"Magnus?" Alec whispered. They were sitting in front of the couch, on the floor, Alec between Magnus's legs, watching Project Runway. Well, Magnus was. Alec had been staring at Magnus, watching him, for the past however long they had been watching PR.
"Yeah?" Magnus answered, eyes immediately turning to Alec.
Alec bit his lip and Magnus must have noticed how he tensed, because he said, "What? Alec, you can say it...or ask it...is this about before I met you?"
Slowly, Alec looked up at him.
"Is this about past girlfriends? Or boyfriends?" Magnus asked him.
Alec shook his head. "No." He spoke quietly.
"Oh."
Silence.
Then, "Who was your father?"
Instantly Alec clapped a hand over his mouth, looking horrified. "No, oh my gods, I'm sorry, Magnus-"
"No, you deserve to know," Magnus said softly.
"Magnus-"
"Alec," Magnus interrupted firmly.
It had been a month since they got together, after their break up. (CoLS.)
Alec sighed. "Magnus, I'm serious, I don't know why that came out, I mean, I don't know why I said that, I know why it came out," he started.
"Alec, we promised no lies. We agreed to tell each other everything. "
"I know, and...I don't want a repeat of...then," Alec said softly.
"Me neither. Besides, it came out because I hide away, I don't tell you anything about myself and because you, like anyone else, get curious," Magnus told him, smiling, though he sounded a bit bitter.
"My father was a demon from Hell."
Magnus's bluntness startled Alec. He was usually the blunt one. And the expression on Magnus's face scared him a bit. He moved closer to his boyfriend.
"When I was little, my mother hung herself in our shed, because of me. She was scared, ashamed. Everyone hated me. I was beaten, starved..." Magnus told his sad story, and Alec listened like a little boy, a disturbed expression on his face.
When Magnus finished, he looked at Alec, expecting to see sympathy. Instead, he saw love. Pure love. Alec gently kissed him, fingers tracing Magnus's arms.
"I am so sorry, and I wish..."
"What?"
"Nothing, it's...stupid."
"Alec!"
"Okay, okay. I wish I had been there to help you and...I don't know."
Alec bit his lip, looking embarrassed, a blush blooming across his face. It made Magnus smile.
He realized how insecure Alec still was and reminded him he was only eighteen, whereas Magnus was 800. He leaned forward and kissed Alec gently.
"Thank you. That means a lot."
Bad ending, I know. I'm sorry. I gotta go, bye! I love you all! :)
