Shadows | Clalec

Epilogue

I gasped when I woke up in the institute. Confused, I looked around myself, trying to find out what had happened. A sudden rush of memory flashed before my eyes. The day I died. I saw Alec, Jonathan, Izzy, Jace, Valentine and last Agramonn. I covered my mouth when I realised that I had killed Agramon and it killed me...

But if I was dead? Then what was this? Where was I?

I looked down and saw a note laying down on the bedsheet. I blinked a few times and picked it up. My eyes widened and my hands started to tremble while my eyes were scanning through the words.

'Hello beautiful,
I am waiting for you in the flower garden.
Your Alec.'

Tears started to stream down my cheeks as I lightly chuckled. I quickly stood up and then realised that I was in a white dress. I didn't have time to be confused about it. My heart was pounding so fast that I just wanted to get to Alec. I just wanted to get to him.

I ran through the hallway of my room, realising that the entire institute was actually empty. I looked around, hoping that I would see Alec sooner but I didn't. I didn't see him at all. I quickly ran towards the garden.

I stopped when I saw a figure standing in front of me. My heart sank as I realised that it was Alec. He was wearing a white suit and his hair was beautifully messy as I had always liked it. The thought of it made me chuckle which made Alec turn around so he could look at me.

Just that one glance made my heart flutter and made my legs feel weak. I started to cry and without hesitation, I ran towards him, jumping right in his arms. I exhaled sharply as I finally felt his touch. I buried my face in the crook of his neck as he softly and gently twirled me around before putting me down on my feet again.

"You are here..." I said softly as I cupped his cheek. He came a bit closer and touched his nose with mine which made me laugh softly.

This was true happiness.

"I am here but why did you come so early?" He asked in a low voice. I titled my head slightly as I remained looking into his eyes deeply.

"Because my heart gave up missing you." I replied softly and he leaned in, kissing me gently. I closed my eyes as I enjoyed our kiss.

"I was so afraid that we were not going to meet again." Alec whispered against my lips.

"Me too..." I replied and pulled him in for a kiss. This felt like forever and it was with him. All I wanted was him and if it was meant to be like this, I was happy with that.

As long as it was with him...
