John found Alexander not long after arriving.

"Is there alcohol?" John asked. He knew it would take him a minute to get used to drinking the hard stuff again since he hadn't had any in a long time.

Alexander chuckled and nodded. "Yeah, this way, honey bun." He smiled, walking with John to the kitchen, making their way through a crowd of people.

John cringed at the name, as he always did. "Yeah, that name is not it," he said, seeing the alcohol in the kitchen and taking a Sam Adams bottle.

Alexander grinned. "Don't worry, I'll find the right one, snuggle bear." He said, taking a water. Tonight he was ordered to stay sober so he would.

John made a gagging sound at that name. "That was so bad." He mumbled before taking a drink of the bottle in his hand. He cringed a bit at the taste but didn't let it bother him too much.

Alexander smiled before his name was called from a man who was walking over. "Hey, Herc!" Alexander said, still staying by John. Herc walked over and smiled. "Hey, whose that?" He asked, pointing to John.

John looked annoyed. "That is John." He said, taking another sip of the alcohol in his hand. Hercules chuckled. "Hey, John. I'm Hercules Mulligan." He said, reaching his hand out. John shook it.

Hercules then turned to Alexander. "They're playing beer pong over there if you want to join." He said. Alex shook his head. "No, I'm staying sober tonight. I drank at the last party." He said. His friend group normally switched off who was sober Incase a parent come home or something.

Hercules nodded. "Alright, man. I'll be over there if you need me. Nice to meet you John!" He said before squeezing his way through the crowd.

"I'm guessing you two are close." John said, taking another drink of his alcohol. He wanted to get drunk as soon as he could without chugging.

Alexander nodded. "Yeah, he's been my best friend for a while. We're on the lacrosse team together." He said, drinking some of his water.

"Mmm. Cool. My best friend is Lafayette. He's French." John said as if Alex would know him just from that. He was beginning to get a little buzzed since he was a lightweight.

Alexander nodded. "I have government with him." He said. John was about to reply when another song came on. "Oh my god I love this song." He said, grabbing Alexander's hand and pulling him to the dance. Alexander laughed but obliged, dancing with John.

John took a big drink of the alcohol and started jumping around with the song.

"Stacey's mom has got it going on!" John screamed with the song. Alexander was laughing, just enjoying John.

John kept screaming the lyrics and sipping his Sam Adams. He was obviously drunk before finishing half the bottle. After the song, John went into a laughing fit on the ground. Alexander smiled and helped him stand up.

The two kept partying, with several visits from Alexander's friends and Lafayette checking on John several times, until around two in the morning.  About one, Lafayette asked Alex if he could take John home because he was going to go hook up with someone. Alex agreed and around two, he decided it was around time for John to go home.

They had come to the conclusion John was a mix of clingy and giggly. He followed Alex like a puppy the entire night and Alex thought it was funny. Alex asked John for his address and he couldn't remember, so Alex came to the conclusion to just let John stay the night with him.

Alexander lived with the Schuyler's. They took him in after his mom died when he was younger but not many people knew and they kept it that way. It did get awkward though when Eliza and Angelica both had massive crushes on him. Him and Eliza dated in secret from her parents for about a year and a half but then decided they were better off as friends.

Alexander helped John up the stairs to his room. It was pretty messy currently because he had been pretty busy. He laid him in his bed and went to leave before John whined. "Don't leave!" He slurred.

Alexander rolled his eyes playfully. "Then what am I going to do? Watch you sleep?" He asked. John hugged. "Fuck me in this bed bitch." He muttered, giggling afterwards.

Alexander laughed. "You're drunk, John. I'm not going to have sex with you drunk." He said, shaking his head.

"Aww but why not? I haven't had sex in three years!" John groaned, slurring almost every word.

"And you won't tonight. Maybe when your sober and when we date." Alexander said.

John huffed, too drunk to catch the 'when'. "Fine but at least lay with me?" He asked.

Alexander sighed. "I suppose it's the least I could do." He snickered, laying down next to John.

John giggles and immediately hugged Alexander while laying down. 'Ah, so he's clingy, giggly, horny, and touchy...' Alexander thought, putting his arm around John so he would sleep better.

Alex didn't necessarily want a relationship with John right now. He knew the two hardly knew each other and wanted to become good friends before ruining a chance of ever having a friend ship with him. He knew the two would work out as friends, but dating scared him. He didn't want to date John and ruin everything. He would rather wait until he knew he wouldn't ruin anything but once he was sure it would be fine, he would date John. He could see himself with John, with both his personality and his looks. John was different and charming. Alex liked that.

He adored that.
