Tw: Sad laffy
summary: based on actual thing that happened but Laf and washingdad fall asleep under a fig tree after the battle of Monmouth
...........................

Washingdad POV

Monmouth was hard. Charles lee was retreating for no reason. I thought he could handle being in charge but clearly not. I only promoted him so that I didn't have to promote Hamilton. I had to keep Hamilton safe. Luckily Lafayette was here or I don't know what would have happened back there.

I finally made it up the hill I was climbing and sat under the fig tree. I sighed in relief as I took a well deserved break. I let nature do it's thing and relax me.

Time skip brought by daveeds super fast rapping.

I don't know how long it's been but it doesn't feel like it's been that long. I probably should have been keeping track of time, but the camp will survive without me for a while, right?

Someone was coming up the hill. What? How did they find me? I just want a brea-

The young, curly haired, French soldier collapsed a few inches away from me. It was Lafayette, whom I had given command earlier. I don't even think he realized I was here.

An:underlined is said in French. I'm too lazy for google translate ok?

" oh god that was intense. I didn't even know generals did so much. " He mumbled in French.

" you think that's bad, you should see my workload." I say in agreement. I think I scared him.

" AHH. mon general, I didn't see you there." He breathed out. He closed his eyes and leaned back against the tree. He look on the verge of of tears.

" no worries.... Hey, son, are you ok?"  I ask concerned.

" what? Oh yes, sir I'm fine" he said but I wasn't convinced. He gave me a fake smile at first but it slowly melted of his face. Lafayette let out a sigh. " non, not really, I'm just-" he cut himself off with a shaky breath as he held his head, trying calm himself down.

" hey, you can talk to me, son. What ever it is, I'm sure I can help."  I say and put a reassuring hand on his shoulder.

" thank you, and it's nothing really I just" he takes a breath. " I don't know, I guess being a general so suddenly, it- it was just a little overwhelming." He looked down. He squeezed his eyes shut. He didn't realize it but a few silent tears rolled down his cheek.

" oh Laf, come here son." I pull him closer and put my arm around him. " I wouldn't have given you command if I didn't think you could handle it."

" I know mon ami and I can It's just, I- I um, I mean" he lets out a sigh. I patiently wait for him to let out what he needs to say. " I just was given a lot of responsibility and a lot of extra things to do and just- it was a lot all at once!" He exclaimed before burying his face into my chest.

" oh son, I know it was a lot but I needed you to fill that role since lee clearly couldn't. " that got a slight chuckle " I understand you were put under lot of stress but, for now, at this moment, let's just take a break and escape for while, ok?" I say soothingly.

He pulls away and wipes the tears from his face. " yeah, that- that sounds good." He says and leans into me. I look around and we take in nature for a little while more.














" Lafayette as much as I love this, we should probably go check on the camp-" I cut myself  off  when I look down and see my son has fallen asleep. He actually looked really peaceful, so I decide that the camp is fine and we can stay here until he wakes up
