Alex sat in the living room couch, watching TV when he heard the familiar voices of Lorna Dane and Bobby Drake. Alex turned the volume down as he saw the happy couple go in. He noticed Lorna was stumbling and giggling—Which meant two things: Either Bobby had been extra hilarious today or she was wasted out of her right mind. Bobby, on the other side, looked like his normal and cool self.
“Well, hello there. Fun night out?” He asked. Bobby looked up, holding Lorna with one hand and closing the door with the other. “Depends on what your definition of is…” Bobby said. “Lemme guess, she got drunk as hell and she was babbling random shit on the way home.” Alex said, with Bobby half nodding. “Ehh, the beginning was fun. But then she called tequila shots. So— LORNA, STOP TOUCHING MY ASS!” Bobby yelled as drunk Lorna grabbed his ass. “I luff chu, Booby.” Lorna said with a few giggles. Alex looked down at Lorna then back at Bobby. “Should she even be allowed to drink? With all the magnets around…?” He asked Bobby. “I…- I don’t know, good question though. Say, what are you doing out here?” Bobby asked Alex, who shrugged and sighed. “I’m just not tired. A little nervous about, well, Brie. that’s it.” Bobby furrowed his brow as he heard Alex. “It’s normal, I guess. You’re about to be a dad, it scares you. It’s not just anything, a baby changes your life /complete— I’m not helping, am I?” He asked. Alex shook his head slightly, “Not at all.”
Lorna, even though drunk, was closely paying attention to Alex’s dilemma. It was one of those ‘Drunk people giving advice’ moments. “You’re gonna –hiccup- be a good father –hiccup- Alex. Don’t doubt yourself –hiccup- I /believe/ in you! –hiccup- You’ll be way better than –hiccup- Erik.” Lorna said between hiccups. “Besides, you’re going to be a hot dad cause –hiccup- Your last name is Summers! You see what I did there?” He giggled, while Bobby and Alex exchanged dumbfounded looks. Of course, it hit them—Lorna was still awfully wasted. /awfully/. “I’m… Going to take Lorna to bed now. She needs her beauty sleep. Come along, Dane.” Bobby said, grabbing Lorna by the arm.
“More like beauty coma…” Added Alex.
“Something like that…” Bobby said with a slight smirk. “Goodnight, Alex.”
“Night Bobby, night Lorna.” Alex said.
“NIGHT, ALEX!” Lorna yelled, sending kissy faces towards the blonde’s direction. “Oi…” Alex said.
It was around 9:30 AM when the doorbell rang. Kitty Pryde, codenamed Shadowcat, rushed to the door and opened it. “Much to her surprise, the people at the end of the door were Steve Rogers, the symbolic Captain America, and Thor Odinson, the God of thunder.
