Because We're Parabatai

Malace

Alec: Do you know why I was late to our Parabatai ceremony?

Jace: Alec, that was years ago it doesn't matter anymore.

A: It does... because I thought about not going through with becoming Parabatai.

J: What... you didn't want to be my Parabatai?

A: I did, I still do but I thought it was the only option.

J: The only option for... you're talking in circles Alec. What's going on?

A: I thought about stopping the bond because I... I fell in love with you and I didn't know if I could continue the process but Izzy helped me realise that I'd only have the one chance at having a Parabatai and that I'd fall in love again.

J: ... So then why are you telling me now?

A: Because I'm still in love with you Jace and I know it's weird so I'll understand if you want to sever our bond, I promise that I won't hold it against you.

J: I don't want to break our bond, Alec. I just can't believe that you still have feelings for me.

A: Still? You knew, why didn't you ever say anything?

J: I suspected it when we were younger but then nothing came of it so I forgot about it and just buried mine.

A: You buried your what?

J: ...My feelings... for you. (He said unsurely)

A: You have feelings for me, why?

J: What do you mean why?

A: You're Jace Wayland, the guy that every girl wants. This is a joke right?

J: No it isn't Alec. I stopped seeing all those girls a while ago because I decided to face the fact that they won't be able to fill the need I have for you... You still don't get it do you?

A: No, I don't Jace.

J: You're wonderful Alec, you put others needs above your own which makes me angry from time to time but it's who you are. You care about everyone and you'll go out of your way to help them, Alec you're amazing.

A: Jace... what happens now, we're still Parabatai.

J: Yes we are that won't ever change, no matter what happens between us, ever. The only thing that changes now if you're okay with it is that we're Parabatai who kiss one another, amongst other things.

A: Are you sure about this, you're not just doing this to make me feel better.

J: I respect you too much to ever do something like that Alec, I really like you and I'd love to see where we could go if you want to.

A: I do, I really want to.

J: Then can I give you a kiss? (He smiled seeing the blush forming on Alec's face)

A: Yeah, go ahead.

Jace moved towards Alec and pulled his face closer before going in for a kiss. The second their lips touched there was an explosion of emotions, heightened by the fact that they were parabatai. Alec was having his first ever kiss which just blew his mind and Jace was feeling things he had never before felt while kissing anyone else.

A: Wow.

J: Yeah, I'm pretty amazing aren't I? (He smirked)

A: You're something alright.

J: But it was something amazing, I've never felt like that before.

A: Well then I guess I'm the pretty amazing one then.
