Albus enjoyed his time bartending when he wasn't auditioning for a show. He got to play a character and he got to meet great people. It was a job that he thought everyone should have at least once in their life. It was an exciting lifestyle and he got to flirt with lots of boys every night. It was great.

Only tonight, it was one of the slower nights and there weren't a lot of people around. There were some showtunes playing in the background that he was singing along to, but other than that, there really wasn't anything going on. He looked up when a boy walked in, looking very unsure of himself. The other boy was actually kind of adorable.

He waited until the boy approached the bar, which was several minutes after he'd come in and stood in a corner, then smiled at him. "Hello, babe. What can I get you to drink?" He gave him his best charming smile.

Scorpius felt nervous. He had just discovered that he was gay and he thought this was a good place to start, but he felt so... intimidated. There was loud music playing that he didn't recognize and men dancing to it. And now a very attractive bartender was calling him babe. He hesitated. Why did he have to be gay. "I.. I don't know." He told him. "What do you have?"

This was too adorable. Albus gave the boy a menu and looked him over. "I can make you anything you want. I promise." He glanced at another person coming up for a drink. "I'll be back." He promised him, then walked over and filled the other person's order as quickly as he could, then slid back down to see if the boy wanted anything. "Decided?"

Scorpius looked down at the menu with all the weird names for drinks, then thought about what his grandfather liked to drink. "I think I'll just take some scotch." He told him, taking a seat at the bar. "I think that's good, right?" It wasn't too gay.

Albus laughed at that and shook his head. "I'll make you a real drink." He told him, then made him a drink that was much better than scotch. He gave it to him, then watched him take a sip, grinning. "You'll thank me later. No one here drinks scotch. This isn't a gentleman's club. It's a gay bar." He crossed his arms over his chest. "I'm Albus."

"I.." Scorpius liked the drink. He bit his bottom lip. "I'm Scorpius. Thank you. For the drink."

"You can make it up to me later." Albus promised him, then winked when his favourite song came on. "Excuse me." He ran to the stage and started to perform it with three other men, dancing and having a laugh.

Scorpius took a long sip from the drink Albus had made him, which was fruity and only burned a tiny bit, right at the very end. It was way easier to get down than scotch or wine had ever been. He didn't understand how someone could throw themselves onto a stage and start singing and dancing like Albus was, but it was really nice to watch and listen to and maybe he could just spend the night hovering at the bar.

He'd figured out that he was gay, but he didn't know what he wanted to do about it yet, and maybe letting a cute, singing bartender make him drinks for a night was a good way to ease into everything. Coming into the bar and ordering something had been enough of a challenge on its own. When the performance ended, he clapped along with most of the rest of the bar.

	Albus took his bows and kissed a couple of the boys he'd performed with on the cheek. He smiled and walked back over to where his bar was and poured a couple of drinks, sliding them to some of the regulars, then walked over to where the new boy was. Scorpius. "What did you think?" Albus asked, gesturing towards the stage. "Do you know any showtunes?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Showtunes? Scorpius looked up at the stage and laughed. "No, not really," he said, shaking his head and trying another sip of his drink. Hiding in it was kind of nice. "I thought it was really good. Your performance. You all look like you're having a lot of fun."

He smiled at Albus. "I'm not really the sort of person who likes to be the center of attention. I'd rather watch, you know?"

	Albus looked at Scorpius and grinned. It was a slow enough night. He could afford to do this. He shook his head and walked around the bar, taking Scorpius's hand. "No one ever got anywhere in life by hiding." He pointed out, then wrapped an arm around Scorpius's waist, pulling him close. "Would Ariel have ever gotten Prince Eric if she'd stayed in the ocean?"

Scorpius glanced around the bar and then at Albus again. "That's Disney, right?" he asked. "I mean, I can work my way up to coming out of the water. I don't need to jump out right away. I'm sure her sisters were all pretty happy under the sea."

He liked being pressed this close to Albus, but it was still intimidating. Albus was obviously outgoing and comfortable and totally used to being gay. Scorpius had no idea. Scorpius hadn't even kissed a boy before.

"I'm sure her sisters were happy to be under the sea, because they weren't as strong as Ariel." Albus pointed out. "And I bet they were really jealous that Ariel could be apart of both of their worlds. She could be who she wanted to be and still be apart of what they wanted her to be."

He smiled. "Should I use a Mulan reference? Because her family definitely wouldn't have been happy if she hadn't taken what she wanted."

Scorpius really did not want to think about family and how his would feel about all this. They would not be like Mulan's family. He was the oldest twin and he was gay. Really gay because he really liked being pressed against Albus like this. "I think I get it. You think I should be more out-going."

He looked at Albus for a moment, not sure how to actually accomplish the being less shy thing. "What do I need to do? I can't sing. Can I finish my drink before you make me do whatever you're going to make me do?"

	Albus couldn't help but chuckle. "I suppose I'll let you finish your drink. Since you seem to want it really badly." He told him, then kissed his cheek softly and pulled back. "How do you like it?" He asked, hopping over the bar to the other side. "The drink." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Scorpius blushed when Albus kissed his cheek, even though he felt silly for doing it. "I like it a lot," he said, smiling at Albus. "I think I'll probably need another one before the end of the night." He forced himself to relax a lot, leaning against the bar. "I've never been to a gay bar before."

	Albus looked at his brother talking to Scorpius for a moment, then pulled off his work shirt so that he was only in his tank top. Maybe if Scorpius saw his muscles, he wouldn't look as interested in his brother as he was at that moment. "Did you find anyone?" Albus asked, grinning and then shot his brother a look.

	"There's nothing you wouldn't do." Albus pointed out before he slid his hand into Scorpius's and led him out of the pub. He smiled at the other boy for a moment, then led him across the street and into the building he lived in. Albus pushed opened his door and smiled at Scorpius as he stepped inside. "This is my place." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Scorpius sat on the couch, smiling at Albus. "Your singing was really good," he promised. "I bet you get a lot of solos in your choir. And being a bartender is such a cool job." Scorpius wished he was cool and gay and lived in a nice flat with his brother. "I have a brother too, but we're twins and neither of us works at a bar." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	alboos 2013-08-21 03:16 pm UTC (link)
	"I always wanted a twin." Albus admitted as he looked back at Scorpius. "We could get you a job washing dishes at the bar if you really want to. That leads into getting a job as a bartender." He smiled at Scorpius briefly, then walked over to him and leaned in and kissed him softly on the lips. "Do you want something to drink?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Scorpius wanted to touch him. Albus was very, very okay with that. He smiled at the other boy and nodded, brushing their lips together as he undid Scorpius's trousers. "You can do whatever you want." Albus promised him, then bit at Scorpius's bottom lip. "Anything." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That... Jesus." Albus let out a soft breath and then kissed Scorpius again. Tipsy or not, Scorpius's hand felt good as it stroked him, arching his hips back into his hand. Scorpius was perfect. How had he gotten so lucky? "That feels good, Scorpius." Albus promised, then undid the other boy's trousers and pulled him out of them, starting to stroke him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Albus gasped softly against Scorpius's lips and then laughed. "You're not so bad yourself." He promised, tightening his grip on Scorpius's cock, starting to stroke him faster. He had a need to get Scorpius off and to show him how good this could be. How could he could be for him. Albus wanted a boyfriend. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
