My first fanfiction, so please enjoy! I would love suggestions on how to critique my writing, but no flames please. Reviews are highly appreciated!
Magnus froze. Alec, who had been sound asleep, was now murmuring in his sleep. Magnus was trying to make out what he said, but couldn't. Alec sounded restless, and it sounded like he was having a bad dream. Magnus moved to wrap his arms around Alec and tried to wake him up, when Alec suddenly turned over and slapped him.
"What the heck was that for?" Magnus yelled.
"What are you yelling for?" Alec murmured back sleepily.
"You just slapped me!" Magnus's voice filled the loft they shared.
"I what?" said Alec, growing more awake by the minute.
"You heard me.", Magnus growled.
"No, I in fact, didn't hear you," Alec muttered sarcastically, still half asleep.
"I said you SLAPPED ME when I was trying to wake you up from your dream!" Magnus said his voice breaking. Magnus was being very hormonal. Then he did something that surprised Alec. He started to cry.
Alec, now awake, realized that it had been a bad idea to use sarcasm then. He suddenly wrapped Magnus in a hug. Magnus resisted for a minute, which brought more tears to the old warlock's eyes, and then he gave in. Magnus was now softly crying into the shadowhunter's shoulder.
Alec gently whispered, "I'm sorry."
Alec, whose heart was now racing, suddenly Moved Magnus's head to face him and the he kissed him. Magnus resisted. Alec again whispered against Magnus's lips, "I'm sorry, will you forgive me?"
Alec had started to try to kiss him again, but the warlock refused his advances.
"Magnus, my love, please forgive me. You are the sun to my earth, the light in my stars. I have and will always love you. I can't say enough about how I feel about you. Please, please, PLEASE forgive me!" Alec pleaded, and then his voice also cracked. He was on the verge of tears.
Magnus answered by pulling Alec closer. For a minute Magnus stared into Alec's gorgeous blue eyes. Meanwhile Alec stared into Magnus's green cat-like eyes. Finally, the warlock leaned in and kissed Alec. Alec passionately returned the kiss and felt relieved. Magnus had forgiven him!
"You silly warlock," Alec murmured. "I'll always love you, forever. That's a promise."
"Swear?" Magnus whispered into Alec's shoulder.
"I swear by the Angel." Alec said, moving Magnus's head so he could stroke his lover's cheek.
Magnus, who was now very happy, pressed his cheek into Alec's palm, much like a cat would do. After a bit of this, Alec and he changed positions. Now Magnus was holding Alec. Alec snuggled in to the man. He knew he loved him, which had been a fact, a fact that gave him hope, for the past few months.
"I love you." Alec whispered to Magnus.
"I love you too." Magnus said with such conviction that Alec pulled him in for a kiss.
Magnus knew Alec had to go shadowhunting tomorrow, even though the thought depressed him. So like the "good" boyfriend he was, he insisted that Alec sleep. Alec finally gave in, knowing that in the morning he would wake up in the arms of the man he loved. Magnus, Alec knew, was the one and only man he will ever love.
He and Magnus fell asleep in each other's comforting arms. Alec was very content by the fact that he knew that Magnus knew he had meant what he said. Magnus, though he didn't tell Alec then, felt the same way about him. Magnus didn't have to tell Alec though; Alec was told by that kiss.
