Surprise!
I had some free time so I decided to post again today. Can't remember the last time I posted this fast. But I read my first fanfiction in three months today. It felt so good to have enough time to actually read something again. And yeah I know its short again but what can you do. I needed it to end like this. It was planned from the very beginning of this fanfic but the end is nearing. So you know I'm staling again like usual. But anyway here you go. Hope you like it.
"Are the two of you together?"
The question took me aback but at the same time I felt like I knew this was coming. I knew it was inevitable.
I didn't know what to say as she looked at me expectedly. I didn't think I have the straight to say it. Not to her. But as she asked she didn't look disgusted or anything I expected to see in her eyes. All I could see was wondering and…hurt? Yes it looked like hurt. But why does she look hurt. Is it because I didn't tell her or something else?
As my mind kept wondering I noticed she's still waiting for an answer and snapped out of it.
At the corner of my eye I could see Magnus, waiting as much as she was. Waiting to see if he's still staying my little secret or not. And seeing him look like that, seeing him doubt me hurt me. But it also made me make up my mind. No more.
"What would you say if I say yes?" I heard myself say, not letting my mind over think it all. It's now or never.
Now she was the one looking taken aback but she contained her feelings quickly.
"Alexander I…" As she started talking I could see her eyes soften and she stepped closer to me. Taking one of my hands into hers lovingly. "I just want you to be happy. No matter what makes you happy. No matter if you're dating a girl or a very colorful Warlock I'll still love you. I just want you to be happy."
At her words I felt like a big load was lifted off of my chest. Like all of my fears and nightmares of her looking at me in disgust and her disowning me after finding out disappeared.
She really doesn't mind; I thought feeling like smiling. She's not like him. She still loves me no matter what.
"Thank you for thinking that way. But Robert doesn't though." I told her with a small smile, my voice shaking a little.
I felt Magnus's hand on my shoulder and my mom didn't even flinch, just kept looking at me in the eyes. Her eyes turning sad as I said it.
"I know. And I'm really sorry because of it. I didn't want you going through all of this. But don't worry he doesn't know about this." She motioned towards Magnus's hand that was still reassuringly on my shoulder. "I made Caroline calm down and go home promising that she won't tell anyone else them me. Ii know how everyone thinks and that it won't be easy so it's better for them not to know anything if possible."
"Thank you." I gave her another smile. "Thank you for everything."
"You're my son." She cherished my cheek softly. "I'll do anything to keep you safe and happy. Remember that ok."
I nodded. Feeling really affected by her words.
"And now would one of you please explain to me how all of it even started and for how long because I was really surprised to hear it coming from Caroline."
"Amm…"
Magnus seeing that I don't know how to find the right words took the lead and spoke up for the first time since we got in here. "We actually met ten months ago. Before you introduced us. And been together ever since." He squised my shoulder lightly and I leaned a little bit closer to him.
"Ten months?" She looked even more shocked at that. "Does anyone else know?"
"Jace, Izzy, Max, Clary and Simon." I listed them all, remembering how they did find out about us.
"Max? Max knows?"
"Yes. He was concerned after dad kicked me out and was in Taki's for lunch when Magnus and I were so he kind of met him then. He was very open-minded about it all." I said with a fond smile, remembering the slight speech he made to show me that he's fine with it.
"Well that's good. You need people who love you around. That's really good…" She trailed off, looking behind us as the door was opened a crack. Magnus and I turning around to see what's happening too.
"Mom please doesn't be mad at them." I heard Max's soft voice whisper as he looked out through the slightly opened door; he looked worried as he looked at us.
"Its fine Max I'm not mad." She gave him a small smile as she said it and he opened the door more so that we could see all of him.
"Really? You're not? Because dad is and I don't like it. Why doesn't he like Alec anymore?" He stepped inside and I felt sad as I saw his slumped shoulders.
"He just isn't happy with me loving Magnus that's all." I said softly before getting her into the situation to reply. It's her husband after all. "You don't have to worry about it though. It's nothing. For me it's enough that you still like me."
"I do." He gave me a smile before hugging me. "You too Magnus." I felt him tug onto Magnus's shirt with one hand. "Even though you're weird."
I laughed at that and even Magnus couldn't help but smile as he saw Max clinging to the both of us. At the corner of my eye I could also see Maryse looking at us all fondly.
This ended up better than expected; I thought as I caught Magnus's gaze. He had a proud look full of love. Yes, definitely better than expected.
…
After the talk with my mom we just ended up lazing around the house. Talking to Jace, Izzy, Clary and Simon. It was relaxing after so many days of just going to Clave meetings. Something I wasn't allowed to do now since I have Magnus attached to me 24 hours a day. But I didn't mint that at all. Either one of it.
The best part of the day was that Robert was nowhere to be seen. And I didn't mind that either. I didn't need any more disgusted looks from him. I've had more than enough.
"Something is wrong." Max suddenly said while we were all just sitting on the couch in the living room and talking away. Well Izzy and Jace were talking, I was just listening. Mostly.
"What is it?" Jace asked as all of us turned to look at him. He was standing by the window and looking out as the night was falling and darkness was taking over the sky.
"It's dark." He said simply.
"It's night time. It's supposed to be dark." Simon pointed out.
"No." Max turned to look at us. His eyes slightly wide. "Its dark dark."
Magnus was the first one to get up. With me and Jace following right behind.
And the second we got to the window we noticed why he looked alarmed. It was dark. Too dark for Idris.
"The wards…" I whispered as realization hit me.
Magnus nodded next to me, looking grave serious. "The wards are down."
Did you like it? Tell me what you think.
I always liked Maryse. She's a good and caring mother. Just hides it most of the time. But Alec is finally able to move on don't you think. She accepted him. That's all he needed. And of course I couldn't resist but end it this way. But it's needed. Trust me. Anyway need 15 reviews please.
So review my lovelies.
