Snow Globe
Alec was working that he didn't even notice the surroundings. When a blue hand stumbled across the table into his field of vision.
"No!" Alec was horrified, pulling the snow globe out of Max's reach. Alec stood up. "Where did you leave Papa, rascal?" He took Max in his arms.
"At home," the little warlock replied. "How did you get here?" Alec asked and took Max in his arms.
"Magic," Max grinned. "How else," Alec said in Max's hair. "You can stay here, but you won't disturb me. Do you understand? ”The boy began to nod eagerly.
It took Max a moment to get a snow globe back into his field of vision. It was beautiful. A larger glass ball and inside was a house with a snowman. Max began to reach for it.
"No!" Alec took his hands. "Dad got it from Aunt Clary. We would both be sad if you broke it. You don't want that, do you? ”
"No!" Max shook his head. "Look," Alec took the snow in his hand and shook it. Max clapped his hands. As tiny white and silver glitter began to fall in the ball. "It's like Papa."
"Yes it is," Alec smiled. "Here he is!" Magnus called from the doorway. "I'm looking for him everywhere!" Magnus took Max in his arms. "You can't do this to me, scare me like that."
"I wanted to see Daddy," Max smiled innocently. "So you know what?" Alec suggested. "I'll leave it for today and we'll all go home." Magnus and Max accepted the proposal with enthusiasm.
