zoelana make appearances. Sally and Peggy also are pining for each other. DRAMA.
Trigger warnings: violence, abuse, gay slurs (censored), implied (past) rape, suicidal thoughts.
Characters from: Lin? Hamilton? History? Dear Evan Hansen, Be More Chill, In The Heights.
John Laurens is a shy 15 year old, in the closet. His only wish of this school year, is to be more confident about himself. Make friends. Maybe even get a boyfriend.
Alexander Hamilton, an 18 year old senior, popular, and has a girlfriend named Eliza. Little did anyone know, girls aren't his only preference.
(I know that Laurens is the one that's 3 years older, but John sounds cute as a shy kid. I also know this is probably crappy, and ive changed some details, such as Lafayette being three years older than Laurens instead of three years younger, and ive made relations between characters that aren't real. But i love Hamilton and i ship Lams).

This is all pretty badly written so be warned. There's also a part two but it's on hiatus.
