@CharminglyWild (c) 〝 George, this is Monsieur Henri de Segur. he’s Segur’s father. 〞

@CharminglyWild (c) Washington’s lower back, leans into his space——its made clear that though he’s there in the name of first love, his heart has found a new devotion. George is not something he’ll cast aside for the other man’s comfort; he could mourn Segur ﹠ respect his husband in turn. (c)

⠀ 〝 oui, Monsieur, 〞says Lafayette into his airpods, slipping his hoops into his ears. 〝 nous venons toujours. bisous, a bientôt! 〞 hanging up the phone, he glances over at @CharminglyWild. 〝 did you put Georges in those dress shoes i bought him, cher .ᐣ 〞 ⠀

@CharminglyWild (c) in the right direction. 〝 i’m not selfish for wanting a career. i’m not a bad parent, i just made a mistake. a mistake that i still have time to fix for him. will you. . . will you help me talk to him .ᐣ 〞

@CharminglyWild (c) once we explained your job to him, he learned to expect your absence——i should’ve known that 𝘪’𝘥 need to do the same thing ﹠ prepared him better. but. . . but you’re also right. 〞he sits up a little straighter. leave it to George to say the right words, to nudge him (c)

⠀ fashion week is coming to an end and like every year, Lafayette struggles to transition from the fashion world to normalcy. he places dinner for both @CharminglyWild and Georges. but there doesn’t seem to be food for himself. 〝 see, i made your favorite, Georges. 〞 ⠀

@CharminglyWild (c) at me like that and 𝙠𝙞𝙨𝙨 𝙢𝙚. 〞

@CharminglyWild (c) him; the somber tension from earlier dissipating with a playful laugh. 〝 oh, no need to look so smug, 〞he whispers, leaning close so that their words can be theirs alone.〝 you knew that you’d been on my mind the entire time, in every way imaginable. now quit smiling (c)

⠀ 〝 c’est Daddy .ᐟ 〞shouts a little voice the second they’re through the door, tiny legs kicking to be put down. Lafayette sets him on his feet to go embrace @CharminglyWild while he wrestles their belongings in the door. 〝 careful, ma crevette, he’s still hurt .ᐟ 〞 ⠀
