"Raise a glass to the four of us!"

The sound of our drunken voices filled the air as the four of us sang happily. I laughed and stumbled around as Alexander leaped upon the wooden table we were seated at, and started singing and dancing for us.

I sighed as I twisted a strand of my curly hair around my finger. He looked so hot in that moment, I had to stop myself from moaning.

I knew that what I was thinking was wrong. We were both two men of the same gender, for heaven's sake! But it wasn't as if I really gave a shit, anyway. I was brought back to the present by the sounds of chairs scraping and glasses clinking.

"Laurens, would you do me the pleasure of joining me for a midnight stroll?" Alexander called from across the bar where he was already waiting. I grinned and nodded.

"Farewell," Lafayette exclaimed, as Herc waved from behind the french man. The last thing I saw before we left was them both turning to one another and smirking.

*****************************************

As Alex and I walked, I had to resist the urge to reach over and grab his hand. After a few minutes of walking, we reached his small house and quickly hurried inside. He pulled me up the stairs towards his bedroom, with me giggling behind him.

When we got there, Alex picked me up and laid me down gently on the bed. As we laid there together, I flipped over to face him and whispered, " Lexi, I hate this. I hate having to hide this. The fact that I'm completely and utterly in love with you."

I could feel myself beginning to tear up and Alexander quickly pulled my body against his so that I was practically on his chest.

" My dearest Laurens, I love you more than you could ever know. You are my whole universe and without you, I would be nothing," he whispered back. I smiled against him, then leaned down to kiss his little nose.

" You're my special turtle boy and I would gladly trade my life for yours, John."

At this point, I felt so overwhelmed with love for this man, Alexander Hamilton, that I just could no longer contain myself. I began to kiss him passionately while he responded happily by grabbing my legs and bringing them closer to his chest.

I had no idea what kind of position we were in, but god knows it felt good. Just then, he pulled away.

" Lexi," I whined at the sudden loss of contact. He only smiled kindly and reached for something in his pocket. I tilted my head in curiosity.

Alexander then pulled out a string and reached up to try it loosely around my neck, and then pulled it down to where it was hidden away from sight.

" This is for you, Laurens. I know we can never get officially married and I dream for a time in the future where we can, but for now we can't. But still, I know I will never be satisfied until you are my husband. So will you, John Laurens, do me the honor of being my husband?"

I gasped and had to grab onto Lexi in order to hold myself upright. I turned to him with tears once again in my eyes and said happily and clearly, " Of course, I love you so much Alex!"

He grinned and pulled me down on top of him for another heated make-out session. And, well, I suppose you can guess what happens next.
