This is a sequel to my one-shot entitled 'Why Him'. This is about Magnus and his reason for staying alive even after Alec has died. This is set in my AU, and that means Alec has died in the second book…read the prequel to this to know why. This is set a couple of days later on, but before the third book…

Jesus Luvs Everyone: Sequel to 'Why Him'. The song shown through is Viva Forever by Spice Girls.

In New York City, the city itself never slept, never laughed, and surely never cried. It could not feel, but the people inside of it could. One in particular felt the worse. In the warehouse district, a lonely warlock was crying. Crying for he had lost someone so close to him. Someone, who meant everything to this warlock and maybe even more than his own life, was gone. Giving his life for others, he had died a noble death. Music played softly in the background.

Do you still remember
How we used to be
Feeling together, believe in whatever
My love has said to me
Both of us were dreamers
Young love in the sun
Felt like my saviour, my spirit I gave ya
We'd only just begun

He sat at the bar that was in his large warehouse/house. Arms propped up, his was sobbing into his hands. Alec had died. He had left the world without him. His funeral was a couple of days ago, and Magnus had went, said his words, and left. He slowly lifted his head out of his hands, and his long fingers were dragging down his face. He looked across the bar and into the mirror facing him. His golden cat eyes were remarkable pinkish, and tears streamed down his face. Magnus sniffed; then anger flared through him. He growled and, with a flick of his right hand, lashed a spell out at the mirror, shattering it. The anger died. He let out another sob and cradled his face into his hands.

Why? Why? Why? He thought over and over inside of his head. That question plagued him since Alec's death. So many 'Why?'s.

Hasta Manana,
Always be mine

Viva forever, I'll be waiting
Everlasting, like the sun
Live forever,
For the moment
Ever searching for the one

Magnus once again lifted his head out of his hands and looked down at the floor behind the bar. Mirrors shards laid scattered everywhere. He blankly stared at them, while his mind began more questions and possible answers.

Why should I wait here on Earth? Maybe I should end my life, so I can rejoin with Alec in the afterlife. He thought about that idea over and over.

Yes I still remember,
Every whispered word
The touch of your skin, giving life from within
Like a love song that I'd heard
Slipping through our fingers,
Like the sands of time
Promises made, every memory saved
Has reflections in my mind

He then shook his head.

No, Alec probably went to…what do they call it…Heaven. He looked down at his hands. I am part demon, probably couldn't even get in. Magnus sighed.

Hasta Manana,
Always be mine

Viva forever, I'll be waiting
Everlasting, like the sun
Live forever,
For the moment
Ever searching for the one

Then an image flashed in his mind. It was Alec with white angel wings, smiling at him from on top the clouds. Tears pooled in his eyes and felled.

"Alec…why did you have to go? Why should I have to wait here?" Magnus muttered. He buried his head into his hands once again. Sobbing was louder now.

Back where I belong now,
Was it just a dream
Feelings unfold, they will never be sold
And the secret's safe with me

While sobbing, Magnus felt something or someone touched his shoulder. He opened his eyes and lifted his head up. He turned around and gasped. There standing was Alec, with white angel wings sprouting from his back.

"Al...ec…"

Winged Alec smiled. Then, by an unknown source, Magnus jumped up and hugged the angel of his lover. He didn't pass through Alec. Alec, in turn, returned the hug. Magnus wept, while burying his head on the side of Alec's neck.

Hasta Manana,
Always be mine

Viva forever, I'll be waiting
Everlasting, like the sun
Live forever,
For the moment
Ever searching for the one

"Why Alec? Why did you leave me?" Magnus, while crying and hugging Alec, asked the dead boy. Alec didn't reply right off the bat, but then he replied the warlock.

"I had to help my family and friends. I am so sorry Magnus." Then they slowly broke the embrace. Magnus stared at the angel, and Alec stared back at the warlock.

Viva forever, I'll be waiting
Everlasting, like the sun
Live forever,
For the moment
Ever searching for the one

Viva forever, I'll be waiting
Everlasting, like the sun
Live forever,
For the moment
Ever searching for the one

"Magnus…promise me that you will not end your life…you should live till your times comes" Alec said to him while wearing a solemn face.

"But Alec, I want to be with you…" Magnus replied, tears beginning to sting his eyes again. Alec smiled.

"Don't worry Magnus…I will wait, as must you…but when time comes, we will be together at the end…"

"Alec…"

Alec smiled and said, "Goodbye Magnus…" Then the angel disappeared in a flash of white light. Magnus shielded his eyes with his hands, and then removed them once the light was gone. Magnus stared at the spot where his lover once was. The song playing in the back ground seemed to be sounder now.

Viva forever, I'll be waiting
Everlasting, like the sun
Live forever,
For the moment
Ever searching for the one

He would wait till it was his time. Till he could rejoin with Alec. Till then, he would follow his lover's advice. To live his life, not end it.

Sad, I know, but I got the idea a couple of days ago when I heard this song…and it just clicked!
