Alexander Hamilton, a bastard, orphan, Caribbean immigrant, never had the best of luck with foster families. Or life for that matter. When he was ten, his father left. Twelve, when his mother died of pneumonia. And thirteen, when the hurricane came and destroyed St. Croix, taking his brother James as it left. He was then sent to America, to hopefully have a fresh start, with a new family, in a new country. But now here he is, at the age of fifteen, in the NYPD Social Services building, beaten, broken and bruised, waiting for his next foster placement.
Enter the Washingtons.

Come Back Home (Lams Celeb AU)
John Laurens is the ultimate celebrity. He's charming, he gives to charities, he's crazy talented, and on top of that, the whole world loves him. Well, the whole world except for his childhood best friend, of course. When John had left to become a superstar, he left Alexander Hamilton behind. They had lost contact after a couple years as John got sucked up into the world of being famous. So what happens when John, the singer devoted to his music, visits Alex, the scorned man who no longer enjoys his company, after ten years? ~.~ This story is inspired by Anthony Ramos's album, The Good and The Bad, and each title uses the song titles. (This book was written before the news of the breakup, and I was too far to turn back and change the story) I do NOT own the characters in this story, they all belong to history and Lin Manuel Miranda's musical, Hamilton. Cover Art creds @annanymous_ MATURE for strong language, and talk about sex (skips past actual sex scenes). WARNING: Most replies from me will be ominous, beware of the smiley face :) Unless otherwise specified, story will be told in John's POV.Complete
Save Me·Jamilton
Alexander Hamilton was just a normal 18 year old but when he meets Thomas Jefferson everything changes. He had it all, a good boyfriend, a good adoptive family, a good group of friends. The two couldn't be more different and yet, they are so similar. Thomas Jefferson was a 20 year old who was the brother to Lafayette. He thought of Alexander as Annoying but it went from loathing to something more. Alex was a college Freshman while Thomas was a college Junior. They became enemies ever since the first encounter but Thomas can't deny how he really feels. Encounter after encounter, they learn more than they would like until everything comes lose. And getting stuck as Roommates doesn't make it any better.Complete

He lives alone and has to work to pay rent. Peggy had a hard life with her sisters and her own problems.
