A/N: Heres another one… enjoy my babies… thanks for all the reviews. I love you :)

The next day, Alec woke to his roommate Simon brushing his messy hair. Which meant that he was having company for the day. And possibly the night. So Alec pushed himself out of bed and got dressed groggily. It was a Saturday, which meant the dress codes were a little more relaxed, so he dug through his drawer and pulled out his box of piercings. Simon whistled at the vast amount of studs and bar and hoops and he looked curiously at Alec, who was almost reluctant to put them in.

"You know, you can wear those all the time right? This place is actually pretty cool about it. My sister went here and they never told her to take out her piercings."

Alec nodded and smiled, Simon winked and smirked as Alec pulled out his favourites. When Simon saw what they were and where they went on Alecs body, he gasped in mock scandal and laughed. Alec threw a pillow at him and went into the bathroom.

He stood before the mirror, pushing his hair off his forehead to slip his sliver bar through his left eyebrow. He then picked up his little black and blue spider bites and slipped them into the right hand side of his bottom lip. He then got his scaffolding bar through the top of his right ear and his spiral that spanned from the top to the bottom of his left ear. He then took off his shirt and stuck his royal blue nipple ring in before adding the final ones, three metallic blue and sparkling black bars through his left hip. He smiled and nodded in satisfaction before putting his shirt back on, going back to the room, ignoring Simons remarks about how much of a rebel he was, and grabbed his bag, heading for the library.

Sitting by the window, staring out at the pale blue morning sky, Alec put his headphones in and set about writing his latest piece of guitar genius.

At some point in the hours, he felt the table wobble and looked up to see a guy with green hair and deep emerald eyes sitting across from him. The guy smiled and Alec slipped his headphones off and smiled back.

"Hey there." The guy said sultrily. Alec cocked an eyebrow.

"Hi." He replied.

The guy smiled. "I'm Ragnor. What about you blue eyes?"

Alec felt himself blush. "Alec."

Ragnor smiled deeply, holding out his tattooed hand for a handshake. Alec took it and Ragnor smirked.

"So, Alec, how would you feel about coming out with me tonight?"

Alec looked at him in shock. Was this guy asking him out? He took a deep breath and spoke softly, gently turning him down because truth be told, he was kind of longing after someone else.

"Um. I'm sorry, but i cant."

Ragnor pursed his lips and tilted his head. "Why baby?"

Alec ducked his head embarrassedly. "I, um, i kind of have a... Friend." He finished lamely.

Ragnor smiled evilly. "Oooh, like a boyfriend?" He said with a winking flash of green eyes. Alec gulped.

"Not exactly."

"Ah. So a... Potential boyfriend?" Ragnor whispered secretively. Alec blushed and played with the cord of his headphones in sheer awkwardness.

"Yes? Maybe? I'm not sure... I mean, i think he might like me but i don't know."

Ragnor nodded sympathetically while internally visualising Magnus' face once he hears all this juicy stuff Alec was saying. Ragnor outwardly sighed, shrugging.

"Well, you can't blame a guy for trying."

Alec nodded. "I guess. Sorry, Ragnor. But it was nice to meet you."

Ragnor nodded and stood up, extending a hand for a shake. "Indeed it was, Alec. I feel sure that ill be seeing a lot more of you around here." He winked knowingly and smiled, walking away, rejoicing in the fact that he just shook the hand of the soon to be richest man in America.

…

Ragnor ran to Magnus' room, smiling widely and breathing hard as he threw the door open to find Magnus and Cat painting each other's nails.

"OMG!OMG!OH MY SWEET GOOD GOD IN HEAVEN ABOVE! You guys aren't gonna believe this!" He shouted, jumping onto the bed and taking a large bite out of a slice of half eaten cake.

"What?" Cat said bemusedly.

Ragnor beamed and began his tale. "I was in the library and guess who i saw sat all alone at a table in the back corner?"

They looked at him expectantly. He sighed dramatically before yelling. "Alexander Gideon Lightwood!"

Magnus and Cat squealed, knowing this was the beginning of a juicy story, as it always was with Ragnor Fell.

"By the way, Magnus Bane, why did you not tell us that Mr Tall, Dark and Mysterious was a bad boy rebel?"

Magnus' brow furrowed. "What? Why is he a bad boy? Is it because of his ninja-ism?"

"No. Its because he has several piercings on his face and i dare say he has more elsewhere, if you get my drift." He said with a wink.

Magnus was shocked. Alec hadn't been wearing any piercings when they'd been together. Ragnor caught his expression and smirked. "Once I've told my story, go there and see for yourself. You're gonna wanna talk to him after this anyway."

Magnus and Cat were intensely hanging off of Ragnors every word.

"So right, i sat down at his table and flirted a bit, sorry, i couldn't resist. His eyes really are amazing." He hastily moved on however, when he caught Magnus' possessive jealous stare.

"Anyway, i asked him out, not actually Magnus, I know he's yours. But, get this, he got all blushy and turned me down."

Magnus smiled a bit but didn't hold his breath just yet because he did not yet know Alecs reason. But Ragnor soon put their minds at ease, due to Cat literally bouncing with anticipation.

"And when i asked why he said no, he said, and i quote: Sorry. But i kind of have a... Friend. And when i asked if he meant boyfriend, he said, again quote: Not exactly."

