I'm a terrible person, I know! but this past weeks have been hell for me :P I just got out of school and in the last two weeks I had a lot of exams and homework to do and I was not able to update :P I appologize. You have no idea how many times I wanted to post a new chapter, but I couldn't because of the stress and blah! I'm sorry :(

I hope you like this chapter...it is just a filler, but hopefully will make you hold unto something :P again, sorry for the late update! but hopefully, now that I'm on vacations I'll be able to post more often! :D No promises, though :P

I own nothing!

The silence was the worst part…The long hours filled with nothing but silence and the sound of the heart monitor that was connected to Alec were Magnus's only company. Three days. Three days had he been stuck in the horrific hospital room, just waiting for a miracle to happen.

It was Monday now and Alec had been admitted into the hospital since Friday night. A family dinner had gone terribly wrong, a fist-fight with Robert Lightwood, and Alec ended with 5 stitches on the back of his head. The doctors had said the blood loss Alec had suffered had been quite a lot, so it was normal for Alec to wake up until a few days had passed…They kept getting him painkillers so it wouldn't hurt too bad when he woke up. Alec's head had collided against the coffee table too hard and had cracked his skull. Magnus could only remember seeing his boyfriend unconscious in a pool of his own blood and it was the worse sight ever. Magnus shivered just thinking about it.

The designer pushed his chair closer to Alec's bed. Magnus had a tight hold on the photographer's hand. Magnus sighed, kissing his boyfriend's knuckles.

"Please wake up darling" Magnus whispered "Please come back with me"

Magnus closed his eyes and rested his head against his arms that were crossed over Alec's bed. He still didn't let go of Alec's hand. He had been holding unto it since he had arrived…well, since they had let him see Alec.

When they arrived at the ER the doctors had taken Alec straight to surgery. They made the blood stop flooding from the back of his head and had to stitch him up with 5 stitches to close the gap. Afterwards, the doctors hadn't let Magnus see Alec, which just made his nerves get even worse.

A Dr. Milton walked into the waiting room followed by a nurse. He was looking over some paperwork and then his eyes surfed the area. His eyes stopped on the Lightwood, Clary, Simon, and Magnus. He smiled softly at them and walked closer.

"How is he?" Isabelle asked immediately, standing up as the doctor approached them.

"He'll be fine" Dr. Milton assured her "We had to put 5 stitches on the back of his head, but he has stopped bleeding and will recover in no time"

"Can we see him?" Maryse Lightwood asked.

"He's still unconscious" Dr. Milton answered "You can see him, but I'm afraid that since it is out of visiting hours, only his family can see him"

"What about us?" Clary asked pointing at herself, Simon, and Magnus "When will we be able to see him?"

"Visiting hours start tomorrow at 10am" The nurse that was behind Dr. Milton informed them "They last 2 hours…and then again until 5pm but it only lasts one hour"

"I'm not waiting until tomorrow to see Alexander!" Magnus exclaimed standing up walking towards the nurse and doctor. He had been pacing nonstop since they arrived and Alec had been taken into surgery. Everyone had tried to get him to sit down, but he refused. He was too nervous to be still

"I'm afraid you'll have to, Mr. Bane" the nurse said, knowing Magnus for his magazine "You're not his family, therefore you can't see him now"

"I'm his boyfriend" Magnus growled "I'm just as close to him as his family!"

"The rules are the rules" the nurse said glaring at the designer.

"You'll let me see my boyfriend TODAY! I don't care about your stupid rules! I'm not waiting to see the love of my life until tomorrow! Do you understand?!" Magnus snapped

"It's quite alright, Ms. Williams" Dr. Milton told the nurse "Mr. Bane can be considered part of Alexander's family…you may see him now"

It had broken Magnus's heart to see Alec lying over the white sheets of the hospital bed all pale and dead-looking. The only thing that reassured him that Alec was not dead was the constant beeps of the heart monitor that was connected to Alec.

Afterwards Dr. Milton had informed them that only one of them could stay with Alec over-night. They had agreed that Magnus should stay, seeing as Maryse had to go back to work the next day and Jace had an interview early the next morning. Isabelle had offered to stay, but Isabelle had offered to stay, but had decided to let Magnus stay. Magnus had saved her brother's life…both of them. If Magnus hadn't stopped Robert from hitting Alec any further, her oldest brother would probably be dead just like Max. She couldn't have that. It was still hard for her to accept Max was gone, she couldn't lose another brother.

Magnus took a shaky breath as he continued to listen to the slow pace of the beeps in the heart-monitor. As much as he wanted to feel reassured by them, he couldn't. Even if they indicated that Alec was indeed alive, all Magnus wanted was to see those bright blue eyes again. He missed them. He missed Alec. Having their fingers intertwined, to feel Alec's fingers running through his hair, to see Alec's beautiful eyes looking at him in that loving way he always seemed to be looking at Magnus, to feel those soft lips against him…

Magnus's memories were painfully pulling into his mind. He wanted to shut it all down. To just close his eyes, fall asleep, forget what had happened, and have a few seconds of peace. It was killing him being here and having no response from Alec. Magnus continued to talk to him, telling him small stories, or just updating him on what was happening outside the hospital. Magnus had read somewhere that talking helped the unconscious wake up, but he wasn't sure it was working. He kept trying though, hoping it would miraculously work and get Alec to wake up.

Magnus's train of thoughts broke off when he heard the sound of his phone going off, signaling an upcoming call. Magnus sighed as he saw the caller ID. It was from the Prestigious magazine's office. He had been ignoring their calls for the last three days. People that worked for the magazine had been asking about Alec, see how he was doing, but Magnus didn't want any information to get out. He had talked this with Alec's siblings and they all had agreed to keep it away from the public eye. Alec didn't need the press over him when he was in the hospital…especially for the reason he was there. If news got out about the fight with Robert Lightwood, things would end badly.

Now, however, Magnus knew he couldn't continue ignoring the calls anymore. He had to answer eventually. It was his magazine, his job. He had to take care of it. He didn't want to. He wished he could stay there until Alec woke up without anyone bothering him…but he couldn't.

"Bane speaking" Magnus answered the phone. He sighed as he heard the voice of the publisher on the other side of the phone. "Woolsey…I know we had to do it, but Alec's the photographer….no! We can't do it without him….I'm not asking Sebastian Verlac to replace Alec…no way….no! He's working for The Clave! …Just move the date of the photo-shoot…I'm not doing it without Alexander…he'll wake up! ...No, I don't care…goodbye Woolsey"

Magnus sighed putting his phone away. He buried his face on his hands. It all was just too much. He knew he was neglecting his job, but he couldn't do it…not without Alec. It just felt wrong working without Alec. Plus, he wasn't going to leave the hospital any time soon.

The designer was too stressed, over-thinking everything that he didn't notice Alec's bright eyes looking at him curiously.

So? Like it? :$ Hope it was enough...sorry if I didn't really took you out of the cliff-hanger :P but oh well...next chapter perhaps ;)
