INTRODUCTION

A/N: thank you so much for reading!! lowercase is intended. please enjoy :)

alec pov

art class was always the best class of the day, at least that was alec's opinion. he rushed to the class, getting out of algebra as quickly as possible.
alec had always been an art student, he was phenomenal. sure, he was picked on for it sometimes, but it was his greatest talent. he was often told by friends, that his soulmate must be lucky to have alec's drawings up and down their arm. alec lived for the day he met his soulmate, he didn't know who she was but she was going to be amazing. one thing that upset alec was the fact that his soulmate never drew anything back.
     did they think their drawings won't be good enough? were they just waiting? what if they didn't  want to be soulmates with alec? what if alec didn't have a soulmate? the thoughts raced through his head almost daily.
            "okay so today's assignment...", the teacher continued as alec didn't pay attention.

magnus pov
         magnus was being pushed up against the wall behind the school by his latest fling. he was tall had light hair, and he was good at this. his name was, dean? magnus wasn't sure at the moment, it didn't matter to him. this was routine at this point, a new victim nearly every week. magnus wasn't one for "love" or "soulmates", he was one for pleasure, temporary happiness. yes, it was frowned upon, but did magnus care? no.
       dean, magnus was sure that was his name now, was leaving marks along magnus' neck, causing him to cry out in pleasure. dean quickly put his hand over magnus' mouth to keep them from getting caught.
        "shhhhh", dean said at almost a whisper.
   "sorry, but if you weren't so seductive and good at this, it wouldn't happen", magnus smirked.
        the make out session lasted around 5 more minutes before that had to get back in the school and pretend it never happened. 
      magnus looked down at his hand to see that his 'soulmate' had painted a sunset on the back of his hand. magnus rolled his eyes, he hated this. magnus had to where long sleeves to hide all of the artwork and notes that his soulmate draws and writes. it's obnoxious in magnus' opinion, to continuously draw trying to get his attention. the art was impressive, to be completely honest but that was besides the point. he didn't understand why his soulmate cared so much. it was useless, magnus didn't need a soulmate.
   
alec pov
    
      alec suffered through the rest of the day, just wanting it to end.
       "i just don't understand why they don't respond!", alec complained to jace once again about his problems. jace just rolled his eyes, like he always did, he heard this almost every day.  
      "alec, like every time this comes up, maybe she...or he"

      "HE?", alec cut jace off, "WHAT DO YOU MEAN HE?"
       
         "alec calm down. you're drawing attention to us.", jace said calmly while looking at the curious people staring at them.
         "i'm just saying... i caught you staring earlier.", jace shrugged.

          alec blushed, jace caught him staring earlier?  who was he staring at earlier? alec did think guys were good looking but not in that way, or at least that's what he kept telling himself. 
           "at who?", alec asked jace. jace thought for a moment.
          "that guy that came into english late. oh what's his name?", jace stop for a second, " magnus bane! that's who it was. i've seen you staring at him before.   alec's blush deepened, he knew exactly who magnus. he was hot and intimidating in the best way, alec didn't want to admit it but he kinda liked him. but like everyone else, magnus has some flaws, his main one being the fact that he was the school 'fuckboy', but do you blame anyone for fucking him?
       so maybe alec did have a crush on him but he wanted to wait for his soulmate.
        "hey.", magnus walked up to alec.
        "h-hi", alec said with a small wave. what the fuck was that, he asked himself.
         "do you want to come talk to me for a sec?", magnus asked smirking. alec nodded and stood up.
         maybe he didn't need to wait for his soulmate.
