Somewhere in Neverland (a Jack Barakat fan fiction)

Chapter seven

Alice's P.O.V

Obviously I knew what I was singing for the audition. Somewhere in neverland. I know all the lyrics and am totally ready to blow jacks mind. Yeah right. He will probably think I suck and regret ever kissing me .. That's just the way I see it.

After jack tried to get the song I was going to sing out of me, I got up and walked over to the pillow fort, grabbed my sweater and out it on. I turned around to see jack standing in front of me.

'And where do you think your going?' He smiled down at me and before I knew it , I was in a huge mess of pillows. I laughed as jack lay beside me in the now destroyed remains of the fort.

'Why would you destroy my beautiful castle!' I pouted. Trying to sound serious but couldn't . I let out a small laugh. Jack looked over at me, a twisted grin plastered on his face. 'Because m'lady.. Me and you.. Will have a new castle! The land shall be called rumlandia and we will rule over empty rum bottle peasants.'

I laughed so much that my stomach began to ache. As I stopped laughing, jack looked down sadly. 'Why are you laughing? I'm serious' I smiled and moved over closer to jack. 'No.. I'm not laughing at the idea jack.. The idea is fabulous. It's just. Your cute when you do things like this.' I smiled at him and he smiled back. 'Well than my queen.. I must be pretty freaking adorable '

Later that day, I was outside on a walk. My headphones in, blasting hello Brooklyn. I sang along to the song quietly as I walked down the sidewalk. It was mid after noon and was pretty hot outside. I stopped and sat on the curb for a moment. As I did , I felt someone put there hand on my shoulder.

'Excuse me Miss.' . I took out my headphones and looked up. A tall guy , about 22 with short black hair stood slightly in front of me. 'Yes?' I asked curiously . Why would this guy be talking to me at random. I'm nothing special. Plus, aren't me and jack a thing. I don't know. Whatever. 'Is this your's?' He held out a key to me.

Sure enough. My bloody house key. How useless.

'Yes.. Thank you.. ' he smiled at me as I stood up and took the key. 'Sam' he said in a thick British accent . I didn't even notice it before. Maybe I shouldn't listen to music that loud. 'Thank you Sam. I'm Alice.'

I stood awkwardly in front of him . 'Nice to meet you Alice.' His eyes darted from my face to my phone. He must have seen my screen saver. Jack. Still there from when we swapped number.

'You like all time low?' I smiled as he mentioned the name. Jesus! I thought I was the only one in this entire town who knew who they were . 'Yeah. I love them actually. My favourite band' he smiled 'same here!' I laughed and shoved the key in my pocket , forgetting all about it. I sat down on the curb and motioned for him to join me.

For the rest of the afternoon I sat with Sam on the curb, talking about various bands and people, complaining about school and how we couldn't wait for summer, and of course, all time low. I didn't want to mention anything about me being on the bus with them like 24/7 with them, because who knows.. He could be one of those weird fan boys that writes fabrics about themselves and all time low being a thing.

We swapped numbers and promised to talk again. He was cool. I think I could see him as a friend in the future. I walked back to the bus to find jack eating Taco Bell with the guys. I pouted. 'You could have called!' They all laughed. 'Where have you been all after noon?' Rian asked as he put down his drink. 'Oh you know.. On a walk.. I met this dude and we swapped numbers.' I smiled and rian winked at me. 'Someone new eh?' He laughed and I couldn't help but look at jack. All I could see in his eyes was jealousy.
