Alec
After talking with my dad, or rather my father talking at me, I went to my room. I admit I may hate my little brother for having the guts to come out to me right then and there and I might just hate him a little bit more because he just got me kicked out. It was bound to happen but I was expecting to have an apartment or something lined up for when it did. Now I have a week to leave. I don't know where to go. God where would Max go if they found out? Well I guess with me. Look at the trouble you've got me in little bro. What is Jace going to say? I know the girls will be on my side they're more open minded but Jace could swing either way.
I could go to Bane. He has his own apartment and probably wouldn't mind me being there. He did say to call him. I felt a blush run across my face remembering the wink the warlock gave me when he said it. But then again he doesn't seem like a dater, he seems like a guy who likes sex and only sex. He's had centuries to find someone so why would he even want me. I haven't even had sex. gay or otherwise. And if I do leave will I even see Jace? I hate that I'm still in love with him. He's my best friend. We're parabati. How will that even work if I leave. How will I be a shadowhunter without having access to the shadowhunter world. I'm going to have to talk to Maryse about that.
There was a knock at my door I sit up on my bed to see Max sticking his face in my room. "Alec?"
"I'm here."
He comes in and sits next to me. He reminds me of when he was younger and I would read him stories. I'm so sorry that I can't give him the happy ending he wants. "I've got to leave by the end of the week. You've got four more days with your older brother." I try and give him an encouraging smile but I fail miserably.
He looks up at me. It's the most scared I've seen my brother.
"Alec. Was it scary? Are you okay"
I mess up his hair. Way to ask the tough questions. "I'll be fine. And it was horrifying but you'll be fine I didn't spill the beans."
The comfort is apparent in his eyes. My poor younger brother.
"Where are you gonna go?"
"Max you don't have to worry about that I'll be fine."
"You can stay with Magnus he said that I could if I had to"
"I can't I don't know him like that. Plus it's a little bit different when you're older."
"What do you mean?"
"You'll get it when you're older now go to bed. I'll see you tomorrow."
We get up and I walk him to the door. Before leaving the room he turns around and hugs me. We aren't the touchiest of families so I'm still standing there in shock when he starts walking down the corridor.
"Alec?" I hear him say pulling me out of my shell shock.
"Yeah?"
"I'm gonna miss you"
"Me too little bro" I go back into my room closing the door behind me. I slide down it until my knees are at my shoulders and start to cry for the first time in years.
