Hi! Sorry about the late update I'm on holidays and I've been lazy... I've also been cleaning and watching Misfits. so um... here's the chapter, it's long-ish.
Disclaimer: I don't own The mortal instruments Cassandra Clare does all I do is torture her characters :D
Alec opened his eyes but quickly shut them when sunlight decided to attack his eyes. He rolled over but hit something. Alec opened his eyes and saw Magnus smiling down at him.
"Good morning sunshine!" Magnus greeted cheerfully.
Alec groaned and buried himself under the covers. Magnus pulled the covers back away from Alec. Alec reached for the covers but gave up after a few seconds and curled into a ball.
"Come on Allie!" Magnus said happily "We have school today you have to get up!"
Alec groaned "I don't want to go to school today" he protested "and don't call me Allie."
"You have to go to school" Magnus said, poking Alec's side "I need something good to look at while I'm there."
Alec sighed "Fine…" he uncurled and sat up.
"See that wasn't so hard" Magnus smiled and kissed Alec's cheek, "now go have a shower, get changed and when you're done come and have breakfast."
Alec nodded and got up off the bed, a sharp pain shot through his side and he sat back down on the bed holding his side.
"Ow…" he winced.
Magnus rushed over and sat down next to Alec, "What's wrong?" he asked.
Alec looked over at Magnus and saw concern written all over his face.
He doesn't care about you Alec, the little voice said, when will you get that through your thick skull?
Alec looked away "I guess my side just hurts from yesterday or something…" he mumbled, standing up carefully and walking over to his draws and pulled out some clothes.
"Maybe you should stay home today" Magnus said, "You look like you're in a lot of pain."
Alec shook his head "I'm fine really" He turned to Magnus and smiled a little, "Wait when did you get dressed?" he asked, noticing that Magnus wasn't in his pyjamas instead Magnus was wearing very tight, electric blue pants, a plain white tight shirt and a black leather jacket. Magnus had his hair up in his trademark spikes and there was glitter everywhere, his eyes were lined with black eye liner that made his green cat eyes pop.
"I got dressed a while ago" Magnus said, waving a hand.
"Why didn't you wake me up?" Alec asked.
"You looked so cute sleeping and I didn't want to wake you" Magnus said.
Alec rolled his eyes and walked out of his room to the bathroom, he could hear Magnus's laughter echoing down the hallway.
Alec showered quickly. he got out and wrapped a towel around his waist. He looked in the bathroom mirror, the black and deep purple bruises that were all over the right side of his body. He quickly pulled his sweater over his body to cover the disgusting bruises.
They're disgusting just like you, the little voice said, you deserved what Jonathan did to you.
Alec pulled on the rest of his clothes and walked out of the bathroom to the kitchen. When he walked into the room everyone's eyes were on him. He sat down next to Magnus and Vicky placed a plate of bacon and eggs in front of him.
"Eat all of your food" Vicky said, she smiled down at him.
Alec nodded and started to eat his food.
"How are you feeling boy?" Jeffery asked, "Uh… that pole seemed to knock you around pretty bad."
"What pole?" Alec asked, confused.
"The pole you ran into yesterday" Isabelle said, jerking her head in Max's direction "The pole that gave you that ugly bruise on your face."
"Oh right…" Alec said "I'm fine."
"That's good" Jeffery said, digging back into his mountain of bacon and eggs.
"Hey all!" Jace said, running into the kitchen with a massive smile on his face, "How are we on this fine morning?"
He sat down next to Max and ruffled his hair and Vicky placed a plate of food on him.
"You seem happy" Alec said, pulling his bacon apart.
"I am happy" Jace said "You know why I'm happy?" he asked.
"Why?" Max asked "Why are you happy?"
"Because I'm going to see Clary today" Jace said smiling.
"Clary?" Max asked "who's this Clary?"
"Just a girl that Jace is obsessed with" Isabelle said, flicking her hair behind her shoulder.
"I'm not obsessed with her" Jace said "I just really, really like her that's all."
Alec rolled his eyes and continued to pull apart his breakfast.
"Alec stop playing with your food and eat your breakfast" Vicky said.
Alec sighed and shoved a piece of bacon in his mouth chewing it slowly. He looked at Vicky "done."
Vicky sighed "eat all of it."
"I'm full, I'm not hungry any more" Alec said.
"Fine, I give up!" Vicky said, "Starve!" She stood up and walked out of the room.
Alec shrugged and pushed his food around his plate some more.
