Alec stormed out from Magnus' apartment after the incident happened. When he was out he quickly released a heavy sigh, allowing the gentle breeze of the wind to seep through his body to calm his breathing and to gather his thoughts.
Did I really just did that? Why did I said that?Those questions were running around on Alec's head as the realization dawned on him. He didn't know what to think anymore. He was so happy that Magnus felt the same way for him. As much as the thought of being Magnus was exciting, it was also terrifying. He could never imagine a life with Magnus, as a couple. What if they wouldn't work? They would break up and then he would lose his best friend. Not only he would lose his best friend but he would also gave Eric up for nothing.
Ah. Eric Alec flinched as he thought of his boyfriend. This was another major issue he had to face. He wondered how Eric would react if he left him for Magnus. He bet it would be in a total disaster. And, what Magnus said about Eric, he didn't believe it one bit. Eric would never do that. He was too nice. It was impossible to even think about.
Ring Ring Ring.
The ringing of his phone startled him and interrupted him from his thoughts. He picked out the phone from his pocket and stared at the screen to know who was calling him. Eric.
He pressed the call button to answer his call.
''Hi, I'm on my way home. Don't worry about it.'' Alec said before Eric could ask him anything, particularly about his whereabouts.
''Oh... That was actually what I was calling you for. See you soon. Love you!''
''See you.'' Alec replied as he hung up the phone immediately. Now he was gonna figure something out... He didn't even bother saying 'I love you' back to Eric...
Oh shit!
He was taking the steps slowly as he go nearer and nearer to their apartment. He was kind of afraid to go and face Eric. He knew Eric would suspect that he had gone to Magnus. He did smelled like Magnus.
When he finally reached the last step he opened the door inside. When the door was opened, Church immediately stumbled her way through the door to get out. But luckily Alec caught her before she could sneak out.
''What have I told you about running away?'' Alec asked his cat as he carried her and placed her on her nest.
''You can't go out running around when you're gonna have babies.'' Church finally settled down and Alec stood up to go to his bedroom to change his clothes. But what he found from the bed was kind of shocking.
Eric was lying on the bed, completely naked. He had roses beside him next to a bucket where the wine and several bottles were place. Alec noticed he was also holding a little black box on his hand he was wearing a big smile on his lips.
''Hello Alec.'' Eric greeted him as he stood from the bed and started to walk towards him.
''What are you doing?'' Alec asked him while Eric was moving closer and closer on him.
"I would like to ask you something.'' Eric said and gave the little box to Alec. Alec frowned in confusion as he looked up at Eric questioningly. Eric just nodded then Alec decided to take it and opened it.
''What the hell?'' Alec asked as he took in the little ring on the box. The ring was a Golden one with red stripes wrapped around it. Suddenly, everything seemed to make pieces together. The rose, the wines, Eric's big smile, and the little box he was holding. He was proposing to him...
''I love you. I'm sorry for everything. But I did that just because I love you so much. And you proved me that you loved me too and I want to spend the rest of my life with you. You are the best thing that's ever happened to me. So... Will you marry me?'' Eric proposed wearing a sweet smile on his lips. Alec just stared at him with big, wide eyes. ''What do you say babe?''
''I kissed Magnus.'' Alec blurted out instead of answering his question. He found himself not being able to lie on Eric again. He cheated him again and he couldn't bear lying to him again. Not when his boyfriend was asking his hand for a lifetime.
Eric frowned and covered himself with the sheets. Just then the sweet smile on his face had disappeared and was replace with pure anger and hatred written on his face. He was now on his knees as he grabbed and pulled his own hair. He was gasping for breath and was looking everywhere else but Alec.
Alec took a few steps closer to Eric as he placed the ring on the bed and touched Eric's shoulder in an attempt to calm him.
''Eric. Are you alright?'' Alec asked as he was carefully reading every move that Eric made.
''What do you think!?'' Eric yelled angrily as he threw the bucket with the wine to the wall. The impact was so hard that made the bucket cracked and the bottles broke into shards of pieces. Alec was startled and took a few steps back as he let go Eric. 'How would you feel when the man you love the most is making out with another man!? When you have been betrayed twice!''
