Unknown place:
"Arg!" Ty groaned, as he woke up.
He held into his head when he tried to sit up too fast, his head was killing him. What happened last night? Where was he? This wasn't his room in L.A...
Oh, right... I am in the Scholomance. Ty thought, recalling that he has started living in there for the last two months.
Suddenly, memories of last night began bombarding him. There has been a party at one of the boys room and there had been alcohol. Ty had been bumped since Kit left without saying goodbye so he had decided to drown his sorrows in alcohol. One of the girls there decided to take him back to his room when he had had enough to drink... and he had confessed it all to her: since trying to revive Liv to Kit leaving.
Oh, no! Ty exclaimed inwardly. The Clave will have my head for doing necromancy! And Kit's... but he tried to stop me. So, maybe I can keep him out of trouble and take the fall.
But the Clave never came. Not when he was taking a shower, or changing, not when he put on an iratze rune for his hangover, not even when he got down for breakfast. No one said a thing, or murmured behind his back, or looked at him the wrong way. He spent the whole morning filled with classes anxiously waiting for the other shoe to drop. But it did not. By lunch he was at his wits end, so he tracked Carmen Rosewood to the library and demanded some answers.
Carmen Rosewood, as Ty, she was at the top of the class. While Ty reigned in his studies and calcifications, followed closely by Carmen, she was the best in combat and analyzation abilities, with Ty close by. They both were serious, passionate and dedicated to her chosen career. They got along pretty well, so Ty started to hope that she had kept quiet about his secret.
But then again the law is hard but it is the law.
"Blackthorn" Carmen said, without looking up from her book- she had been expecting him all day.
"Rosewood" Ty replied nervously, as he took the seat across her "A-about last night..." he began but was cut off by his friend.
"I won't say a thing so you can relax. Your family has gone through so much, there would be a breaking point where someone would end up doing the unthinkable. I can't fault you for that, especially since I do not understand your pain" of course, she would not after all her whole family lived- they are known for being great warriors "You are my friend and I will lend you a hand on finding out more about the consequences of opening a breach between the death and the living... though, I do believe that you have to contact that Kit of yours"
"He is not my Kit!" Ty exclaimed flustered, forgetting all about his gratefulness towards Carmen. She finally look up from her book and raised an eyebrow in disbelief "I mean it! He hates me... he wished he had never met me. You know he left without even saying goodbye!"
"Ty, Mr. Bane had already explained to you that the way you behaved was not correct, you even took your anger and sadness out of Kit. From what I've heard he has had a pretty rough life before meeting you guys. He trusted you, which on itself is not easy, and you neglected that friendship, even abused it. He even confessed his love to you and you did not even acknowledged it! He must have been sad and humiliated, of course he would say he wished he had never met you. But that doesn't mean he really meant it, people speak stuff they do not mean all the time while being controlled by their emotions" Carmen explained to him, showing off her incredible analyzing abilities.
"What should I do? Does he even still feel the same for me?" Ty asked, desperate. "A boy that would help you bring someone back from the death will not forget so easily of you. I am pretty sure he still feels the same for you" Rosewood assured him "You can always write him a letter and send it via fire message. Write from the bottom of your heart. Though, if I am being honest I believe this time apart will be of great help for you guys. You have been through a lot lately and need your time to process things out and start anew when you meet again"
"Thank you, Car. You are the best" Ty thanked her and rushed out of the library to write his letter.
"Silly boy" Rosewood shook her head delightedly amused "You would be lost without me... I hope things work out for you"
Devon, England:
Kit sighed as he jumped on his bed. He loves Devon and his new family, he even made friends with a local shadowhunter... but he misses the Blackthorns, especially his Ty.
Stop that. Kit scolded himself, he can't continue calling Ty his or he won't be able to move on from his unrequited first love.
As he was deep in thought a sudden fire message appeared before him. Wearily Kit took it, rapidly noticing Ty's handwrite. Not even waiting a second later he ripped the envelope to read it's contents. This letter meant hope for Kit, hope that he did not lose his precious Holmes for ever.
Dear Kit,
I am so sorry for all I've done since Liv died. It took Magnus and Carmen (my new friend from the Scholomance) to see how bad I've treated you. You were my best friend, you were pushed into this world all of the sudden and lost your father soon afterwards. Liv and I were your safe heaven from all the mess your life had become, but Live died... and I pushed you away. I am so sorry for that. You did not deserve to have our friendship neglected or abused. All I have as an excuse is that I missed my sister, my twin, the one who would have been my parbatai too much and in my desperation I could only see my greedy desires and nothing more.
You also did not deserve for me to not even acknowledge your sincere confession. The only poor excuse I have is that with everything going on I've only processed the implications of your words after we had won the war and Alec was named Consoul. I wish you would have said it before because then I would have been able to answer you immediately. You Kit Rook, Kit Herondale, are the Watson to my Sherlock, the missing piece no one knew I needed... you are the boy I love with all my heart. I really do love you Kit, Iove you so much that having you at odds with me is killing me.
I've already lost Liv and I do not want to lose you too, I hope you can forgive me one day. Please. But for now this time apart will be good for us. You need to learn to trust and gain confidence in your abilities, find a family with James and Tessa. I have to mourn Live correctly and find a way to fix what I've messed up. When we are both ready we can live together at L.A again.
But in the meantime I would like continue to keep in contact with you... maybe even call mine if you allow me.
Yours truly,
Ty Blackthorn.
Kit rapidly moved the letter away, afraid he would stained it with my tears. He could not believe what he had read, he must have read incorrectly. But even after re-reading it five times he was still in disbelief but filled with joy at the same time. His Ty loved him back and it all had been a big misunderstanding. Kit wanted to call Tessa and teleport to the Scholomance... but Ty was right they needed time apart to heal. Which did not mean they could not keep in contact or call each other mine.
Decisively, Kit grabbed a pen and paper. He had a letter to write after all.
