Chapter 25 - 27•Fear [1]

We start off by having everyone commenting on their fears.

-Mitchell and Cameron-

They were seen sitting in a pair of chairs with Lily bouncing on Cameron thigh

Mitchell:"What am I most afraid of? Hmm. Let's see."

-Alex and Will-

Sitting at the dinner table, they looked like old couples as they held hands on the dinner table

Alex:"Global warming...Losing Will, losing to Will and getting a "B."

Will:"Losing Alex and dying alone…"

The camera turns to the side to reveal Claire there having a genuine smile when she saw Alex and Will looking at each other with the warmest eyes

-Claire and Phil-

Now they were at the living room sofa as they laid back with Phil having one of his legs rest on his other knee

Claire:"The phone ringing in the middle of the night."

Phil:"That I'm too much of a perfectionist."

Claire:"Honey, this isn't a job interview."

Phil:"Oh, man.Job interviews."

Jay:"Nothing."

Gloria:"Yeah, right.What about the pigeons?"

Jay:"Oh, I don't like them.They're shifty."

-Mitchell and Cameron-

Cameron:"Losing Mitchell."

Mitchell:"Oh!…Hotel bedspreads."

Haley:"Never getting my driver's license.Or getting one and the picture sucks."

-Manny-

Manny:"Dying alone."

-Merlyn and Lucy-

Lucy:"Losing my baby boy"

Merlyn:"Losing my work…and my family"

With that out of the way, A beautiful morning was already here as everyone was getting ready for the day. But first we have our first scene at the Zoloman house as Will just finished his morning routine at getting up at 6 am on the dot and then doing some training for basketball while doing his exercise for one hour.

Considering school starts at eight, he still had an hour before school starting.

He just finished dressing up for school as he grabbed his phone and texted his good morning to Alex who replied with the same thing.

Alex was getting better at texting as she now used emojis because at first when Will got her a new phone for her Christmas present, it was funny knowing how she didn't know due to her not having many contacts or actually texting anyone.

Like how Haley put it, it was sad.

Will sent her some Hearts as Alex texted back but after sending that, she didn't continue to send anything, indicating that her mom told her to get off of it.

He arrived down stairs with his backpack when he noticed no one there as some maids greeted him and went off as he arrived at the dinning table to see his breakfast there, hot.

His phone dinged, and after checking it, he now knew where his parents were. In New York City, overseeing some problems in headquarters, something about chemical spills and problems about their products.

Will shrugged as his parents were actually trying to spend more time with him or at least be there.

But while Will was getting ready for school In his soundless house,the Dunphy house was as always, loud when Haley had her drivers test today.

Claire was in the kitchen with Luke who was sitting down eating his cereal while Haley was freaking out and overreacting.

Claire:"Oh, Haley, sweetie,did you find your shoes?"

Haley:"Mom, please, not today."

Claire:"I just wanted to know if you found your shoes."

Haley:"Why are you hounding me? I'm freaking out right now."

Claire:"You need to relax.It's just a driver's test."

Haley:"It's my third driver's test,and if I fail again,I have to wait six months to retake it.That's six more months of you driving me everywhere."

She was in the kitchen with her mom as she had her book bag on the chair while looking at Claire, who remembered what that feels like every.single.time

*Flashback*

Claire was in her minivan with Haley and her friend in the back as she was driving them to the shopping mall with Claire hearing there conversation

Haley:"Then I'm, like, "There's no way I'm wearing that." And she was, like-"

Claire:"Like."

Haley:"Well, if you don't wear it, then you can't play."And then I was, like,"That's fine by me."

Claire:"Honey, like."

Haley:"And then she was, like,"Well, if you don't play-"

Claire:"Like! Like!"

Haley:"Mom!"

Claire:"Stop! Stop saying "like"all the time.

Haley:"You'reembarrassingme!Stop it!"

Claire:"Likelikelikelike"

Haley:"AAH!"

They were screaming over eachother with Haley friend slowly sliding down, hearing them was like her eardrum could burst anytime

*Flashback end*

Claire:"Hmm."

She nodded slowly while having a tight lipped smile and that's when Alex came in with a jacket dangling over her fingers.

Alex:"Haley. Found your jacket."

Haley:"Why is everyone on me?God!"

Claire:"Ignore her. She can't focus on two things at once."

Alex:"Always a good quality in a driver."

Claire:"Sweetie, we need to get you some shoes for the dance tonight."

Alex:"No, we don't.I'm not going."

Claire:"What are you talking about?Why would you not be going to the dance?"

Alex took a deep breath as she sat down on a chair with Claire leaning over the counter, waiting for her response

Alex:"Well for one, Will hasn't asked me yet and two…."

—-Commentary——

Alex:"I'm not afraid or embarrassed for people to see me with Will, but I am when knowing I'm his girlfriend. Although he has told me countless times, it's still out there you know…the talks and the stares…."

A ding sounded from her pockets as she took out her phone and read the text message with a smile and showed it to the camera

Alex:"Aww, look what is says "My boyfriend powers activated and I sensed you downing yourself. So here…."

She read it out loud as a gif meme of a lion cuddled a kitten and switched to multiple feline lions watching the male one with the caption "Shh, don't listen to them. They're just jealous"

Alex giggled out and smiled while her mouth turned to 'O' but she covered it with her hand as her eyes were glossy

——Commentary end——

Claire:"Honey, boys love it when they surprise you when they think you think that you feel like they forgotten"

Alex:"Huh?"

