Ghost Of You (Jalex) by futureyoungrenegade

-COMPLETED- Jack Barakat ended his own life eight years ago at the young age of nineteen. Or... that was the common belief, anyway. Alex Gaskarth was left to deal with the heartbreak that was destined to haunt him every time winter came around, every time he heard a guitar, and, truthfully, with every breath that entered his lungs. Jack was painted on everything in Alex's mind. His hands felt cold without Jack's fingers intertwined with his; his lips felt useless without Jack's pressed against them; his heart felt empty without Jack's love there to fill it. Until, given some time and some good friends, everything changes. ==+== POV switches between multiple people. Inspired by "Ghost Of You" by 5 Seconds Of Summer. The only trigger warning is the mention that Jack has committed suicide in the past. Otherwise, this will be a safe fanfiction with the exception of cussing. Started: December 9, 2019. Finished: December 16, 2019.

You Keep Me Safe (Jalex) by futureyoungrenegade

-COMPLETED- I wasn't wanted or needed by anyone, and I knew that far too well by now. There was nothing left for me in the cruel wrath of life until I found everything in the deep brown eyes that belonged to a tall, sensitive boy by the name of Jack Barakat. The night that I thought would be another boring, sad chapter of my story ended up being the beginning of a whole new one. He kept me safe when not even my own house could. ==+== Told in Alex's POV. Trigger warnings: anxiety, abuse (verbal/physical), cussing. Disclaimer: This is partnered with "You Keep Me Sane" (which is not completed), but you do not need to read the other one before this one, or the other way around. It's the exact same story in another perspective. Started: Dec. 18, 2019 Finished: May 26, 2021

By Now - (Jalex) by alovelikejalex

(WILL BE DELETING SOON!) After almost six years of being together, twenty-four year old Alex Gaskarth knows exactly what he wants; and that's to be with Jack, forever. The problem is though, is that Jack isn't quite sure what he wants - yet. Leading Alex to make the hardest decision of his life and be forced to finally move on after years of patiently waiting for something more. But what happens in a year when Alex unexpectedly gets an envelope in the mail inviting him to attend Jack's wedding? Disclaimer: the story title is from Marianas Trench's song By Now. Duh. Also, the song was sort of an inspiration for this story. But the plot and storyline is all mine. Except for the characters. I don't own the characters, sigh. Just their personalities that I've made up for fiction sake for the story. Warning: BUTT SEX. Sorry not sorry.
