Sleepover - Part 4

A/N All characters belong to Cassandra Clare. Hope you enjoy!

Everyone had had their seven shots and Jace was looking at Magnus with some deep seriousness in his eyes. Magnus was looking back quizzically. "Can I get a bottle of beer, Magnus?" Jace asked and Magnus obliged, magicking up a bottle of beer into Jace's hands. Jace looked at it dreamily and drank.

"He's going to be really baldy hungover tomorrow," Clary stated, biting her lower lips. "I'd like to join him," Izzy announced and looked at Magnus. Magnus, before Izzy started speaking, magicked up a can of beer in her hands too. Izzy cheered and fell onto the couch, Jace following suit. 

"Since they are both intent on getting drunk," Simon said, gesturing to his girlfriend and Jace, "Should we watch a movie or something?" "Or we could do each other's make-up!" Magnus offered and Clary brightened. "I'll take up on the movie offer," Alec said and dragged the love-seat in front of the TV and sat down, Simon falling next to him. With a squeal, Clary danced off the the bedroom along with Magnus, talking about what type of foundation to use.

Alec and Simon had decided on watching some action-thriller and carefully, Alec asked, "Is it weird if you propose at a sleepover?" Simon covered his mouth with his hands and then dropped his hands rapidly and exclaimed, "Oh my God-" Simon grunted as Alec's fist connected to his stomach, not painfully but enough to shut him up. "Shush," Alec said sternly, "It's a surprise if I do it."

Simon was gaping at Alec. "No it's not weird," Simon reassured Alec, "Go for it." Alec nodded but he seemed far away. "Jace and Izzy are drunk, so they won't care," Alec said, more to himself than Simon, "I'll just have to get Clary out of the bedroom." Alec stood up determinedly and walked to the bedroom and knocked, Simon still looking hopeful and surprised.

Clary opened the door, one of her eyebrows covered in black and the other one pale. "Yes?" Clary asked as if she was in a very important meeting. Alec dragged Clary away from the doorway and shut the door swiftly. "I'm going to propose to Magnus," Alec whispered and as soon as he sensed that Clary was going to squeal, he covered her mouth with his hands. "It's a surprise," he repeated and gestured for Clary to go to the sitting room. Nodding brightly, Clary disappeared and with a deep breath, Alec walked into the bedroom.

"Clary?" Magnus said, still looking at the mirror, "Get the purple eyeshadow, dear." "It's me," Alec said, throat going immediately dry. "Alexander!" Magnus exclaimed, turning to look at his boyfriend. "Hey," Alec said and kneeled over by the chair Magnus was sitting on. Magnus cupped Alec's cheek and guided Alec towards him and their lips met halfway, the kiss soft as the moon.

Alec pulled away first but not far away. He then positioned himself so that he was only on one knee rather than both. Magnus looked at Alec with a questioning look. Alec fished in his trouser pocket for the ring he had put ten in there in the evening. When he held it out, Magnus' mouth opened, startled.

"Magnus, I know I don't have an eternity with you but I want every moment that I do have with you to count so much. I love you and no word could describe how much I love you. This, right now, might come close to what I feel for you  and how much I love you. So, Magnus Bane, will you marry me?"

Magnus looked at Alec, his eyes open. No one had wanted to marry him more. No one had vowed to spend every living moment with him. Only Alec had wanted that. And Magnus knew that he wanted this; he wanted this because it was Alec. His Alec. Magnus cupped Alec's cheek and gave him another soft kiss before saying, "Of course I'll marry you."

After a few bright moments of kissing against the mirror, Magnus and Alec made their way out to the sitting room where Jace and Izzy looked half asleep and Clary and Simon were playing cards. The sober pair looked up and one look at Magnus and Alec's face told them enough. Clary flew to give both of them hugs and Simon whispered a very happy 'congratulations.'

Izzy and Jace stirred at Clary's loud sqeals and Jace slurred, "Whas happenin'?" Clary answered him delightedly: "Your parabatai is engaged, that's what happened!" That seemed to stop Jace being drowsy. He shot up and gave Alec a sloppy hug and gave Magnus a high-fi that was badly coordinated. "Congrats!" Jace said and moved back to the couch, falling back. Izzy muttered a 'I'm happy for you' before her eyelids drooped. Magnus was sure that Jace and Izzy had downed their beer extremely quickly and had helped themselves to more alcohol that Magnus had in the kitchen.

"I think that's the best response you can get from them right now," Clary stated a little sadly. "Oh well," Magnus said and interlinked his finger's with Alec, who was glowing brightly. "I think we'll let you two have a moment of your own," Clary said with a wink and Magnus summoned air beds for Clary and Simon in the sitting room. Clary dragged Simon away, telling him sternly that she was winning cards.

Magnus pushed Alec into their bedroom and then onto the bed, the warlock falling fluidly on top of the Shadowhunter. "That was a nice surprise," Magnus murmured against Alec's lips. "Oh yeah?" Alec asked, his voice coming out deep and husky. "Yes," Magnus whispered and closed the distance between him and Alec. 

Alec did not break the kiss this time. He kissed Magnus back fully and completely and when they pulled away for air, Magnus muttered, "Best sleepover I've had over the many centuries." Alec grinned and pulled Magnus down again, capturing Magnus' lips in his own for a kiss that promised many more.
