The minute Julius moved, Alver snapped his lavender gaze toward him, resuming to tense up as he neared and dragged the taller man to another room. Once they were, Alver removed himself from the blonde and gave them a comfortable distance while smoothing out his clothes. [color=silver]"Language."[/color] he scolded immediately when 'crap' was uttered before continuing to listen to what the beefy man had to say. The pale man opened his mouth to retort against Julius' words, but closed it as the shorter man raised a finger of silence as he pulled out his phone. Honestly, Alver was unsure why exactly they were so determined to get him in on this plan. He was sure, that the others would be enough to comfort Zac, and were probably better company. Safer. Not dangerous... not a waste of space. Pathetic. Disgusting. A walking disaster. Abnormal. Everything he wasn't. He had his reasons to keep his distance from the small girly boy. He was safer that way. Better without him. They all were. So they should just forget him. Let him disappear amongst foggy memories. Alver thought they would by now, as it had been so long ago now. Listening to Julius read off what apparently was Zachary's message, a soft melancholy frown crossed the tall man's ghostly face. Honestly, Zachary was still such a kid. A baby. Who needed someone to hold his hand, and now he wanted his childhood crew back to do it. He made it difficult to say 'no' when it was for his own good. Yet as much as the albino wanted to be firm in his 'no' he was finding it harder now. A part of him did want to help, take care of Zac and get him back on his feet. Alver wasn't confident he could though, but he still felt that way. The pale man took the card, giving it a brief examination as his lavender pale gaze narrowed thoughtfully. Alver then flinched slightly when Julius raised his hand, as if preparing to be physically hit, but his childhood friend only placed it on his shoulder in the usual friendly manner. Silently looking at Julius and slightly following as he bid farewell and left with Zachary, Alver watched before shutting the door and locking it before giving a deep exasperated sigh before looking at the business card again. There was no way he could go. Right? But it was only for one night. And it was at night time, not like he had to worry about daylight. What was he even suppose to do though? Socializing as grownups was a lot harder compared to children. Especially when attempting to comfort and show a former friend a good time. How in cucumbers was he supposed to accomplish that? Him, the least social person probably in this town? Maybe he would just sleep on it... Giving another sigh, Alver went back to his bedroom, placing the business card on his nice stand before getting into bed. Curling up and cuddling under the covers. Staring at the ceiling thoughtfully as he pondered on what just occurred. Absently petting a grey feline that had decided to jump up and curl up beside him. Closing his eyes, he grabbed one of his other pillows and pressed it against his face as he continually tried to force himself to just go to sleep. Darkness rolled around, and the pale man continued to lie there. Thinking. He didn't feel like working at the moment. Another sigh escaped him before he rolled out of bed and grabbed his glasses and the business card. Slipping the glasses on as he headed upstairs to his work room. Sitting at his desk, he turned on the computer. Logging into his email, he frowned as he stared at the business card before giving another deep sigh. [color=silver]"It's just one night. One night. That's all. Nothing more. I can do it. Just be the mature adult that you are and entertain them to the best of your ability. Just one night. Then I can go back to being into the darkness. Miky will be there... but that's okay just be a charming mature adult like some anime prince. Or something. It'll be fine, it's been years. I can do this. Just one night.. just for the good of a past friend and to help them get on their feet a little."[/color] He murmured, unnoticing slightly hyperventilating. Taking a deep breath, he started typing and emailed Julius. [color=silver][I]"Alright. One night only. I'll come."[/I][/color] he typed before sending it before he quickly changed his mind. Pausing he tried thinking of the possibilities of this night out. What in the flubber were they going to do? Glancing toward the immensely large collection of anime, the white haired man paused before standing and started browsing. Taking out certain manga books and quickly started to do 'research' to the best of his abilities. Somewhat prepare himself for tomorrow night.
