Friends To Lovers #Malec#

Chapter-1

Alec's POV
  
        It was almost three in the morning when I woke up to the coolness of the room. I looked around, and noticed that the window of the room was open. I thought to myself 'I guess I forgot it's open in the evening' and I got up from my bed closed the window. When I got up from my bed, I realized how thirsty I was. I grabbed my phone and slowly made my way down to the kitchen without waking anyone up.
      
      I grabbed a bottle of water from the fridge and sat on the edge of the kitchen counter. I opened my phone to check the time and saw that it was almost half past three.
      
       The thing I hate most about myself is that I can't go back to sleep after waking up. Even though I have an early class tomorrow, I sat in the kitchen and started browsing social media. I was about to hang up when I saw my best friend Magnus was online, started texting right away.
        
           A: Hey, why are you up at this hour?

          M: Hey man, I was with Camille, I just got home.
          M: Why are you awake?

       Yeah, Camille is Magnus' girlfriend. I truly hate her. Me and Magnus have been close friends since the beginning of high school. I share with him most of the things that happen in my life, and he shares with me. Me and Magnus used to do everything together, but then Camille happened.
I started replying to Magnus while thinking about how much I hated Camille.

           A: I couldn't sleep.

       Magnus immediately replied back and we kept on messaging.

           M: I see.
           M: Try to sleep, we have class tomorrow.
           M: I don't want you to be tired.

           A: Look who is talking.
          A: Why didn't you sleep with Camille and came home at this time?

            M: You know how Camille is. She doesn't like me sleeping with her.

            A: Yeah I know.
           A: I'm going to try to sleep. You too get some sleep. I'll see you at school tomorrow.
           A: Good night...

          M: Okay, Good night.

      With that, I hung up the phone and went to my room.
I lay on my bed and start thinking of Magnus and Camille. I really like Magnus so he's one of my best friends. Why would I not like him? But the thing is, it bothers me that they're with Camille. I can't put it into words, but for some reason, when I think of them together, my skin feels like it's on fire. When I see them kissing or the way Magnus looks at Camille, I feel like boiling water is pouring down my head. Of course, Magnus is unaware of these feelings. Honestly, I don't know how I feel either. Am I really jealous of Magnus? Why would I be jealous of my friend over his girlfriend? Many of my friends have girlfriends or boyfriends, I don't feel like that for them. I fell asleep with these thoughts in my head.

      The next morning I woke up to the sound of my phone's alarm. It was almost six o'clock, and I got out of bed and immediately took a shower. After I was satisfied enough with the shower, I began to wait in front of the closet to choose my clothes.
       
         I'm not someone who cares so much about looks, but I still like to be careful with my clothes when I go to school. I guess this habit passed down from my sister. She is a total fashion icon, she manages to look perfect no matter what she wears. With these thoughts in my mind, I chose my clothes. I wore black tight jeans and a white T-shirt over it, looking out the window from the corner of my eye, thinking 'I'd better pack something thicker'. I put on my black leather jacket that was on the hook in my room. After putting on my white sneakers, I went downstairs satisfied enough with my look.
