b r ight. e y e s800 I agree with you that Robert is confusing. I mean in every other Malec fanfic he's a dick and all, but I have this feeling that he's a dick in the beginning because he doesn't understand. But in the end he's sorry and loves his son and he's going to try. Just like CoHF :) I believe that Robert is a good dad when we get pass all the confusing and gay shamming. Some people is not good at dealing with changes. I'm so glad you likes this chapter! Sorry for not updating so fast this time! Hopefully I can change that when I'm finished with my exam on friday! Love

TattleTales I'm glad I surprised you with Robert. That was my intension all along. They are going to work things through. Robert still needs lot's of "work", but he's totally getting there! Magnus is old and wise hahaha and very understanding. I love him! WE ALL LOVE HIM!

Intoxic There is an mention in this chapter that Robert knows about Lilac. Of course there is going to be more father and son bonding, and there is going to be a talk about Lilac. Robert and Alec are not finished yet. Right now I'm focusing on other things, which I know you will all like ;)

26. Chapter

Alec was glad to be back home. Seeing his old childhood home, sleeping in his old bed, and being around the people he cared about the most. What made the visit so much better was the father and son reunion. Alec had never thought he would be able to talk to his father again, and both men saying sorry for their behavior. Alec had been walking around with a grudge and anger towards his father for so long that it had been eating him up inside. And he hadn't realized until last night that it had been holding him back from breathing. Because after that talk Alec had taken a deep breath and exhaled with a smile on his face.

Of course Robert wasn't overly excited about seeing Alec and Magnus share sweet kisses and loving touches. Alec had talked to his father about boundaries and Robert had been clear that he didn't like them kissing in front him. And Alec did as Magnus had told him and he listened and understood. When Alec and Ryan had kissed for the first time he was scared and uncomfortable that he liked another guys lips on his. And Robert was still trying this whole guy loving another guy thing, so Alec had to keep it PG. Other than that, Robert was actually being nice and talked to Magnus. He asked him different questions like how he met Alec and of course the truth had to come out. At first Robert was surprised that Magnus had a daughter and that Alec still dated him. Robert thought Alec was too young to be a father and he said that straight out and Alec defended himself by saying he wasn't being a father to Lilac. He was being what he was hired to and then he was being a friend. He loved Lilac and he cared for her, and he would always be there for her. Though of course, he told Robert that she was calling him Papa Alec, which the whole table laughed at. Maybe Alec should talk to Lilac about changing the name to Daddy Alec or whatever. Mostly because he thought it sounded funny, and the fact that Magnus had been teasing him about the name, in bed and they ended up having sex. It was just a little weird now.

But the attention wasn't all on Alec, Robert talked to Clary and Jace and was curious to how a pretty and clever girl like Clary, ended up with someone like Jace. They were the most unlikely pair ever been made, but that's what make their relationship work so well. Clary told Robert that they met at a party and she thought Jace was an arrogant asshole who was full of himself. But still, yet again, a girl couldn't get pass the charming smile and the angelic glow. Jace used his charm and convinced Clary to date him and in the end they ended up as a couple. Alec had looked at them through dinner, holding hands and looking at each other with the we-are-so-in-love-that-it's-gross look. Alec would move his hand across Magnus's thigh until Magnus got the message and moved his hand underneath the table to interwined their hands.

Simon was sitting alone poking his dinner and Alec felt bad for him. Izzy had been caught up at a friends house because of a chemistry project. She had told Alec she would be there for dinner but that didn't happen and in the end she decided to stay the night. Alec knew Simon had been excited to see Izzy again. He had the biggest smile on his face when he told Alec Izzy had invited him to come along to The Hamptons. It was clear he was falling in love with her, and he was falling fast and hard. Izzy on the other hand still seemed confused about the whole thing. She didn't understand that she was falling in love with someone like Simon when he was the exact type she would avoid and look pass at a party and then go for the bad boy. So, Alec asked if this so called 'chemistry project' was a diversion so she didn't have to face Simon. And obviously it was. She was staying at Aline Penhallow's house, which she always did when she felt confused or frustrated. The Penhallow's have been family friends with the Lightwoods since dinosaurs walked the planet. Aline took a lot of bullshit from the Lightwood kids, the stress over homework, confused feelings, what manga to read next and what not. She was like the fourth sister for the Lightwood siblings.

