I am overwhelmed by the love for this fanfic.

I am even more overwhelmed by the love for Almondo. I'm sure Magnus would hate you all. :p

UamI here is your morning after chapter.

Enjoy.

Magnus slowly opens his eyes and groans at the sunshine hitting him in the face. He closes his eyes and turns over, away from the window.

He opens his eyes again, when he realizes that Alec isn't in the bed. He sits up and looks around the bedroom. He's alone but he vaguely remembers Alec telling him that he's home the rest of the week.

Their tenth anniversary and all.

Magnus smells coffee and looks towards the door. Alec is walking into the bedroom with a smile and a mug in his hand, "Good morning, Magnus. How are you feeling?"

Magnus takes the mug and enjoys two sips before answering, "Like I got hit by a mack truck."

Alec laughs, "A mack truck packed with wine." He kisses Magnus, "Happy anniversary."

Magnus smiles and holds Alec's shirt, "Happy anniversary." He kisses Alec, "You said that you would be here, when I woke up."

Alec sits next to him, "I figured you would want coffee."

"Yes, but I want you more."

Alec kisses him, "I'm here now. What prompted you to drink all that wine last night?"

Magnus sips his coffee, "You."

Alec raises an eyebrow, "Me? And how did I do that?"

"By working late AGAIN."

Alec leans against the pillows, "Yeah, sorry about that. I wanted to get all caught up so that I would be able to take the rest of the week off. I wanted it to be a surprise. If I had known you were going to get drunk and attempt to burn our marriage license, I would have told you."

"I was not drunk."

Alec laughs, "Magnus, why else did you think our marriage license was a receipt and that I was going to return you as if you were a pair of shoes that didn't fit."

"You think I'm a pair of shoes?"

Alec rolls his eyes, "Missing the point, Magnus. Besides, if anybody was getting 'returned' to the Clave, it would be me, since I'm, after all, a ShadowHunter."

Magnus smiles and leans over to kiss him, "Oh no, Alexander, you were 'all sales final'."

Alec laughs, "You're insane and possessive."

Magnus smiles and rests his head on Alec's shoulder, "That's why I stick with martinis, wine messes me up."

Alec laughs, "Messes you up? Oh is that the new term for 'drunk'?"

Magnus sniffs, "Whatever." He finishes his coffee, "What time's our reservation?"

Alec laughs, "Changing the subject? Six, Paris time."

"So I have time for a shower?"

"Of course. But we should check in to the hotel first."

"I need to pack."

Alec smiles, "You're a warlock, I doubt that will take too much time."

Magnus nods, "True. When do we come back?"

"We have the room until Sunday night."

"Hmm, so other than dinner, what else do you have planned?"

Alec smiles and kisses him, "That's it. You, me, a room in Paris."

Magnus purrs, "You're all mine."

"Possessive even without wine."

"Whatever, you want to join me in the shower?"

Alec laughs, "Then we definitely will miss our reservation." He kisses Magnus and gets off the bed.

Magnus pouts, "Fine." He sighs as he watches Alec walk out the bedroom. Today he showers alone but Alec is all his until Monday. Magnus smiles as he gets out the bed and walks into the bathroom.
