Tay's POV
Later that night I found myself in my living room with my laptop. I decided to open it to YouTube and search All Time Low. The first result was a result for a music video called Weightless. Wait? Wasn't that Alex's favorite song he had written? I clicked on it. I laughed as it started out with a bunch of groupies surrounding Alex. He looked so different here with brown hair. He looked younger and cuter if that was even possible. I continued to watch more music videos.
Time Bomb, I Feel Like Dancin' (and yeah I could have lived a long long life without seeing Alex dressed like Katy Perry), Coffee Shop Soundtrack, Poppin' Champagne, Dear Maria, Count Me In and Damned If I Do Ya (Damned If I Don't). Over time I just fell more in love. Alex's voice was really really relaxing.
So I texted him. Hey loser. What are some non-singles by your band that are good? 😛 Alex's response was almost instant. Ummmmmm Walls, Too Much, Therapy, Remebering Sunday, Heroes, A Daydream Away and Lullabies. I smiled because now I had new songs to listen to. My brain told me It was stupid asking Alex because I was just going to be downloading all their albums from ITunes later. I typed in Too Much to iTunes.
Alex's voice sounded amazing. By the time I was on Heroes I got another text from Alex. Hey Jw, Do you want to do Juliet's part in Remembering Sunday? I smiled because yeah I wanted to and singing with Alex would be much better than singing with Jordan not that I don't love singing with Jordan. Yes loser I'll do it. Your songs aren't half bad either. :p I waited for Alex's response. Neither are yours. I would say rn my favorite is Both Sides Of The Story. I smiled we had the same favorite song.
Alex's POV
Honestly I hate New York. It's not home. Home to me is Baltimore or I guess now our tour bus. Since we had meetings and writing for our new album, Hopeless let us stay in a nice hotel. When we arrived Matt checked us in and gave us our room keys. "Rian and Alex in one room and Zack and Jack in the other." Flyzik said as he gave us our room keys. Zack and Jack were on the floor above me and Rian so we got out of the elevator first. As soon as we entered the room I flopped down on the bed. "Ahhhhhh sweet sweet bed how I have missed having a bed."
Rian rolled his eyes. "Alex, we need to talk?" I quickly sat up. "There's nothing to talk about." I said. Rian knew I was just going to pull my old card from we were younger. It never happened. "Alex, yes there is. Me, you and Jack all know that you had a panic attack today. So we're going to talk about it." I sighed. "I like her Rian. More than I ever liked Jack or Lisa. It makes me nervous. What if I mess up all of my chances or she doesn't like me back?" I could feel my anxiety rising. Rian put my head in his lap and started playing with my hair. "Alex you should have seen her face when I covered for you. It was pure disappointment and if she doesn't like you at all, she's not who we saw today I think she truly likes you." I looked up at Rian in disbelief. "Really?" I said. "Yes."
All of a sudden my phone buzzed. Rian grabbed it off the table. "It's Taylor." he said. I grabbed my phone while Rian laughed at me. Her text read Hey loser. What are some non-singles by your band that are good?😛 I already knew what I was going to say Rian read over my shoulder as I typed in Walls, Too Much, Remembering Sunday, Heroes, A Daydream Away and Lullabies. "Alex are you sure?" Rian said gesturing to Lullabies. I smiled a weak smile. Everyone knew it was a touchy subject with me. I hit the send button with no regrets.
Afterwards I grabbed my laptop from its bag by the foot of my bag. I opened it up to YouTube and typed in We Are The In Crowd. The first result was for a music video for a song called Both Sides Of The Story. By the end I knew it was clearly amazing and Tay's voice was absolutely perfect. I clicked on the next song called Never Be What You Want. In the video it was just Tay and Jordan. Tay was playing piano and Jordan was playing guitar. You could tell from the video they really enjoyed what they were doing.
By 10:00 pm I had listened and downloaded their EP. All of the songs were amazing. I then texted Tay again. Hey Jw, Do you want to do Juliet's part in Remembering Sunday? All I hoped was that she said yes. I totally wouldn't mind collabing with the whole band. They were all truly talented. My phone then buzzed with Tay's response. Yes loser. I'll do it. Your songs aren't half bad either. :p I tried to think of a witty response but gave up and just typed out. Neither are yours. I would say rn my favorite is Both Sides Of The Story. They really weren't. I would still like the songs if it was just Jordan singing. He has a good voice.
Tay texted back after a few moments of me waiting. tbh that's my favorite. 😊 do you wanna hang out tomorrow? My heart jumped into my throat. Just me and Tay hanging out?! Yes, I totally wanted that but then my medical issue. Oh fuck it. I'm going to have fun. So I responded with yes. I could come get you whenever. Tay's response was instant. Idiot I live her so I have my own car. Meet me at 301 6th street at 11:00 am tomorrow. ✌️ I'm going to bed. Goodnight Alexander William. I felt so happy and I don't know why. I usually hate when people call me Alexander but it was different. I actually really liked when Tay did it. I'm so fucked ugh. I texted Tay back. Goodnight Taylor.
AN: Hiiii ok just to clear things up I don't know if Tay or Alex really have those songs as their favorites I picked ones I like and Tay's has to do with the story. I have so many ideas for this story so I'm really excited. Vote and Comment please? 💕 Thanks for reading.
