Alec Lightwood Imagines

The Best Friends With Alec Rune

Alec absent minded rubbed at the faded scar that claimed his chest, you'd stolen your older brothers Stele and woken Alec who had been dozing under a tree, so you could doodle on his chest. The pair of you had been too young to realised they would scar or drawing with a Stele exhausted the rune receiver if they weren't strong enough to wear them.

Most of the fake Runes had been covered with new, real runes, but the one he refused to cover was something you'd called the 'Best Friends With Alec Rune' after a few days he pointed out that you would need one to and spent entire day memorising how to draw the rune ready for the next time he saw you.

Whenever he was nervous or doubting himself he found his hand traveling up to rub the rune, the thought of it comforting, despite the fact that you hadn't seen him since you were both children. He glanced toward the doors as the new Shadowhunter walked in, he'd been told they would be moving in today, they completely missed him as they hurried over to Hodge who nodded and mumbled something to them while pointing in Alec's direction.

His eyes fell on your wrist and he couldn't help but smile as your sleeve revealed a familiar mark. He wondered how long it would take for you to realise who he was, as Izzy hurriedly showed you to your room, leaving the oldest Lightwood to grin to himself as he turned back to his work.

******************************************

You headed to the training room, having grown tired of waiting for a mission to be thrown your way, a lone figure stood at the end of the room practising when you entered, turning to see who had joined them.

"Hi, (Y/N)." The man smiled at you and nodded at him, noticing a mark on his chest as he left the room making you reach out and grab his arm.

"Alec?" You hummed nervously.

He turned and grinned at you feeling like a little kid when your face brightened top the familiar dazzling smile that often plagued his thoughts, he almost couldn't believe you where there in front of him, after spending so long wondering about your life so far.

"How have you been?" Alec asked quietly.

"Oh, um ok... you're running this place now." You chuckled nervously. He nodded and waited for you to say something else which led to awkward silence.

The silence didn't last as you both burst into laughter causing several people to look at Alec as if he'd lost his mind. He followed you to your rooms and said goodbye, hesitating as you shut your door.

"Hey you want to go on a mission with me and Jace?" He hummed thoughtfully.

"Jace... Wayland?" You asked curiously. He nodded all be it a little jealously. "Sure I've heard he's impressive and it'll be cool to see you in action." You said happily.

"Cool I'll see you tonight and I'll train with you tomorrow." He waved and jogged happily to his room. Both of you grinning like fools as you headed to your beds.
