Sorry for not updating.
Still don't own. Surprise! I also don't own Facebook. It's a pity too, I would be so rich if I did.
…
Jace sat next to Magnus, but not before trying to get Alec to open his door.
"Come on Alec, open the door."
All the pair heard was silence. Magnus cursed under his breath, finally relising where Alec was.
"He's on the balcony. He might be on the beach, or the stairs. We won't be able to get to him."
Jace cursed. "We would have to walk all the way down to the beach and then up that staircase. Just let him sulk. He'll come back soon. Or he'll let you in."
Magnus bit his lip. "How do you know?"
Jace shrugged. "It always what he does when he gets angry. He'll be fine. Trust me." Jace stood up but not after asking Magnus another question. "You love him don't you?"
Magnus nodded. Jace repeated Magnus's action before spinning on his heal and walking back down the hall.
Magnus let his head fall back with a sigh. Alec voice rang from the other side.
"Is he gone Magnus?" Magnus sat up shocked before standing back up and dusting himself off.
"Yes he is. Can I come in darling?" Magnus asked slightly breathless.
Alec hestitated but finally let him in. Magnus rush in, taking Alec into his arms immediatly. Alec hugged him back, buring his face into Magnus's shoulder.
"He just had to ruin everything didn't he? By the Angel, sometimes, sometimes I just wish- I wish that he wasn't my father. Is that a bad thing? I wish I had a father that accepted me for who I am and wasn't a homophobe. I wish that my father accepted me and us the way the public did.
"He is going to be so pissed. But I'll call him back later." Alec sighed before brightning.
"Well I suppose it could be worse. That's all he said, so I don't feel bad, yet, until it get's worse."
Magnu stared at his boyfriend. "Your a very strong person, you know that right?" Alec ducked his head and mumbled something that Magnus couldn't hear.
"What was that darling?" Magnus asked.
Alec looked up with a blush staining his cheeks and repeated what he said. "I love you Magnus. Thank you for being here with me as I go through this crazy time. Your like a light in the darkness."
Magnus blushed, a very deep red as Alec stared and ran off only to come back with a camera. He took a photo of Magnus blushing and then held the camera far above his head as Magnus tried and failed to get the camera back.
"Alec! Give me the camera! I swear I won't delete it I just want to see the photo." Alec searched his face for untruthfullness and when he saw none, he slowly gave the camera to Magnus a crossed his arms as he watched Magnus.
Magnus quickly took a photo of Alec with him standing like that, then if his look of surprise. He looked at the photos as Alec tackled his to the ground tickling Magnus. He stole the camera and took a photo of Magnus laughing and begging Alec to stop tickling him.
"Stop! Please!" Magnus gasped. Alec thought about it and while he considered it Magnus flipped their positions so he was tickling Alec. Magnus stole the camera and took so many photos of Alec. Then he grabbed his phone and opened the photo app as he leaned down and kissed Alec, snapping a photo of them as he did.
He then sat up and snapped another one of Alec, this one was head on Alec's eyes shining with happiness and his mouth turned up into a heart breaking beautiful smile.
Magnus got up and laid down next to Alec as he laced their fingers together, but then moved so his head was on Alec chest, staring up at Alec, the some of the moon's rays that were hitting him in the face making his face light up, with all of their limbs intangled. A quiet but comfortable silence that for once wasn't broken. (Izzy actually opened the door, very quietly ao they didn't hear, and took photos (on Alec's phone) of them lying like that, with so much love in their gaze. It was to be posted to Facebook later on Izzy's account for her birthday gift to Alec. He would love it later.)
Izzy quietly closed the door but then knocked again. There was a lot of grumbling but soon enough Alec opened the door and let her in without a word.
"Are you alright brother?" Alec shrugged. "I guess as alright as I can be."
Izzy walked over to hug Alec and after she did just that she asked Alec what she wanted to ask him. "So do you still want to go out for dinner?"
As Alec though about it, and idea struck Izzy. She gasped as Alec and Magnus looked at her oddly. In a strange voice she called to Magnus. "Magnus we need to talk to everyone in tghe living room. Yes without Alec." She said answering Magnus's question that he didn't say outloud. Magnus looked at Alec who just shrugged and then got up to follow Izzy.
As soon as they got to the living room everyone looked up with puffy eyes and very red eyes. All accept Jace, Ragnor, Raphael and Izzy. Magnus relised that someone had told the group what Alec had been through.
With a huff Magnus turned to Izzy with questioning eyes.
"Guys, I have an idea. I want, for Alec's birthday, to post a video of pictures of Magnus and Alec together for the past few days on to Facebook." Izzy looked around the room, glad to see that her new friends were glad to take on the challenge.
"Alright so who has photos of them?" Izzy asked clapping her hands together after the idea was silently aprroved.
Ragnor, Raphael, Izzy, Jace, and Magnus raised their hands. Izzy after looking around at who did, nodded.
