Angsty Herc, Laf, and Peggy

Hercules put his head in his hands when she was gone, and said, "I don't get you two. You're like, friends with benefits! You're all friendly and go on dates and act like friends and the only romantic thing you do is in private! You don't even lean on each other. It's stupid! I don't get how you can date a girl. They need so much more care, and attention, and getting them dressed is like dressing a cat it takes forever and they don't want it to happen. They have long hair that is horrible to take care of." Lafayette winced at this. "And all they worry about is their looks. Like makeup is the world, and they fuckibg wasye money, and ther are all sensitive and expect you to do everything. How do you stand her!? She's HORRIBLE! She's a spoiled rich girl who can't accept her fathers money, and passes that off as being kind. She loves jewelry and make up an-" his voice cracked, and he realised he was standing up and shouting at Lafayette. He was crying as well.
Lafayette stared at him in shock. "I.. Herc, I didn't know you felt this way, I- I'm- Je suis désolé"[i'm sorry] he said softly, and stood up to put his hand on Her shoulder. He pulled the tall male into a hug, and said. "I'm sorry..."
Hercules looked at Lafayette, and bit his lip to stop himself. 'No... he is dating someone... you can't' he thought to himself, but did what he wanted anyways. He kissed Lafayette deeply. He had wanted to do this for a very, very long time. He had only broke up with Lafayette because Lafayette seemed to be falling for other people, and he felt like he was trapping him. What surprised him was when Lafayette kissed him back.
Lafayette knew it was wrong, but it felt so right. Kissing Hercules made him nostalgic, and eight now he felt all the emotions he did when they were dating. He deepened the kiss, pushing him against the table. And then Peggy walked in.
Peggy had left her scarf at the boy's house. Oh yeah, did i mention it's fall? Anyways, she had a key to their house, so she just walked in. "Hey guys, sorry for just walkin- o-oh" she said, noticing Lafayette and Hercules kissing against the table. The color left her face, and she just stood there. A million thoughts rushed through her head. 'How long have the been doing this? Has Luffy been cheating on me for 2 whole years?' And 'is this why Gerc was so pissed? Because he caught me with his boyfriend?' But she was interrupted by a gasping Lafayette. "P-Peggy- I- this isn't- i just-"
Lafayette was stumbling over his words, and was horrified. He knew it was wrong. He shouldn't have kissed him back, he should have just pulled away. "I-it's fine..." he heard Peggy whisper, and noticed the tears pouring out of her eyes. He knew she was emotional, and couldn't stand to think the awful thoughts going through her head. "You two love each other, right? Well... i" her voice caught, and she wiped at her eyes. The tears kept coming though. "I'm breaking-" she tried to continue, but let out a small sob. "I'm breaking up, with, y-yo-" she didn't finish the last word before she was interrupted by Hercules.
He felt shitty. He felt shitty and horrible and bad. He never though a kiss could make him feel this way. Peggy and Lafayette were breaking up because of him, and it was all his fault. "Peggy, no." He said to the now sobbing girl. "I-it's my fault. I stupidly kissed him to make me feel better. It was selfish."
Peggy felt dead. She felt dead, and sad, and like she was dying. "Y-yeah.." she said, trying to stop sobbing. "B- bu- b- but he liked it." She said, looking at Herc with tears rolling down her cheeks. "I- I can't-tell. He li-likes kissing you" she said before sobbing into her hands. Just admitting that made her feel even more empty. "P-peggy..." she heard Lafayette say.
Lafayette was lost. So many different things were happening, and he didn't like any of them. "I, but, i this isn't what i, i, c'était un baiser inutile ... Herc est un si bon embrasseur, et c'était si bon. Mais je ne l'aime pas, ma belle ... je t'aime--"[it was a useless kiss... Herc is just such a good kisser, and it felt so good. But i don't love him, my lovely... i love you--] he rambled in french, not sure what to do.
Neither Hercules of Peggy could understand what Lafayette was saying.
