Chapter 2

Selfie

Magnus groaned as the sunlight beamed down directly on his face, disturbing his sleep, which disappointed him, since he was having...fun dreams of him doing certain activities with his blue-eyed boyfriend. Rolling over to try and escape the light, Magnus gasped as he came with a face full of some soft and scented items, as when as something crinkling loudly against his chest. Sitting up, still a little half-asleep, Magnus stared down at the objects resting on a spare pillow. Sitting there, slightly mused now, was a bunch of rainbow coloured roses, the bright blue paper wrapped around bottom of it slightly crinkled from when Magnus had rolled on top of it.

Slowly reaching out, Magnus picked up the bouquet and pulled them close to his chest, sniffing the sweet fragrance of roses. His eyebrows shot up as he properly took in the appearance of the flowers now that he was completely awake. They were all white with splashes of random rainbow colours. Red, blue, orange, green, purple, you name – these roses had it. Magnus recognised them as the expensive roses you could buy that get dye put into the water they sit in, so that it travels up the stem and makes the flowers turn the colour of the water. He remembered pointing them out on a date with Alec when they walked past a florist's shop and these type of flowers were outside for potential buyers to view. At the time, Alec had merely rolled his eyes, but Magnus told himself that he should have known that Alec would have made a mental note – his boyfriend is that sort of person.

Grinning softly, Magnus sniffed the flowers again, before something sharp poked him in the nose. Pulling back quickly, Magnus noticed the small little card hidden between the masses of roses. He went and pulled the card out from where it sat between them, and placed the roses down before smiling as he looked at the card. On the cover was a picture of him and Alec from when they started dating. It had been a selfie that Magnus took of them on their third date when they had finished watching a movie. Magnus could still remember the shock and horror when he cracked a joke about a selfie and Alec has said "A selfie? What's that?". Of course, to make sure his boyfriend had the best mundane education, Magnus showed him how to take a selfie. Alec complained after Magnus took the twentieth, but Magnus quickly shut him up when he planted a surprise kiss on Alec's cheek right when he took the picture. Alec being Alec, blushed bright red as his eyes widened and he went into his awkward 'what-are-you-doing?' facial expression.

Magnus stayed staring with happiness in his eyes at the picture on the front, before finally opening the card – admittedly after taking at least fifty deep breaths, if Alec was there, he probably would of complained at the amount of Carbon Dioxide Magnus was releasing into the atmosphere. Magnus shut his eyes tightly for a few moments, nervous but excitement drumming through his body before he finally opened them and read what Alec had written.

To my Maggie,

I know I told you last night that I would show you how perfect you are – well, I'm not breaking that promise. I also know that you're probably now sitting there, about to have a panic attack at the realisation last night did happen and it wasn't a dream, but just calm down love. And now, you'd be going into your 'I'm-still-so-embarrassed-but-now-I'm-getting-flattered' mode. I know you pretty well, my perfect Maggie. I hope you like the roses and come out to the kitchen when you're ready, I took a day off so we can spend it together. Please come soon, I can only spend so much time without you.

With all my love,

Your Alexander xx

Magnus felt his eyes watering as he read through the letter, laughing softly when he started panicking and kept reading, before calming down and releasing what Alec was saying was true. My Alexander, he thought with a thrill, before his smile fell of his face. This meant...this meant Alec saw him...shirtless. He would have seen Magnus' fat and bellybutton-less stomach. Magnus' hand went to his mouth as I stood up and stumbled to his wardrobe. Oh no, that wasn't meant to happen. If only he hadn't been so fucking stupid and caught up with his image and then waking up to those beautiful flowers from his even more beautiful boyfriend who wanted him to meet him in the-

Magnus suddenly opened his wardrobe doors and stepped in to his large walk-in wardrobe, which was only a few metres smaller than his bedroom. Quickly yanking on ripped dark blue jeans, a sparkly red singlet top and his favourite pair of black heeled boots, Magnus jogged out of his wardrobe. He paused to make sure his hair looked presentable and quickly put a thin line of black eyeliner above his eye, making it point out at the side. Grabbing his jar of glitter, his got a handful and started placing it in him fashionably, but in a rushed manner. Putting the jar down when done, he looked at his appearance in the smaller mirror, since he broke his full-length one in his fit of rage the night before. Deciding it was the best he could do, he ran out of the bedroom, stopping in the doorway to the kitchen to catch his breathe. Boy, am I unfit, Magnus thought to himself as he lost his harsh breathing and straightened his shoulders out, giving his usual confidence look back.

