Magnus' alarm went off at 5:00 A.M. Sharp. He woke and was surprised to find he didn't have a headache, but even more surprised to see his dad standing over his bed with his arms crossed and a scowl that would frighten any child in an instant. He looked up sheepishly at his father.

"Good morning, how did you sleep?" Magnus' heart was racing. He thought he was gonna be in huge trouble. But he really wasn't in trouble at all.

"I don't get you. I tell you serious information, then you leave for days without a word. I don't even know who you are anymore." His father looked so disappointed in him, like he had gotten arrested or stole from his store.

"Serious information? Look, I gotta get ready. I have to start making my way towards the school in about 45 minutes. Then I gotta go meet with the staff to talk about getting my grades up. I don't have time for you to lecture me about having a good time. I wasn't gone for days. I went out last night ya, but I was here before. You must not have seen me." Magnus got up, got dressed, and got out(he also brushed his teeth and ate before he left).

How dare he do that. I did nothing wrong! I do okay in school, and I rarely go out. And when I do, he's gonna have the audacity to to tell me he doesn't know me? Who does he think he is. Magnus was so upset that he didn't even know that his phone was ringing until the noise had stopped. He was too busy ranting in his head. He picked up his phone and saw that of course, Damon was the one who called. Magnus ignored the call and continued to drive. He had a whole 20 more minutes before he would be getting to school, he looked over at the clock and saw it was 5:44. His phone rang again, he turned thinking maybe his dad was gonna wanna talk to him about their talk earlier, but of course, it was Damon. Magnus picked up the phone contemplating whether or not he should answer the phone.

"Hello?" Magnus said, purposely putting the annoyance in his tone.

"Why didn't you show up! I waited for you for hours! You told me you would show up." He sounded mad, but hearing his voice oddly made Magnus feel a kinda way. He didn't understand it at first but he wanted him in this moment. He didn't understand where these feelings were coming from.

"Wanna meet after school? we meet up at our spot?" Magnus was actually... nervous?

"Oh, uhm... ya. Lets actually meet up at 9 or 10 because I gotta do something but afterwards, I'm all yours." Magnus had the biggest grin on his face when he said that. 

"Okay see you then. bye." Magnus hung up the phone.

 Magnus day dreamed all day about his meeting with Damon. He was rudely abrupted by an angry Jace coming up to him during lunch.

"Where. Is .He. I woke up in my bed this morning instead of back at that place with Alec! I need an answer now!" Magnus was in shock. The hottest guy in school was talking to him. But it wasn't anything he had ever expected.

"I'm sorry, but who are you talking about?" Magnus was still in shock but above all he didn't know who he was talking about, so how was he supposed to help him?

"Why is everyone acting like he doesn't exist, you saw him last night! WHERE IS HE." Magnus was starting to tear up, why was this guy yelling like a drunken man with all the nonsense he is talking about?!?

Before anyone even realized what was going on, Magnus had started to bolt. He heard people calling him. Even figured they were chasing him, so he sped up and continued to run all the to his car. He locked all the doors and drove off. He didn't even know where he was going but he just needed to be alone.

He looked at his clock and saw he had hours to go until he had to actually be somewhere so he went to the park. It was fairly close to the spot he would be meeting Damon at so he just sat there and was going over everything that had just went down between  him and Jace.

He ended up falling asleep on a bench and was woken up by a kid who was putting pine cones on the empty part of the bench.

"What are you doing that for?"  Magnus asked in his kid voice. He didn't really care but thought it would be rude to just get up and walk away.

"I a-am collecting t-these pine cones b-because m-my dad said that w-when you collect enough, t-then I would be a-able to have a p-pine cone fight with h-him. He loves p-pine cone f-fights. S-sorry if that was d-d-difficult to understand. I-it's a real problem I'm t-trying to work on. What are y-you doing h-here?"

Magnus looked at the girl, thinking about her question, why was he here? "I'm not sure.  came to get away from my life but I have to go meet up with someone in a dew hours," Magnus looked around, "where is your dad? You said you were trying to have a fight, pine cone one anyway. Plus it's getting kinda late for someone your age to be out here." Magnus was actually worried for this girl and he didn't understand why.

"M-my," the girl took a breath, " My... Dad... Died...a y-year ago." Magnus was at a loss of words. He felt bad for this girl because he couldn't even imagine what he would do without his dad in his life, Magnus thought, not knowing the irony in his words. 

"I'm sorry about that. I already know how often you get told that, but I am." Magnus looked at her as she got up smiled, and left. Gone now, as if she were never there.

Magnus started to get up and walk to his meeting place, on the way he looked down and saw a pine cone. He picked it up and put it in his pocket. And continued to walk away.
