After life threw Alexander around for years, things finally started settling down. He had a loving family, an education, and caring friends. A home.
But of course, the world isn't quite done with him just yet.
When he starts talking to John Laurens, supposedly bratty, snobbish, rich John Laurens, and finds out that what people say about him are nothing but myths he finds himself tangled on a secret friendship which eventually morphs, quite accidentally, into something more with the South Carolinian. He can't let people know about them, especially not his lovable but oh so overbearing brother Lafayette.
It gets even worse when feelings are thrown into the picture.
But whatever, what Lafayette doesn't know won't hurt him, right?
[LAMS college AU] John Laurens, an ordinary South Carolinian college student, makes an online friend named AnotherScottishTragedy. He assumes that this boy is just like him, just an ordinary college student with an ordinary life. When John discovers that his online friend is the famous writer Alexander Hamilton, he is starstruck. He is amazed that someone as brilliant as Alexander would want to be friends with him. But when John's feelings for Alexander begin to go beyond friendship, things take a turn for the worst. John can't love Alex, can he? Because Alex is too good for him, isn't he?
