A/N: Hello darlings!
So, I've thought over the idea of a sequel, and I decided that I'll give it a try. I've never been really good in sequels, but I fell in love with the characters that I put in Maybe We Are A Fairytale too much, and I couldn't say goodbye to them yet. Of course, considering that it's my story, it can't be without some drama. So yes, I'm gonna put here drama as well, but I can assure you that it won't be connected with Leukemia. It will be something that I once wrote in another story of mine, that it's published. But I won't reveal from which one, so I could surprise you a bit.
Anyway, let's get to the good things (I hope it's good)
Summary: After Alec's fighting off his illness, there's nothing more that Magnus and Alec wants than live happily ever after. But can they? Can they live happily ever after when the fate has something planned for them? Will they remain together after all?
All characters belongs to Cassandra Clare, except for Michael, he's my OC (remember, he's a new boyfriend of Magnus's mom)
Enjoy reading.
Chapter I
"Home, sweet home"
"Honey? How 'bout this one?"
"Hell no! Magnus we're not painting our, you hear it, OUR bedroom in pink!"
We were standing in the middle of a paint store, trying to decide in which colors will paint our home.
Our home…how wonderfully it sounded. Never in my life I thought that I will have my own place. More, that I will share it with the person I love with my whole heart. But here we are, arguing about the decorations.
"Babe it's not pink it's fuchsia"
"Whatever it's pink"
"You're no fun you know" he crossed his arms on the chest pouting.
"You said something different last night" there must have been at least a small blush on my face, as I was talking about our intimate stuff. Day by day I was becoming more comfortable with those things and talking about them. Being with Magnus made me stronger and more certain about my sexuality. I no longer was afraid to show my emotions, affection towards him, even in public.
"Oh last night you were so fun Alexander" he winked at me, making me slightly blush. "So…can we take this color?"
"No"
"But Aleeeccc…"
"Can I help you gentlemen?" we heard some female voice behind us. As I turned around I approached a young-age woman with blonde hair and scarlet lipstick, wearing green floral dress and a green store-cloth.
"Yes" Magnus spoke "This one here" he pointed at me "says that it's pink"
"Oh sir, this one color is fuchsia" the woman smiled at me "And it's a wonderful color"
"It's pink" I stated
"Come on Alec it's a nice color" Magnus batted his eyelashes at me. He perfectly knew that I can't keep a hold of myself when he's doing it.
I swear this boy will be the death of me
"If I can prompt something" the woman "If you don't want this shade, than I can offer a really nice shade of red" she started to flick through the catalogue and pointed at some reddish color "Amaranth"
"Uuu" Magnus started "I like it. Maybe we could combine it with some other color? Maybe…aquamarine?"
Magnus took two samples of the paints and put them together. They looked really good like that. It was a nice combination of contrasts.
"So Alexander, what do you think?" he asked
"I like it"
"Great!" Magnus grinned at me, and then turned to the lady "We'll take one bucket of each. And three buckets of white" I raised an eyebrow at him "We need to refresh the ceilings as well. Oh! And some of ocean's blue, for the bathroom. Yeah. That will be all here"
"Of course" she said "Shall we move to the counter?"
After we paid her, we took the buckets with paints to my car. The next stop for us today was picking up a bed. Of course in the apartment that we rented, from my dad's friend was a bed. But we didn't want to sleep in someone's else bed. The other furniture stayed, except for the couch in the living room. We brought a violet plush couch from my home, since mom decided to change something in home. And Magnus took a glass coffee table from his old home.
In the furniture store, Magnus was the one who tested beds, since I was starting to get tired. My system was still tiring fast, so I needed to take breaks or rest a few times in a day. I was getting better of course, I was cancer-free for six months already. But still I was meant to watch over myself.
"Sweet cheeks, you ok?" Magnus was crouching in front of me, looking worry in my eyes. He took my hands in his and slowly rubbed them "Baby?"
