Mirror of Erised

Alec's POV

'Emotions are nothing but a distraction, focus on your school work this year for your OWLS'

My mother advised me on the platform of 9 and 3/4.

I nodded my head at her, too annoyed to speak in case I retorted at her. My sister, Isabelle, who prefers to be called Izzy, rolled her eyes at mothers advice as she doesn't take it in at all. None of us do really, since she says it year after year after year until it becomes meaningless music to our ears.

I hear a voice in the distance...

Flashback (2nd Year Alec)

I can't believe it. Since that new girl started our year Jace has been totally infatuated with her he hasn't even noticed me at all. Which paints a ginormous red target on my back for Draco Malfoy. The snivellous blond rat.

I was taking a brisk walk along the corridors when those two grizzly grubs were walking in the opposite direction, towards me. One perched either side of me and grabbed me by my arms before I had a chance to get my wand out and pushed me into the nearest closet.

Ha,ha, I thought, because at the time I was questioning my sexuality.

*Clearing of the throat* I turned round and was met with none other than Draco Malfoy, the sneering 3rd Year bastard. Although part of me thought he was rather good looking, with the slick combed back hair and slightly round but cheekbone defined face; although it won't hurt to smile once every full moon.

He was stood, with his arms folded, a normal stand for him, then a comment,

'Well, well, well if it isn't the 2nd Years brightest brainbox, Alec Lightwood, although you musnt be that bright if you ended up in here' he sneered.

'Well if It weren't for your 2 bodyguards then I might not have ended up in this situation, and how do you actually know my name?' I observed, standing straight to show Malfoy that him and his cronies didn't scare me in the slightest.

'I overheard one of my second year slytherins fawn over you, oh Alec is the most handsome man in the room, pretty boys eyes are like a glorious hazel that I could get lost in for days, it's so sickly I nearly puked my guts out right there on the spot-'

'Get to the point, Malfoy, even your melancholy voice sends me into a deep slumber' I was starting to lose my patience.

' But Lightwood, wouldn't you like to hear what I did to this boy?' A whimper was circling the air near Malfoy.

'Stay down you pathetic-'

'Hey, don't call him pathetic' I growled.

'Oh Lightwood always so chivalrous, I wonder why they didn't put you in Gryffindor like your sister, and Jace'

'That's enough' I lifted my wand from inside my robes and said,

'Stupefy'

However I wasn't fast enough and Draco shouted,

'Crucio'