Claire:"The point is that Will is going to ask you but maybe give him some time, the day just started right?"

Alex thought about it and nodded with a smile as she stood up and walked off with Phil coming in and talking with an Australian Accent

Phil:"Ready to go down under, mate?"

Luke:"Yes.

Claire:"Ooo,What are you doing?"

Together:"Treasure hunting."

Claire:"Wow."

——Commentary——

Phil was sitting down on his couch for his regular "interview"

Phil:"A few days ago, the cable guy was under the house.When he was leaving,he said to Haley,"Wow. That's quite a collection you've got down there." Here's the thing. We have no idea what he's talking about.All week, Luke and I have been getting more and more excited about what it could be."

——Commentary end——

It took about a week of them thinking about it nonstop before Claire told them to just go and check it. And that's what they were going to do right after school when Luke comes back.

After arriving in her home room class, Alex quickly began to do the work that was on the assignment board. She got there fairly early and helped out the teacher a little bit as she finally sat down and looked up to see Lauren, one of Mackenzie's friends.

She sat down behind her as got on her phone and started to text. Good thing some of the other students got there before her other friends got there so it was relatively quiet.

Alex was doing some notes as she looked up once again hearing footsteps and smiled when she saw Will coming, right before the bell rang with his usual smile and positive energy.

Will:"Hey"

Alex:"Hey you."

They whispered as Will sat down and took out his notebook and pen and started to write away while talking to Alex

Alex:"So…soemthing pretty big is coming up tonight"

Will:"Oh yeah? What is it?"

Alex:"It's pretty important for us, so can you maybe think about it for a second?"

Will:"Oh…um, oh yeah! I have a question"

Alex face brightened and nodded while having both of her hands on her desk.

Will:"Why are we whispering?"

She scrunched up her nose and banged it on her hand as she huffed out.

Will:"What? I'm confused? There isn't anything major going on"

Alex:"Yeah your right"

Will:"Wait are you mad?"

Alex:"No"

Will:"Your lying"

Alex:"What? No I'm not"

Will:"Uh yes you are, Alex your my girlfriend and as my girlfriend I have to pay you attention, meaning, I know your mad when you scrunch up your nose or when you start to repeatedly fix your glasses"

She was left speechless and crossed her arms as she slowly slipped down her seat

Will:"Alex"

Alex:"It's just-"

Mrs.Passwater:"Okay class, hope you written your answers as were about to go over them."

Alex:"Never-mind"

Will shook his head and looked away as he had a grin on his face. Truthfully told, he knew why she was mad. It was obviously about the school dance tonight and that he hasn't asked her yet but he didn't know why but he wanted to see her mad Alex and tease her

Truly something evil to do. Play with a girl feelings.

Anyways, the day went by with Alex partially ignoring him, the reason why was simple. She had no one to talk to. So when lunch came around, Will sat in front of Alex who smiled but suppressed with a frown.

Will:"Aw, look at my angry chihuahua"

Alex:"Not funny"

Will:"Okay, I'm sorry and I think I know why your mad"

Alex:"…go on"

Alex moved her body to face Will who was in front of her as she started to eat her apple slices.

Will:"Well I think your mad because I'm spending this afternoon with your dad to explore your house…well underground"

Alex had an 'O' face and simply crushed her apple slice in her hands as the juice started to wet her scarf.

Ale:"…Are you kidding me…"

—-Commentary——

Will was seen sitting on a massive white couch with black edging.

Will:"I know I know, I'm probably a bad person doing this to her but I honestly wanna surprise her, make her think I dont care and then BOOM! Give her a heartfelt speech about why I love her and that will solidify us even more…at least I hope I think"

Lucy was walking by but quickly sat down beside him and started caress his face but she immediately pulled his ear

Lucy:"If you play with a girl's feeling, especially to that sweet, wonderful Alex, then I'll make sure you'll be exactly like your father who almost cheated on me"

Will:"Ow ow…um, Alive?"

Lucy:"Well…your to young, I'll tell you when your older."

Will:"And when do you call Alex wonderful?"

Lucy:"Oh hasn't she told you? We're Facebook friends!"

She smiled as Will looked at the camera and shook his head

—-Commentary ends——

She said in a low voice as she looked at Will who had a grin. When Will tried to grab her hand from under the table, Alex ignored him and looked up to see the remaining 4 people look at them as they had nothing better to do.

Lauren, Winn, and Avery were serving silent lunch due to some drama while Will basketball friends weren't in his class so the people sitting there were randoms to Will and Alex.

School went by like that. Will still acting dumb with Alex still thinking he forgot. Now you may wonder why Will is doing this, the answer is because he wants to surprise her. Alex had no idea that what her mom said in the morning was true.

Luke was the first to arrive due to him getting out early and then it was Alex with Will who tagged along to help Phil and Luke see the treasure that they think is under their house.

Will was there basically because Phil wondered if it was anything valuable then the most safest and best way to trade it for money was through someone like Will, more exactly, Mr.Zoloman.

Phil thought he could sell it to some rich folks for some quick and heavy cash.

(AN:This will be a short episode, only 2 chapters so expect part 2(the finale of this episode) by Wednesday and a double upload by Friday😁you guys at least deserved this