"I'm fine, just need to catch a breath and sit for a bit. Am…" I looked around the store "Did you pick our bed?"
"Yeah. It's nice, comfy, big, just like we wanted"
"Great. So…are we heading to my place?" we slowly got up and went to the parking lot.
"I'll drop you and then I need to go to "Atelier". I promised to help mom tonight" we drove back in a complete silence, but it wasn't the awkward silence. No, it was more like a nice silence. Magnus held one of his hand on my knee the entire road, like usual. He parked on my drive way and we kissed goodbye "I'll see you tomorrow? I should come around ten or so. I'll call you darling. I love you"
"I love you too. Have fun at work tonight!"
…
I was packing my last suitcase when Max came to my bedroom.
"Hi Alec" he jumped on the bed, next to Church.
"Hi Maxie. What's up?" Church hissed loudly at Max, when he scratched his head a bit too roughly. The next the old cat jumped off the bed and went out of my room.
Max's face was sad, I could easily tell. He looked down at his knees, avoiding my eyes. It made me wonder. Did something happened?
"Max?"
"Do you have to move out?" he asked in a small voice. The sadness in his voice made my heart slump. I threw my shirts on the old wooden chair, and sat next to him on my bed. Soon he snuggled up into my opened arms.
"Listen to me Max" I put my hand under his chin raising it, so he looked me in the eye "I'm adult now, and it's normal that at some point adult kids leave their households. Especially when they want to start a life on their own. Like me and Magnus. We want to build our own home. We want to live together, like a couple"
"But I don't want you to leave home. I want you to stay with us. Can't Magnus move in?"
"It's not that simple kiddo" I explained "You see…with all of us and Magnus it could be…a bit crowded here"
"Please…tell the kid the truth" Isabelle and Jace were standing in the doorway, smirking at us "Listen Max, if Magnus would move in here, he and Alec couldn't do …certain things with all of us in home. Things that people do in the bedroom"
"Jace!" my face must have been as red as tomato right now. "Shut up!"
"Oh it's true…"
"What things? Sleep together?" Max interrupted "Or do that nasty weird stuff in the night? You know like mommy and daddy did the other night?"
We all looked shocked a bit at him. That kid will never cease to surprise me.
"Yeah" Isabelle said "The nasty weird stuff, right Alec?"
"He's nine guys…" I grumbled "So shut up!"
"So you can do this stuff with Magnus when we're not home" Max continued "And you can still live here. I just don't want you to move out"
"Max, look at me" he did as he was told "Just because I move out from home, that doesn't mean that we're stop seeing each other. You can come to my and Magnus's place whenever you want, and I'll visit you as much as I can, ok?" he nodded "Good. So we're ok now?"
"Yeah" he smiled a bit to me, before he kissed my cheek and jumped off the bed "Hey Alec?" he asked when he was by the door next to Izzy and Jace "When I come to your apartment for a night, can I sleep with you then?"
"You'll have to talk with Magnus first" Jace ruffled his hair, as he told
"You can sleep then with me Max"
"Awesome!"
…
Magnus was moving his hips to the beat of Katy Perry's 'E.T', as he was painting the wall in our bedroom. He looked totally hot, with paint splashed on his blue shorts, and my old black A-shirt. His black hair, today hair-products-free were made in a ponytail. He said that he'll short them before we start college.
We'll start the collage in a month. After all I decided to go on NYU to study social work. It's weird, that I decided to do it, when I always wanted to be a lawyer like my dad. But lately I found more satisfying helping people. At first I thought that dad will be mad on me, because I haven't choose the same path as him. But he surprised me, when he agreed with my choose and he supported my decision, as well as mom and Magnus. As for Magnus, he…more I made him go to Julliard School, so he could improve his musical talent. At first he wasn't really keen on this idea. But he has a great talent, and the principal of Julliard was really happy that I made Magnus to fill and application and come to the auditions. He played the same song he wrote for the school version of 'West Side Story' and a song that he wrote when I was in the hospital.
