Shots shots shots shots!
Alex stretches, sitting in the booth while he waits for his friends. He and Laurens were the first two out the door once seven hit. Maria stayed home, she didn't like to drink.
"How many drinks are we getting?" Laurens grins, and Alex rolls his eyes.
"I'm not getting any drinks, since aparently I have to be the responsible adult here."
"Responsible adult, Alexander? You don't even look like an adult." Thomas shoves him over, sitting down in the booth with Madison and Lafayette.
"Hercules is going to be a little late. He had to drive Peggy home." Alexander hides his grin, leaning againt the table.
"That sucks. Aaron couldn't come, and neither could Maria unfortunately, so it's just going to be us six. I'm the designated driver, so keys everyone."
"How come your not drinking?" Thomas asks, ordering a beer. Alex chuckles.
"Lafayette and Laurens are lightweights and Hercules gets drunk after like five drinks, or three shots."
"Pfft, I know I'm a light weight, you don't have to make me feel bad." Laurens grins, taking the shots from the waitress. "Since your not going to drink, by the way, you can watch us have fun."
"Whose not drinking?" Hercules pushes past a couple of already drunk people, sitting down beside them. "Are we dancing?"
"I like dancing!" Madison grins, and Hercules and he laughs, each taking a shot from Laurens. "Yo, Thomas, are you taking this shot?" Thomas hesitently takes it, sniffing the cup.
"What is this?" He asks, and Alex laughs.
"It's Sake. I reccommend you drink it now instead of leaving it for later." He swats Laurens hand as Laurens tries to pour sake into his water. "Stop it you fucker."
"Oh shit, this bar has the good stuff?" Hercules nods, downing his shot before getting up to dance with lafayette.
"Be back!" He yells over the music, dissapearing in the crowd with Lafayette. Laurens nearly jumps the table, downing his drink.
"Cmon Madison, lets go show those loosers how it's done!" Madison rolls his eyes but obliges, running off into the crowd with him. Alex looks over at Thomas, who was staring at him, slowly drinking the shot.
"You know your supposed to, like, down the drink, right? Not slowly sip it like some rich guy drinking wine."Thomas grins, and Alex looks away with a small blush. He was very glad it was dark in the club. "Arn't you going to dance with the others?" Thomas shakes his head.
"Can't dance. I'd rather stay here and order more Sake." Alex nods, understanding.
"Just be careful, that sake is really strong. They mix it with vodka and tequila to get people drunk faster." Thomas winces, glancing at his now empty shot glass.
"Well then, I'll just have to be careful with what I drink." Alex nods, chuckling.
"You will."

Alexander walks out of the bathroom, heading back to their table. They had been there for a couple of hours, and Alexander was getting a bit antsy. He really hated that he couldn't drink, but constantly reminded himsef that he was the attending adult for them all.
"Alexander! Theres youse are!" Thomas comes from nowhere, slinging a arm around Alex's waist, pulling the shorter man closer to him. "Thought you left, love." Thomas' breath smelt strongly of White claw, and Alexander looks up at him.
"Thomas, how many drinks have you had?" Thomas removes his arm to count his fingers before shrugging.
"Dunnoo." Thomas wasnt like this before Alex had went to the bathroom, atleast, he didn't think so. He had stayed in the bathroom for a couple of minutes to call Maria and see how she was doing, since Angelica and Eliza were staying over at their house that night to watch movies and things like that with her.
"Let's go sit down then- maybe you just need a water-" Thomas grabs his hand.
"Nah, lets dance." He drags Alex to the dance floor with everyone else, grinning. "Dancings fun darlin." Alexander coughs, looking arond for the others. Hercules and Lafayette were in the corner sensually dancing while Madison and Laurens were doing a drinking contest back at their table. "Cmon love, dance with me!"
