Simon was unsure what to say. Well, it's not like it wasn't something he had thought might happen. He tried to ask Jace to tag along, just so something like this wouldn't happen.
"Fuck! Jace, why? I told you! Seriously, like fuck! I told you this would happen!" Simon screamed, tears openly running over his cheeks.
Jace sat at the edge of the bed, head in his hands. A warrior like him didn't want to show how he cried. Simon jumped off the bed, and knelt in front of Jace. Quickly, he ripped the hands away from his face.
"You're crying? Why are you crying? You're not the one who was just betrayed!"
Simon calmed himself a bit, as Jace started crying harder. Simon stopped yelling, and simply whispered.
"Why?"
Jace looked up, his face completely tear-stained. "I didn't mean for this to happen. And, now, I'm going to have to lose you over it."
Simon held Jace's hands down, and held his forehead against Jace's. He looked deep into his eyes, and let more tears run down his own face as well.
"Even though I probably should leave, I can't. Neither of us are ready to lose this. But, please, don't do this to me again, okay? Please?"
Jace nodded gently, and Simon kissed him once tenderly.
After they could stop crying, they fell onto the bed. Jace yanked Simon into a tight embrace from behind, and wouldn't let loose for the world. "I won't lose you."
Meanwhile…
"It makes sense." Magnus said in a monotone voice. He lay across from Alec carefully, just trying to keep calm.
"I didn't mean for it to happen," Alec said in a dull repentance.
Magnus rolled over, refusing to face Alec as the tears streamed down his face. "But, it did."
Alec, in a cautious fashion, motioned to pull Magnus into his arms. Magnus was hesitant, but let himself be pulled in. "You listen, okay? I am not so stupid. It hurt me to wake up beside someone that wasn't you more than I could've imagined. Every day without you is terrible, really. I can't believe what happened last night anymore than you can."
Magnus squinted his eyes shut. "But, that's just it. I saw it coming, and I didn't bother to make sure it wasn't really going to happen."
Alec sighed, resorting to gently caressing the side of the warlock. "Please. I know you don't want to stay, but please don't leave me."
Magnus turned around, a weakly amused smile passing on his features. "I'm hurt, but I don't intend to make myself hurt more. Every day without you is equally as painful, Alexander. Over time, this can be forgiven. Just, it can't keep happening. Okay?"
Alec nodded, and buried his face into Magnus's shoulder
