Reply- George Washington: Auto correct. I meant funny. 0 likes

Reply- Gilbert-Facebook-Won't-Let-Me-Put-My-Full-Name-Lafayette: it only auto corrects into the things you say the most... when do you say fucky?

I closed the laptop and smiled. "George, since I announced it to Facebook, do you think I should tell Mary?" He smiled.

"Lez go." He said, nudging me with his elbow.
      
I walked into the living room, where Mary was playing with some dinosaur toys. "Mary? We need to talk to you." I said, and she sat on George's lap.

"Mommy and daddy love each other very much, and when people love each other they have a baby. We thought we couldn't have babies, so we got you and we love you. But we can have one, so you'll have a brother or sister!"
    
She sat there, not understanding. "Oh, so you're getting another kid?" I nodded. "Oh, okay." She said, and grabbed her backpack.

"When do you want me to leave?" She asked sadly. George and I laughed. "We don't want you to leave!" She turned around.

"What? Don't you not want me anymore?" She said. "No!" Said George.

"We just want another one... Of you... Okay, I'm not good at words, but we want to keep you." She smiled.

"Okay. I don't want to leave you guys."

John's POV

"I'm sorry the debate didn't go so well, at least school is over in like... 72 hours." I said, trying to reassure Alex. He half-smiled.

"I guess."

"Come on, don't be like that! You're graduating! You can say you have an honors college degree! How cool is that?!" I said. Alex actually smiled, but then frowned.

"Who am I going to invite?"

Oh shit. Didn't even think of that. "Well, you can invite Martha, George, and Mary! They're practically my family, so they're practically yours." He laughed.

"Oh, so your family is my family?" I froze, and I could feel my checks getting hot. "W-well I didn't mean it like-" he laughed again.

"Relax, I'm just kidding." I let out a nervous laugh. "Yeah... Just kidding." I said.

~3 AM that night~

Alex got me thinking, who am I going to invite to graduation? I think... I think I'll try to invite my dad. Will he say no? Probably. Will I be able to say I tried?

Yes. I reluctantly dialed his number, and after three rings a female voice answered. "Hello?" She said.

"Hello? This is John Laurens. May I talk to Henry?"

After a minute of waiting he answered. "What do you want. You have thirty seconds." He said. "Hello da- Shit. I'm sorry, I mean Henry. Henry, I'm graduating tomorrow night. Would you like to come?"

He sighed. "John, I guess I have to spell it out for you. You're not my son, okay? I hate you, and I don't want you. I'm not the bad guy here, you are. You were the one who was gay, you were the one that keeps on wanting me. You were even the one that wouldn't let me beat Mary. She killed your mother, John."

"She didn't kill her! She was a baby!" I yelled. "Exactly, she died, what, a week after she was born? It's her fault. Anyway, we're talking about what makes you a shitty son, not her. You call me right as I'm with my wife,"

Wife? That's new. "And you disregard the simple rules. You're not my son. I don't want you. You hear me? I. Do. Not. Like. You. You're just a stupid fag. Have I made myself clear?"

"Y-yes." I choked out. I can't cry. Or let him know I'm crying, at least.

"Good. Now why don't you go molest some children or spray paint a church with the rainbow flag. Don't even talk to me." He said, and abruptly hung up.

Alex's POV

I heard screaming, and then crying coming from the hallway, and John was gone... he better not be murdered.

I tiptoed out. "John? John?" He was curled up in a blanket on the couch. I sat down next to him. "Well... I guess my dads not coming to the graduation!" He said, and started laughing.

"I'm sorry, John. But you have all the family you need right here! Hercules is the over-protective mom, Lafayette is the drunk uncle, Angie is the cool aunt, Eliza is the funny grandma, Peggy is the little cousin who's sometimes annoying but you love. Now, cue the cheesy music they use in Full House every time somebody hugs." I said, and he started laughing.

"So, what am I?" Asked Laurens. "You're the extremely hot boyfriend that everybody's like 'Dang! He's so out of Alex's league!'" I said, and put my arm around him.

"I hope you do know I love you though." He smiled. "I love you too." So we fell asleep on the puke green, uncomfortable, butt ass ugly couch, but it was still pretty damn cute.