Alec promised he wouldn't tell what Izzy was originally doing, but seeing Simon's hanging head and hurt grim made Alec want to tell him exactly what was going on. But he figured it would be best if Izzy told him. They needed to talk about a lot of things.

Alec sighed at the many thoughts of last night and tightened his grip around Magnus. He held Magnus tight against his chest and pushed his knee between his legs to get warm. Magnus had managed to snatch the whole blanket during the night, and it was snuggled tightly around his body. Magnus moaned and snuggled his head against the pillow. Alec couldn't help but smile and leaned in to kiss the crook of his boyfriend's neck. It was odd being in his old room. It was exactly how he left it. With the plain white walls with a few pictures his mother had insisted on. There was an old, vintage bookshelf with old and classical books. He glanced towards his window where a dark desk was placed, with a lamp and a few old pens. Things hadn't changed from this room to his dormitory. Everything was the same, except that there was a hot and gorgeous, and sexy older guy in bed with him. Snuggled up close against his bare chest, and he was half naked, only wearing his tight golden underwear.

And Alec was totally and completely in love with this hot and gorgeous, and sexy older guy. He loved everything about him. He loved the smile he gave him in private, a smile only made for Alec. The way his eyes shone when he spoke about something passionately or in frustrations. He loved how Magnus appreciated the small things in the world, like randomly walk into a bookstore and touch the pages and smell them. Or touching things when he walked pass them, like the wall of a building or the clothes on the hangers in the shops.

"God, I love you so much," Alec mumbled and touched Magnus's neck with his nose. Magnus hummed and moved his hand to Alec's.

"I love you so much more," Magnus whispered and Alec moved up on his elbow and looked down to see Magnus was still fast asleep. Alec smiled and slowly decided to get up from the bed. He moved his hand up Magnus's waist and untangled himself from his boyfriend. He let his feet touch the cold wooden floor and stretched his arms above his head. The sun was just rising above the ocean and it was a beautiful sight. Alec always woke up early when he was at The Hamptons, it was like his mind knew he had to wake up early to see the sunrise. And it was a sight every single time. He slowly slipped out of his underwear and glanced back at Magnus who was holding the blanket like it was a person. And he looked so adorable.

He tiptoed towards the bathroom and let the door open and gave Magnus one last glance. He slipped into the shower and turned on the hot water. He closed his eyes as he felt the hot drops land against his face. He opened his mouth and licked his lips. The water tasted different than New York, it tasted fresh and sweet. It was odd, but Alec didn't question it and he enjoyed every single moment of it. He moved his hands down his body and through his hair. He placed his hands against the wall opposite him and looked down at his feet. He watched as the water swirled and disappeared down the drain. He didn't hear that someone had pulled the curtain aside and stepped in behind him. It wasn't until he felt the familiar arms around and he leaned against the person behind him.

"Good morning, honey," Alec said and turned his head and looked at Magnus. Magnus's eyes were sleepy and his black hair was a mess. He smiled dazedly and leaned in for a sweet kiss.

"Good morning to you too," he said and removed his arms to push them through his hair. Alec turned around and glanced down his boyfriends gorgeous and wet body and licked his lips. Why couldn't he control his goddam hormones around Magnus?

"Well don't you look hungry," Magnus said and chuckled as Alec blushed and looked up to make eye contact.

"D-did you sleep well?" Alec asked trying to avoid the fact that the first thing he does is looking at his boyfriend from head to toe and want nothing more than to just devour him under the hot stream of water.

"Your bed is very comfortable," Magnus said and reached behind Alec for a bath sponge. "Did you bring all your guys over for a snuggle?" Alec could feel the smirk on Magnus's lips and he stared as the sponge circulated his hipbones.

"Guys? What makes you think it's plural?"

