Are You Having A Good Time, Sweetheart?
TW: Self harm, suicidal thoughts. Note: Smut, fluff, all the good stuff. A Jalex fic. Alex is in love with this black haired boy with the blonde streak in his hair. Alex doesn't even know this boy's name, and the boy doesn't know Alex. The boy has never even so much as looked at Alex. Until now. Setting- end of March 2017, but Alex and Jack are in high school. No band. Just Alex and Jack as themselves. This story has nothing to do with real-life Alex and Jack, or their band All Time Low. This is simply just a story. I did change the time this story is set in, because I realized that I can't go forward when I don't know what's happening in 2020, let alone 2021. So, it's now 2017. Either way, story doesn't change.Complete
