Magnus POV

ARghhhh I'm taking him on a date today! I was completely oblivious to all the weird stares I was getting from Raphael, Ragnor and Cat as who were all just chatting among ourselves talking about minor things, like homework and gossip. Shit! Why have they stopped talking, and looking at me oddly! I tried to shoot them a small smile.

"What you guys looking at? I know I'm fabulous but I don't date my friends," I said with a playful wink, I don't date friends with exceptions of boys with black hair and blue eyes and aren't a Herondale.

"We weren't staring at you because we can't keep our eyes away..." Cat smirked slyly.

"We were looking at you because you randomly interrupted our conversations about Mr Nix's mood swings by shouting..." Raphael trailed off mirroring Cat's smile.

"Enter Mag's fangirling squeal 'IM TAKING HIM ON A DATE TODAY!'" Ragnor finished with a deadpan and a raised eyebrow.

"So whos 'Him'?" Cat started the onslaught of questions, Dear lord not the integration please, anythingg but that.

"How do you know him?" Rags gushed, as they all slowly started to close in around me.

"Does he go to our school?" Raphael followed up lazily, but we could all tell he was just as eager to everyone else for the details.

"How long have you been going out with him?" Cat squealed as she grabbed my arm and jumped up and down.

"How long did you think you could hide him from us?" Ragnor narrowed his eyes at me, taking a menacing step forward and an accusing finger point to my chest.

"He hasn't passed the test of our approval yet." Raphael cracked his knuckles, Jesus Christ please someone save me. No save Alec, if he ever has to get re-introduced to my friends as my boyfriend.

"Yes he goes to our school, We haven't been going out long only a few days, and I know him from the club." Technically none of that was a lie I did meet Alexander at the club.

"How hot is he on a scale of 1 - 10" Cat said thoughtfully, just as my phone went off, I reached down to my phone that was on the side of the sofa only to have someone's green tipped hand nab it from my reach.

"I'll be nabbing that. Thank. You. Very. Much!" Ragnor said as he unlocked it, his eyes lit up in glee, and Raphael peered over his shoulder at the phone and started reading aloud.

"'Hey Mags, I'm really looking forward to today but then again you don't have to go on a date with me if you don't want to. But either way I'm happy we're together. I'll hopefully see you soon!" Raphael drawled in a comical voice.

"Howwww Sweeeet." Ragnor said sarcastically sweet as he threw the phone back me, but not before checking the contact name. "His name is Blue-Eyes in Mag's phone."

"He doesn't sound very confident or the type you go for Mags," Cat said, "But being honest you're not usually this worried for dates... He sounds really nice, please try - Oh I don't Mags." What she was trying to say is that he isn't like the twats I have dated before who are that full of themselves that when I say to them 'It's not working out' they take it just like I said 'Oh it might rain today' while we are wrapped up in bed before leaving each other and never giving it a second thought.

"Don't worry Cat I won't break him... He is too nice for that, We are going to take things slow I think..." I said softly as I pictured my Alexander standing there with his endearing blush as he saw what name I had put myself under in his phone.

"HE'S A CLOSET BOY!" Ragnor's eyes silted as he took in the information me and Cat were talking about. "How are you going to cope with that? No public display of affections! No grindin' in the club lights! No showing him off as you boyfriend! No going to meet the folks! Just pretending to be a friend around someone who you clearly care for! Having to put up with all the guys - and girls hitting on him! No offence Mag's but I don't think you will be able to keep it up. He will make you feel trapped. It didn't work last time... You both got burned."

How dare he! I have changed since last time! I am more mature now. Yeah so I might always be itching to touch him but I'm willing to do it for Alexander! "That was different. I don't mean to point the finger here Rags but we are cut from the same cloth and you managed to wait for Raphael!" I said huffily as I crossed my arms over my chest.

Ragnor and Raphael had been dating for ages now... Come to think about it, it has nearly been about 4 years I think. Raphael was born into a really religious family, when he met Ragnor he was confused about his sexuality because he thought it was something wrong. He had been taught by his family that to like the other gender was some sort of disease that he was a monster. It was sort of a star crossed, love story I guess fate had it for them that day.

