"Hello everyone! It's been a while since I last vlogged. Life has been hectic, but good nonetheless. So, for the past week I've been trying to organize my apartment. I'll be moving soon, as many of you have heard from Twitter, and packing is not an easy task. I'm moving across the country! Seriously, from stormy NY to sunny LA…how crazy is that? Anyways, packing…my apartment…right. I've come to realize how much trash one keeps around. Like seriously! Why do you keep saving things that you will no longer use? I've found so many empty boxes and papers all around my place. There are even some things I didn't know I owned until now. It seriously is a pain. I think I'm throwing away more things than I'm taking with me! It's completely mental…but at least I'm almost done.
So this will be the last video from my place here in New York. I know, sad...but next week I'll be in a completely different place, which means new settings for my videos.
Some people on Twitter asked me why I was moving. To answer your question, I'm moving to LA to take care of my siblings. My sister Isabelle and my brothers Jace and Max live in LA. I'm starting college there in California, and it seemed right to go live with them once again. Should be fun, having all the family reunited… ha ha…ok maybe not.
So…I should go back to packing all my stuff. Sorry this is short and completely irrelevant. I just wanted you all to know what was happening 'round here…so yeah! Have a nice day. And remember, DON'T KEEP USELESS THINGS! Please! Do yourself a favor and throw away all those things you know you'll never need again. You will be saving yourself time and making some good to the world.
See you guys next time in LA!"
Magnus sighed, closing his laptop and looking around his room. That was the newest video by youtuber Alexander Lightwood, best known by his YouTube channel 'AngelOnTheLine'. Magnus didn't quite get it, but it worked so that was good enough.
Alexander Lightwood was a 19 year-old teenager who had just graduated from high school in New York. He was slightly tall with incredibly pale skin. His hair was jet black and his eyes were radiant blue. He was a youtuber who had started his channel at the beginning of his Junior year in high school and had escalated from there. He made the usual vlogs, some rants or discussions about things he saw in life that were unfair. He also made some really nice short films and a few parody videos now and then when his siblings visited. He did some Q&A and a few 'Truth or Dare' videos. Alec Lightwood did around everything on his channel, to say the least, and it had gained him some popularity around the internet.
Alec Lightwood was also Magnus Bane's savior. You see, Magnus Bane's life was far from easy. His life could be easily summarized with 'a living hell'. Abandoned by his own mother at a very young age, almost killed by his step-father, moving from foster house to foster house during most of his adolescence, and being teased and bullied at school for being gay (Bisexual actually, not no one seemed to count that one)…yeah, Magnus had it pretty rough. He had no family nor friends, no one he could talk to, no one to support him or help him…he was a lonely soul who preferred spending time reading Vogue magazines and designing clothes than spending time with other people.
So yeah, Magnus Bane had a hard life…but he didn't let that break him. He stood tall and showed everyone else he was better off without them. Of course, it hadn't always been like that. There had been a time where Magnus considered denying himself to fit in with the crowd…or better yet, just give everything up. But he never came around to it…in fact, when he had made up his mind to take his own life he came across a YouTube video. It was a really short video of a teenager with black hair and blue eyes talking to the camera…but what had caught Magnus's attention was the title of the video. "DON'T DO IT!"…and that video had saved him from doing the worst mistake he could have made. He, in fact, didn't do it and it was all because of that video.
"I know this is really random…but I came across this today and I just had to make a video about it…I want to make this video about suicide awareness…and not just some crappy thing with comments that are supposed to be encouraged about how life will get better and how you still have so much to live…because I know those are incredibly overrated and people don't listen to that anymore…believe me, I know.
So, actually, I want you all to think about it for a moment. Suicide…and don't tell me you hadn't thought about it. If you haven't, great! Good for you! But I know most of you had thought about taking your own life at some point…I know I have, and I'm not proud about it…So if you've ever thought about it or are thinking about it…Don't do it? Over thinking will destroy you. Things aren't as hard as you make them seem in your mind. Yes, life is pretty rough and some people don't deserve what they get…but is suicide really the answer? Think about it! Suicide is a permanent answer to a temporary problem.
So…if to whoever is listening to this…Don't do it!"
That video had been the answer. That video had stopped Magnus from taking his own life, and since then Magnus had been watching all of Alec Lightwood's videos. He loved them. The blue-eyed teenager made him laugh and consider things and see life in a completely new way. Alec Lightwood had saved his life and continued to do it…Alec Lightwood was in fact an Angel on the line…he was Magnus's angel.
And now he was moving to Los Angeles. He was going to be living in the same state as him…He would probably be living far away from Magnus and he had no chances of actually meeting him. Magnus didn't know Alec siblings, hadn't heard about them, so it probably meant they didn't even live near him. But still…Alec would be closer than he had even been. Alec would be living in Los Angeles. What were the chances of Magnus actually meeting him? Close to none…but they still were chances! Maybe the odds were on Magnus's favor. Maybe he would get to meet Alec one day…
Magnus knew this obsession with a man on the internet was not sane. Far from it…it was weird and creepy and incredibly sad. But Magnus needed to let Alec Lightwood know how thankful he was for saving his life…and maybe one day he would be able to do it. But until then, he could only hope.
"Magnus!" he heard his foster mother calling from downstairs "Is time to go to school! You're going to be late!"
"Coming!" He called back.
He got up from his bed with a huge sigh. He moved to grab his bag from the floor and then went downstairs and towards the front door of the house where he lived.
"Magnus, hold on!" He heard his foster mother – Karen – calling behind him "You haven't eaten anything!"
"I'm not hungry" Magnus shrugged
"You're never hungry" He heard Karen sigh "You should at least get some fruit or something…you know it's not good to skip breakfast"
"I'm not hungry" Magnus repeated with a roll of his eyes "Don't worry about me Karen"
"Alright then" Karen sighed "Have fun at school…and be careful!"
"Will do" Magnus murmured before walking out of the house.
He gave a huge sigh as he stopped his car outside of the school. It was just another day being tormented in this hell hole. He braced himself before stepping out of his car and walking towards the school, ready for whatever was to come.
Well hello there! :D I'm back...after a really short time...haha!
Anyways, I've been coming with this idea for a long time now. I've changed it a few times...but I'm happy with what I've come up with and I couldn't wait any longer.
So...this is my new story! :D It is different from 'Prestigious', but hopefully just as good (or better)...I've decided to treat this story with different themes than my last story. I'm just trying to talk about stuff that's happening in real life...maybe my story more human, I guess...so this is just the begining, but hopefully I'll be able to develop it and make it a good one :) Just give it a chance, yeah?
So...uh...yeah! :D Hope you like it!
Please leave your reviews below...I'm not updating unless I get some haha! :D So yeah...review if you want more... Also favorite and follow! And check out my other stories :)
Thank you all!
