After a long day at work Alec came home and started preparing dinner for him and Magnus. Magnus was still at BÀNE main branch.
"I'm home"
"Welcome home babe"
Alec welcomed Magnus with a warm kiss. Alec's heart sank a bit as Magnus didn't return the kiss with same passion. Alec decide to forget it thinking may be Magnus was really tired.
"How was your day?" Alec asked without releasing his hands on Magnus's hips.
"I'm so tired..."
"Okay. Go take a wash. I'm already preparing dinner for us"
"Thanks."
Alec was confused with Magnus's cold treatment. 'What happened suddenly?' Alec thought to himself. After half and hour Magnus came back wearing just one of Alec's shirts. 'So problem is not with me' Alec thought.
"What are you cooking?" Magnus came near Alec and leaned on to him. Something really was wrong. Alec could feel it.
"Hm...grilled zucchini salad."
"No..... I don't want to.. I want mac and cheese."
"I made something you would like."
"What is it?"
"Kiev pizza with lots of chicken and cheese"
"No way"
"You can have it only if you finish your salad."
"That is. It fair. During the lunch Clary and Izzy didn't let me eat a Big Mac and brought me salad. Eww.. What am I? A rabbit? "
"We have blueberry sundae too." Alec said quickly before Magnus complain more.
"Then I'll finish it. Salad is good for our baby. Isn't it. But can we start our meal from the desert?"
"Magnus..."
"Just kidding.." Magnus grinned.
Just as Magnus promised his finished his salad. Alec would live to give every food Magnus craved but these days Magnus was suffering from real bad heart burn. So before eating something oily or spicy, Alec made sure Magnus eat some fruits and vegetables. Magnus didn't know about that. But he knew Alec did everything for his and their baby's health.
Through out the dinner, Alec saw how Magnus fidgeted around him. By now Alec was sure Magnus was not upset but he was hiding something. And the thing he is hiding must be big as Alec now could smell a thick scent of lime. That scent came from Magnus when he was hiding something. Just like when Magnus hid Chairman meow from Alec for whole two hours.
"Magnus spill"
Alec finally said when he couldn't bare it anymore.
"What?"
"You are hiding something. I can feel it. We are bonded Magnus"
Magnus gulped. Why did he even thought he could hide something from Alec.
"What is it babe? I'm not going it at angry"
"I know.. But this topic .. It's kinda serious.."
"So what is it?"
