Us Monsters (Wip)

Chapter 27• one heart, two boys

On one particular morning, Lafayette and Thomas sat in their cell before anyone else was fully woken up, talking up a storm.

"But what im saying is-" Lafayette said to his roomate, before Hercules unexpectedly walked in.

"Sorry, didnt mean to cut you off." He apologized.

"Non, no need to apologize mon amou- ami." Lafayette said, remembering Thomas' billinguality at the last minute.

Looking back, the frenchman could see his roomate was definitly interested, cocking a brow and silently asking a million questions.

Hercules noticed it too, but not exactly in the same way.

"Uhm. I need you at the laundry room before work block today." Hercules said, making up an excuse.

"Okay." Lafayette says, turning back to his friend.

"See you after work, mon ami." He said.

"Mhmm. Dont have too much fun, you two." He said suspiciously, making Lafayette blush all kinds of red.

"See you after work, mon ami." He repeated, giving Thomas the stink eye.

"Love you, darlin." The southerner added sarcastically. Hercules looked back at this, to which Thomas waved sassily.

"You too, hun." He mouthed, chuckling as the couple left.

Hercules locked the room, Lafayette kissing him the first chance he got. But the guard pulled back, staring at the man.

"Whats up with your cellmate?" He asked suspiciously.

"Thomas? Mon cherie, hes harmless." Lafayette said, leaning forward and rolling his eyes.

"But just...whats with all the 'love you' stuff?" He added, showing a tad bit more concern than he thought he was.

"Thats just him." Lafayette dismissed, shrugging.

"But...you guys flirt all the time." Hercules said.

"Oh, mon Hercules. Are you jealous?" Lafayette asked, a smile on his face as he rested his hands on the mans chest.

"What? No." Hercules said, the statement coming out much less convincing than it was in his head. But Lafayette didnt ever seeme to mind the mans awkwardness. 

"Youre adorable." Lafayette whispered, kissing his nose. Hercules felt his hearr melt right then and there, holding his frenchman tight to his chest.

"And dont worry. Youre the only one for me." Lafayette added, looking up at the guard with those adorable big brown eyes of his.

Hercules smiled, leaning down slwoly and kissing him gently, both of their lips melting together until they werent sure where one of them ended and the other began.

Both men seemed to loose track of time, kissing each other and holding on tight as their two hearts began to beat as one.
