Miss Jackson || Brendon Urie fanfic

11. Brendon

I watched her leave. I'd love her to stay with me, but I know she'll never love me in the same way I love her. She wants Tonight, and I can see she's not very confident. She probably thinks "she's not good enough" for Tonight. Well, let me tell you one thing: she's way too good for Tonight. She doesn't deserve Alex. Not that I do either. She's such a precious person, and I'm just a fuckboy. Was. Fuck it. Let's just say I don't deserve her. Still want her though.

*** [Sorry for all these time skips in the story]

We have to perform our little song today... This morning, Alex was already dying because she is so stressed. I tried to calm her, but I don't know for how long it worked. I gave her some of the tips that help me but still... Yes, I'm worried. And yes, I also need tricks to reduce stress, even though I play a lot of shows. Not much I can do about it, huhn?

I'm driving back to the school. It's a bit early, but I don't like being late, not for this. I know how much this means to Alex, and I want her to enjoy every second to the fullest and not be stressed. We'll just have an amazing time, or at least, I hope we do.

I park my car and go inside to have a little talk with Mrs. Wilson to kill the time. Little later, the bell rings and I rush over to the music room, where I wait outside for Alex.

I see her walking towards me, but she doesn't notice me. She's in a deep conversation with someone, but who? I keep trying to see the face of the person she's talking to, but I'm only capable of seeing it when they're no more than six feet away from me. It's Tonight. She's talking to Tonight, laughing.

They look up when they reach me. Tonight looks at me with disgust, while I give her a warning, angry stare.

"Well, Brendon, I didn't expect to see you here."

"Let's say I didn't expect you either. Can we talk, please? It won't take long. Just a minute or so."

Tonight nods, but Alex protests. "Bren, we need to play?"

I look at her with a soft smile. "No worries, girl. I'll be back in no time. Ask Mrs. Brown to wait a minute for me. She'll do it."

Alex nods and walks into the class room. I take Tonight's arm and drag her away from the door, Alex is not supposed to see nor hear this.

"If you're planning on breaking her heart I'll kill you, do you understand?"

"Why are you asking? Because I broke yours?" She spats.

I push her against the wall, my hands on either side of her head, stopping her from running away.

"First off, you didn't break my heart. I wasn't in love with you, I was a fuckboy, I used you for sex, to keep my popularity up. Which, seen from now, I shouldn't have done, but it's too late for that now. And I'd like to tell you that, unlike you, I actually care about Alex. I don't want a person like you breaking her precious heart."

"Why would you- oh God, you're in love with her! Madly in love with her, isn't it?"

Yes, yes I am. "No, I just feel the need to protect her, the same way Dallon does."

"Bullshit. I see the sparks in your eyes Brenny-boi. You're in love with her."

"So what if I am? It doesn't change a thing, does it? Only the fact that you'll hurt her even more, because you know it hurts me."

"No, I won't. Why would I break her heart? She's so beautiful, I wouldn't do that to her, would I?"

"You're a cheater, always been, and you'll always be. But listen up girl, I'm watching you. And if you break her, I'll be here to scramble the pieces back together and fix her. But be sure I'm going to kill you after that."
