Hamilton High School AU 33
John came upstairs soon after and scooped him up, holding him close and rocking him. "What happened?.. Are you okay?"
"I'm a jealous dirt bag.." he muttered. He didn't want him to think that Mary had done anything wrong, it was supposed to be all in good fun, but he had to tell him how he felt. "I'm just so used to you saying I'm the cute one. It's stupid and dumb and I.." He paused for a bit. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.."
John frowned and cupped Alexander's face. "Hey.. Breathe. It's okay, I'm right here for you. I didn't mean to hurt you, you are cute to me. You're my boyfriend and I love you so much." He kissed his forehead. "You have my complete attention right now."
"I just feel bitchy... Mary didn't do anything and I just.. I.. Stupid moments!"
"Hey, hey.. It's okay. Deep breaths, Alexander."
Alexander nodded and took deep breaths with John, feeling himself calming down. He sat up after a minute and kissed him, wrapping his arms around his neck and resting his forehead against John's as he pulled away. "I'm sorry.. I didn't mean to have a moment like this.."
"I know. I understand." He pecked his lips. "Have you been taking your medicine?.."
Alexander frowned and grabbed the tube from his backpack, knocking back a pill with some water. "I think I forgot yesterday.. But not on purpose, I promise."
"I believe you. I was just asking. You're trying and that's all that matters."
Alexander smiled and put the tube back in his backpack. They'd done wonders for his usually erratic mood lately. "So.. What did your siblings say?..." He knew getting their approval was crucial.
"They were just worried and wanted to make sure you're okay." He kissed his forehead. "We can stay here as long as you need."
Alexander smiled and shook his head. "I think Mary would break my neck if I stole you for too long.."
John's phone buzzed and he checked to find messages from Hercules coming through.
[Herc: yo] [Herc: my parents are throwin a sort of 'welcome home ma' thing 2moro nite] [Herc: you guys in?] [Herc: wait im dumb] [ Herc added Alex to the chat ]
Alexander's phone began to buzz in sync with John's now.
[Herc: party @ mine 2moro] [Herc: bring booze :P] [Herc: also sorry in advance for my terrible, terrible parents]
[Laf: Ooh! Sounds like fun!]
[John: I'm down.]
John smiled. "I think it sounds fun. We can be here for the rest of the day and the day after or find something to do with all of my siblings."
[Laf: Can't wait to get drunk with my friends again ๐Ÿ’—]
[John: You're such a sap.]
[Laf: You hush.] [Laf: Can I bring Rosie, please?]
[Herc: I'd be offended if you didn't bring her, kitten! <3]
[Alex: r u calin laf kiten or rosy?]
[Herc: I dont think I called anyone 'kiten' ]
[Alex: u suck] [Alex: OMG] [Alex: LAF] [Alex: bring moer of teh wine frm last tiem if u hve any ๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’—] [Alex: it was so goooood]
[Laf: I don't, but I can definitely find another good bottle.]
[Herc: Dad says he's got whiskey and cola if u guys want some]
[Alex: ew]
[Herc: ma's got prosecco?]
[Alex: i forgt how much i love ur mom]
[Laf: You can bring that vodka you were hiding in your room.] [Laf: Unless I wasn't supposed to mention it.] [Laf: Then nevermind.]
[John: Now its sounding like a party.] John chuckled and turned to Alexander with a devious grin. "Hiding vodka in your room? Such a rebel." He teased, repeating what Alexander had texted him during class. "If Laf wasn't supposed to tell me, I could keep it quiet for a kiss." He wiggled his eyebrows playfully and leaned in for a kiss.
[Alex: dam it laf] [Alex: sfine tho] [Alex: #canttameme]
[Herc: hah!] [Herc: Did you use fake id to get it? ;)]
[Alex: No, i told them i was ur son, buyin it 4 his old man]
[Herc: ...touche] [Herc: Jack's gonna be wrecked <3] Alexander laughed at the conversation before turning to John. "What are you gonna do? Tell the teacher?" He smirked back, mirroring John's response before granting him that sweet kiss. He lingered his lips lovingly over John's for a few seconds more than usual before grinning into them and pulling back. "Is my deep, dark secret safe?"
John smiled and kissed back, cupping Alexander's cheek gently. "Your secret's safe. For now. But you owe me more kisses later, once I don't have four kids waiting downstairs for me. Right now, what do you say to going downstairs with them and getting some food?"
[Laf: Glad you're not upset! : D] [Laf: I give it ten minutes before John will be wasted.]
[John: You guys need to fuck off.] .
[Herc: We did that last time and you guys complained ;D]
[ Alex has left the chat ]
[ Herc added Alex to the chat ]
[Alex: dnt traumaties me!] Alexander shoved his phone into his pocket before nodding to John's suggestion.
[Laf: : O] [Laf: Herc has no shame!] [Laf: And neither do I!] [Laf: I was the most sober one and I clearly remember John banging on the door and asking us to stop about halfway through.]
[John: I] [John: was] [John: drunk!] [John: So shut up!]
[Laf: Whats the fun in that? : P]
[John: We'll see you guys tomorrow.] He put his phone in his pocket and held Alexander's hand as he led him downstairs. "Pizza time!" He gave everyone a plate of pizza and they ate in the living room, the kids putting on Moana and John singing along to every song like a kid.
Mary sat up on the couch with Alexander, everyone else on the floor. "Are you okay?"
Alexander nodded. "Of course. John made me feel better." He smiled. "You've got the best big brother in the world."
