Chapter Three - Running


It was pouring outside, but Alec didn't mind. As he ran through the thick rain all he could think of was Magnus and how he sent him away again. 'Why can you throw me away so easily?' He thought sobbing, not bothering to conceal his tears anymore, the rain taking care of that. He ran and ran not even checking where he was going, until he ran out of breath and had to stop. His lungs were burning and his feet were trembling from the exertion even thought he had the runes. His raven hair was falling in wet tangles in front of his face and his dark clothes were soaked through.

He looked up and gasped, staring at the place his feet had taken him, not believing it and wondering why his subconscious led him there… He was standing near the entrance of the abandoned subway where Magnus had broken up with him and walked away, leaving him all alone… He slowly got inside, not knowing why this horrid place seemed to draw him there… 'I should return to the Institute…' he thought but kept walking, getting deeper inside the darkness.

"I wanna go home…" he whimpered softly, knowing no one was there to hear him. "Home… Can I ever return there again?" Magnus' words came back to him and fresh tears fell from his eyes.

"Maybe you should go…"

'You said so many times you loved me… Was everything a lie?' He slid to the floor bringing his knees to his chest. "I guess it doesn't matter anymore… I lost him again…" he laughed mirthlessly. "I am so useless… I couldn't even-" another sob choked him and he buried his face into his hands, completely letting go and crying his eyes out, shivering because of his drenched clothes but unable to care.
