"I... I don't know what to do anymore, Magnus. It's like I've lost half of me, the half I showed the most. My cockiness that compensates for Alec's shyness. My extrovert self, that counteracted Alec and his introverted tendencies. It's like I was made to balance him, and him to balance me. Together, we had everything. Now? It feels like I have nothing." Jace sighed and leaned into Magnus' shoulder.
"But you do have something. You have Izzy and Clary and Simon and Me. We'll always be here, Jace, especially me. We'll always be here to help." Magnus said softly.
"I know, it's just... after Valentine and everything, at the end of the day, I was taught not to show emotion. To push it all away. It's just hard."
"I know it is Jace, but we'll get through this together. All of us. And you're always welcome at the loft if you ever need somewhere to relax away from everyone else."
"Thank you, Magnus," Jace said, his voice full of sincerity.
"It's no problem, Jace." He replied, smiling softly. They sat in content silence for a while, Magnus hugging Jace softly. Izzy walked in.
"Hey, Ja-" she saw Magnus and Jace.
"Aww... it's so cute!" She cooed at them. Jace blushed.
"Anyway, dinner's ready." Jace raised an eyebrow.
"Taki's. I swear." She said, before walking out of the room. Jace (although he would never admit it) reluctantly stood up. Magnus got up with him and they both walked into the kitchen.
