Magnus was at the institute. He was called in to reinforce the wards. They weren't needed importantly, just in case something bad happened. The reason he went wasn't just for the wards, Alec wasn't allowed out. Sounded like he was grounded, really. Maryse had people coming over, important people, and Alec was on strict orders to not leave along with Jace and Isabelle. Clary was free to go with Simon but only to certain areas, not too far.

The warlock sighed as he was prodded by a worker in the institute. "Excuse me, but are you the boyfriend of Alec? Alec Lightwood?" She asked in a bratty voice. It didn't seem fake either, she was just naturally annoying. Magnus tried his best not to roll his eyes and looked down at her, his glittery eyes blinking. "Yes, I am. Now not to be rude but I have work to do." He tried to ignore her and focus on sorting the wards out.

She wouldn't go away.

"Wow! Really? I didn't know Alec was bisexual!" She sneered in her stupid frog voice. Magnus exhaled through his nose and tried to ignore her. "He's gay actually. I'm the bisexual one." He bit on his lip, drawing blood as he lost his temper. She shook her pigtails and smiled. "Okay bye!" And that was all she said before skipping off. Magnus groaned and balanced the wards out on the east side of the institute.

He threw his hands up, burning blue and red as an opaque barrier shot up one side of the church and fused with the north and south sides. Now he only had the west side to do then he was free to admire Alec and talk till the guests arrived. He really couldn't be bothered to deal with important people. He just wanted Alec and his hugs and stuff. Not  to watch him shake hands with friends of the Inquisitor and hug girls that probably found him hot. When that happens Magnus thought to himself of barging through the door and kissing him. Wow that'd be a good idea he thought, strutting to the west side of the institute.

He got to see Alec twice today. One time when he was walking into the institute. Alec had seen him and kissed him on the lips quickly before being pulled away by a smiling Isabelle to train. The second time was when he was sorting out the south side wards. The south side was where the weapons/training room was, and he had the pleasure of putting the wards up whilst watching his boyfriend spar with his little sister. Alec had smiled at him and stared for a second before being kicked and swung into the floor by Isabelle.

Alec's love for Magnus' face was crazy. It would get him hurt for real sooner or later.

Magnus had reinforced the wards on the last side just as Maryse had walked past and she patted him on the shoulder, a silent sign of gratitude. She wasn't very vocal about Magnus unless Alec was around, but she'd never admit he'd grown on her. She liked him more than she used to, anyway.

He'd smiled proudly when she'd turned her back on him. He thought she'd just get Alec to thank him later, but the fact that she'd thanked him in her own, sort of weird, way was sort of comforting.

Magnus walked with confidence to the south side of the institute where Alec was, still sparring with Isabelle. Magnus sat aside as Isabelle threw Alec a couple of ring daggers, blunt enough to not cut skin but sharp enough to stick in the wall if thrown with enough force. He caught them and nodded at her, not noticing Magnus sat watching. He slipped the ring daggers on his fingers, spinning one, entertained.

Isabelle had the exact same daggers slipped onto her fingers, and was studying Alec as they circled the padded floors. Magnus just realised they were both barefoot, Alec only had black jogging bottoms on and Isabelle was wearing a sports bra and some shiny looking leggings. How did Magnus not see his boyfriends abs when he first walked in? He shook that thought off and watched as wooden boards sprung up behind both Isabelle and Alec. Isabelle was the first to make a move and threw a dagger straight at Alec. He jumped, dodging it and threw his own dagger, the blunt edge grazing Isabelle's thigh.
