#3.2 - Alec

The next morning, I my alarm clock began to ring around 9:30. I slammed my hand on the "off" button and groaned while turning on my back, streching my tired limps and opening my eyes before squeezing them shut again, thanks to the damn sun shining straight into my face. I yawned and sat up before swinging my legs over the edge of the bed, standing up and streching again.

I made my way towards the bathroom, stripping out of my night clothing and leaving it on the floor before stepping inside the shower. After I finished washing my body, I stepped out and grabbed a towel, drying my skin and hair before wrapping it around me and going back inside my room, collecting my clothes on the way back to put them away.

I grabbed some underwear, a ordinary black hoodie and some washed out skinny jeans out of my closet and put it on, then putting my hair into a messy bun and slipping some socks and vans on.

Checking the clock, it was already 10:30, so I went outside my room to go get Alec. I knocked on his door and a couple seconds later, he opened shirtless. Damn, that boy has an amazing body. That abs! Wait, what was I thinking?

"Hey (Y/N), give me a second, yeah?" he turned around and gestured for me to come in while getting his plain dark shirt and slipping it on his torso.
He grabbed his wallet before turning back to me and giving me an awkward smile. Was he nervous? I fought back the urge to raise a brow and ask him, instead I just asked if he was ready and he nodded, walking out with me.

We arrived at the Starbucks Coffee Shop and Alec held the door open for me. I raised my brow with an amused smirk and entered before he did, too. We lined up and had to wait for the other people to choose their orders, so I turned to Alec.

"What do you wanna drink, anyways?" I asked, Alec then turned towards the board with the different drinks. I almost bursted into a fit of laughter  when I saw his eyes finding the list of Frappuccinos. His brows furrowed and his nose just scrunched in such a weird but at the same time cute way that I just couldn't contain my giggles. He turned back towards me.

"What the hell is a Fra...Fra..." He turned his head back to the board.

"a Frappuccino?" I grinned brightly, it kinda makes me happy to finally show him some mundane stuff.
"I can show you because I will order one" I answered as it was our turn.

I ordered a (favorite Frappuccino) while Alec just chose a normal coffee. I really thought the Frappuccino thing was funny but when the batista asked Alec for his name to put on the cup, his reaction was just priceless and I couldn't help myself anymore.

"Why do you want to know that? Do you want to stalk me or what?" Alec asked with a raised brow and a stern expression. The kind of scared face of the barista just made everything better!

"Alec, they just want your name so they can write it on the cup and call you when the drink is ready" I laughed.

"Oh" I could see that his cheeks turned a bit rosy out of embarrassment. We both said our names and went to take a seat on a table near the counter so we would hear our names being called. As they did, Alec shot up and grabbed them before walking back and giving me the Frappuccino.

"So, its just ice shreds?" he asked. I smiled and held the straw towards him. He hesitated before taking a sip.

"Ah, damn. Thats cold!" he hissed.

"You don't say, Sherlock"

"What is Sherlock?"

"Forget it" I sighed but still had a smile on my lips.

We sat together, drinking and talking about random things like Izzy always stealing things from others, Clary getting on our nerves (I actually like her but I had no other ideas 😂) and some other stuff. But all of a sudden, Alec became kinda nervous, I knew because he started to rub his neck a lot.

"Is something wrong, Alec?" I asked, concern lacing my voice. He sighed, then took a deep breath and began to talk.

"Can I ask you something?"
"Of course, what is it?"
"How do you feel about me?"
I was taken aback by this sudden question.  To be honest, I had a crush on the tall Lightwood for quite a while but I always tried to push my feelings away because I didn't want things to become awkward between the two of us.

"W-Well..." I stuttered and fidgeted with my hands while trying to not look at him.

"Listen, I can't keep this to myself anymore..." he started and grabbed my hand, making me look at him.

"I fell for you, (Y/N). You are just what I want, a smart, independent, confident, funny girl who accepts my flaws. I can always count on you, you listen to me, even if I wouldn't do it myself. I know that I'm not easy, but if you're willing to give us a chance, I would like you to be my girlfriend" he stopped, lifting my head with his fingers under my chin. "I love you, (Y/N)."

My eyes had widened during his confession, but now, they held nothing than pure happiness and love for the boy infront of me. A smile spread across my face as I grabbed him by the neck and kissed him on his soft lips. Now, it was his turn to be surprised. But soon enough, he started to kiss me back, laying his hand onto my cheek. The kiss went on for quite a while before we parted from each other, catching our breaths.

"I love you too, Alexander. And yes, I would like to be your girlfriend"

He smiled and kissed me again. Then, he smirked and asked:

"Does that mean you share that Frappu- whatever its called with me?"

I bursted into a fit of laughter. What have I gotten myself into?
