NOTES: You may have read this story before. I wrote it a year ago.
I gave it a little facelift and 500 + words.
As Magnus Bane's birthday is today,
on 8 December, it gets its place in 'Queer Bedtime Stories'.
"Magnus honey, are you ready? Remember, wear mundane clothes."
"A little more burgundy in my hair...or should it be blue? ...Alexander, help me to decide."
Alec leaned down to Magnus, standing in front of the mirror, and kissed him gently on the lips.
"You are beautiful just the way you are."
"But which do you like better? It would be easier to decide if I knew where we were going."
"It's a secret. Let it be burgundy. It was like that the first time I kissed you."
Magnus snapped his fingers, and the blue stripes changed to burgundy. He took one last look in the mirror. Even over 400+ years (or who knows exactly. Let's just say that he was alive when the Dead Sea was just a lake.) he was still stunning. He was wearing a tight, navy blue jeans, a loose burgundy, slightly translucent shirt with some gold patterning. After all, he's Magnus Bane, he can't go out without some sparkle. Okay, correction... lots of sparkle. He put on a warm fleece coat. And of course his makeup was perfect, as always.
"I'm ready. where do I open a portal?"
"Nowhere. No magic today. We're going by car. I'll drive."
"Jeez Alexander, we'll never get there."
"Old bear, stop grumbling and enjoy your day."
"Old bear? I'm just barely over 400...Anyway....But who's counting, the point is that my body is like a 20-year-old Adonis."
"Oh sweetheart, that's for sure. and it's as flexible as no one's. You could rewrite the Kama Sutra." Alec said with a grin as he remembered their pleasant activities last night in bed, on the terrace, on the table, and who knows where else.
"Honey, I'm not sharing this with anyone. Only with you, forever and ever." Magnus said as he kissed his husband gently on the lips.
At this point he wondered for a moment. 'forever and ever'... There was nothing he wanted more than to be with his Alexander for eternity. But even if he was the Prince of Edom, the High Warlock of Alicante, he did not have the power to grant immortality. In his remarkably long life, he has already experienced what it is like to have a loved one aging by his side and eventually passing away. The only pain of damned eternity. Alexander was the first he didn't want to outlive. He'd thought about it a lot. They asked for the Clave many times. They asked them to allow Alec to be immortal. But they didn't give him the permission.
"The law is the law" was all they said.
After a while they got tired of it. It's been two years since they submitted their last request. Anyway, Magnus decided he didn't want to outlive Alexander. If he passes away, Magnus will follow. He hadn't told him yet, he knew he wouldn't agree. But he loved him so much, he knew he couldn't bear the pain of losing his Alexander.
"Magnus, you're a little lost. Shall we go? " His mortal love snapped Magnus out of his thoughts.
"I'm okay. We can go. Impress me."
"So, what I have planned for today is a chill, casual date. Nothing fancy, just a date, like we were a mundane couple."
They drove for a while. When they parked, Alec opened the door for Magnus.
