"Al! I'm so glad you can make it!" The male greets his friend with his radiant smile.
"I had a little time to spare ,couldn't say no to a free drink." Alastor lightly laughed as the two then sat down at the bar,ordering whatever they wanted.
They talked for hours,getting caught up with what was happening in their lives. Something they did or have done many times before. Alastor would reply with a simple,"Ooh! You know, just the normal deal making here and there." Giving some playfulness in his tone, making the male with the box television for a head laugh in giddiness as he was on his third drink now.
"That's wonderfuul." Vox slurrs slightly, resting his head on his hand,admiring his good friend. Alastor notices and hums as he takes another shot of his drink and then asks for another from the bar tender. In honest, he couldn't bring himself to tell Vox the truth. What he has been doing. Not about his deals or whatever but about Vox in particular. The glass of whiskey was placed in front of him,immediately taking a slow sip and a deep breath. He suddenly feels arms wrapping around his arm. He glances down to see the same lovestruck look he always sees when his 'friend' is drunk. Alastor hated it. Not Vox, of course, but he knew what would happen next. He hears the same giggle brew from the other as he speaks dearingly. Alastor looks away, pretending he doesn't see it until the hug on his arm gets tighter, followed by a whine.
"C'mmon,let's get outta here."
"This is a bad idea." Alastor warns,his face getting red from the alcohol now slowly hitting him. Vox leans to give the other a peck on the cheek.
Alastor sighs,making Vox frown. "Did..I do something wrong?.."
Vox is such an emotional drunk that even if he denies it, the evidence is in the pudding.
"No,you didn't.. thatsthe issue." Alastor's attention finally onthe sadden Vox.He rests his palm on Vox's face(or screen),as the other male nuzzles against the warm hand. Alastor sighs, giving the other a quick kiss, which becomes two, then three , and eventually more kisses. They stumbled out of the bar while making out and without paying because the bartender didn't wanna mess with the radio demon wrath . They made their way to Vox's place,Alastor opening the door with one of his tentacles as Vox was clinging to him,arms and legs wrapped around Al while kissing him still. Closing the door as they made their way to the bedroom,Alastor breaks away from the kiss, ignoring the cries from the other.
"I love youuu!" Vox said lovingly,trying to kiss Al again.
"Pftt, you're drunk. You don't mean that." The raido demon brushes the other off,in slight denial.
Vox shakes his head quickly,holding his friend tighter. "I do mean it! I looovee you a lot! I'll say it to you ...ill ..I'm err sober! I promise!" He mumbles as Alastor ears droops at those words, then drops him on the bed,watching the drunken male slowly falling asleep,on his side, while trying to grab some blankets. Alastor sits at the end of the bed as his hands are folded together with a frown on his face. He glances over his shoulder to make sure the other is fully asleep before standing up. Watching his shadow hovering over the sleeping male,trying to protect Vox with a sorrow or worried look on its face,like it knows what's gonna happen nexts. Alastor gets in the bed with Vox as his shadow disappears. He wrapps an arm around Vox's waist,sighing silently. Alastor was no coward to many things, but when it comes to love, he'll run away and pretend it never happens. His hand moves from Vox's waist to his head,opening it to reveal many wires he's seen many times now. Almost like its second nature now, he takes one of the wires,the one that always makes Vox forget. Using his teeth to rip the wire apart,Vox immediately tenses with a loud yelp up as his hand has a death grip on the bed with his screen pitch black, showing a yellow triangle with an explanation mark.
Alastor cooes at him sourly with a frown,he truly didn't want to do it, but he also didn't want to accept the man's confession either. If anything, this wasn't the first time Vox had confessed to the deer when they were drunk.. and this isn't the first time Alastor had erased Vox's memory either. When Vox wakes up, he won't remember anything and that nothing ever happened.
