I FELL IN LOVE WITH MY BEST FRIEND

CHAPTER 7

The group was waiting in the waiting room of the hospital. "Guys I don't like it, why would Magnus collapse like that?" Simon asks. Alec shrugs. Jace sighs. "He as been feeling stressed. Like I mean on Thursday, Izzy and I found out that Sebastian is abusing Magnus." Jace starts. "I knew I didn't like the way he eyed Magnus." Alec grumbles. "He seemed find on Friday, so I don't know." Jace says.

"How long were you with him on Friday?" A doctor asks. "Izzy and I left at about five in the evening, why?" Jace asks. The doctor sighs and straightens up. "My name is Catarina Loss and I was the one checking over Mr. Bane." She says. Everyone stands. "How is he Doc?" Simon asks. "Not well I'm afraid. He was dehydrated first of all. Over stressed was another thing. Look the thing I was taught to do is to checked to see if the patient is a victim." She says.

"Alright victims of what?" Jace asks. "Of abuse. Physical, emotional or sexual. Found out he is a victim of all three." She says. "What do you mean? " Clary asks scared. "Bruises all over his body. His emotional levels are high and Umm he also has personal damage. He looks to be raped after injected with a drug that was still affecting his body and I scanned his emotional levels and other things. It looks like to be three males." She finishes.

"Oh my God. " Clary says and slumps down in her seat. "Jesus." Jace mutters to himself and Izzy looks like she is about to cry. Alec himself wanted to throw up. He should have been there. He should have went to Magnus once he found out he was in love with him. Alec wraps an arm around Izzy when she fully sobbed. Izzy never cries so everyone was surprised. "Can't we see him?" Alec asks.

Catarina nods. "He is not awake though." She says as he walks down the hall. She opens a hospital door and they went inside. Magnus was laying on the bed. With his make up washed off they saw the bruises on his face. Alec sits down and holds Magnus hand gently. It was Izzy who sat on the other chair looking miserable while Jace puts his hand onto her shoulder. Izzy places her hand over top of Jace hand that was resting on her shoulder.

"I promised him nothing will hurt him. I broke it." She whispers. Simon sighs. "We all promised him." Jace says softly. They sniffle and the group sits down. Magnus was peacefully sleeping, probably to sleep the drugs off but to turn his brain off is a good thing. He had suffered a lot during the week. Although his breathing was more like wheezes. "What's wrong with his breathing?" Simon asks. Catarina inwardly winches. "His throat has some damage. I don't think you want to know what from." She says softly. Izzy clenches her hands into fists. "Next time I see Sebastian he won't see the light of day again." She growls fiercely.

Catarina looks up. "Sebastian. Is he the one that as been abusing him?" He asks. The group nods. Catarina nods and writes it down. Once we find the other two, I assume you want to know who they are." He says while raising an eyebrow. "Yes." Jace says. Catarina nods then walks out of the room.

The group stayed like that for several hours, refusing to leave the Magnus side. Magnus hand twitches and his breath stops for a second then breath in again, signaling that Magnus is waking up. The group edge closer watching for any sighs of pain. At last after a few minutes his eyes fluttered open and he looked confused for a second then looks around the room. "What happened?" He asks roughly when he realizes that everyone was in the room.

"You were in a violent coughing fit and passed out on us. Why didn't you tell us what happened on Friday night?" Izzy asks. Magnus looks away and turns on his side. "I want to be alone right now." He says. A nurse came in. "You heard the patient. He wants to be alone so shoo, shoo." She says and ushers the others out. They look at each other.

Magnus let's the tears fall. Soon his dad and brother will find out and will be disgusted and never talk to him again. The tears continue to fall and he whimpers pathetically. Soon enough he will get out of this hospital then he can move away and maybe even make a CD since everyone loves him singing. If he can properly sing again. He wouldn't know what to do in life if he can't sing again.

The tears still fall. He was tired of crying. He is no longer showing his weaknesses, people only go after you when they find out what your weakness is.

Magnus had enough.

It was three days later when he was finally allowed out of the god awful place. He was strong now and nothing is going to break him. He won't allow it anymore. They found the three men. Sebastian, Raj and Hodge . Magnus just didn't care anymore while the rest of the group fumes. It was Wednesday and he still wanted to go to the bar and sing his heart out.

His throat healed nicely and he was still able to sing like nothing happened. Magnus was so, so glad about that. He was able to go home even though the rest of his friends didn't want him to. Alec talks to him again but apologizes and feels a huge amount of guilt for what he did to him. Magnus didn't care. But of course his heart filled with hope again even though it shouldn't

Magnus was home right now cleaning his place up. He made sure to wash the floors, the walls, his whole entire bedroom. It just bugs him and likes to keep things organized. Not his fault. He finally sits down onto the couch exhausted from those hours of cleaning. He lays his head back and closes his eyes. Just a few minutes of relaxation will do him good. Up until there was a knock on the door.

Magnus nearly groans and walks to the door. This time he checked through the peephole to see who it was. Alec? What the hell was he doing here. Last time he saw him was when Alec didn't want to be his friend anymore. Magnus sighs and unlocks the door with the five locks. Okay, so he is paranoid, get over it. Magnus slowly opens the door to blink when he sees a huge bouquet of red roses. "Uhhh Alec, what are you doing?" He asks confused.

Alec smiles. "These are for you." He says and hands the roses to Magnus. Magnus takes them and opens the door wider. Alec walks inside and whistles. "Clean. I like it." He says. Magnus glares at him with really no fire behind it. He puts the roses in a vase and then quickly walks back to his door. Alec watched with his eyebrows furrowed as Magnus locks his door.

"So umm you didn't answer my question." He says. Alec smiles softly and sighs. "I want to tell you something. I couldn't wait and have to tell you now. I am a big idiot." He says. Magnus raises an eyebrow. "I should have known and I ran away instead of talking with you about it like adults." He says.

"Alec, I don't understand. What are you trying to say?" He asks with his heart pounding. Alec steps closer and cups Magnus cheek. "What I'm trying to say here is that I love you." He whispers then brings Magnus into there first kiss. Alec's lips where so soft and at this point his heart was pounding so hard that he could hear his heartbeat. Alec pulls away and Magnus shudders. "What about Andrew?" He asks nearly whimpering.

"He was cheating on me. I don't care about him. You, only you I care about." Alec says and kisses Magnus once again. This time he does whimper and grabs a fist full of his shirt and clings onto him. Magnus had been dreaming of this moment for so long that he was sure this was a hallucination. It was finally true or was this a joke? He doesn't know.

Alec pulls away and stays close. Magnus looks away and closes his eyes. Alec smiles and kisses the corner of Magnus mouth. "Hey look at me." Alec says. Magnus opens his eyes and looks into Alec blue eyes. "I'm sorry I didn't realize it sooner. I knew deep down I love you I just didn't know it until you sang that song and I listened to it three more times." Alec says. Magnus sniffles and a tear falls down his cheek. Alec wipes it away with his thumb. He stares into Magnus eyes with such love and care in his eyes and tilts Magnus head up and kisses him. This kiss was much deeper and way more passionate.

Magnus feels like he could fly. He felt so safe and warm with Alec's arms wrapped around his body and Magnus never felt so loved. Alec smiles and brings his now new lover close as Magnus puts his face into Alec's neck.
