A/N- Every time I get a new review there's always that one part of my brain that's like "Oh no, someone finally figured out I'm a shitty writer, oh god, I knew this would happen, it's totally a flame, I know it's a flame, I know it, oh I'm gonna cry, this is awful, goodbye Fanfiction" and then it's not a flame ^_^ btw, you guys can't tell cuz Fanfiction won't let you, but this was written in rainbow letters that are dedicated to Magnus and Alec's gayer than a unicorn relationship. Wootle.
Now that the people of Fanfiction decided to be awful, I don't know when I'll get to write that lemon. I haven't seen any stories disappear so far so don't pay any attention to the rumors. Do us all a favor and email Fanfiction in a calm and orderly fashion. The more you know. *do do, do, doooo*
OH AND BY THE FUCKING WAY, IS IT CUM OR COME? I NEVER FUCKING KNOW ARGH AND IS THE PAST TENSE CAME OR COMED OR CUMMED OR FUCKING WHAT.
Disclaimer- Iownnothing.
"Jace!" I exclaimed, running into the bar the next day and skidding to a stop in front of him. I had said a hasty goodbye to Alec on my way out the door that morning after he'd asked me where I'd been on Tuesday, and I left a bit earlier for work, making up some lame excuse I'm sure. "I need your help!"
"No," Jace said without missing a beat. "I will not have a threesome with you and Alec."
"What?"
"What?"
We stared each other down for maybe too long, and then I shook away the strange moment to get to my point. "You know fluent sign language right?"
"Yeah, and…?" He was aimlessly flipping through a magazine I couldn't see the cover of and seemed much more interested in it than what I was saying.
"Will you tell me if I'm doing it right?"
"Magnus, you don't know sign language," he said, bored. "And I'm not going to teach you."
"Jace, fucking listen, I do know it, or a little of it." I shook my head, exasperated. "Look, could you just help me… Please?"
His eyes lazily slid up to mine, releasing their hold on his seemingly interesting magazine. "When did you find the time to learn sign language?" he asked, sounding bored but the smallest bit interesting.
"You're forgetting that the world exists before noon, Jace." His focus was back on his magazine after he heard my half-assed reply and I was close to just backhanding him in order to get his full attention. This was important.
"Well, how much do you know already? Besides the alphabet." Jace's voice was hitting the wood of the bar and the glossy paper of whatever he was reading, but I knew it was directed towards me.
I didn't answer right away, pausing to think for a moment. "Probably enough to have a conversation with someone."
"Show me, then," Jace suggested. "I'll tell you how much you screw up." He looked at me with a raised eyebrow and I sighed.
'I hate you,' I signed with a look of disdain on my face.
'Keep going,' was all he signed back, not bothering to tell me if I messed something up or not.
Having gone over everything I knew I was going to say to him beforehand, I had no problem repeating it all to Jace himself. 'I hate you but I love your brother. I love him more than I have ever loved anyone before.'
Jace's hand flew up in a 'stop right there' kind of way. He shook his head and my heart clenched when I feared I'd done something wrong, like said pants instead of love or something. "I hate you but I pants your brother." The look on Jace's face wasn't telling me that I'd mis-signed something though; it seemed more like he was completely revolted.
"I do not want to know about all that sappy love bullshit," he said, assuring me indirectly that I'd signed everything correctly. "Sign something else."
'What are you reading?' I signed instead. I'd definitely wanted to keep going on about Alec, though I was somewhat proud of myself for knowing what I was asking him. It was a small accomplishment for me.
'Cosmopolitan.' His answer came with a sly grin, one that he always used to suggest something inappropriate.
I squinted at him. 'I don't think I want to know why you are reading that.'
With a shrug, he signed, 'It has good tips for the bedroom.'
'I really hate you.'
"That was actually really good," Jace finally vocalized, sounding oddly surprised. "Where did you learn to sign?"
"There's a bi-weekly class down at the community center, the one on Main Street," I explained. "I go there every Tuesday and Thursday."
"How long have you been going there?"
"Uh." I paused, thinking. "I don't really know; I few months."
"You're doing pretty well… A lot better than I was doing after a few months. And I was taught by a professional…" His voice trailed off and I figured our conversation was over when he spoke again. "So… you're doing all of this… for Alec?"
My eyebrows drew together, slightly confused. "Yeah… who else would I be doing this for?"
He shrugged nonchalantly. "I don't know, I'm just saying that it's… kind of like… sweet, or something." His eyes glued themselves back to his Cosmo, though he continued speaking. "I mean… you're learning an entire language just to be with Alec; no one's really done that before. Not in that way."
"Is this your fucked up way of saying you approve of me as his boyfriend?" I asked, my grin obvious in my voice.
The golden haired Lightwood snapped his gaze back to me, eyes slightly narrowed. "What? No. I was just saying-"
"That I'm a sweet boyfriend," I finished for him.
"That's not what I said. Don't flatter yourself."
"Hiding your feelings will get you nowhere, Jace!" I sang as I walked away from him. "Don't be afraid to show your true colors!"
A few hours later, while I was staring aimlessly at a glass that had a speck on it that suspiciously looked like blood, I decided to text Alec. I didn't really know what to tell him, my whole "Surprise Alec With The Fact That You Know Sign Language" plan I had was only on Phase Two. Phase One was actually learning sign language and Phase Two was figuring out how I was going to surprise him, while Phase Three consisted of me actually surprising him.
So, as a direct result of sheer boredom and questionable mental stability, I texted Alec "Your farts smell good" because I knew he'd answer me anyways. And I'd probably get a good laugh out of it.
?
You have sexy feet.
Magnus, what the fuck.
Sorry darling. I was bored xD
You're lucky I love you.
Yes, I am :) I have a question.
I probably have an answer.
Will you go out with me?
I thought I already was…
I meant that literally. Let's go for a walk and get some coffee or something.
Okay, when do you want to go?
In about an hour. I'll pick you up?
Sure.
Yay :D I'll see you in an hour. Love you.
Love you too.
"Jace," I called, standing up from my slouched position against the bar. "I'm leaving to go make out with your brother, please refrain from burning this place down." I wasn't exactly leaving to go make out with Alec (though I hoped it was in my near future); I was actually just going home to fix my hair/makeup and then think about what I was going to do to surprise Alec. But it was worth it to here Jace's confused and mildly pissed off spluttering as I walked out the door.
A/N- *le sigh* I don't know what's wrong with me you guys. I feel like my writing is off… I don't know why. I think my brain finally gave up on me. Oh well. Sorry this took so long, it's summer, so instead of being a good author person, I'm slacking off, staying up till 6 am then sleeping until two and basically sitting on my ass all day, although I HAVE started running every other morning. Just a mile though.
My fastest time running a mile is 14 minutes. Is that bad? It used to be 17…
