Good game Rylex angst

Back soon

"Hey, wake up fuckhead!" Ash was banging on Rylands door, as Alex swooped over after grabbing a drink from the fridge. "Hold this? Thanks." Alex nonchalantly placed his drink in Ash's hands, before politely knocking on the door. "Ryland dude? Everyone's here." His quiet voice spoke sympathetically. "Ughh, he's probably having a tantrum again." Ash spat.
"He doesn't have tantrums, Ash." He has episodes. It's different." Alex corrects, taking the drink from her hands before she takes a sip. "Hey!?" She shouts.

A few minutes later,
Everyone's gathered around the game table, clicking away, but Alex is on the couch, hitting his bong. After a few puffs people begin to cough. "Ugh, do you need to smoke that right now?" Lorenzo shoots, glaring at the mop
Of hair and smoke. "..mm..I'll stop." He slowly replies. "God, Alex..I thought you said you wouldn't...use that when they're here.." groggily spoke Ryland, now standing at his doorframe. "Morning sunshine." Kamal mocks.

Pantsless ryland comes over to Alex, who's slouched on the sofa, still spewing the funky smelling fog. "Dude, you're such an ass." Ryland snatches the bong from Alex, now more awake. Alex chuckles, "pants.. Ryland." His eyes trying their hardest to not stare. "Oh shit, sorry guys. Yeah yeah." Ryland goes back to his cave, brining the bong with him. Alex doesn't protest, but cough in reply. "Are you two married?" Sam asks sarcastically with a scoff.
A wheeze interrupts Alex's coughing fit as he replies. "In Ry's dreams." He giggles. "Oh, haha. I'm bi, but that doesn't mean I'm attracted to any French hobo!" Ryland shouts, tugging on pants, from his room. "Enough about their love life, I need a healing potion and I need it now!" Lorenzo barks.

As everyone is tapping away, there's a suspicious lack of coaching happening. "Alex? Any help you wanna give dude?" Kamal finally speaks up. "I.. I can't really help anyway." Slowly replies the mess of hair draped on the couch. "Hey, that's not true! You annoy us so much we really want to finish the game." Ash snickers, expecting Alex to retaliate, only to get a deep hum in reply. A couple seconds later, "Are you dying?" Kamal stupidly asks him, and receives a smack over the head from Sam. They all chuckle, and focus on the game. But little do they know, Alex wouldn't mind doing so right now. He's drunk, high, and sad. Yet he's so good at hiding it, that no one cares. Or rather, no one really cared before anyway. With a small sigh, the world fades away to him, and all he can think of is the lyrics to one of his favourite songs.

Here we are
In a room full of strangers
Standing in the dark
Where your eyes couldn't see me
Well I had to follow you
Though you did not want me too
That won't stop my lovin' you
I can't stay away
Blamin' on the nights on
Broadway
Singin' them love songs
Singin' them straight to heart songs
Blamin' it all on the nights of
Broadway

Really he was in a room full of strangers, he thought to himself. And it would be aimed at Ryland, he really did love Ryland, more Than he really realised honestly. He wondered what it would be like, to be singing to Ryland with this song, dancing under purple and blue lights with the intoxicating smell of booze and sweat, moving to the beat and growing closer to his man with every word.

Oh. Mm.

But Alex is straight, isn't he? That's why he can joke about Ryland being gay,- Bi. He's Bi, Alex reminds himself.
Why does he care so much?

"Alex? Alllexx? Hello? Hello?!" Suddenly ash's voice rings through his ears. He grumbles in question. "Bring me a glass of something?.. please?" She adds quietly. With a small groan, Alex rubs his eyes and stands up from the comfy leather. God, it's like his feet are so far away today. Oh wait they're like that everyday. "Soon, dude?" She prods him. "Yeahh, sorry."
Alex finally speaks, the drinks laying off a little from his system slowly. "Oh come on!! I had him!" Ryland suddenly yells, making Alex grimace as he walks to the kitchen. "Hey can I get a soda? You guys have soda?" Kamal orders, then doubting the diet of the roommates. "Uhm.. is Pepsi ok?" Alex almost whispers. "Huh?" Kamal snorts. "We have Pepsi." He says louder. With the sound of running water blasting out the tap, followed by the opening and shutting of the fridge, the tall man goes over the the game table.

"Here you go, Ash." Alex softly speaks, to which Ash simply quickly exhales out her nose. And with a second clink, a cup of Pepsi is placed in front of Kamal. "Here.." Alex says, less happily, now not having his presence acknowledged at all. Man, he isn't drunk enough for this. "See Alex? This is a respectable job to have for a team, refreshments and, ..and team spirit, I'd say." Lorenzo fakes a smile at his direction. "Thanks Lorenzo, that's.. that's nice I guess." Alex replies flatly, while reaching for his jacket. After checking the fridge for supply amounts and grabbing his keys, Alex waves goodbye to everyone. "Back soon." He says a little loudly so they hear him. He only gets a simple "k." From Ryland.
