My Angel (Alec Lightwood love story)

chapter 8

Destiny's p.o.v

I woke up the next morning to the bed empty then I heard the shower running, sitting up I get out of bed and change out of my PJs.

Then I knock on the bathroom door "I'm coming in love," I say and I hear Alec mumble an ok.

Entering the bathroom I go over to the sink to brush my teeth and comb my hair, as I'm doing this I hear the water turn off, I turn around and see Alec get out of the shower with a towel around his waist, his hair dripping from just being washed.

"I've put some clothes on the bed for you," I say as he walks over to me.

"Thanks babe," he says kissing my forehead, he leaves to go change and comes back in to brush his teeth.

Once he's done we go down to the kitchen to see Jace making breakfast and Clary was with Simon and Izzy at the table

"Well there's something I thought I'd never see," I say plucking a piece of bacon off the plate and walking over to the table as Simon laughed.

"Well at least the food will be good" Alec says looking at Izzy who made a look of fake hurt.

"Hey my food is good," she says and Alec laughs, oh how I love hearing him laugh.

"I'm only teasing you baby sister" he says sitting next to me and Jace puts everything he made on the table and we begin eating.

Breakfast was quiet today, as everyone was still upset about the major fail that happened last night. They were no closer to finding Clary's mother or the mortal cup.

After breakfast Alec took me into the gardens as it was my favorite place in the Institute, we had some time before I went to Idris so we wanted to spend it alone. We layed down on a blanket by the roses, the smell radiating around us as we looked up at the sky through the glass ceiling.

"I wish we had more alone time, it feels like we never get to hang out together because we're always working," he says as I rested my head on his chest and his fingers began combing though my hair.

"Would you like for us to act like mundane couples. Going on dates and spending more time outside?" I ask slowly looking up at him.

He seemed to be thinking about the idea of Shadowhunters acting like normal mundane couples. To be completely honest sometimes I think about being a mundane. Just living out life to the best of my ability, not having to worry about hunting demons or the fact that supernatural beings exist. They have it simple, which is the only thing I envy them for.

Unlike most Shadowhunters, I don't mind mundanes. They are people just as we are, but without angel blood and I'm sure if they were trained like us, then they could fight demons just as good. Alas most of my fellow brethren don't see them as such although we devote our lives to protecting them.

"Yeah at least for a day. But we never seem to catch a break, Love," he says with a heavy sigh.

"How about we try it on our next day off, go see a movie or something," I say as he looked down at me.

He smiled "I would love to do that," he says pecking my forehead. I can't wait to see a movie with him.

"I gotta go soon, love," I say and he sighs.

"Yeah I know," he says sitting up and together we left the garden.

I was standing in the main room waiting for my portal, when Jace walked up to me with everyone else. "Hey Des we know where the cup is and need all the help we can get to go get it," Jace said hoping I will go with them. So they found the mortal cup this will get interesting.

"I'm sorry Jace but I'm about to go to Idris to speak to the Inquisitor about Clave stuff, as much as I would love to go and help you, my portal will be here soon," I tell him.

"OK I get to, but next time OK," he says and I smile

"Definitely" I say and they all leave.

About 10 minutes after they left there was a shimmer of purple light and a warlock stepped through the portal "Right this way Mrs. Lightwood," she says and I step up to the portal. She takes my hand, I breath in a slow breath, here goes nothing I think to myself before I step through the portal and end up at the gate of Alicante....

Sorry it took so long, it's school and I'm also sick which sucks but I hope you like it and thanks for reading.
