"talking"
Alec POV
I was sitting in Magnus's living room petting Chairman Meow. Magnus was out shopping with Izzy and probably poor Clary. Today was rather slow for a shadowhunter. The demons haven't been too active lately. There has been a little bit of action here and there, but mostly just small fry that Jace takes on because he gets bored.
Groaning I stood up, I am so freaking bored! I was getting so bored that I was actually considering cleaning out Magnus's closet! No, I would have to be suicidal to do that. I shuddered at the thought of his closet. It was a giant mess in there, it was like that he hasn't bothered to clean it in years. He just threw things in there! If I opened the door there would be an avalanche. I would probably get lost in there if I ever tried cleaning it out! Huh, I wonder if I would find Narnia.
10 Minutes Later
I was in Magnus's room staring at his closet door. I reached the ultimate boredom, and I have decided to risk my life to clean out his closet just to stave off the boredom. "He'd better appreciate this," I grumbled under my breath.
I opened up the closet door and sure enough there was an avalanche of clothes and books. I was trapped underneath it all, "Are you kidding me? I knew I shouldn't have done this!" My voice was muffled due to the pile of clothes and books. It took me about ten minutes to dig my way out.
Looking at the mess I sighed, matter as well clean it up since I will have to move everything back into the closet. I began making stacks of books in one corner of his room and a stack of folded clothes on his bed. Looking at the stack of glittered, rhinestone, and leather clothing I shook my head. Magnus tried to get me to try on some of his clothes but I refused. I preferred my darker clothes, it is what I am the most comfortable in.
I continued for about two hours, and then I finally reached the bottom of the closet. It was a walk in closet with room for everything, but I guess he was to lazy to put things away properly. It surprised me due to the fact that the rest of his house was very neat and orderly. He usually picked up after himself. I also noticed that the very back of the closet was filled with clothes that looked like it belonged in the late 1800's. I looked down at the floor to see a black wooden box. Picking it up I inspected it closer. It had gold trimming and elegant silver sparrows on the lid. I lifted the lid to see a black leather-bound book.
I opened it out of curiosity and read the inside, Property of William Herondale. My eyes widened in recognition to the name, This has to be a relative of Jace's, but why would Magnus have his journal? A hot flash of jealousy shot through me. I shut the book calmly and put it back into the box. I then took the box and set it on the table in the living room. I returned to Magnus's room and finished cleaning his closet.
Three hours later, I was sitting calmly on the couch in the living room, drinking some hot tea and reading a book that had caught my interest. I heard the door jiggle as it was being unlocked, he was home. I quickly shut the book I was reading, and I picked up the box I had set on the table. I wanted some answers and I would get them. When Magnus entered he smiled at me, "Hello Alexander! How was your day?" I just gazed at him with a serious face. He lost his smile and gained a look of concern, "Are you okay? What's wrong?" I stood up silently and approached him slowly. I then handed him the box and said monotonously, "I think we need to talk."
Well, I had some spare time so I have decided to update now rather than later, just to give you a taste of things! If you could, would you please tell me how I did and if I should do it this way or keep the original chapter. I will keep up the originals for you to compare but I will take them down eventually. Please leave a review! -Deathstarling556
