Alec's POV:

"Do you want soda, juice, anything at all?" Maryse asks Magnus. He shakes his head.

"I'm fine. Thank you for the offer though." She gets up and goes to the kitchen. I'm is sitting next to him looking nervous.

"So.. Did you catch the game last night?" He burst out laughing.

"Alec we both know none of us watch sports. Like at all. But good try to ease the tension." I blush and looks around.

"Do you feel comfortable here? I mean.. Do you feel safe here?" I ask timidly.

"Alec I've lived with two horrible parents in a shabby house. This is probably the safest place I've ever been." He grabs my hand and look at me. I turn towards him.

"Okay. I was just wondering. So, you want to play a game?" I smile.

"Sure." He lets go of my hand and I walk over to my huge, and I do mean huge, TV. I put on a game and hand him a controller. "Um one problem Alec. I don't know how to use this." He states holding up the controller. I chuckle and scoots next to him.

"Okay this is the X- Box one controller. You push this to jump, these to shoot, and move this to move." I put my hand on his, moving it to show him how. He drops the control and just grab my hand. I blush but lean in.

"Alec your back! How was your tri-" Izzy yells walking into the living room. But stops short seeing me and Magnus. We both jumped a little when she popped in.

"Who's he?" She asks crossing her arms over her chest.

"Um Izzy this is Magnus. Magnus this is Isabelle, but we call her Izzy. He's my boyfriend and she's my sister." I explain. Izzy's harden expression drops.

"Oh your Alex's boyfriend. Cute." She walks over to us and sits down in between us. She turns over to Magnus. Eyeing him up and down. She starts touching his hair and works her way down. I stop her when she reached his bellybutton.

"Okay can you not molest my boyfriend?" She moves her hands away.

"Thank you." She looks at Magnus and pouts.

"Why do you have a hot boyfriend before me. It's not fair." She complains.

"First of all your only fifteen, you shouldn't be dating. Second of all you have had way more boyfriends before me."

"Well duh. Magnus is your first boyfriend. Of course I had some before you. But none as hot as him. His sense in fashion is amazing!" Magnus's eyes widen.

"I'm your first boyfriend?" He asks. I look away and nod. Jesus Izzy has a big mouth.

"Oh you didn't know? Well this is my que to leave. See you sometime soon I hope Mags. Bye."

"Actually Magnus is staying here for a while." I explain to her.

"What? Why?"

"Um.. personal reasons." I don't want her to think differently of him.

"Yeah right. You probably just want to have your boyfriend her for twenty four/seven company. So unfair. Mom if I get a boyfriend can live with me too!" She yells stomping in to the kitchen.

I turn towards Magnus, who has a smug expression on his face.

"So I'm your first boyfriend. I feel so honored." He scoots closer to me.

"Yeah well don't get too high and mighty. I bet you haven't dated that many people right?" I scoff waiting for his answer. He looks into the distance.

"Right?" I ask a little bit louder. He sighs and looks at me.

"You know growing up I didn't ever feel loved. S- So to feel loved I dated a lot. But I had a real reason to. It's not the best reason but it's my reason."

"How many?" I ask.

"Well who's to say how many-"

"How many?" I interrupt.

"About... Thirty?" My eyes widen.

"You've dated thirty people!" He nods.

"Don't you think that's a lot? Even if you had problems?" He narrows his eyes at me.

"Have you ever skipped meals because your parents only spend money on beers and drugs. Have you ever came home and instead of getting a hug from your parents you get a beating along with horrible words getting thrown at you?" Is shake my head.

"Yeah you haven't. Well me being called a worthless pathetic human who will never be loved really gets to your head. But it all stopped in sixth grade when a girl named Geny asked me out. It gave me hope, that not everything he said was true. So yeah I kept dating everyone who asked me out.

Males, females, basically anything that would give me the comfort I needed. So to answer your question yes I do think I dated to many people.

But it helped me stay sane so it really doesn't bother me too much. Only when I get judged for it." He responds while putting his hands over his chest. So like me right now. Way to get your boyfriend mad on his first day here Alec.

"Look Magnus I didn't mean it like th-"

"I made cookies!" My mom shouts walking over to us. Oh my god she has the worst timing. Like is a parent thing or...

"Oh thank you Mrs. Lightwood. These look delicious but I am really exhausted. I should probably get some rest. I'll be sleeping on the couch right?" He questions not even glancing my way.

"No of course not. The couch is way too uncomfortable. You'll be sleeping in Alec's room. Right Alec?" I guess they also know how to make things awkward.

"Sure mom." I mumble. She smiles sweetly.

"Well aren't you two getting along so well." Yeah, right. I get up and turn off the untouched TV. So much for getting a good night rest.
