Alec had been dreading when one of his secrets would be revealed. Yet that day caught him by a surprise.
He was a careless idiot and forgot to lock the door. So Magnus was able to yank it open. The man went pale. “What… are you doing?”

“Hey.” Catarina Loss lay a comforting hand on his back. “Think about how unlikely it would be that…”
Magnus didn’t care about statistics with how unlucky he and his family had always been. He ran, as fast as he was able to, until he reached the ambulance entrance.

Alec approached the bed and lay down cautiously, pulled closer to Magnus.
More than half-asleep, Magnus shifted and opened his eyes halfway. “… came home…”
Alec’s heart ached and his eyes stung. “Of course. I’ll always do everything I can to make it back home.”

“Daddy is never here anymore. He cancelled vacation, too. Again.”
Magnus sighed, feeling exhausted to his bones. “He’s so sorry about that.”
Max looked straight into Magnus’ eyes. And asked the about last question he’d expected. “Does daddy not love us anymore?”

Jace squeezed Alec’s shoulder. “You’re doing your job.”
Alec worked his jaw. “That’s it. While my son is crying and begging me to come chase away the boogeyman, I’m running around trying to catch someone else’s boogeyman”

It wasn’t enough. No distraction would ever be enough. He’d never be enough, no matter how much he’d change, hide and give up on. No one would ever truly believe in him. The realization was so overwhelming that Magnus started to scream.
Beside him Alec screamed, too.

Magnus and Alec ran side by side, each trying to outrace the other. There was palpable electricity in the air between and around them. True, they couldn’t run away from their problems and pains, but they finally had a functioning, remotely healthy distraction.

Something changed in Alec’s eyes. A wall could be seen being lowered, slowly and hesitantly, a wounded soul full of fear and agony. “I’m sorry”
“I’m sorry, too”
They were on the same page. Open, raw and exposed, understanding one another instead of assuming things.

“We have to catch this monster before…”
“I’m tired of having this same fight over and over again. I’ve gotta go.” On the last second Magnus murmured a few words before hanging up. “I love you.”
Alec’s closed eyes stung. “I love you, too”, he whispered to no one.

“I don’t know you at all, do I?” They both needed someone who knew them well enough to understand them. But would they ever manage to trust each other enough to reach that point?
Alec’s phone kept making noise incessantly.

Magnus was two steps away from the door as, to both their shock, Alec lost control. “Do you imagine I like myself? That I enjoy being this way, living this way?” Alec’s breathing pattern and pale pallor were far from healthy. “I didn’t choose to become… this! I was molded!”

“I’m not your pet or a charity project, Magnus.”
Magnus groaned. “I can’t handle this anymore.” He cleared his throat after his voice broke. “Every time I imagine that I’m close to having you trust me a little you put up a new wall and push me away. And I… I’m done.”

Magnus winked. “I’m about to show you. If you’re a really good boy.”
“You know I can never behave myself around you.”

Magnus buried his face to his hands. This can’t be happening… “I was hoping that you’d tell me you’re joking. I can’t believe you’re doing this to us again.”
“Magnus, it’s my job”, Alec tried, as though that would’ve made it all better.
“And we’re your family!”

Alec could feel Jace watching him. “Are you okay?”
Alec nodded firmly. “When I took this job… I swore to myself that I’d fight for as long as I can to stop these monsters.” Now he’d have to figure out a way to explain his decision to Magnus.

Alec swallowed “You’re amazing. To still shine that light, after everything”

“I can’t talk about it”, Alec half-snapped, frustrated. “It’s confidential. And you three… You’re innocent. I want to keep you as far away from that ugly world as possible.”

Magnus’ eyes held a mixture of fire and tenderness. “You’re so tense from holding back and trying to stay in control you can barely breathe. I’m helping you let go and forget about everything for a moment”
Alec wanted to let go. And he especially wanted to forget

Magnus arched an eyebrow. The man’s hurt was almost perfectly hidden. “What was that? Are you saying that you don’t want to?”
Alec licked his lips. “I do. Just… Not like usually.” How red was his face? “Softly.”
Understanding softened Magnus’ features beautifully. “I see.”

Magnus sounded amused and fond. “You’ve seen me naked before.”
“This is different.”

“Your family… Do they know?”
