Chapter 4: Alec's Internal Panic
Once Izzy dragged Alec to go shopping with her he thought it couldn't get worse, but that of course was wrong. Once Izzy started to talk to a short red head, he wanted to smash his head into the nearest shelf. Then the girl's -Clary from what he gathered- friend showed up, he nearly choked on air.
He was tall, taller then him by an inch or two, had carmel colored skin, and green and yellow cat like eyes. In short, the man of his dreams. And then he mentioned his girlfriend. Faith is a bit of a bitch, don't you think?
Finally after an agonizing hour of his mind wandering to where he doesn't want it to go, Izzy decides it's time to leave.
Once they get home he shoves the bags they Izzy gave him on the counter, ran to his room and flopped on his bed. No one in his family knows he's gay except his sister, which was hard to explain because she caught him making out with a guy when it happened.
Izzy came bouncing in his room, "Wasn't the guy cute?" she asked smugly Alec just groaned, grab a pillow and shoved it in his face.
"Aw, come on! Your no fun!" Alec could tell she was pouting "Why can't we talk about boys?" he removed the pillow from his face and looked at his sister like she was crazy "He said that he had a girlfriend, what is there to talk about?"
Izzy gave him a look "Ever herd of bisexuality?" Izzy asked him like she talked to him when he was sleep deprived "He can like guys and girls." Which was filled with sarcasm and love, to Izzy at least.
Izzy registered her words then her face lit up with joy and excitement "You do think he's cute! Oh My God! My big brother has a crush!" she squealed
Jace, of course, thought that was the best time to come in Alec's room, as dramatically has he could of course. "He has a what? What's her name? Is she hot?" of course 'Is she hot' one of his first questions. Izzy smirked at Jace and said "It isn't someone of the female gender."
Jace blinked a few times before a wide smile took over his face, and you got a peek of his chipped tooth "Knew it. Same questions apply though." Alec groaned and tossed his head back into the bed. Izzy decided she like this topic of conversation and told Jace his 'crushes' name
"Magnus, and I would like to think so." Alec picked up his head and glared at his sister "Did I say either of you could come into my room?" when neither of them answered Alec continued "That's right, now get out."
Izzy laughed and got out of his room, and Jace closely followed, but at the last moment turned around "I'm sure mom won't mind, but it's dad I'm worried about" Alec nods and Jace shuts the door with a smile.
That did it, Alec was going to tell his family at dinner, or at least try to. With that p world over and tried to take a nap
--(TvT) time skip--
Alec was woken up for dinner, and came downstairs towards the dining room. Before he entered he took a deep breath to prepare himself.
He walked in, and sat down with his family and looked to see what everyone was doing. His mom was giving Jace the potatoes, Izzy was thinking rather hard about something, most likely the dress she was making, and his father was texting on his phone. When Alec looked at his father he felt the color leaking out of his face.
Izzy looked over to him, saw this and voiced her concern "You good Alec? You're looking pale." That caught everyone's attention. "Yes, you are looking quite pale, are you okay darling?" his mother asked him.
Alec mumbled under his breath "I have to tell you guys something…" His father looked at him then said "Stop mumbling, we've talked about this. Speak with power." Then he sighed "What do you have to tell us?"
Alec looked over to where Izzy was sitting, her eyes were wide; probably guessing were this was going, but she still ushered him on.
Alec looked up at his family and repeated in his head 'There my family, they'll still love me, it'll just be a little different.' Alec then gathered all of his courage, looked his mom in the eyes and said "I'm gay."
His mother just stared at him, blinking, Jace had his infamous smirk, but it is as filled with love and care, Izzy was close to tears, and was smiling with so much emotion it almost made Alec start to cry too, Max looked at him like he was confused, which he probably was then there was his father.
His father looked at him with cold, unloving eyes. His mouth was set in a tense line. He was silent for a little while then said "Get out." Maryse looked at her husband like he was crazy. Alec obviously hoped for a better answer, slowly got out of his chair with his head down, and walked towards the door out of the dining room, and headed for the front door.
Alec walked around for a while keeping himself together, but he could only last so long. When he made it to the park, he broke down, let the dam crash down.
He stopped underneath a tree and slowly slide down, hiding his face in his hands. He stayed there for a while until he heard a voice "Alec? You okay?" he recognized that voice, Clary, he thinks.
He slowly lifted his head, and saw Clary and a guy with brown hair, brown eyes, thick rimmed glasses, and a tee-shirt that said 'You thought I was gone? I have three lives'.
Alec schooled his expression, but he could tell he still had signs of crying, "Just fuckin' peachy." He said, Clary looked at him with sad eyes "What happened?" she asked tensely, not wanting to push him.
Alec sighed and said "My dad kicked me out of the house." Clary thought for a moment then said "How about you come with me, and you can crash with me for a little bit." She smiled warmly.
Alec thought for a moment then shrugged, it's easier then staying out here all night, or trying to convince his father to let him back in the house.
The guy Clary was with held out his hand, Alec grabbed it and pulled himself up. "Ready?" Clary said. Alec nodded, then they set on there way to Clary's apartment.
That made me a little sad to write. But thats the reality of it, not everyone is accepting, which kind of sucks but yeah.
Also, sorry for all of the cursing in this chapter, it just fit
Thats it for now, Toodles!
