Aku Cinta Kamu

II : Immortality is a burden

Magnus

When Camille told me that Alexander has been going behind my back to try to take away my immortality. I didn't believe her. I didn't want to believe her.

But I felt Alexander leaving the bed. I heard him closing the door. It was so early in the morning, why would he get up at that point of time? So I followed him. And my heart broke with every step he took. He was walking to the subway station. The place that Camille said he would be.

Up until then, I was still hoping that maybe it was all a misunderstanding, that maybe Alexander had a good reason why he woke up so early in the morning. But when he walked into the subway station, holding the witchlight, I knew that it was true. What Camille said was true. He really wanted to take my immortality.

I wanted to hear his explanation for doing this. Yet at the same time I don't. If I hear it, I probably would just forgive him and kiss the life out of him. So I didn't let him finish explaining.

I'm an immortal, he's a mortal. I still remember that day so vividly. That day where i comforted Tessa for the whole day, the day that William died. If I don't leave Alexander soon, I would have to go through what Tessa went through. And just by looking at her, it was obvious how much pain she was in.

I have been thinking about this issue for quite some time now. A voice at the back of my head was nagging at me not to break up with Alec. But I reasoned with myself: if I leave him now, slowly as time goes by, I would forgot him and I'll just continue to party all night long, leading my life just like how i did before I met him.

When those words leave my mouth, I could clearly see the amount of pain Alexander is going through. I studied his face carefully, I wondered if I had gone to far, maybe I shouldn't have added the pet warlock part.

"Magnus-" his soft voice whispered.

I immediately cut him off, I couldn't hear his voice right now. And besides, I know what he's going to say and it's not something I want to hear.

"Alec. Don't bother. Camille told me everything,"

He was holding back his tears, I could see it clearly now. I didn't know what happened but one moment I was standing there and the other I was kissing him.

I kissed him slowly, knowing this is probably the last time I'm going to taste this lips.

"Aku Cinta Kamu," these three words slipped out before I can even stop them.

Seeing Alec's confused face, I relaxed. He didn't know what it meant.

"What does it mean?" He asked, his voice sounded very raspy but still the voice that I love so much. Too much.

I didn't reply but instead turned around and walked out of the subway station. I walked slowly, wondering if he would come running after me. Part of my wanted him to do that. But it doesn't matter what I wanted, because he didn't. He didn't come after me.

I kind of didn't really like this chapter...& the main idea of this whole thing if from COHF. I just changed it and phrased it differently.

Hoped you enjoyed this chapter in Magnus POV. At least, in how I think Magnus would react.
