Remembering Sunday
Five
At the table Jack and Alex sat side by side smiling at Jasey as she conversed with Alex’s parents. They seemed to be getting along well. Alex noted that his mother Isobel seemed to not only enjoy the company of his daughter but the company of his entire family as well. Just as Jack started to get seconds for himself, Alex stood up and cleared his throat. He waited patiently for the table to quiet down then spoke. “I believe that introductions are in order. Everyone, this little girl here,” Alex pointed towards Jasey, “is my daughter Jasey. I only met er a few days ago on her birthday. She is my beautiful five year old and deserves everything good that will come to her.”
Isobel spoke up with a question many didn’t know about quite yet. “Alex, who is her mother and where is she?” Alex noticed Jasey’s smile turned into a frown at the mention of Sunday.
Alex cleared his throat. “Jasey do you want to tell them or me?”
Jasey stood up. “I will daddy, I am going to have to get used to it when I start big school anyway.”
Alex nodded all the while thinking of the fact he has to start thinking about schools for Jasey next year.
“Hey everyone, my mummy’s name was Sunday Green. She, she got sick when I was three and she had to get treatment. She was told she had lung cancer. A few days ago mummy got really sick and went to the hospital, it was the day I met daddy. We were on our way too. Mummy told me she has to go somewhere and would come get me when she could. She went to heaven; daddy told me what it is. My mummy left me alone.” Jasey was crying now.
Alex got up and ran to her and hugged her tightly. Isobel got up and hugged the two as well. “Jasey, call me Nana, I won’t leave you to go to heaven for a long time so I will be here for you when you need a girl in your life ok. Also call Peter, you grandfather, Pa. Ok, we love you to the end of time and beyond so never forget that.” Isobel kissed Jasey’s forehead and sat down next to Peter.
When Jasey has stopped crying Alex got everyone’s attention once again. “Jack and I have some news to share with everyone. Jack and I are bi. And we are dating.” Alex held Jack’s hand and smiled at his family.
As soon as the words left Alex’s mouth his father spoke up. “Finally, it is about time you two realized it.” Everyone laughed and hugged and congratulated the two.
After the big announcements Matt stood up to start talking about the upcoming tour. As he spoke Alex realized he would have to bring Jasey on tour. Currently he had no one to baby sit and he wasn’t too sure he was ready to leave her alone for months at a time without worrying all tour. Alex decided then mentally that every tour e had Jasey would come with him. Now his only issue is finding a way in which Jasey can do her school work when the time comes. Matt was still speaking wen Alex started to pay attention. “Ok, now there is one problem currently, that is what will happen with Jasey, I imagine that Alex wants her to come so I have an idea. I can hire a tutor that will join us on tour, the tutor will educate Jasey and keep er up to whatever work she will do at school then when we come back from tours, and Jasey will be able to actually attend the local school. Are you fine with this Alex?”
Alex let it all sink in before he decided. “That would be amazing. Thanks Matt. Now the set list? I feel like something different instead of the usual.” Alex rubbed is chin in a childish manner.
Matt ran is head through his hair. “Okay, you guys talk over the songs you want to go with this tour, I am outta here.” Matt waved goodbye ten came around hugging everyone goodbye.
“See ya Mickey!” Jasey squealed as he hugged her tight. Everyone laughed at how Jasey already knew of Matt’s Mickey Mouse addiction.
After everyone but Zack, Alex, Jack, Ryan and Jasey left, the guys sat down in the living room with a notebook and pen. Jasey ran over to Ryan and sat in his lap. “Hey Uncle Ry, you’re my seat now.”
Jasey stuck out her tongue. “Well missy, in that case I shall be a seat that tickles my owner.” Within seconds Jasey was on the ground with Ryan sitting on her stomach as he tickled her sides all the while laughing evilly.
Alex decided then he would speak up. “Ryan, get off of Jasey and let’s figure out a new set list, I think Jasey should pick the first song.” Alex walked over to where Jasey lay as he spoke and picked her up. E ten sat on the lounge and looked expectantly at Jasey.
“Well, you should start with ‘That Girl’.” Jasey smiled as Alex wrote it down.
“Okay then we should move into ‘Damned if I do ya’.” Ryan suggested. Alex looked at Zack who ten agreed. “Wait how many songs?”
Jack spoke up then, “How about our usual set list but we add a couple of other songs in here and there?” Jack smiled at his friends.
“Yea, I like that, we keep it similar so we don’t have to learn a new list, it will be easier and you can just introduce a song to the crowd and we can go with it.” Zack picked up the notebook and started writing out the usual list but left a couple of gaps here and there. The list now looks like:
1.Lost in Stereo
2.Damned if I Do Ya (Damned if I Don’t)
3.Coffee Shop Soundtrack
4.Somewhere in Neverland
5.Six Feet Under the Stars
6.For Baltimore
7.Heroes

