Alex Gaskarth is about to go into his final year of high school, but before he does he decides he wants to end his last summer in high school with a bang. Which means doing things he wouldn't normally do. Partying, drinking, all the normal teenage things. But, along with all these things, he meets a boy who makes him question everything about himself. Can this new boy change Alex's life for the better, or will other problems get in the way of their perfect, Endless Summer?

Straight. His whole life Alex Gaskarth was sure he was straight, but when the famous singer and guitar players band, All Time Low, head out on the Future Hearts Tour, things become a lot more complicated when he begins developing feelings he doesn't understand for his best friend, Jack Barakat. Jack's been gay and out his entire life, and has been harboring his feelings for the singer since they were younger. But the real question of this toxic mess is will Alex man up and express his feelings for the guitar player?

What is the best way to keep a secret? "Tell it to everyone you know, but pretend you are kidding" - Lemony Snicket. It turned out that Snicket was painfully correct. By the time I reached P.E. after lunch on Monday, it was tipping over the edge of eighty degrees, and my red hoodie had been stuffed in the back of my locker since Brunch. I'd lost count of how many people had gaped at my arm with shocked expressions and open mouths, curious voices unsure of whether or not they wanted to know the answer asking, "Did you cut your arm?" By third period, I'd gotten so fucking sick of repeating the same excuse that my sarcastic asshole side had leaked out. So, I'd been responding to my classmates appalled questions with something along the lines of, "Yes, I cut myself." There was a kind of sick humor to it - technically, I was telling the truth. Not that anyone would ever know it. Cover cred to RazorbladeKissesx

all the gay, all the emo what's not to love?

Alex and Jack hasn't been in touch since the car accident that left Jack without half his memory. What happens when Alex decides to take a chance to get to know Jack again?

[DISCONTINUED] Jack's life sucked. So did Alex's. It got better when they saw each other after six years of distance, though. Trigger warning: Self-harm, abuse. Title credit: Damned If I Do Ya (Damned If I Don't) by All Time Low © AllTimePhan

Alex is really, really depressed and his friends try to help him through his depression. It doesn't work, but when Rian, Alex's best friend since practically forever, finally gets it through Jack's head that he should at least go and talk to Alex, will things change?

Jack works at the music store and Alex is new in town with his girlfriend, Lisa. Both being a 24 years old, nethier of the two have time to waste. When Alex becomes a regular customer and Lisa becomes distant only one thing can happen.

Alex has to face moving away from London to Baltimore, Maryland in the USA and has to come to terms with making new friends at his new school. What he doesn't know is what this holds for him and what a boy called Jack does to his life... -------------------------------------------------------------------- 80k reads, thank you so so much!
