(First of all - thank you so much for the reviews and stuff, I hope you're going keep reading it and if you have some ideas about what should happen you can always write something, otherwise just please continue to give me feedback! Enjoy! :) )

After a while Jace finally could convince Alec to follow him down to the kitchen to get some ice for his eye. Alec followed him like a child, head down, he didn't want to run in to someone, especially not his father.

"Sit down" Jace said and drew out a chair. "You know, I could always use a rune-" he tried but Alec stopped him before he could go on

"No rune...let it be."

Although the scars on the outside could be fixed, Jace couldn't fix what was broken inside of him.

"Could you please just tell me what happened?" Jace tried again and sat down next to Alec.

He showed him the bag of ice, wanting Alec to approve that he was going to touch him, before he placed one hand on Alec's shoulder so he wouldn't jerk back again and held the ice against his eye - Alec let him.
Although their relationship never had been on a physical plan he felt calmer by his parabatai's touch - closer than brothers. Still he didn't like to show himself weak in front of anyone, especially not Jace; they lived together, trained together, fought together. It really was a special band between them.

"He hit me" Alec mumbled and he could feel Jace tense.

"He hit you?" Jace replied, he could hear that he was upset. "Why would he do that?"

"Great, so you don't believe me-" Alec stood up but Jace was to fast for him as he pulled him down again

"It's not that Alec - why would he do that?" Jace try again, determined to convince Alec that he was on his side - because he was.

"What do you think? Because of my relationship with Magnus of course" Alec cried "I shouldn't have known that he wouldn't accept it, he never will - who want's his son to be gay?"

"I-I would" Jace stammered before it was too late but at least it made Alec crack up a little

"Yeah, sure you would."

Both of them then went silent for a while. Alec could still taste some blood in his mouth mixed with the salt from his tears.
Why couldn't he stop crying?

"I'm calling Magnus." Jace mumbled

"No! You can't do that-"

"Of course I can and I will, so he can talk to you and Robert or I will!"

"Jace!" Alec cried out once again and grabbed his arm

"By the Angel what are you two doing?"

In the doorway stood his mother, giving them both a strange look.
