J. Barakat

After running around the entire yard, trying not to die; I feel like absolute crap. My legs hurt because I hate running, and I'm always inside. I get to my music class. My favorite class, because Alex is in it. And because Mr. Perry is astounding. There are instruments throughout the classroom, and he lets you create music. 

"Alright class, I have an assignment for you. You get to work in partners before I get bombarded with questions. Anyway, I want everyone to create a love song. The possibilities are endless. Now, create!"

Alex and I start writing immediately, writing the first things that come to mind. Luckily, we're with each other, so the lyrics match nicely. We both write about the other. The only down-side is, I suck at writing lyrics. His lyrics come out beautifully, and smoothly. I pick out an acoustic guitar and start playing a soft tune. He hums along, the words in his head. 

Soon enough, the bell rings, and we pack everything up. "Hey, you up for tonight?" He asks shyly. I nod and press a kiss to his forehead.

Alex and I end up walking to his place after school, after getting permission from my parents, of course. He holds my hand, looking at the leaves turning orange and brown. Some turning a vibrant red. I love the fall. Especially since our first kiss was during the fall. We get to his house and run up to his room. 

He smiles and sits on the bed, pulling out a notebook. I walk up next to him and put my arms around him. I go in to kiss his cheek. He smiles and looks at me, shutting the notebook. He tackles me over and straddles my hips. "Maybe it's because I'm a teenager, but you look particularly hot today," he mumbles, pressing his lips my mines. My fingers feel it's way up his shirt. I smirk and start tickling his sides. He bursts out laughing and falls over next to me. 

"Jack-" he gasps, in between fits of laughter. Then, out of nowhere, he comes up really close to me. I freeze. "Thank god- I thought I would die," he pants, laying on his back. "Hey, we should really finish this assignment," he sighs, sitting up and grabbing the notebook off the ground. He flips through a few pages, pauses at one, then flips it again. 

"Wait- what was that?" I ask, suddenly curious. He shakes his head and keeps flipping through pages. I pout and grab the notebook out of his hands. 

"Jack!" He shouts, chasing me around. I flip back to the page and stop. He has lyrics written in small letters, filling the page. I skim through it. "Jack-" 

"What about this song?" I show him the song. "We don't have to, but it's beautiful," I stare at the words. 

"That- I wrote that a while ago, it's nothing-"

"Alex, baby, this obviously means something to you, can you tell me what it means?" I ask, handing him the notebook. 

"I guess I just don't like my writing. I think it's really bad," he shrugs and walks back to the room. I grab his arm and spin him around. 

"I don't know what this means to you, but- that writing was beautiful. You're beautiful. And I don't give a fuck what anyone else says, it's your choice if we use this, but I'm just saying; it's amazing." 

He kisses me softly, "thank you," he whispers.

"Kellin Quinn and Nick Martian," Mr. Perry calls. Kellin shoots us a smile and walks up. 

"We wrote this, dedicating it to our loved ones," he says, clearing his throat. "This is called All My Heart." 

They perform the song, making my heart melt. God, he really loves Vic. That was beautiful. I wonder if he shared it with Vic yet. 

We all clap for them, and they bow politely. 

"Alex Gaskarth and Jack Barakat," Mr. Perry announces, we get up and walk to the front of the room. 

"In case you've never heard, we're dating, so this song was written about our relationship," Alex says. "This song is titled, Somewhere In Neverland." 

A/N I'm pretty sure I went through every single ATL album to find a love song. And just gave up? Idk, it was difficult (I accidentally hit the "c" key instead of the "f" key so it was diccicult), I'll tell you that.

My cat also like... bit her paw, so now I'm worried. *sigh*
