To Zac's surprise, the only person who hadn't arrived yet was Genie. Everyone else was here. Excitement filled the man child as he watched everyone interact. He couldn't help but feel slightly nostalgic. 

Alver was a knight in shining armor. [i][color=dodgerblue]I may need to give him a change of clothes...[/color][/i]

Micah was a... a pink tint was strongly noticeable on the pale-skinned, pretty boy as his senpai tripped in a wedding dress. His reflexes weren't as fast as Alver though. [i][color=dodgerblue]Uh, I didn't know Micks was into that sorta thing... He looks good... but he may need a change of clothes too...[/color][/i]. Zac had no clue of the background and tension between those two. Alver was quite the eloquent talker nowadays, but Micah was pretty much the same tiny man he knew years ago, with a wiser look in his heterochromia stare, [i][color=dodgerblue]Hahah, Alver is pretty tall, right Miki?[/color][/i].

His heart suddenly dropped with the site of Niles and his girl companion. They looked beautiful together. Sure, Zac didn't know what they were referencing but even without the costume, those two [i]should[/i] be standing together. The woman was absolutely stunning and Niles truly did grow to be such a charmer and probably a lady killer. A royal couple without a doubt. 

With blush still apparent on his face, he brought his hand to his chest and diverted his stare away from Niles and to... Rebecca?! [i][color=dodgerblue]What the hell are you wearing!?[/color][/i] This was a costume party, yes, but damn that's ballsy. She seemed to be thoroughly impressed by the man clad in lace, silk, and white. A grin curved on Zac's face when Alver accidentally called Niles 'NiNi'. Maybe rebuilding old friendships was a possible? 

Zac's world and thoughts stopped when a sudden person charged into him or well, tripped into him. A little gender bent Naruto? [i][color=dodgerblue]OH! Is this Jules' girlfriend?[/color][/i] Out of habit of catching Scarlet on multiple occasions, Zac wrapped his arms around Erica to make sure she was stable. 

"[color=dodgerblue]Are you okay?[/color]" He whispered. She had a lingering smell of delicious alcohol emitting from her mouth, which gave him a craving for his own drink. Erica was definitely ahead of the game in terms of getting drunk. At least she's enjoying herself. While holding the small girl, Zac gave Jules a thumbs up for bringing liquor, "[color=dodgerblue]You always got my back, man![/color]" This party was surprisingly more nerdy than he expected...

Meanwhile, Vince stood silent and took pictures of everyone, primarily Mikaela, who fascinated him to no end.

Clapping to herself, Gabriella happily cheered at the sight of old faces and new, "[color=82ca9d]I'm so glad you all could make it! We can play catch up while we eat. I haven't seen you guys in years![/color]" Her boyfriend was aware that she probably didn't inform any of the guests that she transitioned during highschool, so with a low voice, while snapping another picture of cute Micah, he muttered, "[color=gray]That's Gabriel, by the way. Or well, now Gabriella. Basically Zac if he were a girl.[/color]"

"[color=dodgerblue]Hey![/color]" 

"[color=gray]You know it's true. You just have to put extensions on and dress up,[/color]" the male pirate teased. Zac would never admit he had modeled for Vince with his sister as a girl for the photographer's site and personal projects... nor would he admit that he didn't mind dressing up as a girl occasionally. 

Ignoring the teasing, the dark haired man ushered his friends to follow him as he led them to one of the [url=http://munchies-images.vice.com/wp_upload/JOLIET-buttonmash-final-7738.jpg?crop=1xw:0.84375xh;*,*&resize=700:*&output-format=jpeg&output-quality=90] eating areas[/url], which was surprisingly fairly nice for a Entertainment center. DADDZ FUN ZONE spoke modern, high-tech play land for kids all ages, but strongly caters to young adults that want to make sure they still have their youthful spunk in them.  This room in particular had all the old arcade game machines like Pacman, Streetfighter II, Starfire, and etc. There were workers 18+ old stationed throughout the building, chatting and playing games (like air hockey) as they waited for the show to start. Jules had paid more than enough for electricity so that even the workers could enjoy themselves. This place truly felt like a large party. Mr. Cooper left a message on the wall for Zac: [i]Thanks for good business! Behave and have fun! Tell me what you think before Sunday.[/i]

A couple of staff members already set a long table with appetizers and subs, something light but filling enough for them so they wouldn't spend too much time eating. Plus, Zac had surprises for later. 

With Erica stuck to his hip and the pretty boy unable to pull away from her, Zac smiled at his guests, "[color=dodgerblue]Please! Sit wherever. The coolers are over there.[/color]" He motioned to an archway that led to an unattended bar, with two coolers in front of it. One with beer and the other one with non-alcoholic beverages. 

"[color=dodgerblue]If you'll excuse me for a sec...[/color]" With all his power, he squirmed out of Erica's grasp and gave her a heartwarming smile, "[color=dodgerblue]I'll be back.[/color]"

Leaving the room, he headed toward the empty kitchen and took a deep breath in, "[color=dodgerblue]Be cool Zac! This night will go fine. Stop being so nervous.[/color]" Going to the fridge, he opened it to reveal a birthday cake for Alver that said: [i]Happy hallo-early-bday, Alver![/i] Hopefully, Al didn't mind the flavor. Zac picked a neutral kind of cake that could be liked by many people. If people didn't want it, there were always an assortment of cookies and cupcakes. 

Nodding to himself, he closed the fridge and went to a cabinet where he hid his own bottle of liquor, a shot glass, and his backpack, which held who knows what! Pouring tequila in the glass, he sighed and fixedly stared at his poison. [i]Bottoms up[/i]. One shot. Two shot... maybe he should hold off on the third? Putting the liquor away, he shook his hands and prepared himself to be an awesome host. Taking off his hat, he placed it on the counter and ran his hands through his hair, thinking about what he'd say next to his old friends. 

Words were important if he wanted to see them more than just for today... 

Meanwhile, Gabriella was trying to get Vince to take her picture with everyone. "[color=82ca9d]Before you all leave, we'll need to do a major group picture! And then a smaller one for the old comrades. Maybe when Zac is back from wherever he went.[/color]"

"[color=gray]The game plan is we eat, Zac has a little something for his old buds, then we all go wherever and enjoy ourselves. Everything this place has to offer was paid for by Julius, so no need to worry about limiting yourselves.[/color]" 

Hugging her boyfriend, Gabriella lovingly cooed, "[color=82ca9d]My brother put a lot of thought into this... sure, he's not perfect and still is a kid at heart, but he worked his ass off just to get this place to ourselves, minus all the workers, but you get what I mean.[/color]"
