~Chapter 14~

~Hercules P.O.V~
I wake up to the sound of the breakfast bell. Not wanting to have to interact with many humans I make myself some breakfast. Cereal with milk and fresh fruit. Thomas hasn't gotten up yet so I knock on his door. When I don't get a reply I open the door. Thomas is asleep on the bed. Now I could have woken him up nicely but where's the fun in that? I sneak out of his bedroom grab my phone and find the Thomas the train theme song on YouTube. I turn the volume up and press play holding my phone close to Thomas. Thomas jumps up at te loud music playing beside him. I double over laughing before regaining myself. "Good morning my king" I say with a playful wink. "Hello peasant" Thomas replies. "Can I make you any breakfast?" I ask. "I'll just have whatever you had. Now go away I'm going to change." Thomas says playfully shoving me towards the door. "Your wish is my command." I say bowing before closing the door.

Breakfast was made and eaten and we had moved to the couch. I decide to build up the confidence to ask Thomas a question. "Hey Thomas." I say shyly. "Yes Herc?" He replies turning his attention to me. "What happened to your brother? What was he like?" I ask quickly. Thomas takes a deep breath in. "Well he was my twin. But French. H-h-he died in a car crash along with my mother coming to visit me in the hospital." I look at him for a bit before replying. "I know how you feel" "I'm sure you don't" He snaps back at me. "Oh I do. My cousin.....he died. He was more like a brother to me..... James and his stupid weak immune system." Thomas looks up at me. "I guess we aren't so different after all. How long ago did he die?" He asks softly. I think for a bit "Four years ago". Thomas doesn't say anything. He just crawls over and gives me a hug brogue asking softly "Wanna watch TV and sleep the entire day?" "Yeah" I say wrapping my arms around him. The rest of the day was chill spent in silence with only the sound of snoring and the TV.
