A/N: So, I might have finally made good on my promise in the summary of this fic...proceed with caution ;)


The dreary day did nothing to dampen Alec's spirits. He was comfortably settling in to a routine at Magnus's, a routine of sleeping soundly snuggled against his boyfriend's warm body, eating an amazing breakfast prepared by an equally amazing man, and then lounging on the over-long couch, gently kissing the man who frequented his dreams. He found he was even growing comfortable with their constant state of semi-dress, their bare chests always on display for the other.

Alec tenderly stroked Magnus's cheek with the pad of his thumb as he kissed him. Their lips met over and over in a smooth, languid kiss. Magnus's hand was seated on Alec's hip, lazily dipping below the waistband of his shorts, making a slow sweeping motion and sending a tingling through Alec's body.

Magnus eventually pulled away, panting for breath. He rested his forehead against Alec's, their breaths mingling, their hearts racing.

"What should we do today?" Alec said, hoping Magnus wouldn't want to go anywhere. He was thoroughly enjoying being half-naked on the couch, kissing Magnus.

Magnus was thoughtful for a moment, then said, "Let's watch a movie."

He rose to his feet, dragging Alec with him, and crossed the room to an exquisite cabinet. He yanked the door open to reveal an impressive collection of movies in various formats. Alec let out a low whistle of appreciation. He ran his fingers along the movie spines, critiquing Magnus's collection.

"Impressive," he said.

Magnus grinned. "When your best friend is a movie buff, you watch a lot of movies."

"I'll bet," Alec said, with a laugh. "So, what should be watch?"

Magnus eyed the movies for a few moments, before reaching out to select one.

"Aladdin?" Alec said incredulously. "Your best friend is a movie buff, you have hundreds of movies to choose from, and you choose 'Aladdin'?"

"Hey!" Magnus said, sounding offended. "Aladdin is a classic!"

Alec snorted. "Classic Disney, sure…"

"Shut up. It's one of my favorites!"

Magnus inserted the movie into his DVD player and followed Alec to the couch. The room was overly bright for watching a movie, though the rainy climate darkened the room somewhat. Alec wasn't complaining though. He was much more interested in curling up on the couch with Magnus than watching the movie anyway.

Alec settled back on the couch, sinking into the plush cushions and stretching out his legs. Magnus's couch was longer than a standard couch, presumable to accommodate his long legs more comfortably. He pulled a throw pillow under his head and dragged a soft, cottony blanket over him, holding it up to allow Magnus room to climb in next to him.

Magnus nestled against Alec's side as Alec lowered the blanket, encapsulating them in warmth. He turned to face Alec, his back to the television. His fingers slowly playing with the hairs on Alec's chest, skimming across the surface of his chest, dancing along his collarbone and shoulder. Magnus brought his eyes up to meet Alec's briefly before leaning in to kiss him.

Alec could hear the movie starting, but it seemed to be from a great distance. His arms encircled Magnus's waist, fingers tracing the ridges and indentions of Magnus's spine. He splayed his warm palm against Magnus's back, pressing their bodies together as they continued their slow, languid kiss.

"How are you supposed to watch the movie like that," Alec said, breathlessly between kisses.

Magnus chuckled. "I already have it memorized," he said dismissively.

And their lips met again. Magnus curled his fingers around Alec's bicep, locking their upper bodies together. Alec made no attempt at protest. He very much wanted his body pressed against his boyfriend's. Alec's hand smoothed down Magnus's back, wandering aimlessly along his ribs and hips and over the swell of his ass. Magnus groaned when Alec cupped his buttocks, gently squeezing.

Magnus was more than a little surprised at Alec's bold display. He had not expected him to make a move like that, not yet anyway. He thought Alec would need more time, more encouragement, to come out of his shell and start making sexual advances. He decided to see how far Alec was willing to take this.

Magnus's hand slid down Alec's muscled arm, slowly, lazily, inciting the most response from his boyfriend's body. His hand slipped off Alec's arm, coasting along his ribcage and over the taut abdominal muscles. He played with the soft hairs on Alec's lower abdomen, turning himself on in the process.

