I am using Google Translate, I am honestly terribly sorry if the French is wrong.

I woke up again. Guess I fell asleep on Twitter. Anyways, I was woken up by my ringtone, I was getting a call from an unknown number? Well, what harm would it do to just answer it?

"Bonjour, may I ask who this is?" I was still a bit groggy from sleep, so my voice was weird.

"Why hello Lafayette, I see you're up early! Well, Laurens and I wanted to invite you and Herc to the cafe. Say, around 7 o' clock? Is that alright?"

"Why oui, of course. Your name is Alex, non?"

"Yes, I already told Hercules. And don't worry, once he let's you, you'll be able to call him Herc soon, or any nickname. See you soon."

"Goodbye Mon Ami!"

We hung up at the same time. I looked at the clock, 6:00 a.m. Wow the time zone differences are weird.

Well, might as well do something. I got up from my bed, wishing I could stay in it. After a few minutes of stumbling around, trying to find something to do, I finally decided to take a shower. I walked in the small, but cozy bathroom. Well, Hercules I guess had the same idea as he was getting out of the shower, nude. I felt a blush growing on my cheeks.

"Oh my, I'm so sorry Mon amour!" I shouted at him, slightly embarrassed. My second day here and I already saw my crush naked. Anyways, I bolted out the door and slamming it shut. I threw myself on the bed and pulled the covers over my head.

"Wait, wait. What the- What did you just call him? You just called him your love! Uuuuggghhh" I started to mumble to myself in French. I realllllllly hoped he didn't know French. If he did, I was totally screwed. A few minutes later, Hercules came out of the bathroom, confused and blushing, fully dressed.

Hercules POV

"Um hey. What was that you said to me in the bathroom?" I said, trying to act like I didn't hear him call me his love in French. Oh yeah, I know French.

"Oh, yeah. I called you Mon Ami, why?"

"Okay! I thought I heard something else, well, I'll see you when you get out, I suppose you wanted to take a shower, no?" I don't think he knows I know French yet. Might as well have some fun.

Lafayette's POV

"Yeah, see ya then." I giggled while saying that. What the fuck Laf? I grabbed some clothes and hurried in the bathroom.

"Je l'aime" I whispered to myself in French. I guess it was a bit too loud because I heard Herc laugh. Weird. Anyways, time to take a shower. I got in, oblivious to there being no towel. It felt great, the hot water coming down on me. ((Bet that won't be the only thing coming down on you that you'll like))

-time skip to end of shower-

I got out, noticing there was no fucking towel.

"Pourquoi est-ce que vous ne remarquez que?!!!" I yelled to myself. As if on cue, Herc walked in with closed eyes, with a towel for me. Odd. I hope he didn't know French.

-Time skip brought to you by those super weird TV commercials to Hercules and Lafayette talking-

"So Mulligan, tell me, what kinda languages do you speak?"

"English and French. Why?" He replied in his sweet, but strong voice.

I mentally slapped myself. He knows French. Great.

"Just wondering. We should probably get to the cafe now, non?"

"Yeah. Let's go"

Hercules POV

I 'acdentally' slipped my hand in his. We both didnt act to try to change it. It felt good, and I was loving every single second of it. However, we got to the cafe sooner than I would have liked. We found a booth with all of our friends in it. Well, my friends, soon to be Lafayettes too. I wanted to share everything with him...

"Awww, does Hercules like someone?" Angelica taunted me, noticing me holding Lafs hand. I quickly let go his hand. Every one at the booth was watching me and Lafayette. He was staring at a picture on the wall of one of our founding fathers, Lin-Manuel-Miranda.

"Ppff, what? No. That's stupid. You're stupid" I grumbled like a kid. The Schuyler sisters were there, so was Madison, Laurens and Hamilton. Also Maria Reynolds. She was like, in love with Peggy. She was nonstop staring at her.

"Whatever Herc, you so are. You're so helpless for him." She giggled, followed by Eliza's giggles, then everyone else's giggles, except for Lafayette.

"Hey Angie, can I talk to you for a second?"

"Yeah, sure Herc."

I pulled her around to the 'bar' area of the cafe. So no one would hear me.

"I kinda like.....

A/N

Ooooh, spoopy cliffhanger. What will happen next? Will Hercules confess to Angelica his hot burning lust for Lafayette? Or will he tell her he likes a video game?

Alright, I'm sorry if there's any spelling errors, wattpads being a dick. See ya dooods!!💙
