A/N: Unbeta'd.
I'm depressed and this is the product of my depression. Hope it's worthy enough to read. :(
"This place is awesome, isn't it?" Magnus grinned. "I've been dying to take you here."
"Yeah, it's great." Alec scrutinized the restaurant before turning back at Magnus and smiled. "How did you know about this place?"
"A customer had suggested it." Magnus lifted up his glass of martini to his lips.
Alec followed Magnus' action and drank his own beer. "So, uh…four months, huh? I'm glad you ran into me all those months ago."
"I'm so glad I did too." Magnus took another sip of his martini. "Though I regret your bow was broken because of me, I'm very pleased to get to know you."
"You got me a new bow and took me out to dinner so I guess I couldn't really complained." Alec threw a playful smile at Magnus.
Magnus mused. "Think of me when you shoot your arrows."
Alec laughed out loud, drawing attention to himself and Magnus. "To think that I fell for that horrible pickup line was beyond embarrassing."
"Your pain is my gain, dear." Magnus said teasingly. "And now this wonderful man in front of me is mine. You're stuck with me forever, Alexander…because I'm not planning to let you go, ever."
Alec blushed. "I'm not going anywhere. I guess you're stuck with me too."
"I wanted to rip this shirt off since we were still in the restaurant." Magnus growled, ripping the denim shirt Alec was wearing. Buttons flew all over the place.
"Why didn't you?" Alec rasped, tumbling backward to the bed.
"Oh my…" Magnus smirked. "Alexander, is that a kink I detected? Are you secretly an exhibitionist, darling?"
"What do you think?" Alec seductively wiggled his eyebrows.
"Well, I think…" Magnus trailed off, nipping Alec's neck. "Next time we go on a date, regardless where it is…I'm gonna tear you apart right there and then."
Alec groaned. "Even if we…even if we're in a c-church?"
Magnus frowned but he didn't stop his assault on Alec's neck. "Why would I take you on a date at a church? I'm Atheist, Alexander…certainly not religious at all."
"J-Jace is getting married. I want you to be…to be my…my d-date to the wed-wedding." Alec groaned again as Magnus kissed the hollow of his throat. It was his weak point.
"If that's the case…" Magnus started to move, unceremoniously dry humping his boyfriend. "Count me in."
"I made you breakfast." Alec kissed Magnus' cheek as he got ready for work. "Do not try to cook anything. You gave me heart attack the last time you did that. Seeing firemen in front of your boyfriend's building is truly scary."
Peeking an eye open, Magnus hummed. "I told you they came for me, Alexander. They simply couldn't resist my hotness."
"Right." Alec pulled his leather jacket on. "They better don't come here anymore though or they'll get a bunch of arrows stuck in their chest."
"I love it when you get all possessive of me." Magnus grinned, already wide awake. "Dang, this outfit of yours will be the death of me, Alexander. Do you have to wear the leather jacket?"
Alec halted. "It's a part of my uniform. Other instructors are wearing it too."
Magnus huffed. "You're an archery instructor, not a rockstar. I don't get it why it is mandatory to wear the damn leather jacket. I bet that old geezer like to stare at all of you in this sinful leather just to get off. Your boss is such a pervert."
"Hodge is only ten years older than you and he's not a pervert." Alec said. "Wanna have dinner together tonight? I'll cook."
"I can't." Magnus pouted. "I have new liquor stocks coming in tonight and I can't trust my workers to do the inventory after what had happened before."
"Some other time then." Alec smiled although he looked disappointed.
"You can…come by later?" Magnus suggested, sitting up on the bed. "If that's okay with you?"
Alec kissed Magnus' cheek. "More than okay."
"Really, Magnus? Another fling?" Raphael gritted his teeth. "Do you realize what you're doing?"
"It's harmless, Raphael. It's just a blowjob." Magnus grunted as the man who was kneeling before him took his entire length inside his sinful mouth.
"You're being unfair to Alec." Raphael remarked.
"What Alexander doesn't know, won't hurt him." Magnus panted, breathless.
"You're a jerk." Raphael stared at Magnus in disgust. The slurping sound was so obscene.
"Don't act like a fucking saint, Santiago." Magnus scoffed. "You were no better than me before you met that nerd. Look what had happened to you now. Being all domestic. It's fucking annoying."
"You're a hypocrite." Raphael snarled. "You're being all domestic with the Lightwood boy too. Taking him on dates, buying groceries together…he makes you happy, don't deny it. You can't lie to yourself, Magnus. Alec's not just another one of your playthings. If he was, you wouldn't last this long. You do feel something for him but you're too scared to admit it. He's not her. Don't hurt him like she had hurt you."
Magnus sneered as he pulled out of the unknown man's mouth. His mood was gone and so was his erection. "You know what? I guess you're right. He does make me happy because he's so great in bed, Raph! The best I've ever had. You should see how magnificent he is when we fuck. He's the very definition of a prince on the streets and a freak in the sheets."
"Alec doesn't deserve this." Raphael said.
