Lifestyles of the rich and the famous; it could be called interesting, the redheaded youth however only found it boring. The music was dull, parents had gone to the dance floor, his friends weren't here and he sat here, drying to drink himself into oblivion.

His lips pulled down in a brief scowl and he glanced at said couple, they where amusing themselves and the expression on his face smoothed out. He couldn't blame them for trying to have fun.

A sigh pulled itself out of his unwilling self and his head dropped into his hands "Why me?" He murmured to no one in particular. His fingers tugging on the fiery locks in agitation. He just had a break up, he wanted to get drunk because his parents had dragged him to a thrice-damned party again!

Axel looked up startled when a glass was placed in front of him, his hand already curling up around it.

"It's from me." The azure-haired male spoke "Because you look like you're amusing yourself." A light chuckle from the stranger and his head lifted to the side, making azure locks fall around his shoulders "Hmm, the next one you'll have to pay for yourself though."

"Because I usually don't pay for under-aged kids." The stranger continued, tossing an amused look toward Axel and walked to the next customer who demanded something to drink.

Said fiery redhead glared at the azure-haired male's back and raised the glass, gulping it down quickly. A blush out of anger spreading across his cheeks and at the alcohol that burned inside him 'How dare he?' He thought, sulking.

He was glad though, receiving free alcohol was always welcome. Especially in situations like this, only in situations like this. He never had been a fan of alcohol and getting drunk actually, but today was a special fan-fuck-tastic day.

Another soft sigh dragged itself out and he played with the rim of his glass, finding his eyes once more focused on the stranger, wondering who he was and why he offered free alcohol to him.

The features of the other male where striking of course, a nagging feel had settled into his stomach that he had seen this male before, but he couldn't recall a name to go along with that and it frustrated him to no end.

The golden orbs where of course the most dominating feature, next to the 'x' crossed scar on the bridge of the other male's nose. Those eyes he had been thinking about moments before turned to meet his gaze and a thin eyebrow rose.

Axel looked away and his fingers twitched, they wanted to run and explore the scar on the other's forehead, did he tell already that he was an act-on-impulse sort of guy?

A pair of hands, strong looking hands Axel noticed, where placed in front of him and he looked up again, meeting those orbs of molten amber and another blush ran over his cheeks "I didn't ask yet." The older, smooth voice washed over his ears and a shiver ran over his spine.

"Why are you trying to drink yourself to an early dead?" Those eyes seemed to burn into the redhead.

Axel looked down at that and scowled once more "What would you do?" He murmured in response and crossed his arms, the empty glass standing between them.

"What would I do?" The man echoed, a note of curiosity in that voice.

"You get cheated upon, parents drag you to some godforsaken party and you can't get even drunk without running out of some goddamn munny!" Axel felt to his shock tears in the corner of his eyes and hurriedly wiped them away before they could be spotted.

The older man's eyes had widened at the -albeit soft- outburst and seated himself, making sure that there was someone else to tend to the customers "Why not sneak away or something?" He questioned the redhead.

A glare aimed his way had him raising his hands lightly "Alright, alright." The stranger admitted defeat easily, a small thin smile resting on his lips and the tense shoulders of Axel relaxed. Amber eyes scanning the crowds, obviously searching for the youth's parents, a small sigh and he jumped over the bar and seated himself next to the youth instead.

He was positioned so that he shielded curious eyes from the pathetic sight that Axel posed "What happened?" He questioned, sighing mentally at what he would have to do. He didn't feel much for listening to tales of drunk teenagers.

The youth surprised him by glaring again "Like I would tell all my secrets to a stranger."

He just nodded in acceptance "Name's Isa." He introduced "Axel.." The youth muttered his own name unwillingly. 'Isa' didn't need to be told. He of course knew already of Axel, who hadn't? That's why he used 'another' name on purpose.

Axel let out another defeated sigh and replaced his head in cupped hands, a hand landed on his shoulder and he glanced at the azure-haired man again.

He felt tears gather in his eyes again and he shook his head "Why had that bastard to do it?" He questioned, partly to himself but also against the other man.

"Do what?" Said male questioned, brushing a lock of red hair back in an absent gesture that didn't seem befitting for him, seeming surprised that Axel didn't seem to notice the small movement.

"Cheat on me.." Axel muttered "Not the worst of all, but reporters know and now I'm portrayed as the poor, cheated boyfriend who didn't know that his lover had taste for other cocks as well as many as possible!"

A soft sigh escaped the azure-haired male and he wanted to speak, only to be interrupted as Axel continued "Then I'm dragged to this and father doesn't want to believe that I broke up." He pulled a face, obviously trying to imitate someone as he was already getting hazy "Oh, don't worry Axe, it can happen to everyone!"

The fine fingers clenched in red hair tightened their grip "And I'm sick of hearing that it can't be that bad." He shook his head "He only says that because he never got rejected by anyone or cheated upon.."

