Alec didn't know if he had anything to really compare it to, what he felt right now. He knew he'd had moments of happiness, moments where Jace had reached over and ruffled his hair or when Max had looked up to him, looked at him like Max usually looked at Jace or when Isabelle took his hand and smiled at him that he felt what he thought was happiness.
There were moments now, moments where Magnus kissed him after he'd just woken up or where Luke gave him a few books he'd set aside or where Reid sat there and just listened to him as intently as he'd ever seen anyone listen that he thought he might be happy.
"I'm close to it," he said, deciding that was as far as he'd go with saying what he felt. "I don't know if I've ever been happy before but I'm close to it. I like where I'm at right now."
