Will You Go Out With Me?

                                    

                                          
Magnus woke up at the sound of his alarm blaring. He groaned and got up. Morning classes suck the fun out of college. But then he remembered something. He would see Alec again. Last night they talked almost till midnight. A smile appeared on his face. Now that they were talking, college would be even more fun.
He sauntered into his walk-in wardrobe and took his time deciding what to wear. In the next fifty minutes he had showered, put on makeup and had dressed to impress. He gave himself a one over in the full length mirror. He had put on a white shirt which was untucked with faded blue jeans, white sneakers with silver laces and a dark purple jacket which went down to his mid-thigh and the collar was up. He had worn two rings on his right hand and one on the other, a metal ear cuff on his right ear and a singular chain around his neck with an opal blue stone pendant. His eyes were lined with black eyeliner and light pink eyeshadow, a dash of highlighter on his cheekbones and natural lip gloss on his lips. His hair was lightly spiked, no highlights for today. He flashed a smile at himself and went to prepare some breakfast.

"You look smug." Catarina said climbing into the backseat.
                          
Magnus used to pickup his friends on most days. Today he was more than happy to pick them up. Raphael had called shotgun yesterday so he was sitting in front, while Catarina and Ragnor were at the back.
                          
"I bet he hasn't been able to wipe that off since yesterday." Rapahel commented.
                          
"Do you want me to scowl?" Magnus asked.
                          
"Maybe. You look like your face is gonna crack." Raphael smirked.
                          
"As long as it doesn't ruin my makeup, its okay."
                          
"So did you guys text?" Cat asked.
                          
"Really? Do I have to listen to this?" Ragnor whined.
                          
"You can shut your ears if you want to." Raphael quipped. Ragnor scowled and looked out of the window.
                          
"We did. It felt really good, like we had already talked for ages."
                          
"Did you stay up all night?" Raphael asked.
                          
"No."
                          
"Are you sure? You look a little tired."
                          
He frowned at Raphael. "No I don't."
                          
"Magnus?" Catarina raised an eyebrow at him smirking.
                          
"Okay I might have not slept my usual hours." He said rolling his eyes.
                          
Ragnor gasped. Raphael and Cat looked at him. Magnus was a little startled.
                          
"You gave up your 'beauty sleep' for that boy?" Ragnor asked poking his head between the two front seats, looking at Magnus.
                          
"Uh...I guess."
                          
"Good Lord!" Ragnor slumped back, his hand on his forehead. "You are that serious about him?"
                          
"Yeah. I mean I want to get to know him."
                          
Nobody said anything.
                          
"Why? Is there any problem, Ragnor?" he asked.
                          
"No. I just didn't think it was that serious. He is not the first crush you have had."
                          
"Alexander is different. I don't know why, but he is." Magnus said softly and smiled.
                          
"Clearly." Ragnor mumbled.
                          
Magnus didn't understand Ragnor's behaviour. He didn't mind him not being interested in listening about Alec but now he seemed disturbed. He would have to talk to him, later, just the two of them.

Alec was relieved when he reached class on time, well on time for him was ten minutes before the class started. He woke up a little late because he had snoozed the alarm in his sleep. The aftermath of that was hurriedly getting ready, grabbing his bag and running to college. Only when Jace stifled a laugh looking at him, he realized how shitty he looked. His hair was out of sorts, his clothes looked like they had been pulled out of dumpster and he also looked sleep deprived. He was normally a sharp dresser, but right now he looked like someone with a white van full of candy. He tried fixing his hair a bit, running his fingers through them over and over. He unzipped his hoodie, pulled up the sleeves just below the elbows, straightened his shirt collar and pulled the hem down to straighten it out a bit. He had a hint of a stubble growing, well he couldn't do anything about that.
