"Here we go." Maryse whispered as she brought Alec into view, his head held high but his expression a shy blush. He was clearly trying his best not to flee.

Magnus was stood facing him, smiling shyly at the altar, Lupin behind him, grinning. Both of them were shaking inside, thinking of all the things that could possibly go wrong. Magnus could tell by Alec's expression that he wasn't enjoying being the centre of attention and Alec knew that Magnus was loving it. A strange couple indeed, an immortal shadowhunter who is very shy and wears plain clothing with a rather young warlock who loves being a social butterfly and wears clashing outfits that makes a lot of girls cringe because of their OCD.

The music slowed, becoming distant in the background as Magnus held out his hand with a smile, Maryse and Alec now stood in front of him. Maryse looked up at her son briefly before looking at the man he would marry and she smiled also. She took her arm out of Alec's and he looked at her in shock, as if not expecting she would so willingly hand her son over. For the handing of hands signalled she would no longer look after him, that was Magnus' job now.

Alec gripped onto Magnus' hand as if it were a lifeline; as if that if he let go then he would plummet to his death or everything would go wrong. Magnus was a little more calm now, but first they still had to do all their vows and say their 'I dos'; but if Alec said no...

"We are gathered here today, to join Magnus Bane and Alexander Lightwood. One warlock, one shadowhunter." The crowd had fallen silent, not that they weren't stock silent to begin with, now the air was thick with held up emotion.

"Now, considering this is no normal wedding, we shall skip the lot of religion, no one wishes to be bound together under Lilith's name.So if anyone would like to stop the wedding, speak up now!" No one spoke, much to the couple's relied. "Alright then, let's begin."

Lupin spoke for a few minutes about uniting and their eternal bond, even beyond the grave and there was a collective gasp when he said, "I believe you two have written your own vows?" Magnus nodded, opening his mouth to speak but Alec interrupted.

Jace had brought up their two diamond encrusted wedding rings on a velvet cushion; Alec had taken one carefully and slid it onto Magnus' ringer finger and held his hand there, tightly clasped between his own. Then he began to speak.

"I, Alexander Lightwood, vow to protect you with my life, to love you with all my heart and soul, to never leave your side no matter what happens. If you fall ill, I will look after you. If you are upset, I will comfort you. I will do everything in my power to make your life the best it can be, and I can only hope that for the rest of our days left in this planet, until the day I die and beyond, I will look after you. Before I met you, I was in the closet, I didn't have any friends and the only one I had eyes for was my brother; but meeting you was the probably the best thing that's ever happened to me. So today I ask you, Magnus Bane, to be my husband..." Alec had tears in his eyes, on the brink of bursting.

Magnus was nervous he couldn't top that, his vows didn't seem nearly as loving. He took the other other ring and slid it carefully onto Alec's ring finger and held it there, held gently between his own. "I, Magnus Bane, vow to look after you in every way possible. I already love you with all that I can but I'm hoping our marriage can enlarge my heart so I can love you more than infinity itself. I will love you and protect you forever. When the time comes for me to die, I can only hope I will live on in your heart until your days too, come to an end. I shall comfort you in times of need, I will pamper you like a spoilt rich child when you fall ill. Through thick and thin, I will never leave you. I vow to never break these promises. And so I , Magnus Bane, ask with all my heart poured into this question, for you, Alexander Lightwood, to be my eternal husband."

Lupin looked over the crowd, Isabelle was crying already but Maryse was managing to holding it in. Shadowhunters didn't cry much, but it seemed marriages were an exception to let it all out.

"Do you, Alexander Lightwood, take Magnus Bane, to be your husband for the rest of your days?" He gave him a stern look, eyes flashing a brief yellow.

Alec didn't even look, his eyes were looking directly into Magnus' as of he were staring directly into his soul. "I do.." He smiled, tears beginning to spill.

"And you, Magnus Bane, taking Alexander Lighteood, to be your eternal husband?" Even Lupin was fighting tears now.

"Of course I do... And I won't say those words to anyone else." He gripped onto Alec's tie tightly, waiting for the allowance to kiss him.

"Well then, I officially pronounce under the Crosse name that you are now husband and husband. May the demons bother to bless you... Now kiss already!"

Magnus chuckled slightly through his tears and tugged on Alec's tie, making him tumble forward and their lips crash together. The little crowd that they had gathered as family and friends all stood up and cheered, clapping loudly with grins on their faces and tears down their cheeks. The few less close people, such as Clary, just smiled, proud for Alec that he's finally happy instead of the grumpy git she was introduced to.

The kiss was short and sweet but at the same time it was deep a passionate, the both of them pouring their entire heart and soul into it, still having bottled up emotions they needed to let out. Hands clutching at each other's clothing, things getting heated, minds drifting from their surroundings. But Magnus pulled away.

"Magnus...?" Alec looked up at him through his lashes, "why'd you stop?"

He smiled and stroked Alec's cheek, "save that for later, we still have an audience." Alec blushed and looked behind him, everyone staring.

But Alec smiled, enjoying the attention. He was the first shadowhunter to marry a warlock, the first gay shadowhunter to marry too, and, the first one to be made immortal. He was special, and he was loving it. I'm married.. He thought, now my life begins.