Magnus was now dancing some more and singing as well, some Selena's Gomez song, pretending that the paint brush is his microphone, making me smile at him.
"I…I love you like a love song baby. I…I love you…" when his eyes approached me, he stiffed for a moment, to only smirk a bit later "How long have you been standing here?"
"A while" he skipped closer to me, only to connect our lips in a sweet kiss "Hi"
"So, how do you like it?" he gestured at three painted walls. The one where the window is, is painted in amaranth, the one where the big, really big closet stands, is amaranth as well. The one across the closet is aquamarine. The one left is still in the white color.
"It's really nice Mags"
"I knew that you'll like it" he wiped some drops of sweat from his forehead.
"You should wait for me, I'd help you"
"Ah don't sweat it baby, Jace and Michael came by and helped a bit" he went to the bathroom wash his hands. Once he was back he grinned at me. "Once we'll eat we finish the bedroom, and move to the bathroom, ok?"
"Yeah, then I'll go to made us some food"
"Already done it babe" he dragged me to the kitchen and pushed me on one stool. Magnus turned off the oven and took out a chicken with rice and vegetables. Next he poured me some orange juice and an apple juice for himself. I could only stare at him with admiration "What?"
"Whatever I did to deserve so wonderful man?"
"You're a great laid honey" this made me choke with a rice. Magnus patted strongly my back to help me breathe again "Joking…I mean you are great, amazing actually in bed. But I simply love you"
"That'…that's good to know, um…yeah…"
After the dinner we went back to painting.
"Careful" Magnus pointed at some clothes on the bed, in covers. "There is my tuxedo for mom's wedding. And did you brought your suit? Or do we have to go shopping"
"I have a suit. Just need some new dress shirt"
Ayanna's and Michael's weeding was moved in time, because the groom broke his leg during moving in Bane's household. It's good that the priest is friends with Ayanna for years, so he agreed on changing the date to next week.
"Then we'll go tomorrow"
The painting took two days more and we finally were finished. Now we only have to move furniture. With my dad's, Jace's, Michael's and Ragnor, who was now working with Robert during summer, we managed to do it rather quickly.
"It looks really wonderful honey" Ayanna smiled at us, as she stood in the living room with my mom and Isabelle. "Don't you agree Maryse?"
"Yes, it's amazing boys. I hope that you'll be living here really good"
"We will mom"
"Hey Magnus" Max jumped into his arms "Do you know that Alec agreed for me to sleep with him sometimes when I come for a night here?"
"Oh really?" Magnus looked at me smiling "So then where I will sleep?"
"We can all fit in your bed. It's soooooo big"
"Yeah, we can"
Finally when all of them left us, we moved to the bedroom. Fresh, yellow covers were put on the bed. Magnus changed into his pajama…if you can call that really short lime green shorts. As always he slept without shirt, as well as I did. Finally we laid down, Magnus turned his head to me, tracing his fingers over my chest, giving me goosebumps.
"You know darling…" his voice was a bit tired, but he still managed to sound sexy "We have to bless the new bed properly"
"Not today Maggie…I'm too tired"
"Me too" he whispered. The next thing I know is his lips pressed to mine in a short yet satisfying kiss "Goodnight baby"
"Goodnight love"
We fell asleep for the first time in our home.
Our home, sweet home.
A/N: Did you like it?
For a while I'll be posting some sweet, fluff chapters, just like we love it. Of course the story will be showing them through years, but I will remember to put their age or so, so you could see how long it was since they got together.
As well as I need to tell you, that I won't posting it as I did with MWAAF, I mean I won't be posting regularly twice in a week. No, I'll be posting once in a week, since I don't have my collage classes anymore, and I'm starting a job, ergo, less time to write. In MWAAF I had my boring classes to write the story. So, now remember, only once in a week.
Enough with blab.
