Alec was looking at his husband for few seconds. His brain was still processing what his husband just said before.
"Mom's name?" Alec asked again to just make sure.
"Yes Alexander"
"But why?"
"You don't want to?"
"NO NO.. I want to.. I mean why would you? She treated you so badly for so long."
"Alexander, Mom wanted only the best for you. That's why she thought I'm not for you. She wanted you to have prestigious life with a powerful wife by your side. That's what she imagined as your future. That's what she was thought as success. Now she knows that's is not true. Now she knows what we have is more powerful than anything. Have you seen when she talks about Max, Rafe and our baby girl?. Her eyes she shine. And I see a mother figure from your mom. I want this."
Alec was trying hard not to cry. 'Just how understanding this man could be' Alec thought.
Magnus sensed his alpha's feelings.
"Don't cry. If not I'm also gonna cry then you'll have to feed me ice cream to stop me from crying" Magnus said as a joke. But Alec knew if Magnus started crying it won't stop for a while.
"MAGNUS" Alec just his husband tightly as if he was afraid Magnus was gonna disappear. As of Magnus was a beautiful dream he can never have.
"I love you. I love you babe. More than anything. I love you"
"I love you too Alexander" Magnus kissed Alec's shoulder blades. Alec didn't let go his Magnus and stayed liked for few minutes.
"Babe?" Magnus suddenly talked to Alec.
"Hm..." Alec was still holding Magnus.
"I want ice cream"
Alec pulled back and looked at Magnus. Magnus looked guilty but his words didn't sound guilty.
"Cookie dough?"
"Yes please daddy" Magnus winked. Alec frowned and got up. But when he turned his back to Magnus he couldn't hide his smile. Magnus was too cute for words. And Magnus calling him daddy made Alec feel adult things.
When Alec returned with ice cream Magnus was changing his cloths and he was clearly struggling. It was way too hard to put on a trouser. Magnus was missing wearing his tight trousers. Just putting a sweat pant was too much for him.
"Why didn't you wait for me? How many times do I have to repeat the same thing." Alec's voice was not stern.
"Well sorry for trying to do something by myself. For one I wanted to be independent" Magnus rolled his eyes and sat on the bed. He was already hurt by how he couldn't put on his own trouser. He was now only wearing his top. Alec's words were like fuel to his fire. And there were hormones as well. It was quite easy to make Magnus angry these days.
"Babe" Alec put the ice cream bowls on top of a table and walked to Magnus.
"You don't have to do things by yourself. I know you don't like depending on others but im your husband. You are like this because of you are carrying my baby. Let me do those small things for you." Alec kneeled in front of Magnus.
"I..I'm sorry Alexander. I just don't know what happened"
"You don't have to apologize. I understand what you go through babe" Alec was serious.
"Well I don't think you understand. You don't have a six month old living thing on your stomach. Only the chicken you are this morning come close to that"
