Love triangles and Malec -part 1

The bell ran, vibrating Alec's desk but he made no effort to budge. "Long night!" Jace laughed, while shaking him awake.
"Urghhh," Alec groaned, slowly sitting up in his chair, "Mr lightwood!" Mr Right bellowed,  a look of horror surface on Alecs face. He hated confrontation, he was always the one lingering at that back, wanting to stay out of sight, never in the spotlight like Jace.
"I'm glad you enjoyed my lesson," The teacher  spat out sarcastically.
"The night is usually for sleeping in, Alec, not extra curriculum activities." the teacher mocked. Jace burst out laughing knowing too well what he meant. Alecs eyes widened. Was he that obvious? Did Magnus tell Jace? These thoughts swirled around Alecs mind as he plodded out embarrassed and cringing at the awkward predicament he was just put it.

"Babeeee" Magnus squealed embracing Alec with a big bear hug, just as he stepped out of the room "Aha babe please, people are staring," Alec blushed, becoming very self aware.
"Sorry, too much?" Magnus said, stepping back from Alec.
"Just a bit," Magnus didn't mean to be full on ,knowing that Alec was very shy and reserved . They were polar opposites really, Magnus thought , he didn't understand how it worked but he was so happy it did. It had only been a month or so since they got together after being friends since the start of high school. They were finally content and open; he didn't want to loose that. Alec notice a frown glaze over magnus' usually chipper face . "Hey, I didn't mean to upset you" Alec shot a empathetic look at Magnus and kissed him softly reassuring Magnus that he wasn't embarrassed of him even if he was wearing a bright pink tshirt with black spangly sequins spelling out 'bite me' .
The love Alec felt around Magnus, how comfortable and open he was , he envied it, admired it.

"Gross" Jace moaned, pushing passed them trying to to Clary and Simon. "You guys eating lunch with us?" Clary asked, motioning towards Magnus and Alec.
"Theres only one thing I want to eat for lunch!" Alec hissed , in a wave of confidence, and slithered his arms around magnus waist "Hmm interesting," Magnus smirked.

"Okay?" Clary said confused, not understanding the joke. She tilted her head like a lost puppy as she observed the two devouring each others lips in the corner.

"They're so cute" Izzy commented, sneaking up behind the rest of the group startling them. "why aren't you like that with clary?" Izzy teased, slapping simon playfully. Izzy craved to touch simon more and not in an innocent way . for years she's watched him, watch Clary, watch Jace. Only recently did simon confess his love to Clary to discover she felt the same. Izzy knew Clarys feelings weren't that genuine but forced for Simon; she did love simon but not in the way he wanted . It broke Izzy's heart to see them hand in hand because she knew she could give him the love Clary never could.