Clary piped up. "I can draw a picture of them, if we want to. Someone just has to get me them together- wait never mind. I have an idea of what to draw. Remeber when we went down to the beach today? I can draw Alec and Magnus sitting together, by the water holding hands as the tide comes in."
Izzy clapped her hands exicted. "Okay everyone send the photos to me please. And Clary? Get to work on that photo. Now you four." Izzy tapped her chin.
"Tessa can distract with Caterina, while Will and I can but together the video with music and stuff."
Izzy nodded. "That would be perfect. You'll also have to distract Magnus."
Magnus nodded and heard light footsteps. He whisper shouted 'Alec's come. Shut up!'
Alec walked into the living room. "Hey guys I'm looking for my phone? Have you seen it?" They all looked at each other waiting for someone to lie.
Magnus sighed and did just that. "After you left Will took it to his room to try and fix it. He'll tell you when it's good as new."
Everyone waited to see if Alc would take Magnus up on the lie or not. Alec dismissed it and took a closer look at their faces and eyes, that clearly had been crying. He turned towards Magnus, his face a perfect mixture of sadness and anger.
"You told them, didn't you? By the Angel, Magnus you promised that you wouldn't!" Alec said letting his emotions control his voice. To his ears he sounded angry with a touch of sadness.
Izzy shook her head. "No he didn't Alec. Jace and I did." Alec turned to her shocked completely forgetting about Magnus. (well not completely, Magnus was hard to forget.)
"You two? How did you guys know?" Alec asked surprised. "Oh we heard you screams of pain as our 'loving father' hit you." Izzy said, her voice full of sarcasm.
Alec was quieted at that. "We'll talk about that later. I want call dad back. I have to talk to him."
"Do you have to do it tonight?" Jace asked from where he was sitting on the couch with Clary.
Alec sighed. "I want to do it tonight so I can get this over with."
Jace and Izzy looked at each other before Jace passed Alec his phone.
Alec looked up from his father's number and into everyone in the room. "I want you guys to be here, but only if you want to be. I'll be putting him on speaker if no one intrupes. Izzy, I mean you."
Izzy shrugged and half smiled at her brother. Then Alec looked around the room. No one had moved.
"We want to be here for you Alec." Jem said. "We believe that you can do this." Will added.
With the help of his friends, Alec hit his father's number and then put it on speaker.
He sat on the couch with Magnus, Izzy, Jace and Clary. When his father picked up he took a deep breath in as Magnus grabbed his hand for support.
"Izzy, get your brother on the damn phone, I need to talk to him about this disease!" Robert shouted.
"Father, I'm right here." Alec said, trying to sooth his nerves.
"Thank the Angel. We need to get you to a hospital or the thearpist again. You need help." Robert said.
"Actaully no, I don't. I'm gay, father. It is not something you change. Even with camps, thearpists or trying to beat me out of it. I will never change." Alec said, giving Magnus's hand a sqeeze when Magnus flinched at the mention of what Alec went through.
"Alec, you just confused. I knew that we should have sent you to the mental house. My son, couldn't be a fag, it would disgrace our family."
Alec got angry then. "No dad! I am not crazy! I'm gay! I am not a fag! I am not a disgrace! Your the one who cheated on Mom and the one who beat your thirteen-year-old son for being gay! So I want you to know this. I am gay and proud about it. I understand now that I will always want your support but I will never get it. So you know what? Screw you Dad. I have tried to make you proud but I wasn't making myself happy. It's time that I try to make myself happy before I try to impress you. And I know, that as long as I call myself gay, I will never make you proud. But that's okay, because now I have people that I can and will make proud. I always thought that there was something wrong with me until I met my boyfriend, Magnus. But in reality, it's you that has something wrong with them. So screw you Dad. Screw you!" Alec finished, looking up at his friends. Izzy's mouth was open, shocked, while Jace was silently laughing.
The rest of group was bug-eyed staring at him. Magnus was smiling slightly that only increased when Alec, smiled and kissed him lightly on the lips before returning his attention back to his silent phone.
"That is it! You are coming home this instant Alexander Lightwood! I have to teach you a lesson." Alec rolled his eyes and moved his hand so it looked like his hands was the one saying it.
Izzy was trying hold back her laughter while Jace was silently laughing.
Alec smiled at people laughing at his joke, not really caring if it was rude or not.
Alec chuckled. "Actually, no dad I'm not. I'm gay and you need to either accept me for who I am, or ingore me. It's your choice really."
Robert was silent for a moment. Alec's heart felt as if it was to burst.
"I'm cutting you from the inhertince. You are not my son. I don't know who you are. Get the hell away from me fag and stay away from my family, you whore!"
Alec chocked, his confidience deflating as Izzy whipped out her hand to end the call.
Silence and tension filled the room as Alec turned his head to look at the group. "Well, that could have gone a lot better." He turned towards Magnus as tears silently streamed down his face. He hugged Magnus and held him like Magnus was his lifeline and the only thing that could save him from the rest of the world.
