-wandering hearts under the moon-

[Happy~]

Randall realized he would get no where with Landon now and just nodded with a smile finishing his glass he put the liquor away. He could spend all night drinking but his mate would kill him. Turning to Landon he said, "Alex will soon know of it." He wasn't sure how Landon had found and right now he didn't quite have the cabal I ties to think it through with the liquor in his system. Walking to Landon he slaps him on the shoulder realizing Landon had told nothing of who he liked. It still peaked his interest but he saw the best option was to stop the drinks from making their way in the males glass. He doubted Alex would be able to get him up the stairs. "Yes we are friends." He said and left. A friend or two followed to pester him to no end while the rest stayed and kept talking.

Alex-
I nod glad to hear what would happen but also feeling guilty, what if Steele still loved me. I knew it was very slim chance to none but it nagged me none the less. Standing I dip my head some and leave his office. Seeing Randall with two of his friends I headed into the kitchen not sure what I would find. I had never had to deal with a drunk Landon and I knew my brother would switch out the Whisky once Jessica his mate left. Walking to Landon I wondered if he would be in deep pain tomorrow of a head ache and such. Surprisingly I also handled liquor well just like Randall so when we were younger we had a camp fire out I the forest with friends. Most of us ended up asleep in the forest while a few returned. That was back when I was with Steele. Sighing and shaking the memory from my head I grab his arm to get him to stand and prepared to be crushed if he was to fall on me. Or be taken down if he was to fall opposite me and grab my shirt.

"Alex!" He cheered seeing his interest walk in to join him only to read the expected dissaporval and be pulled to his feet. His boots slipped out and his ballance faltered. The next thing he knew he was laying on the floor with Alex on top of him. Landon started to laugh in a manner he could clearly not control. Had Randall stayed the look in Landon's eyes woukd have made clear just who he was really interested in. "I swear I used to hold my drinks better than this but this in not how I expected the night to go, not at all." A low runble followed his words. "I learned Randall has a secret and I fugured it out!" Proud of himself. "I can't tell, but he said you would know soon.. Its a good secret if it was bad I might say but its good so he should say." He was still laying in the floor with intermittent laughter punctuating his slurred rambling. "He said we are friends now, thats good right?" He let Alex go and tried to sit but only ended up rolling back unto his back. Laughing again. It would take the help of at least one other strong male to get him anywhere from the floor.

[Happy~]

Alex-
I yelped as I fell over with him. Glad he hadn't crushed me I look at him with a frown. "I'm glad you know his secret and I'm proud of you for befriending him, but don't be fooled by his good nature." I say and sit up looking at him again then stand. I found Mark and have him help me with Landon, "Just how many drinks did you have?" I ask him suspiciously but also curiously, I couldn't recall seeing such a drunk werewolf. Mark lifts him up with some difficulty as Landon was mostly just dead weight at this point. I find a hunter to help who I didn't know and they get him into the living room, now I wasn't sure if he would make it to the stairs and up them. There's was no harm in trying so I convinced his two helpers to get him up the stairs.

[Grengirl]

Couldn't count.. cup was never dry. Fun game.. He wanted to know something but I play games well too." He growled some at poor Mark when he tugged a little too hard near his bad shoulder. He had however lost his abilty to do much more than growl. Passing out just afterward.

He awoke the next morning, sick and head pounding, in a strange bed filled with strange scents. The room was thankfully dark. "Alex?" He mumbled in a voice that could not hide the pain he had put himself in and crackled from dehydration. Alex was the only one he knew he could trust here and the only one he cared about. Landon tried to roll to his side to see better and nearly fell from the bed. "have to .. find .. Alex." Seeing a shadow in the room.

[Happy~]

Alex-
When he said that his cup was always full I knew that was a bad sign. My brother was trying to find stuff out and I didn't like that. Following the three of them up the stairs as they struggled with a sleeping Landon I had them put him in my room so I could keep an eye on him...

Randall stood there with his arms crossed looking at Landon and smirking. "Alex is in the shower. He had me watch you." He explains and walks over to Landon to help him up. "That was a fun night huh?" He asked with a grin, "So you know my secret? What exactly do you think it is?" I ask him sitting on the bed after getting him back in it.

[Grengirl]

Even with Randal speaking softly every syllable still stung his ears and pounded un his head. "Fun.. Your mate never touched her glass and you both kept touching her middle. It wasn't hard .. but," he couldn't help but smirk. "Unlike you I wasn't aiming to pry .. Memory is a bit hazy after she went up aside from you saying we were friends now. Was that meant to be a lie? I didn't come here to cause trouble. I only want to keep my word to Alex. He releases me and I'll go. Supposing I have my legs back to cooperating." He held up a finger swallowing hard a couple of times before reaching down and pulling a small plastic waste pail close. Utilizing it and seeming not for the first time. He collapsed back into the bed making himself lay on his side. "I'm afraid I'm not feeling very chatty right now. Another time?" Hoping Randall would continue with his largely mild mannered tactics.

[Happy~]

Randall smiled a bit and it seemed soft, "Yes it's true, we are expecting. We've been trying to have a kid now for three years." Soon his face went back to normal and he turned away as Landon began to throw up. "I hold what I say." He tells him to the question of the two males being friends. Standing he looked down at Landon again, "Breakfast is in an hour," with that he leaves as Alex walks in.

Alex-
I was in grey sweat pants and shirt less as I kept drying my hair with the towel. The smell of the used pail hit my nose and I swallowed a gag. "How are you feeling?" I ask though I already knew the answer from the look of his face and the smell of my room. "I hope Randall wasn't to much trouble for you, I had suspected that you would still be asleep when I got out." Walking over I sit down on my bed and look at him.

[Grengirl]

Landon whined. "No but he did see me ill.. The witch made sure I would never break easily. He kept comming back to my love life? Why would he be so interested in that?" Landon closed his eyes against the light. "I think I'm expected at breakfast." He did not want to leave the room. It was dark quiet and safe. Better even that it was where Alex was. "I used to be better at this." Whimpering again. He yearned to touch Alex. His face, hand or hair. Alex was the only one he could trust here and now he was nearly as defenceless as a pup.

[Happy~]

Alex-
I sigh softly as I watch him, "You'll be okay." I say and lay my hand on his cheek. The door was close so unless someone busted into the room no one would see us. "You will be required to go to breakfast " I confirm. Thinking about the first I sigh soflty, "He probably suspects that we are dating. He will keep asking amd brining it up rill he either gets bored or believes we truly have no feelings for each other" I explain. Heading his shines and whimpers caused a soft one to escape from me. "This is why you don't drink with Randall unless you can truly hold down you liquor." I say with a smile amf smirk.

[Grengirl]

"Practice makes perfect?" Letting out a soft moan after the words. He didn't think he would be trying to keep up with Randall again anytime soon. Leaning into Alex's hand and taking in his scent. "I still don't get why its important to him? He has a mate and is good with the pack. I'm no threat to that even if we were to be .. formal." He really didn't want things to go badly here but he loved Alex. He was sure of it now and it was hard not being able to be near to him. "I guess I could tell him about Crissy?" He didn't think he could sit up properly and the idea of eating anything was even less appealing. "..he did win the drinking portion of the night though .. where th.. where does he put it?"