Smiling, Magnus entered the kitchen, looking cool as normal on the outside, while inside, he was screaming to see his beloved man. Alec was sitting at the kitchen table, reading some thick book and munching on a piece of buttered toast. He looked up when Magnus arrived, grinning at the older man.

"Good morning, Mags." Alec said, putting the book aside on the table and putting the half-eaten toast on the plate before standing up. Magnus stared at him, shocked, Alec never put his book down for anyone. "How did you sleep?"

"Ah...fine." Magnus winced on the inside at the slightly confused tone he had, as Alec walked toward him, but seeing his boyfriend so carefree and with so much adoration in his eyes, he was having a little time concentrating.

"Just fine?" Alec sighed, as he reached forward to hug Magnus, before placing a chaste kiss on the warlock's lips. "That's sad."

"I had a better wake up, though." Magnus informed Alec, who ushered him to a seat at the table and gave him a plate of warm chocolate chip pancakes that Magnus loved. Magnus grinned at the sight and allowed Alec to plant another kiss on his lips. "Thank you for the roses, baby, they were beautiful."

"Not as beautiful as you though." Alec said, walking to were the coffee machine was and turning it on. "I couldn't see anything in any of the shops as beautiful as you. Those pretty average flowers had to make do."

Magnus choked slightly on the pancake he had just taken a mouthful of and did a very rare thing – blush. Just like blushing was rare for the warlock, saying such sentimental things out loud was rare for Alec. "Uh-well-um...ok." he stuttered, unsure how to answer.

"So, I thought we could watch a movie." Alec suggested, sitting down on the chair opposite Magnus. "Of your pick, of course."

"Ah, yeah, sure, if you, uh, want to." Magnus murmured, while asking himself what made him get so shy and awkward all of a sudden. "Why don't we go watch one now?"

Alec grinned and nodded as they both stood. "I'll get popcorn and drinks ready while you go choose the movie and get the TV on, cool?" Magnus nodded, walking out of the kitchen, down the hallway and into the lounge-room, before heading straight to where the large black T.V was sitting with bookshelves filled with different DVDs on either side of it. Magnus turned the T.V on, before going and looking at all the DVDs and trying to decide between Pitch Perfect or Pirates of the Caribbean. He knew which one Alec would prefer, but he knew the one he liked more. His thoughts were interrupted when Alec walked in, a bowl of popcorn in one hand and two cans of coke in the other. Alec put the items he was holding on the table in front of the worn and bright red sofa in the middle of the room. "Just go with Pitch Perfect, Mags, I know it's one of your favourites."

"Oh please," Magnus snorted, but he was already opening the cover and taking the disk out of the box and clicking the button on the side of the DVD player to open the little section from where the disk goes. He rolled his golden-green eyes as he put the disk in its compartment and pressed the button again to close the disk holder. "We both know that it's because it has Adam DeVine in it."

"Seriously Maggie, it's only cause Skylar Astin is in it. Get. It. Right." Alec laughed as he jokingly mocked the phrase he had heard Magnus say so many times. Magnus ran and jumped at him, throwing himself at his boyfriend and Alec was quick to catch him as Magnus' legs wrapped around his waist and his arms around his neck. Alec placed his hands on Magnus hips as the two men started laughing louder. "Oh, my silly Maggie."

"My adorkable Allie." Magnus countered, kissing Alec on the lips. Alec stepped backwards and didn't expect something white, small and very fluffy to run behind him, causing him to lose his balance and topple onto the sofa, Magnus with him. "Chairman Meow! You do not trip your daddies over. Bad kitty." Magnus groaned at the pathetic look the white hamster-like cat gave him. "Oh, do not give me that look, mister. You know I can't take. You're just like your other daddy. And you," he smirked at Alec, who was blushing. "Way to give me a heart attack, babe." Magnus continued, breathing heavily.

