4. Chapter 4

Alec made it to bed. Alec started reading his book on the table, which he read every night. When he felt someone sit at the end of his bed, Alec laid the book down and looked at the end of his bed. He felt someone move up beside him in bed. Alec almost wanted to jump out of bed and leave the room, but he wanted to see what that someone would do. Like Alec felt before, it wasn't bad. Then he felt tapping on the book he was reading. Alec looked at his book. Then Alec looked at the side. He felt all the moving.

"Do you want me to read to you?"

Alec felt the tap again. So, he took that as a yes. He picked up his book and started reading it out loud. It was called Lost Among the Living by Simone St. James. It's a mystery and a love story. Magnus was amazed to hear what Alec was reading. Magnus moved closer to Alec and laid his head on the pillow. Alec felt all this movement but kept reading. Finally, after an hour, Alec put the book on the table next to him. He turned out the light and lay down. Alec started to fall asleep when he felt a hand touch his face. Alec opened his eyes but was in that half-asleep state. He saw a golden glowy mist lying right beside him in bed. He didn't move because he didn't want it to go away. Alec smiled and then drifted off to sleep. Magnus, for the first time, let someone see him, well, his energy. Alec was unique, and he liked Alec a lot. He was hoping they could help each other in some way.

The next morning, Izzy beat on the door. Alec jumped up and looked around the room. He remembered what he saw before he fell asleep.

"Please, don't scare my sister or mess with her in any way."

That's when Alec felt a hand on his shoulder. He looked that way. Then he felt a hand on his face. Alec shut his eyes and smiled.

"Alec, I let myself in. Wake up and come to get something to eat."

"I'm coming."

He got up, put a shirt on and his slippers, and left the room.

"Well, after we eat, we can go apartment hunting."

"About that, Izzy."

"You're not moving now? What made you change your mind?"

"Well, I like it here, and I think it will be better now."

"Is it your friend?"

After she said that, the little radio in the kitchen came on, and it was playing La Vie en Rose by Louis Armstrong. Then, Dream A Little Dream Of Me came on. Alec smiled.

"Is that?"

Alec smiled at Izzy.
