Eliza smiled at Alexander's happiness. He'd been elected treasurer, much to his delight. The only downside was Jefferson and Madison were elected secretary and president. Eliza herself was just a member of the council, but she hadn't tried for more than that.

"I can't believe I'm treasurer! I'm going to run for president next year."

"I bet you'll get elected, Alex."

"Yeah. But unfortunately, I have to work with all of Jefferson's gang, because James and Lee both got spots on the council."

"Not ALL of his gang. Maria isn't on anything."

"Does she really count though? She's there because of James."

"Of course she counts."

Alex shrugged. "If you say so."

Jefferson walked up to them. "You better not screw up this student council, Hamilton."

"I'm sure he'll do great," Maria said kindly.

"You say that Maria," Madison said. "But he won't."

Alex rolled his eyes. "I think the one most likely to screw up is Jefferson or you, Madison."

"No kidding," John said, as Hercules pushed him towards the group. He'd been hurt pretty bad during the game, broke two ribs, his arm, and his ankle. Stupid British playing dirty. Still, it could have been worse.

"Whatever."

The teens glared at each other until Maria intervened. "Boys, boys, you're all pretty. Now how about you guys be pleased that you all got what you wanted, mmkay?"

"Fine," Jefferson grumbled.

"Hey, Maria," Aaron said. "Where's James?"

"Home sick." As if on cue, her phone rang. "F***," She whispered.

Everyone looked at her in surprise.

"What, is there a rule against me swearing?" She asked sarcastically. "I've gotta go. James is calling, I'm sure he's asking me to come home."

She walked away, answering up her phone.

"Maria's acting weird, right?" Aaron asked.

"Maybe it's that time of month?" Jefferson suggested.

"Don't assume she's on her period. She might just be moody. It happens to everyone," Angelica scolded.

"Fine," Jefferson said, putting his hands up in surrender.The bell rang and, with a feeling of deja vu, they went to class.