Eric was now squeezing the rose on his fist so hard that it bleed as the spikes pierced through his flesh.
''Eric please let go of the rose.'' Alec said to him gently as he was staring on his bleeding hand.
''You have nothing else to say to me!? You cheated on me! Fucking twice! Do you love me at all!? Have you even loved me?!'' He yelled and threw the rose away on the floor.
''I'm sorry. Of course I love you.'' Alec told him. It was true, he did love him. But not as much as it was before ''How did you know about the first time?''
''Do you really think I'm that fucking stupid!? You were on business trips all the fucking time and when you came back you had marks on you! And you always look so fucking happy! You didn't even feel a slightest guilt about it!'' Eric finally outbursts as tears were falling on his eyes. ''You said you were on a car accident when you were on the hospital. I knew what happened to you. You are my boyfriend, I live with you. Don't you think they wouldn't tell me anything about this?!''
Alec hadn't even thought about that. God how stupid he was. Of course they would tell his boyfriend.
A moment of silence reigned between them when Eric suddenly stood up and walked towards him. Before Alec could realize what was happening, he grabbed him by the collar and found himself being harshly slammed into the wall.
''W-What are y-you doing?'' Alec couldn't help but stammered as he felt fright was slowly creeping in his body. He wanted Eric to let go of him as this particular scene was bringing up bad memories he buried a long time ago. He was really afraid he would ended up in a total wreck like what happened the day before he was hospitalized. Maybe what Magnus told him was true. Something had snapped inside his head to become this violent and very possessive.
''I'm teaching you a lesson you brat. You think you can just go around and hurt people's feelings, huh?!'' He spat against Alec's face as he tightened his grip around his neck. ''I'm gonna show you what happens if you ever do that to me again!'' Then Eric punched right to his face so hard that made Alec fell on the floor. Alec was holding his nose as he groaned in pain and looked up to Eric. But the look on Eric's face tells him that he was still so furious. And he bet he wouldn't hesitate to do it again.
''I-I'm sorry.'' Alec whispered to him as he bowed his head avoiding Eric's fuming rage.''I-I didn't mean to do that...''
Eric didn't said anything as he slowly walked out the door. Alec only heard his fading footsteps. He didn't dare to move, until he heard the door closed.
He sat on the floor for a while as he tried to calm himself and let the whole situation sunk into his mind. After a few moments only then did he allowed himself to cry as he stood up and grabbed his keys and jacket. He couldn't believe this was how his life would turn out. A total mess. With him suffering a harsh blow from his boyfriend.
Just as he was walking towards the door he noticed Church was looking at him in her nest. In that instant he knew he had to take the cat with him. He put her collar around her neck as he took Church and took his food bag and feeding bowl with him.
When he was outside he took out his car keys and opened the door. He placed Church on his car as well as everything he took and started to drive. He really didn't know where he would go now. He just let his heart lead the way. And before he knew it he was next to his sister's house. He was greeted by a sight of Izzy outside her apartment and apparently, Isabelle noticed his presence and waved happily at him.
Alec got out of the car and carried Church with him as he walked towards his sister. As he got closer to Isabelle's smile had faded as she stared at her brother's swollen eyes and bruised face.
''Have you been crying?'' Isabelle asked worriedly as her brother came closer.
Alec tuned around and wiped away a few tears and turned back to Isabelle.' 'No.''
''Don't lie to me!'' She snapped. ''And why is your face red?''
''Let's go inside first, please? Can you take her? I'll get her some food from my car.'' Alec pleaded as he gave Church to Isabelle and went to his car.
After he got Church's food, Alec went back inside his sister's house and took the ambiance environment engulfing him. It was beautiful like always and it smelled like parfyme.
He put down Church's food and when the cat saw it, she started to struggle in Izzy's arms until Izzy let her go. She went straight to her food and started to eat like a pig.
''What is up with him?'' Izzy asked as she watched the cat devouring her food greedily, like a starved beast.
