JAGK (Jack Barakat fanfic)

THREE

We finally make it to the hotel and I reluctantly step out of the car, Jack places his hand on my shoulder reassuringly.

"Don't worry, if you and I get along, you'll get along with the guys," Jack says I smile up at him.

"Okay, you're right," I reply.

"I just hope you stay mine," I hear Jack mumble, I blush a deep red.

"W-what?" I exclaim.

"What?" Jack asks pretending he didn't say anything, but I can see the red brushing his cheeks.

"N-nothing," I mumble deciding to let it go by shaking my head.

Soon enough we make it to the hotel room the band were sharing.

"HONEY I'M HOME!" Jack yells opening the door, I follow closely behind him as Alex runs up to him and gives him a tight hug.

"Jacky-poo!" Alex yells.

"Hey, you must be Mally," I turn and see Zack and Rian.

"Yeah, I am," I reply meekly, they smile and shake my hand.

"Jack says you made pancakes for us Zack," I say to him and he nods.

"I only showed him how to do it, he did all the cooking and everything else," He replies.

"He really likes you," Rian says quietly to me, Zack nods agreeing with him.

"Hey Mal," Alex greets finally walking up to me, he hugs me suddenly and I awkwardly return the hug patting him on the back.

"H-hey," I say struggling to breathe.

"Alex, you're strangling her," Rian says, Alex let's go of me and instantly Jack his arm around my shoulder making me blush.

"Aww, she's blushing," Alex teases which makes me blush more.

"Shut up," I pout and everyone laughs.

We all hang out for a couple of hours and Jack was right, I do get along with his band. At first, it was hard for me to control my inner fangirl but now I feel like I can be myself.

While the boys were talking about going on tour again, I excuse myself to go to the bathroom, after I do what I need to do, I check my reflection, my dark blue hair has gotten a little knotty with the all the movement, and my eyeliner is smudged on my lower eyelid too, so I run my fingers through my hair too neat it up and find a clean face wash under the sink.

I dampen the corner of it and wipe away the stray eyeliner so it looks back to normal, once I've done I hear a knock at the door.

"Mally, are you okay, you've been in there for a while?" Jack asks through the door.

"Yeah, yeah sorry," I reply opening the door, I look up and see Jack smiling down at me.

"Okay cool... look uh... can I ask you something?" Jack asks nervously while scratching the back of his neck.

"You just did," I reply smirking, Jack just chuckles and shakes his head.

"I'm serious," he responds.

"Okay, okay, I'm sorry, proceed," I say waving my hand gesturing for him to ask the question.

"Well... uh... do you... I mean, would you.... like to g-go on a..... date.... with me....?" He asks awkwardly and I smile widely.

"Of course I would Mr Barakat," I say, Jack's smile widens as he engulfs me in a hug, I hug him back tightly burying my head in his chest.

"I SHIP IT!" Alex yells I let go of Jack and blush again.

"And you were worried, Jack," Rian says, Jack chuckles and I subconsciously step closer to him, Jack then puts his arm around my shoulders again.

"So see you at seven tonight?" he whispers in my ear and I nod smiling.

Soon after, I drive back to my house to get ready for the date, when I get home I look at the time on my phone, it's only five. Maybe I can pick out the outfit and then watch a bit of a movie for an hour or so? I ask myself, after thinking for a couple more seconds I nod and walk to my room and look at my collection of clothes. Black, black, black, black and dark red... god why am I such a repressed emo?

I eventually pick out a pair of black skinny jeans and a maroon Gryffindor shirt, I lay them out on the bed and place my black vans on the bed as well before walking into the lounge room, five-thirty, not enough time to watch a movie, maybe a couple of episodes of Adventure Time.

An alarm goes off on my phone signalling that it's six o'clock and I need to start getting ready, I turn off the TV and turn on my stereo, Taman Shud by The Black Queen starts to play and I smile humming along while getting into the shower to wash myself and my hair. When I get out, I get dressed, I blow dry my hair, brushing it and styling it how I want. The putting on more eyeliner and a tiny bit of foundation.

I walk into my room and put my shoes on right before I hear knock at the door, I smile before running to my stereo and turn it off before hastily grabbing my keys, purse and phone. I then open the front door to Jack, who's smiling like a dork.

"Hello again," I greet.

"Good evening, ready to go?" Jack asks, I nod and follow him to the car and get strapped in.

"So, what's the plan?" I ask, he shrugs in reply and I roll my eyes.

"Nah I'm kidding, I have a plan, it's just a surprise," Jack says and I chuckle.

"Well then, let's hurry up 'cause I don't like being kept in the dark," He nods again and starts the car and Welcome to the Black Parade starts to play and I hiss quickly changing the song.

"No," is all I say as Misery Business by Paramore plays in its place and Jack and I start to sing along, after about seven songs we seem to reach our destination which is.

"An aquarium?!" I say excitedly twisting in my seat to face Jack who's once again smiling like a dork.

"Yep, now come on!" We both jump out of the car and quickly make it to the door and rushing inside, Jack pays the entry fee and I rush ahead of him and speed walk to the first fish tank I see which is full of simple Goldfish swimming around brainlessly.

"Feeesshh," I point in weird voice making Jack laugh.

~Jack's POV~

We walked around for few more minutes. Who knew that Mally had such a fascination with fish, it's adorable watching the wonder fill her beautiful brown eyes. The blue lights from the tanks make her already blue hair practically glow.

Suddenly something catches Mally's eye and she grabs my hand pulling me over to what looks like the small oven tank where you can touch the different species in the water.

"Look, look! You can touch the fish!" She exclaims like a child and I chuckle, Mally dips her hand in the water stroking a yellow blob, I smile an notice that my hand is still in hers.

"Look at the sea sponge, they're so weird!" She giggles, I place my free hand in the water and poke at a blue starfish.

"You're so cute," I say quietly, Mally gives me a toothy grin.

"Thanks," she looks back down at the water as a couple of small fish nibble at her figures making her laugh again, soon after Mally yawns and we leave the aquarium before getting back to her place and eat pizza and watch movies.
