i would love if someone made me a banner(:
"Thank you Toronto! You were fucking awesome and we love you!" Alex yelled into the mic and ran off the stage. They finished their first show in Canada and Lucinda had to stay on the bus cause Bentley was acting up. Upset, Alex just wanted to get to the bus and see Lucinda's beautiful face but he knew he would have to repay his fans for everything they do by signing autographs and posing for pictures.
After what seemed like an hour, the guys finally headed to the bus and noticed that someone was yelling. "Bentley, put that down. Alex would kill me if something happened to that."
The guys looked at Alex as he bolted up the stairs of the bus and saw Lucinda putting his acoustic guitar on the small table. "Hey, is everything alright?"
Lucinda turned at the voice of Rian and nodded. "Yeah, just Bentley won't go to sleep. He's never been up at midnight. I've tried everything."
"Let me try something," Alex said picking up Bentley and walked to his bunk.
Lucinda sighed sitting next to Jack on the couch and watched as Rian and Zack look through the fridge. "Sorry about not being able to see your show. Bentley's been such a handful today."
"Don't be. There's like a billion more," Jack said and ruffled Lucinda's curly black hair.
"Bentley's asleep. Thanks to me," Alex said with a victory grin and sat across from Lucinda who gave him a shocked look.
"How? I've been trying for the last 4 hours."
"He seems to like it when you rub his back and sing to him. I sung him lullabies and he was out." When the word lullabies came out of Alex's mouth, Lucinda swore she saw a hint of sadness in his eyes. But she ignored it and sent a thankful glance to Alex.
They talked for awhile until Alex's phone rang and they all watched as his expression went from happy to upset to sad. "No dude it's cool. We can find someone to fill for you. Yeah, feel better."
"Dude don't tell me Vinny is sick again," Zack said finishing up his bagel.
"Yeah. Right when the tour started. Now we need to find a new merch person." Alex groaned and ran his hands down his face.
"I could do it," Lucinda spoke up quietly.
"Who would watch Bentley," Rian asked. She never thought of that.
"Ohh, I got it. She can keep Bentley with her at the tent. Then when we perform, Flyzik can watch him. I mean his bunk is practically a kids place with all the fucking Mickey Mouse," Jack said. The guys nodded but Lucinda was a little worried. She never really met their tour manager but if the guys trusted him, so could she.
"Jack, you're a genius," Lucinda ruffled Jack's hair.
"Oh I know," he said while dusting off his shoulder.
They all laughed at Jack and Lucinda looked over at Alex and saw him staring into space. "Alex, you alright?"
He looked up at her and nodded, "Just tired, I think I'm going to head to bed. Goodnight."
They all said goodnight and Alex disappeared into his bunk. Lucinda looked away from him and to Rian who was staring at her. "What?"
"You so have it for Gaskarth."
"Psh, whatever," she said waving him off. Even if it was true.
"Luce, don't even try to deny it." Zack said.
"I'm not. But I am going to bed. Night," she sang the last part and walked to her bunk but noticed that Bentley was asleep on Alex's chest and Alex was listening to his ipod. He smiled at her and went to give Bentley to Luce but she shook her head.
"You can keep him for the night. I don't want to wake him," she said then gave Bentley a kiss on the cheek. She went to walk to her bunk but Alex pulled her back.
"What about me," he said with a frown.
Giggling, she gave Alex a kiss on the cheek but let it linger a little bit longer then pulled away. "Goodnight Alex. See you in the morning."
She got on her bunk and smiled at Alex who returned it then she pulled the curtain and fell asleep.
Alex couldn't deny the butterflies. He liked her too much to mess this up so he would take this slow. He pulled his curtain shut and held Bentley tight then fell asleep.
"Lucinda, wake up. It's like 1 in the afternoon."
Once she heard that, Luce jumped up and looked around for Bentley but then she remember Alex had him for the night. She calmed down and looked at Jack. "Did you say I slept in passed 9?"
Jack laughed and nodded. "Yep. Alex could tell you were stressed from taking care of Bentley and not much sleep so he's taking care of him."
Luce smiled and followed Jack to the front of the bus. Zack and Rian were playing guitar hero and her heart nearly melted at the sight before her. Alex was sitting with his guitar and Bentley in his lap. He was holding Bentley's hand and strumming it against the strings.
"Wow, sleeping beauty's finally up. How'd you sleep," Rian asked not looking away from the game.
Luce sat next to Rian and stole the toy guitar and started playing against Zack. "Really really good. It felt nice to sleep in. Thank you Alex."
Alex looked up from the guitar and sent a smile to Luce. "No problem." He then went back to what he was doing. Bentley smiled and laughed as a note was played.
"Hey Luce since we're going to be in Canada for a while, would you want to grab lunch? We could catch up," Rian asked when Luce handed bag the toy guitar.
"I would love that."
