Malec one-shots

Hard Times

This story takes place a two weeks after Max dies.

Alec was trying to get his key into the Magnus' lock but when he couldn't get it he threw his key across the hall of the apartment building.

Alec layed down on the floor tears rolling down his cheeks.

What was the point in life, everything was the same, he woke up and fought demons, came home super late an went to sleep and sometimes if he was lucky he would be bothered to make some dinner but he hadn't been bothered to do much since his brother Max had died.

When Alec got sad he didn't talk to people about his feelings instead he hit things and cried which I'd why fighting demons was good for him, it was either killing demons or punching and screaming into his pillow.

After an hour or so of laying on the floor Magnus opened the the door which hit Alecs back.

"Alexander?" Magnus asked in confusion. "Oh, Alec what's wrong?"

Alec didn't look at him he just kept thinking of the list of things he could have done as a good big brother to save Max.

"Alexander, come inside." Magnus told him.

Alec still didn't look at Magnus he stood up and walked inside.

"Alec, what- why- are you OK?" Magnus asked.

"I'm fine I just didn't have my key." Alec replied.

"What happened to it?" Magnus questioned.

"I threw it, down the hall." Alec told him.

"Why?" Asked Magnus.

"I couldn't get it to unlock the door." Alec explained.

"Why didn't you just knock?"

Alec shrugged.

"Are you hungry?" Asked Magnus. "I ordered some pizza earlier I can heat it up in the microwave if you like."

Alec shook hid head.

"Really? It's your favourite, pinnaple and ham, I don't know why you like fruit on your pizza but I got half and half so we could share."

"A tomato is a fruit." Alec told him looking dull. "Therefore you got a fruit pizza as well.

" I have been alive for centuries Alec and I've never ever heard anyone say that. "Magnus said trying to be funny but Alec didn't laugh he just stared not a Magnus but as the wall.

" Are you tired? " Magnus asked but Alec didn't respond.

Alec sat their for a while and Magnus put a blanket on his back.

A twelve year old Alec was walking down the hall towards his baby brothers bedroom.

A Little two year old Max was in his crib bouncing up and down exited that his big brother was here.

"Hello Maxy, are you ready for lunch? Izzys making you a peanut butter and jelly sandwich and now that I think about it I probably shouldnt let izzy near the kitchen." said Alec more to himself then to the baby.

Max started making strange baby sounds which made Alec laugh.

Alec picked up the baby and began carrying him to the kitchen.

" Jace will be in their as well, you like jace don't you? My little max. " Alec said.

"Jace, Jace!" Said max.

But then Max stared saying weird stuff like: Go away, bad, leave us alone, please.

Alec was confused and a little concerned.