"I know." She smiled proudly.
Alexander returned the smile and kept eating as he watched the movie, occasionally rubbing his leg against John's side to say 'I'm happy you're here' without being too mushy.
After another minute, Mary couldn't stop herself from asking, "Why does dad hate Johnny so much?.. All he did was like a boy.."
It took a lot of self-restraint for Alexander not to go on a rant about how much of a homophobic ass their father was, but it wasn't up to him to tell her. "Things are complicated.. They won't always be like that, but you have to be strong for him right now."
Mary nodded, accepting that answer. "Okay.. You'd better take care of him until then..."
Alexander smiled. "Of course. But.." He upped his volume since the movie was over. "Does that mean I can't kick his butt at Super Smash Bros?"
John grinned and turned around, the other boys already turning the game on. "I'm going to destroy you."
"We'll see about that," he shrugged as he stretched, smiling at the empty plate in his lap. He only ate one slice, but progress was progress.
John took the plates to the sink and put the pizza in the fridge before coming back and sitting beside Alexander, kissing his cheek.
The boys gave them both a controller and let them duke it out, wanting to watch before joining.
"Promise to love me after I destroy you?" Alexander teased as he chose Jigglypuff.
"I would if you had a chance," John shot back, choosing Kirby before starting the game. For the most part, he only attacked when he had a weapon, button mashing the fan seeming to be his favorite, or when Alexander was weak enough to just be thrown off the side, in which case he just spat his character off the edge of the stage. "So close, but so far." He grinned before leaning in for a kiss.
"Says Mr B-down Kirby," Alexander whined, refusing to give John a kiss in mock heartbreak. "Woe is me," he sighed dramatically. "I'm left so defeated, I can hardly look at you. Mary will have to be my new best friend."
"Yay!"
John pouted, but he couldn't stop himself from smiling as Alexander got along with his baby sister. "You're just going to replace me like that? If you're too tired to kiss, the least you can do is let me kiss you," he whined in response before draping himself over Alexander, covering his face in a flurry of kisses.
Alexander laughed before finally letting himself kiss John, smiling lovingly as he did. "Alright, I guess you can still be my best friend. Only because you buy me food." He glanced over at Mary. "You're a close second, though."
She, like the boys, pretended to be heartbroken, groaning. "I guess that's okay."
John chuckled and kissed Alexander again, catching him off guard.
And he was never going to stop loving when he did that. He knew it. But he was a bit embarrassed being around John's siblings. "We're going to gross out your brothers."
"They're all zoned out. They'll be fine." John smiled and kissed Alexander's cheek. "Besides, I've got you trapped." At some point, he had, in fact, trapped Alexander under his weight, though he was careful not to hurt him.
Alexander rolled his eyes playfully and let John be, taking his word for it.
Before long, at least, before what felt like long, all four kids were asleep on the floor and the two older guys were close behind.
"I'll get them up to bed. You go and wait for me." John pecked Alexander's lips one last time before letting him free. He got his siblings one-by-one and put them all in bed, making sure Alexander was upstairs resting as he did. He smiled when he saw him fast asleep in his bed and did one more check on his siblings, finding Martha sitting up, now wide awake.
"Hey.. You okay?.."
She shook her head, tears falling from her eyes.
John frowned and shut the door behind him, going towards her and sitting right in front of her. "What's wrong?.."
"You're going to have to go again.." she whimpered, leaning towards him. "I'm so tired..."
John held her close, cradling her like she was three years old again and he was seven, both adjusting to their new lives. "I'm so sorry.. You are so strong..."
"I'm not as strong as you.. Nothing bad even happens anymore and I can't take it sometimes.. I just want to be a kid.."
"I know.. I'm so sorry.. I promise things will get better. I promise you'll be able to be a kid. You don't have to burden yourself so much.. They're all older than we both know and you know that..."
"I miss mom.."
John held her closer, unable to stop a few tears from hitting her head. "So do I.."
The pair stayed like that, using each other's strength until they both ran out and fell asleep. Early the next morning, John woke up and kissed Martha's forehead before going back to his room and laying with Alexander, sleeping for another few, peaceful hours. Peaceful.. He'd have to take advantage of that.
Naturally, Alexander was the first to wake up after that. He smiled as he saw John's sleeping, peaceful face and took it in for a minute, kissing his forehead. He slowly sat up and got up, wincing lightly as his injured leg felt the pressure of his weight. He took a deep, silent breath and got to his feet, going to the bathroom and taking a quick shower before going downstairs and making breakfast. John did it for him so often, it was only fair. He smiled and made some eggs and bacon, then took the plate up to John's room. He sat beside him and kissed his cheek, gently waking him up. "Hey.. Rise and shine, sleeping beauty.."
John woke up easily and smiled at Alexander, kissing his cheek. "Is that for me?.."
"Yep. I wanted to make you breakfast."
"Thank you." He sat up and ate his breakfast, giving some to Alexander. When he finished, he kissed Alexander's cheek and got up. "Alright. I've had breakfast from my amazing boyfriend, now I'm back to being a spoiling older brother." He went downstairs with Alexander trailing behind him and began going around, making breakfast for the other four Laurens.
Alexander watched him dash expertly around the kitchen. It was as if he never left. And it was heartbreaking. How anyone could tear him away from that, he'd never know. No wonder he was so eager to keep things to himself. His siblings seemed happy as they came downstairs and ate and, to John, that must've been worth the world.
By the time he finished, Alexander began texting in the group chat again.
