The next chapter is here. Short again. Sorry about that. But at least it's something. Well anyway here you go. Hope you like it.
"Morning love." I heard Magnus whisper as I slowly started waking up.
Being woken up like that again made me smile and when I felt his soft lips pressing a kiss onto my cheek my smile grew even wider.
"Morning." I mumbled, nuzzling more to him and refusing to open my eyes.
He chuckled.
"Staying in bed all day are we?" He teased amusingly.
I shook my head but still didn't move away for even an inch. "No. Just a bit more. You're warm." I yawned at the end and he chuckled again, putting his arms more around me.
"I have nothing against that."
"I love you." I mumbled onto his skin suddenly after a few minutes of silence. Just feeling a need to tell him.
He tightened his hold on me and tilted my chin up, meeting my lips with his in a sweet and loving kiss. "I love you too Alexander." He whispered against my lips with a smile after it, still not letting go.
There was some knocking on the door, making us break apart.
"Hey love birds get some clothes on and get down. Breakfast is ready." Came Izzy's voice through the door before her retreating steps could be heard.
"We need to get up." I groaned, rolling around and getting up. Magnus letting go of me as I did and getting up himself. Looking as willing to do so as I was. Which was not at all.
After a short shower we quickly put some fresh clothes on-well I did, he took his time with the makeup and everything-we were getting downstairs towards the kitchen.
My father wasn't even there this time. Just my mom and of course the rest of them. But still all the talking stopped as we entered the kitchen side by side.
Maryse looked up, not looking please at all but still nodded in greeting towards Magnus. "Bane." She said politely. Which was more than I expected she would do.
"Maryse. Always a pleasure." He greeted her in return as we walked to the table.
After that everyone else let out the breath they were holding and got back to what they were talking about.
As we sat down side by side no one-other than my mom and Alline-didn't see anything weird or wrong with Magnus sitting there.
Jace and Izzy already knew him pretty good and have probably said something to Clary and Simon too since they didn't act that much differently either.
"Well you two took your time." Izzy teased making me roll my eyes.
"Not my fault." I replied, getting some food onto my plate.
"Hey this perfection can't be done that quickly." Magnus argued making all of us laugh.
"What's so funny?" Max asked, looking around confused.
"Nothing." Jace, Izzy and I replied at the same time making him groan and look annoyed.
As we all continued eating I noticed my mom looking at Magnus and me a lot. Watching. Observing. Something seemed off in her eyes. Something felt wrong. But I tried to ignore it and just continue like I didn't notice it. So I did. And Magnus of course couldn't help but flirt with me during breakfast. It wasn't noticeable to everyone but knowing him for so long made me unable to not notice it. Unfortunately. Since it only made me blush and Maryse furrow her eyebrows when she noticed.
Well that can't be good; I thought but again continued like I saw nothing.
"Alexander. Magnus. Can we talk? In private." She stated suddenly as we were finishing off our breakfast. Making Jace and Izzy along with the two of us stop eating and look up at her.
I felt fear build up in me as I saw Jace and Izzy look at each other before their eyes fell on me. Looking concerned and afraid. But not as much as me. At the moment-with her sounding like that-no one can be more afraid then me.
"Sure." I answered after a moment of silence, trying to stop my voice from shaking and luckily succeeding.
She nodded, still looking serious, and got up from the table, walking out of the kitchen.
After a second of hesitation I got up too and followed her. Magnus right behind me.
When we got out of the kitchen and she was still walking in front with her back to us he took my hand in his and squeezed it reassuringly. But it still didn't make me any less tense. What does she want to talk about? What was that look all about? Does she know? I thought, feeling like vomiting form fear at just the thought. No that's impossible. How would she know? She can't. But even as I thought it the feeling that she does know, at least to some extent, didn't leave me.
As we got to her room and got in he let go and we just ended up standing there, behind closed doors, with her looking at the both of us sternly.
"I want to know the truth." She stated after a minute of uncomfortable silence.
"What truth?" I asked a bit shakingly.
"Well yesterday Isabelle came to me saying that they summoned Magnus bane and he will be staying with you in your room instead of Jace and then this morning I see Caroline in tears as she accused said person of molesting my son." She said, still calm and composed. I on the other was in bit of a shock hearing about Caroline. Magnus told me what happened this morning while we were getting dressed but how the hell did she get to him molesting me. I didn't know if to laugh or be angry or offended. "I want to know the truth. Alexander…" She continued and I looked up at her as I heard my name being spoken, having a really bad feeling about this. "Are the two of you together?"
Did you like it? Tell me what you think.
Another cliffy. Sorry. And sorry for the shortness too. For this one and the ones before it. I just feel really really lazy lately and it's either short chapters or no chapters so don't hold it against me please. Anyway I'm really going to try to get the next chapter to be longer (even though that's the same thing I thought for this one but ok). I'll really try I promise. 15 reviews for the next chapter please.
So review my lovelies.
