Hello you awesome people! Before you start reading you should know that I came with the idea for this fic from the movie "The Wedding Date", for those who have seen it, you know what to expect for the others, I hope that I will make you interested in the idea. I'm not going to write everything like in the movie but the main idea is the same.
P.S I do not own anything.
P.S.2 I will excuse myself for the mistakes that I'll make, though I hope that won't be the case

Chapter 1
My name is Alexander Lightwood but I prefer to be called Alec, so please keep that in mind, I'm a 28 male who just broke up with his boyfriend, technically he broke up with me after asking me to marry him just last week…but who cares, the important thing is that I'm single. I'm also a writer and my 2nd book, "The Safe House" has just got out, so I've got that going for me, which is nice.
Back to my relationship problem, or lack of, just please picture this for me, the love of your life, the man you've known since you were 5 years old asks you to marry him only to brake off the engagement a week later, I mean seriously, who the fuck does that? And of course me being me, I already announced to my family that I'll be getting married. Okay, technically I didn't announce it to everybody, but I did tell my sister and she made sure that everybody else will be aware that I'll be getting married. And now, only a week later I have to tell them that I'm very much single again.
2 years later…
-Everything it's going to be fine Alec, sure he is going to be there since he is Clary's brother, you know brother of the bride, but we are also going to be there, who know maybe you'll even find a hot, awesome boyfriend to rub it In his face.
-Oh I'm sure it's going to be just like that, Izzy. I mean, boyfriends fall out of the sky, right? It's not like I've been single for the past 2 years.
-Whatever, just remember that me, Jace, Max and even mom and dad will always be on your side and we promise to not let you alone with that asshole.
-Fine, but if something goes wrong, it's your fault, and you are patching my broken heart.
-Very funny, Alec. I'll let you overthink everything and I'll get to you later plus I have to work.
-Okay, take care of you, love you sis.
-Love you too, bro, but you already know that.
So that was my amazing sister whom is constantly worried about my love life but she did say something interesting today about finding some hot guy to rub it in his face and show Sebastian that he is not the only man that exists in this world and that I can do so much better than him. He'll curse the day he broke off the engagement. Okay, the problem is now that I don't know any hot available guys who'll want to pretend to be my boyfriend at the wedding.
A week after I had that interesting conversation with my sister a column written by my amazing friend Aline appeared in The New York Times and it was about a male escort and his life, how he got in this business, why are people hiring escorts , what they usually demand from him… It really was an interesting story and I thought about it all day and that's how I came up with the idea that I of course need to hire an escort to bring to my brother's wedding. You might wonder now where I'll find said escort since I don't know anyone who is an escort or who knows one, except Aline….
-Hi Aline! How are you? How is Helen?
-Oh, hey Alec, I didn't except to hear from you today, I thought you were still in that "no people" period where you don't talk to anybody just to come with a mind blowing murder for your murder.
-Very funny, it's not that I don't want to talk to anybody, is just that nobody wants to deal with me when I need to come up with something. Apparently I'm a " teenage girl on her first period" in these times, Jace's words.
-Sorry to brake it to you Alec, but Jace is right. So how may I help you, because I don't think you called me just to chat.
-Right, you're right, I need the phone number of that escort you've interviewed for your last column.
-What? Why in the name of God would you need that guy's number? Because if you need to get laid we could go to a gay bar, you don't need to pay for sex, Alec. I'm sure you know that.
-By the Angel, of course I'm not going to pay for sex. I'm fine, thank you for your concern regarding my sex life. But no, I don't need to hire him or anything ,I….I need his help, because my next book might be about a hooker, so I thought that I could seek his help for some details.
-Right….I'll send you his name is Magnus Bane, he is supposed to be the highest ranking escort in New York, I'm sure he'll help you, he seemed to be a really nice person.
-Thanks, Aline, I owe you one.
-Nonsense, but you could pay for dinner once if you really feel indebted.
-We'll see about that. Bye Aline, thanks again.
Okay, so maybe I lied to her, but she wouldn't agree to my plan, and I can't go alone so I don't have any other option left. It might cost me a small fortune but at least I won't have to survive alone through that hell. Sure, my family will be there, but I know them, they'll keep their attention on me for a total of 5 minutes, and then they'll get distracted. But it's fine, it has always been like that, and I really don't mind, I'm not the most social person and sometimes people get uncomfortable when I don't try to approach new subjects. But if this guy will accept to be my date to the wedding, he'll have to stay by my side and be sure that I won't embarrass myself in front of my ex and that he'll be sorry for letting me walk away.
Best plan ever! Now all I have to do is call him.