"You now boy" Jeffery said "You really should eat something, people will start to think you have an eating disorder or something along those lines."
"I don't have an eating disorder" Alec said, looking up at Jeffery "I'm just not hungry."
Jeffery sighed and returned to eating his food.
These people seem like they actually care… Alec thought, smiling a little, they seem like they care about me!
They don't! The little voice hissed, Alec dropped his smile, When will you learn that nobody cares.
"So Alec" Isabelle said, "Vicky said she'll pick us up from school and take us straight to the shopping center."
"You're going shopping with Isabelle?" Jace asked, shock clearly on his face, "What has possessed you to do so brother?"
Alec shrugged "I don't really know."
"I hope you survive" Jace said, "Because we all know Iz is a crazy shopper, she'll make you buy animal print clothing."
"I promised him I wouldn't do that" Isabelle said smiling, "Didn't I Alec?" she asked him.
Alec nodded "she did promise not to buy clothes with animal prints on them for me" he told Jace.
Jace nodded "Alright, I just can't believe you're going shopping."
"I can't believe it either" Alec mumbled standing up, scraping the chair against the floorboards. He walked out of the kitchen and up the stairs to his room.
"Alexander!" Someone yelled.
Alec turned around quickly almost falling off the top step before someone caught him, he looked up and saw Magnus smiling down at him. He quickly stood up and straightened his sweater.
"Hi…" he mumbled, turning back around and walking into his room, Alec knew that Magnus had followed him because he heard his door shut.
"We have three and a half minutes until someone comes up here and makes up go to school" Magnus said, Alec felt arms wrap softly around his waist, "do you know what I can do to you in three and a half minutes?" Magnus whispered in Alec's ear.
Alec felt the heat rush up to his face "I-I d-don't know what you can do in three and a half minutes" Alec said.
Alec was spun around and he looked up at Magnus, smiling slightly. Magnus leaned down and Alec leaned up.
"Stop right there" a female voice said.
Alec jumped away from Magnus and looked towards the door, Vicky was standing there with her hands on her hips.
"I know what you two can do in three point five seconds" Vicky said "you two can get your butts down to the car because it's time for school!"
Magnus sighed, "Mum! Seriously we were just about to kiss."
Vicky smiled sweetly "in the car now."
Alec nodded and quickly walked past Vicky Magnus followed him.
"We shouldn't have spent three and a half minutes talking about what I can do in three and a half minutes" Magnus said "We should have just done it."
Alec let out a small laugh, "yeah…"
They walked out of the house and got in the car. They both sat in the same places they usually sit in, Alec in the very back with Jace and Magnus sitting with Max and Isabelle in the middle.
"Are you guys ready for your second day of school?" Vicky asked excitedly.
Jace, Isabelle and Max nodded enthusiastically while Alec just kept his gaze on the car floor.
"It's not my second day of school" Magnus said "I've been going to school since I was five."
"I was asking Jace, Isabelle, Max and Alec" Vicky said.
Jeffery started the car and they drove off to their school. They pulled up in front of the school and they all got out. Max walked across the road as Magnus, Jace, Isabelle and Alec walked into their school.
Clary and Simon walked up to them as soon as they walked through the gate.
"Hi guys" Simon said, smiling like a dork.
Everyone except Alec said hi back, Alec just kept on walking hoping to get away from them all quickly.
Someone grabbed Alec's arm and he jumped.
"Sorry" Clary said "didn't mean to scare you."
Alec nodded and kept on walking.
Clary ran up beside him "I'm sorry about my idiot brother" she said "he's a douche face and I'm sorry and all…" she said.
"It doesn't matter" Alec mumbled, trying to walk faster ignoring the pain in his side.
"Hey Alec!" A familiar voice yelled, Alec heard running footsteps and soon Magnus was standing on the other side of him.
"What is it?" Alec asked.
"I just wanted to tell you something" Magnus said, looking at Clary "In private."
Clary nodded and turned around walking off somewhere.
"What do you want to tell me?" Alec asked.
"I just wanted to tell you that the date we'll be having will be on Friday" Magnus said, smiling widely.
"Kay" Alec said nodding his head, "What are we going to do on this date?" he asked.
"I have no idea but I will figure something out and I promise you that you will have a fantastic time" Magnus said.
Alec smiled "Okay."
"Magnus get away from that freak" some blond bimbo said as she passed them, she grabbed onto Magnus's arm and Alec had to use all his will power not to scratch out her eyes.
Jealous now are we? The little voice tutted, he's not even your boyfriend… he probably doesn't even like you.
