We Go Together Or We Don't Go Down At All (Band Fanfic)

Chapter 29 - Alex/Sydney

Sydney's POV

"Hey babe, how good do you think I can pull this off?" I turned around and looked at Alex. He had on a Hello Kitty shirt with cheetah suspenders on top. I laughed and smacked his shoulder.

"Alexander William! Take those off before we get in trouble!" I joked. We were currently shopping in the mall because it was a gloomy day out. We stopped in Hot Topic and Alex was fooling around, as always.

It was nice to spend some time with him after his long tour! We could finally go out to the mall without some douche hitting on me!

He fake pouted and slowly took the suspenders off. "You party pooper," he mumbled. I just laughed it off and shook my head.

"Whatever dork. By the way, the cheetah suspenders make you look sexy. They totally bring out the hot pink of that shirt," I winked and then disappeared behind a clothes rack. I heard him laugh loudly and then heard his footsteps behind me.

"You know I'm just naturally sexy," he whispered in my ear, wrapping his arms around my waist from behind me. I leaned into him and smiled, looking up into his eyes.

"I know." He leaned in and kissed me sweetly. Kisses like this is what I loved the most about him. They weren't sloppy and needy. They were passionate and loving.

"Alright, I really got to pee. Don't go anywhere, beautiful."

"Wouldn't dream of it!" I yelled after him. I smiled once he disappeared and went back to looking at band shirts. I found a particular Green Day shirt I liked, but it was too high. I scrunched my face and stood on my tippy-toes, my hand reaching for it. I almost had it when a different hand came in the way and brought it down for me.

"Thanks, back so soon- oh." I thought it was Alex but it turned out to be someone else. He had short dark brown hair and blue eyes. Not the same guy as last time.

He wore a slight smirk and handed the shirt to me. He was wearing a Bring Me the Horizon t-shirt and black ripped skinny jeans, also wearing a pair of white and black vans. I could tell he was the cocky kind by that smirk but I smiled politely and thanked him anyways. I tried to walk away but he grabbed my arm.

"Wait! The name's Ethan, and what is yours, sexy?" My face twisted in disgust and shook his arm off.

"Uhm, its Sydney. Thanks but my boyfriend should be back and second now." I emphasized the word 'boyfriend' in hopes he would catch on and walk away, but with my luck, he didn't.

"So, he doesn't have to know," he smirked evilly and pushed me against the wall. I pushed on his chest and turned my head but he had a death grip on me.

"Look dude, I'm not interested! Now if you could let me go and let me go back to my boyfriend, I'd appreciate it!" He tried to kiss me but I pushed my knee into his crotch before he could do anything. "Let go of me!" I yelled.

You'd think someone would have heard me and helped me but no, no one was here. I kept kicking at him but he didn't let go.

"Hey! Let go of her!" I mentally cheered when I heard Alex's voice. I felt the guy being ripped off of me and I ran to Alex's side. He moved me so I was behind him protectively and I held onto his shirt like a little kid.

"Look, she obviously doesn't want anything to do with you. So keep your hands off of my girlfriend." Alex said calmly. Ethan laughed bitterly and I felt Alex tense.

"Oh please, why wouldn't she want me? She deserves way better than a lanky ass piece of shit." I held onto Alex's arm to prevent from any fists flying anywhere. My jaw clenched in anger, but I knew it was best to keep quiet.

"Listen dickhead, she doesn't want your ass so leave her alone! Go flirt with someone who isn't committed to a relationship!" Ethan shook his head and started his way out of the store.

"Whatever, she isn't that pretty anyways. Don't know what I was thinking." I averted my gaze to Alex's feet. Am I really that ugly? I guess he's right. I'm not that pretty or special. I don't even know why Alex has been dating me for so long. I felt Alex turn around and hug me tightly. I wrapped my arms around his neck and I heard him sigh and mumble, "Fucking asshole."

"Its fine, Alex. He was right anyways."

"No baby. He's not right. Not even close. You are so beautiful and I refuse to let you believe some dickhead in the mall. I love every little thing about you. Your gorgeousness is a great bonus to everything you have to offer. I love you, okay?" I smiled up at him and leaned in to give him a loving and sweet kiss.

"I love you too, dork." He laughed softly and grabbed my hand.

"Come one, let's buy our shit and then go home. We can order pizza, make a fort and watch every Disney movie your little heart desires." I looked at him excitedly and squealed.

"I love you, Alex. You're the best boyfriend a girl can ask for."

"You know I love you more, Syd. Now let's get home so I can treat my princess."

He's the best.

Alex's POV

"Hey, Syd! Can you come over here for a bit?" I called her out from the bedroom. I wasn't sure where we were going but I knew we had to go somewhere. She popped into the room with a huge smile on her face. "Hey babe, you look cute! Hey let's go out!" I rushed. Oh, man too rushed.

"Well, you're eager! Haha, where do you wanna go?" She asked. As soon as she asked me that, I knew exactly where.

"No questions! Just come with me." I grabbed her hand and we drove off.

"Why are we in an empty parking lot?" She asked. Oh god, I was so fucking nervous.

"Babe, this isn't just any parking lot." She looked at me confused. I was shaking. "This is the parking lot." She still wasn't getting it."2 years ago, we were at warped tour. I bumped into you and realized we went to school together. Therefor, this was where I met you. Well, first met you. And I just wanted to say," at this point she caught on. She started smiling and crying. Hopefully tears of joy. "These 2 years have been full of ups and downs and amazing nights where we just lie in bed and do nothing but listen to music. No one has ever made me feel like I'm home. With you, I'm home. And I want to stay home for my whole life. So, I wanted to know..." I got down on one knee.

"YES!! You dork! I love you!! YES!!" She tackled me and hugged me as we hit the ground! Oh man, I love this girl. She kissed me and cried tears of joy. The rest of the day we had a picnic there and I announced it on twitter!

This is our happily ever after.
