It's Nice To Have A Friend

10) The Gang Goes To A Gay Bar

They were stuffed after the meal Hermione and Alice had made that day, and so the gang were sitting around the coffee table, totally exhausted.

"Is this what we do now? Have dinner and pass out half an hour later?" Hermione asked, looking around the room of friends who were all holding their stomachs.

FP pushed Fred a little, who had fallen asleep.

"Huh, what?" He said confused, realizing he wasn't in his bed.

"Yeah, my point exactly." Hermione said, gesturing to Fred, making the rest giggle.

"I'm up to go out tonight. But where?" Alice said, being excited to really do something together.

"Fred, FP?" Hermione asked, hoping they'd be on board too.

"We're down, it's been long since we've been out. Let's have an old school night of fun." FP agreed, smiling at his friend. They were in their twenties now, and almost forgot to really take advantage of that time.

"I think I know a place." Mary grinned, and gave Hermione a knowing look.

She wouldn't tell where they were going, but they all took a moment to dress in something nice for the night, comfortable enough to dance in. As usual, the guys were done in less then fifteen minutes, while the girls took much longer. They spend their time waiting watching some TV in the Maiden-Gomez apartment, but FP got impatient. He hopped off the couch and poked his head into Alice's room, where she was admiring her outfit in the mirror.

"This what you're wearing?" He questioned, walking further into her room.

"Not good?" She asked, turning around to face him.

"It is, you look hot." FP looked her up and down and smirked. He definitely approved.

"It's almost making me jealous that others will be looking at you." He wrapped his arms around her waist and growled a little.

Alice smirked and brought her lips close to his ear, making him shiver.

"You never know what the night brings, FP." She said lowly, before taking a step aside and leaving him in her bedroom with a wicked smile on her face. FP shook his head in amusement and quickly followed her out.

"Guys, you ready?" She asked, right before Hermione and Mary came walking out their bedroom, dressed in the perfect outfit for a night out.

They knew Mary wanted to keep it a secret where they were going, so when they were finally in a club, they took a quick look around to see if it looked familiar. However, it wasn't the location that gave away were they were, but it was the crowd.

"Mare, this is a gay bar, isn't it?" FP asked, connecting the dots.

"You bet your ass it is!" Mary grinned, looking at the three surprised faces of FP, Fred and Alice.

"Why didn't you tell us before?" Alice laughed, finding it amusing that they took them here.

"Because you guys would be complaining, Hermione and I love it here and we wanted to show it to you." Mary said, wrapping her around her girlfriend, who beamed brightly.

"It's absolutely amazing, of course we won't complain!" Fred said, looking his eyes out.

"That girl is eying you, Alice." Hermione said, gesturing for someone on the dance floor.

"Come, let's dance with her!" Alice said happily, as she took the hands of Mary and Hermione to make their way onto the dancefloor.

Fred and FP were left at the bar, where they both ordered a beer. FP couldn't get his eyes off Alice, and the way her hips swayed as she danced.
