Alex's PoV

VidCon was a blast. I got to meet so many famous YouTubers and fans, I made some new friends, I took a lot of pictures with people, I gave out autographs (why not???) We were there for three days. After that, I took us to Universal. That was just as cool. Because I had been unmasked, I decided to vlog it and post it on my channel. First time on my channel my viewers get to see me. It was awesome. California was fucking awesome, we all loved it. We stayed for another week. But all too soon, it was time to go home. And I was nervous. I know that I'm going to be swarmed by fans no matter where I go. We're at the airport. I play with the zipper on my leather jacket, my head bowed, and I'm hiding behind Dad. I don't want to get swarmed here. "You okay Hammie?" John asks.

"I'm fine. Just don't wanna get swarmed." I mutter. He wraps his arms around me and kisses my cheek.

"I'm so proud of you Alexander. You were so brave to reveal yourself like that. I love you so much." He whispers, hugging me tightly. I lean into him, smiling.

"I love you too Jacky."

"Are you ready to go home?"

"Ready as I'll ever be." I grab my backpack off the ground and sling it over my shoulder as our flight is called to board. I grit my teeth. I'm done being scared. When we get home, I'm going to be who I want to be. I'm tired of being a 'bad boy' just so I can protect myself from my fans. I'm going to pull my life together a little. I'm going to stop acting like I don't care in school. I'm going to stop being what society has come to expect. I'm going to keep my gauges, my jacket, my motorcycle, my boots, all of that, but I'm going to clean myself up as a person. It's high time the world meets the real Alexander Washington-Hamilton.

Fin.
