START!


It had taken a few days for Lena to warm up to living in Magnus's house, though her favorite part was chairman meow, the girl simply adored animals. A few times on occasion Lena tried cleaning and Magnus let her, thinking that the house should be clean so Lena could live comfortably, Magnus even helped her out sometimes. (shocker!) Alec even came around more often to visit Magnus and check up on Lena. It was like a little family, or that's what Lena called it.

"No" Alec frowned looking at Magnus

"But why? Lena needs more clothes and won't you be concerned as to what she's walking around in?" Magnus tried reasoning with the shadowhunter about going shopping for Lena and trying to drag Alec along.

"what has she been wearing so far?" Alec questioned then looked at Lena who was sitting on the pink couch petting chairman meow "Her clothes look fine"

"She's been wearing Isabelle's old clothes, they're old, I want Lena to wear something suitable" Magnus huffed crossing his arms over his chest.

"Can't you take her by yourself?" Alec said letting his head fall back

"No, we'll get lonely." Magnus looked at Lena "Don't you want Alec to come?" Lena nodded vigorously and looked at Alec then back at Magnus. The warlock gave her a look that told her to make Alec go so she returned him a look in agreement then walked over to Alec kneeling in front of him.

"Pleeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaase?" She said sweetly dragging out the word and giving Alec the best puppy-dog look she could muster up. Alec sat there with his arms crossed but looking at Lena about ready to crack.

And crack is what he did.

"Fine!" He said in defeat, pinching the bridge of his nose.

"yes!" Lena and Magnus both exclaimed dragging Alec out the door. These two are just two peas in a pod. Alec thought to himself.

"Now that wasn't so bad now was it?" Magnus asked Alec while he unlocked the door to the loft.

"Yeah actually it was, you went insane trying to find out the perfect clothes for Lena. Really? What's wrong with jeans and a t-shirt?" Alec complained walking in after Magnus. Lena followed the bickering couple with a frown on her face as she set the bags down. Alec turned to look at Lena and noticed her expression.

"what's wrong?" He questioned walking over to the small brunette, kneeling in front of her.

"If you two are going to fight about it, I'm not worth it." Lena said frowning at the ground Alec made a sympathetic sound and lifted Lena off the ground resting her on his hip.

"We're not fighting we're just having a..." Alec trailed off trying to find the right word then looked at Magnus for help.

"A creative discussion" Magnus finished walking up to Alec and Lena, smiling as he put and arm around the shadowhunter's waist.

"We love each other." Alec said leaning up to place a chaste kiss on Magnus's lips. "see? I would never really fight with him"

"We're too good for that" Magnus smiled pulling Alec closer

"and plus you are worth it." Alec said softly looking at Lena.

"cause we love you too." Magnus finished reaching up to rub the girl's back comfortingly

"but not the same way you love Alec" Lena said looking at Magnus

"No, the way I love Alec is completely different" He smiled then his face turned mock serious "and you should not love anyone like that for a very long time"

"I won't" Lena laughed and hugged Alec around his neck, then wiggled out of his grasp and was let back down on the floor.

"Good now go get all this stuff and put it away in your room" Alec said pushing Lena towards her room. He sighed sadly and looked back at Magnus "I'm getting attached"

"Getting?" Magnus said walking to the living room and plopping down on the couch. "We've all gotten attached to each other"

"Yeah I guess so. Though I can't believe it's only been a week." Alec sighed sitting down next to Magnus. Said warlock wrapped his arm around the shadowhunter and pulled him close. Alec cuddled up next to Magnus and rested his head on the warlock's shoulder.

"I've noticed you have spiked your hair up recently" Alec said running his fingers through Magnus's loose hair.

"Yeah Lena told me that a certain nephilim liked my hair better down" Magnus smiled looking at Alec.

"hmm wonder who could have said that" Alec said leaning over to capture Magnus's lips. The warlock kissed back and even deepened the kiss to a point where his tongue was sliding against Alec's. The shadowhunter let out a soft moan and moved on the couch so her was straddling Magnus. Said Warlock ran his hand up Alec's shirt earning another yet louder moan.

"Kid in the room!" Lena yelled before entering. Alec jumped off Magnus and fixed his hair.

"Hi Lena" Alec said nervously, moving on the couch to make room for the girl.

"Hiiiiiiii" she grinned knowingly at the two when Alec looked at her she raised her eyebrows and smirked.

"What kid of six year old are you?" Alec asked putting his head in his hands

"A cool one" She answered simply and watched whatever was on the TV at that moment in time. Alec lifted his head and looked at Magnus.

"What have you been teaching her?" Alec glowered at Magnus

"I am completely innocent" He said raising both hands and tried looking as innocent as possible.

