1x1 w/ Anna and Echo

[AnnaCat17]

Alex didnt respond at first, unsure how to. He shifted out of his sheet and kneeled on the floor infront of Jace. He shifted so he was between his legs before kissing up his torso. "What were you thinking about?"

June locked the door again before curling up against the side of the tub. Shakily she turned on the faucet and once it was filled she submerged herself in it, water sloshing over the side as he tail emerged.

Jace shivered, watching him with half closed eyes. "When?"

Kal heard water splashing around, and relief washed over him. She wasn't leaving. At least, not right now. He lied down on the couch, closing his eyes, but he knew he wouldn't be able to rest.

Alex grabbed his waist and forcefully pulled him towards him. "Just mow when you looked troubled." He kissed along his collar bone as he allowed the silence to relax him, tge only other noise around them being tge tv which still played behind him.

Jace couldn't remember anymore. All he could pay attention to was Alex. "I don't remember," he breathed, his breath hitching as Alex kissed him.

Alex smirked and shifted so he was pressed against Jace. He reached up and rested a hand on the back of his neck, pulling him into a deep kiss before murmering against his lips. "Stay with me tonight."

[EchoOfShatteredIce]

Jace shivered, wrapping his arms around his waist, holding him close. "Okay," he whispered, finding it hard to breathe. He kissed him back, closing his eyes happily.

-next morning-

Ricky groaned as he woke up, a headache throbbing through his skull. He looked at the girl in his arms confused but relaxed as he realized it was just Saige. He let her go and sat up, rubbing his head in pain and looking around his room tiredly, trying to remember the events of the previous night.

Alex played with jace's hair as he held him. His head hurt but he otherwise felt fine, having not had as much as Ricky. He softly kissed jace's forehead so he wouldnt wake him, letting himself enjoy how comfortable he felt with Jace.

June woke up still submerged in the tub. She sat up, splashing more water onto the floor, and looked around numbly. Her shoulders were still cut and bruised from the previous night but she didnt bother to pull her glamor up and hide them, he had done this and deserved to see it. She carefully climbed out and cleaned up the bathroom, listening intently for the sound of anyone else in the apartment.

[EchoOfShatteredIce]

Saige smiled sleepily, reaching over and taking Ricky's hand. She was too drowsy right now to remember that now that he was sober, things would be different.

Jace snuggled against Alex, softly exhaling against his neck. He was hugging him close, having a good dream.

The apartment was deserted. A note was left on the kitchen table, where she would see it, and the keys to the apartment were set beside it. It read, "Dearest June. I can't apologize enough about last night. I'll be gone for a little bit, at least until the full moon has past. I should have left a while ago, but I was selfish and wanted to stay with you. I've got some business out of town I need to take care of. You can have my loft while I am gone. I hope to see you when I get back, when I can control myself completely. -K"

Ricky squeezed her hand gently as he looked down at her. He smirked at the sight of her innocent smile and yearned to cover it with his own lips. He reached over and brushed her hair out of her face, giving himself this moment to enjoy her presence. "What happened last night?" He asked in a voice rough from sleep.

Alex smiled but kissed Jace's cheek and ran a hand over his back to wake him up gently.

June read the note, feeling her heart sink into the pit of her stomach. She crumpled it up and dropped it on the ground in anger before going into the bedroom to change and get some of her things, wanting to return home to her family.

[EchoOfShatteredIce]

Saige relaxed against him, smiling. "You were very drunk," she murmured sleepily. You told me you loved me and you proposed." She smiled, thinking about it.

Jace yawned, burying his face in his hair. He stretched, and then snuggled closer to him, not wanting to get up and face anything yet.