Me and Ragnor were 15 and after getting another homophobic comment from Alexei's Father who was a Priest in the local area. We had plotted our revenge to spray paint his car and stick loads of gay porn onto his window screen - along with the toilet papering the entire car like a big ass gay present. (Very mature plan). We knew that Priest Quincey was holding a hearing that day, so we had snuck into the car park wearing rainbow onesies and masks. I had favored the cat mask where Ragnor had a green monster of some sort with white horns, I can remember I called him Shrek cross with a rhino that morning. We were just spraying the two male symbols interlocked and random sayings to prove that bigot wrong. When we heard a cough from behind us, I remember nudging Ragnor as I saw a Latino boy around our age staring at the car in confusion - not in disgust like I assumed this boy would. He was leaning on the gatepost that led back into the graveyard that led to the church.

"You spelt skeleton wrong. It's not Skellington." He said with a raised eyebrow at our attire, that's when I looked at his semi-formal attire, it was plain black jeans, a white shirt and a black tie that hung lose around his neck.

"And how would you spell it church boy," Ragnor sneered from behind the mask, throwing his hands up in frustration.

" S-K-E-L-E-T-O-N," The boy seemed unfazed at the whole situation, he wasn't running for the hills back into the church to report us. He just seemed aloof and uncaring of the whole world around him. Ragnor seemed satisfied with that spelling and ran around the car where he had put the mispelt word, I was just eyeing our intruder warily it's not every day someone from a strong belief's church agree with just sits their watching us cause chaos. I remember thinking what's his motive.

"FOR FUCK SAKE WHERE DID I PUT IT!" Ragnor threw down his mask and stared grouchily at the boy waving the spray can at the boy, "If you're so bothered come change it yourself before it dries."Ragnor had meant the comment to be a dig at the boy not realizing that the boy was actually coming down nearer to us and took the paint can from Ragnor's hand.

"Nice nails amigo," The boy smirked at Ragnor's messily painted green nails and Rangor's goldfish expression. As he made his way to the wing of the care and changed the spelling, "There now it says, 'We share the same skeletons,'"

"Well do you share the same heart as us?" Ragnor said coyly.

"Very much so," The church boy grinned impishly ear to ear as he grabbed Rangor's mask and slowly walked his way back into the grave-yard, "Adios I'll see you around green pea and puss in boots."

"Me and Raph are different to you and that Blue-eyes!" Ragnor retorted as he linked his hands with Raphael.

"I waited one and a half years for Raph - and I defiantly wouldn't change it - but Mag's you don't do long term relationships," Rangor said as gently.

"I am here yanno! I'm not some mute, don't talk as if I wasn't the ex-closet kid here," Raph said jokingly, squeezing Ragnor's hand "But this boy of yours is going to be unsure, he will feel awful at forcing you to hide who you are just for them - trust me speaking from experience- but as long as you're willing to stick by his side for the whole ride, it will be worth it in the end. Then I'll support you're relationship."

"What we are trying to say Mags, is are you serious about this?" Cat summed up the silent question.

"I'm serious, jeez guys it was getting all deep and dark then," I chuckled to try keep the light hearted tone, as I pushed past them into my room.

Of course I want the date to go on! Like some famous person once said - THE SHOW MUST GO ON. I have everything planned all I need now is you and your pretty little ass ;) xxx - Mags

11:01am

Izzy POV

EMERGENCY RING ME NOW KMN! xxx - Mags

Shit! I nearly dropped the phone as soon as I saw Magnus's text come through, I got a weird look from Alec as I juggled my phone and my apple from the kitchen and practically ran down the east wing corridor and up the stairs to my room where I kicked the door shut and lay back on my bed clicking dial. After three rings Magnus finally picked up.

"What's the emergency! Is it clothes? The school play? GOSSIP? MAGNUS - Don't leave me in suspense here." I gushed as I rolled onto my front.

"I don't know what to doooooo." Magnus's voice came panicky through the phone.

"Mags hun, I can't answer those sort of questioning self worth questions or what is life? OR what does the future hold?" I sighed down the phone at my melodramatic friend as I logged up my mac book, "All I can answer are questions on fashion or boys? Take your pick."

"...ImTakingYourBrotherOnADateAndIHaveNoCLueWhatToDo" Magnus rushed ahead, I suppressed my giggle at him as I logged into facebook to scroll down the latest news from my old school and new school.

"Ohhhh so it's a boy question," I wiggled my eyebrow at him, "Why didn't you just say that the Great M Bane struck down powerless of the thought of one date."

"Nuuuu don't tease this is serious! I want to make it perfect! And I only have a 6 hours till I pick him up!"

"What have you got planned?" I wonder what Magnus has got in store for my brother...

