TW: cussing but I guess that's normal

John's POV-

"JOHN FUCKING LAURENS?!" The girl repeated again.

"SALLY FUCKING HEMMINGS?!" I mocked and smiled.

"It's been so long!" Sally came around the bar and hugged me tight. " I GET TO SEE MY GAY SON AGAIN!!!" She screamed.

"Your son?" Herc crossed his arms and made his way towards us. "Me and Laf adopted these kids." He said, gesturing to Alex, me, Peggy and Maria. 

"He was my son first!" Sally screamed.

"And now he is mine!" Herc yelled.

I sighed and stepped up in between them. "I'm nobody's. Though, I am Herc's child." I laughed. "Sorry, Sally."

"You're Alex's." Peggy smirked.

"The fuck, guys." I exclaimed.

"What!?" Sally gasped. "Who taught my child to swear?" 

"Uhm..." I looked at her. "You."

"A very nice influence for my child." Herc snarled.

"I'm no one's-"

"My child!"

"Quiet!" I chuckled. "And Herc, don't tell me you're lying that you were also a bad influence to me."

Sally gasped and wrapped her arms around me. "YOU!?"

"Chillax...He only brought me to the bar once..."




"A week." I laughed.

"What!?" She screamed, once more.

"Don't worry, that was just high school-"

"YOU BROKE THE LAW!" Sally...tend to follow rules. But if you know her as well as me, she's not... exactly like that. She held me closer. The group gave us weird looks.

"I'm not trying to seduce him. I'm straight as John." She laughed.

"You're my child now!" Herc smiled and hugged Sally. "Welcome to the..." Herc turned around and counted. "One, two, three, four, five, and a half..."

He finally stated, "The 5 and a Half gays!" He laughed.

"Nice to meet y'all!" Sally grinned. "Jack, let's talk later when my shift is over."

I nodded and headed back to the table, utterly forgetting my drink.

"Who's that...?" Eliza asked, curious.

"Oh. That's my childhood friend back in South Carolina, before I moved up here to New York." I smiled.

"She seems... Nice." Angelica said.

"Oh, believe me, once you get to know her, she's nothing like that." I laughed.


Once Sally's shift was over - and we all got our drinks - she came over and sat between me and Hercules.

"Hi, y'all. As you probably know, I'm Sally Hemmings." She waved to all of us.

"Hercules Mulligan." Herc smiled.