"Because you're fucking hot that's why," Magnus moved the sponge up to his stomach and kept looking at Alec. "So? Did you?"

"I- I only brought one. Ryan," Alec mumbled and bit his bottom lip and followed the sponge up his perfect muscular stomach. "We- erm, made out and stuff." Magnus raised an eyebrow and moved the sponge up to his chest.

"And stuff?"

"Why do you want to know?" Alec asked and watched as the sponge brushed against his boyfriend's nipples and slowly moved down again. He wanted to throw that sponge away and push Magnus against the wall and kiss him and then let his hands roam over his body.

"Curiosity," Magnus said and let he sponge graze over his crotch. "Did you loose your virginity to him?" Alec glanced up and looked into Magnus's eyes and all he saw was curiosity. He wasn't sure what else he expected to see but it was nice that he asked, because they hadn't actually talked about this.

"I did," Alec said. "We were both 17 and inexperienced. Usually we would just mess around on my bed, making out, touching each other and then one day we decided to take the next step. It just sort of happened. Our clothes was on the floor and the next thing I know I'm between his legs giving him a blowjob and then he's preparing me and we were having sex."

"Just like that?" Magnus asked and stopped the sponge and Alec heard a small chuckle. "Was it good?"

"No," Alec said quickly and blushed. "I mean, it was fine for a first time I think. But it hurt like hell. And he was kind of boring all the way through. He would just stare at me and occasionally kiss me."

"First times are usually like that," Magnus said and leaned against the wall behind him.

"We had sex a couple of times afterwards and then he told me it wouldn't work out between us. And now when I think about it, he was right. We were totally not right for each other. We were clumsy together and we didn't fit in any way. Plus, our conversations were always awkward and one sentenced. But he was sweet nonetheless and I don't regret him being my first."

"I'm glad to hear that," Magnus said and smiled lazily. "Do you know where he is now?"

"No," Alec said and furrowed his eyebrows. "We stopped talking after we broke up which sucks because we were friends before. friends in some way. But I know he lives here and that's all." Magnus nodded and went quiet. He looked down at the sponge that was covering up his crotch. "And you? How was your first time." Magnus smiled and looked back up.

"Chaotic. I was 14 and it was with my girlfriend, Maya. We had been together for 3 months and decided it was about time to do some more other than kissing and fondling. We were camping with her family and we were sharing a tent," Magnus said and laughed lightly. " So, we decided to try and I had prepared myself. Bringing all the necessary stuff, lube and condoms. Obviously it hurt and she cried a bit because we had no idea what we were doing, but we went through it. But then Maya decided it would be a good idea to ride me and she forgot we were staying in a tent. Her head bumped the top of the tent and her hair caught on, on one of those things that keeps the tent together. I tried to get her loose but she panicked and the tent collapsed on us and she bent in a weird angle and broke my dick. At least that's what it felt like."

"Oh my God," Alec laughed and covered his mouth. "Sounds like fun." Magnus shrugged and smiled as Alec kept laughing. "But seriously, 14? That's really young."

"I guess. But we were both ready and both very open about sex and we couldn't see why we shouldn't. But if you really think about it it's not that young. The new generation are already putting their hands in each others pants at the age of 12," Magnus explained and gently touched Alec's bicep with his fingers. Alec shivered and gulped before asking his next question.

"And with a boy?"

"15," Magnus said and stared out in the distance. "Imasu Morales. He was an exchange student from Peru. He was 17 years old and I thought he was very beautiful. He sort of took my breath away and I fell in love with him immediately. He was very hard to charm and it took me a long time to make him go out with me. First of all he thought I was too young and seemed like a player. He was looking for a relationship that would last forever. Which of course couldn't happen between us since he would go back to Peru within a year. But I finally convinced him to enjoy the time he could with me because I knew he wanted me." Magnus looked at Alec and he could see that Alec was very interested in hearing what he had to say.