"Nil, Zero, Nought, Zilch, Bugger all. JAAAACCCK DIDDLY SHIT! or as Raph would say NADA " He sounded frustrated, this is a prime example why I don't get that hung up on people.

"So nothing then?" I smirked as I logged up the skpe icon, "Log on skype you dumbass,"

"ISABELLE SOPHIA LIGHTWOOD take this damn seriously and I'm already awaiting the skype call." Magnus said moodily before hanging up the phone, Fine, Fine i'll put him out of his , misery. I clicked the little green call button as I saw Magnus's face appear on the screen, his eyebrows were bent into a thick scowl, his arms crossed over his chest and he was pouting.

"Hey Mags," I waved at the screen only to be met with Magnus's glare as his eyes narrowed at the wave.

"Don't 'Hey Mags' me young lady! And here I thought we were friends and you're not even willing to help me on this date," He flared his hands up in the air before tucking them back together. He could probably run a whole one man drama with his attitude.

"Tut tut, right so what sort of date do you want? A dinner date and movies date or something less cliche?" Is it that Magnus actually cares about this date as much as Alec?

"Well Alexander is closet so I don't really want to force him out in busy areas..." Magnus said thoughtfully as he bit his lip and moved his laptop from the desk over to his canary bed. I had only really seen snippets of Magnus's room through the web-cam but from what I gathered it followed no theme or colour scheme. Unless rainbow is one?

"Well are parent's aren't home so you could have dinner here and a movie?" I said mischievously as I started messaging Clary about the art homework.

"HELL NO, that's just asking for you to spy on us!" Magnus spotted my plan straight away as he shot an accusing finger in the screen's direction. Dang my plan gone again.

"Why not a picnic or something? I dunno I haven't been here in New York for long to find the great date places. I don't even date," I said the last part more to myself than to the screen. My phone buzzed again somehow the subject of homework between me Clary and turned into Fray's Match Making service. I groaned aloud slapping my forehead. Like I just said to Magnus I don't date Clary. Stop trying to hook me up with you're cute nerdy glasses friend.

"You're not even listeninggggg to meeee," Magnus whined with his head in his hands, until I pulled my eyes from my phone to his face. "I've decided on a picnic date."

"That's good Alec will enjoy that." I hummed in agreement to the idea. Isolated area with only the two of them and nature snazzy and perfectly private for your closet date.

"OOoooo I have a perfect plan." Magnus started to look slightly manic before they flicked tabs leaving me skype telling me the video was unavailable, "Is Clary trying to play match maker again for you and that Sheldon guy?"

"It's Simon," I said automatically while texting Clary that she was being stupid, "He is in our Visual Media class, you know should take more notice of your friends."

"Meh I'm sure Sam is nice enough..." Magnus said absently I heard his hands flying over his laptop. "What should I wear..."

"Hmmm dial down the flashy colours no neons," Alec wouldn't appreciate the flashiness. "Show me all you're one shaded tee's, oooooOO and your different chinos,"

Magnus nodded as he clambered off of his bed and wandered to the other side of his cramped room and kept flicking on and off the screen as he whizzed around his room.

"I'm back! Here's what I got." Magnus showed me a forest green shirt with long sleeves, a maroon shirt with three quarter sleeves, a white one with a low cut neck.

"Hmmm the green shirt will complement your eyes." I said as he looked incredulously at me.

"I'll look like RAGNOR!" He sounded appalled.

"Well what I said was true, green will go well..." I trailed off as Clary yet again was listing off the good qualities about the nerd in the glasses that I already knew.

"Fine! Fine! I trust you!" He locked eyes with me across the screen as he ringed his hands together before grabbing the t-shirt and jumping out the way of the camera, I saw his discarded top fly back onto his bed as he came back into view wearing the green shirt.

"Right now put those dark brown chinos on," I directed as I saw him pick up the chinos and go of screen again. I jumped at the chance to write a quick reply to Clary.

Clare-bear i'm busy fgs! Yeah fine i'll admit Simon's cute. But i'm not looking for a relationship. I doubt he would know what a relationship was if it came and slapped in the face and danced on the table in a pink tutu. And he only has eyes for you that's the obvious part xxx ly ttyl -Iz

"Clary still bothering you about that Stanley guy?" Magnus must of seen my face fall as I wrote out the last of the text.

