Chapter 10:
"Alexander. You're early," Robert took his glasses off as Alec walked into his office. "We weren't supposed to be meeting for another hour."
"It's always better to be early than late right?" Alec asked. "Can't keep the general waiting."
"I'm just about finished here. Shall we head to the restaurant?" he asked standing up.
Alec nodded and waited as he packed up his things.
"Before we go, is there something you'd like to tell about this?" Robert said handing him a few pictures.
Alec frowned and took the pictures looking through them. They were of him and Magnus mostly. Leaving from school, going out, having lunch on the weekends.
"You're having me followed?" Alec sighed. "Of course you're having me followed."
"Alexander. You're a teacher; you should not be sleeping with your students. Do you know what sort of issue's this would break up? I understand that you're gay but-"
"I'm serious about him," Alec interrupted. "This isn't…it's not a passing thing."
"That's what you've said before," Robert told him. "How is this time any different?"
"It's different because it's over. It was a few times and then it was over."
Robert nodded. "Good. We can't have another incident like before."
"Yes sir."
Alec took a deep breath and rubbed his chest as he packed up his things and put them in his bag. He sat down at his desk and grabbed his inhaler taking a few deep inhales before setting it down.
"You okay?" Magnus asked setting down a bottle of water.
"I'm fine…" Alec answered. "What are you doing here? School's over for the day."
"I thought you wanted me to go with you to Max's school play. I even dressed all adult like," Magnus said putting his hands on his hips.
Alec glanced up and blinked. "You're not kidding."
Alec was a bit surprised seeing him in a pair of black jeans with a black sweater and a grey jacket. He leaned over and saw he traded in his bright pink toms for a pair of black loafers. Looking up even his hair was nice and neat.
"You got rid of the color in your hair," Alec pointed out.
"I don't think it'd be a good idea to show up at a school with hot pink high lights," Magnus replied. "And speaking up, if we don't hurry we're going to be late."
"Right right sorry," Alec finished packing up his things and stood up closing the classroom door behind him as they walked outside.
"You sure you're okay? You've been kinda spacy all day…" Magnus felt his forehead. "Are you getting sick?"
"I'm not getting sick," Alec shook his head and moved his hand away as he unlocked the car door and held it open for him. "It's just been a long day."
"Well try to relax okay?"
"Easier said than done."
Alec shut the car door after he got in and went to the driver's side and put his bag in the back seat as he got in.
"Alec you're late…" Max pouted a bit as he and Magnus walked over. "You said you'd be here at 5:00."
"Sorry buddy," Alec apologized. "But I brought Magnus as promised."
"Really? Where is he?" Max looked around.
"He went ahead and got our seats, but he'll see you after okay?"
"Okay…" Max nodded.
Alec smiled and fixed his costume and went back out taking the seat next to Magnus and laying his arm across the back of the chair.
"You came!" Max grinned and hugged Magnus. "Did you see? I did it just like we practiced."
"Very impressive," Magnus smiled hugging him back. "You're a natural up there."
"Go change and then we'll grab a bite to eat," Alec told him. "We'll wait for you here."
Max nodded and ran back behind the stage leaving the two alone amongst the other parents. Alec pulled Magnus a little closer by the hand.
"You sure you're not okay?" Magnus asked. "You tend to not hold my hand in public."
"Just been a long day. Is it okay?" Alec answered.
"I never object the hand holding," Magnus smiled and squeezed his hand.
"Okay. I'm ready," Max ran back over with his back pack. "Can we go to Taki's?"
"I don't see why not," Alec smiled.
"Are you finally going to tell me why you're so off in la-la land?" Magnus asked as Alec walked him to his door.
"I…I think we should stop seeing each other…" Alec answered.
"But you're finished at school…we don't have to keep it a secret…" Magnus frowned. "Why are you suddenly changing your mind?"
"I just think we're doing this for the wrong reasons…we should put some space between us. Make sure we're not doing this just because of a baby that….that might not even be mine. I don't want us to regret being together…"
"Oh…"
"I'm sorry-"
"No. I get it…" Magnus interrupted and smiled a bit. "All of this…it's overwhelming…it…it was fun though right? For the short time?"
Alec nodded and kissed his cheek before pulling away. "I'll see you in class on Monday…"
He took the stairs downside and stepped outside crossing his arms over his chest as he walked to the car and got in sitting in the seat for a few moments. He thought he felt good about this. He was doing it for Magnus. So why did he feel like a jackass?
