Lover

London Boy

Summary: Magnus and Alec have been in a long-distance relationship for five months and a half now and everything is going fine, until Magnus slowly stops calling and texting for some reason Alec doesn't know.

M- Wouldn't it be fun to meet?

A- Well, yeah, of course but you live in America, Magnus. My parents won't pay for the flight, they want me to focus on university, you know that, and I don't have enough money myself to come.

M- :( what if I came to London?

A- It's expensive, I don't want you to spend that much.

M- It's my money :)

A- I won't let you inside if you come, then. :)

M- Alexander!

A- Magnus!

M- You're an idiot

A- :) and you're this idiot's boyfriend, so what does that make you?

M- Certainly not an idiot <3

A- Sure.

Alec put his phone down, a goofy grin on his face, something Magnus always managed to do to him. He was trying to study but the constant vibration of his phone, telling him Magnus had sent him a message wasn't letting him.

He switched his phone to silent mode, not wanting any more distractions. He was on his first year in university and he had done great so far, he didn't want to fail an exam now because of Magnus Bane, the man he was in love with, the one who lived in America, the one who called him 'His London Boy.'

Alec's cheeks reddened, thinking about that. Dating Magnus was amazing, what wasn't so good was the whole online relationship thing. He would do anything to have Magnus there with him, living in London. He read the same line he had been reading for a minute now, thinking about Magnus, once more daydreaming about them living in the same city.

The blue-eyed man looked up from the book, staring at the wall in front of him for a few seconds, before sighing and taking his phone. He couldn't concentrate knowing that Magnus had answered.

M- I'm bored :(

M- what are you doing?

M- Alexandeeeeer!

M- A

M- L

M- E

A- you can stop now, I'm back.

M- C

M- I missed youuu!

Alec licked his lips, his cheeks redder and the smile wider. Magnus never failed to cheer him up with his texts.

A- I was gone for two minutes, Magnus.

M- do I look like I care :)

A- I can't see you right now. :(

*incoming call from Magnus <3*

Alec jumped off his chair and went to the bathroom quickly, just to check his hair wasn't the usual mess; his hair was, indeed, the usual mess, so he shook his head and went back to his chair.

He answered the call and put the phone against his pencil case, so he wouldn't have to hold it.

"Hey, darling." Magnus' voice interrupted the silence in his room, the beautiful American man appearing in his screen. "You weren't answering and I thought you died or something."
