It was the first day back at school for the year however it was Alec's first day at McKinley high. Ever. He was terrified. His hands were trembling and he was paler than usual. Isabelle, his sister, raced out of the car quicker than Alec would of thought possible, calling a sarcastic goodbye to their mother over her shoulder. She waltzed into the school building confidently. Following suit his brother Jace climbed out saying a more kind goodbye to Maryse, and then it was Alec's turn. He smiled nervously at his mother and swung his long legs out of the car. He looked up at the school building looming in front of him and he gulped nervously. "Well, here we go." He muttered to himself and made his way up to the doors of the school complex. He glanced behind him hopefully, however his mother had already sped off in their car to drop off his younger brother, Max, to elementary school. Alec sighed and faced the front doors again and made his way inside the huge building. He glanced at the piece of paper in his hand that read a locker number and combination and a map. He ran a pale hand through his raven black hair and continued walking, following his map until he found the locker. Leaning up against the one next to it was a girl with long, silky blonde hair talking with another girl with glasses and gorgeous black hair - they were both pretty, but weren't his type. As Alec opened his locker he heard a snippet of the conversation, the girl with the blonde hair was saying something about how she had just broken up with a Magnus Bane, Magnus Bane? What type of a name was that anyway? He asked himself.
Magnus Bane however, was still in bed, oversleeping, as usual. His mother marched into his room and rolled her eyes before shaking him awake. "Magnus!" She exclaimed. She was in her nurse's uniform ready to get to the hospital and her hair was coming lose from its knot at the back of her head. "You're going to be late for School! Get up! What a way to start your first day back at school!" She screeched and left his room. Magnus sat up with some difficulty and ran a hand through his hair that was sticking up at odd spots, grumbling something about how he didn't need school anyway. He got out of bed regardless and shuffled towards the bathroom "Don't shower! Just get dressed!" He heard his mother scream from the top of the stairs, Magnus rolled his eyes and washed his face in the sink, he looked at his reflection and walked back into his bedroom. He made his way to his walk in wardrobe and pulled out one of his favourite outfits, black leather pants with a black t shirt and a blazer covered in metallic glitter, he slid on his outfit and walked back to the bathroom. Once in front of his large mirror he pulled towards him a straightener and multiple tubs of labelled makeup, once his hair was styled perfectly in spikes that had a faint metallic blue tint to them, he added some more sparkles to the black mass. He then opened up his pot of Kohl and begun to apply it around his eyes, accompanying it with his borderline gold eyeshadow and applied more sparkles to that before leaving his bathroom to lace up his favourite boots and swinging his backpack over his shoulder. He walked down the stairs taking them two at a time and made his way into the kitchen. His mother had set out a plate of toast and Magnus ate it quickly, sliding his wallet, keys and phone onto his bag he made a coffee and kissed his mother goodbye. "See you later mum, don't let anyone die." He said with a smirk, his mother slapped his arm. "Drive carefully and have a good day." She called as he walked out the front door with a final wave behind him. He slid into his 1970's Valiant that was a faded blue colour from many years of use with only one fresh paint job in the early nineties. He climbed into the drivers seat and put his coffee in the drink holder before backing out of his driveway and heading to school.
Alec was waking around the school, studying the map he had been given, studiously. He sighed as he ran into a rather familiar figure. His brother Jace was standing in front of him with his trademark grin. "Ten minutes here and you're already running into other students?" He asked raising his eyebrows, Alec raised his eyebrows and rolled his eyes. "I'm just looking for my home room." he said, Jace glanced over Alec's shoulder at his map. "Looks like we are in the same home room bro." He said with a small smile. Alec let out a sigh of relief, so he wasn't going to be all alone after all. Jace and Alec set off in search of the home room, getting lost more than a few times. They were finally heading in the right direction when Alec saw him. He was tall and had an array of black spikes on top of his head, he was holding a coffee mug and quite frankly was the best thing Alec had ever seen. His breath caught in his throat and the world seemed to stand still as the other boy's emerald green eyes that was somehow made even better with the most glorious collection of golden flecks through them - met his.
Magnus stared back at the boy with messy black hair and blue eyes. His breath hitched in his throat. He blinked as he walked past and turned back towards the front, away from the boy. He was cute, Magnus admitted to himself, but he wasn't ready to go chasing some boy down after what had happened with Camille - his now ex girlfriend who had just broken up with him before the end of summer. It wasn't a good way to end the summer. At all. He sighed and walked into his home room and skunked down into his usual seat next to Ragnor, his best friend, whom he'd met in home room and was in most classes with. Ragnor grinned at him. "Late start?" He asked and Magnus just shrugged in reply as the home room teacher marked their names off the roll. He heard his name called and raised his hand in reply. His mind was other places however. His mind was on that boy with the blue eyes.