Cat turned to Magnus with a huge grin and Magnus was buzzing. Did Alec mean him? Was Magnus Alecs not exactly boyfriend? Seeing their desperate reactions, Ragnor powered on, revelling in the epicness of his story.

"To that, i asked if he meant a potential boyfriend and he said, quote: Maybe. I'm not sure. I think he might like me but i don't know."

Ragnor finished his tale with a flourished bow and laughed at the redness in Cats cheeks and the twinkle in Magnus' eyes. Cat whispered excitedly.

"Did he mean Magnus? I bet he meant Magnus! Oh my gods! This is so cute!" She and Ragnor fell about into fits of laughter and fangirling over what they officially named as MALEC. While Magnus smiled to himself, biting his lip and thinking about those blue eyes.

They sat together laughing and talking excitedly until Magnus jumped off the bed. Cat looked at him with a furrowed brow.

"Where you going?" She asked. Magnus smirked, straightening his electric blue tie and shaking his glitter covered hair.

"I'm going to get the guy."

Cat gasped as Ragnor cheered and Magnus shook his hips before swinging out the door in a blaze of colour. He had no idea what he would say to Alec. Should he tell him that he knows

all about his family? No. He decided that Alec should tell him when he's ready to trust him. And Magnus was ok with that because the beautiful boy liked him too. So nothing was going to stop Magnus from getting his baby, no security guards or FBI files or bad timing. This time would be it.

Magnus strolled through the doors of the library, flashing a smile at a group of freshman before weaving his way to the back corner where Ragnor had said that Alec was sat. He went past the final bookcase and froze. Because Alec was sat there, chair tipping back on two legs, hair messy and spikey like it had never seen a brush, and low and behold, the piercings. One on his eyebrow, spider bites in his lip, a scaffolding bar in one ear, a spiral in the other. God, he was hot. Like nuclear hot. Magnus had thought so before but seeing him all rebellious made Alec go from nuclear hot to oh my god im burning alive bad boy alert!

He stood there, gormlessly staring for god knows how long and was only pulled from his trance by the lock of bright blue eyes on his shimmering golden green ones. Alec was staring right at him with a light pink tinge to his cheeks. Magnus gulped, trying to control the problem that threatened to make itself known in his pants, and covered his guilt with a smile, sauntering over to Alecs table and slipping gracefully into the seat opposite him.

"Hey there blue eyes." He said in a low voice. Alec smiled a little.

"Hi. How are you?"

Magnus grinned. "Very well actually. A friend of mine just told me that a guy i like might like me too."

Alecs eyebrows rose quickly but he bought them back down, forcing himself not to get his hopes up. Hundreds of guys like Magnus, that is a truth universally acknowledged.

"Oh? Well that's good. How long have you liked him?" Alec asked in an attempt to have a normal conversation. Magnus smiled and leaned forward on his elbows.

"Not very long actually. I only met him a few days ago."

Alec nodded slowly, licking his lower lip. "Does he go here then?"

Magnus felt a zap of excitement rush through him. He was a sucker for conversations like this, where you both know what's really going on but you don't say it outright.

"Yeah. He's a freshman. He started here like maybe 4 days ago."

Alecs eyebrows rose. He thought he knew where this was going but was reluctant to air it, so instead, he played along.

"I see. So, how did you meet him?"

Magnus grinned, watching as Alec set his chair down normally and leaned forwards, arms outstretched on the table, fingers drawing patterns over the wooden desk.

"Well, i actually bumped into him. Literally. And the first words i said to him weren't particularly nice but we got it sorted. I know I've only known him a few days but I consider him to be a good friend."

Alec smiled, felling a blush rise in his neck. "But you don't want to be friends do you?"

Magnus licked his lips. "If friends is all he wants and my informant was wrong in his interpretation then friends is what we shall remain as."

Alec bit his lip, his eyes staring firmly at the table top. "Well, what if he doesn't want to be friends either?"

Magnus cocked an eyebrow. "Then id be good with that because i could finally do everything I want to do to him."

Alec felt a shiver run down his spine and he gulped thickly. Flicking his gaze up to meet Magnus' eyes, he practically whispered.

"What do you want to do to him?"

Magnus' eyes darkened and his lips curled up at the edges in a sexy smirk. He got up out of his seat and slid around the table, moving sensually and climbing over the seat beside Alec, straddling the back of the chair with his skinny jean clad legs. He watched Alecs eyes follow his movements with a lustful sheen and he leant closer to him, licking his lips.

"I want to take him and kiss the hell out of him. I want to feel him all over me. I want to touch him and hold him and make him mine. I want to be the only one to make his knees go weak and make him scream. I want to show him how badly i want him. I want to make out with him hard. Gods, i just want him."

Alec was blushing as Magnus lost himself in his words, his face a picture of bliss as he closed his eyes and moaned. Alec was hotter than he'd ever been and seeing Magnus like that in front of him was enough to drive him crazy. He leant closer to Magnus, as those green eyes opened, locking headedly on Alecs royal blues. Alec let out a laboured breath and whispered roughly.

"I think he wants that too. I think he wants you. Really bad. Because seeing you like this is driving him insane."

Magnus gasped, hearing the lust in Alecs tone and knowing that the boy knew that Magnus was talking about him.

"Then why are we still talking?" He said slowly, turning around in his chair and facing Alec with a smirk and a glint in his eyes. He made a 'Come Hither' motion with his finger and growled.

"Get over here already, Alexander."
