Philip POV

I get home from George's place and only Pa's home. It's a Saturday which is weird cuz Dad doesn't work on weekends. "Hey, I'm home. Where's dad?" I ask.

"Uh I'm not sure where he's staying," Pa replies.

"What do you mean? Why isn't he staying here" I ask confused.

"He made a drunken mistake to put it simply but I'm sure he'll be home soon. Anyways I need to tell you something, it's the reason we wanted you to stay at George's last night." He starts, I nod. "Well you know how Eliza was sick and wasn't supposed to live past 26? Well S-She, passed away yesterday." He chokes up on the last bit.

"Wait what?" I ask, taken aback by what he just said.

"Y-Yesterday, She was in the hospital and when we all got there she got to say goodbye but then...." He sobs.

I don't know what to say, Last time I saw her she was so happy and perky. "When will dad be home?" I ask after a minute. I don't wanna talk about it. She was basically my auntie.

"I don't know" He sighs. I just nod and go up to my room.

Alex POV

*A few hours later*

I don't know how Philip's taking all this, He doesn't really wanna talk about it, well at least not with me. I don't really know why but he always talks to John when he's sad or upset or something like that. I hear a knock on the door and go down to get it.

I open the door and John standing there. "John I already told you-" I start but he cuts me off.

"-I know but I have no where to go. I obviously can't stay with Laf and Herc and Peggy and Angelica said they just wanna be alone right now. So please can I stay here, even just on the couch?" He begs.

"Fine, but Philips already in bed so don't wake him up also I told him about Eliza" I say and start walking back to my room.

"Ok. And Alex, Thank you." He says, I nod and walk into my room.

*The next day*

Philip POV

I walk downstairs into the living room, I turn on the TV and turn around and see someone on the couch "AHH!" I yell which wakes them up, they roll over and I see it's dad. "Dad why the fuck are you on the couch?" I ask.

"Uhh cuz the girls wanna be alone and I'm not aloud to stay at Laf and Herc, now you have a TV in your room why don't you go use it instead of this on?" He groans.

"What happened between you, Laf and Pa?" I ask.

"What makes you think anything happened?" He replies.

"Well he said you made a drunk mistake, he didn't know where you were stay and didn't really care, If your not allowed to stay with Laf and Herc it's probably because something happened with you and Laf cuz Laf would always let you stay with him and also the obvious fact that your on the couch not in your bed." I explain.

"Alright Sherlock, Me and Laf just got really drunk and insulted them both real badly so he's still kinda upset about it." He tried to reason. I know he's lying, I think for a moment.

"Holy shit you cheated on Pa with Lafayette?!" I exclaim.

"What the fuck? John wasn't it obvious I didn't want you to tell him?" Pa says he walks downstairs.

"I didn't! The kids a freaking sociopath!" Dad says defensively.

"Wait It's true? Dad why the fuck would you do that?" I ask, I don't know why I'm upset I just am.

"Pip, I didn't have any control over what I was doing and I was drunk and our drinks were drugged!" He exclaims, sitting up.

"Why the fuck were you with just Lafayette in the first place where were the rest of us?" Pa yells more than asks.

"How am I supposed to know?! All I know is I was mad at you and wanted to leave when you started yelling at Seabury to stay away from me." Dad shouts back.

"Guys-" I try to cut in but they ignore me.

"What about Peggy, and Angelica and Hercules? Why wasn't Lafayette with his husband?! They've never fought but I bet you changed that!" Pa replies.

Dad stands up and walks around the couch so the only thing separating them is the kitchen island. "How the fuck is it my fault they're fighting? Like I said like 100 times OUT DRINKS WERE DRUGGED! Saying had control over what I was doing is like saying you could have stopped your mum from dying!"

"Don't fucking bring my mum into this! You could have watched the bar tender poor the drink! Or better yet you could have not gotten drunk!" Pa yells.

"Ok just pretend I'm not here then." I sigh.

"I didn't get the drink! Lafayette said he was getting us another round and came back with two drinks and you were also drunk! Why the fuck would I go to a bar and not get drunk?!" Dad shouts.

"You could have just not gone to the bar!"

"The fuck was I supposed to do?! You said you don't fucking love me so instead of getting mad I got drunk! What's the difference between that and you ignoring your problems by working?!"

"The difference it I didn't mean it! I was fucking upset and you weren't helping!"

"I'm your fucking husband! You could have just fucking talked to me you think I wasn't upset?! Your making the exact same argument I am! Maybe it's better if I just move out, you kick me out ever second say either way over the stupidest shit ever!"

"Fine leave! Do whatever you want! Take all your fucking shit from my room and go life with Lafayette or someone else you've fucked!"

"May I remind you other than you Lafayette is the only person I've consensually fucked and it doesn't even count cuz I was drugged! You should have stayed in the Caribbean!"

"Go to hell Jack!" Dad freezes. Pa freezes.

Dad runs out of the house. "What just happened?" I ask.

"You know how John's dad abused him? Well John's dad's middle name is jack and it's also John's real name but he goes by John because he dad would always call him jack so it's kinda a trigger for him." Pa sighs.

"Why y'all lives so complicated?" I ask.

"I don't even know, I'm gonna go try to find you dad so I'll hopefully be back soon with him." He says and walks out.

A/N So I only have one other bigish thing planned so there'll only be a couple more chapter unless I think of anything else.
