You Broke My Shell
Alec was almost always misjudged. He was shy so people assumed he was anti-social. He was quiet so he was weak. And of course, he was a Lightwood so he was scheming and proud. No one had ever looked past the surface, past assuming. So you would imagine his surprise when Magnus Bane, sparkly and loud, took it on himself to look beyond what people saw. To see who he really was.
No one had ever seen Alec's smile wider or brighter.
