Would You Trade That Heart Of Gold For A Minute In My Skin?

OHMYGODDDD. I HAVEN' UPDATED THIS IN, LIKE, FOREVERRRRR. I FEEL SO BAD. Enjoy it, if you can. xD

I've got a house in the back of my head
But I can't find a permanent resident
'Cause the market's down
And the area's not so good these days
I've got a watch but I don't have time
I've got a road and it leads to decadence
But a dead end sign waits down the line
I leave my footprints for the evidence

Poison: All Time Low

          *Jasey POV*

I wanted to stay behind when All Time Low hit the other side of the world, but I didn't think, no, I knew they wouldn't let me join Paramore on their No Doubt tour. I wanted to go to LA more than anything to see our little girl, bring her home. Stupid world fame. I chuckled as Jack snored loudly from the chairs opposite me. I kicked him and he jolted up, and then fell onto the lino floor. "OW! What the hell Jasey!?" He yelled. I laughed and offered my hand to him. I pulled him up and he sat back down.

"I'm so tired." He complained. I smiled and pushed my sunglasses back up my nose. "Hey, you've got some weeks off now. Catch up on sleep." I offered as I saw Alex come back with coffee. I smiled and took my cup from him. "Thanks babe." I whispered, blowing over it. "It's alright. Think of it as an apology for dragging you across the world for the past few weeks." I smiled and leant my head on his shoulder. "What did you think of Japan and 'down under'?" Zack asked, imitating a horrible Australian accent.

I chuckled and sipped my coffee. "I adored it. I love Japan, and Aus is just beautiful. I can't wait to get home though." I answered, looking up at Alex. He pecked my lips and gripped my hand. The rest of the guy's were off on a plane to Baltimore, while me and Alex were getting a plane to LA. We were officially going to start our search for Holly.

"I wonder what it's gonna be like..." Jack thought aloud. "What's what gonna be like?" Alex asked, taking a sip of his coffee. "Touring with little girl. I mean, will he actually grow up?" He asked, pointing to Alex. I smiled. "This boy will never grow up Jack. You know that." I stated, tapping his knee. Alex chuckled. "Just don't swear near her." He whispered, squeezing my knee. "Dude this coffee is shit." He gagged putting by Zack's sleeping feet.

We all giggled sleepily as I leant my head on Alex's shoulder. I shut my eyes and snuggled deeper into his collarbone. "I hate early morning flights." I sighed, re-opening my eyes. "You've got nothing to complain about missy."  Rian complained, kicking my shin lightly. "You have a layover." I sat up and smiled sweetly, until I kicked Rian hard in the shin. "OW!" He yelled, grabbing his leg. That scream caused Zack to jump up and kick the coffee over in the process.

"What the hell is going on!?" He yelled. I jumped up as the coffee landed on my feet. "For fucks sake Zack!" I screamed, slapping the side of his head. "What was that for?!" He shouted at me, holding the side of his head. "Hot coffee on white converse. You do the fucking math Merrick." I looked down at my shoes, sighing. That was until someone grabbed my waist and pulled down. I was sat on Zack's lap. "Zack let me go." I warned, looking at Alex. He winked as I fell back so I was lying across Zack. Then he started tickling me.

I couldn't breathe from laughter and I was kicking the air until Alex sat on my feet. "Oh my god! Zack! Please! Stop!" I pleaded through hysteric laughter. I was close to tears before he stopped and Alex helped me up. "I hate you." I whispered, catching my breath. "I love you too Jasey." Zack replied, ruffling my hair. I sighed and sat back on my seat, now fully awake. "You guys are such assholes." I breathed out, pulling the sleeve of my hoodie back over my shoulders.

They sniggered and went back to their zombie-like state until Matt came by. "Sorry to say guys, but the Maryland flight's boarding." The guys stood up and hugged us goodbye. "Bring her back for us." Jack whispered in my ear. I nodded and kissed his cheek. I quickly blinked away the tears of goodbye before Alex looked back at me. He saw me trying to get rid of them and kissed my forehead. "It'll be alright. I promise."

*Alex POV*

            After a two hour wait, we boarded our plane to LA and quickly were on our way. The movies were in real short supply and the food wasn't exactly great but I wasn't really hungry anyways. Jasey didn't even open her headphones; she just sat there, looking deep in thought. "Babe? Are you alright?" I asked, shaking her shoulder. She looked at me and nodded. "I know you're nervous but it'll be okay." I reassured her. "What if we can't have her back Alex?" She asked nervously. I put my arm around her. "They can't stop us sweetheart. We'll plead our case, and I'm sure they'll understand." She nodded. "As long as I get to keep you." She whispered, putting her hands on my face. I quickly pecked her lips before letting her fall asleep on me.

It was around 3 in the afternoon in LA when we landed; so I got our hire car and we drove straight to the address. It wasn't hard to find, and to be honest, it looked like an amazing home. It was a large house on the outside, and looked so out of place in the row of mansions. It reminded of the houses back in England. I pulled up outside and sighed. "You ready?" I asked Jasey, holding her hand. She nodded with a deep intake of breath. We got out of the car and walked up the path way to the front door.

Jasey stopped suddenly before we walked up the steps to the door. "I can't go in there Alex, I just can't do it." She choked out. I wrapped her up in a hug and kissed her forehead. "We can honey." I whispered, tucking her hair behind her ears. "Our little girl is there, and you're her mom. We can get through this." I reassured her, kissing the tip of her nose. She gulped and nodded. She gripped my hand was we got up the stairs and knocked on the door. Her hand was clammy and cold with sweat.

We waited for five minutes, with no answer. "No one's home." Jasey breathed, almost in relief. "We'll come back tomorrow then." I suggested, kissing her hand. "Momma! Who are those people on our steps?!" I stared at Jasey who was shaking before I turned to look at the little girl below me. She was perfect. Her brown hair was straight and down, almost reaching her shoulders. Her eyes were a dark brown, very similar to mine. She had Jasey's lips, perfect and slim. Her nose too. "Can I help you?" A woman asked carrying grocery's. Jasey looked at her, and stared suddenly. "Jasey?! Sweetie!" She squealed, hugging her. "Hey Olivia." She whispered, replying to her hug. "Laura, it's not polite to stare at Jasey." Olivia pointed out.

I stared at 'Laura' as she nodded. "Sorry." She said in her high-pitched voice. "Come in! Come in!" Olivia ordered, unlocking and opening the front door. "Who's she?" I hissed in Jasey's ear. "She was my dad's receptionist, a family friend." She answered, shaking. "Why is Holly with her?" Jasey shrugged as Olivia came back to the door. "Your dad's coming down today, he must have sent you to see us." My eyes widened, as did Jasey's as we walked inside.
