Back in Your Head

- Tegan & Sara

Build a wall of books
Between us in our bed
Repeat, repeat the words
That I know we both said
Relax into the need
We get so comfortable
Remember when I was
So strange and likeable
I just want back in your head
I just want back in your head
I'm not unfaithful
But I'll stray
When I get a little scared
When I get a little scared
When I get a little
When I jerk away from
Holding hands with you
I know these habits hurt
Important parts of you
Remember when I was
Sweet and unexplainable
Nothing like this person,
Unlovable
I just want back in your head
I just want back in your head
I'm not unfaithful
But I'll stray
When I get a little scared
When I get a little scared
When I get a little scared
When I get a little
Run, run, run Run Run, run, run
Run I just want back in your head
I just want back in your head
I'm not unfaithful
But I'll stray

Author's Note:

Thanks to: DarkMoon2222 for being the first one to review the chapters :] and since someone has admitting to liking the story, I'll just have to continue writing. Which I have no problem doing, but I think the way the story is going is to be a bit different then you guys have been getting. Plus my writing style has changed some since the first chapter, but I'm trying my best to keep it going. Thanks again for reading!

Whoever said it would be getting half of her punishment.

REGULAR POINT OF VIEW

With Jay

The sun was just in the middle of the sky, shining its best and pretty good at blinding me. I started eating some Bugles, man those things have got crack in them or something. I was just finishing the second half of the big bag I had gotten at the gas station, only a couple more minutes and I would be at Peter's. Dealing drugs wasn't the best job, but damn it had some perks. The only thing that could make this day worse was the road block ahead. FUCK. I looked down and hid the roach from the joint and prayed to anyone listening that they wouldn't notice anything wrong. I didn't have anything huge but a couple grams of coke and weed were enough to get me in big enough trouble. I didn't know any other way to get to Peter's either. As the traffic slowed to a stopping point, I had to gain some confidence; if there was any sign that I looked nervous…I would be fucked. I knew they were in the trunk and I didn't see any drug dogs and that was a wonderful relief. As I made the way up to the officers, I tried not to hold my breath and look nervous but it couldn't be helped. When finally got up there, I gave them a little nod as I stopped and gave them my license.

"Now, why are you out of school today, Mr. Hogart?"

"Going to check-up on my grandma, she hasn't been feeling too good lately." The lie came easily off my tongue and off my brain without thinking too hard about it.

"Well, everything checks out, I hope your grandmother feels better Mr. Hogart." He gave me a 'police-nod' and gave me back my license. He waved another car further and I pressed the gas and took an escape and realized I had been holding my breath since he had taken a few minutes to check out my license. Yeah, it wasn't clean, with a few tickets here and there but thankfully I had never been caught doing my little drug runs.

I continued to drive up to wear Peter was staying for the week, I hadn't had a clue why he would be staying here but then again the boy was weird. I was racing to get back to my girls; I didn't want to be without them.

WITH Alex

Alex PoV

I sat on the swing at the playground, letting it rock back and fourth slightly. I couldn't remember ever feeling like this complicated about something that should be so simple. I figured the best thing to do would just tell them the truth. My mind was so focused on the things at hand; I didn't notice Mia walking towards me. She had a smile on her face and her hands on her belly.

"Hey darling, zoned out much?" She sat down beside me as best as could. She lifted her feet and let herself swing a little.

"Ha yeah, just a little. What gave it away?" I stuck my tongue at her in a playful way and continued to let my feet drag.

"Well least you haven't been getting calls from a crazy ex. I swear Lucas has called me so many times in the last hour and I've just been ignoring them. He's been texting saying that he wanted back into my life, but just for the sake of the baby. He knew he messed up too much for me and him but he was trying so hard to get me to reconsider letting him in the babies life. I think he actually meant it this time. I was actually thinking about, I care about JT too much for anything to happen. We did talk one time and decided that we would explain to her when she got old enough but for now JT would be good as 'daddy'. But maybe Lucas coming back into the picture would be good. He said he wasn't doing this for me; he was doing this for himself and his baby. That it didn't matter if I said no, because he would try to always be there for it. I'm really thinking about letting this happen."

"Wow, that's a lot to handle." I couldn't believe after all we had done for her, she would let this happen. Acting as if he didn't threaten her or do those horrible things or even that he said those terrible lies. But I guess I could see where she would falter.

We both sat there, enjoying the silence.

Craig PoV

I lay back on the bed, letting the scent of freshness overcome me. I had fucked up in the past that was without a doubt. But it wasn't Manny on my mind anymore, strangely enough it was Lucas. This couldn't be right. I mean, we were pretty good friends and I had never saw him anything more than that. What the fuck was wrong with me? I was thinking about my best friend in that way. I couldn't believe the way things were happening; maybe this was some bad reality show or a stupid fanfiction. But I took a deep breath and started to relax but thoughts of Lucas just kept popping in my head, not wanting to leave. Maybe I could talk to him about this and we could figure out what was wrong with me. This guy had been my best friend for a good while, even when we were fighting with our girlfriends. Having a girlfriend made you straight right? I wasn't thinking of actually doing anything with Lucas, and damn did I search my brain hard for anything, he was just my best guy friend.

Something wasn't right with me.

Rick's PoV

I would get those guys back for treating me this way, there was no around it. Craig had run off and told a teacher on me. Fucking idiot. I sat there and explained how I needed a break from class because some stuff was going with my girlfriend and they bought it. I just stayed in detention for the rest of the day, it wasn't anything new. But I had to find Mia and maybe even Manny too. I had a little present for them from their ex-lovers.

If they didn't want to be big boys, I would do the dirty work for them. They talked about these things meaning they wanted them. Sure, Lucas said he was going to try and be there for the baby. That was a load of shit, deep down he knew there was no other way to get rid of that little parasite. And Craig, who did he think he was kidding? He wanted a little slave girl and at first Manny was good at that. But then she hung with those girls from Hurst. That was nothing, I would take care of their problems and maybe they would see how great of a friend I am. Just would need to find them first.

Jay's PoV

Doing the deal took longer than I expected and I was running late on my schedule. Fuck! I made sure Johnny was behind me. Thank god we had spilt up, just incase someone got caught. I couldn't press the gas hard enough to get back home. Something in my gut was telling me I needed to get back home and quick.

RICK'S PoV

I was just driving around the old playground and I happened to see Mia and Alex. Oh, this would be good. I stopped the car a little ways off and got out, my gun already in hand.
