Alexander chuckled along with her statement, raising his drink in a toasting manner “I think that’s the key, not understanding and being okay with it. I stopped trying because it made me tired” the agent shook his head at himself, only to shoot his companion a grateful grin in response to her next statement. “Thank you, Aanya. I also enjoy your company, it’s nice seeing you away from the precinct and the uniforms and the…rectitude of it all. If you ever need a drinking buddy, you’ve got my number” the blond offered with a smirk. “I’m fine, I’ll probably grab something with my roommate once the party’s over” he shrugged, afraid the food might not agree with his already upset stomach. As the brunette told him how her night had been so far, Alex lifted an eyebrow playfully, nudging her gently just as their drinks arrived. “Nice. I’m glad you’re having fun and meeting new people, Aanya. Did you like this handsome fellow Kai or are you still looking forward to meeting more people?” he questioned with a smirk that quickly vanished once the spotlight was on him. With a sigh, he took his yellow bracelet out of his jacket. “My love life… how much time do you have on your hands?” he chuckled, shrugging “It’s— there’s someone, I was too conflicted to choose red, but it should’ve been red.”
Aanya smirked back to his offer about being her drinking buddy. “I’d love for you to be my drinking buddy and just my buddy in general,” she responded, giving his arm a gentle squeeze with her hand before letting it fall to her side as they waited for their drinks. “Yes, I did really like him, he seemed wonderful and even though he was wearing a yellow wristband, I couldn’t help but flirt and he was flirting back,” she said, flashing a grin his way before her eyes spotted their drinks. She handed him his and took hers as she listened to his words. “I’ll always have time for you, Alex. Tell me everything, I want to know. But first-,” she held her drink up and clinked it against his. “Cheers to a great night, my friend.” She raised the glass to her lips and took a sip before licking her lips and smiling.
