The week leading up to a full moon, especially the few days prior, was always difficult for Adam. He knew what was to come and as much as he prepared for it each month things never seemed to get easier. Belle had been spending a lot of extra time at his house at his request and now he wasn’t sure how to ask her for the space he needed to keep his skeletons in the closet and make sure she didn’t get hurt. Stress lead to drinking which is why he hadn’t really been productive work wise. He’d tried to do some work from home but wasn’t proving successful. He was exhausted and already pretty before two in the afternoon. At one point he’d fallen asleep in his chair, head leaning back and arms dangling to his sides. He was woken up very suddenly when he heard the door to his home office be pushed open and jolted awake to the point he fell off of the chair and onto the floor. “Ow!” he yelled out as he hit his head on his desk as he tried to stand back up. “What the hell is with all the noise?” he asked, annoyed he was being disturbed. When he saw Claude he sighed and sat back in the chair, rubbing his tired eyes that had dark circles beneath them. “You better not have come here to bitch at me because I’m not in the mood.”

Adam was not a fan of this bonfire one bit. There were far too many people there and he kept losing Belle in the crowd. After he lost her again he went to the bar to get them drinks, shooting her a text to let her know where he was. Luckily for him he found his friend there as well. “Didn’t think something like this was quite up your alley,” he said as he put a hand on his friend’s shoulder and laughed. “You look miserable. Just...have another drink and lighten up.” He got the bartenders attention and held three fingers up, indicating he needed three drinks. When the drinks were in front of them Adam handed one to Claude and held the other two in his hands. “One of these is not for me,” he clarified.

Adam groaned at the mention of Blaise. The man sure had a knack for causing trouble and dragging his friends into it. Sure, Adam had technically done the same on a larger scale but this all seemed so petty and it was bothering him. Blaise was an idiot, he’d thought to himself, and the fact that he had hurt Celine pissed him off to no end. When Claude had found Adam passed out on his couch with an empty bottle on the floor he thought the man was there to lecture him. It seemed to be the opposite though. Groaning, he sat up and looked at his friend. “I have a feeling I know what you’re talking about,” he told him. “He’s a fucking idiot.”

Adam was at every annual Pridemania since his friend had come out to him. He wanted Claude to know he supported him and would always be by his side no matter what. Adam wasn’t very vocal when it came to how he felt, but sometimes he was able to do small things for others to show he actually cared. This was kind of one of those times, he supposed. Most of the drinks they were offering were a lot sweeter than what he was used to drinking but he managed to find something he liked and stuck with it. After getting another drink with Claude he said to the man, “there’s a lot of people here.” He scrunched his nose up. Adam wasn’t very keen on large events like this but was trying his best to enjoy himself as he could. “Do you want to eat something? Or do you want to do something else?”
