John POV
The few days I've spent with Alex during this holiday have been the best days of my life. That being said, I miss my friends. Luckily it's New Years eve and you know what that means? I get to get shit faced drunk.

New Years is always so boring with my family, why not spend a night having fun with my friends? Alex and I are currently making out on his bed.

I'm up against the headboard and he's sitting on my lap facing me, I have one hand on his back and the other on the back of his head. He has his around my neck.

My phone buzzes and I groan picking it up, it's Peggy.

[anDPEGGY has entered the chat]

anDPEGGY: PARTY TONIGHT!!!

[gayturtle has entered the chat]

gayturtle: You killed the moment.

anDPEGGY: oooooh, were you two boning or just making out?

[gayturtle has left the chat]

I switch off my phone and toss it, it lands on the bed because the bed is huge.

Alex chuckles as he begins to kiss my neck in a way that doesn't give me an invitation to fuck him but is still kinky. He sucks on my neck leaving small bruises. I moves both my hands to his waist as he bites gently, but hard enough to leave a mark.

The door knocks and he stops, groaning and drops his head onto my chest. The door opens and Washington walks in, "Sorry to interrupt but Lafayette and Mulligan are here to see you." he says avoiding eye contact with Alex, he was glaring at him.

Alex roll off me and I get up, "I'm gonna give them a peice of my mind." he says and rolls off the bed landing on the floor. He just lies there. I help him up and we walk down the stairs to see Lafayette and Hercules standing by the door.

Alex runs into Lafs arms, "God I missed you!" he yells as Lafayette laughs, "I can't wait to finally be your roommate again. It's not the same without you mon ami!" Laf says hugging him tightly.

"What's on your neck my dude?" Herc asks me looking at the hickies on my neck, I blush a ton and cover my neck with my hoodie. "What? You embarrassed?" Alex asks with a smirk, making me blush harder and Laf and Herc laugh.

We walk upstairs to Alex's room, "You guys excited for tonight?" Laf asks sitting down on the bed, I nod. "Alexander, have you been working all break?" Herc asks looking at his cluttered desk, "What? No!" he says in a very unconvincing tone. "Yeah, he has. And it's when he's supposed to be sleeping." I say.

Herc shakes his head in disappointment. Just then the door opens and Bella peeks her head in, "I heard other voices." she said looking at Herc and then at Laf. "Bella, these are my other two friends, Hercules and Lafayette." Alex says as she walks inside.

"So you're the Bella we've been hearing so much about?" Lafayette asks with a smile, Bella looks at him for a moment, "You're the baguette boy." she says and Alex bursts into laughter, she jumps up on the bed next to him, "I like your hair." she says touching his curley hair that's up in a bun, "Why thank you." Laf replies.

"We're going in like an hour, you guys need to get ready." Herc says looking at Alex and I. "Where are you going?" Bella asks, "We're going to a... Party." I say and her eyes widen, "Ooh! Can I come?" she asks, "No, it's a party for grown-ups." Alex says and she looks at him confused, "But you're not a grown-up." she says, "Well, technically I am. And besides, they are so I have adult supervision." Alex says and I snort.

"Shut up old man." he says grabbing an outfit out of his closet, I gasp defensively and he sticks his tongue out at me playfully as he backs up into the bathroom to get dressed.

"Oh my God I love him." I say once the door had shut, Herc pats me on the back, "Well it's not like you two are dating or anything." he says sarcasticly and I roll my eyes. "You gonna get something to wear or am I gonna pick for you mon ami?" Laf asks pulling up my bag.

I take it from him and he sighs falling back onto the bed. "What kind of party is it?" Bella asks, I forgot she was still here. "It's a grown-up party for new years." I say pulling out a shirt and jeans. "Are there gonna be lots of people there?" she asks. "Yeah, a ton." Herc says still examining Alex's desk, "He's started essays for the next three months." he says picking up papers and reading them.

"Typical Alexander." I say in a loving tone and Lafayette smirks, "You really are in love with him, aren't you?" he asks, I nod, "I have my fair share of ex's but I've never felt this way before." I say in a dreamy voice, "Just how many ex's do you have?" Herc asks.

"A few, a lot of guys dated me either for the money or for the popularity but there were a select few that actually cared about me." I say and Laf pats me on the back, "Well, at least you had a few who actually cared." he says, "What's that supposed to mean?" I ask and he shakes his head, "All in good time mon ami." he says.

Alexander comes out of the bathroom in a long sleeved top and jeans. "My turn." I say and walk into the bathroom to get dressed. Just a shirt and jeans as well, something that isn't uncomfortable but still looks good.

I walk out to find Bella tying Alexander's hair up in a pony tail and Laf and Herc going through Alexander's essays. "Dude these aren't supposed to be handed in for like a month!" Lafayette says in shock at Alexander's work. "I write when I'm stressed, and I can't remember the last time I wasn't stressed." he says as Bella finishes.

"John do you encourage this?!" Herc asks looking at me, I shrug, "It's better then the alternative." I say eyeing Alexander who looks away. Lafayette nods in agreement, "Yeah I suppose it is." he says putting down his work. "We should get going." Herc says checking his watch.

We all bead downstairs, "Alex! Of you come back wasted there will be consequences!" Washington calls from the second lounge as we pull on our coats, "Can't I live a little?" Alex asks, "Sure. When you're 18." Washington replies. Alex rolls his eyes as we make our way to the car.

We get in, Alex and I in the back. "Who's ready to get wasted?" Alex asks as Lafayette turns up the music, "Yeah!" Herc yells as we drive away from the house.

~time skip~

We are at a huge club that's celebrating New Year's. We all managed to get in even though we have two minors in the group and started ordering rounds at the bar, Peggy and Alex were finally ready to get drunk for the first time.

"You sure you're up for this baby? Hangovers are shit." I say and he glares at me, "I've been drugged and I suffered from migranes when I was 14, I know how shitty hangovers feel." he says. I nod my head and hand him a drink.

The DJ turns the music up and hundreds of drunk people crowd the dance floor. We start drinking and soon enough, we're all pretty tipsy. We order some shots and a bunch more drinks and start our night properly.

Its now about 12:56 pm, only four minutes to new years. Lafayette and Hercules are making out in the corner of the club and Eliza managed to find that guy she got the number of that time we went day drinking and they were making out by the bar.

"John~" I turn around and Alex is already clinging onto me, I smirk wrapping my arms around waist. "Anyone ever tell you how beautiful your eyes are?" he asks staring into my eyes. I kiss him passionately.

"Ayy! Who's ready to start the countdown?!" the DJ calls into the crowd as we break apart. A timer appears on the wall behind him. 12 seconds.

"Alright everyone!" he cheers, "10!" the whole club begins to count, "9! 8! 7! 6! 5! 4! 3! 2! 1! HAPPY NEW YEAR!" everyone cheers and grabs someone to kiss. Lafayette and Herc go back to making out, same with Eliza and that other guy, Angie managed to snag the hot bartender and Peggy with, to my surprise, Maria Lewis.

I kiss Alex once again. He bites my bottom lip slightly and as I gasp he slips his tongue in my mouth. Smooth move, Alexander.

Honestly, best new year's ever.
