Trigger warnings: Substance abuse (alcohol + drugs), violence, sex, death, torture references. All characters are completely fictional and do not reflect the real life of the person they're based on. Please forgive me & let me know if you notice any errors in the story and I'll get these updated asap, either with spelling/grammar or not being factually correct (I'm British so bound to make some mistakes).

COMPLETED • After one of the biggest changes in his life so far, Alex starts senior year. On the first day of school he unintentionally draws attention to himself which makes Jack wonder what's hiding behind it. Little does he know that Alex has had a crush on him since freshman year. But Alex can't hold it together anymore and takes his last chance to let Jack know the truth and things might not go as planned. WARNING! Might be triggering and not suitable for everyone, mentions of sex, drugs, violence and alcohol are possible! This might be cringy, it's old and my first published Jalex xD Also, English is not my first language so bear with me🌹 Opinions are awesome and very welcome, enjoy and share if you like it🌹

Jack and alex are best friends, they always have been. But jack has feelings for alex and has done for a long time...

Alex Gaskarth, a sophomore in high school, didn't think much of his life until a certain someone came around and fucked everything over.

An alternate universe Jalex based in high school where i attempt to make the story line original and cute, but it's all a matter of opinion really, i can't brainwash you into gushing over cuddles. No Jock vs Nerd cliches here, just two neighbors who eventually fall in love. Sound's pretty straight forward, right? But do you dare to believe me, or is there more than what meets the eye? (The actual Jalex begins at about 7, the chapters are kind of short and it's always hinted before then but if you're not that patient then i thought you might want to know ^__^) (Written in the constant P.O.V of Alex, but Jack is mentioned in basically every chapter so you won't have to keep up with the constant switch)

I glance over at my friends sitting at the front of the class with Jack. I don't understand why they want me to meet him, it's always been fine just the three of us. Me, Rian and Zack. They understand. Jack wouldn't. I don't know Jack but I know I don't want to. He would pry. He knows too much about people and wouldn't stop until he finds out about me. I don't like him. Rian and Zack know not to ask questions. That's why I like Rian and Zack. They're attractive. They don't pry. If I say shut up they shut up. Jack don't. I'm surprised he hasn't been hit yet. When Rian notices me looking he motions for me to come over and I just shake my head. I don't want to hang out with Jack Barakat just because my friends like him. I don't like him.

Alex had enough. Enough of everything. So he decided to run away from his broken past in Britain, and on his way to a different country, he accidentaly met his light in the dark. "And...what's even your name?" the boy asked. "Uh-I'm-I'm Alex. Alex Gaskarth." he quietly stuttered and shifted a bit, then carefully looked up at the boy with glossy eyes. "Well I'm Jack, Jack Barakat. And I'm sticking with you whether you like it or not."

Vic Fuentes is hating Kellin Quinn. And when Kellin finds Vic self harming, everything seems to go down hill. Or... is it going up hill? Accompanied by best friend Jaime, Vic has to go across obstacles that high school and self harm always put in your way. And just maybe... Vic will get a taste of romance as well. (**Takes place during high school, obviously**)
