Johns POV
I woke up in Peggy's bed. My first thought was that I wanted to go home, then I remembered why I was there. I tried to keep my calm as I picked up my phone.
12 missed calls from 💕Prince Charming💕
I frowned, calling him back and bringing the phone back to my ear.
"Hello." He answered, he must've just woke up.

"Hey Alex," I sighed "do you want me to home?"

"Baby, of course I want you home. I'm so sorry."

"Okay, I'll come home right now. I love you."

"I love you more."

I stood up and walked into the living room, Peggy was asleep on the couch. I grabbed a piece of paper, scribbling a quick note down.
I'm going home, thanks for everything love ya.
I basically sprinted home, two miles. By the time I got there, there was sweat pouring from every square inch of my body and I was wheezing. I walked into the apartment to see Alex sitting in the kitchen, staring at the door. When he saw me he shot up from his seat and ran to me, throwing his arms around me and not letting go. When he let go of me, I grabbed the sides of his face and kissed him passionately. When we disconnected, he stared into my eyes with a look of extreme sadness.
"Alex," I smiled gently "I'm so sorry."

"You shouldn't be the one apologizing, I'm the real asshole in this. I'm so sorry baby."

"It's okay, I love you. And, I'll get a job, promise."

"Thank you so much." He smiled, grabbing my torso again and holding it tightly. We stood like this for a lot longer than it felt, Laf walked into the apartment with Herc and a ton of cardboard boxes. 

"Hey guys," Laf smiled "you doing okay?'

"Wonderful," Alex murmured into my shoulder. 

"I'm just gonna pack up my stuff, if you wanna help us." He replied, setting some of the boxes down. Alex moved his arms from around my waist, picking up the box labeled clothes. We asked Laf if we could take care of the clothes in his dresser and walked into his extremely clean and organized bedroom. I made my way over to his dresser and opened the top drawer. It, instead of clothes was full of sketch books and journals. I grabbed one of the sketch books and opened it, it was a drawing of Alex and I on our wedding day. I never knew that Laf was such a good artist. I walked back into the living room and grabbed the box labeled Journals. I walked back to his bedroom and began to load all of them into the box. 

When we had finished putting all of the journals into the box, we moved to the second drawer down, beginning to pack the folded clothes into the large cardboard box.  I took it upon myself to carry the boxes that we had packed out into the living room. Laf and Herc were on the couch making out instead of packing. 

"Hey guys, how's packing going?" I snickered as the two scrambled off of each other. Laf looked over to me to see the boxes I was holding, his eyes widened as he saw the small box that held the journals and sketch books. 

"You didn't look in them did you?" he asked defensively as he yanked the box out of my hands. 

"No, well, one but we just looked at one of your drawings, you're really good Laf." 

"Thanks," he smiled, a blush crossing his cheeks. 

"Babe, you draw?" Herc asked from behind us "and write in journals? That's so cool!" 

"Y- yeah, I've always done it, since I was like thirteen, I have all of them, even from way back then, they're really embarrassing though."

"Can we see some of your drawings?" We asked in unison as Alex walked out of Laf's bedroom. Laf looked extremely nervous as he pulled one of his newer sketch books out and began to flip through it. There were multiple portraits of Washington, Alex and I. 

"T-this one is from like, a year ago..." Laf explained. 

"Babe, these are amazing!" Herc smiled, wrapping his arms around the back of Laf's neck. We continued to flip through them for hours, eventually ending up finding the ones from when he was in high school, and even then he was amazing. I drew a little every once in a while, but mostly just sketches of Alex and Cupcake, since I love them both so much. 

A few hours passed, and we had finished packing everything up, Laf and Herc left with their last armfulls of boxes and it was just Alex and I, alone in our little apartment. I ended up falling on the couch and watching Netflix while Alex made dinner. 

"What'cha makin baby?" I yelled from the couch. 

"Spaghetti, that good?" 

"Perfect. Hey guess what?" I asked, smiling to myself. 

"What?" He replied, walking over to sit on the floor next to my head. 

"I love you!" I yelled in his face, laughing like a little kid. 

We finished the day off by eating our spaghetti and watching more Netflix, eventually falling asleep on the couch.
