Title from Somewhere in Neverland by All Time Low


(Alex's POV).

School.

Ew. I already hate it, and it's the first day. Getting up at 6 in the morning sucks. I trudge downstairs and see my mom making coffee.

"Coffee?" She turns around.

"I drink coffee?" I raise an eyebrow. I sure as hell don't remember liking coffee.

"Oh, right. Well, it's your choice either way," she shrugs and grabs her keys. "I have to go, have a good day," she plants a kiss on the top of my head before leaving.

Jack: YOOO FIRST DAY

Rian: Kill me

Zack: I'm tired

Jack: I had five bottles of Monster. I'm HYPED.

Rian: Kill me

I smile at my friends' texts.

Alex: Coffee, yes or no?

Jack: well you like coffee- as of Freshman year- so yes? But in one of those to-go cups. I wanna meet at the end of the street like we used to.

Zack: I'll be there

Rian: you all realize I'm in the neighbor across from y'all? I have to cross that busy-ass street. If I die, it's on you

Jack: you've been doing it for two years, get over it

Rian: ...

Rian: Kill me

I giggle and eat a quick breakfast. I rush upstairs to finish getting ready.

Jack: Alex. Get your face over here

Zack: Seriously, hurry up. Jack is going crazy. You're his only filter.

Alex: GIVE ME FIVE MINUTES FOR GOD'S SAKE

Jack: Damn. You really aren't a morning person ;)

Alex: ...

Rian: I think I speak for Alex when I say this...

Rian: Kill me

I grab my bag and rush out the door, locking it behind me. I walk over to the end of the street and see the three of them chatting.

"ALEX!" Jack rushes over and tackles me into a hug.

"Dude, you saw him yesterday," Rian points out. 

"I don't wanna go to school," Zack drags out 'school'. 

"Neither do I. And yet... here we are," Jack sighs and looks up at the dark sky. "6:30 in the morning is a dark time for high schoolers around the world."

"Tell me about it," Zack groans as we walk to the school together, talking and laughing. 

"Is that kid new?" Jack points to a small boy with black hair and pale skin.

"How would I know?" I give him a look.

"I think he's new," Zack says, ignoring my comment.

"That sucks. Should we talk to him?" Rian asks.

"It looks like Fuentes has that covered," Jack points to Vic.

Soon enough, the bell rings and we go to our first bells.
