*back at the institute*

Emily's POV
Alec took me to my room and laid me down on my bed. He was gonna leave when I grabbed his hand and he turned around to look at me.

"I thought you were asleep" he said, sitting at the edge of the bed.

"I was until you put me down" I replied and he smiled.

"You should get some sleep alright? You need the rest. We can talk tomorrow" he said eyeing me.

"You're so warm and cozy. I don't think I'll be able to sleep here ever again" I said pointing to my bed and he laughed. He made himself comfortable and held me in his arms, my head laying on his chest as he stroked my hair. 

"Better?" He asked me and I nodded, his warmth and his touch gave me goosebumps.

"So are we gonna pretend that nothing happened or are you gonna explain what happened earlier at Magnus's?" I asked him and he tensed up. I could hear his heartbeat racing.

"Ems, I uhmm.. I don't know how to explain-" he started but I cut off his rambling with a passionate kiss.
Thankfully he didn't pull back this time and kissed me back even harder. We pulled back a little only to catch our breath and smiled.

"Didn't need much explaining, did it?" I smile at him, giving him small kisses continuously.

"I've wanted to do that for so long, I just couldn't muster up the courage. I thought I'd ruin this thing we've had for so long, that is why I pulled away that day" he told me.

"Me too, Alec. I'm so happy to be here with you right now" I said and he smiled at me.

"I'm happy too, although Jake's gonna kill me when he finds out I've been making out with his sister all night long" he says and I laugh so hard.

"You sound like a seal, Em. Shush now or somebody will probably walk in on us to see what the hell you're doing" he tried to make me quiet but I couldn't stop laughing. So he kissed me again.

"You really know how to handle a woman" I say and he smiles.

"I know how to handle Emily Trueblood. Now let's get some sleep before we have to deal with everyone's shit tomorrow, again." he replied and I giggled. We kissed and cuddled closer before we drifted off to deep sleep.

*the next day*

I rubbed my eyes as I opened them, sitting up in my bed. Taking in my surroundings I realized I was wearing Alec's shirt and he wasn't there to be seen. He must've left early before anyone could spot him coming out of my room shirtless. I smiled thinking of him but I was soon snapped out of it as I heard Clary shouting Alec's name in the hallway. I quickly threw on my pyjamas and went outside to see what the fuss was about. I saw Alec going towards the training room with Clary and Jace hot on his heels so I began following them.
Jake and Izzy were training there already as Alec opened a small chamber from a tile by running his stele over it. He put Clary's necklace in it and closed it.

"That is the only way I possibly have of communicating with my mom, we can use it, Alec" my sister said to him.

"If I was Valentine I'd manipulate you into thinking that you could get your mom back this easily, then I'd kidnap you and use your life as leverage for the cup" Alec replied to her. He always thinks about things rationally.

"Don't overthink this Alec. We can use it to our advantage and you know it" Jace said.

"If Valentine has found a way to peek inside the Institute then that's a door I have to shut. I can't risk everything for ifs and maybes" Alec replied.
