Alex was you average everyday law enforcer, well that's what he thought, but in reality he was one of the best. Alex was a fairly humble person, he just wanted to help. Lila, Alex's best friend, was also a law enforcer, she was a bit wild compared to Alex's calm persona, but they were perfect for each other(platonically).
"I think we should go to a club tonight~"Lila suggested. The two of them had been working nonstop for the past month and Lila thought they needed a break.
"You know that's not really my kind of thing, Lila"
"Oh come on! You need to get out more, and maybe find you a nice girl to spend the night with~" Lila tried convincing Alex.
"Are you saying I should find a one night stand?" Alex looked offended.
"All I'm saying is you need to let loose, you don't need to find a girl to sleep with, just come on, you gotta have some fun every once in a while, all you do is work!" Lila said.
"Fine. I'll go" Alex replied, he knew Lila wasn't gonna stop till he said yes. Lila squealed excitingly "we're going after work, so be ready"
You see, the problem with this is, Alex is a light weight when it comes to drinking, therefore, he doesn't drink all that often, and knowing Lila, she's gonna want him to drink with her, which kind of terrifies him in a club setting, who knows what can happen when you're drunk and not in your right mind then won't remember a thing when you wake up in the morning.
The end of the work day came to quickly, Alex thought as Lila quickly rushed him out of the station.
"There's this new club that opened up downtown I've been dying to go to! But the only thing is, it's a gay club if that's okay with you" Lila said, you see Lila was openly bisexual, Alex was a closeted gay to everyone including Lila.
"That's uh, that's fine, just a totally straight guy going to a gay club.." Alex said nervously. "Oookkay, well, I'll drive!" Lila said.
And they were off.
They arrived at the club, a big neon light sign outside that read "The Oasis" in rainbow lettering. The two got out of the car and headed inside. "IDs?" The bouncer standing outside asked them, both of them showing their IDs showing that they were over the age of 21. "And just to make sure, you guys know this is a gay club, right? I assume you do it's just a question I have to ask to protect the people inside" the bouncer said as he handed their IDs back to them. Lila nodded. The bouncer then let the two of them in.
They stepped inside and were hit with bright colorful lights and loud music, but not so loud where you couldn't hear the person that's 3 feet from you, which was nice cuz in most clubs you couldn't even hear someone standing a foot away from you.
Lila dragged Alex to the bar. "What can I do for you guys today?" The bartender asked nicely. "Can I get a margarita, Alex, what do you want?" Lila turned to Alex. "Uhhh something sweet?" Alex said. The bartender nodded and said "coming right up".
Alex noticed many attractive guys throughout the crowd but decided to stare at his feet. "Awe, are you shy? Hey don't worry, once you get some alcohol in you you'll loosen up a bit, and if you tell people you're straight they won't hit on you" Lila said. Alex sighed. He loved Lila, but sometimes she was a little to much.
"Here's your drinks" the bartender said, handing the two of them their drinks. Lila immediately took a drink of hers, while Alex looked at it for a second, then took a small drink.
"I'm gonna hit the dance floor, will you be okay here?" Lila asked, Alex just nodded, taking another small sip of his alcoholic beverage. When Lila left, the bartender spoke up.
"You're closeted, huh?" The bartender said as he cleaned a glass. "I uh no uh I'm not gay or anything, uhh" Alex stuttered. "You look highly uncomfortable to be here, you look terrified to even look up, now I know you're not a homophobe since you're friends with a queer, so that either means you're closeted or a straight guy who's not comfortable with his sexuality forced to be here, or something in between, plus, most queers have a gaydar" the bartender gives Alex a "you're not fooling anyone" look. "Wait...does that mean, do you think Lila knows?" Was Alex's immediate response, not to argue or anything, but to ask if his best friend knew he was gay. "Well, that depends how good her gaydar is if she has one" the bartender shrugged then went to go take someone's order.
Alex sighed and took a big swig of his drink, feeling the effects almost immediately. He saw a guy with a fairly strong build and tattoos approach him. "Hey, are you here alone?" The man asked. "No, I uh, I'm with a friend, shes uhhh" he looked around the dance floor, "she's that purple haired girl dancing with the blonde girl with pink streaks" Alex pointed out. "But she's just a friend?" The man asked. "Mhmmm, why do you ask?" Alex says. "Well, I think you're kind of cute, what's your name?" The man asked with a smirk. "Oh, I'm Alex!" Alex smiled at the tall man. "Hi Alex, I'm Samael" the man said. "Oh, like the Angel?" Alex said taking another small drink of his, he didn't know what the actual drink was called. "If you're referring to satan, then yes, it's not my real name, more of a chosen name, I don't tell strangers my real name" Samael says. "What, are you going for that rebel persona?" Alex teased and sipped on his drink. Samael laughed a little. "Oh most definitely".
The two chatted for another while, Alex slowly finishing his drink and getting another.

When Alex woke up in the morning, the first thing he noticed was his throbbing headache, then noticed he wasn't in his own bed, he looked next to him, only to see a shirtless stranger laying under the blankets next to him, the man had large angel wings tattooed on his back. It took Alex a second but he realized he was naked. He jumped out the bed only to discover a pain in his lower back, he winced. He gathered what clothes where his from the floor and quickly got dressed, he found his phone and went to check it, but it was dead. "Fuck" Alex thought to himself. He looked in the mirror on his way out of the hotel room and noticed a couple hickeys and bite marks on his neck. He got a cab and got home as quickly as he could.
Once home, Alex put his phone on the charger and got in the shower, seeing his body littered in bite marks and hickies. Alex sighed and washed himself thoroughly, wanting to get rid of whatever happened last night. He was thankful he didn't have to go into the station today. When Alex got of the shower, he dried himself then put on a pair of boxers and sweats, not caring to put a shirt on. He brushed his teeth then went into the kitchen for water.
An hour later of watching tv, there was knock on the door, Alex got up and opened it, Lila standing on the other side.
"What the hell happened to you last night!!! I've been trying to call and text you, you weren't answering!!! And what the fucked happened to you, did you have a wrestling match with a fucking leach!?!?!?" Lila said frantically and pushed her way past Alex and entering the house. "Honestly, I don't remember what happened last night, when I woke up this morning I woke up next to this random guy and my phone was dead so it's been on the charger since this morning, and could you stop yelling, I have a massive hangover" Alex said, closing the the door then walking back to the couch. "Are you limping? And what do you mean you woke up next to a random guy?....oh" everything clicked in Lila's head. "Was he handsome?" Lila smirked. "Idk, I didn't look at his face, but he had this large back tattoo of angel wings, and wait, why aren't you questioning that it's a guy?" Alex said. "Honey, the closet doors are glass" Lila crossed her arms. Alex sighed.
