MISFIT ❁ ALEX ALVAREZ

Locked Down ✰

"But this lockdown is awesome. Maybe it's the Daleks. Actually, this seems like a pretty serious situation. But it's okay, we'll just hang out and talk." Syd suggested, making Elena clearly nervous 

"Talk? Yeah." Elena lied, trying to pretend that didn't freak her out at all

"Wait. Keep the costumes on, and go up to Schneider's. He's a man child who lives off his parents, and likes dressing up in weird costumes. He is Comic-Con." Penelope suggested

"I think we're gonna be stuck here for a while." Alex groaned

I tried to get up to stand, and head back to Schneider's, but Alex pulled me back down, "Don't leave. I don't want to be stuck with them."

"Fine." I groaned, putting my legs back up

"I'm sorry we're going to miss the opera. Let me see if I can get a refund on our tickets." Dr. B said Lydia

I tuned out the conversation and laid my head on Alex's shoulder, so I could watch the video he was watching.

"Hey, Kids, why don't you go to your rooms and wait until dinner?" Penelope spoke, bringing my attention back to her

"Cool." Syd smiled

"You want us to be alone in my room? Me and my date?" Elena asked

"Leave the door open. Feet on the ground. Alex will check on you." Penelope insisted, making the boy upset

"No, ew." He groaned

"Come on." Penelope begged, pulling me and Alex out of the chair and pushing all of us down the hall.

"That was weird." I laughed

"Who cares, we can watch YouTube." Alex shrugged

"Wait, I hear Schneider." I sighed, dragging him back into the living room.

"Okay. But can I stay?" We heard Schneider ask, when we walked into the living room.

"Hey, Schneider." I greeted, standing behind the tall man

"Ahh." He squealed,  jumping in his spot

I furrowed my brows and pat his arm, "I'm all alone up there, Aria ditched me."

"You're a grown man." I pointed out

"Do you have any idea how scary it is being a wealthy white man in a lavish apartment?" Schneider asked, "I'm a target."

"Of course you can stay, Schneider. Why should this night be different from any other night?" Lydia shrugged

Alex said something in Yiddish and Dr. B gave him a high five.

I rolled my eyes and pulled him back to Elena's room, "Now we can watch YouTube, and I can play with your hair."

"Really?" He asked, laughing

"It's soft, and I want to braid it, maybe do a Mohawk." I suggested

"Your weird, but you're my best friend, so fine." He sighed, opening Elena's door

We walked into Elena's room because we had to watch her and Syd. I sat on the bed and he sat closer to me so I could braid his hair, "French or Dutch?"

"French." He shrugged

"So, I guess you're stuck with me." Syd said, smiling at Elena

Elena laughed nervously, pacing around her room

"Oh. A Wrinkle in Time." Syd noticed, picking up the book from the small shelf

"It's stupid." Elena interjected, waving it off
