Hey world! I didn't plan on writing this but I had the idea last night and the plot bunnies wouldn't let me sleep. Enjoy and please review!
Magnus paced around the bedroom floor, irritated and slightly embarrassed. Why did the demon have to mention Magnus's father when Alec was in the room? He had many good reasons for never bringing up his biological father, the most important being his boyfriend's safety.
He heard a pattern of soft knocks on the door followed y Alec's voice. "Magnus, can I come in?"
Magnus walked over to the door and pulled it open, the handle cold to the touch. Alec slipped in as soon as the gap was wide enough for him to fit through.
"I swear we're hardly ever alone these days! Always a Shadowhunter popping up, desperate for assistance," Magnus joked as he welcomed Alec in a tight embrace. He placed a light kiss on his forehead before pushing the long black hair out of Alec's face.
Untangling himself from the embrace, Alec sat down on the edge of the bed and patted the space next to him, inviting Magnus to sit too.
"You wouldn't lie to me, would you?" Magnus was surprised by the shadowhunter's question but part of him understood where this was leading to.
"Alec, I've told you a million times before: I will never lie to you no matter how harsh or horrible the truth may be," The corners of Alec's mouth turned up into a smile hearing this.
"Well can I ask you a personal question about something that we've never spoken of before?"
Magnus hesitated before answering. "Okay," He hoped Alec didn't hear the way his voice faltered slightly.
Alec decided to be blunt. "Who is your real father?"
There was a silence for several seconds before either of them spoke again. "What do you already know about my father?"
"The demon said he was a Prince of Hell so I'm guessing that he is really dangerous,"
"Yes, he is deadly and has done things that I will never forgive him for,"
Alec put his arm around Magnus's shoulder. "What did he do to you? You can tell me anything, you know that," Alec was becoming increasingly worried about Magnus's safety and he was feeling a bit of regret for asking about his father in the first place.
"It wasn't me he hurt, but someone I loved and still do to this day. Alec, do you remember that time when you were attacked by a greater demon? When you laid in the Institute, dying? When people began to question your chances of survival? I hate to say it, but that was my father and he nearly killed you,"
Alec could see the tears begin to form in Magnus's eyes. He moved his arm so it was circling his waist and kissed him on the lips. "Is that why you never talk about him? I love you Magnus and nothing, not even your father, is going to change that. Also, if I remember correctly, you saved my life after that attack. You healed me, Magnus," He kissed the warlock again and felt his lips curve into a smile.
Magnus pulled away first and reached out to hold Alec in his arms. "Thank you," he whispered in Alec's ear.
"For what?" Alec asked, his face adorably confused.
"For not hating me and staying even after what I just told you,"
"I'm never going to leave you, Magnus. I love you," Alec adjusted his position so he was straddling his boyfriend and pushed him backwards onto their bed. Alec crashed his lips onto Magnus's and was met by an equal amount of desire. They shut the world outside because all they cared about was each other in those precious moments.
How was it? Please review and let me know :)
