Alex's POV

I woke up on an bed... I've never been on this bed before.

I sat up to hear what was going on, the door was closed and I'm too short to open it

I pressed my ear against the door and heard screaming and singing

What?

"Whoo! Let's go!" I think john yelled and I started to knock on the door

Hercules POV

I let John and Lafayette go crazy for 3 hours, not knowing how to stop them, until they calmed down and stoped yelling/ singing non stop.

I heard banging and I followed the noise to the my room

"Hello?" I asked, the banging continued

I opened the door and seen Alex, he attempted to jump on me, I picked him up

"Pfft! I forgot we brought you home!"

I brought him to the living room where john yelling at Lafayette to get up on the table and Lafayette laying face down on the ground

"Asleep?" Alex asked and I shook my head no

"You sure?" He asked again and I nodded "I wake him up anyways!"

"No alex I don't think that's a good id-" and before I could finish he started jumping on Lafayette's back

"What the hell!- mon ami! Bonjour!"

He finally stopped and let Laf breathe, I glanced over to see john laying on the table

"I think john is out of it, ha" Laf laughed and alex got confused, "you're probably right, I'll take care of him" I said and picked him up, putting him on my shoulder on the opposite side where Alex was

Johns POV

I woke up to alex yelling in my ear

"Ow! What?!" I shouted due to being startled Alex gasped gently and then he started crying, "no! Please don't cry! What do you need? I'm sorry!" I asked and alex sniffed

"I hungry! I want food!" He yelled and got up

"What do you want?.." "Food?!"

When he stepped foot out the door and Laf scared him by picking him up so he almost started to cry again.

"So you know jefferson right?" He asked and I nodded "well... He said he'd come and feed Alex soon"

"But I hungry nooooowwww" alex complained as he kicked his legs around

"But i think he's gonna bring mac-n-cheese!" Laf said excited and alex looked at me with confusion.

"He's not even close to where we are at all, how'd you contacted him?" I asked, "no time to fight logic, mon ami! The child is hungry!"

"Ok...Where herc?" Alex asked and started wiggling around again "sleeping on the couch"

Alex ran in Hercules room and started throwing things, I gasped

"Alex don't! We understand your hungry but there's no point in that, is there?" I asked, Lafayette was holding back laughs

"But I'm hungry! I want food!"

Alex went around the room chanting "I want food! I want food!" Over and over again, I face palmed

"This is the kid we're taking care of" I whispered the Lafayette, he snickered

"Yeah, But he's the best. Don't you agree mon ami?"Lafayette asked, I nodded "it's true. Painful, but true"

Alex picked up a coloring book and threw it at us, I dodged but it hit Lafayette's stomach. He broke out laughing

"Why does Hercules, a 20 year old man, have coloring books in a his room?!" I shouted loudly, causing Lafayette to laugh even harder

Alex threw more stuff at us, until he picked something up that Hercules would sob over for weeks of it had gotten broken.

Lafayette stopped laughing immediately, worry filled his face. Same happened to me

"Alex" Lafayette smiled a fake smile "lets put that down and we'll go get food right now, ok?" Lafayette bribed, Alex thought but threw it at Lafayette like a speed ball

How does a 3 year old throw so good?!

Lafayette acted quickly and before it hit him and caught it, he gave an angry look at Alex then put the thing on a shelf that Alex couldn't reach. We need to ask Hercules what that thing is and why it's so important

"Alex, honey. You don't throw things that are other people's" Lafayette said calmly, then I cut in "or you'll go in timeout"

Alex nodded, and whimpered at the word "timeout" then proceeded to clean up the mess he made.
