A/N: This is based on an idea that my friends wanted me to do, so I hope that you enjoy this. I do not own any of this except for the outfit ideas. Chapter One It was just another, similar day at Magnus's loft. I lounged on the couch while my boyfriend did his makeup and hair just for fun. This seemed to be a hobby of his, and I bet that if he could make applying makeup and glitter an Olympic sport, he would do it with much pride.
I wish I could understand his enjoyment of just putting liquids and various powders on his face and feeling confident after coming from the bathroom to show me what he had done. Personally, I didn't think I was that kind of beautiful that he obviously was. I just couldn't see it, what with my nose that looked too big, and my lips that always drooped at the edges without fail. What did Magnus see in my features that he found so perfect? I debated this amongst myself as I messed with one of the holes in my warm, black sweater.
"Alexan-Alec? Can you come in here, please?" I heard Magnus call from the bedroom.
I stood up, and started walking towards our room. He normally wasn't there at this time. He had a carefully put together schedule, and the bedroom was first, to get clothes. He should have been finishing his hair right now, but I guess he had finished early, or wanted to have a messy style for a day of shopping.
Once I had reached the threshold of the room, I stood, looking for Magnus and what he had called me in for.
"Alec, have you seen that bottle of ibuprofen? I have a headache." He had one tanned hand pressed to his forehead as he stared at me, his cat's eyes glittering as they always did.
It seems that he had decided to go with less makeup: only a thick line of eyeliner on both of his eyelids that ended in a thin curl, and lavender eyeshadow with a dab of glitter mixed in. His hair was messy, and he was dressed in a sheer white tank top that had "I don't bite . . . unless you're cute" written on it in hot pink font with grey skinny jeans, purple Doc Marten's, and a belt that hung down from his hips to the middle of his thigh.
"Sure, I think I saw it in the kitchen, I'll go get it, and you can go relax on the couch." I gave him a small, awkward smile that he claimed was too cute to be forgotten.
A grin curled onto his lips, and he gave me a quick kiss on the forehead before I walked out in front of him to get the pills. I only needed to get about one, since Magnus was very strong against most common pain.
I reached the kitchen in about a minute, and before I found the ibuprofen, I picked up a small, orange bottle that was half full with thin, ovally pills. They appeared to be teal, and were addressed to Magnus. I turned the bottle in my scarred hand, and noticed what they were called. I set the bottle down quickly, and turned to look at my boyfriend. He was petting Chairman Meow and watching an episode of a show he claimed was called Supernatural. After taking the ibuprofen, I walked over to Magnus and sat down next to him.
"Here, Magnus," I said as I then opened the bottle and let one small, circular pill drop into my hand. He looked over at me and smiled, then took the pill and popped it into his mouth, swallowing quickly. Inside, my jaw dropped. I had never seen anyone just swallow a pill without at least a drink of water before. He was fearless, and I adored it. Even though I was a Shadowhunter, I did fear spiders, which Magnus knew fully.
He simply smiled and gave me a small kiss on the lips as he stood up.
"Alec, we're going to go to the Institute to pick up something that Isabelle said you need to get, since they plan to clean out your room."
"So, they're going to rent out my room without my permission?" I gave a light chuckle. Magnus shrugged.
"Pretty much, Alec." He ran one long, thin finger along the side of my neck, and we both smiled at each other.
Chairman Meow walked over to my leg, and laid down, curling up on Magnus's right leg and my left. Magnus chuckled, and he petted the small cat's head gently.
"I think the Chairman is starting to like you," he said in a hushed tone as he rubbed behind the cat's ear.
A/N: I hope that you guys enjoyed it! I sure did. And I'm sorry if this was a bit less plot-y. I will be continuing this soon, so I will hopefully get out the next chapter that will have more plot.
