So just got finished watching Tangled with my Mom and Dad. And then my Dad fell asleep. During TANGLED! Oh no, that does not happen, even during that movie. So, I took my handy dandy marker- still not sure if its permanent or not, and drew a weird looking picture of Rapunzel on his forehead. Yeah, beat that.

Anywho, it's 10:36 on a school night, and (according to my mother) I needed to go to bed. Which means that I need to be in my bed. Which I am. So technically, I'm not NOT following her rules... if that makes sense. Alright back to the story!

Disclaimer: It's true! I own- (gets attacked by Max's herd of goats) alright, I don't own Wizards of Waverly Place. STOP EATING MY HAIR!


Chapter 6: I Don't Remember
Alex's POV

"Ow!" I muttered as I got bit my what could have been the hundreth mosquito.

"You okay?" Justin asked, still walking. We had been walking for a good hour now, and we still didn't know how close we were to the mountains. It was starting to get dark now, but we said that we should keep going.

Archie was lost, again, but that really didn't slow us down. Justin's pants and shirt were starting to dry from the mucky quick sand, so that was a good sign. Of what? Pants drying? Oh shut up Alex, I'm just trying to lighten the mood.

There was a patch of light coming up ahead, and Justin quickly started walking towards it. I followed him, seeing that he stopped but kept on walking, until he put his arm infront of me, stopping me from taking another step over the cliff. Woah, that was a close one.

"How are we going to get across this? It's way to big and deep. We're totally, completely, hopelessly doomed- oh wait there's instructions!" He started out grumbling but then became cheery at the end. I snorted. He rolled his eyes at me then looked back at the map.

"There's that nice positive attitude I love about you Justin," I joked, but he wasn't listening.

"It says we have to build a path of stone," he said confidently.

"That's no gonna happen."

"With magic,"

"That might happen," I trailed off, looking to see how far down the drop was. I swallowed. Alright, not looking down again...

The next minute, Justin is crouching on the ground, admiring the work of the rocks he magically put together to get us across the other side. He stood up, turning to face me. "What? No, loser?" He coughed out the word. "No anything? Oh, was that a, 'Thank you Justin for making us a way to getting over the cliff?' Yeah, thought so." He said smugly. Archie suddenly came out of nowhere, patting Justin on the back, telling him good job.

Justin started to walk towards the bridge, but it was my turn to stop him, moving my hand infront of his body so he couldn't get passed. "What?" He asked, moving my arm to holding my hand. I squeezed his hand, then reached down and grabbed a rock. "Alright what's a pebble going to do to-" but I threw the rock onto his bridge. It rolled, then came to a stop a few feet away from us.

Nothing happened for a second, until suddenly all of his rock bridge came tumbling down, falling into the water down below. I turned to look at Justin, who was still staring at the smoke coming up from the rocks. He turned to look at me, and sheepishly smiled. I smiled a sarcastic look at him, as Archie told us he was going to stand behind us, letting us think. I rolled my eyes. When could we ditch these two?

"Admit it," I told Justin as we were standing on two huge rocks, surrounded by other small rocks floating around us in mid air. "this isn't such a bad idea. It's just a simple levitation spell," I rambled off to Justin. I was as nervous as ever, every time I looked down.

"Yes, yes, you're brilliant. Focus." Justin said quickly. I sighed.

"Why do you always get mad every time I do something right?" I asked him suddenly. He looked over at me with a confused expression.

"Because it's like you don't even try," he finally let out. Did he really mean that? "you don't even think about it."

"Not thinking about it works for me," I told him quietly.

"Exactly, and it's not fair. I know every there is to know about magic, and you just come along, and... and you do it. That's why I study all the time."

"Wait, so it's not because your a dork?" I joked. He chuckled as he jumped across onto the other rock again. We were in the middle now, and I looked down quickly, then looked back up at Justin.

Suddenly the rocks started to tremble and Justin grabbed onto my waist, pulling me closer to him. I closed my eyes, then re-opened them a moment later, seeing that we hadn't falled yet. We kept going.

"Do you even want to be the family wizard?" Justin asked suddenly, looking at me after we hopped onto the rocks three times.

