It's You (Malec)

The Big and Bad Protector

It's You

Chapter 3

"Okay. So what do you want to do now? Want to watch some cartoons?" asked Magnus just after Maryse and Robert left. He had a big smile on his caramel face and his tone was cheerful, it was obvious that he was also excited about next two days. Both kids raised their eye brows with wonder.

"What are those?" asked Jace while pointing the big collection of DVD's.

"Oh dear... w-why don't we find out? But we have to be quite, your big brother's sleeping. We can eat some candies too. Do you like candies? I love candies!" said Magnus and went to the kitchen while the kids stared at him like he was crazy.

Izzy was the one who moved first. She followed Magnus' steps to the kitchen and stood at door flame. "Mr. Bane, can I have a chocolate, please?" she asked with big, shameful eyes.

Even looking at her made Magnus' heart melt, he was sure he could never say no to Lightwood's. "You can call me Magnus, Isabelle." Magnus smiled and gave her a chocolate. Izzy smiled and took it.

"Thank you, Magnus. You can call me Izzy, then." she said and tried to open the package but when she struggled to do so, two other little hands grabbed the chocolate and opened the package for her.

"Here," said Jace and stood near her and gave it back to her. She smiled to him and held it out to her brother before eating. "Want to eat with me?"

"No, thank you. I don't like it." Something about these kids, made Magnus' heart warm up and he couldn't help it. A big and warm smile was placed on his lips.

 "Do cats eat mouse, Magnus? For real?" asked Izzy while her eyes were glued to the TV. They had been watching Tom and Jerry for two hours and the kids were watching it as if they had been hypnotized. They were eating popcorn and Izzy was leaning her head to Magnus' lap. It was the best, and most beautiful moment of warlock's.

"In some situations, yes. It's in their nature, honey."

"This is so ridiculous. The cat is so stupid, he could set up a trap and catch the mouse." said Jace but he could not stop watching it either. No matter what, it was still magical.

While Magnus was about to answer, a cute voice interrupted him. "Izzy, Jace!" They all turned their heads to the source of the voice.

Alexander Lightwood was standing at the door flame while he was pouting and rubbing at his eyes. He was so cute that Magnus felt like crying from the sweetness.

"Here, Alec." said Jace and turned to his cartoon, it was obvious that he did not want to miss any second of it.

Alec went next to him and looked at them with confusion in his hazel eyes.

"Are you disturbing Mr. Bane, Izzy?" asked Alec and with that, Izzy tried to pick herself up but Magnus stopped her.

"No such a thing, Izzy. You can stay exactly where you are as long as you're comfortable."

"Really?" Izzy asked and Magnus nodded with a assuring smile.

"And Alec, please call me Magnus, we're friends, remember?" Alec narrowed his eyes and waited.

He was waiting for an invitation.

"What are you waiting for pretty boy, come and sit with us. Do you like popcorn and cartoons or would you like to do something else?"

"What are those?" He asked but climbed to the big couch with a little help of Magnus' hand. He sat down between Jace and Magnus. Izzy gave him a few popcorns with her little chubby hands and Alec took them but he was not sure yet. He was looking at poor popcorns as if they were aliens.