As his hand moved, so did his mouth, becoming increasingly more passionate against Alec's soft lips. His tongue decided to enter the game, sliding across Alec's lips until they willingly parts, allowing him access. His warm, wet tongue slithered inside Alec's mouth, searching, exploring the dark space within. He ran it along Alec's teeth, grazing against his tongue, sending thrills through their bodies.

Magnus's hand continued its southward trek, finding the edge of Alec's waistband, and sliding beneath the shorts. Alec was already stiffening when Magnus's hand found him, cupping him gently, pressing firmly against his growing erection. Alec moaned, involuntarily rocking his hips against Magnus's hand, shamelessly enjoying the feeling of his boyfriend's hand touching him in such an intimate way.

Alec breathed something that sounded like 'Oh, Angel' as he pressed himself repeatedly against Magnus's hand. Magnus pulled away from Alec's lips, enjoying watching his boyfriend come undone. He wondered how long Alec could do this before he…or how long he would do this. Would he finish, right there on Magnus's couch, with nothing but Magnus's hand to assist him, and Magnus's lips kissing him?

Alec tightened his hold on Magnus's ass, unknowingly spreading his cheeks apart, pressing himself against Magnus with more force, more wanton desire. Magnus encouraged him, kissing and licking along his neck and throat, his own arousal throbbing at the sight of this lustful Alec.

And abruptly, unfortunately, Alec seemed to come to his senses, realizing what he was doing. His body stilled. He averted his eyes from Magnus, who kept trying to get him to look at him, not understanding what had brought on the sudden change.

Magnus kissed Alec's cheek and jaw line, willing him to understand that he was perfectly alright with what they were doing. He watched as Alec's blush crept up his chest and throat, burning a hot trail to his face. He was embarrassed, which Magnus thought was completely stupid. He wanted Alec to get off, relished the idea of watching his boyfriend writhe on his couch, bringing himself off against his hand. But Alec was retreating into his shell.

"What's wrong?" Magnus finally said. But Alec simply shook his head.

Magnus glanced around the room, looking for something to calm Alec down and let them continue on the path they had begun. The television caught his eye. Aladdin and Jasmine were climbing onto the magic carpet, and an idea popped into his head.

With an index finger, he gently turned Alec's face, tilting it until their eyes made contact, and he sang the song along with Aladdin, changing the words just slightly.

"I can show you the world
Shining, shimmering, splendid
Tell me, Alec, now when did
You last let your heart decide?"

Alec gaped at him, the words striking a chord inside him. Magnus continued to sing, and Alec dimly noted that Magnus's singing voice was slightly deeper than his speaking voice, and pleasant to listen to. Was there anything the man couldn't do? Alec was starting to wonder.

But at the moment, his mind was occupied by the question Magnus had asked him through the song. When had he let his heart decide something for him?

"Never," Alec said aloud, and the Magnus swallowed the song, confusion flavoring the expression on his face. Alec sat up slightly, and said, "I've never let my heart decide anything. I've always overanalyzed everything, because my father demanded it of me." He searched Magnus's face, wondering if he was making any sense, and coming to a realization. "I don't want to live like that anymore. I want to be free to do what my heart wants. I want to be free to love you, to make love to you. I want you, Magnus."

Magnus smiled and kissed him gently. "I want you, too. But I want you to be sure about this. I don't want you to have any regrets."

"How could I regret this? I've waited twenty-one years for this. I'd like to say I was being noble and waiting for the right person, but really, I was just scared. I won't live scared anymore. I make my own decisions now, and I'm letting my heart decide this one for me."

"Are you sure that's wise?"

"I don't care if it's wise. I want you, and I don't want to wait any longer," Alec said with conviction.

Magnus swooped in and kissed him again, not bothering with the slow languorous kisses from before. This kiss was heated and passionate and messy. Magnus pressed himself against Alec's thigh as he felt his arousal grow. He wanted Alec so badly…but…

He broke away, looking at Alec again, studying his face. There was nothing there that suggested even a hint of uncertainty. In fact, Alec just looked disappointed that his lips were lonely again.

Their lips met again, Alec twining his arms around Magnus's thin frame, holding him in place. He rocked his hips against Magnus, feeling the sweet brush of his thinly clothed flesh against the warmth of Magnus's body. His eyes fluttered shut at the sensation. He had been close to his release earlier, and didn't think it would take much to get him back there again.

