Chapter 1: Bane

Alec sighed. He hated moving. It meant that everything that was once familiar – would be taken away from him. The neighborhood he had grown accustomed to. His friends, or rather friend, would be taken away from him. Besides his sister Izzy, Alec really only had one friend.

Jace was the one person on earth, outside of his family, who actually noticed his existence. He seemed to be the only non-homophobic kid at his school. If Alec was being honest with himself, he didn't care much for popularity. He had one thing he did care about though, and he was determined that at this new school, no one was going to find out about it.

Isabelle was notorious for knowing everything that was worth talking about. It was no surprise, when she told him she had dug out the dirt on their new school. When Alec had asked how all this information had even come into her grasp, she gave him a half-smile – looking up from beneath her lashes and muttering, "I have my sources."

Knowing Izzy, one wouldn't want to know what those sources were.

The school was a 'dog eat dog world'. The school's populace strived on competition and rivalry – which finalized Alec's decision on making sure no one, discovered his sexual orientation. The teachers were stern, hard as nails, and didn't let anyone get away with anything. There was one boy though. Everyone called him Bane.

According to Isabelle, a rumor stated that he had once dated this girl. When he found out she had cheated on him, he made it his mission to destroy her public reputation. Until that time, she was reigned 'Queen Bee' and second in command. However, she now stood at the bottom of the school's social rank. The bane of my existence, no doubt, Alec thought. It would seem most wise to stay away from Bane, at all costs.

Alec glanced left and right self-consciously, before taking a deep breath and entering through the door of his first period class. His eyes swept the classroom for a place to sit, far from the teacher, and anyone else for that matter. He settled for a seat in the back, keeping his gaze downcast, yet still stealing quick peaks at the students around him.

A group of girls and guys alike huddled together in deep conversation, waiting for the bell to signal the start of class. He desperately hoped to go unnoticed. Though, it would be foolish to think that no one would notice a new face in the classroom – especially if the teacher didn't give an embarrassing introduction. He heard a few girls giggle and chatter girlishly beside him. Alec leveled his gaze, and followed the subject of their conversation.

He was beautiful. A gracious amount of raven-black hair that was gelled into neat spikes around his head, blue highlights streaked through his hair and glitter – everywhere. His mouth stretched into a smile – the kind of smile that could steal the breath out of you. His skin was evenly tanned, with almond-shaped eyes that widened into slits. A black-colored liner accentuated the swirls of green, flecked with vibrant gold in his eyes. He looked like an impish angel that was kicked-out-of-heaven for being too good-looking.

Alec watched the boy whisper into the ear of another boy, before leaning in and kissing him full on the mouth. Alec's eyes widened and he quickly looked away, a dark flush tinting his cheeks. Everything about the impish angel screamed gay, but the fact that he kissed the boy in the broad of daylight, for everyone else to see was beyond Alec. He glanced around the classroom, but no one seemed to have noticed.

The first period bell rang and the class went by in a blur. Alec could barely concentrate on the pencil and paper before him. He didn't want to be noticed, yet his mind kept pondering on the beautiful boy with the green-gold eyes. He couldn't help wanting the boy to look his way.

But what if he did, a voice in his head said. Why should he care for you? He obviously has a boyfriend.

Alec stood from his seat, gathered his blank notes and left the classroom. Izzy stood at the door with an expectant expression. "Where's Bane? Have you seen him yet?"

"Oh." Alec flushed. He wasn't really looking for Bane or paying enough attention to figure out who he was. The impish angel was all that flooded through his mind. Quickly he responded, "Um, no I haven't."

Izzy arched one elegant eyebrow. "Huh. Alright, then. I could have sworn he was in this class, though. "

The rest of Alec's classes were much like the first. An incessant blur, fully occupied with nonsensical thoughts that deferred Alec's concentration. The only difference was that, in his other classes, Alec couldn't spot a head of gelled spikes and glitter.

The lunch bell rang, and Alec heaved his textbooks into a locker before exiting the school building. He searched the courtyard for a place to sit, when his eyes rested on raven spikes, contrasting a neon outfit.

"That boy over there…The one you're drooling over – that's Bane," came Izzy's voice from behind him.

Alec blinked. "That's Bane?" he verified, more to himself than her. "But…But he's gay."

"Alec," Isabelle said shaking her head, "You can't be homophobic, when you yourself, are in fact, also gay."

Alec rolled his eyes and turned to her. "I mean, guys…guys like me. Well, we're supposed to get teased and bullied and-"

"Alec, it's too early in the week for all this teenage angst!"

"Okay. Fine, but openly gay teens do not rule the school." He paused. "How is it even possible anyway?"

Isabelle shrugged. "Probably his charm and damn good looks." A wicked glint gleamed across her eyes. "I mean. Have you not seen him? A few guys can pull off the whole makeup thing without looking drag, but on him. I wouldn't be surprise if the new definition of sexy was Bane."

Alec listened to the last words out of his sister's mouth, and found himself flushing red again. He glanced at the table Bane sat at. He bit down on his lower lip and looked to his left to find Izzy settling onto a wooden bench. He followed, his gaze coming back up to spot the same boy whispering into Bane's ear. Bane's eyes flicked towards the dark-haired siblings.

Alec averted his gaze and met Izzy's. Isabelle gave a closed-lipped smile, her eyes anxiously awaiting trouble. Bane was walking towards them.
