Hey blue eyes...

Alec smiled as he pulled out his phone and read Magnus' message. He was currently sitting in the coffee shop, waiting for Jace to finish his football practice.

Hey Magnus... What's up?

Magnus' reply was instant, though as he smiled and read it, a flash of pale blond hair caught his eye.

Not much. I just wanted to see you, or talk to you, seeing as I cant actually see you right now :)

Alec looked up and saw a pair of black eyes watching him, a small smile on the lips of their owner.

In that case, its good to see you Magnus... ;)

He bit his lip as he sent it. Though he was talking to Magnus, his beautiful, sexy Magnus, it felt as though the words were passing between him and someone else. Someone who was walking through the crowds towards him.

Then Magnus' reply came through.

I know. So what you up to? Not anything naughty, i hope ;)

Alec bit his lip and was about to reply when the boy with dark eyes and light hair sat opposite him.

"Alec. How are you?" He asked conversationally.

Alec smiled. "I'm good. What about you, Sebastian?"

He didn't know why he said Sebastians name but the boys eyes narrowed when he did.

Alec quickly sent a message to Magnus before he turned to Sebastian.

Nothing bad, i swear. Just drinking coffee ;)

"So, Alec. You didn't call me."

Alec felt himself blush. "Um, yeah. Sorry. I just... I would have but i think you want more than what i can give you."

Sebastian licked his lips. "Its not a secret that i like you, Alec. Its why i gave you my number. But i also gave it to you because you liked me to. You went all red and blushed and... Maybe i was going off of nothing. I'm sorry."

Alec was about to speak when his phone beeped again.

Well that's alright then :) So i was wondering if you wanted to go out with me later...

Sebastian smiled. "Who you talking to?"

Alec blushed. "A friend." He said as he replied.

Like a date?

Sebastian watched him reply and Alec looked up. Their eyes met and Sebastian smiled.

"So, was i going off of nothing? Giving you my number?"

Alec shrugged as his phone beeped.

Yes, like a a date... ;) yes or no baby ;)

He looked up from his phone and realised that Sebastian was waiting for an answer.

"Oh, um... Well, i sort of have a boyfriend guy."

Sebastian raised an eyebrow. "A sort of boyfriend guy? Early days is it?"

Alec nodded and Sebastian smiled as Alec looked back at his phone. A date with Magnus? Yes please.

Alright then... :) pick me up at 7. I have a late class today...

Sebastian watched him intensely. "You talking to your boyfriend guy?"

Alec blushed. "Um, yeah."

The blond boy nodded. "So, Alec. I know you have a boyfriend guy sort of, but i was wondering if you'd like to hang out tomorrow. With me."

Alec froze and licked his lips as his phone beeped while Sebastian looked at him expectantly.

"Ah, um... I... Hang on." He said as he checked his phone.

That's perfect :) ill pick you up then baby... ;)

Alec sighed and bit his lip as Sebastian growled under his breath. Alec looked at him when he made that noise and the boy looked away bashfully.

"Sorry. Its just, when you bite your lip... And your piercings... And those eyes. I, um... yeah. Sorry."

Alec laughed nervously. "Look Sebastian, i have a date later. And i really like him."

Sebastian looked at him sadly. "Alright then. Cant blame a guy for trying. I just thought that we had something. You seem different to all the others. So unlike my ex. He gave me hell and when i saw you, it was like a breath of fresh air. I thought that we could be friends. I'm sorry."

Alec sighed as Sebastian got up. "Sebastian! Wait. I'm still going on my date with Magnus. But maybe we could hang out. Just as friends though."

Sebastian smiled. "That's all i need Alec. See you here at 2 tomorrow afternoon?"

Alec nodded as Sebastian walked away, a smile to rival the Jokers on his lips as his eyes glinted darkly. He whispered to himself, as he put his apron on and started his shift.

"That's all I need, Alexander Gideon Lightwood. That's all i need."

Alec turned back to his phone and smiled.

Alright Magnus... :) ill see you later... ;) XXXX

With a smile, he finished his coffee as Jace swung through the door. He sat in Sebastians vacant seat, both of them unaware that those deep black empty eyes were locked on them like a hawk stalking his prey.
