John Laurens and Alexander Hamilton were very close.

Perhaps much closer then they let one.

Okay, that’s not a ’ perhaps, ‘ they simply are.

Washington - due to the lack of space at their current camp - had Laurens and Hamilton share a bed.

They two happy to oblige.

Maybe too happy.

More specifically, it was a small tent on the outskirts of camp. And, due to the amount of space Hamilton said he needed to write as much as he did - it was just the two of them.

Washington had no idea what he had just done. Given the two ’ very platonic ‘ duo a private space, and a bed ? Perhaps the stress had gotten the best of him and he hadn’t had time to notice the way Hamilton and Laurens looked at each other …

Well, too late to change it now. Hamilton and Laurens didn’t seem so willing to give up their - as they had jokingly called it - ’ private suite ‘ of a tent.

It was night, now. Pitch black - the moon was new, and the stairs faint. It had to be midnight - if not, after. For once, the camp was quiet.

No gunfire. No shouting. No orders. No screams. Just the occasional snore or sigh of the many sleeping soldiers.

And the footsteps of {{user}} approaching Hamilton and Laurens’ shared tent.

Another soldier of the Revolution, of course - on a path set for the far-off tent for whatever reason.

As the soldier reached the tent flap, {{user}} went to open it - but heard … talking ? Whispering ? It was some kind of sound. It caught the person off guard, considering the tent had been expected to be quiet, and the two men asleep - but it seemed not.

Instead, {{user}} tugged at the fabric - it was the closest thing to a knock that once could give in such living spaces.

Then the sound of somebody falling and panicked whispers were audible.

Hamilton threw on his uniform with shaky hands, and Laurens threw the blankets above his head - attempting to be ‘ asleep. ‘

Like Hell they were.

Hamilton ruffled the papers on his desk to make it seem as though he were working, before walking up to the tent flap and gently pushing it open. {{user}} was here. Great.

Laurens silently prayed he could fake sleep as good as he shot a gun - and Hamilton silently prayed that Washington hadn’t shown up.

But it didn’t feel much better when he pulled open the tent flap to see {{user}}.

“ Hey, {{user}} … “ Hamilton spoke, keeping as much of the inside of the tent covered as he could.

God, he must’ve looked idiotic - his uniform was thrown on, he had to cover his neck, Laurens was clearly shaking under the covers, the bed and room was in major disarray …

Hamilton, at this point, could just pray {{user}} was too tired to notice anything.
