Ella was at an All Time Low concert when anxiety took over. The crowds were too much for her and soon she was deduced to a shaking mess, panic spiking through her spine.
The only person there to save her was a man dressed in flag pants, who goes by the name of Alex Gaskarth.
Ella's life is riddled with unfortunate events. Luck is never on her side. Even though all things terrible happened to her, no body paid attention. Ella was invisible. Locked up in her brain which is not a good place to be. Her mind is a dark place, constantly doubting, constantly self-hating, constantly shrouded in the shadows of her worries and insecurities.
She is only alive because of her friend Alice. And only awake because no person like Ella sleeps, especially if they knew what lies ahead.
When Alex invites her on tour with him will her worries be forgotten? Or will they act like chains, tying her down and dragging her back down to her past...
(((I'm awful at descriptions, I'm sorry. If you're not keen on dramatic fics do not worry! This fic is full of fluff, memes and dick jokes. All of my favourite things, woo!)))

I'm Fine || l.s. ✓
I wrote this when I was like 15 so it's awful and horribly inaccurate regarding lots of stuff and the characters are really, really annoying. If it didn't have so many reads and votes and that I would delete it. PLEASE, if you want something with better writing and still full of angst, look at my other fics instead (Tempest is my fav) // Harry is upset, he just wants someone to care about him but he keeps pushing everyone away. Despite being packed tightly in a tour bus with the rest of the band, he still manages to avoid them. The boys begin to worry, Louis especially. // PSSST, i think my other stories are better!

DEFENCE // LARRY STYLINSON // LOUIS TOMLINSON
"No, no. No talking little bug, this is the part where you listen" he cuts me off before I can finish. I'm disappointed in myself for complying to his orders. I told myself when I left him that I wouldn't let him control me like this anymore. But here I am, pinned to the bathroom wall, with his hand securely fastened around my now throbbing erection, feeling my body surrender to Harry's commands. Louis and Harry have a toxic relationship, one that no matter how many times Louis tries to leave, he finds himself back and falling surrender to Harry. It isn't that he doesn't love the dominance that Harry holds when they are together, its the fact that he only feels like he knows half of his life. Harry, always a complex, dark character, holds so many secrets that he doesn't even know how to explain or understand himself. But what he does know, is that his love for Louis is something he can never lose, he knows that the day Louis decides he doesn't want him anymore, there will be no reasons left to live. Just how far will Harry go to protect his secret life, in order to keep his relationship safe, knowing that every secret is slowly tearing them apart.Complete
Wendy Run Away With Me
"What are you gonna do when you see All Time Low?" she said. Everyone giggled. "What's so funny?" I asked all of them. " You would probably die, like literally forget how to breathe and die," Travis said. "No man," Adam added, "she'd start to cry like other fangirls." "Oh shut up all of you!" I yelled rolling my eyes walking a little ahead. I turned to walk back to look at them. "Ya, they are one of my favorite bands. Ya, they are super awesome. Ya Alex Gaskarth is sexy as a mother fucker. And has a voice of God," Christopher pointed left saying to turn into the gate, "But that doesn't mean they aren't normal people, who I can be a normal person around, not some crazy fangirl." They rolled their eyes.I was proud and sharply turned around to walk normally again but crashed right into someone and nearly fell till they grabbed my shoulders. My drink was all over their gray shirt. I was too embarrassed to even look at this person. "Oh my gosh. I am so so sorry. I feel horrible. I swear I'll get you a new shirt. I didn't see you I wasn't even looking where I was going. I am-" I was cut off by the stranger. "Hey, it's alright honestly. I hated this shirt anyways. In fact, it's not even mine it's my bandmates." he said a slightly familiar voice. I looked up. Looking down at me with big beautiful brown eyes in none other than the Alexander William Gaskarth.

Things We Don't Normally Do
// A W2S Fanfic // If it is true that "insanity is doing the same thing over and over again but expecting different results", then Alex had been living in insanity her whole life. Alex feels like she as been going through the motions for way too long. Like she had been stuck living as a supporting character in someone else's story-- often playing roles like the less attractive friend, the older hardly-present sister, the annoying younger sister, the girl you go out with before you meet the love of your life. Feeling like an extra in your own life is not fun, but she realized that there is only one constant in her predicament and it was her. If anything was going to change for her, she would have to change. So she made a resolution: to do the things she won't normally do. It was when she started on this quest to push herself to do things she normally wouldn't that she meets Harry. An awkward chance encounter that quickly grew into an undeniable attraction. And Harry, with his outrageous stunts and youtube popularity, that something Alex would've never thought she'd go for.
