A/N – Omg! How good was the finale!
I was in the training room, practising my fighting. I had been in there for almost three hours. When something was bothering I or something was constantly on my mind. Training always helped. It made me forget. But this time, it wasn't working. I left things with Magnus, terribly. I had quite a few missed calls and texts from him. But I ignored them. I felt like an idiot, just walking out like that. I should have handled it better. I did honestly think I had blown it. Once I was finished in the training room, I got showered and changed. I then headed to the work room. Isabelle was already there. Soon as I entered, her red lips grinned.
"So? How did it go?" She whispered.
"It didn't" my eyes shifted away.
"What? Why? What happened?" She gave me a look, like it was my fault. Which it was.
"I freaked out" I admitted.
"I told you not to think too much"
"It wasn't that. He's way more experienced than me. I mean, what if I did something wrong?"
Isabelle couldn't help but smile. "Alec, it doesn't matter if he's more experienced or not. What matters is that you both are ready to take this next step. Stop being in your head too much. It will be great"
"I think I've already screwed up anyways"
"Then fix it!" My sister demanded.
I knew I overreacted. I wanted to go over to his and apologise. But would he even listen now? Since last night I have been ignoring him. Had it finished before it even started?
I was just about to call Magnus when I got put on a hunt with Jace. I felt like I hadn't seen him in weeks. Something was bothering him and I couldn't help wonder if it was me he had the problem with.
The walk to the mission. Was quiet. Normally Jace would be rambling on about something. But that night, nada. Every time we had done a mission together, we always worked as a team. But this time was different. Every order I gave, Jace did the opposite. It was like he was on his own and I wasn't even there. It really pissed me off. After I killed the demon. Jace walked in front of me. Speeding, like he wanted away from me.
"Are you going to tell me what the hell is going on?" I shouted angrily from behind.
"Nothing!" He snapped back.
I managed to catch up with him. I placed my hand on his shoulder and turned him around "That's bull. What's going on, Jace?"
"Just drop it Alec"
"Is it because, of who I am?" I had to ask.
He scrunched up his face. "What? No! I don't care that your gay, Alec. I told you that"
"Then what is it?" I begged.
"It's who you're dating"
"What's wrong with Magnus?" I suddenly felt protective of the warlock.
Jace's face was now soft. "Nothing is wrong with him. It's just. For a fling it's been going on for a while now"
"It's more than a fling, Jace" I stated.
"Alec, all I want is for you to be happy, I love you, and you're my brother. I just don't think being serious with a warlock, is the best thing to do right now. Your hunting is already lacking. This is the first time you've out in a hunt in weeks. All you do now is either working at the institute or going on around the world dates"
I understood now, I knew exactly what was bothering him now. "I miss hanging out with you too"
Jace smiled. "You know me way too well. Must be a parabatai thing"
"No, it's a brother thing"
We both shared a hug and headed back home. I had never seen that side of Jace before. He was always so confident. But I wasn't lying. I had missed him. We did everything together. I guess it was hard juggling work, a relationship and a best friend. I knew you couldn't make everyone happy. But I was determined to.
I decided not to go back with Jace. I made a pit stop first. Magnus' apartment. As I knocked on the door. I began to feel nervous. Butterflies in my stomach. As Magnus opened the door and stood at the door frame. I suddenly felt calm.
"Well hello, Alexander" Magnus greeted. His eyes staring at the floor.
"Can I come in?"
He didn't answer. He moved away from the door to let me in. I headed to the main room. I stood there waiting for Magnus to join me. We walked over to the bar and poured him a drink.
"What do I owe this?" Magnus spoke.
"Look, I'm sorry about last night. I shouldn't have ran off like that"
"It's ok"
"No it's not" I walk towards him. Our bodies' only feet away from each other. "I don't care about your past, Magnus. I care about you and how you make me feel"
"You're not the only one that feels vulnerable"
"I know" I took his hand and help it in mines. "I want this, I do. I want you"
I leaned in and my lips touched his. My mouth danced with his. The kiss grew longer and passion took over. "I want us to take the next step"
"Are you sure?" Magnus asked.
I smiled "Yes! I'm sure"
We kissed again, giggling in-between. Like we were a bunch of teenagers. The warlock grabbed my hand and led me to his bedroom. I didn't know what the future would hold for us but all I knew at that moment. I wanted him. All of him.
