Chapter Text

Outside of chat...

"Поет, I'm back!"
Mischa peered his head back into his bedroom holding a bottle of vodka in one hand and two plastic cups in the other. Noel looked up from his phone, blinked a few times and, inevitably, squinted to see what he's holding.
"Is drink, поет. Do you want it?" Mischa asked, walking over to Noel and sat on his bed, offering the drink towards him.

"Oh, I uh... Never've been drunk before. But sure," he muttered, half of him excited and the other half a lot more nervous than he expected. He sat up and scooted right up beside Mischa. Noel could've sworn he saw a smile on Mischa's face, but he shrugged it off and went to take the bottle from him, startled when Mischa pulled back instead.
"Since you light weight, I'll give you little bit, ok?" Mischa told Noel before muttering under his breath, "I don't want to hurt you."
Noel chuckled softly.
"Wow, how considerate of you."
"What? I speak truth!"

They both snickered, unsure of why. Mischa handed him one of the cups he brought and, like he had said, gave him barely half of a cup full and proceeded to take a swig of the alcohol straight from the bottle. He couldn't help but stare as Noel raised the cup to his thin lips and sip cautiously, shamefully watching his adam's apple bob up and down.
"Uh... Is there something on my face?" Noel puzzled, leading Mischa to clear his throat, turn his head, and take another swig out of the bottle.

"Is nothing, поет."
"You always call me that."
Mischa quirked his head back towards Noel. Was he always this pretty?
"Call you what?"
"Y'know, the uh... The nnnn one," Noel sounded out. Mischa snorted before saying,
"Поет?"
"Yeah, noet."
"No no, not noet, поет."
Noel blinked at him, trying to process what Mischa's saying.

"П…поет," Noel attempted, unsure of whether the growing heat on his face is from embarrassment, the liquor, or the way Mischa's face lit up in excitement as he said that. Safe to assume it's all three.
"Yeah, поет! Good job. It means... Uhm," Mischa's cheery tone quickly faded away, donning something a lot quieter and unbeknownst to anything that's came out of Mischa's mouth.
"It means poet, you are one right?" Mischa said, albeit very bashfully. This time, the heat rising quickly into Noel's face was certainly because of Mischa. Why was he getting so flustered over this? He quickly finished what was in his cup before speaking.
"O-oh, yeah, I am. You... Actually paid attention to my introduction when you first got into the choir?"
"Yeah? Poetry isn't to far from writing lyric, so you were interesting."

"Suppose your right," Noel sighed, looking into the now empty cup. Am I just interesting? he thought. His woe was immediately swept away as Mischa took him hand to fill his cup back up halfway. A simple gesture and a "Drink" got him to immediately take a sip, coughing harshly from drinking the strong beverage.

"Поет? Are you okay?"
"Ugh, yeah I'm fine... I swallowed too quickly," Noel chuckled out before groaning and holding his head in own of his hands and muttering, "i've also got a headache too..."
Mischa quickly responded, "I'll drive you home then."
"What?! No, you've been drinking even more than I have!"
"Then stay."

The silence that followed rung in both of their ears. Regret immediately flooded all of Mischa's senses, but he couldn't bring himself to retract his offer.

He even wished, deep down, Noel would accept it.

"W-what about your parents?"
"They would never step foot in here. Plus, I am in basement; they couldn't hear anything if I wanted them to."
Noel's thoughts were scrambled everywhere most telling him that he shouldn't fall for such a stupid cliché, the other side practically bitch slapping him and telling him to live a little.

His panic was quickly blown over by scenarios of Monique about to leave her current suitor's house, the air smelling of lit cigarettes and sex, when he suddenly takes her wrist from behind her, basically pleading to her to stay the night. She is taken aback from the sudden offer, yet drawn sinfully to the husky man behind her, the tang of alcohol on his lips, the sultry but stoic gaze that burnt her skin wherever his eyes had been aimed. God, this would be so good for Noel's next fanfic. Setting those thoughts aside, she breathed out a, "Fine, if you say so." That came out a little more hostile than intended, but Mischa didn't seem to notice. He did, though.

But he liked it.