"Sooo, we dated and he was the one who taught me everything about boy on boy action. How everything worked. I liked it. A lot. It felt so good, and in the end I gave in. He topped, obviously and it was the best sex I've ever had," Magnus looked at Alec and saw his blue eyes glance down. Magnus smiled and moved his fingers to his collarbone. "Until you obviously. Nothing beats you and your amazing and delicious cock." Alec blushed and sputtered and tried to speak before Magnus leaned in for a kiss to shut him up.

"We were together for 10 months until he went back to Peru. When he went away I thought I would be upset and cry, but I didn't. We got the time together we were suppose to have and that was that," Magnus said and looked Alec in the eyes.

"That sounds like one of those sappy romantic movies," Alec said and took a deep breath as he felt Magnus's fingernail scrape against his skin. "He sounds like a good guy with a very weird name."

"He was a good guy," Magnus said and smiled. "My first time with a guy was so much better than with a girl."

"What do you prefer then?" Alec asked and touched Magnus's thighs with his hands he slowly spread his legs and moved his hands up his inner thighs and grazed his balls. Magnus shivered and his eyes fluttered but they stayed open.

"I don't know," Magnus said with a smirk. "I'm still very confused. Maybe I need help?" Alec grinned and leaned in for a kiss. He pressed Magnus hard against the wall and kissed him feverishly. His tongue grazed Magnus's bottom lip and forced its way into the heat of his mouth. Magnus moaned and sucked on it eagerly and thrust his hips against Alec's. They pulled apart and Alec attacked his neck and Magnus's head fell against the wall. Alec licked the skin and dropped down on his knees. Magnus whimpered at the sudden loss of Alec's lips and glanced down to see his boyfriend on his knees in front of him. Alec looked up with his big blue eyes and smiled. His tongue dipped out and licked the slit slowly.

"Oh God," Magnus moaned and kept staring. Alec smirked and kissed the leaking head of Magnus's cock.

"Don't be to loud," Alec said and savored the whole thing. Alec moaned around him and bopped his head a couple of times before grapping the base with his hand and sucking on the head.

"Fuck, baby. I can't… ah… promise anything," Magnus moaned and licked his lips. He curled his fingers into Alec's hair. "You're so goddam, shit, good at this." Alec kept sucking, and smirked as he moved his hands up Magnus' thighs and behind to his ass. He rubbed his ass cheeks and Magnus moaned and bucked forward. His cock slid further down Alec's throat and Alec closed his eyes as he felt a tear slide down his cheek.

"Shit, sorry," Magnus moaned and looked down at his boyfriend. Alec pulled off with a pop and grabbed the base with one hand and smirked up at him.

"You know I can take it, baby," he said and teased the slit a couple of times before licking the pre-come, parting his lips and sucking on his cock once more. Magnus tightened his grip in Alec's hair and guided him up and down.

Alec let him take control as he swirled his tongue across the hard shaft and against the vein pulsing in his mouth. Alec hummed in pleasure and kept sucking until he felt Magnus's legs shake.

"Almost there, baby," Magnus moaned and started to thrust into the heat of Alec's welcoming mouth. "Suck me harder, Alec."

And Alec did. He tightened his lips around his boyfriends' cock and relaxed his throat before deep throating. He hummed against the tip of the dick and closed his eyes.

"Ohgodohgodohgod," Magnus sang and arched his back. "I'm coming! I-" Magnus came hard and Alec hummed as he felt the warm seed slide down his throat. He pulled up to the head and kept sucking the head, milking every single drop and made sure Magnus was riding out his orgasm. Alec made one last lick and pulled off, smiling up at Magnus.

"What's your verdict?" Alec asked and wiped his mouth with his wrist. Magnus looked down at him and smiled.

"Come up here," he said and Alec obeyed. Magnus pulled him in for a kiss, his tongue pushing it's way in and Alec moaned.

"Maybe I need to be convinced some more," Magnus teased in a husky voice and Alec felt himself getting harder. He smirked and turned Magnus around against the wall and pushed himself against him. It was safe to say that Alec made Magnus scream that Alec was the one he preferred.