"Fine, fine." Alex chuckles, dancing with Thomas. He sticks to dancing like everyone around them, while Thomas shows Alex some more creative dance moves, stumbling after he comes out of a spin, and Alex catches him. Thomas pulls the short man close, leaning down to whisper in his ear,
"I'm like sugar in your hands, love." Alex feels both of Thomas's hands on his waist, and-
"Yo, Alexander!" He jumps a bit, thanking Suzanne for inturupting them before things got.. Well he didnt know how things would have gone, and he was very greatful. "No making out in my club, get your friends." She points to Hercules and Lafayette, who had gone from dancing to full on making out. "Leave the cars here, like always, they can come get them in the morning." Alex nods, taking both of Thomas's hands off his waist. He tugs Thomas over to Hercules and Lafayette, shoving Thomas into Lafayette while he grabs Hercules.
"Okay people! Time to go!" He takes off his small bookbag he always brought when they went drinking, pulling a rope out of the bookbag. "Look, hold the colourful ring. If you don't hold it, I will tie you to this." Thomas grabs onto blue while Lafayette and Hercules grabs onto the same one. Alex moves Lafayette up where he was, leading them through the crowded bar.
"Alecx!" Laurens grins as he sees his friend, holding up a cup. "Come sip! You should sip, its- really goos amd-" Alex grabs his hand as Laurens keeps babling on, making him hold onto a ring. Madison quietly grabs one, stumbling a bit, but managing to stay on his feet.
"I really can't take you guys anywhere." Alex pays for their drinks and leads all the men out, deciding not to drive his car. Last time he drove with Madison back to his house, it ended with Madison throwing up all over his backseat. He did NOT want to clean up his car again, so he walked.
"It's cold." Lafayette whines, stopping. Thomas stops as well, leaning up against a store front.
"I don't wanna walk." Hercules sits down.
"I'm tired." Laurens sits as well, while Madison yawns.
"I wanna go home." Alex face palms, grumbling something about ungrateful people before calling Aaron. He did say he didn't want Madison throwing up in HIS car, but Aarons? It was free game. The phone rang for a couple of minutes before Aaron awnsered.
"Hello-"
"Aaron, are you with Theodosia?" Theres rustling in the background before Aaron awnsers.
"Yeah, why?"
"Put her on the phone."
"But you called-"
"Aaron." Aaron huffs, and Alexander can hear Theodosia in the background. He waits as they talk, keeping an eye on everyone. Lafayette and Hercules were drunkinly flirting with each other, while Laurens was passed out against Madisons shoulder, who looked ready to pass out as well. Thomas was still leaning against the window of the store, his eyes closed.
"Alexander, whats up?" Theodosia finally awnsers.
"Hey Theo! Quick question, is it okay if Aaron borrowed your Van? I got five drunk children here that won't walk home." Theodosia laughs.
"I'll come pick you guys up while Aaron stays with the kids, how about that? Where are you guys?"
"By the fighting frenchman. They gave up about three steps from the bar doors."
"Give me five minutes, okay? I'll be there."
"Thanks Theo, I'll see you when you get here." Alex hangs up, looking at everyone. "Alright people!" He says. "Theodosia will be here in a couple of minutes. I don't want you idiots to move- Lafayette, Hercules, stop making out!" The two giggle, pulling away from each other.
"Aaron's wife is picking us up?" Alex jumps, not noticing that Thomas had wandered over to him. "That's pretty nice of her."
"Oh, uh, yeah. When'd you get over here?" Thomas shrugs, leaning against Alex.
"I just know my head hurts and I'm exhausted." He sounded more sober than he had sounded back at the bar. "When's she getting here?"
"In a while. If your tired, you should lay with Madison and Laurens, god knows I'm going to have to force them to get in the shower in the morning before they leave."
"Where we going?"
"Oh, to my house." Alex grins. "You can borrow Lafayettes clothes, since everyone except you has clothes at my house." Thomas yawns, pulling Alex against his chest.
"Tired." Alex struggles in Thomas's arms, sighing as Thomas leans against his head. He perks up as a van stops infront of them, and Theodosia gets out, raising an eyebrow between them.
"What's ah-"
"Don't ask." He huffs. "Just help me get these drunk fucks in the car please Theodosia." She laughs again, taking a couple of pictures before helping him.
"C'mon, let's get them home." She snorts, and for once, Alexander agrees with her.
