He knew what they would assume now, and only hoped that Jace and Izzy would not be home upon his returning. Leftover from yesterday is in the fridge. His message was short and vague, just stating " Will be out today. Only then had they finally come out with some useful information, but of course this little episode had only succeeded in making them more curious and suspicious.ĭownstairs, he took a post-it note and stuck it to the fridge where they couldn't help but notice it. Naturally, they had been absolutely determined to find out what he needed that information for, and had been pestering him for almost half an hour before his nerves had been so utterly on the edge that he had snapped at them to either shut the fuck up or answer his goddamn question. It had been bad enough to ask them how they would describe him two days prior: both Jace and Isabelle had looked at him as if he'd just sprouted another pair of arms. Alec got up early, had a quick shower and then went downstairs as quietly as possible, making sure he didn't wake up his siblings – not only would they be incredibly pissed if he disrupted their beauty sleep at seven in the morning, but it was also part of his plan of saving himself the nagging questions that were bound to arise and the mortification that came with them. There was really nothing else that could be said about it, except that he was thoroughly thrilled and flashed and was determined to queue up to get a ticket for All's Well That Ends Well, too.Īnd then, all of a sudden, it was Saturday. The play itself was gigantic, and one of the best productions he had ever seen. Still, he managed to push past some of them and get hold of a good seat in one of the front rows from where he could hear and see everything perfectly. He was there relatively early, and yet the place already swarmed with people. Maybe Jace had been right and this was all caused by him being a hormonal and sexually deprived eighteen-year-old boy and none of this would have happened if he'd gotten laid recently.įinally, it was Friday evening, and after convincing his siblings that no, he was not going on a date and yes, he could look after himself, he went to Central Park. Was it even possible to have a more-or-less crush on two people at the same time?Īt some point, just when he felt as if his head was going to explode from thinking too much, he groaned and decided to chalk it all up to hormonal overload and that it would be the best course of action to just wait and see how things simmered. And yet here he was, pining for a boy he had only just met and who was not only totally out of his league but also straight and very much taken and at the same time romanticising a person he had never really met at all and feeling rather like a teenage girl developing a crush on a fictional character or something. He hadn't done that since he had gotten over his crush on Jace, and he had never done it before that. He just didn't fantasize about being with other guys. It was confusing, really, because it wasn't like him at all. His mind was constantly filled with either recalling Magnus's face and smile and inwardly freaking out about meeting him on Monday, or wondering who could have possibly sent the letters and being excited about finally receiving the next one and finding out more about this person. It was downright ridiculous, he thought, considering that he had known both for only about a week, but he found it increasingly hard to not think about at least one of them. Friday morning was equally boring and tiring, but at least Alec managed to distract himself a little and not constantly think about both Magnus and his secret admirer. Thursday went by slowly, the hours dragging out as chewing gum, just like it always is when you are desperately waiting for something.
