*5 days later*

"Why? Why is he like this?" I muttered bitterly to myself while I was pacing round my room.

Alec hadn't talked to me since the last hunt and I didn't know what I had done to annoy him. His emotions were like the tide, constantly changing and it was exhausting to keep up with what mood he was in.

There was a loud knock on the door and my heart skipped a beat, thinking that it could be Alec. I wanted him to explain why he was acting the way he was, why he was suddenly ignoring me. Flinging the door open, I was slightly disappointed to see Jace standing there looking slightly impatient.

"What's up Jace?" I looked at him with worry splashed on my face, Jace never came to my room unless it was vitally important.

"Alec needs to talk to you... Like right now!" Jace was grinning like a little kid, and it was obvious that he knew something that I didn't.

He walked away before I even had the chance to ask him anything else and I forced myself to leave my bedroom and find Alec. I didn't know what to expect, what did he want to talk to me about? Judging by Jace's facial expression, it wasn't anything too horrible.

Running down the stairs, I made my way to the main room in the Institute where I could hear Alec grunting inside.

Walking inside slowly, I saw Alec training with his top off and I felt the breath being forced out my lungs. His muscles were rippling as he punched the punching bag and I could tell that he was solely focused on his exercise. It was a beautiful sight and I watched him for a few more seconds before deciding to let him be aware of my presence.

Coughing slightly, Alec turned his attention to me and his eyes suddenly widened slightly. He stopped punching the bag and went over to grab his hoodie which he pulled over his head.

"You wanted to talk?" I said, standing in front of him, raising an eyebrow slightly.

I didn't want him to know that him ignoring me had hurt me massively, I wanted to play things cool.

"No one is quite like you, you know that?" he was looking down to the floor, obviously feeling awkward.

His words took me off guard and I didn't quite know how to react to them at first. Was this his way of saying that he had feelings for me? Had he been ignoring me because he was afraid of his own feelings?

"Alec, what are you trying to say?" I asked, already feeling my heart beat faster.

He looked up and I met his hazel eyes which had intrigued me so much the first time I saw him, and I could tell that he had conflicted emotions.

"Fuck it," he muttered to himself and that's when it happened.

Cupping my face, Alec pressed his lips onto mine and we kissed passionately. I wasn't sure what to do with my hands so I wrapped them around his neck, running my hands through his hair. The kiss was slow and soft, as well as being full of so much pent up passion.

He pulled away and grinned at me widely, looking the most happy I had ever seen him. Blushing, I couldn't help but smile as well; I had dreamt of kissing him ever since I had met him. And finally my dreams had come true.
