What are you hiding from me? w/ Alec Lightwood x Fem!Reader

Request: Hello! Could you do one where Alec is assigned a mission to take care of a demon that's causing trouble at the local mundane university. When Alec is there, he sees the mundane reader hiding in the library and she's having a breakdown due to stress. Alec comforts her and they become friends. But she grows suspicious of Alec because she's the only one that seems to notice him around since he uses his glamour when he's not with her. Before Alec can tell her the truth she gets kidnapped by the demon.

A/N: This is actually part 1 of "what are you hiding from me?", I got a bit carried away, so I decided to split this up and post a second part to it next week. I hope you like it so far

I was in the NYU library when it all happened. I was just casually studying for my upcoming exams when people started screaming and running into the library to hide away from something. I think in that moment instinct kicked in and I went to hide behind a shelf finding that I wasn't the only one with that idea. "What is going on?" I asked the girl next to me that cowered just like me, trying to get as small as possible to not get noticed. "A student is running amok around the building and people say he doesn't look like himself anymore" she whispered back to afraid to make loud noises. The moment she told me how serious the situation was I tensed up and started shaking slightly. It was like I was trapped inside my own head, my thoughts running wild, thinking of all my family and friends back home and how I have literally my whole life still in front of me not ready to lose it just yet. I thought of every possible scenario of how this could end and my mind simply went into overdrive, I started shaking even more and struggled to breath, I couldn't move my arms or legs, I just couldn't it was like my body wouldn't listen to me, as if it had a mind on its own. I was so focused on myself that I didn't notice what was going on around me. I didn't notice how the girl next to me told me it was over or how she left, I just stayed in the same position still struggling to breath. That was until someone kneeled down in front of me and started talking to me, trying to get my attention and calm me down and it actually helped, his voice somehow calmed me down and my breathing went slowly back to normal. When I was fully recovered I took a good look at my savior and whispered a quite 'Thank you' too afraid to talk out loud. He seemed tall and well build judging on how his jacket clung to his arms, he had dark hair and dazzling hazel eyes. "Are you okay?" the mysterious guy asked "Yeah, just peachy. Thank you..." "Alec" he filled in "Well then, thank you Alec, it's a pleasure to meet you. I am Y/N by the way" I told him, slowly going back to my normal self. "Nice to meet you too Y/N, I hope you are okay, but sadly I have to get going" like on clue the doors of the library sprung open and someone shouted Alec's name. With that Alec helped me of the ground, gave me a reassuring smile and left.

That day I was still wary about my surroundings, feeling that this wasn't everything that was going to happen, but as I finally fell asleep around midnight this feeling left my gut. Waking up the next morning, I started my day rather happily hoping to maybe meet Alec again, now that I know that the NYU has non douche attractive guys that notice me, not that I am not noticed by guys but I like to stay inside my group of friends. Sadly that day I haven't seen him around, but what was I thinking, I haven't noticed him before either.

Meanwhile at the Institute

"Alec, where are you going? I thought we wanted to train together." Izzy asked, hands on her hips hoping to get her big brother to tell her what's up. The whole day Alec didn't seem like himself, like he was somewhere else with his thoughts, unlike his usual self. Alec knew he couldn't lie to his sister, she would know, so he decided to be honest with her. "I'm going to check up on that mundane university, see if everything is back to normal again or if there are still demons running around" leaving things out wasn't lying Alec thought to himself, Izzy didn't have to know that he actually wanted to check upon Y/N to make sure she was still okay, he also wanted to see her again something about her made him want to get to know her. Izzy looked suspiciously at Alec "You want to check up on a mundane school? You despise mundanes, so why would you voluntarily check up on them?" "Because it's part of the job" Alec answered and left without another word the institute, not wanting to be further confronted with sister.

Back at NYU

I was sitting in the library again, but this time not alone my best friend bff/n was with me and we tried studying for the upcoming exams, but again I didn't made it to the studying part, because me and bff/n just couldn't stop talking, I told her everything that happened yesterday and she was just as exicted as me. It's not every day that a hot guy calms you down from a panic attack, even though she told me she never heard or seen that Alec guy around, not suprising me since there are hundreds of students visiting the NYU. "Maybe he will come by the library too, I mean you don't just introduce to each other and then never meet again, that just not how it works" Bff/n told me. I just agreed with her, I honestly wanted to see him again and get to know him, he seemed different and exciting, worth getting to know. While being in the middle of a conversation about our new found love for Captain America: Civil war, I abruptly stopped talking. Behind bff/n stood the one and only Alec with a small smile gracing his face. Bff/n looked at me like I was crazy, apparently to me being in trance and not forming any words that was until she looked behind her and saw him herself.