…

Izzy sighed as she walked down the long sandy path towards her house. How did things become so complicated for her? Feelings weren't suppose to be complicated. They were suppose to help you through life and make the right decisions. But they don't. They hurt and confuse you, and then you have no idea what to do. And then you're alone. Feeling nothing. Izzy had feelings for Simon and it was something new to her. She felt happy around him, she loved seeing him smile on the computer screen and she loved it even more when he was sitting with his guitar singing her a song and he even wrote a song for her. No one had ever written her a song. No one had ever done anything for her before. Sure she had boyfriends in the past, but they never felt quite like Simon. Simon was safe and she felt like she belonged with him.

But she had probably screwed that up now. She felt bad making Alec lie for her and saying she was staying at Aline's house. Aline had told her to be a woman and go talk to Simon instead of hiding underneath her blankets. Of course Izzy didn't become a woman and she stayed hidden. And maybe that's what she needed because when she woke up she felt ready to face Simon. She felt ready to close the deal and ask Simon to be hers. She really hoped he still wanted her.

As she approached the front porch she hadn't expected anyone to be awake. She saw a shadow of someone sitting on the bench and she heard sweet music and her heart started beating fast. She took a deep breath and turned the corner and saw Simon sitting in his pj's and boots and hoodie. His face was downcast and he was busy playing a melody he kept messing up. His brown hair covered up his brown eyes and Izzy could see the black outlines of his glasses. She took another step hoping he wouldn't notice her but the branches underneath her shoes cracked and his head snapped up. Izzy blinked and released a shaky breath.

"Hello Simon," she said and smiled slowly before walking up the steps.

"Hi Izzy," he said and watched her as she walked towards him. "Finally decided to make an appearance?" Izzy swallowed the lump in her throat and leaned against the window near the bench. God did she want to lean forward and kiss him. She had missed him so bad, and now he was right in her reach and she couldn't move.

"I'm sorry I didn't show up yesterday," she mumbled and removed some of her hair from her face. "I was busy with a French project." Simon narrowed his eyes and he laughed. His laugh was low and husky and it felt wrong.

"Right," he said and stood up. "A French project. You know, if you want to make up a lie and have you brother lie to my face, you should both agree on the lie." She blinked and pushed away from the window.

"I'm not lying to you Simon," she said a little louder but her voice cracked a little and she could see he didn't believe her.

"Yes you are," he said and he sounded sad. "Alec told me you were doing chemistry." Izzy sighed and rubbed her neck.

"He must have misunderstood," she tried again. Why couldn't she tell him the truth? A few minutes ago, 5 minutes ago to be more exact, she had wanted nothing more than to have Simon as her own. And now when she was in front of him, and she could practically feel his arms around her, and she froze like always.

"He sounded pretty sure," he said and walked pass her. "If you didn't want me here you should have told me."

"I want you here," Izzy breathed and turned around and saw his hand on the doorknob. "Of course I want you here."

"How am I suppose to believe that?" He asked and sighed and finally looked at her. His brown eyes looked glazed and it seemed like it was hard for him to even look her for just one second.

Izzy leaped forward and grabbed his face in her hands before finally smashing her lips against his. He stumbled backwards against the door and she heard the guitar sing against the floor. She moved closer, pressing her body against his and kissed him with all she had. She moved her lips against his and he finally responded and moved his hand to the small curve of her back. He tasted like oranges and coffee, and Izzy sighed against him. Her tongue met his and they both shivered. She didn't want to let him go, and this always worked. When she kissed a guy they could never say no. They were so swallowed up by the touches and presence of each other that they didn't hear the sound of someone clearing their throat. It wasn't until they heard someone jump the last step of the stairs that they pulled apart.

Izzy turned and stared at her brothers. Alec was standing with Max in his hand and looking at them both with his big brother look. His hair was wet like he had just been taking a dip.

"Gross," Max said and made a grim face. Simon flushed and bend down to grab his guitar.

"Hey guys," he said and waved at them shyly. Alec raised an eyebrow and looked at his sister as if asking what was going on.

"What are you two doing out here this early?" Izzy snapped and crossed her arms. She was angry that they had interrupted them.

