"Are you ready to go, darling?" Magnus asks, walking up to alec and pecking him on the lips.
"Are you sure about this, mags?"
"Of course I am. I love going out with my husband."
"Even though everyone stares at us because I look so much older then you?"
"It doesn't matter what other people think, does it?"
"No."
"Ok." Magnus says, pulling alec out of the loft.
*********
"Excuse me?"
"Yes." Magnus says, looking up at the man who just appeared at their table.
He looks at alec and says, "would it be ok if I danced with your son?"
"I'm...."
"Its fine." Alec answers.
Magnus looks at alec, wanting to know why but is pulled out of his chair and onto the dance floor. Alec watches for a moment then walks outside.
"Alexander." Magnus says, walking out and up to him.
"What?"
"What was that about?"
"Call it a reality check."
"What are you talking about?"
"Magnus, I look old enough to be your father and that is what everyone thinks when we are seen together."
"Alexander." Magnus says, walking up close to him and placing his hands on alecs chest. "It doesn't matter what other people think of us. What matters is that we love each other. Right?"
"Yeah."
"Besides I like younger men. You're the one who likes older men."
Alec chuckles and kisses him then takes magnus's hand as they walk back home.
