Children (Part 2)

Hola!

I'm back!

Let's get started:)

Alec's POV

I ran to the institute as fast as my legs and years of shadowhunter training could carry me. Tears and snot were running down my face and I was getting plenty of strange looks. But I don't care. I only have one thing on my mind.

Magnus.

More specifically his answer to the question I asked him earlier. Children. He didn't want children.

A family is all that I've really ever wanted. And when I say family I mean that I want one where everyone accepts each other and loves one another unconditionally. Sure, right now I have Izzy and Jace, but my parents aren't as accepting as they have been. And they probably never will be.

I love Magnus so much and it hurts to know he doesn't want a family.

Our family.

By the time I make it to the front steps of the institute my face is red and raw from the cold New York air and tears are flowing down my cheeks. I must look like a disaster.

I open the door and find the warmth of the institute inviting. I climb up the stairs to my old room and climb into the bed. I'm not sure how long I lay there before the warmth and kindness of sleep overtakes me.

Magnus POV

I can't believe Alec just left me here. I feel so empty. So alone. It's times like these when I remember what it was like not to have someone who loves or cares for me.

Alec should understand why I don't want children. Why wouldn't he? I mean, I'm immortal and seeing loved ones die is so hard already, not to mention if I had to raise, said loved one, from birth. I might die of sorrow.

I get up off the dusty apartment floor and walk out the door.

I need to find Alec.

Where would he have gone? And then it clicks.

The institute.

I run and don't look back.
