Alec pulled into the McDonalds drive-through and the woman asked though the speaker what they wanted to order. Both of them looking intently at the menu as they tried to decide.

"Can I have a large quarter pounder cheeseburger meal. Can you take out the onion and add extra pickles, please? I'll have a coke with that" Magnus called out.

"Anything else?" The woman asked.

"Yeah. I'll have a Large Big Mac meal but can you take out the lettuce and add extra cheese, please? I'll have a Fanta with it" Alec said before turning to Magnus. "You want anything else?"

"No thank you" Magnus smiled.

"Okay that's it," Alec said to the woman who told them to drive round to the payment window.

"Hi, that will be $18.98. Would you like to give the extra $1.02 to charity and round your total up to $20?" The woman smiled.

"Yeah that's perfect," Alec said as he handed her a $20 note and pulled forward to the next window. Where their food ready and waiting for them.

Magnus took the bag on his lap and put the drinks into Alec's cup holders before they pulled out the drive-through and headed towards their home. Magnus stealing fries from the bag and then offered Alec some who took them in his mouth and smirked as he sucked at the tip of Magnus's fingers.

"You're a tease" Magnus commented with a pout.

"You won't be saying that after we have eaten" Alec winked as he put his foot down a little more.

Magnus chuckled at that and shook his head as he carried on eating the fries, offering some to Alec every now and then. He turned his head at one point to look at Alec and smiled at his boyfriend who was concentrating on driving. He didn't want to look away so he just watched happily until Alec turned and caught him staring.

"You okay?" Alec asked, seeing Magnus blush a little.

"Yeah. It's just... You're beautiful" Magnus replied. He watched as Alec reached over and took his hand and brought it up to his lip, putting a small kiss across his knuckles and making Magnus melt under the touch.

"So are you" Alec replied glancing at Magnus before returning his eyes to the road as they drove home.

It wasn't long until they pulled up to the apartment complex and went inside, catching sight of two police officers talking to the doorman as they looked at each other in confusion as to what was going on. That was until they were stopped by the words of the doorman telling the police that one of them was the one they were looking for.

"Excuse me, Mr Bane?" The male police officer called out. Magnus turning to face them.

"Yes?" He replied hesitantly, now wondering if this had anything to do with his kidnapping.

"I am PC Taylor and this is my partner PC Layton Are we able to talk somewhere more private please?" Taylor asked after showing them their credential.

"Of course but can I ask what this is about?" Magnus asked as he hit the button for the elevator.

"It's regarding your father, Mr Asmodeus Bane and a young woman called Miss Camille Belcourt," Layton said in a soft voice.

"Oh, right. Well, I don't have anything to do with either of them so I don't really care what they have been up to now" Magnus frowned and folded his arms. Alec resting a hand on his shoulder to comfort him.

"Mr Bane, if you would please show us upstairs we can discuss this further but you need to know" Taylor injected firmly. Magnus sighed as the elevator appeared and they piled in before hitting the floor for their apartment.
