Alec had never expected much, had never found a reason to do so— so when he turns twenty-one, in the fall of 1987, he doesn’t expect for much to change, despite what everyone keeps telling him.

Then he meets someone and suddenly, there’s a reason to expect something.

Summary:

Imagine A keeps leaving gifts for B (chocolates, flowers, love letters, etc) as an obvious hint that they have an admirer. Except B is dense and gets confused as to why someone keeps leaving their shit all over their desk, bag, and locker.

Alec starts receiving gifts from a ‘secret admirer’, which are sweet but unexpected. His disbelief in the possibility of anyone liking him clouds his judgement, and with each one he receives, his puzzled confusion grows. What he isn’t aware of, is that he does actually know who his secret admirer is, and whether he believes it or not – they’re a lot closer than he realises.

Summary:

Alec Lightwood didn’t really have friends. Then he met Magnus Bane.

“I’m Alec. I’m five, but I’ll be six in a few weeks.” He stuck his hand out for the younger boy to shake.

“I’m Magnus,” he replied, staring at Alec’s hand with confusion. Magnus finally darted his hand out and gave Alec a side-five. Alec laughed, Magnus smiled, and the bond of friendship was instantly born

Summary:

Alec slowly sinks down onto his mattress in the room at the Institute he calls his own. He folds his legs up under him, curls his arms around his waist, thinks better of the position and readjusts so his feet are propped on the down comforter and he can rest his head on his knees. His arms wrap around his legs and he tries so hard not to cry. It would be easy – he knows it would be easy – to just let everything out but he keeps it in because that’s just who he is. He’s used to this, he thinks, wanting something (someone) he can never have. It’s his own fault, he thinks, a product of being too weak. Maybe his mother should have pushed him harder when he was growing up because he has too many damn feelings.

He pushes his face into his knees and tries valiantly not to cry. He is largely unsuccessful.

Alec and Magnus are close friends but Alec wants to be more than that. Finally, he gets his chance. Or, the pining, getting-together fic that’s been haunting me for days.

Summary:

He can’t believe, doesn’t want to believe, that he canceled his wedding, kissed Magnus in front of the entire Clave, all for nothing. It can’t have been for nothing. He’s been keeping Magnus at more than arm’s length, ignoring his calls and his presence around the Institute. Alec knows that Magnus is only lending his services to help find Jace, because it’s important to Alec. Alec knows he’s being too careful. He knows that relationships aren’t set in stone. He knows that either of them could die at any moment. But he can’t imagine the hurt that Magnus would feel if they started something and Alec were to die. He can’t be the reason for Magnus’s pain.

Or at least, he couldn’t.