"Oh, Raphael. We don't deserve a lot of things in this world." Magnus patted Raphael's face. "But a wild stallion like me can never be tamed."
There's so much life I've left to live and this fire is burning still…
When I watch you look at me I think I could find the will…
To stand for every dream and forsake this solid ground…
And give up this fear within of what would happen if they ever knew…
I'm in love with you.
"Do you really have to go?" Magnus whined.
"Unfortunately, yes." Alec replied. "It's just for a couple of weeks, Magnus."
"Two weeks is too long." Magnus whined and pouted. He buried his face in Alec's chest. "I'm going to miss you."
"I'll miss you too." Alec played with Magnus' ruffled hair.
"I won't survive this separation, Alexander. Hodge Starkweather is a monster for tearing us apart." Magnus murmured. "We live in a cruel, cruel world."
Alec chuckled. "I'll be in Washington, Magnus…not the end of the world."
"Washington is the end of the world." Magnus gazed up at Alec with a sad face.
"Come with me then. At least these two weeks will be bearable if we're together." Alec offered, smiling brightly. He took the glass on the side table and gulped down the remaining ginger ale in it.
Magnus touched Alec's lip with his thumb. "You still feeling nauseated?"
"Yeah." Alec said with a grimace. "And now there's this terrible headache too."
Magnus pulled himself up. "Come on."
Alec frowned. "Where to?"
"You need to get that check, Alexander. It had been days and I'm worried about you." Magnus' eyes were full of concern.
Alec cupped Magnus' face. "It's late, Magnus. The clinics are all closed and hospitals are for emergencies only this time of the night. I'll go tomorrow after work, okay? I promise."
"You're awfully quiet." Magnus observed Alec who was sitting tensely beside him. He barely said a word since he arrived. "Darling, whatever it is swirling inside that pretty head of yours, you know you can tell me, right?"
"I'm pregnant." Alec abruptly blurted.
Magnus blinked. "I'm sorry…what?"
"I'm pregnant." Alec repeated, gingerly glancing at Magnus. "The headache, the nausea…they're the symptoms…of pregnancy."
"I…I know that our relationship is still new, and we've been together for only a few months…" Alec added nervously. "But I think we got this, Magnus. We both have secure jobs, and we're also financially stable and…and a child is actually a blessing."
"You need to get rid of it." Magnus' expression held no emotion.
"What?" Alec paled.
"Get rid of it, get an abortion." Magnus said coldly.
"Magnus, let's…let's talk this through." Alec tried to remain calm. "I know this is shocking news and it's totally understandable to be anxious and…and frightened. Let's calm down first and then we can start discussing about this, okay?"
"Let me get this straight, Alexander." Magnus exhaled harshly. "I don't want it. I don't care if we're financially or emotionally ready for this because I simply don't want it. I'm not fond of fatherhood at all."
"We both have sex. We know the consequences." Alec retaliated.
"You're only twenty-three and I'm a decade older than you, don't you think I know that?" Magnus snickered. "What's done is done but the responsibility is not mine to carry and your parents already call me a lothario so why bother."
"Listen to me." Magnus sighed when Alec kept quiet. "You're young so why would you trouble yourself with this burden? Just get the abortion and you'll see that I'm right."
"Stop sulking." Raphael sat on the stairs. "Your dearest Alexander is coming back today."
Magnus narrowed his eyes. "How do you know about that?"
Raphael shrugged. "Simon told me. His friend's son is in Alec's archery class. And you've been moping for two weeks so I kinda put the pieces together."
"Oh." Magnus responded. "So, is um…is it hard to get phone service there?"
"Why do you ask?" Raphael was genuinely interested.
"No reason. Just asking." Magnus muttered quietly.
Raphael smirked. "Alec didn't contact you since he went to Washington, did he? No wonder why you're all moody. I hope he's ready to deal with your pent-up anger when he comes back home."
"Shut up." Magnus checked on his phone for the consecutive time.
"You my friend, is smitten." Raphael commented. "You've been waiting for his calls and texts like a love-sick puppy without you even realizing it. When he's around, he's not enough. When he's not around, you're oddly faithful. You're so weird, man."
"Alexander, are you home?" Magnus knocked on Alec's apartment door. He rarely went there since Alec shared it with his siblings. His loft was far cozier anyway. "Alec Lightwood, are you in there?"
"It has been three weeks, you should be home by now." Magnus kept on knocking.
"You haven't returned my calls and my texts went unanswered and I'm starting to freak out." Magnus laughed humorlessly.
"Alexander?" Magnus called out again.
"Are you looking for the Lightwood siblings?" A woman who had just arrived asked. She obviously lived there since she was holding a couple of groceries bags and struggled with her keys.
"Let me." Magnus offered to hold her groceries which the woman gladly accepted. "Yeah, I'm looking for the Lightwoods. Do you happen to know where they are?"
"They don't live here anymore." The woman said sympathetically. "Jace had been living with his now wife for a few months but Alec and Izzy had just moved out. Big brother Alec got a new job upstate."
A/N: Yes, Magnus is a jerk. The question is...will he remain a jerk or will he change?
