A/N: Welcome to my new fic. High School Never Ends is still going, that isn't finished, but I thought of this one and wanted to post it… Anyway, theres no smut right away, it's a gradual build, but hopefully worth it. I love you valued readers… Enjoy :)
Alec ran through the campus, already lost and looking for Jace, who decided that it would be a good idea to steal Ales phone and hide from him even though they both had no idea where anything was. But as he rounded a corner, he flew smack into someone.
"Jesus Christ! Look where you're going moron!"
Alec jerked back with wide eyes. "I'm sorry. Very sorry. That's my bad."
The boy before him was tall, lean and beautiful. With flawless caramel skin and swirling green eyes. Spiked dyed hair of blue and black and tight skinny jeans of bright red. Alecs gulped and clicked his tongue as the guy raised his eyebrows and smiled.
"Calm down, kid. I'm sorry for the crass words. Its been a rough few days and i retract them whole-heartedly. You a freshman? I don't think I've seen you before and I know i would never forget eyes of that magnificence."
Alec gasped and knew he was blushing. They guy smiled as Alec nodded and spoke tentatively.
"Yeah. And I'm lost. And i cant find my map. And also, that moron guy took my bloody phone. You haven't seen him have you? A bit shorter than me, tanned, blonde hair, golden eyes, narcissistic smile?"
The guy shook his head slowly. "No i haven't. Sorry. Although if someone stole your phone, you should report it."
Alec snorted. "No. It was only a joke. Ill get it back."
The boy raised an eyebrow and looked at him reproachfully.
Alec sighed and smiled. "He's my brother. And he does it all the time."
The guy nodded and made and Ahhh sound before smiling.
"So he just ran off with it through a place he doesn't know?"
Alec nodded.
They guy smirked. "No offence but your brother sounds like a douche."
Alec laughed. "None taken, my friend. Douche is actually a very mild way of describing him."
The guy laughed and was about to talk, when a voice filled the air.
"ALEC!"
Alec looked around, trying to find the source of the voice because there was no doubt that it was Jace. The boy beside him creased his eyebrows.
"Who's Alec?"
Alec looked at him. "I am. And that voice belongs to my dear brother."
He looked around exasperatedly before shouting.
"JACE! BRING BACK MY PHONE YOU INSOLENT SWINE!"
The boy next to him laughed and Alec sighed an apology. Then Jaces voice rang out again.
"ALEC! LOOK UP BROTHER!"
Alec sighed again and looked up, his breath catching in his throat. Because Jace was perched on the ledge of the roof, smiling down at him with Alecs phone raised above his head, laughing tauntingly. The guy beside him looked at him with raised eyebrows. Alec slumped his shoulder, growling a sigh before sweetly saying "Excuse me for a minute" and then running.
He flew towards the brick wall, almost smashing into it but jumping at the last minute to bounce off the wall and launch towards the metal pole that was holding up a light. He swung around it, momentum keeping him moving, as he swung around and let go, gripping on to the next one before climbing onto a window ledge. He looked up at Jace, who was still smiling down at him.
"If you want it, climb for it."
Alec sighed and began a Spiderman like crawl up the wall, using dips in the brickwork, window ledges, poles and anything he could reach to climb the wall. A few seconds later, he gripped the edge of the roof and swung his legs up with an expert flip, rolling to his feet in a fluid motion.
He and Jace stood before each other, breathing hard and smiling. Because this what they loved the most.
With a silent Go! they ran, Jace ahead of Alec, across the roof. Jumping over any loose tiles and bricks and flipping and summersaulting like ninjas. When they reached the edge of the roof, they didnt stop. Instead, they came together and in unison they threw themselves into the air, spinning in tight summersaults over the space between the buildings, over the space where below, the guy with the green eyes watched transfixed in breathless horror and amazement, as they landed solidly, rolling to their feet and continuing their game of chase.
They flipped and jumped and ran ninja style like free runners over the roofs of several parts of the campus until Jace jumped off, clinging to a flag pole and sliding to the ground, tauntingly waving Alecs phone in his hand. Alec sighed a laugh and caught site of the green eyed guys gaze. He was a few meters away from Jace and staring up at Alec with wondrous bemusement and something a little more thrilling. Alec smirked, liking the look on his face and wanting to show off to impress him. So he backed up a bit before running full pelt for the edge of the roof.
