I look around the place, wow this hasn't changed but I have, tattoos, piercings, and a new attitude,

I see the house I ran away from four years ago today, should I knock? Or just leave it, I walk up to the porch and knock on the door "I'll get it" I hear my older sister May yell

"hello? JACK?!?!"she screams and hugs me "you've changed so much I've missed my baby brother" she said crying onto my shoulder I'm hugging her back and see my mum standing in the door way

"Jack, my baby!" She says hugging me, I'm less excited to see her, she practically disowned me then I see Jason "hello Jack" he said shaking my hand

"Jack come in and sit down I want to talk to my baby brother!" May is so excited "where have you been?, Who have you been staying with?, Do you have a job?, Do you have a special someone?, Why did you run away?"

May flooded me with questions "ah Chicago, Dad, no, no and because I just needed too" it was a lie it's because I couldn't look at my family the same way "dad?! You were staying with Dad?!" May said

"how is he?, What's his job?, Is he single?" "he's good, he owns a business called BB industries, and no he has a wife, called-" I got cut off by my mum yelling "who wants pizza?"

I hear a knock at the door it was Tom "hey I just wanted to give you back you're white board, wait Jack?" He seemed surprised "Jack you've changed" he said shaking my hand

"meh a few tattoos, piercings and different hair, half blonde half black" I said with a little laugh at the end "Alex will be so happy you're back" my smile faded a bit 'oh right Alex, the guy that ruined my life along with my family' at this point I wondering if coming back was a good decision,

"ah yeah" I said turning around and sitting down on the couch "sweetie, you're room is the same as you left it" mum left my room the same? Woah

I walk up the stairs and enter my room it was the same unmade bed sheets, clothes all over the floor, my unfinished homework on my desk that's now four years late,

I missed this I jump on my bed still bouncy and comfortable, I look at my phone it's 11 in the morning, I take a nap and wake up to my sister poking me

"Jack, there's some people down stairs that want to see you" she said with a smile on her face I got cleaned up and walk down stairs just to see the Gaskarths

"Jack?!" Bella and Mark said and Alex just staring "hello?" I said in a questioning tone "Jack you've changed so much!" Bella said with a smile on her face and Mark just looking,

Alex was still staring in shock "can I help you?" I said to Alex "uh oh ah n-no sorry" he was nervous you could tell after that awkward in counter

my mum, may and Jason went out for lunch with the Gaskarths and Alex stayed here "I'm sorry" I heard him say "what?" "I'm sorry" he repeated "why?" "I did this, only if I didn't please my father you wouldn't have left, wouldn't of hated me, wouldn't of turned out like this" he said in a shaky tone

"it's not you're fault" I said patting his back "its mums she disowned me when she found out and I couldn't look at her the same way" I was staring at the ground "I'm sorry" Alex said once again I giggled "stop saying sorry, you dip" that made him laugh

"sor- Nope" he caught himself there "nice save" I said smiling at him "I missed this, this is the main thing I missed when I was in Chicago" I said holding Alex's hand

I quickly let go to the parents walking in and I ran up to the kitchen I wanted them to think I hated Alex "hi boys" they said "hello" Alex said "hey" I grabbed a drink and walked half way up the stairs and "Jack spend some time with us it's been four years!"

I was dreading this I sat on the couch as far away from everyone as I could and that happened to be next to Alex "are you boys friends?" Mark said they all looked at me and I looked away "ahh" is all he said they started talking nonsense and I just sat there listening and daydreaming at some points

I look at my phone it's 3 o'clock "oh we better get going, it was fantastic seeing you again Jack!" "You too" I said in a sarcastic tone thank god no one heard the families exchanging hugs while I just sit there,

shortly I walk up to my room and go to bed 11 hour car rides are so tiring, I wake up I had only been asleep for a few hours it's only 8 pm to sound of my phone buzzing "the fuck?" I say because I have 25 new messages and their all from Alex

Jack please answer - Lexy❤️

Jacky please - Lexy❤️

Jack! - Lexy❤️

And they just go on with Alex saying my name and please answer I soon call him

"Lexy what's up?" I say he's crying "p-please come o-over I'm s-scared" his voice was shaky and you could tell he was going to have a panic attack

"hey hey Lex calm down its all ok I'll be over soon" I say and grab a pair of jeans, a plain white shirt and a black hoodie I walk down stairs and see May sitting on the couch

"where are you going?" "Out" is all I said and walked out the door and started sprinting to Alex's, his parents weren't home, neither was Tom I knock on the door and Alex opens it with a black eye, bruises like he was just in a fight

"what the fuck lex! Who did this!" "D-dad" I hug him so he feels safe and he just breaks down in my arms he's balling this is the worse I've ever seen him cry, more then when Eylar died

"Lexy I'm not gonna let him touch you" I said cupping his face "w-why" "why? Fucking why? Because you're my Lexy, you always have and always will, no one can hurt you or I'll destroy them" I said Alex stopped crying it was good because I'm now taller than him and he snuggles onto my neck,

I grab his hand and walk him up to his room, I lock the door and he lets out a sigh of relief "I meant it when I said noting is gonna hurt you" i hug him once again this time calming him down "shh, it's ok" he was still crying I place him in bed and get in next to him

"how come, when dad asked if we were friends you just looked away?" He said while I try and get into his damn forsaken bed "I didn't want them to suspect anything, because you know the last time they found out"

I get under the covers and snuggle with Alex this is the life, I've missed this of over four years