A thought suddenly occurred to Alec, and he broke the kiss, looking shyly at Magnus. "I…um…I don't know…how?" he stammered.

Magnus's brows disappeared under his hair as the look of surprise overtook his face. "Didn't your parents teach you about the birds and the bees?" he teased, not entirely sure what Alec was trying to say.

Alec rolled his eyes. "Of course I know the basic mechanics. I just don't know…you and me…how…?"

Magnus studied him a moment before realization finally dawned on him, and he smiled an encouraging smile. "If you are asking if I have a preference, the answer is no. There is very little that I am opposed to sexually. We can do whatever you feel comfortable doing."

Alec heaved a sigh of relief. The choice was his how he wanted to proceed. He ran a hand along Magnus's back, twisting it in his dark, silky hair, and kissed him. He rocked his hips against Magnus again and again, this time allowing himself to enjoy without worry. And this time, it was Magnus who broke the spell.

"I guess I do have one requirement," he said, his lips twitching at the corners. Alec raised an eyebrow in wonder. "Our first time is not going to be on this couch," he added, climbing off Alec and pulling him to his feet.

Magnus's eyes cast downward, honing in on the tented fabric of Alec's loose-fitting shorts. He licked his lips expectantly, wondering how this was going to proceed. He was determined to let Alec do whatever he wanted to do, whatever he felt comfortable doing, but he couldn't deny the number of dirty images chasing each other through his mind at the sight of that bulge.

They hurried up the stairs, Alec leaping onto the bed as soon as they entered Magnus's room. Alec's decision to take this step with Magnus was made, and he saw no reason to delay it any longer. Magnus grinned at his eagerness.

Magnus paused at his bedside table, pulling open the drawer and retrieving the necessary items: a bottle of lube and a condom. The condom may take some of the romance out of it, but he had always been careful when it came to sex, and he wasn't planning to change that now, not until he knew this relationship was permanent.

Magnus crawled onto the bed, slinking toward Alec on his hands and knees, looking distinctly feline, down to the arch of his back, and the purring hum sounding from his throat. Alec licked his lips in anticipation.

When Magnus got close enough, Alec rose to his knees, capturing his lips in a kiss. He ran his hands down Magnus's sides, pausing only to seize the hem of Magnus's shorts and yank them down, exposing Magnus's completely nude body to him for the first time. Alec marveled at the beauty of the honey-skinned man before him, the soft texture of his skin, the finely defined frame, the intoxicating erection that was now free of its confines and brushing against his leg in the most sultry way.

Alec pressed his lips to Magnus's again, gently leaning him backward. Magnus's body responded to the suggestion, bending and situating himself beneath Alec, as Alec lowered his body to cover Magnus's. He propped himself on his elbows to prevent his weight from suffocating Magnus as they continued their kiss. Their erections brushed, and Alec thrilled at the sensation, wondering just how much better it will be when he is finally inside.

Alec felt Magnus touching him, then felt the cool, tight sensation of the condom engulfing him. Magnus applied a generous amount of lube over the condom, stroking Alec in the process. Alec's eyes rolled back in his head, and he sincerely hoped he had the stamina to make this good. He would like it to last more than a few minutes. A flush crept into his face at that thought, and he immediately dismissed it, lowering himself onto Magnus again. Magnus tented his knees, trapping Alec between his legs.

"Go slow," Magnus whispered. "You won't hurt me," he added, correctly interpreting the concern in Alec's eyes. Alec didn't really know what to expect, but he imagined there could be a great deal of pain from Magnus's perspective, if he wasn't careful. Magnus's words helped ease his mind.

Magnus encouraged him with his lips and tongue, distracting him from the fear of what he was about to do. As Alec melted into the kiss, his body wanted Magnus more and more, and any lingering doubts or concerns melted away. He adjusted his position as Magnus rolled his hips, aligning them perfectly. He wrapped his arms around Magnus's body, holding him tightly, and he gently rocked his hips, slowly pushing himself inside.

