____Alex POV____

As everyone got a chance to greet Eric and welcome him, I stayed in my office working on paperwork. "Alex? You in here?" Lisa knocked on the door, I got out of my chair and opened the door, "Yes, I am... now, do you need something..?" I asked, a bit annoyed, "Eric was wondering if you would join us for dinner...." she answered, if I had to be honest, I didn't want to join them... as much as I liked hanging out with the guys.. and well girl, the memories Eric brings back.... 'sigh' I just can't explain it, "Earth to Alex, you there?" I shook my head, "Sorry, what?" She sighed, and gave me a look that said, 'Join us, do it for Eric... or I swear i'll murder you', I pinched the bridge of my nose, "FINE, but only because I know how you get when things don't go your way!" She giggled and walked off, "You're doing it for Eric!" She called out, I grumbled as I got ready.

____Rocky POV____

Everyone was here, I mean... except for Alex, which is why I sent Lisa to go get him, hopefully she encouraged him.. "He's coming guys." She happily said, skipping into the room, "Oh, so you did encourage him to come down.." I said a bit shocked, but then again... Lisa has her ways. Oliver walked in bringing ALOT of food and setting it on the table, "God damn Oliver, I know there is alot more people here... b-" Oliver cut me off, "I'm the chef here... trust me, you guys eat alot." Eric chuckled when he heard that, "Well, I'm starving so I know I am." Oliver looked at me, "See? I told you." He said smirking, I just rolled my eye's and waited for Alex.

We waited for about five minutes and FINALLY, we saw Alex walking down, I saw him half glaring at Lisa, and Lisa slightly smirking at him, "Alex, come on and hurry up.. we're all starving here." I said, earning a glare from him, heheheh.. he hasn't changed, thats a lie, maybe a bit, "Okay, fine.. shall we begin eating or what?" He said, grumbling.. "Seems like the President is grumpy." Eric said teasingly, "Shut up newbie..." Alex said, err.. more like snapped, which made Eric laugh, oh man..... this is going to be one hell of job.

____No one's POV____

As they all sat down, Rocky kept joking with Alex about Eric, "Rocky, I swear i'm going to-" Alex didn't get a chance to finish his sentence because Rocky started laughing, "Oooo you swore!" He said, before Alexander could say anything, the food was served.. "This looks delicious Oliver.. no wonder you're the cook" Eric chirped, "Aw, thanks bud." Oliver bowed and left the room with the other chef's.

As soon as everyone finished eating, they all left, well all but two people, Rocky, and Eric... "Has Alex changed ever sense..." Rocky shook his head "Not a lot.. I mean, he's grumpy yeah.... but not as much, why do you ask?" He asked, tilting his head a little, "I was just wondering.. sense you know.." Eric answered looking down, Rocky patted his back, "I know, but don't worry about it... he'll warm up to you again, I promise.. after all, you are his bodyguard, and who know's maybe they assigned you to be his bodyguard for a special reason." Eric looked back at him, and smiled a little, "Thanks for that Rocky." Rocky smiled and made his way to his room, "Anytime Eric, just know... we are still the Alcoholic's by heart." And with that he disappeared into his room, leaving Eric thinking about what he said.

Little did he know, there was a certain someone who was listening to the conversation him and Rocky had just had. And maybe... just maybe, that person would think about what they said.
