Before We Fell Apart (1X1 with Chocolate'Cupcake)

[Crabbiey]

"I hope so too..." Issabelle smiled and hugged Issac back.

[herondale.]

Alex twisted his mouth to a half-smile. His parents liked it when he smiled. He hummed and opened the door. Issac imediately looked up.

[Crabbiey]

Issabelle too looked up, she gave Alex a soft smile.

[herondale.]

Alex smiled back, as soft and real as he could. He looked at the two of them then headed towards the door. Issac smiled back at Alex. It was a rare sight to see him smile.

[Crabbiey]

Issabelle watched Alex, hoping he'd keep like this and eventually open up.

[herondale.]

Alex didn't look back. As he turned his face away, he dropped his smile. He opened the door and slid out.

Issac didn't notice his smile fade.

[Crabbiey]

Issabelle looked at Issac, she hadn't seen Alex's smile fade either. She was smiling broadly.

[herondale.]

Alex sighed as the door closed behind him. He headed to where he'd left Siona to find her not there anymore. He sighed angrily.

[Crabbiey]

Siona by now was far away. It was good to get away from it all, from The Baby and everything.

Issabelle sighed, wondering how she could keep Alex happy.

[herondale.]

Alex growled and stormed across the gardens. He punched a tree and wtahced it fall over, creating a loud thud on the ground. He ran to the maze.
