Summary: The 100 times Magnus Bane met Alexander Lightwood. Mainly AU with a couple of other canon pairings.
The first time Magnus Bane met Alexander Lightwood, the latter was trying to shut his brother up.
It wasn't the first time that Magnus Bane had clashed with Jace Herondale at school. Usually, they started with the exchanging of snarky comments before blows flew or sometimes, they just walked away from each other while throwing curses at the other over their shoulders.
"…really sorry, he won't do it again I swear!"
But today, all thoughts of picking a fight with Goldilocks flew out of his head as he watched Jace struggle in the blue-eyed beauty's arms before being dragged away.
Maybe he should pick more fights, if it was just to see that pretty face again.

The second time Magnus Bane met Alexander Lightwood, was because Chairman was depressed.
"Are you sure your brother can help, Isabelle?" Isabelle Lightwood flicked her hair over her shoulder and glared at her sparkly friend.
"Don't underestimate my brother, Magnus. If he can handle that PMS-ed of a Ninetales over there," she jerked her thumb at where Ninetales was giving them a wilting look, "your Espeon is a piece of cake."
"Izzy?"
To which after that, Magnus never second-guessed Isabelle Lightwood again as he watched Chairman Meow wriggle happily in Alec's arms.
What he wouldn't do to be in those arms, but first, he really wanted to swipe that grin off Isabelle's face.

The third time Magnus Bane met Alexander Lightwood, he had almost broken his fingers.
It figured that doing your research last minute was no joke. Granted, looks came before anything else, but right now Magnus could care less about how crazy he looked right now.
He arrived in time as he saw the lights turn off, and restraining the urge to scream 'NO' he made a mad dash for the door, just in time as the librarian came out and made to lock the door…and he hissed in pain as the door jammed between his fingers.
"Oh my god, I'm so sorry!" words died as soon as blue eyes, looking terrified behind those glasses, stared back up at him, blushing as Magnus stared intently at him. "Do…do you need any help?"
Magnus smirked, earning him more blushing and mumbles. "I accept your apology about my wonderful fingers, but first, I would really like your gorgeous self on helping me find a book, and maybe your number later."

The fourth time Magnus Bane met Alexander Lightwood, their art class was looking for a model.
"An androgynous model, to be exact." The class groaned in unison. Jocelyn Fairchild narrowed her eyes. "No complains now! You can use the same model, but I expect different styles of art. This assignment is due by the next lesson, and I expect to see something, or else."
There was an audible gulp as Jocelyn dismissed them.
"Your mother is a nightmare, I swear." Magnus complained to Clary much later during lunch. "How you deal with it on a daily basis is something I salute you on. That said…why can't we use my gorgeous self as the model and I can use yours…are you listening?"
"Huh?" Clary looked up from her phone. "Sorry did you say something?" She smiled sheepishly as Magnus gave her a deadpanned look. "I was texting someone, my bad. You were saying?"
"Texting the blonde idiot?" Magnus raised an eyebrow. "He hardly seems one to be a perfect androgynous model."
"He's not an idiot," Clary chastised, but she was smiling. "No, I was asking his brother. He'll be absolutely perfect as a model!" Clary was almost jumping in her seat with excitement that even Magnus couldn't resist a smile. "He's so pretty for a male, and those blue eyes…" she looked dreamy for a moment. "No amount of blue could replicate those blues."
"So…are you going to meet him?" Magnus asked questioningly, curiosity perked as soon as he heard 'blue eyes'. Clary nodded in excitement. "He's meeting me here! If you want to, we can share him as a model? How about it?"
Magnus made to answer, but a soft 'Clary?' caused them both to look up, and Magnus felt his jaw drop.
This, was going to be hell of an art submission.

The fifth time Magnus Bane met Alexander Lightwood, he was absolutely offended.
Because for starters, no one forgot Magnus Bane. No one!
"I can almost hear your teeth grinding to dust," Camille poked him as she chewed her food lazily. "What happened to your blue-eyed angel?"
"I went back to the store to see him again, and you know what?" he was greeted with blank stares. "He forgot about me! Forgot me. No one forgets about Magnus Bane!" he was almost shrieking now.
"Well, speak of the devil, your blue-eyed beauty is coming over now." Ragnor interrupted. Magnus swiveled his head around, despite being determined to be angry, until he saw the crestfallen look on the boy's face as they came closer.
"Uhm…Magnus, right?" Yeap, he couldn't get angry with that tone of voice. "I'm…sorry about yesterday. I'm really bad with names, but I remember faces, and…I'm sorry?"
Ignoring the snickers in the background that were his friends, he smirked at the boy, inciting a blush. "Well then, Alexander," he slipped his fingers under the boy's chin, "I suggest that you remember this face very well then, cause you'll be seeing a lot of me around."

