The Wonders of Malec

Chapter 4

Alec awoke to the sound of the door bell ringing.

"Alexander, door." Magnus mumbled into his pillow, while pulling the cover up so it covered him completely. Alec groggily got out of bed, shuffling towards the front door. He opened the door to reveal his siblings and their significant others.

"Hey Alec, we all just wanted to check to see if you were okay." Izzy said. Alec looked at them, gave them a nod, and walked over to his couch, throwing himself on top of it.

Everyone stared, not sure what to say or do. Everyone except Jace of course, who pushed passed them and walked into the kitchen, making himself a drink.

"Are you guys going to just stand there and stare at the poor man all day?" Jace asked.

As an answer to his question, they all walked into the apartment, Clary closing the door behind them. Izzy went to sit on the right side of Alec, while Simon sat on another couch. Clary joined Jace in the kitchen.

"So how are you holding up?" Simon asked.

"Izzy dragged us all out of bed and..." Simon stopped talking almost as quickly as he started after receiving a death glare from none other than Isabelle herself. Alec picked his head up to look at everyone. By now Clary and Jace had returned from the kitchen, both with cups of orange juice.

"Overall, I'm fine." Alec stated. They all looked at each other, wondering if that answer should be accepted.

Breaking the awkward silence Clary asked, "So where is Magnus? Is he with a client or something?"

Jace laughed, "I highly doubt the Mr. I'm Obsessed With Glitter would be up right now." Jace continued to laugh. Not even five seconds later Jace's laughing was cut short when he all of sudden was covered in different colors of glitter.

Everyone laughed and Magnus soon appeared in skin tight black jeans and a purple shirt. He was barefoot and shuffled towards the couch. He plopped down on Alec's left side.

"So how is everyone this morning? Biscuit? Sherman? Izzy?" Simon decided to ignore Magnus, he knew that he knew his name.

Jace stood up and screamed, "Reverse the spell!"

Magnus put a finger to his chin, "What spell are you speaking of Goldie Locks?" Jace huffed in anger.

"You know exactly what I'm talking about. Now reverse it!"

Magnus laughed, "Not a chance." Jace huffed again. Alec stopped laughing and leaned towards Magnus, whispering something in his ear. Magnus' laughing ceased and a grin found its way on his face. With a flick of his wrist, Jace was back to normal. There wasn't a fleck of glitter in sight.

"So, now that that's out of the way, we are all spending the day together. Trust me, after last night, we need it." Alec nodded his head, agreeing, while Magnus just smiled.

"I have to get dressed and so does my darling Alec. So we will meet you guys at the park." Everyone gave Magnus a face, except for Jace, he just glared.

"You looked dressed to me." Simon stated plainly.

Magnus laughed, "If you think that I will be going out like this," Magnus pointed towards his makeup less face, "then you don't know me at all Sherman." Magnus then walked away, hearing a "My name is Simon!"

Alec got up, "So I guess we will meet you guys at the park." He motioned them out the door and, after closing it, went to get himself ready. About thirty minutes later, both Alec and Magnus were ready. Alec was ready like twenty-five minutes ago, but Magnus will be Magnus. They both walked, hand in hand, out of the apartment.

When they finally arrived at the park they were greeted by Jace.

"What took you so long? I thought you got killed by a demon or something!"

Magnus laughed, "There are two flaws in that statement. One being I am the High Warlock of Brooklyn and NO demon will be the reason I die. Two, you and Alec, sadly, are parabatai. Therefore, you would know if he was dead." Everyone laughed and Jace turned towards Clary.

"I thought you were supposed to be on my side?" Jace asked, a look of betrayal on his face. Clary lightly smacked his arm.

"I love you too." She pulled him into a brief kiss.

That day at the park everyone had a good time. Jace got chased by ducks and they had a group picnic. Everyone went home with fond memories, except for Jace, who was, as he said, 'traumatized.'