"Ouch, I landed on my phone." Alec groaned, pulling his mobile out from his back pocket and grinning cheekily at Magnus when his eyes traveled south on his boyfriend's body.

"Would you like a massage? You wouldn't want any numbness or bruising down there, would you?" Magnus said suggestively, his hand running down Alec's chest as the ads on the disk started playing softly in the background.

"Hmm, I'm not so sure, I've heard you can be very dangerous with your hands." Alec joked, before his expression grew serious. "I love you, Magnus Bane." He grabbed the back of Magnus' head with his left and tugged the older man down and planted a firm, open mouthed kiss on his boyfriend's mouth. Magnus' eyes shot open when something small and fluffy jumped over the top of the couch to land on his head and the sound of a camera going off went.

Pulling back from the kiss, Alec grinned and showed him his phone, which was on the camera page and had a picture, slightly out of focus, of him and Alec kissing. Magnus' eyes were wide open as a white blur was jumping onto his head. Alec was clearly smiling into the kiss, his eyes shut and an overall relaxed look on his face. Magnus reached up and pulled the white fur-ball of his head as Chairman meowed angrily in the process. Alec chuckled at the sight before speaking."I love you so much, Maggie, and I wanted to show you that life with you can be really shocking and surprising and so many adjectives that I can't describe it. But I cannot imagine another life without you. Plus, you've taught me so much, like, what a selfay-"

"Selfie." Magnus corrected automatically.

"Selfie." Alec paused to grin at Magnus who was smiling at him. "Is. You've also taught me so many other things, like, how to be myself and more importantly." Alec reached down and grabbed Magnus' hands, linking their fingers together. "You've taught how to love and I'll love you unconditionally, Magnus. Forever and forever. And I know that you think that I don't like the fact that life with you can be so surprising and hectic at times, but it's the fact that it's life with you. I wouldn't want a different life. Plus, we have our cute little baby." Alec smiled softly at the purring cat, which had just manage to lay itself over both their laps. "Even if it is a cat. Plus, I wouldn't trade our family for anything else in the world, because to me, you are my world."

Magnus' eyes started watering, as he moved and kissed Alec softly and lovingly. "I love you so much, Alexander."

"I love you too," Alec told Magnus, pulling back to rest their foreheads against each others. "Now, do you feel that you deserve me more?"

"A little." Magnus admitted.

"Well, 'a little' isn't good enough. I'll have to keep trying." Alec moved away and reached for the remote and pressed play as Pitch Perfect started. "Now, let's watch this movie and compare whether Jesse or Bumper is hotter."

"I think we know who's going to win that one." Magnus giggled, as he clicked his fingers and the lights went down. He and Alec snuggled into each other and for the first time in ages, he felt that someone had finally accepted his surprising lifestyle and nature, and he wouldn't change anything about his Alexander in the world.

So, that's chapter 2. I hope you enjoyed it! Please tell me if you have any ideas of what you want Alec to do to show Magnus he's perfect - I'm willing to accept ideas, just post them in the reviews or message me :) (And also if you're a Jesse or a Bumper fan - I'm curious to see what the results are :D)

Intoxic - Thank you so much, you're so sweet! I always believed that behind Magnus' confident mask, he had plenty of insecurities, but I was so nervous I wasn't portraying them right. Personally, Magnus can be a hard character to portray in fanfics, I really didn't want to screw up his characterisation, but I'm glad you liked how I put his emotions into text :) Alec is planning a few different thing to show him, you'll just have to wait and see ;) Thanks for reviewing!

deviant97 - Did I update soon enough for you? :P You're actually a huge reason I updated so quickly, so I hope you enjoyed the chapter! I'm glad you felt that way, I was so nervous about posting it (which I kind of mentioned above). Thanks for loving it and reviewing! You get lots of love from Allie and Maggie (hehehe, I just love those nicknames - I had to mention that...) Thanks for being so kind as well!

So, that's it folks. I don't when I'll post the next chapter and please review and give me ideas. I have a few already, but I know some of the best imaginations are those of the readers. Thanks, Emily :)
