COMPLETED - Malec: A Love Like No Other

Mine

A/N We are back to our Shadow World in this one-shot! Hope you enjoy! All characters belong to Cassandra Clare.

Magnus Bane lived off parties. Alec Lightwood detested them. But it had been 2 years since Magnus had bought a very expensive vase from a store in Japan. That had to be celebrated. And that was why Alec was making his mind up to decide whether he liked Magnus for remembering these little things or whether he was furious that a vase had called for a party. He was definitely leaning more towards furious.

"Chairman Meow," Magnus cooed. "I had this coat made for you, so you better wear it!" "Magnus, you bought a coat for the Chairman?" Alec asked, astounded at what he was hearing when he stepped into Magnus' loft. "Of course, I did, darling, why wouldn't I?" Magnus asked, floating over from the bedroom, kissing Alec on the cheek. Alec rolled his eyes and Magnus brightened. "Ready for the party, my favourite Shadowhunter?" Magnus asked. "No." Alec said. "Ahhh that was a very enthusiastic 'yes' Alexander; time to get you to wear the outfit I got for you!" Magnus squealed, dancing back to the bedroom, gesturing for Alec to follow. Reluctantly Alec did.

Magnus had already covered the massive bed with Alec's and his outfit. Alec's one was a simple blue turtle-neck sweater with blue jeans and Magnus' was a white shirt, that was nearly transparent, a deep purple waistcoat and a black trouser. "Magnus, that is too bright!" Alec complained. "No it is really not, Alexander, so now put it on or I'll magic it on," Magnus threatened. With a dramatic moan, Alec grabbed his outfit and went into the bathroom. "I wouldn't mind seeing your abs!" Magnus called jokily, as he himself slipped on his shirt and trousers. "Magnus. Shut. Up." Alec said from inside the bathroom. "At least let me help you get your sweater on," Magnus called again and heard Alec mumble something, probably a curse. "Or your trousers!" Magnus added. Alec definitely swore this time.

After taking 30 minutes to get all his make-up on and another 30 minutes to get his hair done, Magnus was finally ready. He went to hi front-door, opened it (no one was there yet) and magicked up some writing on the wall. It read: 'Welcome to the humble home of Magnus Bane, where you will be treated to a lavishing night beyond your wildest thoughts, dreams and imagination put together.'  

Alec stood in a corner as guests started filing in. He would've felt better if another Shadowhunter was here, but this was a Downworlder party and Alec was only here because he was Magnus' lover, boyfriend, friend, comforter and Magnus had a made a huge list about what Alec was to Magnus but Alec didn't remember it, he was too paranoid about this party, and a vampire making his way to Alec wasn't helpful.

Magnus stood in the middle of the loft, laughing away when he saw a vampire, (Elijah?) walking towards Alec. Alec was only here because of Magnus and Magnus could see Alec's tension a mile away. Elijah walked to Alec and placed a hand of Alec's shoulder but it looked more intimate than a friendly touch. Deciding Alec might need rescuing, Magnus blew a kiss to the faerie he was talking to and walked over to Alec. The faerie produced a lot of drool at Magnus' way of saying goodbye.

"Elijah!" Magnus fake-exclaimed and saw relief dance over Alec's face. Alec took the chance to move away and stand beside Magnus and Magnus wrapped a hand around Alec's waist, kissing his cheek. "Magnus Bane, one hell of a party here," Elijah said and then added with a wink at Alec, "and one hell of a guest." Alec looked like he'd either punch Elijah or throw him out of a window. Deciding either scenarios were bad, Magnus said, "Isn't he just a knockout, but he's taken." Elijah sighed dramatically, "What a shame". And just at that moment, a slow song came out of Magnus' enchanted music player. "May I have this dance, sir?" Elijah asked Alec. A little more snappy than he intended it, Magnus said, "He's taken," and pulled Alec closer. "A friendly dance," Elijah pushed and stuffing his anger down, Magnus let go off Alec and Alec looked like he was about to puke when Elijah guided him away, one hand resting above Alec's waist and the other interlinked with Alec's.

Alec tried his best to dance as far away from Elijah as it was possible, but Elijah was making it rather difficult. He kept pushing his body next to Alec's and Alec kept moving back. "So you're taken, huh?" Elijah asked, licking his lower lip. "Yes, I very much am," Alec said back. Elijah let go off Alec and Alec was relieved but it was short-lived. Elijah, using his vamp strength, grabbed onto Alec's sweater and pulled him towards the kitchen. Alec, taking his moment when Elijah tried to kiss him, pushed back and crouched, ready to fight if that's what this came to.

Magnus, though he was dancing with the faerie who was drooling about him, kept his eyes on his Alexander. His Alexander. So when Elijah grabbed Alec's sweater, pulling him away from the crowd, Magnus let go of the faerie, Tyla, and followed the two men, one who he adored and the other who he hated with a burning passion. Once in the kitchen doorway, he saw Elijah trying to kiss his Alexander and his Alexander pushing him back, and crouching low, ready to fight.

"Elijah, I though I told you Alec was taken," Magnus said, sauntering into the room. Alec made his way over to Magnus and this time, it was Alec who pulled Magnus close, kissing the warlock's cheek. A fuming and embarrassed Elijah went to the sitting room and Magnus took this opportunity to kiss Alec on the mouth, smiling against the curve of Alec's lips. When they pulled away, Magnus strolled into the sitting room, turned his music player off and said in  loud, clear voice: "PARTY'S OVER BECUASE SOMEONE TRIED STEALING SOMEONE WHO BELONGS TO ME, SO EVERYONE OUT!"

Alec watched, with a grin as everyone made their way out. "Jealous, much?" he teased. Magnus rolled his eyes. "Alexander, I don't want someone else behaving badly with you, you're mine!" Magnus exclaimed and Alec laughed. "I'll always be yours, Magnus," Alec said as he caught Magnus' elbows in his fingers and drew the warlock towards him. "You better always be mine," Magnus whispered with a laugh. "I will," Alec promised, and leaned in, kissing Magnus softly. The kisses became bone-meltingly deep and the couple stayed there, in the sitting room, kissing, for a very long time.
