Chapter Two: Black and Blue
Disclaimer: Not Mine
POV: Magnus
I walked out to say good bye to Izzy when I saw a guy with black hair, he looked strangely familiar. "A bit tense are we darling?" I asked him and his shoulders went even more tense.
"Uh no" the boy mumbled and I felt my stomach flatter; this guy was so adorable! "I've just had a bad day". I looked to Camille and saw that she had a huge smirk on her face. She looked up at me; gestured to the boy and winked. I couldn't help but laugh, he jerked his head up and I found myself staring into eyes as blue as the ocean. Izzy tapped me and mouthed 'He likes you', and for some reason I laughed. The boy looked sharply to Izzy and stormed away yelling something to her.
"Poor, poor Alec" Camille said "Doesn't he know that black hair and blue eyes are your weakness?" I glared at her and she winked at me again.
"Oh, come on! There's chemistry there, don't deny it" Izzy said and I gave her a death stare.
"Izzy's right ya know" Camille said "You should date him" I gave her a look that said 'Not happening' and started walking back to the building but Izzy grabbed my hand.
"Please, he needs someone like you to break out of his shell" she said "Besides he's had a crush on you ever since high school" she told me and I raised my eyebrows.
"And you know this how?" I asked distracted, thinking about the blue-eyed beauty.
"Because he's my brother" she said "and I know you like him", I rolled my eyes at her which made her laugh. "I've seen you staring at him when he comes to pick me up" she said smirking and I couldn't help but blush.
"You do like him!!" Camille squealed and a couple walking pass gave me and Camille a weird look. "You never blush!!".
"Shut up Camille" I hissed and retched my hand away from Izzy's grip, then I stormed inside scaring a few of my workers but I wasn't in the mood to care.
----------------------------------------Two Hours later---------------------------------------
I was sitting in my office trying to pay attention to what was on the computer screen but what Camille and Izzy had said was stuck in my mind. What if I did like this 'Alec' guy? I hadn't really liked anyone in a while, all my relationships have just been drinks and then sex but they never went past the first date.
"Thinking about Alec, are we?" asked a sly voice from the door way, I looked up to see a smirking Camille.
"No" I lied "I was trying to think of how to respond to this email" I added quickly, I knew straight away from the look on her face that she didn't believe me. Sighing, I gestured to a seat to the side of me and she bounced onto it.
"Now tell me what you're thinking" I opened my mouth to lie again but she interrupted me "And don't bother telling me that there's nothing on your mind because I can already tell that there is".
"Fine" I sighed and she looked at me unexpectedly "I don't know if I like this guy or not. I mean he's hot but I don't have the desire to jump his bones like I do with the others I meet" I confessed.
"Well maybe that's a good thing" Camille said and I looked at her with a questioning look "Remember that Woolsey guy that you liked?" she asked and I nodded "Well as soon as you two slept together, he left and you never got to tell him how you felt". I looked down to my lap in thought, the feeling of betrayal rushing back again. Camille grabbed my chin and tilted my face to look to her "Maybe you should call him up and just give him a chance" she suggested gently.
"I think you're right" I admitted to her after a minute of thinking "I'm just scared to get too close to anyone because it seems like everyone I do get really close to, well not counting you, Roger, Will, Tessa and James; whenever I get close to someone they leave" I sighed "I can't go through that again".
"I know, Maggie" Camille said, her voice gentle "But just think about it okay? You can't let your fear run your life, you can beat it" she said before giving my shoulder a confronting squeeze and leaving. I sat there for the next hour just thinking before I got up and left to get a coffee. As soon as I stepped into Java Jones, I felt myself get hit to the ground along with another person.
I got up and was getting ready to say sorry but the words stuck in my thought when I saw who it was I'd banged into, Alec; the black haired and blue eyed wonder that I hadn't been able to get out of my head.
"Sorry" he mumbled and raced out the door. 'Forget about the coffee' my mind told me 'Go get the boy' So I did just that.
"Alec!" I called and he spun around; surprise and slight nervousness clear on his face "I want to talk to you" I said walking up to him. He didn't say anything at first; just gave me a wary look.
"About what?" he asked "Izzy's isn't causing trouble is she?" I shook my head and Alec gave me a curious look.
"I was wondering if you'd like to get together sometime for a coffee or something" I asked nervously; I was never nervous when asking someone out!
"Like a date?" Alec asked, a small smile lingering on his face.
"Yes, as a date" I confirmed and he looked up at me nervously but happy at the same time.
"Then yes" he replied, a slight smile on his face "I will go on a date with you, Magnus Bane", I started smiling from ear to ear as I handed him a card with my number on it.
"Magnificent!" I grinned "Text me when you're free, Blue eyes. Or even better, call" I winked.
"Ye-yeah, I-I'll do th-that" Alec stuttered, his face going red as a tomato "I'll see you around, Magnus" I nodded, a large smile still on my face and Alec walked off leaving me staring after him.