"Max asked if I would help him buy some flowers," Alec said and shrugged and showed the small bouquet of flowers they both had in their hands. "And I bought some for Magnus. Might as well."

"Yup," Max said cheerfully. "I told Alec to buy the flowers that matched Magnus's eyes the most. Girls like that so I figured guys would too." Izzy glanced down at the yellow and green flowers with a mix of blue lilacs. She wished she could be like her brothers. They were all three boyfriend material. She thought it was a sweet gesture that Alec had bought flowers for Magnus.

"Why would you buy flowers Max?" Izzy asked and smiled down at Max as he blushed.

"A girl in my class. I like her so I bought her flowers," he answered and shrugged, probably trying to seem cool. "I should go give them some water." He walked pass them all and went inside. Izzy could smell the morning coffee and bread and her mouth watered. Izzy looked back at her big brother and tried to give him a look that told him to get lost. He seemed to get it because he slowly walked pass them and disappeared into the kitchen.

Izzy turned to Simon and grabbed his hand.

"Do you believe me now?" She asked, hoping he did. Simon pulled his hand away and shook his head.

"A kiss wont convince me," he said and smiled sadly. "You can kiss anyone and make them feel whatever they want to. Especially when they are crazy in love with you like I am. When you are ready to tell me the truth and just talk to me. I'm here." He squeezed her shoulder in a friendly gesture and went inside and disappeared upstairs.

Izzy bit her bottom lip and when she blinked she felt a tear slip down her cheek. She slowly moved her hand up to her cheek and rubbed away the water. It had surprised her that she had cried, but it surprised her the most when she felt her heart go cold and shatter.

…

…

…

"These are for you," Alec said and made a small swirl before presenting the flowers for his boyfriend. Magnus looked down at the small bouquet of beautiful flowers in his hand. He smiled and took them gladly.

"I thought you were allergic?" Magnus asked and took a big sniff of the flowers and looked up at his boyfriend.

"I almost died on my way over here," Alec said but shrugged. " But I wanted you to have some flowers. A guy should give his boyfriend a bouquet of flowers at least once a year." Magnus smiled wider into his flowers and touched the Lilac flowers.

"Thank you darling," he said and placed the flowers down his lap and leaned over to place a kiss on Alec's lips. Alec smiled against him and kissed him playfully.

"I can't catch a break," Max said and sighed at the scene in front of him. Magnus pulled away and there was a small blush on his caramel cheeks. He bit his bottom lip and looked at Max.

"Sorry Max," Magnus said and pushed Alec away as he tried for another kiss. "I didn't see you there."

"Great," Max said and placed his own flowers on the table. "You could have started to have sex and you wouldn't notice me. Like in the showers today." Alec blushed in shame and hid his head in the crook of his boyfriends neck. He had completely forgotten he shared his bathroom with Max, and that the second door was an opening to Max's room. He was reminded when Max had entered the bathroom asking if they were okay in there and Alec had to cover up Magnus's mouth in hope to shut him up. Max of course wasn't stupid and asked if they were having sex. And Alec had been mortified and told him to leave.

"Don't remind me," Alec mumbled against Magnus and Magnus chuckled, and Alec felt the vibrations down his body. He was about to say something when Simon walked pass them and stomped up the stairs and smacked the door to his room. They all three made a small jump and they turned to look at each other.

"Was that Simon?" Magnus asked and touched the flower leafs.

"I think he's mad," Max said and jumped up on the counter. "Maybe Izzy is a bad kisser."

"Max, don't make jokes right now," Alec kept looking at the door hoping Isabelle would appear. But she didn't. Alec bit his bottom lip and looked at the window with the view to the porch. He saw his sister sit down on the bench and looked upset.

"I should go talk to her," he said and got up from his chair. He kept his eyes on her not even noticing that Magnus had turned to look out the window and agree with him. He gave Magnus's hand a small squeeze and walked outside.

The weather was dry and the wind was cold. Alec rubbed his arms trying to get warm as he walked towards his sister. He sat down next her and embraced her, letting her head lean against his shoulder.

