He was a good kid and never broke the rules but he only ever had one friend who is still his friend in his later years, that friend was Lucifer Morningstar. When Alex was about 14 his house burned down, killing his parents and baby brother. He later joined Lucifer in trying to stand up to God, causing Alex to lose his wings.