Rian smiled at Luce then went back to playing the game. She took time to look at everyone on the bus. Rian; he was her brother and even though they missed so much time together, she was excited to get it back. He would be there for her no matter what. Then Jack; he was the funny guy in the group. He was there when Luce needed a laugh and was great at cheering Bentley up. Then Zack; he was quiet and shy, just like her. But she knew if she had to talk to someone privately, he would be there. Like an older brother. And lastly, Alex; he was perfect. He took care of Bentley when he didn't even need to. He was there to make her feel so much better about herself and her life. Of course his looks were just breathtaking but she didn't fall for him because of that. She fell for him for his personality.
"Alex can you still watch him? I'm going to shower and I need to go shopping when we stop next." Alex sent a smile and nodded.
Luce grabbed some clothes,(.com/all_time_low/set?id=35635291) and hopped in the shower. After she finished, she got changed and walked back to the front of the bus and saw Alex dressed in an All Time Low sweater, grey skinny jeans, and a beanie on his head. He had Bentley dressed in a pair of jeans and the All Time Shirt he got him. They both looked like they were going somewhere.
"First off, were all wearing All Time Low stuff," Luce said laughing along with Alex. "And where are you two headed?"
"We decided to come with. If that's okay?"
"But what if people saw you with a teen mom? Fans would not like that."
Alex just shrugged. "So what? You and Bentley are part of this family and they just have to deal with it."
Lucinda smiled and nodded. She grabbed her phone, stuffed a few things Bentley would need in her bag then her and Alex walked off the bus.
"I can take him if you want," Luce said towards Bentley.
"It's fine. You said you need to shop so the more hands for you."
Lucinda nodded and the 2 of them talked, laughed, and just had fun while shopping. As they finished up, they saw a group of girls stare at Alex. They all ran up to Alex and started talking to him. But one of them seem to finally notice that he was holding a kid. She looked to Alex then Lucinda.
"You have a kid with her? Come on Alex, you could do so much better. She looks like she's homeless," a blonde said holding onto Alex's free arm.
Lucinda knew that they weren't fans of Alex. They were just fans of something in his pants. "Listen here whore, we both know that you're not a fan of Alex. You just want to get in his pants then go around and tell all your slut friends that you slept with Alex Gaskarth. So do me a favor and fuck off."
Alex laughed and laced his fingers with hers and walked away from the group of girls that were standing there, dumbfounded.
"You alright," Alex said as the were walking back towards the bus.
"Sluts piss me off. I mean really you have nothing better to do than just make fun of people who had a hard life. Instead of making fun of their fake ass self's, they make fun of a teen mom."
Alex pulled Lucinda in him with his free arm and Bentley hugged her head. "Forget about them Luce, they have nothing better to do. You're better than those girls. You had a kid at a young age but you've done so much to make sure he has a great life."
Luce looked up to Alex's eyes and smiled. They both started to close the small gap between them. As their lips were about to touch, Bentley started fussing in Alex's arms. They both pulled away and Alex looked at Bentley. "You alright, Bent?"
"I think it's nap time for Bent," Luce said laughing. Alex smiled and they walked to the bus in silence. He wasn't upset or embarrassed that he was about to kiss Lucinda. He just knew that maybe right now isn't such a good time. Lucinda felt the same.
"Thanks for coming with us shopping Alex. You didn't have to." Alex handed Bentley to Lucinda once they were on the bus and shrugged.
"It's not a problem. The guys went to do their own things so I had free time."
Luce nodded. "Well me and Bentley are going to take a nap." Alex nodded and watched as she walked to her bunk. Sighing, Alex plopped down onto the sofa. His feelings for Lucinda were growing as each day passes. He was sick of the casual fucks. He was ready to settle down in a relationship. And he wanted that with Lucinda and he was ready.
"ALEX! You'll never guess what happened?," Jack exclaimed coming onto the bus.
"Dude shut up, Lucinda and Bentley are asleep," Alex said with a laugh. Jack quiet down and sat down next to Alex.
"We got nominated for Best Band Live in the Kerrang Awards. We're going to the award show next week. Can you believe that?"
Alex high-five Jack and smiled. "Dude this is awesome. I cannot wait."
Jack and Alex talked for a bit until they heard girls screaming then saw Zack and Rian run up the bus, out of breath. "Dude don't tell me you brought fan girls here?"
Zack looked at Alex and shrugged. "They were walking behind us but we never knew they were fans until we got close to the bus."
Jack groaned and looked out the window of the bus. They loved their fans but they just wish they could have one day to themselves. Jack waved to the screaming girls and looked at the guys. "We might as well just go sign some stuff." They nodded and followed Jack out of the bus.
Lucinda woke to Bentley sitting up and crying. Groaning, she picked up Bentley and walked to the front of the bus to feed him. She went wide eyed as she saw the guys outside of the bus surrounded by a bunch of screaming fans. As if Alex could feel her staring at him, he looked through the window and smiled at her. She returned the smile and cut up a banana into tiny pieces. She put them on a plate and gave it to Bentley who was sitting on the floor watching sponge bob on the TV.
