It's New Years when Alex turns up drunk and high on your doorstep, and you find looking after him is a chore. But he's a shameless flirt, and trying to ignore the words spilling from his mouth becomes increasingly difficult. Plus, the prospect of going from just friends to something more isn't as easy as it sounds, as there's a complication waiting in the wings... ~*~*~*~*~*~ An Alex Turner Short Story ~*~*~*~*~*~

"Do me a favour and tell me to go away" - 2011 - Lana Harper had always been an ardent fan of indie rock, but she had never taken a liking to Arctic Monkeys. It wasn't the music; it was the persona of their frontman, Alex Turner, that irked her. She found his arrogance insufferable. So, when she got an assignment from her music magazine to cover the band's upcoming tour, she was less than thrilled.

────୨ৎ──── 𝐀𝐋𝐄𝐗 𝐓𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐄𝐑 𝐗 𝐎𝐂 𝐅𝐀𝐍𝐅𝐈𝐂𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 ────୨ৎ──── 𝐁𝐀𝐂𝐊 𝐈𝐍 𝐒𝐂𝐇𝐎𝐎𝐋, they were inseparable-best friends with dreams bigger than their small town. Alex always talked about starting a band, and she believed he'd make it. But after graduation, life pulled them in different directions. Years later, he's on stage with Arctic Monkeys, while she's living a different life. When their paths cross again, old memories resurface, and so do the feelings they never acknowledged. Can they reconnect, or is the distance between their worlds too great to bridge? ────୨ৎ──── beautiful cover creds :: @cityliqhts- ────୨ৎ──── © @ac1dict0uch ────୨ৎ────

☆ you and your prick of a professor ☆ (tbhc era because I like his hair) ☄︎. *. ⋆ ⋆·˚ ༘ * 🔭

Who would have thought, that I'd be here telling the story of this love. Serendipitous. Unespected. A love like a ache in the jaw that made my ordinary life somersault. *Little challenge* find all the songs references 😉 *NOTE: I named my Y/n only way far in the story. I went back and updated with her name in the older chapters. If you see a forgotten "Y/n" that's why! **NEW** Playlist now available! DM me for the Spotify link https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4sr2XpYdtj8C5WoIkdyN9W?si=Gvj14hGxT42zP3-r_l2BNw&utm_source=copy-link ----------------------- The story is set around the Last Shadow Puppets Tour in 2016 and moves towards the Tranquility Base Hotel and Casino era. It mostly follows the real time line, but not completely (ie. concert dates/locations don't always reflect the real ones). Some of the characters are based on real people. Dude, it would be awesome to know them personally but I don't, so their role in this narrative is fictional. While the events are fictious, some elements here and there in the story are inspired by things the characters (mostly Alex and Miles) said/did in interviews or shows.

Started: 12 April 2021 It is a story about young Arctic Monkeys and the new girl Aurelia. But not everyone is liking her presence. Or is that what he has made himself believe to not get hurt again. TW: There will be talking about rape, suicide, drugs and physical abuse so if you are triggered about any of these topics this is not the book for you.

⟨ 𝙎𝙃𝙀'𝙎 𝘼 𝘾𝙀𝙍𝙏𝙄𝙁𝙄𝙀𝘿 𝙈𝙄𝙉𝘿𝘽𝙇𝙊𝙒𝙀𝙍 ⟩ THIS STORY CONTAINS: mature content, it's signaled with (•) in the title.

"If it's insanity, brand me infatuated." Leah Greene doesn't think much about the trip to California with her best friend until a hotel room mixup with the Arctic Monkeys and hollywood drama chasing her tail for it. Alex doesn't think much about the next few gigs in California after his recent breakup with Arielle. But after a rather awkward meeting between him and a fan, things are going to be changed between him and the band forever. [THIS IS NOT A SEQUEL. THIS IS A BETTER VERSION OF THE ORIGINAL.] IMPORTANT NOTE I left Wattpad years ago because suddenly I had a lot more pressure from school, and looked back on this story. I cringed so fucking much, but it brought back so many memories so I wanted to completely fix it. It won't get as many reads as the original but I wanted to put this out here anyways. Better version complete with: - NEW scenes - Foreshadowing - Realistic pacing - Grammar! - Better dialogue - Imagery - A standard (past) tense - Cut filler scenes - American spelling since Leah is American (even though I'm not) - Edited storyline - No confusing POV's - Fixed plot holes - Prior research - Actual common sense Thanks for all the support!