"I don't know..." I said honestly. "I think I do, but I'm not sure." We stopped talking for awhile, getting closer to the other end by just a couple of feet.

"You know, everyone wants me to be more like you," I told him truthfully. I've heard a lot of people saying, it. Either if it was in my face or if it was behind my back, but I always heard it. Maybe if I was like Justin then this would have never happenend.

"Hey," Justin said, taking one of his hands and moving away a piece of my hair that had fallen into my eyes. His other hand was flat down, holding up most of the stones. It amazed me how he could concentrate on two different things at once. "don't listen to what they tell you, Alex. You're perfect just the way you are."

I stared at him, astonished. Did he really just say that? All of a sudden he was grabbing onto my with one arm, pulling me onto his rock as mine dipped down lowly. With his arm still around me he shot his palm out toward the rock, bringing it back up. I gasped, putting both my hands out to get the rock so he wasn't straining himself.

He smiled a small smile at me, moving the rock back into our path. "I got it."

"See? You're good at everything." I said sadly, looking down. Which was a bad idea. I took a step back, almost falling off the rock but steadying myself. Justin looked panicked, but he couldn't have reached out for me anyway, since both his hands were occupied. "Alright, let's just get across."

I took back the rock after some arguing, but I only had it for a couple more minutes, since we finally made it across to the other side. We turned back and looked at far we had come. Archie's face wasn't as clear as it used to be, and his bird was a little spec. Good. She was starting to get on my nerves.

"Alright, now bring the rocks back to get me across," Archie called. All of a sudden the rocks fell down into the river. I shrugged at him.

"It will take to long. We'll come back for you after!" Justin called, grabbing onto my arm and pulling me away.

"Bye!" I yelled, almost running into a tree but dodging it quickly. This was going to be a long walk.


"Justin," I panted. We had been walking for what I think was three hours now, since the sun was starting to set. "can we stop?" He was ahead of me, sweating and breathing somewhat normally, while I was out of breath. How was he not as tired as I was? Oh yeah, beacuse this is the most you've ever worked out in your entire life.

He nodded, walking us more into the trees and setting his backpack down on a rock. He took out a bottle of water for both of us and we both chugged it, quickly setting it back in the backpack to keep it cool.

Minutes later, Justin came back with some firewood. He quickly set it up, reaching back into the bag and pulling out a lighter. He lit it quickly, the whole fire lighting up the dark night, and starting to warm me up. It was getting pretty cold out, and I was still in a short sleeve shirt and capris. I wrapped my arms around my knees, resting my chin on them as I looked at the fire. Justin came and sat next to me, keeping a distance.

I turned towards him and arched my eye brow. He threw his arm over my shoulder, pulling me into his side. I sighed, content. "Much better," I murmered to him. We sat there for a while, until I started shivering. He released me quickly, taking off his button down shirt and wrapping it around my shoulders, leaving him in a white beater and his jeans.

I thanked him quietly, and we resumed the spot that we were in a couple of seconds ago. It was silent for a while, until I had to break it. "You know, what if we don't find the stone quick enough and we lose everyone?" I asked quietly, looking into his eyes. I saw something that must have been what I was feeling. He was scared. Frightenend was a better word.

"Don't worry about it," he said, smiling a sad smile at me. The light from the fire lightening up his face. "we will."

"How do you know?" I said, a tear sliding down my cheeck quickly. He moved his hand up to my face cupping it.

"Because," he whispered, leaning in closer. His hot breath flew over my face. I looked down. We wouldn't be in this situation if I hadn't have casted that spell. I looked back up when another breath hit me. "it's you and I... how can we not?"

I nodded, leaning my head on his shoulder, which he replied with resting his head on top of mine. We sat there silently for awhile, until I broke the silence with a yawn. Justin stood up, grabbing onto my hand and bringing me to lie down on the ground next to him. Suddenly I was very tired, so I turned onto my side and wrapped my arm around Justin who pulled me closer to him, my head tucked under his chin.

"Justin?" I whispered, panicking for a second. His breathing picked up as he answered with his own whisper. "I don't remember our first kiss..." I trailed off. He tensed up for a moment but then relaxed, tightening his grip on me.

"I don't either Alex... I don't either."