9.If these Sheets were States
10.Outlines
11.Time-Bomb

Encore
18.The Reckless and the Brave (So Long and Thank you for the Booze Intro)
19.Weightless
20.American Idiot (cover)
21.Dear Maria, Count Me In
“Well, I think that is much easier, that way before the encore starts we can insert three songs here. What about ‘The Beach’, ‘Do You Want Me (Dead)’ and, ‘Come One Come All’?” Alex looked at the list as he spoke.
Jack nodded, “Yeah and maybe we can call in some of our band friends that are on tour where we will be and ask them to help you sing some songs. And get in a couple extra dick jokes.” Jack laughed.
“Daddy?” Jasey tugged on Alex’s shirt. “Can you maybe play ‘Lullabies’? I like that song and I know everyone will love to hear it.” Jasey smiled at Alex.
Everyone looked at Alex waiting for an answer. Alex thought thoroughly about this decision before answering. “How about I try for the first concert then if I am fine I continue it ok.” Every one smiled at the thought that Alex may finally be ready to perform this song live.
“Okay let’s look at the set list.” Zack wrote the last few songs down then showed the rest of the guys.

After finally agreeing on the Set List, everyone left Alex and Jasey’s house to let the two pack and get ready to leave for tour in two days. Alex walked Jasey up to her room to see what clothes she would take on tour. “Ok Jay, let’s see what you have here, then we can pack my bags and then set up your room.”
Alex smiled at Jasey as he picked up jeans, tracksuit pants and shorts out for Jasey. He then reached in her boxes and pulled out all her tops. Every top she owned, apart from a few, had something to do with All Time Low on them. “Mummy really likes you guys and I do to so Mummy made me these shirts.” Jasey smiled as she picked out her favorites’ and gave them to Alex to pack away.
After Alex finished packing both his and Jasey’s bags e walked back into Jasey’s room and started to unpack everything. Within three hours of starting Alex had finished unpacking Jasey’s room. Her walls were a light sky blue colour. On one wall she had a couple band posters, all of which were All Time Low and ensured Alex was either alone or obviously the lead singer. Her bed was located on the left side of the room; her bed sheets had the Ice Age characters on it as well as the title. Beside her bed was a white bedside table, on it were two photos, one was of Alex and Sunday the day before she left Alex. Sunday had written something on the photo, as Alex looked at the writing he saw what it said. ‘Baby, I love you with all my heart, see you soon. X’. Alex looked at the photo next to it, there was a photo of Jasey and Sunday on her fourth birthday, Jasey was smiling a big toothy smile and hat a blue party hat on and cake all over er face. Sunday had black hair in this photo. She had on a pair of black rimmed glasses and didn’t look too healthy. On the opposite wall sat a big white dresser. All of Jasey’s clothes fit into it well and on top she had a lamp and a couple of toys.
Alex picked up the photo of himself and Sunday, “Oh how I wish you were here, just so I could see you one more time.”
Isobel spoke up with a question many didn’t know about quite yet. “Alex, who is her mother and where is she?” Alex noticed Jasey’s smile turned into a frown at the mention of Sunday.
Alex cleared his throat. “Jasey do you want to tell them or me?”
