Malec AU

Chapter 6

POV Magnus

After sitting on a bench for about an hour, i start to realise that this bench is probably my home for the next week. Then some random homeless guy throws a tiny rock at my arm. “Get off ma Bench”

What?

Another rock hits me

“gett” i stand up grab my stuff and leave. Sigh. there goes that idea. Maybe the library will take me in again. ((yes again))

By the time i walk over there it’s closed.

“Fuck” i sit on the curb angry, cold, and alone. A car drives by, then slowly reverses and stops in front of me. What the hell? The window rolls down and i see the girl from earlier... alec’s sister i think.

“Hey!” she yells out to me “ what are you doing out this late?”

“And you care why?” i throw a glare towards her. She gave the biggest sigh that would impress wind gods and threw the shift in park, sitting next to me on the curb.

“ your magnus?”

i just look at her

“Alec’s friend right?

She didn’t bother waiting for an answer

“Yea, i can give you a ride home if you want to get out of the cold.” she helps me up. “Im Izzy by the way.”

We get in the car and when she asks for directions i ask her “what made you think i have a home to go to.” she looks at me…

“Oh… you can just come to our house then. If that’s okay by you? Jace is still in the guest room, but I’m sure the school fighter won’t mind sharing a room.” she smirks.

“Alec?”

“Yea, my brother. Mr. Alexander Lightwood, though he prefers Alec.”

Heh “Alexander suits him better.”

“Try telling him that and you will get pinned”

We laugh as she pulls into the driveway of a large house, it’s almost triple the size of the two roomed hovel i call….called a home. I surprised there’s only one guest room.

She pulls into the one empty space in there three car garage. Holy hell. We walk in through the door and down a hallway and right into a open kitchen with a island/breakfast bar in the middle to my right is what i guess is the living room.

There is a huge couch and flat screen that currently playing some football round, Izzy goes and sits changing the channel to some detective show.

“Oh hello” I turn and see a small women with dark brown hair. cooking something that smells probably as close to heaven as i’m gonna get thought it would be without a tall blond boy trying to sneak a bite. “Jace!”

She lifts a spoon in mock anger

“Sorry ma’am” he backs away with hands up and a grin similar to a fox

“It okay sweetie”, she chuckles while turning back to me and saying “ you a friend of izzy’s?”

“Alec’s actually” Izzy calls from the other room.

“That's good” she wipes her hands on here apron and shakes my hand, “i'm Alexander’s mother. He’s upstairs in his room, I’m sure Jace will show you to his room. Dinner will be ready in a moment. You’re welcome to stay as long as you want” she gestures to the blond one and rolls her eyes, “This one practically lives here.”

He winks and does these finger guns.

“Thank you ma’am” i whisper shyly

“No problem, what was your name again?” i’m a bit scared of that spoon she keeps waving around

“Magnus Bane.”

“Well welcome, Magnus” she smiles at me then wack’s jace’s hand away from the food. Apparently my instincts to stay away from the spoon were right.

“Okay, okay, i’m goin’. Come on, man” he gestures to me and i quietly follow him back down the hallway

“And you know you would be lost without me!” he yells to the previous room.

Going up the staircase we turn and cross the balcony to a small area with three doors

“Alec’s in that one”, he points to the door second to the right. Then turns and enters the room diagonally from it, kickin it shut with his foot.

I knock on the door i was directed to. I hear somethings shuffling, a bang, some curse words, and finally the door opens. “What do yo- oh? Magnus?”

“Hello Alexander. Was told id find you here?” i couldn’t help but love the mess of hair on his head from his trip that probably caused.

“Uh yeah this is the right room izzy’s woul-.. Wait why are y-”

“Well your sister kinda found me and said that i could stay here.”

“Oh”

“Yea…” i lift an eyebrow... “so can i come in?”

“Yeayea just let me” he’s door opens all the way and he quickly starts to put more stuff away then pausing to slowly go around the corner of his desk.

Ah point of impact.

Shutting his closet he turns and tells me i can come in.

I just laugh and sit on the edge of his bed placing my bag next to me

“Oh i can put that-” he reaches for my bag.

”No!”

He has this perplexed look.

“sorry it’s just” i cling to the bag “all i own.”

“What?” he looks at me.

“Heh yeah… my mom kinda…” i start to tear up. Shit i wasn’t gonna cry this time.

“Magnus?” he reached to hug me but his mom called us down for dinner.
