Alec couldn’t sleep. No matter how many times he swapped sides; no matter how many times he pummelled his pillow into a more comfortable shape; no matter how many annoying woolly sheep he counted he just could not fall asleep.

Sighing irritatedly Alec rolled over for what felt like the hundredth time to face away from his window and towards the little, wooden side table where he kept his phone-having actually remembered to put it on charge for once.

He stared at it longingly for a few moments.

Although Magnus had text him earlier they had had very little to talk about and Magnus had soon rushed off to deal with a very vexed and persistent client leaving Alec with nothing to do.

Would Magnus mind if he text him now? Would he even still be awake?

Alec struggled internally with his dilemma. Even though he had seen Magnus less than five hours ago he already missed him and although a text wasn’t as good as being with him in person it was better than nothing.

‘But what if he ignores you?’ the annoying little voice in his head taunted him, ‘What if he tells you to stop bugging him and go away?’

‘He wouldn’t do that!’ Alec told himself. Muttering to himself to stop being a wimp Alec finished his internal monologue and grabbed his phone.

Hey he typed and hit send before his brain had a chance to catch up with his actions.

Luckily for him Magnus’s reply was almost immediate.

Hey baby. You just can’t stop coming back for more can you?

Alec collapsed back into his bed in relief, taking his phone with him. He wanted to laugh at how petty and insecure he had been acting and the teasing tone Alec could hear in Magnus’s text made him smile slightly but he head was immediately filled with his next problem: What on earth did he reply with now? He hadn’t really expected Magnus to text back and now that he had Alec had no idea what to say to him.

Biting his bottom lip as he always did when he was worried or trying to think Alec racked his brain for an appropriate response. Finally he decided that he would just go with the truth.

I miss you. He sent it quickly and waited anxiously for the reply.

The answering text made him smile sweetly.

I miss you too, I wish you were here.

Me too.

Magnus’s reply was quick as usual.

Can’t sleep?

No, not without you. I always sleep better when I’m with you.

Magnus loved Alec’s honesty. He was a lot more open through texting-maybe because Magnus wasn’t there to see him blush-when he didn’t have to look at Magnus while he spilled his feelings.

And I with you, my lovely. But you should try and get some rest-especially considering the crazy, god-forsaken hour you always wake up at.

It’s not that early! Just because you don’t even wake up until midday…

Exactly. That is a completely reasonable time to wake up.

Sure…

Honestly Alexander.