He launched himself into the air, diving headfirst with his arms outstretched until he gripped one of the cool poles, swinging around it complicatedly, flying between two of them outside some darkened windows. This slowed his fall enough to let go with a flourishing swing and summersault to the ground, landing crouched on his feet beside Jace, who had fallen when Alec had grabbed his shirt and pulled him to the ground. He was moaning as Alec stood up and pinched his phone from Jaces grasp and brushed off his jeans. Shrugging cheekily as he walked back to green eyes.
"Sorry about that." He said nonchalantly, with a small smile.
The guy just stared at him open mouthed. Alec put his finger to his chin and closed it, while smiling. The guys eyes locked on his and Alec lightly traced his jaw with a finger before pulling away.
"You wouldn't happen to know where dorm 221B is do you?" He said in a normal register as though the epic ninja-ism he just displayed was nothing.
The guy nodded and cleared his throat. "Yeah. Ill show you. But B block, that's the scholarship place."
Alec nodded. "Yeah. Me and my brother both got one. He got sports, football or something. And i got music."
The guy smiled, as they began to walk, leaving the muffled sound of Jace shouting for directions to someone on his own phone.
"Music? That's cool. I'm fashion. If that wasn't obvious." He said with a glittery wink. Alec giggled.
"I had a slight inclination."
The guy laughed and held out his hand. "I'm Magnus by the way."
Alec shook his hand gratefully. "Alec."
They smiled to each other and walked in a comfortable silence until Alec spoke again.
"So i take it that isn't your first year here?"
The guy nodded. "Sophomore year. You are a freshman."
Alec nodded. "Excellent deduction there Sherlock."
Magnus smirked. "Elementary, my dear Watson."
Alecs eyes widened. "Is it truly possible that the first person i ran into is a Sherlockian?" He asked in a bemused voice.
Magnus laughed. "Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever is left, no matter how improbable, must be true."
Alec could have died right there.
A superhot guy who was actually nice and could quote Sherlock?! That's the dream!
His insides were writhing and screaming, while in reality, he laughed along with his new acquaintance all the way to dorm 221B, the irony of which was appreciated by both of them.
When they got there, Alec opened the door to find a nice, spacious, albeit plain, dorm room with two beds. One for him and one for his roommate, Simon Lewis.
Magnus whistled. "This place is bigger than mine. But mine is a lot more colourful. Tell me you're gonna decorate cause its too depressing in here. It feels so... Clinical and clean. Its unnerving. It has no personality at all."
Alec smiled and pulled out his phone, setting it on the bed. There was a moment of silence before the light intro of The Starting Line's Best Of Me, filled the air. Magnus smiled and nodded.
"Good song."
Alec smiled and sat on the floor, grabbing the bags from under his bed. Magnus' brow furrowed.
"You're bags are here already?"
Alec nodded. "Yeah. My parents had mine and Jaces stuff bought here yesterday. We were going to do it but we had something else to do." He replied sombrely.
Magnus thought this was weird because the college never let people come in before freshers week to bring all their stuff. But he said nothing because something in Alecs tone told him that there was more to the story.
As Alec was looking down, but Magnus could still see his face, Magnus took out his phone and snapped a picture of him. Purely because the boy was mesmerising. With his flawless pale skin and striking blue eyes. He was truly a spectacle to behold.
As Alec stood up, Magnus slipped his phone away and smiled. Alec clicked his tongue awkwardly.
"Thanks for helping me."
"No problem. It was my pleasure."
"I have to go find Jace now."
"Aww. But i wanted to get to know you."
"Another time."
"How do i know i can trust you?"
"You have my word."
There was a moment of silence that was full of tension between them, until they laughed a little and Magnus shook his hand in farewell.
Once he left the room, Alec dropped to his bed, knowing that his dreams would be plagued with green eyes every night.
Magnus left Alecs room smiling and whistling off hey, knowing that those blue eyes would be in his mind and vision for a long time.
