**Aleah's POV**

SING it for the deaf,
SING it for the blind,
SI-

Tony rolled over andgrabbed my phone from the bedside table to silence my alarm, then rolled back to me and squeezed my waist. "Why do girls always feel the need to get up so early?" he asked my in the sexiest morning voice, "I just wanna lay here with you."

"That's why we do it," I told him gently. "So we can stay in bed a bit longer after the alarm goes off.

"Then why don't you just set it for when you actually wanna get up?" Morning voice plus a bit irritated was the sexiest thing ever.

"Tony," I whispered as I rolled over to face him, seeing his eyes partially open, "stop talking, baby. You're half asleep and I'm getting turned on. So you sleep and I'm going to go make breakfast."

"Wait, wait, wait!" Tony said, still sleepy sounding, but much more awake. "If that's the case, then why don't you just wake me up a bit?" he gave me the most sexual face and pulled me on top of him so I was straddling him.

"Because then I'd have to shower." I said, looking down at him.

"Then we can do it in the shower and save time!" he pleaded.

"Tony, no. I don't have time." I giggled at him.

"It's five thirty! And we don't have to leave until seven thirty."

"Okay, we can either… do that…" he laughed at my awkwardness, "or I can make you a nice, big breakfast!"

"Ali, we still haven't gone grocery shopping, we don't have food for a big breakfast. We have Eggos." I groaned as I remembered that we were going to go to the store the night before, but never did. I shut my eyes and laid my head down on Tony's chest. "I win." he whispered.

"You're taking advantage of me!" I laughed out as he flipped us over so he was hovering above me.

"You said you were turned on." he groaned into my ear, sending me back to the high I was in when he was just waking up. Without giving me time to respond, he pressed his lips to mine and slipped his hands under the large shirt I had on.

"Ohhh no!" I said, pushing him off me, then getting on top of him. I kissed him deeply with my hands in his hair, and I could feel him getting excited. His hands went to my thighs and slithered up the large shirt I had on. I let my hands rest on his bare chest as I laid on top of him, my lips still battling against his. He broke the kiss for a moment to pull my shirt off over my head, then pulled me back down to him. I kept thinking in the back of my mind that I was going to make us both late because I'd definitely have to shower the smell of sex off myself. It may have been a cheap move, but in an attempt to speed everything up a bit, I started grinding my hips against him.

SING it for the-

"Ah, fuck!" Tony groaned as we realized he'd only snoozed the alarm.

"It's a sign, babe." I smiled down at him, "Later." I pecked his lips and ran to the bathroom. After a few minutes, the door opened and Tony walked in wearing just his underwear. I blushed uncontrollably, but stayed quiet as I straightened my hair.

"Yep," I assumed by his renewed sleepy-voice that he fell asleep again. "I know you want me, but it's tooooooo late." With his eyes only half open, he took off his underwear and got into the shower as I tried pointlessly not to look at him in the mirror.

"This level of desperation is not very attractive, Tone." I giggled to him.

"If that's what you need to tell yourself, darling." He called from the other side of the shower, turning on the water.

As he continued his shower we both sang along idly to the music I played, laughing now and then when one of us got the words wrong. I decided not to put on lipstick today only because I wanted Tony to kiss me, and he wouldn't if I had lipstick on. I finished my hair, so I walked to the bedroom to get dressed. "Tone, I'll be right back, I'm gonna go get dressed. Want me to grab clothes for you?"

"That would be great, thanks, babe." He called back from the shower. I went up to the bedroom and pulled out clothes (picture Tony's snapback without the sticker on it lol) for Tony and I, along with a pair of Star Wars plugs and a gold skull lip ring for myself.

I walked back into the bathroom to give Tony his clothes and- "Oh god I'm sorry!" I looked down awkwardly and bit my lip as I walked in on Tony just getting out of the shower.

"Ali, did you really expect me to care?" he chuckled at my reaction, "now quit biting your lip." Before I realized it, he walked across the spacious bathroom and lifted my chin with his finger before pecking my lips sweetly.

"Get dressed, ya nasty!" I yelled jokingly as I threw Tony's clothes at him, pretending I hadn't just kissed back. I walked back over to the mirror where all my makeup was and finished getting ready while Tony got dressed.

After a while, I was finished getting ready, and decided I was done getting ready, and walked out to the living room to see Tony asleep on the couch with his Ninja Turtles snapback over his eyes. I put some freezer waffles in the toaster and went back to the couch to wake Tony.

"Toooonyyy…" I whispered as I sat on his lap, straddling him. "It's 7:00, baby. I put some food in the toaster, so we can eat before we leave." I whispered the news into his ear, hoping I could wake him and tease him at the same time.

He lifted his hat from his eyes and looked right into mine. "You're beautiful," He mumbled to me before pulling my lips gently against his, "even before you put on your makeup." he smirked at me as we pulled away from each other.

"I love you, Tone." I said to him, my cheeks flaming.

"Duh!" he grinned at me just before we heard the toaster pop. Before I could get off of him, he stood up and carried me bridal style to the kitchen and set me down on the table. "Here you go, babe." he smiled as he handed me a plate with two waffles on it and he put the other two on his own plate. He leaned against the counter as he ate.

Once we finished our food, we both went to the bathroom to brush our teeth, then went out to the car after grabbing our backpacks. "Music?" I asked with a smile, holding my lower lips between my teeth.

"Only if you promise to stop biting your lip so I don't go absolutely insane!" he said with a serious face as he started the car.