As Magnus's warmth surrounded him, encompassed him, he found it harder and harder to restrain himself. He had never felt anything like this, even the wonders that Magnus could work with his mouth did not compare to this, and he wanted to feel more. But he found a way to control his urge, for Magnus. He would not hurt him.

Magnus's eyes fluttered shut. He felt like he had been waiting an eternity to be like this with Alec, even though it had only been a few weeks. Their bodies seemed to fit together perfectly, and Alec was taking his time, making the pleasure that much greater and keeping the pain at a minimum. Magnus could feel his own erection throbbing between his and Alec's bodies, could feel the friction of Alec's abdomen as he slowly moved against it.

Magnus's hands wandered down Alec's back as Alec went deeper and deeper inside him. He cupped Alec's ass as Alec finally seated himself, completely surrounded by Magnus, and Alec released a low moan against Magnus's mouth.

Magnus encouraged Alec with the gentle squeeze and release of his hands on Alec's hips, helping Alec set a pace that felt amazing to both of them. Magnus's head fell back, exposing his neck to Alec's greedy lips, though Alec struggled to concentrate on the kisses and licks and nips he was attempting to plant there. He could feel the rapid pulse in Magnus's throat, beating in time with his own. He could feel the rise and fall of Magnus's chest beneath him, as his breaths came out in short pants and he mumbled words of pleasure and reassurance that refused to be contained.

A light sheen of sweat broke out on their bodies, aiding in their movements, their slick skin easily gliding against each other. Magnus wrapped his body around Alec, changing the angle, allowing Alec to move deeper within him and find all of his sensitive spots, sending Magnus reeling into a pool of ecstasy.

Alec's movements became erratic as his pleasure heightened, as he kissed and licked and sucked on Magnus's neck, intermittently burying his face in the crook between Magnus's neck and shoulder as his control slipped further from his grasp. Magnus met his thrusts with equal force, making incomprehensible sounds. Then finally, Magnus arched his body against Alec's, and with a final cry, Alec felt the warm, sticky liquid spurting against his abdomen.

Seeing Magnus come undone was more than Alec could take. He buried his head in Magnus's hair, his open mouth brushing against Magnus's ear, his hot breath tickling Magnus, as he held on tight to the narrow body of this beautiful man and released inside of him. He throbbed and pulsed and gingerly moved, riding his orgasm as far as it would take him.

He didn't want to release his hold on Magnus, not now, not ever. He had shared something with Magnus that he had never shared with anyone, and his heart felt like it might explode with all the emotions welling up inside him. He held Magnus in his arms as their heart rates and breathing slowed to normal, as he regained his ability to kiss the man's neck and jaw and cheek, and finally his lips.

They shared a long, slow, lazy kiss, one that only comes from well-sated, spent lovers. Then, finally, reluctantly, Alec released his tight hold, but he didn't let Magnus move away. Not that Magnus had any intention of doing so. They rolled onto their sides, facing each other, arms loosely draped across the other. Magnus's hand pillowed Alec's cheek, and Alec nuzzled against it, savoring the warmth of the touch.

Magnus searched Alec's face, a slight crinkle appearing between his brows. Alec knew he was worried that he would regret what they had done, but there was no need. Regret was the furthest thing from Alec's mind. He turned his face enough to kiss the palm Magnus had under his cheek, then cast his eyes back to Magnus's, wordlessly showing him how he felt, how happy he was to finally make it over this hurtle in his life, and even more than that, how happy he was that he had done this with Magnus.

Magnus smiled a lazy smile at him, eyelids half closed in peaceful bliss. Alec knew Magnus understood what he was trying to convey. He kissed Magnus once more, another slow, sweet kiss, before closing his eyes and drifting off to sleep.


A/N: 1. The song is, of course, "A Whole New World" from Disney's Aladdin.

2. I honestly have to say I never pictured their first time with Alec on top...like ever. So I wanted to try it and see if it worked. I think it does. I think Alec has a strong enough personality for it to work. I don't think it would have gone this way in the books because he was just coming to terms with his sexuality and letting everyone know about it, but this Alec is a few years older and has had more time to deal with things, and has been out on his own for several years, away from the expectations of his parents. I think that is the difference here. Anyway, hope you enjoyed it! Let me know what you think.