Alec shook his head trying to get the little voice to shut up.
Nobody loves you, the voice hissed, and nobody will ever love you.
"Come on Maggie" The bimbo said pulling him along.
Magnus looked at Alec as if asking for permission to go Alec just waved his hand and walked off, ignoring the pain in his chest.
The bell rung out and Alec walked off to homeroom. He was the first one there so he sat down in the seat at the back.
Mrs Fairchild walked over to him "Good morning Alec" she said smiling "how are you today?" she asked.
"Fine" he mumbled, looking down at his desk.
Mrs Fairchild nodded and walked back to the front of the room, soon after the room started to fill up with students.
Alec got many dirty looks from his fellow peers and he heard them say many hurtful things but he tried to ignore it all but failed when Jonathan walked past and muttered parent killing whore. Alec had to use all of his will power not to break down and cry he wasn't what Jonathan said he was, he wasn't!
You are… the little voice said, you're exactly what he said you are.
Alec squeezed his eyes shut and tried to make the little voice stop. The bell rung out and he slowly opened his eyes and got out of his chair.
"Freak" someone hissed as they walked past.
Alec sighed and went to English. He sat in the back row just like yesterday and tried to ignore the glares that were directed at him and what they were whispering about him.
The rest of the day went by terribly, in science Jonathan spilt hot water all over Alec's work, in math the blond bimbo stole his work, at lunch he was ignored most of the time, in history he got yelled at by the teacher for being two second late and during the last period of the day, gym, everyone decided to attack him with the dodge balls.
Alec walked outside the school gate and saw that Magnus, Isabelle, Jace and Max were already outside waiting beside the car.
"Hey sunshine" Jace greeted, "What took you so long?"
"Some guys thought it was funny to steal my clothes in gym" Alec mumbled "I had to get them back."
"Oh…" Jace said.
"Alec are you excited about going shopping this afternoon?" Isabelle asked, changing the subject quickly.
"Not really…" he mumbled.
"Fantastic" Isabelle said, smiling happily.
The five of them got into the car, as Alec was getting inside someone poured a drink down his back. Alec fell turned around, falling out of the car, he looked up from the ground and saw Jonathan standing above him with an empty soda cup in his hand.
"Sorry Lightwood didn't see you there" Jonathan said smirking.
Jace jumped down from the car "Piss off Morgenstern" he said, helping Alec up off the ground and into the car.
"Don't need to be so harsh Jacie boy" Jonathan said "I just didn't see him that's all."
"Whatever" Jace muttered glaring at Jonathan.
Alec shut the back door and sat down in his seat, the soft drink made his sweater stick to his back. Luckily Max, Isabelle, Magnus and Vicky were too busy talking about school to notice what just happened.
"Gross…" he mumbled, pulling at the back of his sweater trying to separate the stickiness of the drying soft drink from his skin.
"Trade shirts" Jace said, pulling off his shirt.
"Why?" Alec asked.
"You're going to the shops with Isabelle, you don't want to be walking around the shops with a sweater drenched in soft drink" Jace said.
Alec nodded pulling his sweater off and throwing it on the car floor. He heard Jace take a sharp intake of breath.
"What?" Alec asked pulling on Jace's shirt.
"He hurt you real bad yesterday didn't he?" Jace asked.
He must've seen the bruise… Alec thought.
Of course he saw the bruises you idiot he's not blind, the little voice said.
"Yeah…" Alec mumbled, he pulled at the front of his new shirt trying to loosen it up because it was too tight.
"I'm going to kill that douche face one day" Jace said.
"What's going on back there?" Vicky asked "Did I hear Jace say that he was going to kill a douche face?" she asked "And why is Jace not wearing a shirt?"
"Jonathan poured soft drink over Alec as he was getting in the car so I gave him my shirt because he's going shopping with Iz and I just think that Jonathan should die so I'm gonna kill him" Jace said, sounding every bit serious.
"Please tell me he's joking" Vicky said.
"I hope he is" Alec mumbled.
Vicky pulled up at the shopping center, "See you two later!" Vicky said as Alec and Isabelle got out of the car.
They watched as the car drove off home.
Isabelle turned to Alec with an excited look in her eyes "you ready to go shopping?" she asked grabbing his arm and pulling him into the shopping center.
"Not really" he mumbled trying to get out of her grip.
"Brilliant!" Isabelle said dragging him into the nearest clothes store.
so yeah... um tell me what you think because I love hearing what you all say about my fics :)
-Kate.