Luce laid on the couch and smiled at her son. Bentley's curly black hair was growing and it seemed like his grey eyes get brighter everyday. She loved him so much but there were times she wished she could go out and have fun.
"I think my hand is about to fall off. I've never signed so much autographs before in my life," Zack said sitting on the sofa across from Lucinda.
"I think that was the biggest and loudest crowd of girls we've ever seen," Rian said walking onto the bus. He ruffled Lucinda's hair and sat on the ground with Bentley and watched Sponge Bob.
"Yeah but now I'm bored," Jack said sitting on Lucinda's stomach. She 'oofed' and pushed Jack off of her.
"Jeez Jack, how much do you weight," Lucinda asked laughing. Jack just shrugged and watched T.V. Alex walked onto the bus looking stressed out. "You alright Alex?"
He nodded at Luce. "Yeah. I think we all should go clubbing tonight."
The guys agreed but Luce shook her head. "I can't. I'm only 19 and who would watch Bentley?"
"When you're with All Time Low, you don't need to worry about getting in. And I'm going to stay with Kara. We need to check into the hotel and what not so I can watch him," Rian said from the floor.
Luce knew Kara was his girlfriend and she knew she was nice. Rian said he would take all of their bags to the hotel so she didn't have to worry. She could go out and have fun. Smiling, she nodded her thanks to Rian and stood up to get ready. "Give me like 20 minutes. Bye baby, mommy loves you." She gave Bentley a kiss and walked to the bathroom to get ready.
She straightened her black hair, did her make up, and slipped on a sexy little outfit. Tonight she was determined to get Alex to notice her and take the next step in their friendship. She knew he liked her and she knew he was afraid to hurt her. But she knew that he could never hurt her.
"Damnit women, hurry up," Jack yelled.
Lucinda giggled and walked out of the bathroom to the front of the bus and all the guys eyes were on her. (.com/clubbing/set?id=35654903) She fixed her skirt and looked at the guys. "I don't look sluty, do I?"
"You look hot." Zack smiled.
"Sexy," Jack said grinning and Luce looked at Alex. He was looking her up and down.
"You look amazing." She blushed and nodded her thanks.
"Did Rian already head to the hotel?"
The guys nodded. "Yep. Now let's get going. I'm ready do dance my ass off," Jack said pumping his fists into the air. They all laughed and followed Jack to the club across the street.
They waited in line to get in and as they got closer, Lucinda's heart began to beat faster. What if they don't let her in? Alex noticed that she was getting a little worried.
"Don't worry. You'll get in just fine," Alex whispered into her hear. She shivered and smiled at Alex. He returned the smile and laced fingers with her. They smiled the bouncer and let them walk in without checking I.D's.
"Bar here I come," Jack said. Zack laughed and walked to the bar with Jack.
"You can go too if you want Alex." He just shook his head and took her to the dance floor.
"I promised that I wouldn't drink and plus I just want to dance." He pulled her back against his chest and they danced to the beat.
Lucinda grinded onto Alex and she felt his grip on her hips tighten. She was going to have fun with this. She turned around, facing Alex, and started grinding her hips into Alex's. He closed his eyes at the feeling. Luce smirked and whispered into Alex's ear. "There's a lot more coming."
Alex held back a moan and started into Lucinda's eyes and continued to grind their hips together. She turned around again and slowly bent down and moved her ass into Alex's private region. He couldn't hold back the moan anymore and let it slip. But Luce never heard it. Luce stood back up and decided that she needed to get more into this. She put her hand behind Alex's head and continued to grind to the beat.
Alex had enough. It was his turn. He moved his hands from her hips to below her skirt line and he let his hands rest on the bare skin of her legs. He then slowly moved his hands up and let a few fingers slip up her skirt. When Luce didn't stop him, he continued to what he was going to do. He started to massage her inner thigh. She let a moan slip between her lips and looked into Alex's brown eyes. They were filled with lust.
She turned around and ran her hands down his chest and stopped above the button of his black skinny jeans. She pulled at the button but wouldn't unbutton it. Alex bit his lip and moved her hair to one side of her neck then started sucking on the bare side. He nibbled, kissed, and sucked until he heard her moan his name. Alex felt the urge in his pants grow after hearing that.
Lucinda cursed herself for letting that slip. She was afraid he would laugh and go dance with another chick. But he didn't. He stayed. She felt him pull away and saw him smirking.
"What," she asked confused.
"You're going to have a mark in the morning," he said pointing to her neck. She just laughed and decided she had to pay him back. She ran her hand up and down his leg and when she got close to his 'urge' she slowly ran her hand over it.
"Fuck Lucinda," Alex moaned. She smirked was going to do more but Jack called their names.
"Guys lets go! It's already 3 a.m."
Alex and Luce looked at each other. They were both dancing for at least an hour. Laughing, Luce walked towards Jack and Zack with Alex following. She knew Alex would be staring at her ass so she gave it a little extra shake and heard Alex laugh. Smirking, she achieved what she wanted to do tonight. She made Alex realize that she wanted more of him.
