Chapter one: The accident

John Laurens' pov:

Hi! I'm John! People call me Laurens, I don't really know why, but, it happens! Anyway, I attend King's College in New York. We recently got a new foreign exchange student from France, Lafayette, we as in my roommate Hercules and I. Lafayette is also our roommate now. We do the average things, study, play video games, and stay up all night on weekends playing them. I've pulled way more than a few all-nighters on Sundays to get last minute projects done.

It's my first year here, I'm studying law to become a lawyer, so is Marquis, but he goes by Lafayette. Hercules is studying law, but he wants to become a congressman. I know i'll give him my vote! I have a job at the cafeteria just to make some cash. I work on Saturdays and Sundays from 10-5. On Fridays I only have from 3-5. It's slow, I do a lot of homework and watch a lot of space documentaries. I almost came here to study supernovas and stars, my foster mother was worried I won't be able to get a job. She's worried about this lawyer thing too, but, she agreed to this.

Hercules has signed up to help students that are new or join during a semester. And that's where the story starts.

"John! Lafayette!" Hercules says one Thursday night. I am wrapping up my homework sitting at the desk in the corner of the room. munching of slices of pizza here and there.

"Oui mon ami?" Marquis says standing up from his spot on the couch and walks over to Hercules where he sits on his bed reading a text.

"I got a student! Should I accept it?" Hercules asks, then says it in french for Lafayette. I check my watch: 8:50.

"Fais comme tu veux mon cher ami," Lafayette tells him reading over his shoulder. (He can scarcely read english, but has trouble talking in our language. I'm suddenly glad I chose a French course in high school over Latin, although, Latin would help with studying law terms,) "son nom est alexandre je vois?"

"Oui" Hercules says. "Laurens?"

"I told you, it's John." I say taking another greasy bite. "Sure. What Lafayette said."

"Qu'a t'il dit?" Lafayette asks Hercules before I go back to my reading.

"Il a dit 'bien sûr, que faire comme je veux'," I hear Hercules say before I zone back into my book.

"John! John!" Lafayette shakes my shoulder. "Viens, il est là!"

"Who's here?" I ask placing a bookmark in my book and set it down before standing.

"Le nouvel étudiant d'Hercule pour aider" Lafayette pulls my arm and over to the door where Hercules was standing eagerly.

"Will he be our new roommate or what?" I ask Hercules and when Lafayette asks, I translate for him.

"No, but he'll be right across the hall, he should be here any minute" Hercules replies calmly, but rushed as if over the top excited.

"Wait, how long was I reading? Don't these things take time?" I ask checking my watch again: 9:25.

"Chut, ne remets pas ça en question mon ami." Lafayette says turning around pretending to check a text on his phone.

"He's here! il est là!" Hercules half shouts half whispers. Knock knock! The student doesn't even get his knuckles off the door before Hercules opens the door, he jolts it open so fast he hits my nose, spraying blood everywhere.

Hercules hurries to help me and Lafayette shows him where to place his bags. But not before I get to see his face. He has a kind smile, heart warming smile that makes my heart skip a beat. I feel my cheeks flush. I'm snapped back into reality when Hercules rushes me over the kitchen sink.

"Sorry!" Hercules yells over his shoulder to him. Turning back to me he says, "Can you handle this? Here's the paper towels. Please try to hurry!" He gives my back a small pat and runs back to the main room with Lafayette and… him. What did Lafayette say his name was? Alexander? I wonder what he's studying, and how do I say this? Slightly interested in me?

Yasss! My first chapter! I'd like to dedicate this story to my friend, her account name is IHopeThatYouBurrn, I'm trying to get her to write one, but she won't. She actually gave me the idea for this story and encouraged me to get an account to share my stories with the world. I have made plenty stories to keep posting. I even turned my Language Arts assignment into a fan fic, i'll share that when I have time to type it all up. I realize that Lafayette talks a lot. If you want me to add in English what he said I'll be more than happy to, just comment so! Chapter two coming next week! Thank you all so much! Love you all! -Bettyslilcrazy22
