Malec - the missing

Part 7

Carrying Alec bridal style as he falls back to sleep in Magnus arms. Magnus opens the car passenger seat as he lays alec in the back growing their grey sheet over him as he puts the seatbelt over him clicking it in place. Closing the door he gets into the driving seat. I'm going to look after you, I promise

2 hour road trip

Magnus stays on the phone to his friend while driving "so as I said I need him protected, he doesn't go out of our sight and no one else is to be trusted or involved..yeah yeah, just a few nights for the two of us, thanks. Bye" As the call ends

Magnus approaches the sign for his turn off as he looks in the middle mirror at Alec waking up, alec sits up slowly "where the hell are we?, what's going on!" Alec yells ,Magnus puts a hand up "it's ok, I told you I'd keep you safe. We're going to my friends hidden mansion ,I told her our situation and she understands, she's putting us up for a few days" Alec looks out the windows

"How long have I slept?.. where are we?" Magnus carries on focusing ahead "you slept for 9 hours and you needed it, sit tight we won't be long, it's ten minutes until our journey ends" Magnus says turning round a corner up a hill

"You said your friend lives in a mansion..Uh who else with?" Alec asks "her husband and another friend of mine ,also her little girl. I haven't seen them for few months" Magnus smiles

Alec sits back in the seat. "You should know I keep a lot of my things at hers for when I stay over in the summer" Alec looks round just as they pull up outside the mansion.

His eyes grow wide then as he's staring the passenger door opens as Magnus joins him in the back sitting in front of him "hey, were going to be ok, your going to be ok" Magnus smiles at him as Alec just nods, then Magnus cups his cheek as he kisses Alec putting their foreheads together

As they both grab their bags from the boot of the car they walk to the door as Magnus rings the bell ,the door already opens "Magnus!" A woman comes out as Magnus drops the bag and hugs her, she's looks at Alec "it's great to see you" she stands out the way as Magnus gestures for Alec to follow in

Walking in ,alec looks around stopping in his tracks as more people come into the lounge room "hey, Magnus!!" A little girl runs upto him grabbing his leg as she hugs him "hey biscuit" he says smiling at her, Alec looks around lost before feeling a hand on his elbow he jumps at the contact causing Magnus to look at him

"Hi ,you must be Alec" Catarina says as she moves her hand off his arm "well I'm Catarina, this is my husband Rick ,our friend Ragnor and little Madzie my daughter" Alec smiles at them as they all look at him

Alec looks at Magnus as he looks back "Hey Cat, why don't I show Alec around this place. Starting with the bedroom yeah?" Magnus takes Alec's hand in his "be down for dinner in an hour" she smiles

Getting to the top of the stairs Magnus pulls Alec into the spare room "and this is my bedroom here" alec drops his hand as he looks around silently and walks into the en suite bathroom "it's stunning" Alec says coming back into Magnus "I'm glad you like it ,make yourself at home. I also want to show the game and chill room after" Magnus smiles

Alec drops his bags on the floor as Magnus walks to him "everything ok?" Alec cups his cheek "it's perfect" Magnus kisses him on the cheek.

Hour later

Alec walks downstairs in fresh clothes he borrowed off Magnus ,as he walks in to the kitchen in his shoes mud tramples across the floor and he hears shouting at him "watch it!" Alec shakes at the shouting "take your shoes off" she says as Alec takes them off leaving them on the mat.

Magnus walks into the room now "what's the shouting about?, oh hey Alec" Cat stares at Magnus rolling her eyes "never mind hey Alec, look at my floor" Magnus steps forward to her "il grab a mop, it's no problem" he says looking between them before Alec speaks "I'm not hungry anymore, lost my appetite" Alec says and Catarina has guilt in her eyes before Alec walks off upset

"Alec wait.." he hears as he turns round to Magnus "I just want to be left alone" he says avoiding eye contact before walking off quickly. Magnus turns to Catarina as she speaks "I didn't mean to upset him, it's just my floor I like it clean you know how it is" Magnus puts a hand on her shoulder "he gets shaken up easily, just next time if there's a problem with him come to me yeah?" Magnus says as she smiles

Alec sits on the balcony chairs looking out as he wipes his tear full eyes, voices in his head speak nobody wants you, your just nuisance to everyone, do them a favour and be alone alec puts his head down as his sobs go louder, before he puts his head up feeling a tap on the arm.

Moving his eye contact he looks at the little girl stood beside him as she sits in front on the chair dragging it beside him. She's wearing a pink pokka dot dress with white dolly shoes followed with her hair with two plats. Alec looks at her smiling "hi there" he says ,she pushes paper towards him "I drew you a picture" she says ,Alec looks taken back as he picks it up "it's beautiful, thank you Madzie".

She smiles as she opens her little bag on her side and pulls out a dotted handkerchief handing it to him "I have a few, you can have this" he smiles at her as he takes it out of her small hands "thank you".
