Chapter Four
Alexander was now sitting in his new apartment, nodding as John ran through the house rules.
"So, we've added your chore routine onto our chart that you may have noticed. It's by the balcony." John said. Balcony was a nice word for it. It was at least five metres in width but only a metre hanged off the apartment. The door was sliding glass and was surprisingly well polished. Alex wondered whose job that was.
"Any questions?"
Oh no, John had been speaking. Quick, think of a smart response! "Uhm, maybe?" Damn, that was smooth, well done, Alex!
John smiled. "What's your question?"
"I stopped listening, could you repeat everything after the chore thing being by the balcony?"
Hercules snickered from the kitchen where he was cooking breakfast. John rolled his eyes.
"What I was saying was that laundry day is on Sundays, we eat dinner at 8 pm most nights and Friday is Dungeons and Dragons, which we play at 8:30. Got that?" Sighed the freckled man.
Alex nodded properly. "Gotcha."
Lafayette left his room, looking as though he had put on eyeliner. Yep, he'd put on eyeliner. The french-man waltzed up to Hercules and kissed his cheek smugly. "Mon amour," He said gently. Hercules laughed.
"Woah, wait, you guys are gay?" Alex asked frowning.
Hercules's' mood shifted quickly. "You got a problem with that? We can get Washington to kick you out if you do."
Alex paled, shaking his head rapidly as he remembered how hard this place was to find. "No, no! I-I was just a little surprised!" He lowered his head shamefully. "I kinda thought I'd be the only queer one..."
"You're gay?" John asked, startled.
"Nah, I'm bisexual. Bit of both, y' know?" Answered Alex with a smile. "How about you, Johnny boy? Are you a rainbow man or filled with grey?"
John laughed lightly. "I'm gayer than those two put together! Gayer than those two and JeffMads!"
"JeffMads?" Alex frowned, confused.
"It's our ship name for James and Thomas. They're obviously together, even if James is seriously shy about it sometimes." Explained Hercules. "It's also deadly cute. I think the only other ship that tops it is Eliza and Maria."
Lafayette nodded vigoursly. "Mes amies lesbiennes! Ces deux filles sont adorables."
Alex frowned. "I don't speak french..."
"Well, you're going to have to learn, aren't you?" Mocked Laf, smirking.