"I'm sorry!" I laughed, "I honestly don't try it, it's just a habit!" Without waiting for his response, I put on All Around Me by Flyleaf.

"Oh my god!" Tony said, his mouth agape, as the song ended. "You never told me you can sing like that!"

"Like what…?" I was so confused, thinking that he was probably making fun of me. "Sorry, I know I suck, it's just fun."

"Ali, baby, are you kidding? That was fucking amazing! You're almost better than Vic!" We both laughed out loud at the comparison.

"We actually have this one song that he wrote that we do together acoustic…"

"You're going to show me sometime!" Tony said excitedly.

After a few more songs and some idle conversation, we finally arrived at Clairemont High, AKA Hell. "Ready for your first full day?" I asked him.

"Only because I know you're going to be with me all day." Tony leaned over and kissed me before getting out and appearing at my side to open my door. I handed him is backpack and grabbed my own before hopping out. I saw Mel sitting in the grass with her headphones in looking upset.

"Hey, Tone," he looked over at me with a concerned look. "Can we go over and talk to Mel before the bell rings?"

"Of course, babe." He smiled and grabbed my hand, making me remember the gauze still on my arm.

"Melly!" I called as we approached her. Once we were only a few feet away, Tony sat down in the grass and pulled me down next to him so I sat between the two of them. "Why do you look all sad? Kellin said that he uhh… that you and him are…" I grinned at her, not sure how to word it.

"Shut up, Aleah!" She never called me by my real name, which showed she was upset even more than the tears bursting from her eyes. I squeezed Tony's hand before letting go, then leaned over and hugged Melissa close to me.

"What's wrong, Melly? You can tell me." I whispered to her as I rubbed her shoulders.

"Well…" She looked warily at Tony, and I tossed him the headphones from my pocket and gave him a sad look. He got the clue and put them in, leaving us to talk in peace. "Kellin asked me out on Saturday night and I said yes because… well I don't know, I love him, but not really that way. Anyway, Jaime flipped out, saying shit like 'You knew I liked her,' and 'Way to steal my girl,' and I mean, I liked Jaime a lot, but he wasn't doing anything about it, and… I don't know. I ruined their friendship, and I lost both Kellin and Jaime."

I squeezed her shoulders again before I spoke, "It's okay, hun. Jaime only got mad because he likes you! Besides, we're all so close, there's no way everyone can stay mad." The bell rang, signaling we had to go our separate ways. As Mel bolted off inside the school, I jumped on Tony, who was staring intensely at his screen.

"Shit!" He said as I landed in his lap.

"Ready to go?" I asked innocently as I batted my eyelashes at him. Without responding, he slipped his phone and the earbuds into his pocket and threw me over his shoulder as he stood up. "TONYYY!" I shrieked. As he began walking, I heard high heels approaching. Oh god… I thought. Tony set me down in front of him, and his face boiled with anger.

"So do you always just move in and start fucking the same day you meet someone, Harris?" Jordan giggled. She had an obnoxious amount of cleavage showing, and she just looked prissy. My heart sank as I saw Tony look her up and down, then I smirked as he made a disgusted face. "Ugh, you whore. You just stand there while he checks out other girls 'cause you're so desperate. Well, Cara told me what you did to her, and I'm going to make you pay."

"Should've known all the bitches would be backing each other up." Tony hissed at her as he hugged me into his side. "Now pull your damn shirt up, your tits are falling out." I covered my mouth to stop myself from laughing out loud as Tony insulted her. Jordan stood, shocked, as Tony and I walked away, his arm around my shoulders.

After the usual monday morning speech from the teacher, Tony and I quickly went over to the acoustic guitars and started playing around. "So, you gonna show me that song you and Vic do?" Tony asked me excitedly.

"I can't do it without Vicky! I only sing backup on the chorus and part of the bridge… besides there's a bunch of people ar-"

"No, baby. There's just you and me. Now sing for me. Please?" He practically begged me.

"Fine… just the bridge though!" Tony gave me a victorious grin, and I began to strum.

"If you were me, you would do the same…
'Cause I can't take any more.
I'll draw the shades and close the door.
Everything's not alright,
And I would rather...

As the sun went down, we ended up on the ground.
I heard the train shake the windows,
You screamed over the sound.
And as we own this night,
I'll put your body to the test with mine.
This love was out of control,
Tell me, where did it go?"

I ended up so caught up in the song that I ended up singing it to the end. By the time I finished, I looked right into Tony's eyes, and his jaw dropped. After a moment, I broke the stare to look around the room to find everyone's eyes fixed on me. "Tony, why is everyone staring at me?" I whispered to him.

"Because you're fucking amazing." he stated, still looking me right in the eyes. After a few more moments of total silence, half the room broke into applause, and half the room started calling out shit like emo, cutter, bitch, etc.

"Umm… Just for the record," I said nervously, loud enough for everyone to hear, "that song was written by one of my best friends, the incredibly talented Victor Vincent Fuentes…" I sat back down and just strummed quietly. Then I saw the teacher approach me. "Y-yes, Mrs. Clark?" I stuttered out nervously.

"I would like you to enter the school talent show next week. You can be solo or part of a group." She stated matter-of-factly.

"With all due respect, Mrs. Clark, I really don't-"

"Aleah, with the amount of class you've missed this semester, it doesn't look at though you are going to pass." I gave Tony a nervous glance, and he put his hand on my leg to comfort me. "However, I will give you a 92% if you enter."

I simply nodded, and she handed me and entry form before walking away. I had to hand it in to her by the next day.
