Sorry that I haven't been updating as frequently I went camping for a week and I got back a few days ago (I've also been watching Shingeki no Kyojin a lot). By the way I want to finish this story quickly so there might be like two chapters left of adopted, I'm just not really feeling this fic anymore and it probably should've been over like ten chapters ago or something.
Sorry that this chapters so short.
I don't own the mortal instruments or its characters they belong to Cassandra clare.
Alec's POV
A few weeks went by and Isabelle wouldn't talk to him, things were getting worse and the only thing keeping Alec from going on and not curling up into a little ball was Magnus and Jace and the hope that Isabelle would forgive him. Max was still annoyed that everyone was keeping things from him.
Alec kept telling Max that he'd tell him everything he wanted to know later, but Alec kept finding ways to avoid having to tell Max everything by distracting him with manga or something along those lines.
He has been trying to talk to Isabelle to apologise for trying to kill himself, but Isabelle would just walk away or ignore him. A few times he was sure that Isabelle would hate him forever and he should just give up, but each time he was about to give up on it all Magnus or Jace would tell him that that would make Isabelle hate him even more.
Alec kept going to his therapist Mr Fell daily, because, surprisingly, he really did want help he wanted to get better not just for himself but also for his family. Though he did ask Magnus to stop coming in with him because he didn't want him to hear his thoughts, though he did tell Magnus after his session how it went and what had happened he didn't go into much detail though. Jeffery usually chucked a tantrum every single time Alec would get back in the car after his session, because he wouldn't tell him anything.
Alec had practically moved in to Magnus's room, because he didn't really like sleeping in his room anymore, he liked waking up next to Magnus, kissing him and spending more time with him. Magnus had even taken him out a couple times, like to lunch and to movies. When Alec asked Magnus if they were dates he said yes which made him feel giddy inside.
Alec spending time with Magnus just made Jeffery get mad, almost every day he would tell them that they shouldn't be doing this they're brothers. Usually Vicky would step in and tell her husband that she hadn't legally adopted Alec and his siblings and what Magnus and Alec are doing is completely fine. Jeffery would just go all silent until he found something else to yell at them about.
Schools been going alright for Alec but Jonathan and his jerk-ass friends' keep giving him a hard time, making fun of him for the way his hair looked to the car accident. Magnus and Jace have been standing up for him though, but it just makes it worse. He was enjoying his classes a lot more because Magnus sat next to him in every class, they had together.
"Alec!" Magnus said, running over to him and grabbing his wrist. "The bell just rung, we'll be late for class."
Alec blinked, "Sorry, I didn't notice."
"That's okay, love." Magnus said, tugging on his wrist making him speed up his walk. "Let's just hurry okay."
Alec nodded and started walking faster so they got to class quicker. "I'm sorry," he said again.
"It's okay," Magnus reassured.
They made their way to their homeroom class just as the warning bell rung out. "I'm sorry we're late, Miss Fairchild." Magnus said, letting go of Alec's wrist.
"That's alright," Miss Fairchild said. "Take a seat."
Alec and Magnus made their way to the back of the room where they usually sat. Camille, the blond bimbo, gave Magnus a look that said What-are-you-doing?! She gave Magnus that look every day, it annoyed Alec.
Alec sat down in his seat and Magnus sat beside him.
"Getting close to the murderer, Bane?" Jonathan asked.
"He's not a murderer shit head." Magnus said.
"Calling me names now Bane, how rude." Jonathan said.
Magnus sighed and he was about to retort but Alec caught Miss Fairchild's gaze and he put a hand on Magnus's shoulder, "Don't you'll just make it worse." He told Magnus.
Magnus nodded and looked away from Jonathan, "You're right, sorry, it's just he's a jerk and you don't deserve being called a murderer because you're not."
Yes you are. The voice hissed.
Alec shut his eyes tightly and willed the voice to go away. He felt Magnus touch his arm and he opened his eyes and saw Magnus's concerned looked.
He relaxed a little bit, but not fully.
"Oh, I see a little incest happening over there?" Jonathan said, which caused a few people to turn their heads and look their way.
"Shut up, Jonathan." Magnus snapped.
"Sorry!" Jonathan said, raising his hands up in defence.
Magnus glared at Jonathan and the bell rung out. "Have a nice day," Miss Fairchild said to class and everyone exited the room. Most of the people ignored her, including her own son, but Alec smiled at her when he walked past.
Alec and Magnus walked down the hall to their next class, "I'm sorry about that in there," Magnus said. "I get that I'm making it worse."
"It's okay," Alec said. "You don't need to apologise."
Magnus smiled and they walked into the classroom and sat in the back, "Are you going to try to talk to Isabelle at lunch today, like we talked about last night?" Magnus asked.
"I'll try," Alec said, "but she probably will try to get away from me."
"Still try," Magnus said.
Have some pies.
