Alec and Magnus go for shopping but they met Jace at the store, Alec runs to hide Magnus. Between CoA and CoG.

-Magnus, we should really go back to your place -Alec's nerves were going to kill him as he walked next to the Warlock

-Stop it Alec, no one is going to see you here, and you really need a new outfit for tomorrow -Magnus just loved shopping, but his little Shadowhunter was to annoying when he got nervous

Magnus was driving Alec crazy, what if anyone saw him? And he didn't quite get why he needed a new outfit if they were only going to spend a few hours together at Magnus'

-Why do I need clothes? mine are fine -he would defend his black clothes to the end

-Fine? They all have holes! -his not-official-boyfriend had serious fashion issues

-They look fine with me -answered Alec playing with the hole of his jeans

-You simply don't have fashion sense! -Magnus was getting irritated as minutes passed, but after half an hour or so he found a really nice pair of skinny black jeans and a blue t-shirt that actually didn't bother Alec

-I can get along with these ones -he really king of liked the jeans

-Fine, change into them, I'm going to look something for me -Magnus had already his eyes on a golden pair of jeans across the store

When Alec got out to show Magnus the outfit he almost trip over with the person next to him as he saw Jace talking to a girl just in front of him about how nice he looked in the t-shirt he was trying on

-Alec! what are you doing here? -asked Jace seeing him with great surprise- I wouldn't believe you liked shopping, you look nice

-I.. uhm ... I was... uhm... you too- Alec was getting as red as Jace t-shirt

-Did you came with Izzy? -Jace said catching a glimpse of certain warlock at the jeans section

-No... I... uhm ... came alone -Alec blushed as he lied awfully

-Really? well see you in a few seconds, going to change, maybe we can go home together, stop at Taki's? -if Alec wanted, Jace was going just to get along

-Yeah sure -as Jace door was closed Alec hurried to find Magnus who was paying four full bags of clothes

-Alexander! you look great! -Magnus was pleasently surprised to see him

-Stop talking, Jace is here, I have to change and I'm going back with him, so uhm see you later -the Shadowhunter was so nervous he didn't realize he was being kind of rude

-Alexander, -Alec turned to saw Magnus, Magnus was about to tell him that he couldn't just leave him but the pressure at that pretty blue eyes was to much for him, he loved the boy even if he wanted to stay at secret, and that was breaking Magnus' heart- buy that outfit, looks cut on you, see you tomorrow at my place

-Thanks, yeah, see you there

As Alec walked to get change with Magnus watching him sad, he felt a touch in his arm

-You see, I know you two are dating, so you better not hurt my brother's heart -Jace with a recent adquired bag was looking him all big brother

-Why don't you just tell him you know? He is breaking mine by the way- Magnus didn't like the golden boy

-Because he is just -a expression of love and care took place at Jace's face as he spoke about his parabatai that Magnus really couldn't blame him for not telling Alexander- shy, just... be patient with him Magnus, I know he loves you -at Magnus face of I'm-so-not-buying-that Jace continued- yeah, I'm pretty sure he does, better get going before he goes out and freaks out for me talking to you, see ya

As Magnus went home he was seriously thinking to like Jace better.