"Dude, you just came out to Dad! You stood up to him! You even said screw you and imitated him, which is so unlike you!" Jace said.
Alec looked up from Magnus's shoulder with a small smile still hugging Magnus. He let go, but only shifted so he was sitting of his boyfriend's lap.
He smile grew as he just thought of what he did. Suddenely Alec was laughing. "I just told my father to screw himself. Then I imitated him! He took he being gay just as I thought he would, so no surprise there. I just told Dad to screw himself." He said when he finished laughing. "Izzy you should have seen your face when I did that, it was so funny! Your's to Jace. The rest of you were all like so not prepared for that. You looked so scared!" He began to laugh, this time everyone joined minus Raphael, but he's stick in the mud.
The laughed died down as Izzy looked at Jace nervously. "Alec, are you alright?"
Alec had his face towards the ceiling, still in Magnus's lap, but when he heard that he slowly moved his head to the side, as if thinking about. Finally he nodded. "Well, I came out. Dad had the same reaction as I thought he would. So for now, I'll say I'm good, but I'll let you know when the truth hits me flat in the face."
Izzy nodded as silence filled the room again as Jace's phone rang. She checked the caller I.D. and mouthed 'Dad'. Alec took the phone, answered and put it on speaker.
"Alec, do you know why I can't take any of the money that is in your bank account and put it into mine? Have you. Changed the passwords so i can't get in? Because if so I swear-" Robert snapped, cutting himself off, while Izzy gasped and started counting, before turning to Alec with a look of shock on her face.
Alec looked up at Izzy and replied, "No, but I think Izzy does."
Alec gestured for her to speak. "Dad, what time is it there in the US?"
"Three am ish. Why?" Robert said, while Izzy began to smile her devil's smile.
"Well Dad, today, offically, from about three hours ago, the reason you can't take Alec's money and put it into your account is because your money, is now Alec's. Alec just got your multi-million coportation and there is nothing that you can do to get it back. Alec just turned twenty one so he legally owns your company and all of your money and the money the company makes." Izzy said proudly.
Alec was shocked as was the rest of the group. Everyone's mouth was open, staring bug eyed at Alec.
"There has to be a way that I can get the money back, I mean come on! I bet he plan this! All he wanted was my money without me in the way!"
Alec rolled his eyes while Izzy said, "Nope. You signed the paperwork that makes it impossible to go back on your word. Also trust me on this one, Alec did not plan this one. Good night father. I hope you have enough money to stay afloat, because we are not going to help you trust me. He owns everything now. Everything." With that Izzy hanged up and gave Jace his phone back with a shrug.
"I can never say no to a dramtic opening or closing." Izzy said
Everyone relaxed and ordered pizza. They toasted to Alec's birthday, and he got many kisses from Magnus. At some point in the night Magnus dissapered for awhile and didn't come back.
Alec went looking and finally found him on the balacony facing towards the sea.
Magnus heard him walk up beside him but didn't react.
Finally Magnus talked. "I hate myself for not saying anything to your father to defend you. I should have Alec. I should have been there for you, backing you up. Instead I said nothing. Why did I do that?"
"First. It probably would have made it worse if anyone else said anything. My dad would sick his-sorry my- lawyers on you for something. Second. Having you there holding my hand was plenlty. Everyone being there was perfect. Even if it did turn out that I now have a multi-million company, but whatever."
Magnus sighed at that. "Do you really not care at all about all of the money you just got?"
Alec shrugged. "Money can't replace love. Money can't replace you Magnus. So therefore, it doesn't matter."
Magnus smiled before saying. "My my. Sappy tonight aren't we darling."
Alec half smiled. "Yeah." Magnus turned to go back inside, about to ask Alec if he wanted to come with him, when he saw Alec bathed in moonlight, looking out at the waves, happy and carefree looking.
Magnus ran over to the vanity, set his phone up so it would take the photo with Magnus in it. He propped it up, made sure it was the right angle, turned off sound and flash, and hit the go button. He walked back over to Alec and took Alec's hand in his own and looked at Alec while Alec stared out at the ocean.
After awhile of standing like that Magnus walked over and looked at the photo. They looked good. Magnus decided. This was going in the video.
He sent the photo to Izzy along with the ones from the camera (Magnus downloaded them to his phone.) and all the rest of them.
M~here you go Iz. These are all of them.
I~crap. You have so many.
M~i know. Use them wisely.
I~they're all really good. Everyone's are.
I~we'll have to decided tomorrow.
M~ to bed. Night.
He shut his phone of and went up to Alec. "Ready for bed?" He asked.
Alec shook his head no. "Let's enjoy the veiw a little while longer."
Magnus nodded, turned on his heals to grabbed blankets and to turn off the lights.
He returned to Alec and tossed the blanket over them. "I love you Alec. Happy birthday." He leaned over and kissed Alec but then continued to enjoy the early morning stars with his boyfriend.
