Malec one shots

Magnus, scotch and cherry candy

Alecs pov

She looks...well she looks beautiful. Her dress is the perfect shade of white and it matches the flowers in her hands. My heart is racing in my chest but I cant tell if it's from nerves or what. She is smiling, I'm not. I cant smile. I can't even force a smile on my lips, because it's not her. It's not her who I want. It's not even her kind that I want. I'm starting to hear my heartbeat. Not just feel it hear it. I wonder if Jace can hear it too. He's right next to me and I can tell he knows that I'm shaking because he puts his hand on my shoulder with a reassuring smile.

She reaches the end of the aisle and I hold out my hand to help her up the stairs. Izy hands her the bracelet and she smiles. She smiles and she smiles and she smiles. She smiles like this is what she wants. Like she wasn't to marry me. Like we haven't just met two weeks ago. Like there is no one in the world that she loves but me. That she actually loves me. I wish I could say that I wouldn't rather have someone else standing there. And I wish that I loved her. I want more than anything to love her. But I don't.

I reach for her necklace form the small pillow Jace is holding. I wrap the necklace around her small. Neck. his skin is soft and perfect, only the runes making it rough and bumpy. I hold her hand and we turn toward the brother. He begins speaking. Speaking of what I cannot tell. My mind is to loud right now to hear anything else. Anything other than my rapidly beating heart. I take a deep breath and try to hear what he is saying.

"A rune on the hand and a rune on the heart," he says, then all I hear is my heart again.

She takes a stele and places it near my wrist. I want to pull my hand back. I want to protest. I've never dreaded getting a rune so much in my life. Then I hear a door slam. She turns her attention toward the noise and so does i. Footstep and loudly marching into the room.

And then there he is.

My heart drops to my feet.

Imnot sure I'm breathing right now. I'm not sure I know how. Magnus is just staring at me, I'm just staring at him. I don't know what to do. I want to run down there, take his hand and leave everything. Never look back. I want him. Even when his hair like that, all spiked up. I want to smile because it kinda looks ridiculous. But then again it Magnus. His ridiculousness is just part of his amazing charm.

Mother turns around. I can see the anger in her eyes as she says, "whats that warlock doing here?" her voice is almost as harsh as when she's yelling at me. But she's not yelling at me. She...well she looks like she might kill me. Or worse...Magnus.

"Izzy,"I hear Jace say from behind me, "did alec invite Magnus?"

"I did," she says. "I didn't think he'd show," she sounds happy. She sounds happy that Magnus came here and is making this all to hard for me. Because I'm going to do it. A really am. Him being here is just a distraction.

Mom gets up from her seat and I'm sure now that she is going to kill him. "Magnus leaves this wedding now," she says, rage and hatred flooding her voice.

"Maryse, this is between me and your son, I'll leave if he asks me to," Magnus says. I have to ask him to leave. I have to. Him being here is making this to hard. He has to leave.

Magnus's eyes lock on mine. I know I'm not breathing now. All I want to do is look into those eyes, but there is another pair of eyes right in front of me. And those are the ones I have to look at.

"Are you going to be okay buddy?" Jace says into my ear.

Litia starts laughing, breathing heavily. I look back at the eyes that I know mine is supposed to be locked on. "Hey" she breaths, and laughs again.

"I-i can't breathe,"I tell her trying to catch the breath Magnus had just stolen.

"I know," she says still smiling, "its okay"

"I cant do this," I say shaking my head. " I thought we were doing the right thing but this isn't it."

"You don't have to explain,"

"Litia I'm sorry," I say shaking my head again.

"Hey," she places her hand on my neck, still smiling "you deserve to be happy," and she's still smiling. She rubs her thumb on my cheek, "it okay, ill be fine" I take a deep breath and turn toward Magnus. I glance around at the crowd, feeling their confusion and my mother anger. She's standing at the end of the aisle now, but I can still feel her fire like eyes burning my skin. But none of that matters, because Magnus is here, right in front of me. That's what matters.

I make my way down the aisle and I can see mom storming toward me. But my eyes don't move from Magnus's. "Alec what are you doing,"I don't stop, I don't even look at here.

"Enough"

I keep walking. I don't know what I'm going to do when I get to him. Am I going to kiss him? That's what ill do...ill kiss him

I make it to the end of the aisle where Magnus is standing. I take both my hands and grab his collar, pulling him close to my mouth. I kiss him. Hard and passionate. And I can feel him smiling into my mouth. He tastes of scotch and cherry candies, but i love it. My lips open and his tongue slides in. i kiss him even harder, with more determination then i have ever had. I know i cant breath now. I pull back for air, and his head keeps chasing my lips and he leans forward. His eyes aren't locked on mine anymore, they're glued to my lips.

 It has only been two seconds since my lips were on his but I feel empty. So I kiss him again. Softer this time, this time immediately his tongue is in my mouth and it feels...it feels so, so good. I don't know what's going to happen after I pull away from his mouth, quite frankly I don't really care. All i can think about right now is scotch and cherry candy. Even if the world crashes and burns when i let go of his collar, i know everything is going to be okay. Magnus bane...scotch and cherry candy.
