" Magnus, why don't you ever talk about you parents?" Magnus tore his gaze away from the t.v. Over to Alec, who was sitting thoughtful next to him.
" Because it's painful, that's why." Magnus narrowed his eyes, playfully, and asked,
" Why?" Alec blushed, as Alec always does.
" I don't know, I just wanted to know." The blush grew darker. Magnus smiled, sadly.
" What was it like when they both died?" Alec asked quietly. Magnus thought back and shivered.
" I was sent to an orphanage and I was beaten up a lot." Magnus sighed remembering what else happened in the dark.
" I used to think my parents were still alive, they were just dropping me off, to pick me up later." Alec cuddled up against Magnus.
" And when the little kids used to get scared, I would sing to them." Alec perked up,
" You could...can sing?" Magnus laughed whole heatedly,
" Yes, bunny, yes I can." Alec tilted his head,
" What would you sing?" Magnus had known that was coming, so he started,
" Maybe far away,
or maybe real near by."
" He maybe pouring her coffee,
She may be straightening his tie." Magnus tilted his head onto Alec's
" Maybe in a house
all hidden by a hill
she's sitten playin' piano
he's sitten' payin' a bill." Magus stood up, throwing up his hands,
" Bet'cha their young
bet'cha their smart!
Bet they they collect things like ashtray and art,
Bet'cha their good," Magnus shrugged,
" Why shouldn't they be?" Magnus sat sown with a sigh,
" Their one mistake was giving up me...!" Magnus put his arma round Alec,
" So Maybe now its time
and maybe when I wake,
They'll be calling me baby,
Maybe." Magnus looked down at Alec, only to realize Alec was asleep. Alec was curled agianst Magnus. Magnus sighed.
" Bet'cha he reads
Bet'cha she sews,
Maybe she's made me a closet if clothes," Magnus frowned,
" Maybe their strict,
as straight as a line," Magnus sighed, kissing Alec's head softly,
" Don't really care,
as long as their mine."
" So, maybe now this prayer's
the last one of its kind," Magnus stood and went over to the window, looking out at the stars,
" Won't you please come get your baby," Magnus felt a single tear run out of his green cat like eye, and run down his face,
" Maybe."
