Song Shot # 24: Rewrite The Stars by Zac Efron & Zendaya (from The Greatest Showman)
"You know I want you, Alec. It's not a secret I try to hide."
He shook his head, a tuft of hair falling across his forehead. Magnus reached for him, but Alec backed away.
"I know you want me, Alec. Our hands aren't tied, and whose to say it's not in the cards?"
Something was pulling him away, miles and miles away, out of reach, from Magnus. He rested his hand on his heart.
"No matter what's pulling you away from me, you're here in my heart, Alec. Nothing will stop me if you're my destiny."
Alec was shaking his head again, and Magnus hugged him, resting his chin on his head.
"We could rewrite the stars. Say you're mine. Nothing would keep us apart. I was meant to find you, Alec. It's up to you and me. No one can decide who we get to be."
Alec pushed Magnus away, and turned away from him, hoping to keep him at bay. It wasn't fair to either of them, not when their relationship wasn't meant to be.
"Do you think it's easy? That I don't want to run to you?"
There were mountains and doors they couldn't walk through, impossibly hard to get through.
"You're wondering why, because we're able to be ourselves in these walls. But when we go out, you'll wake up and see that it's hopeless after all."
Alec closed his eyes, a few tears slipping out from under his closed eyes. This was so hard.
"No one can rewrite the stars, Magnus. I can't be yours, not when everything keeps us apart. I wasn't meant for you to find. It's not up to you and me."
Not when everyone tells us who we can be.
A/N: And this is the final song shot! Will this be the last we see of Malec? I don't think so. I have a few Malec fanfictions that I need to finish, and maybe after Please Stay With Me concludes, I'll get one of the fanfiction posted. It's been a fun ride and I have had so much fun posting these!
