Poprocks & Coke (a JFK / Lee Harvey Oswald Fanfic)

14: Revolver

After trying to brainwash his uncle into liking his favourite band, Harvey went up to see if his dads had woken up yet, which he hoped, considering that it was now 07:35, and he'd been up for an hour and thirty-five minutes. He arrived at Jack and Lee's bedroom door, and just like he did getting into Bobby's office, he stood up on his tiptoes to grab the door handle and open the door, once in he seen Lee fixing Jack's tie, whilst trying to keep the latter awake.

"Nearly 50 and you're needing me to fix your tie. Jack...?". Jack just can't keep his eyes open, closing them every two seconds. Harvey is standing in the doorway waiting to be let into the room, Lee notices him standing patiently and says to him:

"Hey, kiddo, how long have you been up for?"

"Since six, and then I got Uncle Bobby up,"

"You don't need to be up that early,"

"Well, I can't tell the time yet, so I didn't know what time it was specifically. What's wrong with him?" Harvey Asks referencing to Jack who is standing with his head down, eyes shut quietly snoring, so basically standing sleeping.

"He's just tired because we stayed up late for you to meet everyone,"

"When do you think he'll wake up?"

"I'm not sure, do you want him to be up?"

"Well, yeah but if he's too tired then he doesn't need to if he doesn't want to,"

"But who will fill in for him?"

"I will!"

"Are you the Vice-President?"

"Nope, But isn't that what you're supposed to do?"

"Yeah, But you can help me, if you want,"

"Yay!"

"So, am I being President?" Asks Harvey as he follows Lee to the Oval Office

"If you want to you can be for a little while, but really it's me that's being the stand-in President, because that's what the Vice-President does," explains Lee. The two of them enter Jack's office and notice Robert and Bobby sitting, Bobby then says to Lee:

"Oh, look one half of the living dead is up. Where's Jack?"

"He's sleeping," replied Harvey

"So, Lee are you filling in for him?"

"No, it's me!" Harvey says excitedly

"You, really? Are you going to boss everyone around?"

"Yup," replies Harvey, popping the 'p'

"So, what do you want me to do, Mr. President?"

"Uh... I want you to go and get my rockets from my room, so I can put them on top of the desk,"

"I'm your Attorney General, Mr. President, not your housekeeper," jokes Bobby as he goes to Harvey's room to collect his miniature rockets. ( A/N Sherlock reference 😊). Bobby then returns with Harvey's little rockets as he had been demanded to collect.

"There you are, Harvey. Anything else I can get you?"

"Food!"

"You're not getting anything else just now, Harv you've already been fed, so wait a little while, okay?"

"You do know this isn't a hotel where you can phone room service and demand food and have it delivered at your every whim, okay?"

"Fine". After a while, Harvey got tired and Lee then stepped in to be the actual stand-in President for Jack.
