Let me know if there's any mistakes!

~.~

The ride is short lived, and Aether isn't all that excited to arrive at the party despite all the planning and fun he had setting it up with Scaramouche. He had an odd feeling that things wouldn't go well and it itched at the back of his mind the entire car time.

Despite the feeling, he still hoped that it wouldn't end up that way.

It seemed that he was dissociating for a while because he didn't even realize he was already standing outside with his friends handing his invitation to the guard outside who was hired to make sure everyone who entered the house was officially invited and not just trying to crash.

He blinks his eyes a few times and realizes he's already being led inside by Xiangling who's holding him by the waist. She's saying something to him.

"....nna take photos first. Then you can go do your own thing okay?"

"Okay." Aether nods and follows them to the photo op he had set up with Scaramouche and they take a lot of photos together before they finally split off to do their own things.

He doesn't even need to explain himself as he makes his own way through the party to look for its host. He can feel a lot of eyes on him and suddenly he's feeling self conscious about his own body. He recognizes a few people but none that he's super close to so he keeps walking.

Until he finally spots Albedo.

They meet eyes at just about the same time and Aether has to do a double take with how handsome the alpha looks. He's wearing a man-bun and usually that's not his type but on Albedo it's literally made for him.

"Wow. You look amazing." Albedo tells him first, and Aether thanks him with a shy smile.

"You too." He says back and doesn't mind that his eyes are the ones looking him over. It's not like the hungry ones he got on his way there, they seemed more tame and flirty.

"I'm looking for someone—"

Albedo cuts him off by handing him a cup, "Here, I'll get my own drink. You look like you need it."

Aether raises his eyebrow at the alpha but accepts the drink, "Thank you. I actually do need it. How did you know?" He takes a sip and knows its alcohol. He coughs a bit but gets used to the bitterness after the third sip.

"You said you were looking for.."

The alpha trails off and Aether looks at him to see why he didn't finish his sentence, but it gets answered when he feels a body press behind him and arms around his waist.

He can feel more than just Albedo's eyes on him and who ever has their arms around him. He's about to twist around to see who it is when he gets his answer once more.

"He might be looking for me."

Scaramouche.

He looks at Albedo's reaction and is surprised to see that the alpha's face is red, he clears his throat after a few seconds of silence minus the loud music from the party.

Albedo excuses himself and turns to walk away, mumbling something about getting himself a drink.

Aether lets the whole thing finally set in and he pulls himself away from Scaramouche.

"You didn't have to do that." He hits the alpha's chest before grabbing his arm and leading them to a more private area with less nosy people.

"He looked like he was undressing you with his eyes. What a fucking asshole." Scaramouche rolls his eyes, a drink in his own hands and he can already smell it on his breath—its strong.
