"Where are you going?" Magnus asks alec, walking into their bedroom.
"How did you know I was going somewhere?"
"The packed suitcases kind of gave it away."
"Well, I have to go have a meeting with the queen of alacante."
"Why?"
"She has got it in her head that we broke the peace treaty we had with them."
"So, you have to go smooth it over."
"Yeah." He says, pulling magnus close. "I already have a headache thinking about it."
"Why don't I go with you?"
Alec smiles and says, "I was hoping you would want to go that's why I had your stuff packed also."
"I will go with you anywhere." Magnus says, kissing him.
*********
Alec falls face first on the bed in his and magnus's room in alacante with a groan.
"Is it that bad?" Magnus asks, rubbing his shoulders.
"I swear she is crazy."
"Are you not getting anywhere with her yet?"
"No. The only thing she is doing so far is accusing us but not giving any proof."
"How about I try to distract you?"
"And how would you do that?" Alec asks, rolling onto his back.
"I'm sure I can think of something." Magnus says, kissing alecs chest.
As magnus kisses his neck, alecs phone rings.
"What?" Magnus says, answering it after ignoring it the first time.
"Magnus, it's izzy."
"Izzy, what's wrong?"
"We are having a problem with the boys."
"I'll be on home as soon as I can." He says, hanging up the phone.
"What's going on?" Alec asks, sitting up.
"It's the boys."
"We'll both go."
"No. You stay here and do what you need to do." He says, rubbing alec's cheek. "I'll take care of it."
"Ok." Alec says, kissing magnus.
