A/N: Feel free to leave suggestions for one-shots and the occasional multichapter fics.
John Laurens: I was waiting for General Washington to arrive when I noticed Alex fidgeting. He was singing part of the song I taught him mixed with his past. When he got to the part where he says, 'rise up' I joined in, he looked surprised that I joined in. All our other friends joined in as well and soon enough we were finishing the song, that was when Aaron Burr came and announced that the General was approaching. I saw an almost gleeful expression on Alex's face.
Alexander Hamilton: We were all waiting for General George Washington to arrive. I was nervous, to say the least, I was ready to sacrifice anything and everything for the independence of the nation. Out of nerves, I found myself singing the song John had taught me. Once I sang 'rise up' John joined in and to say I was surprised would have been an understatement. Before I knew it the rest of our group of friends had joined in. That was when Aaron Burr sir announced that General Washington was approaching. I was overjoyed.
John Laurens: We all watched as the General gave a speech and exclaimed that he was going to need a right-hand man; at that Alexander looked like he was hoping to be General Washington's right-hand man. Just then I saw Burr seemingly thinking of a way to become the right-hand man. I watched as Washington made his way to his tent. A while later Burr made his way over to the tent, just as General Washington sent a messenger to fetch Alexander. That was when I knew Alexander would get his wish.
Alexander Hamilton: When the messenger Washington sent found me and told me my presence was requested, I immediately tried to think of what I had done wrong. When I entered the tent, I saw Burr speaking to Washington as if he was giving advice. I felt like I would never get another chance until Washington told Burr to leave. At first, I felt relieved, then I started wondering what I could've done to make Washington speak to me in private. When I asked if I had done something wrong he explained that he needed help and asked me to be his right-hand man. I then proceeded to help him create a strategy. When we were done we left and told everyone one that I was his right-hand man. Burr's expression was one of longing and envy. John and our friends were simply surprised and proud.
John Laurens: When Alexander came back he was following the General; to say I was astonished would have been an extraordinary understatement. When I looked to watch Burr all I saw was resentment, longing, and envy. I turned to watch my friends' reactions as the General proclaimed that Alexander was his new aide-de-camp or right-hand man. On our friends' faces, I saw expressions of joy, pride, and astonishment. All I felt was pride that Alexander someone who had suffered so much made it so far.
Alexander Hamilton: I had made it! I had finally made it! Of course, I still wanted to fight but for now, I was good as Washington's right-hand man.
Both: [signing] Here comes the General. And his right-hand man.
