Alex's P.O.V

"Thank you for having us!"

We finish the interview with our towns local radio station before shaking their hands and exiting the studio.
Approaching the car, we immediately notice fans behind the gates as well as cameras pointed at us. I'm really not used to this yet.
We hear an array of questions and comments being shouted from the fans.

"What day are you guys moving to Hollywood?!"

"Jacob and Alex are you guys dating?! I ship Jalex!"

"JALEX IS LIFE!"

"MATTLYN IS GOALS!"

"I LOVE YOU GUYS. RHYTHMIZERS RULE!"

"PFFFT I SHIP BRALEX!"

"How do you feel about seeing Daniel again Alex?"

The last question throws me off guard as I turn around and abruptly gasp, being lightly shoved into the large SUV by one of the security guards.
I squeeze my eyes shut and run my hands through my hair stressfully because I know for a fact I heard the last one in my head.

"You okay?" Jacob asks, placing his hand on top of mine comfortingly as the vehicle begins moving through the crowds.
I can already feel them taking pictures of us in this position, damn we need to get the windows tinted.
"Yeah I just, I'm just tired" I say shaking my head then placing my hand on top of his before looking out the window.

"Yes mum I've packed my hairbrush"

I say for the millionth time yet my mum still continued to interrogate me,
"Have you got a spare one?" She asks and I throw my head back smiling,
"Are you sure you're gonna be okay?" She then asks worriedly.

I place my hand on her shoulders and smile,
"Mum. I'll be fine, I love you so much okay?" I say as she drops her shoulders.
"I know honey. I love you too, more then you could ever know. I just can't believe my beautiful little baby girl is growing up. I know things have been hard since your dad left and I'm so happy you've pulled through like this" she said smiling, tears streaming down her face.

My dad left us whilst I was going through my depression. It just made things a million times harder.

"Mum, you'll be fine, you're the strongest woman I know, you're my mum after all" I say smiling causing her to lightly laugh through her tears as they now run down my face.
"I love you Alex" she says before engulfing me in one last tight hug.
"I love you too mum" I whisper before letting go and walking out with all my belongings.

Our car was waiting for us and the driver loaded our belongings in.
In the car were the rest who I guess had just said goodbye to their parents as there were tears staining their face. I wiped mine as I entered the car. I looked out of the window and blew a kiss to my mum and then waved as she stood outside the front of our house waving back.

The car began moving once again till we reached the airport.

"Flight 214 to Los Angeles boarding now"

The intercom spoke loud and clear as we all began to board the flight.
As soon as we sat down, Jacob dozed off beside me and Matt beside Brook. We both took this opportunity and went onto snapchat.
"3, 2, 1" we both whispered slapping them awake and their reaction was hilarious.

Jacob went into a Kung fu position whilst Matt jumped up onto his seat.
"0 to ninja real quick" I say as me and Brook continued laughing.
Jacob pouts at me and I pout back, pinching his cheeks. I hadn't even noticed that Brook and Matt were recording me till I saw that I was tagged in a twitter video.

I squint my eyes at them as soon as I see it.
I look back at my phone to see that the comments are flooded with the #jalex.
I love Jacob and all, I mean sure he's cute, sure he has an amazingly perfect personality, sure he makes me smile, sure he's funny, sweet, loving, caring and just all round perfect but we are just strictly best friends.

Wow. That did not help my case did it?

As the plane begins to dip, I look out of the window, the stunning overview of L.A begins to come into view.
The wheels of the plane hit the L.A.X runaway causing them to grin excitedly, I on the other hand, was still dreading to have to face Daniel once again.

I looked down at my necklace, fiddling with the moon, the stars and the sapphire blue heart, I flash backed to that magical day in the park where we danced together without a care in the world.
Instantly, I let go, the painful memories now flooding back.

"Hey, you'll be okay" Jacob reassures comfortingly, lacing his hands with mine as we collect our hand baggage and exit the plane, into the airport.
The team collect the rest of our belongings and as we exit the airport, there are an outstanding amount of fans flooding the entrance.

The security were there and they even had to put up barricades.
I notice paparazzi and Jacob and I looked down at our hands which were still laced together and immediately regretted it.
"Embrace it" Jacob whispered cheekily causing me to grin and lightly laugh at our childish behaviour.

We held our hands up then put them back down causing cheering to erupt from the fans.
Then, Jacob gave me a peck on the cheek causing them to erupt even louder, to the point where it was deafening.
We continued laughing as we entered the large, sleek, jet black SUV.

"We are so childish" I say, laughing at our antics to explode the fandom with our ship even further.
"Next stop, Clevver news" he says, grinning widely causing me to shake my head.
Kelly then enters the car panting,
"The fans are wild out there" she said out of breath in her sleek British accent.

I sigh, "I'm so proud of them for making you go out of breath" I say causing the rest of us to laugh and Kelly to give me a playful death glare.
"Next stop, the Why Don't We house" she informed us happily.
I slumped back into my seat, wanting to shrivel up and stay there forever just to avoid seeing Daniel again.

I lay my head on Jacob's shoulders to try and get a short nap in since it would be around an hour or two before we got there depending on the traffic.
Slowly, I felt myself dozing off...

"Promise me something, if I give it a shot, so do you" he said softly. I turn back towards him, the pool of diamonds in his eyes glistening against the stars.
I hesitate for a moment before giving in, "I promise" I whisper, wrapping my pinky around his causing him to grin.

"Can you promise me something?" I ask.
"Anything" he replied.
"No matter what happens, we will never forget each other and we'll always be like this" I say softly.
Without hesitation, he replied,

"I promise you, forever?"

"Forever"

I bolt awake, almost gasping for air at the all too familiar dream only to see that the car had parked outside a massive modernised house. Peering out the window, all of our jaws drop in awe at the stunning view of the house in the depths of L.A.

"We're here" Matt says and they all turn their attention to me.
"I'll be fine" I say, forcing a smile and acting like it was nothing to me. But it meant everything.
After four years, four long hard years that put me through so much pain because of him, we would see each other again.

Would he be happy? Or sad? Or angry? I don't know anymore.
The fact that he left without a word of warning should reflect upon the question if he ever really liked me at all. I highly doubt it.

My mouth felt dry, like my heart was stuck in my throat.
Jacob laced his hand with mine and gave me a warm reassuring smile, yet I was still terrified.
We approached the front door and knocked, our team behind us getting our luggage.

The door swung upon revealing...
