A/N: Alright, first story. So this story is basically of Alec starting puberty too soon. He grows up hating how he looks, and is as well over weight, one of the things he hates. This chapter will be short (sorry, for those who will like it.) but I just wanted to show in a way an introduction :D. Hope you guys like it!
(I do not own The Mortal Instruments nor the characters, I do not own anything but the plot."

Alec looked around the play ground, taking a bite of his sandwich. It was lunch time and he had decided eat here. He was under a shade of a tree, sitting down under it. It was the furthest tree from the play ground. He was burly in sixth grade as he was already going through puberty. He had pimples all over his face, he wore small squared glasses that made him look as if he were squinting.

Not only that but he was well.. Overweight. He had noticed other kids were too but there was hardly any of them and they could pull it off. They found clothing that suit them and some even looked "cute". He, on the other hand couldn't make it work. His head was too small, his eye brows were too bushy and his eye lashes were too long. He even had ugly blue girl eyes. If that was possible. He hated puberty but he knew his over weight problem wasn't because of it. His teeth were as well crooked so he wore thick grey braces.

His mother had insisted that it'll get better soon, but he felt as if this was how he was going to stay forever. Apparently other kids felt the same way too. He had no friends and if anyone ever spoke to him it was because the teachers forced them too.

He sighed and looked down, putting his food back in his back pack, taking out a sketch book and a pencil. The only good thing was that he knew how to draw. So if there was a project the kids only tolerated him so that he could do the illustrations.

He let his hand with the pencil glide over the paper, drawing a simple sketch of a rose. He was about to continue to darken it and shade it when he heard the cracking of leaves in front of him. He looked up to see a lightly tanned boy there. The boy wore a pink shirt and yellow shorts. The boy was grinning at him, indicating that he also had braces on. His hair was completely shaven off. Yet the thing that catched his eyes were the other boys own eyes.

"Hi." The boy said.

Alec looked at him oddly, "Um.. Hi."

The boy smiled and sat down beside him, "I'm new, my names Magnus what about you?"

"Um..Alec.." Alec looked around to see if anyone was staring, "Is this a bet?"

Magnus looked at him oddly, "No? Why would me coming to you be a bet?" Alec looked at Magnus for a second. Magnus smiled again and spoke, "You looked lonely. Can we be friends or.."

Alec couldn't help but chuckle, causing Magnus to grin, "We both have braces." Magnus pointed out and then poked one of Alec's pimples, "I have pimples too. Mine are just small."

Alec smiled and looked over at Magnus, "I thought I was the only one."

Magnus grinned, "Puberty sucks. I think it's better to start now than later. We'll be hawt when we grow up!" Alec laughed, causing Magnus to laugh too, "So are we friends?"

Alec grinned, "Yeah, friends."

Suddenly the bell rang, signaling that lunch was over. "Damn." Magnus cursed. Alec smiled sheepishly at him and stood up along with Magnus. "Who do you have next?"

"I have art with Ms. Fray." He answered, "You?"

Magnus frowned and took out a note from his pocket, "I have…" His voice drifted off a bit as he read the paper, "Ooh."

Alec squinted at him, "What?"

Magnus grinned in return and grabbed Alec by the wrist, dragging him towards the buildings, "Wheres the art class?"

One Year Later

"Alec!" Magnus basically scram, "WHERE MY GLITTER TUBE?"

Alec chuckled and rolled his eyes, "Check your pockets."

Magnus frowned at him. Since last year his hair had grown, it was now a Faux Mohawk that was styled to the side. Other than that both of them hadn't changed, except the fact that Alec's hair was now long enough for him to have bangs. Magnus was starting to dicover a "passion" for glitter. Alec on the other hand had grown his own passion for drawing and painting.

Magnus took out a small tube of purple glitter and grinned, sitting in front of Alec. At the moment they were in Magnus's house in the front yard, since they both knew Alec's parent's were about to come and pick him up. "Can I please put glitter on you?"

Alec scrunched up his face, "No."

"Pllllleeaaassee I'll give you a dollar."

Alec chuckled, "Shut up. You know I don't like that."'

Magnus grinned and shrugged, "I'm going to start wearing NailPolish. You know I just put glitter on my hair.. maybe on my face too.."

Alec grinned, "Whatever you want."

Magnus frowned and leaned over to him, a serious look on his face, "Why do you not like glitter Alexander Lightwood?"

Alec squinted at him, "I just don't. Dammit Magnus."

Magnus frowned again, "You don't know what you're missing."

"I don't like glitter."

"But if you tried-"

"No."

"Fine," Magnus raised his hands up in a surrender motion, "So.. I got a flipphone."

Alec grinned and took out his own, "What's your number? We can call each other when I leave."

Magnus smiled and gave the other boy his own number. "Mine doesn't allow to send pictures or receive them. But I don't care I'm gonna use it to just talk."

Alec grinned and was about to respond when they heard a loud honk. Alec quickly stood up, Magnus mimicking his actions as Magnus leaned in for a hug. Alec gave him one in return, "I'll see you tomorrow at school."

Magnus grinned and nodded, "Bye Alec."

Alec smiled once more before heading towards the black car.

He was about to enter it when his mom peeked out her head and looked over at him, "Alec, honey."

Alec raised his eye brows at his mom, "Yeah?"

"Go tell Magnus goodbye."

Alec cocked and eye brow in confusion, "I did."

Maryse sighed, leaning back on the car seat, "We're moving tonight, I think it'll be better if you told your friend."