''It's a she...'' Alec sighed.'
'Yeah, it was a surprise to me too. She will be having kittens soon. Either today or tomorrow. Not sure yet.'' Alec said as he and Izzy went to sit on her couch. And started to talk.
''Do you wanna tell me why you are crying?'' She asked.
''No.''
''Yes!''
''No!''
''Tell me or I'll make you tell me.'' She glared playfully and raised her fist in a playful warning. But the gesture made Alec flinched just in time Isabelle noticed his negative reaction.' 'What's going on Alexander? Did you get into a fight? Your face is red and and you are crying...''
''I had a little fight with Eric...'' Alec finally confessed.
''He did that to you!?'' Isabelle yelled angrily. Isabelle was the nicest and friendliest person alive and she was always happy. But when she got angry or frustrated she could be really scary. It was as if she's turning into a demon. Her eyes got bigger as her mouth was pressed into a tight line and gritted her teeth as her jaw was clenched tightly.
''Yes...''
''He is so dead! I'm gonna fuckin kill him! I'm gonna bury his body alive and let him suffocate in the depths of hell!'' She cursed mostly to herself.
''Stop it. I deserved it...''
''What?''
''I kissed Magnus... He got angry...'' Alec mumbled.
''What?''
''Stop. You heard me. I kissed Magnus. He got angry. And he had every right to hit me. I cheated on him.'' Alec explained.
''No way.'' And just like that, Izzy's mood suddenly changed. She was now staring at him with her mouth wide open. ''I've been waiting for this day!'' She was now smiling and squealing with joy and happiness.
''What? That I will have a black eye?''
''No stupid! That you and Magnus will finally do something like this! Do you know how frustrating it is to look at the two of you! Magnus is checking you out when you're not looking and you are staring at him when he's not watching.''
''Umm...'' Alec mumbles.
''I'm not letting you go back to Eric you know?'' Isabelle said to him. ''What if you take some break to cool down. Go on a vacation, if Jocelyn would allow you to do so.''
''Yeah well..'' Alec mumbled and rubbed the back of his neck as embarrassment crept into him.''I kind of got fired.''
''Then you can stay with me.'' She suggested. No, that was a bad idea, she lives with Simon and they would do a lot of... kinky actives. There was no way he was going to bear hearing all of it or worse, stumbled and witness them acting on it. So, no thank you. ''No.''
''Jace and Clary?''
''They have all that wedding stuff I'd only be on their way all the time.''
''Mom and Dad?''
''Are you serious? I spent one weekend with them. Mom got all clingy, she wouldn't leave me alone and dad was trying to have conversation with me about you know, man stuff. Hunting and building and fighting. I can't do that again. And If I have to spend even a week in there without you guys I'm going crazy.'' All that was true, their parents were a little lost now when Max went off to collage. They were alone.
''You know what you should do. You should give them a kitten.'' She suggested with bright face like that was the best idea eve heard.
''That could be solution, but can they take care of one? That is such a big house and a kitten is so small.''
''Don't you trust them? Come on they have taken care of four kids.'' Izzy frowned. ''By the way. I'm going to make a bed for you in the guest room. Should I build some kind of nest to your cat? I don't want her to give birth in my closet or something.''
''I don't mind. She usually just sleeps next to me. I'll buy you a new sheets and mattress if she decided to give birth on the bed.'' Alec sighed.
''Okay. I'm gonna leave you right now to relax and work things out. And you are gonna think what you'll do with this Eric thing. And if you don't have anything for me when I come back I will decide for you. And I'm sure you know what it is.'' She said, stood up and left. When the door closed Alec's head was throbbing painfully as he was finding a desperate answer on the question that was bugging on his mind.
'Okay. What should I do, What should I do?'
I hope you liked it.
I don't know what I should think about Alec right now. He kind of deserved it for cheating on Eric. Tell me what you think with review.
I was also thinking about writing Christmas one shot. I just don't know what to write when there is so many of those already with that theme. Or should I write New Years Eve one shot?
Tell me if you liked the chapter and about that one shot.
Luv U All
