Chapter 7:
Alexander is standing right outside the college building. The wind is playing with his hair, turning it into a disheveled mess. He looks up at the building and feels expectation build in his chest. He'd made it here. He would graduate college. He would not throw away his shot.
Alexander takes a deep breath of the fresh fall air and half turns as he hear people running towards him. John Laurens comes to a halting stop next to him, Lafayette and Hercules right behind him.
"God, Alex, there's no need to be so early," John laughs. His cheeks are pink from running and his hair is as messy as Alexanders.
"He's right, mon ami," Lafayette says, shaking his head.
"Exactly," Hercules chuckles. "We still have like ten minutes, that's plenty of time!"
The four boys laugh before turning towards the staircase leading up to the building before them. The very building they'll be spending the next four years of their lives in. Together.
John smiles at Alexander, the sun hitting his face and making it look like he's glowing. Alexander returns the smile, grinning with his entire face.
John takes his hand.
"College, can you imagine?"
Thank you so much for reading this fanfic. I had such a good time writing it, and I'm really sad that it's done, but even good things must come to an end. If you've enjoyed it, please, send me a message and let me know. If you want to obviously, I'm not forcing anyone to (though I would be really happy if you did). Again, thanks for reading and have a great day/night. Take care!
Edit: A few people have asked if I'll write more, so I'm thinking of making a story with really short one-shots. I'll post the title of the story here when I've written it, so if you'd like to read something like that, check it out! Big thanks to everyone who told me they'd like to see more, it means the world to me!
Second edit: The story is up and called "Roommates since 2 am" if you want to raed it!