He slammed his hands on the counter suddenly and straightened to stand up and walk away, seeming to fall right down again "I think..." The fiery youth started, looking at the other male who rolled his eyes in a 'why-me?' gesture, before said man caught the teen's arm in a tight grip and hauled both of them in a bathroom.

He only released the youth when he was finally bend over his new friend and took a piece of cloth and ran the tap to wet it. The sounds that escaped where skillfully ignored and another sigh escaped "Great," The azure-haired man spoke to himself "Caring for a vomiting teen today Isa, one step up for you there.." A small smile turned his lips at that, shaking his head as he returned to the sick youth's side.

He pulled Axel's hair back carefully and cleaned the chapped lips "Better now?" He questioned, only satisfied when the youth nodded and he withdrew again to wet a new piece of cloth.

Axel wanted to stand, but a new cloth was placed on him and he moaned softly at the feeling. It was refreshing and he just needed that, the shame of hurling in front of a stranger soon took hold of him however and he looked up in concerned amber eyes.

"Sorry I haven't had the best day.." Axel spoke then. His hand unconsciously playing with the earring in his ear, a small silver hoop.

The elegant male shrugged briefly "I never would have guessed." He returned dryly and automatically straightened the youth's clothes for him when he had helped him up again from the ground.

Axel evaded that burning gaze quickly again however and a sigh reached his ears once more, before the sound of a door opening and closing registered to him.

He growled softly and slammed his fist into the mirror, scowling at the cracked image it still send toward him "I hate this." He spoke to it, green eyes desperately trying to hold tears back. The more focus he put in it, the harder it got.

He finally let a sob escape and sank down to the ground, pulling legs high up against his chest and making his clothes crinkle again. He was glad however that the taste of bile had left his mouth already.

He was done and wiped at his eyes, before simply letting his head rest on folded arms. He heard the door open again and winced, it seemed to worsen the slight pounding that had started in his head. Strange that he noticed something small like that now.

"You thought I would leave you in this state?" The familiar voice drifted over him again and he tightened the hold he had on himself "Hey, look up for a moment.." He did so, getting a glass of water promptly shoved in his hands "Drink." Isa commanded and Axel did so, not feeling any strength to defy that order in any shape.

He placed his head against the wall behind him and looked at the man who was kind enough to help him in such a state. A stranger who still looked far too familiar for Axel's tastes.

Arms crossed themselves over the thin chest and a shy glance was aimed at him "Thanks." The redhead finally muttered.

"I've been there." Was the only thing offered and Axel offered a small bitter smile.

"I'm sure you have." He spoke once more, accepting the fact. He knew that he wasn't the first, nor would he be the last one "But at least you weren't slandered in the newspapers." Axel continued.

"Nor was it on my birthday." The man countered and Axel groaned softly.

"Yeah.. true." He spoke softly, looking away again.

A soft sigh and the man straightened from his own position "Well, you seem okay now." He spoke, voice turning to a slight cold tinge again that seemed to suite the male more than the true concern he heard "So I'll be taking my leave."

Isa turned to walk out again and opened the door "Wait!" Axel called out.

It made the azure-haired male turn and raise an eyebrow in curiosity "I... Thanks for taking care of me." Axel offered, looking straight at the other man with a soft smile on his lips.

It seemed to surprise the other man and he jerked his head in a nod "No problem, do take better care of yourself next time." He continued and gave a small wave in parting.

He was finally gone and Axel remained in the bathroom for a while longer. He finally let out a soft sigh and walked out.

He entered with his head held high, his mother and father apparently, had been looking for him.

They were beautiful for certain. His mother had the same fiery hair as him, done in a French twist and with an elegant dress draped around her body. Axel couldn't help but to admire her as those green eyes laughed toward him.

His father joined them and clasped a hand on Axel's shoulder "I'm sure he was drinking somewhere." He grinned with a devilish look when Axel shot him an angry look after his mother had asked him where he had been.

"Don't say such things!" She spoke, slapping her husband's arm and turning to her only son with a fierce look "You haven't been drinking, have you dear?" She questioned and he shook his head with a soft sigh.

"No mother." He answered "I was just out taking a air and sulking because you have dragged me here." He was almost surprised that it came out so easily. Well, it was not surprising as he had said it time after time for a while now.

"Aw, Axel." His mother cooed "You know you had to."

Axel shrugged his shoulders "Yeah, sure." He looked away and she hugged him.

"Why don't you dance with me, baby?" She questioned "Your father is constantly stepping on my feet."

"I did no such thing!" The older male exclaimed with a grin that contradicted his claim.

Axel rolled his eyes toward the pair of them, laughing softly and took his mother's hand and led her to the dance floor.

"See honey." She spoke to the man he called father "Now I'm going to dance with a real man."

He was deep inside crying out. His own parents hadn't noticed that he had been drinking himself to dead.
