Hey everybody, it's the captain here with another chapter of Back to the beginning. First off I really appreciate the support from you guys, this story may not get a ton of reviews but I'm happy you guys are constantly supporting me. Secondly, I apologize that some of the episodes are in random order but I feel like this order seems better. Let's proceed with the story then, I do not own Wizards of Waverly Place or any of its characters.
I used to drown in a chocolate fountain
I think I'm starting to get used to the experience of living back in 2007. It's nice to live in a time where everything was so innocent, plus we didn't have to save the world every so often.
So, I started my date by walking Miranda to class but I knew I couldn't kiss her goodbye as that would play an important role later. After talking with a few of my friends about video games and stuff, I decided to talk to Harper and Alex.
"Well, how's it going with you two?" I asked my sister and her best friend who looked a little uncomfortable at that moment.
"Alex failed her Spanish midterm." Harper blurted out to me while Alex just glared at her for revealing that. I suddenly knew what would this event lead up to.
"Is that true Alex?" I asked Alex with all the surprise I could muster. She looked a little embarrassed as she tried to ignore me.
"Yeah, it's true but don't go telling mum and dad alright? I don't want to have to prank you." Alex told me with a mischievous smile that made her look really pretty.
The rest of the day was rather uneventful until we got back home. I told mum and dad about Alex failing to keep the continuity.
"Alex, care to tell us why have you failed your Spanish midterm?" Dad asked Alex who I could tell was trying to find a way to reduce the severity of her punishment.
"Well, dad. I wanted to study but I couldn't as Max and Justin were busy playing paintball on the terrace." Alex said with a smirk.
"Boys, I want you two to clean the bricks of the terrace as your punishment. Alex, you are not going on your date with Riley." Dad stated to Alex which made her groan in frustration.
As mum went to go prepare to help Alex study, I went to talk to Alex.
"What do you want, Justin? I need to study so that I can go out with Riley this Friday." She told me but we both knew she won't actually study.
"I just came to say that I knew you were going to rat me and Max out so we cleaned the bricks already. I also want to offer you my help if you need it." I told her which made her stick her tongue at me. I left her to get tutored by mum.
A little while later, Dad gathered us into the lair for our wizard lesson. Unsurprisingly, the lesson was about pocket elves. Alex seemed pretty interested when Dad told us that they are pocket elves for different subjects. The lesson was going on pretty well until the pocket elf spotted Max eating some chocolate.
"Eh, boyo. Can you give me a wee bit of chocolate?" The elf asked Max with a thick Irish accent.
"Sure, here you go." Max said to the elf before Dad and I both rushed to snatch the chocolate away before the elf could get his hands on it.
"Max, giving a pocket elf some chocolate makes them really hyper. So, that will not be a good idea." I stated to Max which I could sense Dad feeling proud of my foreknowledge so to speak.
After dinner as we were all about to retreat into our own rooms, I saw Alex sneak off to the lair. I followed her there for my obligatory confrontation.
"What are you doing here Alex?" I asked Alex as she tried unsuccessfully to try and conceal the pocket elf container from me behind her back.
"I just wanted to do some reading on my own. Is that wrong?" Alex said but that lie didn't fool me in the slightest.
"Alex, I know you're trying to smuggle the pocket elf to school to help you cheat on your Spanish midterm. No trying to pass it off as your retainer case." I said to Alex which left a dumbfounded look on her face.
"How did you know? Ok fine, I'm going to cheat. So?" Alex said before leaving the lair.
The next day, Alex entered the subshop with her Spanish midterm paper in her hand triumphantly. Mum and Dad were really shocked that she got an A but Dad allowed her to go on her date after an awkward talk.
"So, I can't believe my little sister is going on her first date." I said as Alex was deciding her outfit for the date.
"Just shut it, you big dork. Now come and help me decide which outfit I should wear." She said before I helped her pick the outfit out.
Max had managed to sneak a pocket elf into her purse while we were talking. I decided that it would be best to make as little changes to the general continuity although we put the chocolate in this time.
After Alex had left, Max and I decided to play some Ybox to pass the time before the chocolate hits the fan,
"Theresa, Alex used one of the pocket elves to cheat on her Spanish midterm." Dad told her as he was holding an empty capsule.
"Then, what are we waiting for? Let's march right there and punish her." Mum stated before they left.
They both got back about 15 minutes later with Alex in tow. Mum and Dad had a suspicion that Max and I were to blame for the chocolate fiasco but Alex didn't blame us.
"Thanks Alex, we would have been dead if they knew." Max said to Alex who just smiled at him sweetly.
"You both do know that now I will have to get even with you two." Alex said which sent Max running to our parents confessing his crimes.
"Let me guess, you want to put Elmer's glue into our toothpaste." I stated to Alex with a smirk.
"How did you know what I was going to prank you with?" Alex asked me as she rinsed herself off on the terrace.
"I have my ways. Goodnight Alex." I said to Alex before kissing her on the cheek. I didn't fail to notice the blush creeping up on her face. The kiss tasted sweet, pardon the pun.
I'm sorry there wasn't much Jalex in this instalment. I just couldn't add any more as it interrupts the flow. A minor sneak peak but the flying carpet episode will be a very sappy episode. Next up is first kiss before the carpet, until next time read on.
