Will Our Love Survive? (Filip Forsberg fanfic)

Chapter Three: The Preds Day Off

Alexis's POV
I smiled and stepped off the private jet, breathing in the sweet scent of the warm Nashville air. The Preds finally had a day off, and we got to to go back to Nashville. "Home sweet home" A voice said from behind me.
I turned around and saw James coming down the steps of the jet, with a black backpack swung over one shoulder. "It's nice to be back" I said.
"Sure is" James agreed.

(at Alexis's school)

Filip's POV
Out of the corner of eye, I saw a few girls eyeing me up and down, making me very uncomfortable. James, who was walking beside me, shot a glare at the girls, making them run away.
"Thanks, I was feeling so disgusted" I said. "No prob, they were creeps anyway" James said laughing.
We walked down a long hallway and to the gym, where Alexis was going to be singing. On our way back from Tampa, she told the team that there was a talent show going on at her high school. And being the great friends we are, the whole team agreed to come.
We opened the heavy door that led to the gym. Luckily, no one recognized us as we stepped inside and found our seats. "Alright, now welcome to the Father Ryan talent show. Opening up the show, is very talented. Please welcome to the stage: Alexis Summers!" The principal said as the curtains opened. Alexis stood on the stage, looking gorgeous. She was wearing a Nirvana shirt, skinny jeans, and her black VANS. "Ok, the song that I'm going to be singing for you all is one that means a lot to me. It's about being an outcast, being different from everyone. And it how it feels to be shunned by everyone. Hopefully you all can relate. This song is by my favorite band 5 Seconds Of Summer.
This song is called "Reject". I hope you all enjoy". She said smiling.
Suddenly, a loud guitar riff blared from the speakers. To be honest, I actually like this song. So far.

Verse 1:
"Back at school, they all thought I was an outcast car crash, "hopeless fool" they said to me. And my girlfriend said I messed up will I ever grow up, in the end, I'm not gonna"

(Chorus)
"What was I thinkin, everyone sees it, it's not a secret that I'm just a reject.
Sick of the system, don't wanna hear it, it's not a secret that I'm just a reject"

Verse 2:
"My teacher said I was mentally disabled so unstable, so I'd stay in bed all day. Save your breath, you can talk at me but I'm not listening, this is a test that I'm probably failing"

*Chorus*
"What was I thinkin everyone sees it, it's not a secret that I'm just a reject. Sick of the system, don't wanna hear it, it's not a secret that I'm just a reject"

"They try to save me but I'm too far gone, and they call me crazy so I play along, and you wanna change me but I'm on my oh oh woah own. Da da da duh da da da duh."

*Instrumental*

*Repeat Chorus*

(After the performance)
Shea's POV
"That was amazing!" I said smiling as Alexis walked off stage. "Thanks Weber" She said giving me a quick hug before walking away and sitting down next to Filip. I saw Filip's face break out into a huge grin while she was talking to him. He must really like her, I thought. But I swear, if that boy breaks her heart, I'm going to be very mad. Don't hurt her Filip, don't do it.

(Later that night)

James's POV
We decided to go out to eat in honor of Alexis's amazing performance at her school. The great thing about Nashville is that no one really pays attention to you. It's great news if you're a famous celebrity or athlete.
It's not that the team hates the fans, we all love them. But it's just nice to lie low for a little bit, you know?
It's great to just do normal things for a day.

A/N: I'm going to make Ch. 4 the second part of this:) sorry for cutting it short. I am almost done with school! No more tests, homework, etc.
Just relaxation and rest😊
