Unexpected Gift
Chapter 4
New York Institute (1:34am)
They started to leave the room when Lydia said something to them.
"Maryse wait..." said Lydia from behind them.
Maryse, Clary, Alec, Jace and Isabelle all turned around to look Lydia who came to a stop near them.
"What is it Lydia? I don't have time for anything I have to find my youngest son." said Maryse coldly as she looked Lydia straight in the eyes while talking.
Jace, Alec, Clary and Isabelle just kept silent as they watched their mother and Lydia Alec's one time fiance, but now friend talk.
"I know.. I heard you ask your children where their little brother is. I thought that I'd tell you that I saw Max hours ago at the party."said Lydia seriously as she looked at Maryse Lightwood former head of the New York institute and one time circle member during the first uprising.
Isabelle, Alec, Clary and Jace hoped that she saw where Max headed so they could look there first and hopefully find Max there safe and unhurt.
"You did... did you see where he went when you saw him?" asked Maryse voice cracking slightly and losing her cold demeanor at once.
Everyone looked at Lydia waiting for her to answer Maryse question.
Lydia sighed as she realized that she was going to have to break it to them that Magnus Bane was here and that he left abruptly after seeing Alec dancing happily with another guy that wasn't the High Warlock Of Brooklyn. She also have to tell them that he left crying and young Max Lightwood went after the Warlock.
The Lightwood's and Clary heard Lydia sigh as they waited for her to speak.
"He spotted Magnus Bane leaving upset not long after arriving to the party and Max followed him to see if he was alright I assumed." said Lydia truthfully with out having to go much in to detail about everything.
Lydia watched as they processed what she just told them about young Max.
"He followed that Warlock out of this room." said Maryse with clear disgust when she said the word Warlock in reference to Magnus Bane.
Isabelle, Clary, Jace and Alec's minds where racing as they wondered why the High Warlock of Brooklyn would be upset to the point where he'd leave a party just min's after arriving.
"Ignore mother. What do you mean Magnus was upset and Max followed him as he left?" asked Isabelle seriously hoping for Lydia to tell them what happened.
They watched as Lydia closed her eyes and sighed before opening them and looking at all of them.
"What I mean was that Magnus Bane saw your darling brother Alec here dancing with Draco Smith with a big smile on his face the whole time. I watched as tears filled Magnus eyes and then watched as they started falling before he turned and fled the room with Max following him." said Lydia seriously as she gave Alec a glare as she told them all that.
Isabelle. Alec and everyone else froze when she explained what she meant when she said that Magnus was upset and that Max followed him from the party last night.
Lydia stared and Jace, Clary, Isabelle and Maryse seeing them frozen in disbelief before letting her gaze lock on to the New Head of the New York Institute Alexander Lightwood. Who eyes were wide as saucers and mouth slightly open as he processed what she just said.
"Seriously?" said Jace pulling the others out of there frozen state by being the one braking the silence first after what Lydia just to them in utter disbelief at what she said.
Lydia and Isabelle and everyone else smirked when Clay smacked her boyfriend Jace on the back of his head for saying that.
"Quiet, Jace let the adults talk." said Clary a big smile on her face in she said that to her boyfriend as everyone but Maryse let a laugh lose at that.
"I'm an adult to Clary... I'm a year older then you and your 16." said Jace pouting because his girlfriend, Parabataiand everyone else laughing at him because of him being called a child by Clary.
Few seconds later everyone stopped laughing a Jace and got back to the topic of Max and Magnus.
"Seriously.. Alec how could you do that to Magnus... I told you days ago that Magnus was coming to the party..." said Isabelle glaring at her older brother for hurting and making a 400 odd year old powerful Warlock cry... before she punched Alec hard on the arm.
Everyone watched the two sibling who are standing next to each other.
"Ouch.. Izzy... and I'm sorry I forgot.. I've been so busy that my mind was going in a hundred different ways." said Alec truthfully and sincerely to his little sister as he gave he a small smile.
"I...believe that you forgot about him coming Alec,but seriously dancing with Draco Smith. Alec have you lost your mind you know that he seduces who he's out with and then has sex with them once and then he's on to the next one.. he's a one night stand kink of guy. He's that way but your not the kind of person who has one night stands with people.. you have to have some kind of feeling for them before you would even consider having sex with them I know you well big brother. Thank about what Magnus thought when he saw you dancing with Draco everyone knows his ways and that mostly includes Magnus brother." said Isabelle looking up to her big brothers face as she spoke from the heart.
Everyone waited for Alec's replay to what Isabelle just said to him.
"Yes, Izzy I know what kind of guy Draco is and he asked me to dance with him. You always are telling me to loosen up and have fun that's what I was doing. Besides I have no interest in Draco and he has a boyfriend who he just celebrated his 3 month anniversary with. I was smiling because he was telling me about trips he's been on with his boyfriend who name is Mike just so you know. Draco and his boyfriend are happy together so maybe he trying to leave his old ways behind and start new ways. You are so right Izzy I wouldn't just have sex with anyone. I would have to have some kind of feeling for them before I would have sex with them that's just the way I am. Besides why would Magnus be so upset that I dance with someone that's not him. He dances all the time with anything that breaths..so he shouldn't care who I dance with Izzy. And Izzy Magnus should know me well enough to know that I don't just sleep with I don't know a lot about." said Alec seriously to his sister as he looked down into her dark eyes as the others watched and listened to them.
Before anyone could say anything else they saw Robert Lightwood running over to them with something in his hands. They watched as he came to a stop next to his wife Maryse.
"Sorry, to interrupt what ever you guys are talking about but I just fond a fire message on Alexander's desk.
