Hi everyone! This is my first Hamilton fanfic and I am supper excited about it! This is a high school AU, so the characters my be a bit different. I want to say happy birthday to my best friend Nicole!
This story is unbetaed so sorry in advance for any mistakes.
Also just a heads up, this story has to do with homophobia.
"I love you."
"I love you too Alex." John Laurens says with a big smile on his face. His boyfriend, Alexander Hamilton, leans in to give him a kiss. John kisses back happily before puling back slightly.
"You better get to class, you don't want to be late again."
The smile Alexander had on his face slipped off. "John please be careful."
John gave him a reassuring smile "I'll be fine Alex, don't worry." The other man pulled him into a hug, his voice muffled by John's shirt but you could here him say
"I always worry." The bell decided to ring at that moment. "
Go, I'll be fine." John gave him a playful shove. Alex gave him one last smile before slipping out of their hiding spot and running down the hall to class yelling behind him "I'll see you after class."
John chuckled and shook his head before he turned walked down the hallway in the opposite direction, suddenly he hears a voice call out
"Hey Laurens." John stops dead in his tracks when he hears the voice, knowing exactly who it is. John turns his head and sees Thomas Jefferson walking down the hall followed closely by James Madison and John Adams.
"What do you want Jefferson?" The taller man walks over to John and looms over him.
"What were you and Hamilton just doing." Thomas asks in an accusing tone. John just glares up at him, refusing to let himself be intimidated by the other man's height.
"That is none of your business." Jefferson laughed at his answer, the laugh was completely void of humor and sounded quite cruel.
"Well actually it is. I've told you before, we don't like queers at this school."
John rolled his eyes and responded with "That's rich, especially coming from you."
if looks could kill John would be dead on the ground. Thomas grabbed him by his shirt and slammed him into a row of nearby lockers, holding him up so his feet dangled a few inches above the ground.
"You better watch what you say, or you might get hurt."
John decided that it was in his best interest to remain quiet and opted instead to glare at the taller man. Unfortunately Thomas counted that as a win.
"What? No smart comments? Are you scared?" Jefferson mocked.
John huffed "The day I'm scared of you is the day you and Madison come out of the closet." He knew as soon as he said it that he could not have said anything stupider. Thomas had a rage in his eye as he threw John to the ground and kicks him in the side.
"James and I aren't disgusting freaks like you and Hamilton. I told you to watch what you say, but I guess we will just have to teach you a lesson instead." Thomas continues to kick him, aiming a few at Johns face. James and John (Adams) join in at one point. John tries to fight back but fails because it's three against one, but he manages to curl himself into a ball to try and protect himself a little bit from their abuse. At one point one of them manages to get a good shot at his chest and he feels a rib crack, causing him to let out a soft cry. Jefferson hears it and laughs.
"You hear that boys? Do you think he's learned his lesson?"
John Adams shakes his head "Not at all, I think we need to drive the lesson in harder." James shakes his head in agreement. At that moment a teacher sticks her head out her class room door.
"What are you boys doing outside of class?" Thomas puts on a fake worried look and turns to face the teacher.
"It's our friend, we found him out here like this." He says gesturing to John who is still curled up in a ball on the floor, blood coming from cuts and tears running down his face. "We were about to take him down to the nurse." The teacher shoots him a look telling him that she is not buying his story.
"I'll call her up, you three may return to class." The tone of her voice left no room for arguments.
"Yes Ma'am" James said before pulling Thomas away, John Adams following closely behind. The teacher watched them walk down the hallway and turn the corner at the end. She then stepped into her classroom and called the nurse up, telling her to bring the wheel chair. The kind looking old lady showed up a few minuets later with the requested wheelchair. She gasped when she saw the state that John was in. She gently coaxed him out of his ball and helped him into it. As she was wheeling him down she asked John about what happened, but he ignored her. When they got to the nurses office she helped him onto a cot and began to bandage him up as much as she could.
Leave me comments! Anything at all! See you next time.
