Malec reunited?
Chapter 1
POV: Magnus
I wake up and hear someone knocking at my door. I put on some jeans and a T-shirt. I open the door and see Isabelle standing at my front door.
''Isabelle? What are you doing here? It's three in the morning for God's sake''
She walks into the hallway. ''I have something to ask you.''
''Wait, what!? And you couldn't just wait untill tomorrow, when people are actually awake.'' I say, a little annoyed.
''Sorry for interrupting your little beauty sleep, but this is about Alec. He acts so weird lately. He doesn't talk, sleep or eat anymore. I hate to see him like this.'' She sighs. ''I was just wondering if you guys could maybe talk. Figure things out and stuff.''
I feel a pang of guilt in my chest. No don't feel guilty, he lied to me. He did this to himself. I'm not responsible for this.
''I think it's already clear that all things have been said and done.'' I say sharply.
Still, I just can't help it. I love him and it feels like there is a hollow gab inside my heart. I hate to think that he does this to himself. He was confused and just wanted us to be happy. Why wouldn't I want the same thing?
I sigh and say ''Okay, I'll talk to him'' I grab my coat, put my shoes on and follow Isabelle to the Institute.
POV: Alec
I can't sleep, so I'm walking down the hallways of the Institute. I've got no real destination, I just wanted to walk and clear my head a little. I hear the elevator rumble and walk toward it. Who would enter the Institute at this time?
The elevator opens and I see Clary making out with a topless Jace. I feel like vomiting and I feel a little jealous at the same time. Clary springs away from Jace and looks a little embarrassed. Jace just looks at me with that stupid grin of his. ''Hey, big brother. Want to join us?'' Clary elbows him hard in the stomach.
I turn and leave without saying anything. I head toward my bedroom and my vision becomes blurry. I don't want to cry, but I let myself cry anyway and fall into sleep.
After a few moments I wake up to the sound of my bedroom door that is opening.
''Alec?''
My heart skips a beat and I can't breathe. Magnus.
What's he doing here? I rub my eyes. I don't want him to see me like this, all broken and stuff.
He walks toward the stool at sits facing me. I get up and sit on the edge of the bed.
We stare at each other in silence. Then he says ''Are you okay?''
I feel anger rising within me. ''What do you think? Of course I'm not. I feel like I've just been stabbed with a knife and all the life is leaking away from me. ''
''I'm sorry. I didn't meant to make you upset''
I feel a pang of guilt. I should be apologizing. I almost made him mortal for selfish reasons.
''No, don't apologize. I should apologize. I was insecure and selfish. I should have told you what was going on. I never should have lied. I should have trusted you and….'' I break into a sob. ''I hate myself for letting it come so far. I love you and I can't live without you. I shouldn't have risked what we had. And it's breaking me inside. I…-''
Magnus leans forward and I can't finish my words. He puts his hands on my cheek and kisses me. I kiss him back and the kisses become more urgent. I wrap my arms and around his neck and slip my fingers into his hair. He pulls away and says '' I missed you. I couldn't possible live without you. But promise me you'll never lie to me again, ever.''
"I promise''
Magnus grabs my back and rolls me over onto the bed. He is now on top of me and I look into his eyes. We kiss until there is no more distance between us. Untill all the lies are crushed between us and we have each other back, once again.
