As soon as he could enter the room, Alec stepped inside and closed the door. When he was sure it was locked, he turned back to Sebastian, heart giving an odd lurch when he saw his boyfriend holding his cat. Again he was reminded of home even though Sebastian wasn't from his reality.

Sebastian was a part of what Alec thought of as 'home' just as much as Magnus and the Chairman.

And he had hurt one of the people who made him feel truly comfortable with himself.

Alec struggled for the right words for a moment, and then realized there weren't any. Instead, he stepped closer, leaning down to press his lips against Sebastian's. It wasn't quite romantic but it was the best apology he could think of. One that would prove to Sebastian that he really was here and safe and not planning on leaving him.
