Here's the update! Sorry for the cliffhanger :)
I HAVE BIG NEWS COMING! So wait until the end notes to find out :D
I own nothing but the plot and OCs.
"Keep your hands off him, you freak!" Anne cried.
That was the first thing Magnus heard when they burst out of the bar. The parking lot was empty except for a few cars parked and the three people in the middle of it. Annelice was standing between Matthew and Eddie. She was standing in front of Eddie, acting as a human barrier.
"Anne...come on, let it go" Eddie was pleading with her.
"Anne! Get away from him" Ragnor called rushing towards the group.
"What's going on?" Alec asked as he saw the scene in front of them.
"Matthew" Magnus sighed.
He stayed behind and decided to cut in only if necessary. He knew what could happen in there, and he only hoped Ragnor could stop it in time before things got nasty. It had happened a few times before where Eddie and Matthew would get in a fight, though it didn't turn violent unless Matthew was really drunk...which Magnus hoped he was not.
"Who is that jerk anyways?"
Magnus turned around at the sound of that voice and found Isabelle walking out of the bar followed by the brown-haired man Magnus had seen inside.
"His name is Matthew, and he's Eddie's soulmate" Magnus explained.
There were some screams coming from the group in the middle of the parking lot and everyone turned to see what was going on. Matthew had his finger pointed at Eddie, spatting out something. Eddie had his arms around Anne, holding her back as she screamed and cursed at Matthew. Ragnor was trying to stop Matthew from approaching Eddie or Anne.
"What heppened here?" the brown-haired man asked.
"What I want to know is what happened back there" Alec cut in "Can someone explain what's going on? and why Magnust got on a fight with Jace?"
"I didn't get in a fight with him" Magnus protested.
"Is this really the time to discuss this?" Catarina hissed with a frown "Matt is about to get in a fight with Ragnor and Eddie won't be able to hold Anne back for longer"
"Shouldn't we call the police?" the man next to Izzy suggested.
"You do that" Magnus nodded "I'll go help Eddie"
"Magnus!" Kathy called "Don't let him get hurt"
"I won't" Magnus promised.
Seeing Magnus walking towards the fight, Alec decided to follow him and help. He knew if it came to that, they would need to put that Matthew guy down, and he would rather not have Magnus getting hurt over it.
"Anne, snap out of it!" Magnus called reaching her and Eddie
"That son of a bitch had it coming!" Anne roared
"You ain't doing nothing!" Magnus snapped back "You get near him, he breaks you in two. Now calm down because you're not helping!"
"You know what?!" Matthew snapped "I don't need this shit! Edward, let's go"
Eddie hesitated, turning to look between Matthew and Magnus. Ragnor had his eyes trained on Matthew, making sure he did not come back from where he was already walking off.
"Eddie" Magnus warned "Don't"
"But..." Eddie trailed off
"Edward!" Matthew turned around and noticed Eddie had not moved from his place. "What are you waiting for?"
"Go home" Eddie called, his voice trembling "Just...just go home"
"Fine" Matthew snapped "Whatever"
Matthew stumbled a little bit as he turned around, obviously losing his balance due to the alcohol. Eddie let out a sob as he watching him go, but did not move from his place.
"Oh Eddie" Anne sighed, her aggressive attitude disappeared instantly as she reached forward to hug him.
"I think we should go home now" Catarina spoke as she approached them, followed by Kathy, Isabelle and her partner.
"Eddie can't drive like this" Kathy said softly, looking at her friend with worry in her eyes.
"I'll take you" Alec offered "We live in the same building anyways"
"You do?" Magnus asked surprised
"yeah...I thought you knew?" Alec asked confused.
"No, I'm fine" Eddie shook his head "I can drive"
"Eddie, I really don't think..." Catarina started
"I'm fine!" Eddie snapped "Just...let's just get out of here"
"Come on Eddie" Anne soothed "Let Alexander take you and Kathy home"
"I'll go with you" Magnus said, giving his keys to Ragnor "Can you take my car?"
"Yeah, alright" he nodded.
"Isabelle" Alec called "Tell Jace and Clary what happened...I'll see you guys tomorrow"
"Dude...are you seriously just leaving with a bunch of strangers?" the man next to Izzy asked
"Simon" Izzy shook her head at him
"They're not strangers" Alec glared at him
"He is Magnus Bane" Izzy nodded towards Magnus "I told you about him"
"Oh! He's THE MB?" Simon asked "I expected him to be less...sparkly"
"Excuse me?" Magnus raised an eyebrow
"Shut up Simon" Alec groaned "Come on...let's just go"
Everyone started to walk towards the cars while Izzy and Simon went back inside. Catarina took Ragnor's car while Ragnor took Magnus's. Anne went towards her own car after forcing Magnus to promise he would call if something happened.
Alec directed them towards his car. Eddie and Kathy climbed in the back while Magnus took the front seat. The drive was silent, Eddie had stopped sniffing and Kathy was sweetly rubbing his hand. Once they reached the apartment building, all of them climbed out, Kathy with some difficulty but managed with the help of Alec. They used the elevator, no one saying a word about anything. Once they reached Eddie's apartment door, he opened it and rushed towards his room, locking the door behind him.
"He just needs to sleep on it" Kathy said sadly "We'll talk to him tomorrow"
"Yeah" Magnus nodded "You should go to sleep as well"
"I will" Kathy smiled "Good night to both of you. And thank you for the ride Alec"
"Glad to help" Alec smiled.
Kathy smiled at both of them before walking off towards her own room. After being left alone on the apartment, Magnus walked towards the living room and motioned for Alec to follow him.
Both of them took a seat on the sofa and Magnus let out a huge sigh, finally being able to relax.
"I'm sorry you had to go through that" Magnus murmured.
"I'm sorry I wasn't much help" Alec said back.
"You were plenty of help" Magnus said "We would probably still be fighting with Jace if not for you"
"Talking about Jace...I'm so sorry for him" Alec said turning his eyes towards him "He did not hurt you, did he?"
"No, he didn't" Magnus shook his head.
"It was just a really bad week" Alec sighed "For him at least..."
"It's alright" Magnus said "At least he beat the shit out of Matthew, so I'm okay with that"
"But you defended Matthew" Alec said confused
"He's Eddie's soulmate" Magnus whispered "I was not about to let my friend's soulmate get beaten by a douche...sorry, but he is a douche for me"
"Jace can be a jerk" Alec chuckled "But...if Matthew is Eddie's soulmate...why was he hitting on Clary and Izzy?"
"That's what he was doing?" Magnus asked surprised
"That's what Simon told me" Alec shrugged "Izzy and Clary can take care of themselves...but Jace did not take it too kindly."
"Matthew is an ass" Magnus sighed deeply
"Is your friend going to be alright?" Alec asked softly
"I don't know" Magnus sighed "Matthew...he's dragging him down. I'm afraid of what could happen"
"He'll be alright" Alec said "He's got you all as friends...He won't be alone"
Magnus smiled at him before snuggling against his side. Alec was surprised but quickly relaxed and wrapped his arm around Magnus's shoulders, pulling him closer.
"I'm glad I got to see you today" Magnus whispered
"I was not expecting that" Alec nodded
"Pity it had to end the way it did" Magnus sighed, closing his eyes.
"I don't know...right now it is looking pretty great"
