Not Another Love Story (ICONic Boyz Fan Fiction)

To Stay The Night (Chapter 14)

*Alexa’s P.O.V.*

We waled back towards our houses in silence, our hands intertwined. I awaited the once thing that I knew was gonna happen, I just wasn’t sure when.

Me being me I didn’t really like the lack of sound around me so I attempted to start a conversation. “Do you think your parents would be okay with me staying at your house for the night? Because I won’t if you don’t think they will.” I looked over at him to see him just looking at me. “Oh, I’m okay with staying at my house tonight if you would rather me not over either, I’m fine not going over. You don’t have to let me if you don’t want to...” My voice slowly faded away as I rambled on.

He chuckled at me then lifted our intertwined hands in front of us. “Oh course I don’t want you to come over.” The dropped out still intertwined hands back down at our sides.

“Oh, okay.” I said, awkwardly trying to pull my hand away from his. He shook his head and chuckled again.

“I was kidding Alexa. I’m perfectly okay with you coming over. And my parents won’t care if you come over. They’d probably be happy to see a new face at the house. I rarely bring over anyone other then they boyz and Christian and,” He cut himself off and looked down at the ground, then back up at me. “Yeah, the boyz and Christian.” I nodded my head then looked back down at the side walk.

‘He was about to say someone else. I don’t really want to put whatever we may have on the line by asking.’ I looked at our intertwined hands.

Once we were 3 houses down from my house I saw the small crowd that was standing outside of Christian’s house. “What is everyone doing there?” I asked.

“We were looking for you.” He shrugged.

“Why?” I looked up at him.

“‘Cause your brother came over to Christian’s house asking if we’d seen you and when we said not after we walked you back after ICON he started getting worried. So we volunteered to help look for you, then we called basically everyone.” He shrugged once again, as if it were no big deal to basically call the whole town to help look for a girl that had just moved into the town yesterday. Does it happen often?

“Oh.” Is all I managed to say. “Wait, Jacob?” I asked.

“No. Your other brother. Jonny.” He said sarcastically. “Yes Jacob, why?”

“Uh, nothing.” I shook my head and we stepped into the sidewalk and into the crowed of people.

I was taken back when my hand what ripped from Mikey’s because someone had tackled me in a hug. After they had finally let go of the hug I looked to see that it was my brother that was hugging me. “Nice to see you too Jacob.” I said jokingly.

“Next time can’t you just run to your room and lock the door. I mean that won’t happen again. But it it did. Hypothetically speaking.” I rolled my eyes and slightly pushed him away.

“Sure.” I stuck my tongue out at him. “Why were you so worried anyways?” It seamed like after I asked that, everyone that had been standing in the crowd, turned their attention to me and Jacob’s conversation. Including Mikey, who was standing slightly behind Jacob, and staring straight at me. “I always walked out of the house without saying anything and went to town, or the park, or Kenzy’s house. Why was this different?”

“Because. There were different circumstances for you walking out this time. Much different then when we were back at hom-” He looked down for a minute. “When we were back at the other house.” With that he walked to our ‘house’ and walked inside. Moments later my mother came running outside.

The first thing she did was run up to me and hug me. But I don’t think that work out for her as well as she thought it would. When she tried to hug me I just put my hands up and pushed her away, shaking my head ‘no’. “Hun, I really sorry. I did-” I cut her off by shaking my head again.

“That doesn’t work this time!” I quietly yelled at her.

“W-what? What are you talking about?”

“I let you do it every time. Giving me a hug and saying your sorry doesn’t work anymore! That is way over used and I’ve fallen for it every time! I’M NOT LETTING IT WORK THIS TIME.” Everyone in the crowd went silent again and everyone was once again staring. But this time Mikey was right behind me holding my, indicating to me that he was there.

“B-but I’m really sorry. I didn’t mean for it to happen. It just happened.” She pleaded. I’m pretty sure it was mostly the fact that her new reputation in this twon could be ruined if she didn’t hide this.

“Like I said. Sorry doesn’t work anymore. It’s much too over used. And it doesn’t work like that mother. Things happen because you make them.” I said harshly.

“DON’T YOU DARE SPEAK LIKE THAT TO ME.” Her raisign her voice at me started to really scare me again, I turned and hid my face in Mikey’s shoulder and he wrapped his arm around me. “I KNOW I DID IT AND, YES IT MAY HAVE BEEN ON PERPOS BUT YOU DES-” She cut herself off and looked at the fact that every one was now either staring at me, because I was hiding in Mikey’s shoulder, or her because she scared me enough to make my hid.

I looked up to see that she was slowly walking back to the house, without saying another word.

Mikey slid his hand back down so he was holding my hand again and started to lead me to the edge of the crowd. He stopped in front of a couple that was just standing there, staring at me with a confused face.

“Mom, dad. This is Alexa. AS you have noticed.” He announced. “Alexa this is my mom and dad.” He said, motioning to the couple.

“Hi.” I said awkwardly. His mom looked down at our hands then back up at Mikey. Giving him a slight glare then looked back at me. I felt Mikey pull his hand away slowly, then he looked down and started to mess around with a rock that was on the ground with his foot.

Mr. Fusco cleared his through then started to speak. “Well then. Right now I doubt that you really want to talk about what just happened probably.” I shook my head slightly signaling a ‘no’ to answer him.

“Well, since that happened, do you have somewhere else you are going to stay tonight?” Mrs. Fusco asked sweetly. Once again I shook my head meaning ‘no’, not really wanting to speak. “Well I bet Nicholett wouldn’t mind you staying with her tonight. You can go grab some clothes for tomorrow, then you can meet us at the house. Okay hun?” She offered sweetly. I nodded my head meaning ‘yes’ then thanked her quietly.

The way she was just treating me reminded me of how my mother used to treat me.
