JACK'S. POV:

I stare at Echo as I set him on the table in the center. I grab my tool box and open it.

"Can you see if Echo survived?" Alex asks me. I grab my screwdriver and try to open it. I grab a wipe and started cleaning him off. I see all the damages and I found Echo. I examine it and I hear the front door open. Gary and Gigi.

"Gary! Gigi we need help!" I yelled. They come in and look at me.

"Who's dead?" Gary asks, with a scare expression on his face. 

"Echo. He crashed in the field," I tell him. He walks over and looks at it.

"He was shot down in space cause the metal is dry," Gigi says simply. "Screwdriver," I hand it to him.

"That's all we can do. It's up to you guys for the rest," Gary tells us. We nod and they walk out. I grab sleeping bags and toss them on the floor. I grab some pillows too.

"You guys can stay here for the night," I tell them. They grab the sleeping bags and layer them out. I walk back to Echo and dug through my drawers for parts. I look at each of the parts that were damage on echo. I grab a screw and put it on the bottom. I rummage more through my drawers and look at each part. I felt an arm on my shoulder.

"I'll sleep later. You get some rest," I tell Alex.

"Jack, you need sleep," he tells me.

"Ill sleep when I finish this," I say simply. I put a part on Echo.

"You can work on it tomorrow. It's summer. You have plenty of time," he says.

"I don't need time. I need answers," I say stubbornly. He just goes back to his sleeping bag. I put a part on Echo and felt Alex's eyes on me. I don't really want to snap at him. We sort of had a fallout when school finished. I check my phone and the time. I crawl over to my bed and closed my eyes.

ALEX'S POV:

I wake up and see Jackson sleeping. I smile and walk over to Echo.

"Hey, um, so we are trying to fix you Echo. I promise everything will be fine," I tell him.

"Alex, I think by we you mean me," Jack says. I jump and look at her.

"God, you scared me," I tell her.

"Sorry," she says. She goes back to working on Echo. I look at her and I smile.

"How come we aren't together like Tuck and Emma?" I ask her. She stops and goes back to work.

"I don't know, I thought it would be weird if we dated," she replies.

"I thought we liked each other a lot," I told her.

"Alex, I really do like you, but Echo is back and we have to help him," she says.

"You said that last year," I remind her.

"Alex," she says.

"Sorry, I'll let you go back to work," I tell her and grab a water bottle from her mini fridge. She walks over to me.

"No need to apologize. But really. Wouldn't be weird?" She asks me.

"I don't know. I really liked you and you remember what I did last year," I tell her.
