Two broken souls (Lams)

Twenty two

John passed out of the floor in the dinning room, shit faced drunk. Hercules and Lafayette stayed up most of the night but soon fell asleep head on the table. Kenzie and Alex drank a little but weren't huge fans of the whiskey so they only had a small buzz. They ended up leaning up against a wall probably talking then ended up sleeping there. Trashbag ran around the room, playing, ripping up Alex's belongings like raccoons do.

Alex rubbed his eyes, standing up and looking around the house. His head pounded a little but nothing he couldn't handle. He looking down at Kenzie who was now slightly awake. Hercules and Lafayette were still passed out and John he didn't know where he was.

Out of the corner of his eyes he saw John laying face down in the ground. He made his way over to John to see if he was wake which he was not so he went upstairs to change and check on Trash bag. As he walked in Trash bag hid behind a ripped pillow causing Alex to laugh. "You little fucker." He started picking up the stuffing "well I guess it's more my fault. We will have to get you set up today." He says. Trash bag stared at him then layed back down falling asleep.

Alex changed into a black hoodie, blue jeans, and pulled his hair into a low bun. Once he was done he left the door cracked a little in case Trash bag wanted to go out. He probably won't since morning is the time they sleep but if he does then he can.

He walks back down the stairs to start picking up bottles and putting cups in the sink. The smell of whiskey burned the inside of his nose as he picked up each bottle. He never understood why people love this stuff so much. It's to strong and almost taste like nothing.

Kenzie groaned as she stood up, running her fingers through her hair as she looked at the mess. Then shook her head laughing "That was something." She said while starting to help Alex. Alex smiles "Yeah. Haven't done that in forever." He places a few cups in the sink. She looked over at John "He's not going to feel great when he wakes up." She says pointing at John. Alex shrugs "I don't think any of us feel good." She nods "true but I'm not the one who's passed out face in the floor." Alex laughed, shaking his head and turning on the water.

John shifted his body to lay on his back, arm over his stomach. "Fuck." He groaned, starting to sit up. "It's alive." Alex looked over at John laughing, walking over to him. He held a hand out "need some help?" He offered. John slapped Alex's hand "no I'm just fine." He started to stand but as he got in his feet he toppled over. Alex raised an eyebrow "sure." He grabbed John's hand helping him to his feet. He wobbled a little but leaned against Alex to steady himself. "What the hell happened last night." He said looking at everyone.

Alex rolled his eyes "you got shit face drunk, passed out there." He answered, putting an arm around John's shoulder. Kenzie looked at John "you probably drank about 12 shots." She said pointing back at the dirty dishes.

John leaned his hands in his knees, groaning "I'm dieing." Alex rolled his eyes "no your not. Let's get you to the couch to sit down before you fall over and do die." Alex helps John to stand straight again then walk over to the couch.

A few hours go by John fell back asleep and Hercules and Lafayette finally woke up. Kenzie and Alex took Trash bag shopping and to the vet.

The phone rang, Hercules looked at Lafayette. Lafayette shook his head "non mate." Hercules sighed then picked up the phone.
"Hello?" He said yawning
"Mulligan." Jefferson asked
Hercules took a breath "yes."
"Oh good I need to talk to you."
"Of course you do but right now is not the best timing."
"Mulligan we have a new person I need."
"And why can't you send I don't know Peggy to kidnap that one."
"Because she kidnapped the last one and your closer."
"Oh?"
"Do you happen to know a Mister John Laurens?"
Hercules froze, gulping "yes." His voice shaky
"Perfect do you think you could bring him to Phoenix Arizona?"
Hercules stood up, closing his eyes and running his fingers through his hair "Yes sir."
"Good good see you by Monday then?"
Hercules looked at the calendar, today was Friday "of course."
Then phone hangs up.

Hercules looks at Lafayette wearing a face of worry. "What is it?" Lafayette asks. "Jefferson. He said he needs John." Hercules sits back down.

"We can't turn him in." Lafayette says
"I know but if we don't then him Alex you and I would end up dead in a ditch."
"Can't we-" Lafayette gets cut off
"No there's nothing to do except bring John there and just plan a way to escape if needed. Trust me."

Lafayette shook his but finally gave in, thinking hoping he can trust Hercules judgement "Fine but how are we going to get there." Hercules looks at the time "Should we just get going tomorrow cause im not driving or flying." Lafayette nods