The sixth time Magnus Bane met Alexander Lightwood, the latter's parents were in the middle of divorce.
"Take care of the son for me, Magnus." Mr Bane sighed to his son as he shut the door. Magnus groaned. He had been planning to hang with Catarina and the others, and now his plan had gone down the drain. Pulling out his phone as he walked over to the waiting room, he texted the group.
Magnificent Bane: To my gay clique, arcade is off today.
Vampy Cammie: WHAT!? WHYYYYY? _
Magnificent Bane: I need to babysit my dad's client kid. His parents are divorcing and he isn't taking it well.
Clockwork Tessa: That's sad. How old is he? Well, nevermind then! Take care of him! =)
Magnificent Bane: Younger than us? Around 12?
IHateDucks: Magnus? Take care of the kid? If the poor kid doesn't drown in glitter first it's a miracle.
He was in the midst of typing a snarky reply back to Will when soft sobbing caught his ears, and he opened the door, only for something to fly into his chest, and he looked down awkwardly to a nest of black hair.
"Uhm…are you okay?" teary blue eyes looked up at him, and Magnus felt his breath catch for a moment. He didn't know why, but then he wrapped his arms around the smaller boy. "It's okay. You can cry on me."
And he did as Magnus held him tight.

The seventh time Magnus Bane met Alexander Lightwood, was because apparently, he had taken Goldilocks's phone by accident.
Alec: Jace? I need the car keys, where are you?
Jace: Hello Alec, this isn't Jace.
Alec: Jace, stop joking. I really need the keys! Need to pick up Max or Mom will have my head!
Jace: No really, I accidentally swapped phones with Goldilocks and I'm looking for him as well. This is Bane.
Alec: …do you like…want to meet or something because I found Jace and well…I can pick his phone up from you…? And Bane, as in Magnus Bane?
Jace: Yes, darling. Glad to see you know of my wonderful self at least. I'll see you at the carpark then? I'm the one-
Alec: In the carpark? The glittery car is yours right?
Magnus raised his eyebrow. Well at least this Alec person knew who he was. It seemed like Goldilocks had a bigger mouth as much as he had a big ego.
"Magnus? Magnus Bane?" he turned his head to see the most stunning thing ever, with flushed cheeks and windswept hair…not to mention those gorgeous blues even as his clothing looked…horrible, running towards him.
Maybe for once, Goldilocks had done something good.

The eighth time Magnus Bane met Alexander Lightwood, his charge had been hurting himself.
He watched a drop of blood trickle down that pale skin.
That pale skin that he would have given anything to touch.
He watched the knife drag across that skin, cutting deeper, where it was close to where the arteries lay.
He watched his charge cry as he sat in the bathtub, red staining the clear water, and all he could do was watch.
For angels were not allowed to interfere in the life of their charges, much less fall in love, only watch them.
If only, if only…if only he could embrace the boy and whisper, "I've always been here."

The ninth time Magnus Bane met Alexander Lightwood, the latter was crying.
He wondered why the ceiling was so dull. So white…it was almost sickly.
And then he wondered why he was in a room that looked like a hospital…switch that, he was in a hospital room.
"Magnus?" he turned his head, and by his side, sleepy blue eyes full of happiness and relief stared at him. "You're awake?"
"Looks pretty obvious, darling." Magnus wondered why his heart was fluttering madly, and he felt like…he had to ask. "But darling…have I met you before?"
Later, as a red- haired girl and-black haired girl sat down beside him, the golden- hair guy supporting blue eyes out, he looked at them and asked.
"Why…does it hurt when he cried?"

The tenth time Magnus Bane met Alexander Lightwood, he had stolen his first kiss.
Granted, it had been an accident.
Magnus Bane was not one to walk down hallways without swinging his hips, and Alexander Lightwood was not one to walk without falling down at least once.
And when these two collide in a flurry of limbs after said Lightwood tripped over his own feet, Magnus couldn't resist a smirk as blue eyes stared back at him in horror while their lips were still joined.
When his crush had finally scrambled to his feet stammering apologies and face as red as a tomato, Magnus made sure to make a show of running his thumb over his lips, grinning as the boy couldn't get any more redder than he already was.
"Pumpkin, really, if you really liked me that much as I like you, you should have said something earlier, not that I'm complaining about how forward you are, nor of how that you just gave me your first kiss."
A/N: I'm really supposed to be writing my other stories…but I couldn't get them out because this one was taking up my brain space too much. xDD if you have any suggestions of how Magnus met Alec, feel free to suggest and I'll add them in! Meanwhile, hope you enjoyed the story and…pleaseeeee reviewwwwwwwww~~~~
