(This Au does not belong to me!)

Stanley and Soos had thought of the bright idea to host another party, not a grand re-opening after party, but one to simply welcome the founder back to Gravity Falls, Soos also secretly just wanted to have a chance to take off work to spend time with Stan who he'd always looked up to as a father figure.

So there was Dipper, Mabel, Wendy and Bill all setting up the party, they had rented a place to throw it and it was all coming together well, Soos had told Stanley he needed to only worry about what to wear and not to worry about the party, which of course Stan was pleased with. Ford was busy as well, he was on snack and drink duty with Melody. As they shopped Ford got to know her better, and suddenly he asked, "if you don't mind me asking Melody, why are you helping Bill? I mean I understand you weren't here for everything.. but I'm sure Soos let you know how terrible he is."

Melody looked back at Ford and sighed, "Well of course I know what he did was terrible, trust me, when he first got here he was.. a mess." She paused then said, "but he's really improved, he's opened up to me about a lot, and he's been trying to work on himself." She smiled then chuckled and said, "that giant axolotl made him get counseling while he's here too, he goes every Sunday, that's why Wendy hangs around more on those days." She then picked up a pack of pit cola and said, "it's different for me then it is for you, you don't have to forgive him ever, but just know he is putting effort into being better now.. so don't be too hard on him unless he actually does something bad y'know?" Melody smiled a little more at Ford.

Ford looked away and nodded, "I suppose I understand, but I don't think I'm ready to accept his apologies yet.." Melody placed a hand on Fords shoulder, "And Ford you don't have to, he doesn't deserve your forgiveness after everything he did, especially to you. So just keep a positive attitude, if he ticks you off don't let him get to you, and if he does something wrong you come to me okay?" She smiled, and Ford nodded, "Thank you Melody."

A bit later everyone was getting ready, Mabel was as always wearing some flashy outfit to do her karaoke in, Dipper wore a white button up, black slacks and a tie that Pacifica insisted he wore because in her words, "if my parents see me with you you need to look presentable."

Stanley was dressed in a basically the same thing as Dipper but no tie and his shirt was buttoned down. Ford wore a red button down and brown slacks, fixing up his hair a little, man. He hadn't looked this nice since prom. Well he didn't look the same obviously, but this was the first time he put effort into it. Bill on the other hand was absolutely terrified to wear a suit, when he put it on all he saw was his past self, he opted for a white button up and black slacks, part of him wanted to grab the tie. He was nervous to touch it.

It felt wrong.

Before he could make a decision though Melody knocked on the door and peaked in, "come on we're gonna be late- oh hang on let me help you!" She grabbed the bow tie and helped him put it on, patting down his shoulders and said, "you look great Bill" she smiled, Bill smiled a little, "Thanks Mo-MELODY." He blushed and said, "HAHA WELL LETS GO DONT WANNA BE LATE!" She didn't even hear it so she shrugged and walked out, Bill following behind her.

And finally once the party started Soos had a grand reveal of Stanley and everyone clapped, they said a few words, Stan explained what him and Ford were up to and then the party started, there was eating and mingling and an area for the adults only to drink their lives away, Bill had the night off for once so he decided to see what alcohol would due to his human body, he usually needed to drink a lot to get drunk in his old form so when he was two drinks in and feeling tipsy he was confused.

Mabel had forced Dipper on the stage along with Ford and Stan to sing with her and Bill couldn't help but watch as Ford sang, it was bad but Bills heart still fluttered, it reminded him of when they would do that, when they were younger and had fun, drinking and singing together, he snapped out of it and started to down his drink, walking off to the corner of the room, he leaned against the wall and sighed  staying there for a while then muttered out, "I don't belong here.." suddenly a voice next to him said, "no, you don't."

Bill looked over and saw Ford, not realizing how much time had passed since the other male now had a drink of his own, he looked up at the stage at Mabel and said, "you enjoying yourself?" Bill looked away, "Heh, what's it look like to you?" Ford smirked, "a sourpuss who can't have fun" Bills eye widened and said, "oh I can have fun. You're looking at someone who's had more fun than you ever will." Ford smirked, "Prove it" Bill then placed a hand on his hip and said, "by doing what?"

Ford thought for a moment, "let's see who can take more shots, if you beat me I'll admit you know how to have fun" Bill didn't hesitate when he said, "You're so on."

And seven shots later they were drunk as fuck, Bill finished his eighth shot and laughed, Ford was hunched over and muttered "I fucking c-can't.." Bill smirked "OhhhhHh! What was that? You're giving up to y-your enemy?" Ford grimaced and nodded, he felt pathetic.

Bill smirked and took Fords last shot, downing it then licked his lips clean, he tried to get up before almost Falling over. Ford reached out and caught him, Bill stared up at him and maybe it was because he was drunk but his cheeks felt warm.

Ford walked with him to a quiet area, still holding their drinks, Bill said, "thanks Fordsy.." he didn't mean to use the nickname name, it just slipped out.

Ford heard it but didn't care due to how wasted he was, "No p-problem" he heard a song come on and hummed to it, Bill hummed along with him, swaying a little till Ford grabbed his hands and started to dance with him, Bill gasped, "W-Woah..!" He blushed and Ford just smiled and laughed while spinning around with him, Bill smiled and laughed a little, holding onto him and suddenly felt Ford pull him close as the song slowed, he wrapped his arms around him shakily and blushed more, Ford then looked down at Bill as the song stopped and blushed as well.

All Ford was thinking was 'He still looks at me the same way he used to..' and in that moment Fords subconscious couldn't help himself, he leaned down, cupping Bills cheek and kissed him, Bill blushed Dark red and hesitantly kissed back, slowly it got more sloppy, Fords hands held Bills hips and Bills hands slid through Ford hair, Bill felt Ford kiss down his mouth to his neck and leave a few marks, he gasped and said, "W-Woah IQ- We're drunk as shit right now I-I don't think we should be d-doing all this-" Ford kissed him again and said, "You have no clue how much I've missed this.." Ford rested his forehead against Bills and said, "just a few more.."

Bill blushed and said, "u-ugh.." he cupped Fords cheek and said, "you always were so persistent with what you wanted weren't you..?" Bill smiled and Ford did as well before kissing Bill again.

This went on for a while, most people left so Ford decided to pull Bill up to the stage to do karaoke, Bill went along with it and they sung together just like they used to, arms wrapped around each other as they sang, Mabel cheered them on and the others just watched from the sidelines, Melody was proud of Ford and Bill actually getting along, even if it was just because they were drunk, she was happy for them, Stan didn't fully trust this but he did enjoy seeing his brother all happy up there and having fun so he cheered him on.

Once the party was over they all went home, Bill immediately went to bed, as well as Ford, the kids after them then Melody, Soos and Stan.

In the morning Bill woke up, taking off his shirt and changing into a new shirt and some shorts before heading downstairs, he didn't realize all the marks on his neck, so he didn't even try to cover them, Stan was there and started laughing loudly, Bill was confused and said, "what?" Ford was a little confused as well, he then noticed the marks and it all came back to him, he blushed Dark red, Stan smirked at him and said, "patching things up I see?" He teased and laughed more, Bill then walked to a mirror and blushed seeing them and said, "Christ Ford! The fuck did you do!?" Stan then yelled "Language!"

And the two of them never spoke of it again, but they both sure did think about it, especially Bill, he slowly had started to remember those feelings Ford gave him when it all happened, and he secretly missed it all.
