We all sit around in a circle shape, and John starts the game, "Never have I ever dated anyone but the person I'm with right now." I put my hand up, along with Alex and Evan.

"Woah, you've dated someone other than Connor? He seems like your one and only," Herc asked Evan.

"Ugh yeah, it was kinda, uh, his sister."

"Woah woah woah, okay then, moving quickly on," said Herc. "Never have I ever traveled out of the country." Laf, Alex, and Connor put their hands up and each gave a short story about an experience out of the country. Well actually, Alex's was more like a synopsis of his childhood, if he told it with more emotion it could've brought one to tears.

"Well thanks for sharing that one Alex," Michael said. "Alright I've got a good one, never have I ever spied on anyone." At this, Jared, Herc, Alex, and Connor put their hands up. They all gave hilarious stories about how they spied on someone, I almost suffocated they were so funny.

"Yeah, so Herc and I had a project due but had no idea how to get it done, so we went and copied King's and George's," Alex started. "So we were in the air shafts, right, 'cause they're only a few rooms down, and we crawled into their dorm and found their project. Well, I took pictures and Herc was on guard, so all was going well until-"

"Until we heard some noise coming from their bedroom," Herc continued the story. "I went to check it out, so when I rested my ear on the door I heard moaning and then yelling, so I got super scared. King stumbled out the door suddenly, and I was in the middle of the living room. After he slammed the bedroom door behind himself, he questioned me. I told him it was a dream and he replied with a slur, 'I've never been drunk, kissing my crush, and slapped all in the same dream before' and then he ran to his bathroom and threw up. Alex and I quickly ran out after that, and ended up getting an A on our project and some awesome blackmail."

The whole group was laughing very hard at this story, and we had almost forgotten about the game.

But, we continued, quite loudly I might add, then someone knocked loudly on the door.

Alex got up and opened it, and a tall dark man was there. "Hey, could you guys keep it down, between your laughing and Jefferson's crying I can't get to sleep," the man told Alex.

"Oh we're sorry, but not really. Everyone, this is Aaron Burr, he- wait. Did you say Jefferson was crying?" Alex said and then darted to another person's apartment.

"Bro, why do you care?" I got up and followed him to what was the door of Jefferson's dorm.

"Blackmail!" Alex said and loudly banged on the door.

"Not right now," came a faint voice from inside.

"They trust you Jeremy, say something and then just open the door, I'll sneak in behind you," Alex directed.

"I- uh- okay? Thomas I need to... borrow some butter, I'm just gonna walk in."

"Okay that's weird you should've made it some kind of emergency so it seemed normal, but not hating."

I rolled my eyes and opened the door to an amazing and hilarious sight. In the dark in front of the TV, Jefferson had a tear-stained face and was curled up against a bright red Madison. Their faces seemed rather close, and Madison had his arms protectively around Jefferson who clung to him closely.

"Oh, yes! Finally got you back Jeffs, oh you are never gonna see the end of this picture!" Hamilton squealed to Jefferson and snickered.

"Why you ill-dressed, pompous little-" Jefferson started but I never heard him finish because Alex pulled me out of there quickly.

"Into your room, quick! Lock the door and I shall explain!"

"Okay, okay. What just happened?"

"Well, Thomas has had the drop on me for like, the past two years, and I finally got him back! Look at how priceless this picture is, Jeffmads has truly been confirmed," Alex stated and passed his phone around.

"So, you guys have a bad history?" I questioned.

"Not exactly, it's pretty complicated. When it comes to academics and debate, we are sworn enemies. Outside of class we have friendly roast offs and try to sabotage each other out of good humor. We also dated for like two months, but that was a super odd and one-time thing."

"Definitely," Laurens swooped in and held his arms around Alex's waist.

"Jerry-berry, I'm tired, can we go to bed now," came a sleepy Michael from the couch.

"Dude it's only like- oh my god, three a.m. yeah let's goes to bed! I have to get up for work in five hours," I complained and headed to our room. "You guys can sleep wherever, or stay up, just don't bother poor James or Thomas again."

"Alrighty goodnight you two," Evan said and waved us off to our bedroom.

"Wait could we get some pillow and blankets?" Laf asked.

"Sure how many do you need?" I took care of their needs while Michael got ready for bed.

"All of them! I wanna build a pillow fort!" Laf squeaked.

"Is he always a high five year old at this time?" I asked and Herc laughed and nodded his head.

I grabbed all of our extra blankets and pillows out of the closet and dropped them on the floor, "Here you guys go, use whatever you want."

As I walked out and dimmed the lights in the living room, I saw how everyone was organized. Connor and Evan were cuddling on the couch, Alex and Laurens still quietly talking, and Herc and Laf asleep in a makeshift pillow fort.

I pulled off my shirt and pants, hopping into bed with only my boxers. "Good night, Jer," Michael says as I turn toward him.

"Night Mikey," I say before kissing his forehead, then I stayed close to him while falling asleep.
