Nothing could really explain Raphael Joseph Lightwood-Bane's mood at this moment than complete and utter boredom.
It wasn't that he didn't enjoy spending time with his aunt Clary and uncle Jace, he actually really liked watching Clary draw and watching Jace train. But it was moreso he just missed his parents, whom had went to get his little brother or sister from another institute. Truth be told, he wasn't sure how he felt about having a little brother or sister around. Of course he'd protect his little sibling no matter what, but he did like his alone time. The five year old sighed as his aunt came over to him and brushed his curly red hair out of his blue eyes.
"Aunt Clary, when are dad and papa gonna come back?" He asked looking up at her. Clary smiled.
"They'll be back soon Raph-" She replied just as a voice echoed throughout the institute.
"Raphael? Raphael come meet your new little sister!" The voice called. Raphael grinned and ran out of the room and down the hall to the main entrance, where a man with glittery black spikes and green-gold cat eyes was holding a bundle in his arms.
"Dad! Papa!" Raphael yelled as he ran as fast as his little legs could carry him. He tripped and nearly fell, but a pair of pale hands belonging to a man with black hair and blue eyes caught him and pulled him to his chest.
"Raphael what have we told you about running in the institute?" Alec scolded gently. Raphael frowned.
"Sorry papa…but can I see my little sister?" He asked. His father smiled at him.
"Yes Raphael." He replied as he walked over to his husband and the pink bundle in his arms. Magnus smiled and moved the blanket slightly to reveal a small baby with a tuff of black hair and pretty green eyes. Her skin was slightly tanned and she reached out to grab Raphael's pale finger and tug at it. Raphael smiled.
"What's her name dad?" He asked. Magnus smiled.
"Her name is Xandria Raphael. Xandria Belle Lightwood-Bane." He replied. Raphael smiled down at his sister.
"Hi Drei. I'm your big brother Raphael, and I'll protect you." He greeted giving her a nickname since he couldn't pronounce her name. The two fathers smiled at their children, happy that they were getting along well.
All was well in that moment, and nothing could change that.
AN: Xandria is pronounced An-Dri-Ah. It's a shortened name for Alexandria, the feminine form of Alexander (Magnus gave her her first name). Belle is 'beauty' in french, and Alec thought about Isabelle when he came up with it.
I'm pretty sure I've mentioned before that Raphael is named after Raphael Santiago, who sacrificed himself for Magnus in Edom, and Maxwell Joseph Lightwood, who died in the Mortal War. By blood, he is the child of Sebastian Morgenstern and the Seelie Queen. He looks like his mother, and biologically is Clary's nephew. I may write about how Alec and Magnus gained custody of Raphael, but I have no clue how to go about with it. Your thoughts?
