Two words. THE FEEELLLSSS. ENJOY. 💕
Magnus POV
Alec sat at the table in his boxers, black hair ruffled and eyes looking at the palms of his hands unable to reveal his face that was still tear stained. Magnus laid a steaming cup a pure black coffee in a blue chilled mug before he boyfriend. No milk, no sugar, how Alec liked it. He glanced at the clock -3:03am- perfect time to be awake he thought to himself, he was missing dire beauty sleep. But his boyfriend needed him. He set down his own cup of coffee and knelt over besides Alec.
"Baby.." He said gently "take your hands away from your face sweetheart, c'mon." He took Alec's wrists and slowly eased his hands away from his face. Blood shot eyes looked back at him. He looked like he had de -aged ten years, instead of 19 he looked like a scared little boy. His hands shook in Magnus's hold. His face fell seeing his boyfriend in this frightened state.
"Alec, what is it?"
Alec just shook his head refusing to say words to him and just took away his hands folding them in his lap. He murmured something under his breathe that Magnus didn't quite catch. "What Hun?" He leaned in.
"I'm not a weak little boy." He spoke quietly shuddering afterwards.
Magnus confused why he would think such a thing stood up and wrapped his arms around him. "Baby of course your not. Now what's the matter?"
Alec once again shook his head. "Just nightmares." he croaked. "Nothing big."
Magnus didn't believe just a "nightmare" had caused Alec to go into such hysterics. But he didn't want to push his boyfriend past the breaking point right now. "Okay sweetheart. Want to go back to sleep?"
Alec stood going to put the empty mug in the sink. Magnus eyed up his pale muscular back, crossed over and over again with white lines of faded runes, there were a lot of scars, some didn't even look like runes. Battle scars he assumed. But god his body was beautiful. Magnus allowed himself to go on staring in awe unknown to himself that he was smirking, until Alec turned around and started to laugh.
Magnus blushed, embarrassed but Alec just pecked him on the lips. " Nah, I'm too awake now. But you go back to sleep babe I'm fine."
"You sure?" Magnus raised a thin, plucked eyebrow in concern.
"Promise." Alec said steadily, wrapping his arms around Magnus's waist, with that he pushed himself up on his toes a bit and pressed his lips into his boyfriends. Magnus smiled into the kiss returning the affection, and the shadowhunter parted his lips expertly entering him. The perfect clash of lips and tongue. When their nostrils could provide no more air, they parted panting and dazed.
"That's made me sure." Magnus giggled.
Alec smiled showing a row of straight slightly coffee stained teeth. Magnus should really get him some whitening toothpaste, but then again he enjoyed Alec just as he was. "Of the sleep again." Alec gently nudged Magnus towards the hall.
Laughing Magnus called out a good morning and crawled back beneath the covers of his bed which had grown cold without their body heat. He lay on his back for a moment pondering, what Alec's nightmare could have been about for his darling beauty to react so badly.
He would try again for answers later, and with that he drifted back off to sleep.
In his sleep he had heard the shower starting and stopping but didn't allow it to fully wake him up. He woke to the sound of rummaging drawers, he pried open his eyes to the sun streaming in through the floral curtains. Alec stood back on working on a baggy black sweater with a pair of shredded jeans, they weren't like that when they were bought, that just how old they were. Alec didn't care about his clothes, again another trait Magnus enjoyed about him unlike himself who had to always be at the height of fashion.
Sitting up Magnus yawned and Alec turned looking at him as if he had forgotten his was there his eyes wide at first, then they softened. His face broke into a grin and he picked up his coffee mug he had used earlier sipping from in nodding toward the nightstand. Magnus turned to see a steaming cup of chai tea waiting for him. Just what he always had in the morning. His boyfriend was truly the best. Summoning a robe from his closet with a flick of his hand, Alec dogged out of the way so he wouldn't collide with the flying object, Magnus pulled in on over his cherry blossom silk pyjama pants. The robe was black with red trim so it matched perfectly just how Magnus liked it.
"Breakfast is on the table." He smiled
"Has anyone every told you your amazing?" I asked giving him a peck on the cheek.
We sat at the table to a breakfast of scrambled eggs and toast, slightly burned but I didn't say anything. I was proud that he made it himself without burning himself unlike last time. God that was horrific. Gulping down a glass of orange juice I thought it was a good time to pop the question.
"So Alec, what was that nightmare about?" I asked.
Alec with coffee cup half way to his lips paused, "I told you, just a stupid nightmare. No big deal."
"Babe you were in hysterics, it must have-"
"It was nothing. Okay Magnus?" Alec cut him off sharply.
Magnus shrunk back a little nodding to Alec who had taken there dishes and began washing them. Silently Magnus got up and began to ready himself for the day. Thick eyeliner, glitter eye shadow and hair gel. His daily routine, he quickly pulled on electric bile jeans, and a metallic long sleeved shirt saying "money can't buy me" across it.
I had made up my mind what I was doing for the day. Walking into the living room Alec had his he and bent over a book mouthing the words to himself. He was so adorable when he did that. Magnus nervously paused, then shook it off striding into the living room hauling on his leather jacket with the spikes on the shoulders. "I gotta go out baby, be back in an hour or two."
Snapped out of the reverie Alec's head jerked up at Magnus. "Where you going?"
"Client." Magnus called back heading for the door.
"Wait Magnus!" Alec sprinted up towards him grabbing his boyfriends wrist. "Look I'm sorry I snapped earlier I just....I just.."
Magnus smiled at the poor boys stuttering and kissed him quick in the lips. "It's alright babe. Trust me."
Smiling happily Alec return his kiss giving him a hug and Magnus exited through the door. Exhaling his guilt after he closed it. He hated lying to Alec but it was necessary in this situation. He needed to know what had shaken Alec up so badly. If he couldn't get the answers out of Alec maybe he could get them out of Isabelle.
