Hello, lovelies! I've been kind of overwhelmed with Malec feels lately (I'm re-reading the series-it's even better the second time around!), so I thought I'd let some of them loose with this stuff. I plan to update this semi-regularly, but I apologize in advance if I am negligent. Anyways, enjoy!
Lots of hugs and kisses and all that!

Alec strode through the door of Magnus's apartment and dumped his bow and quiver on the coffee table, collapsing on the sofa as he did. Magnus didn't appear to be home; the decanter filled with liquor was untouched, and the dusting of glitter that followed Magnus around everywhere was absent. The unfamiliar silence that permeated the apartment was surprisingly relaxing. Alec soon dozed off, exhausted from a day of demon hunting.
Nearly an hour later, he was awoken by a jazzy tune drifting into the loft from the balcony. He groggily plodded over to the beautiful french doors to find Magnus, pouring himself a drink and humming to himself. The warlock had dyed his hair again, this time a soft combination of lilac, sky blue, and daffodil yellow. He was wearing nothing but a silk kimono and bunny slippers. It would have looked silly on anyone else, but somehow, Magnus managed to make it look effortlessly sexy. For once, he wore no makeup, other than a small flick of gold eyeliner. He swished his hips to the music, and Alec was content to lean in the doorway and watch his lover for a moment.
Magnus noticed him. "Well, hello, sleepy!" Still swaying to the music, he sauntered over the Shadowhunter and captured his lips in a kiss. Alec smiled.
"Hey. I thought you weren't home?"
"I came back about a half hour ago. You looked so exhausted; I didn't want to wake you. In fact, you still look exhausted. Have a drink!" A cocktail was shoved into Alec's hand.
"Ah, no thanks. I have somewhere I need to be tomorrow. I'm just gonna go to bed."
Magnus smiled and took Alec's hand, leading him out onto the balcony. "Dance with me, Alexander."
"I don't really dance."
"Too bad." Magnus began to sway back and forth again, forcing Alec to move with him. "Come on! Loosen up. Have some fun."
"Really? What even is this song?" Magnus looked terribly offended at Alec's skepticism.
"You mean you've never heard 'Moondance'?!" Alec shook his head, seeming confused. "'Can I just have one more moondance with you, my love? Can I just make some more romance with you, my love?'" The warlock sang as he began to slow-dance with Alec. Alec laughed and buried his head in the crook of Magnus's neck.
"I feel silly."
Magnus laughed. "That's good! It means you're doing it right."
They danced in that manner for the rest of the night: Alec blushed and laughed and called the whole thing stupid, while Magnus expertly led him in a series of terrible dances. Somehow, before they knew it, the sun was rising.
"Damn! I have to go; Izzy's leaving to hunt a Ravener, and if I'm not there on time she'll go alone!" Alec exclaimed hurriedly, scrambling to grab his gear. Magnus watched him go with an amused smile on his face. It didn't matter that Alec was almost late. It didn't matter that they'd gotten no sleep at all. Moments like these, they were worth it.
