When I woke up, the living room was dark. The only light here was the moonlight, shining in from the window. The next thing I noticed was an arm draped around my waist and my back against another person, the skin cool against my sweaty skin. I wasn't wearing anything but a blanket. I turned around to see Magnus, sleeping behind me on the couch, snoring almost soundlessly. My face blushed as red as a tomato. As I had turned, the first shot of pain came through my head, and I realized I had a bad headache. The next thing I noticed was that he was naked, too. I didn't know what I expected, but I was surprised nonetheless. I sat up, some of the blanket getting pulled off Magnus' legs and his arm falling down on the cushion. I put my face in my hands and rubbed my eyes.

"Oh God," I whispered, opening my eyes and looking around to find my clothes scattered around the living room floor. I sighed, too embarrassed to just lay back and not worry, but too tired to get up. Besides, I'd been comfortable next to Magnus. I figured I better go sleep in my bedroom and leave Magnus on the couch, and went to get up, but I felt a hand around my wrist and glanced back at Magnus.

"Come on, don't go. I was so comfortable," he said quietly, pulling a bit on my wrist. His voice still sounded way too tired for him to have been awake for very long. I smiled a bit. His eyes was half-closed, his hair messy. His make-up was smeared, but he didn't care. A small smile was playing at the corner of his lips and he was looking at me. I looked towards the guest room where Jem would be sleeping, worrying about him waking up and see us wrapped in each other's arms on the couch.

"I shouldn't stay. Besides, I've got my pillows and the duvet and everything in my bedroom," I said quietly, and yawned in the middle of the sentence. He smirked, and I already knew what he was thinking.

"Well, let's go to the bedroom, then."

He sat up and pushed the blanket off us, letting it fall to the floor. I blushed badly at being exposed in front of him, but didn't say anything. He leaned in to kiss me, and I let him, but I pulled away quickly. He smiled and took my hand.

"Come on, then."

He got up and pulled me up. I couldn't help but let my eyes wander down his body, but quickly looked back to his face to see him grinning at me. "Shut up," I said, and started to walk toward the bedroom. I pushed open the door and let go of his hand to get into bed. I felt Magnus lying down next to me, and turned towards him to let my head rest on his chest. Magnus put his arm around me, and I quickly drifted off back to sleep.

"Geez, I knew you were drunk, but I didn't think that's what you'd be doing."

Jem had walked into Alec's bedroom just a few hours later he and Magnus had gone in there. He'd gone to wake Alec up, and had been surprised to see Magnus there – obviously he hadn't expected him to be there. He'd let them sleep for a while, but had then gone to wake up Alec. Magnus was still sleeping in the bedroom. Alec glared at him while filling up a glass with water and finding two pills to make his head ache a bit less.

"Shut up."

"Someone's got a hangover."

"Someone's too cheery for his own good."

Jem laughed and took another sip of his coffee. He had been up for a while – he'd gone to bed very early. Alec swallowed the pills along with some of his water, and then sitting down on the opposite side on the kitchen table.

"Can we just not talk about this?"

Jem was about to answer when there was a noise from the bedroom. They heard the door opening and Magnus coming out to get his clothes – inconveniently in the living room – and he came into the kitchen. He looked at Alec and did one of those lopsided smirks Alec loved. It made his heart skip a beat. Then Magnus looked at Jem and raised an eyebrow questioningly. Alec supposed he hadn't told him he was there.

"Magnus, this is Jem, Jem, this is Magnus."

They just gave each other an approving nod before Magnus looked back to Alec. "I'm just going to grab some coffee real quick, I'm late for work." Alec nodded and went to poor him a cup of coffee from the pot Jem had already made. He handed him the cup, and Magnus downed it quickly. He looked at Alec as he went to put the cup in the sink.

"I've got to go, but I'll be back later, yeah?" he said and stepped close to Alec, standing not much more than a few inches from him. He leaned in to kiss him quickly, and Alec smiled when he pulled back.

"Yeah. When's that catwalk thing, by the way?"

Magnus smiled a bit, almost sadly, but he quickly covered it with a smirk. "It was yesterday. Don't worry about it, though. There's always the next."

Alec bit his lip and looked away for a minute before looking back. "I'm sorry, I forgot, Scott came over with some things yesterday, and I…"

"Alec, don't worry about it. I'll tell you about the next one."

"Are you sure, Magnus?"

"I'm sure. But I really have to go. I'll see you later, we'll talk about it then, okay?"

Alec nodded slowly and leaned in to kiss Magnus again. It was over way too quickly, but Magnus was in a hurry. He nodded at Jem again and left the apartment. Alec looked at Jem, who was smiling teasingly at him.

"Shut up, James."

AN:

Hey guys! Update! It's amazingly fast, isn't it? Well, I love you guys. And you're really reviewing more than you used to. Thanks. Love ya.

Not a lot happened in this chapter, but it was really just.. somewhat the aftermath of the night before. So yeah. Hope you don't hate it.

Also, the fast updates are pretty much all thanks to Darkys. I'm not saying you guys are not important all of you are important to me, but omg, have you read the reviews. *cries with joy* So, here's a little message for her;

Darkys: Hey girl. I love ya too, I mentioned that, right? Anyway, to answer your question.. I did actually want to call a guy once when I was drunk, but I was on Cuba, so it didn't happen, haha. I desperately tried to get internet connection though, so I could message him on facebook.. but the hotel was being bithces and didn't have internet open at 1 am... pffft..
And I'm actually pretty sure my brother thinks I have mental issues too, so you're not alone.. I'm just glad you - and everyone else - actually like what I write. I've been really self conscious about my writing, but since I started putting it online, I haven't gotten a single negative review, and it really gives a confidence boost. I LOVE ALL O' YA GUYS. Also, you should make a user on here... That way we wouldn't have to talk like this, heh.

But just guys, I love you all, every last one of you, and I talked to one of you last week who was going through some really terrible things (don't worry, I won't tell everyone what it is or who you are). And I just wanted you guys to know... Guys, if you ever want to talk to someone who doesn't know who you are, or someone who doesn't know what you've been through in life, you don't have to face everyday, anything. I'm here for you. Just message me. And even if you just want to talk about something random that doesn't have any kind of relevence to anything - MESSAGE ME. I'M HERE FOR YOU. EVERY LAST ONE OF YOU.

But anyways, guys, I hope you liked the chapter. Review and tell me what you think! (and holy shit, this AN got long, I'm sorry)
