Quest For Love (And Maybe Even Saving the World in Process)

Chapter 3

"I wish I could have you back, but I can't. You didn't let me finish, leaving me for your thoughts. I might be old, but am still not wise. I shouldn't have chased you. Letting you go would've been my best option. Relations between Downworlders and Shadowhunters are terrible these days. I can't get a bad reputation."

"But what about Jocelyn and Luke? Simon and Izzy?" I asked.

"Jocelyn was an important Shadowhunter when she hid the Cup and Lucian is an important member of the Council. Simon is the Daylighter, rules don't apply to him," he answered. "And I was actually begging for your forgiveness for what I was about to do."
He bent down to kiss me. Instantly, my hands were wrapped around his neck. I parted my lips, waiting for that kiss I had wanted for the last months. It finally came. Desperation, passion and desire filled that kiss.

The next thing I knew, I was in Magnus' bedroom. He magically brought us to his apartment and I was thankful for that. Never our lips separated, never our kiss ended. We laid on his bed, reminiscing memories, laughing. It felt so good to have him back, even just for a few hours. But I knew I had to leave soon. And I didn't want to.

"Will we ever see each other again?" I then asked Magnus

"Secretly, yes," he began. "In front of the Clave, never."

"You are the High Warlock of Brooklyn. Don't you have any privileges?" I replied.

"Of course," he added, "but I'm not supposed to date mortals. Mourning you at your death and not accomplishing my duties? The Clave would despise that. I was never allowed to date you, Alec. Kissing you when we got the binding rune was my biggest mistake."

"Why... Why was it your biggest mistake?" I asked.

"The Clave knew about our love at that moment. And they didn't like it. They told me to stop seeing you," Magnus replied.

"Oh," was all I found to answer.

I put my hand on his and kissed him once more. His lips against mine was the best feeling in the world. He sighed and I smiled.

"A bunch of people with the collective intelligence of a pineapple won't forbid me from seeing you," I said.

Magnus laughed softly and replied, "Unfortunately for us, they are the people who can rip your runes off and get you kicked out of my life, Jace's and Isabelle's."

I buried my face in his chest, tears running down my cheeks once again. I've never been a sensitive person showing my emotions, but everything was so easy with him.

"Alexander," Magnus whispered slowly.

I lifted up my head from his chest, expecting him to tell me I had to go. All he did was wipe them off and smile sadly. I've seen a few mundane movies and knew about those impossible love stories. I just never thought it could apply to me. I was scared and overwhelmed at the same time. For once in my life, I would to something forbidden, but that also pleased me.

"You should go now," said Magnus. "Your family will wonder where you are."

"Please don't make me leave," I begged. "I could stay overnight."

"Don't be ridiculous, Alexander. You and I both know it isn't cautious," he replied.

"You're right. As always," I added, smiling.

A smile crossed his face and I took his hand. I placed it on my heart and pressed my forehead to his. We stayed like this for a moment, eyes shut. It was so much more powerful than a kiss, meant so much more.

I let go of his hand. We looked in each other's eyes one last time and went our separate ways.

And I need ideas so...

-Should Malec get back together secretly?

-Should the council discover about them?

-Should Camille come in and get in the way of Malec's love story?

-Should they double date with Clace, Sizzy and Jaia?

-Should either Magnus or Alec get kidnapped?

-Should one half of Malec die? (Hahaha just kidding, I'm leaving that to Cassie and CoHF :P)

-Do you have any other suggestion?

Remember I don't own these characters, they are the propriety of the wonderful Cassandra Clare :)