"What happened?" He whispered and he heard her sniff. It was clear that she was crying but there was no way he was going to have her look at him. Izzy hated it when people saw her cry.

"I fucked up that's what happened," she said and rubbed her eyes. "I lied to him even though I knew he knew the truth. I kept lying. And now he's mad at me for not talking to him and just tell him the truth. Why can't I tell the truth Alec?"

"What is the truth?"

"That I like him. That I'm in love with him," she laughed lightly and moved away from her brother to look at him. "Is that crazy? I barely know him but it just feels so nice to be with him. And I like nice." Alec smiled and touched her cheek gently trying to remove some of the black smudge underneath her eyes.

"You are not crazy. I told Magnus I loved him after a week maybe two," Alec said and removed his hand. "If you love someone you should just tell them. I don't think there's a to fast or to late rule for telling someone you love them."

"I love him then," Izzy said and breathed in relief. She had wanted to say those words for so long and even though it wasn't to Simon, she felt so much better. "So you think I should tell him?"

"Do you want to?"

"I really want to," she responded and sighed. "But I don't think he want's to talk to me right now. He hates me."

"He doesn't hate you, Izzy," Alec said and tried his best to comfort his sister. "I know for a fact that he is crazy about you. You just have a lot of trust issues and the idea of love scares you. It scared me too, until I found Magnus. He made me feel comfortable and made everything so easy. He made me stand up to my dad in a very reasonable way."

"You and dad are good now?" Izzy asked and her eyes were wide with chock.

"We are better," Alec said and looked down at his hands. "We are still working things out, but we can talk and he can look at me without looking disgusted. That's progress."

"You're so brave, Alec," Izzy said and leaned back against the bench and sighed. "I ju-"

"You're brave too Izzy," he said. "If you haven't forgotten, you were the one that caught on to me being gay. You told me to man up and tell our parents. You told me to be me and go after what I wanted and that I had nothing to be afraid of. I think it's bravery when you can stand up for someone you love." Izzy smiled slowly at her brother and leaned forward to put her head on her brothers shoulder. It was something she had always done when they were little and it seemed to comfort her more than a hug. He kissed her forehead and held her close. He wasn't very good with advice and especially when the subject was about boys who were in love with his sister. If it stood to Alec he would make sure no guy would never break her heart and he would wait for that special someone. And he knew Simon was that special someone, that's why it was so easy for him to tell her what to do. That's why it was so easy for him to just tell her that she loved Simon.

"Did Magnus like the flowers?"

"He did," Alec said and smiled. "Yeah."

"Do you think you're going to get laid tonight?" Izzy asked and smirked when she felt Alec tense and she could feel the warm blush on his cheeks.

"I- I don't know," Alec sputtered and wriggled uncomfortably. "Maybe."

"Maybe I should give Simon flowers," Izzy suggested. "And a love note saying how terrible sorry I am."

"You will figure it out Izzy," Alec said and put his head on top of hers. "You know him. Give him something he loves, use his interests as a way to show him you love him. Like music." Izzy blinked at the suggestion. Music. She didn't know anything about music. She loved whatever music she thought sounded good. She didn't have a specific taste in music like Simon or an emo. But maybe she could figure something out using music. Write him a song? Sing him a song? Sing him a song…

"I know what to do," she exclaimed and jumped up startling Alec. "We are all going out tonight." Alec watched as she ran into the house and he could barely register what had just happened. He got up front he bench and brushed the back of his pants and was about to go inside when he saw Robert coming running towards him. He was wearing his gym clothes and he was all sweaty. He pulled off his headphones and smiled at Alec. He ran up to him and he seemed happy.

"Hey dad," Alec said and stuck his hands down his pockets. "Still running in the mornings I see." Robert chuckled and nodded making the sweat run down his face.

"I just talked to Daniel Grint," Robert said and smiled proudly. "I have something very exciting to tell you. Something there is going to change everything."

I just changed to cliffy to this one. Originally it ended with Izzy saying "We are all going out tonight." But I like this so much better hahaha! Please don't kill me though! And I will promise to not make you wait almost month again!

Let the angst begin! hehehe