"Ish. She mean's well but she doesn't realize that Simon only looks at her rather than anyone else. Me and Simon, I doubt we are compatible I'll probably scare him off. I'm not really bothered about the whole thing." I said offhandedly like the subject didn't really matter, Magnus just shot me a look that said 'I don't believe you'.

"Right lets think about make-up! Because Alec must like you for who you are! Just because we dialed your fashion colours down a notch doesn't mean we have to dampen the make-up," I swiftly changed the subject from me and Simon. "I'm thinking gold eye-shadow and winged eye liner, hmmm and put your gold rings on, OOooo and your green gem stud in!"

"GAH! So much green Rags is going to be jealous..." Magnus said mournfully as he was concentrated as he was carefully applying the golden eye shadow.

"Fine! Fine! put golden nail polish on then and your brown bomber jacket." I tutted as he whined, and I searched the 'Mortal Insturments' into youtube and started playing their music out loud.

"Iz? You're playing Sherwin's band aren't you? Girl don't you dare tell me you're not interested in him," Magnus glared at me out of the corner of his eye while he was doing his eye liner.

"Jordan's in the band as well!" Their band was made up of Simon, Jordan. Matt, Eric and Kirk, I only knew Simon and Jordan but they were an okay band from what I heard.

"So you infatuated with Jordan, Maia won't be very happy." Magnus joked.

"God No! Just shut up!" I laughed as I threw a sock at the laptop, I heard a soft knock on my door. It must be Alec since we are the only ones in this castle-sized house I thought bitterly. "Gimme a sec Mags,"

I walked across my room to where my door was and opened it to see a my big brother looking shy and bashful. I giggled at the sight of him which caused him to blush slightly as he already knew that I read him like an open book.

"Hey Iz as you probably know that I have a date today... With Magnus and I need some help getting ready etc etc..." Alec bit his lip and threw a hand through his hair, his blush growing stronger every minute.

"Yeah a little birdie told me! I'll be there in a sec!" I smiled happily at him, I'm glad Alec actually asked me for help rather than me break the barricade into his room and force him into any good clothes.

"Okay then - Well - I'll be in my room..." He laughed awkwardly as he retreated down the corridor and up some more stairs. I smiled contently until he was out of sight before bounding back into my room, I must of been beaming.

"Wassup cupcake?" Magnus drawled as he slide the rings onto his hands.

"Alec wants my advice for tonight! He never normally asks!" I gushed out happily, and clapped my hands together dancing in a little circle, "He used to be so closed off before we came to New York!"

"He must be nervous," Magnus voice cracked in the middle of his sentence, he didn't blush like Alec did but I could tell by the slight colouring underneath all his make-up that he had the tell-tale signs of the blush.

"I think someone else is nervous..." I wriggled an eyebrow at him, "I need to go help him out and you need to prepare the rest of your date Mr."

"OF course I'm nervous! Izzy be the darling friend you are and text me all the picnic food he doesn't like! SHIT THE PICNIC! I NEED TO GO PREPARE IT I KNEW I FORGOT SOMETHING!" That was the last Izzy saw of one of her closest friends clamber off of the bed and run into his apartment leaving the door ajar, letting me see into the main area where he pushed Ragnor away from the fridge. I giggled to myself as I texted Magnus what not to bring, before ending the call on skype and walking to Alec's room.

I had to walk up the the stairs on the second floor to reach his room, since it was all the way at the top of the house, when we came here it was used as an observatory for the stars but we converted it into a bedroom for him. I just walked into his room and glanced around the familiar surroundings the ceiling made of glass, the wall of his bed full of post it notes, the millions of books that overflowed from his 3 shelves, his bow mounted on the wall next to his walk in wardrobe. All made up of neutral colours. The victim on of tonights plans laid on the floor watching the clouds from his position on the floor with a book long forgotten in his hand.

"My. My. My Alec I have a plan for you..." I cackled making him jump back into reality as I grabbed his wrist and pulled him into the wardrobe again. "Magnus is going to love you tonight!"

AN -

It is so tempting to write a oneshot of Ragnor and Raphaels meeting but that will be in their story because my plan is once I'm finished with the Malec in this world/school I shall move onto all the other ships. I have already been requested to do a Sizzy one :) I know my updates come in little bursts but thats either when I hit inspiration or I have the time to write.

Thanks Rebecca for the lovely reviews! I never thought a small little cyber message would be so encouraging thanks for the reviewers that guest and Jello.

The date will happen next chapter! Hope you guys enjoyed the beginning of Santiafell and Sizzy in this chapter!

Until next time.