"Liar" was the response

"You two need to get a room, and you might want to work on making mine or your room a little more soundproof" Lena interrupted looking at Magnus.

"Maybe I should get you an IPod" The warlock returned

"Maybe" Lena smirked.

"How do you even know what an IPod is?" Alec said also looking at Lena

"You learn a lot from TV" The brunette said with a shrug looking back at the Television. Alec looked from Lena to the TV then to Magnus and glared at him again.

"What did you teach her?" He growled.

"Well..." Magnus said looking away

"What I want to know is why people call it 'the birds and the bees' it has nothing to do with either" Lena said still looking at the TV with a straight look on her face.

"You taught her what!" Alec exclaimed looking at Magnus with a shocked look

"She asked!" Magnus retorted

"I did actually, I was just curious. No need to get angry" Lena said standing up "I'm going to bed, I'll leave you both to return to your business" before Lena left she turned to look at Alec again "and please don't stay mad at him for long?" She gave him a carefree smile and skipped back to her room. Alec let out an audible sigh and leaned on the warlock.

"I can't believe this" Alec whined a little but smiled when he felt an arm slither around his waist

"Maybe we should go to bed to" Came the velvety voice in his ear. Alec blushed up to his ears and nodded in agreement.

Magnus made a groaning sound when he felt someone pull on his arm. He chose to ignore it and turn around so he could sleep, but when the pulling continued he cracked his eyes open and turned to see Lena standing there with wet cheeks and water in her eyes. The warlock immediately woke up and propped himself up on his elbow.

"what's the matter" He asked pushing some sweaty hair behind Lena's ear.

"I had a nightmare" Lena squeaked, sniffling a bit. Magnus nodded and stood up from his bed, thankful that both he and Alec were fully dressed in pajamas. Lena gave him a questioning look but followed when he left the room and walked towards the kitchen. The young girl watched as the warlock heated up some milk and added chocolate to the drink.

"There. It's warm and I don't care how many time people say sugar gives you nightmares that stuff works" He said groggily indicating to the hot chocolate he had just placed on the counter. The brunette sat in a stool and stared at the drink in front of her. After Magnus though about it for a moment he decided to make himself some. Lena slowly lifted the drink and brought it to her lips. She stared at the cup marveling at how good it tasted and started gulping it down not caring about the chocolate moustache that was going to be left behind. When she finished her drink her set the cup down and let out a breath, wiping her top lip with the back of her hand.

"You all finished?" Magnus asked as he reached for her cup. Leno nodded and watched Magnus as he set the cups in his sink. The warlock walked over to the girl and lifted her of the stool and walked them both back to his room. Magnus was still half asleep but was a little surprised when he saw Alec sitting up and staring at him.

"Where'd you go?" Alec asked silently

"Lena had a nightmare so I took her to the kitchen to give her something to drink to make her feel better." Magnus explained tiredly

"Well she can spend the rest of the night in here" Alec said pulling back the covers

"Was already planning on it" Magnus said placing Lena on the bed. The six-year old crawled up next to Alec and laid down next to him curling up at his side. Magnus was on the other side of Alec pulling him towards himself, putting the two in a spooning position with Lena facing towards Alec, Her face nuzzled into his chest.

Alec cracked his eyes open to the invading sunlight that was peaking through the curtains. The shadowhunter groaned and tried turning over when he realized that Lena was curled up to his chest. oh right, she had a nightmare he thought to himself. Lena rolled over, but rolled over a little two far as she fell off the bed. Alec leapt off the bed and quickly crouched down to lift Lena off the ground who was now awake and slightly crying because she had hit her head on the ground. Magnus burst through the door with a spatula in hand.

"I heard a thud what happened?" He said all in one breath. Then looked at the whimpering child on Alec's lap.

"She fell off the bed" Alec explained

"aw, poor Lena" Magnus said in sympathy as he walked towards the bed. Magnus sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Lena "I made pancakes" Lena quickly let go of her head and jerked up to look at Magnus.

"really?" she exclaimed, Magnus nodded and she took off for the kitchen

"You sound like you could be her dad?" Alec commented

"And you act like you could be her mom" Magnus smiled back. Alec started thinking about what would happen with Lena. Would they give her up to someone else for them to adopt? Or would they adopt her themselves? Alec really liked the second idea better. He couldn't just send her off to some stranger, he would never be able to go through with that.

"Alec darling?" Magnus was waving his spatula in front of Alec's face to get his attention.

"what? yeah?" Alec said snapping back to reality

"I said if you don't get out in the kitchen Lena will eat your pancakes too" Magnus said smiling but then turned serious and concerned "Is something wrong?"

"Nothing for now, we'll talk about it later" Alec got off the bed, left the room, and walked in the kitchen to see Lena stuffing her face with pancakes. He smiled to himself at the little girl sitting before him.
