You Broke Me, You Saved Me (Jalex) by futureyoungrenegade

-COMPLETED- - trigger warnings in first chapter "Let's get to my house, we need to get you warm," he says. I look at him, and he's soaking wet. He's only wearing a short sleeve shirt with skinny jeans, since he gave me the sweatshirt he was wearing. I felt bad for him, but at the same time, he looked so perfect. The way the rain was dripping off his hair and chin, the way his wet shirt clung to his body, the way he was looking at me- all of it. Every part of me is aching to kiss him, just once, but I know I can't. He's perfect, but he's as straight as can be. === Ex best friends. That's what they were. Everything changed once Alex came out as gay to Jack, pushing them from best friends to strangers with memories. But, when Alex goes to extreme measures to end his pain, will Jack come back into his life? And even if he does... will they be able to be around each other without their world crumbling around them? -=+=- I've sprinkled quite a few All Time Low song references not only in the titles, but in the text hehehe Started: Nov. 13, 2019 Finished: Dec. 1, 2019

Homewreckers || Merrikat by criticallymerrick

Completed June 12, 2016 DISCLAIMER: This is a fanfiction. The only thing real in this fic are the characters. The scenarios in this book most likely won't ever happen in real life. Also, the first half of this book is...really cringeworthy so I'm warning you in advance. - Senior year has just started. Zack got this. He was going to ask out his best friend, Jack Barakat. This should go as planned...not necessarily. The new kid, Alex Gaskarth, comes in and takes Jack away from him. Then before you know it, they're going out. That's a good thing! Zack's best friend, since forever, has finally found someone, right? Not in Zack's head. He knew Alex wasn't the one for him. And he would do anything to make sure that Jack is in his arms at the end of the day. - -There's not enough to merrikat on here so here's this lmao -also the story is in Zack's POV unless I say otherwise

It was like a time bomb ~ A Jack Barakat Fanfiction by JayIsRlyGay

Living in a world, where you can tell from your birth when you're going to meet your soul mate, was meant to be a fun and challenging story. However, there are still people who manage to somehow dismiss their fate, and extend their waiting time. Exactly this, happened to Jay, who would be more than happy to finally meet her mate. Her best friend at the time, Alice, is lucky enough to keep her fate, and she meets her mate in the right time, and is happier than ever with Zack Merrick, the bassist of All Time Low. Jay finally manages to meet her destiny, Jack Barakat, and she's happier than she's ever been ever since they met. Fate however, had other plans for their relationship. *I suck at introductions and summaries, but please give it a try?*

Nothing Personal {Jalex- Book 3} by jstadrtyhdlm

{2009-10} Jack Barakat caught his band mate/secret boyfriend, Alex Gaskarth, cheating a few weeks back. Alex had promised to break things off with Lisa so they could be together in secret and there wouldn't be any hurt feelings. Things, apparently, changed. How has Jack been handling life while ignoring Alex? What will happen when they have to reunite to make their next album and go on tour? Will Alex convince Jack he loves him? Or will Jack shun him forever? { Book 3 in my series. Like I said before I'm going to base it mostly off what was going on in their lives during each album. I don't know exactly what went on so if I get something wrong I'm sorry guys }

Ghost Of You (Jalex) by futureyoungrenegade

-COMPLETED- Jack Barakat ended his own life eight years ago at the young age of nineteen. Or... that was the common belief, anyway. Alex Gaskarth was left to deal with the heartbreak that was destined to haunt him every time winter came around, every time he heard a guitar, and, truthfully, with every breath that entered his lungs. Jack was painted on everything in Alex's mind. His hands felt cold without Jack's fingers intertwined with his; his lips felt useless without Jack's pressed against them; his heart felt empty without Jack's love there to fill it. Until, given some time and some good friends, everything changes. ==+== POV switches between multiple people. Inspired by "Ghost Of You" by 5 Seconds Of Summer. The only trigger warning is the mention that Jack has committed suicide in the past. Otherwise, this will be a safe fanfiction with the exception of cussing. Started: December 9, 2019. Finished: December 16, 2019.

Jack and Alice have never met before, only when they were first born. Alice finds out how good of a brother Jack is, and how amazing his band All Time Low is. She also starts having some major feelings for his best friend, Alex Gaskarth, the singer of the band. *I don't own All Time Low, sadly... Ps, I suck at summaries, sorry. Just read it, it's a good story.

Be My Escape by sowrongitshayley

Alex Gaskarth and Kaelyn Miller have been best friends and next door neighbors since Alex's family moved to Maryland from the UK. Over the years, they both developed feelings for each other, but managed to hide those feelings, convinced that the other person would never feel the same way. When they first met, Kaelyn protected Alex from the bullies who teased him about his accent. Ten years later, it was his turn to protect her: from her abusive boyfriend and from herself. Now it's the summer of 2006. Alex, Jack, Rian and Zack have all graduated from high school and are ready to set off on their very first Warped Tour. Kaelyn tags along, as do her best girl friends, Lisa and Kara. Alex is still in love with Kaelyn, but her eyes are on someone new: Zack. Will Alex be able to tell Kaelyn how he really feels, or will he only drive her away with his jealousy and protectiveness? Told in alternating present day and flashback chapters. Of course, trigger warning for partner abuse. -- SEQUEL: Smoke & Mirrors OUT NOW

Would've Married You in Vegas (Jalex) by WalkingonFirex

"The year is 2007. All Time Low is playing Warped Tour, and it's hot as fuck. They've been extremely busy touring, writing and recording their new album, and trying not to die of alcohol poisoning while also hanging with the big dogs in their scene, like Sum 41 and Yellowcard and Alkaline Trio. Jack's so stoked that Alex is pretty sure that he hasn't blinked in weeks. Rian is annoyed because Jack won't shut the fuck up about playing alongside Yellowcard. It's making them look uncool, okay? Zack is gone skateboarding with some of the guys from Boys Like Girls so often that they rarely know where he is, but he never shows up to the Hurley.com stage late, so they haven't kicked his ass yet. Alex is just taking it all in. And also flirting with Meg Frampton from Meg & Dia, but he doesn't see that going anywhere. He doesn't mind. He's not here for girls. He's here for the music, as corny as that might sound." A wild weekend in Vegas changes Alex Gaskarth's life forever -- and his band's, too. Written for the Let It Roll (Back To '07) Contest

You Keep Me Safe (Jalex) by futureyoungrenegade

-COMPLETED- I wasn't wanted or needed by anyone, and I knew that far too well by now. There was nothing left for me in the cruel wrath of life until I found everything in the deep brown eyes that belonged to a tall, sensitive boy by the name of Jack Barakat. The night that I thought would be another boring, sad chapter of my story ended up being the beginning of a whole new one. He kept me safe when not even my own house could. ==+== Told in Alex's POV. Trigger warnings: anxiety, abuse (verbal/physical), cussing. Disclaimer: This is partnered with "You Keep Me Sane" (which is not completed), but you do not need to read the other one before this one, or the other way around. It's the exact same story in another perspective. Started: Dec. 18, 2019 Finished: May 26, 2021
