Arkytior03 Thanks and i promise i will have Magnus have a serious talk with Mr. Schue, old man to older man, in one of these chapters! Shirsim I know I wish it was longer too, but school started last week so I've been all over the place shopping against my will cuz I hate shopping as much as Alec does. And Alec checked the house while Magnus was spaced out, lol, sorry forgot to add that part! VampireSa5m1993, I'm glad you gave it a chance.
So sorry that this is so late, school started a week ago and it is brutal, its not even the third week and I already have 3 papers due! I hope this isn't too disappointing, I feel like this was just something I had to kinda get out of the way.
The next morning Magnus woke up to a girlish yelp. He opened his eyes just to see Jace standing in the doorway to their bedroom covering his eyes and Alec blushing with an annoyed, confused look on his face, "We weren't doing anything!" Alec said exasperatedly.
"Actually we were doing something, sleeping, until you rudely interrupted," Magnus said pointedly, voice groggy from having just woke up.
"Well, excuse me for not expecting you to be sleeping in the nude!" Jace replied, peeking through his fingers at them.
Alec looked at his parabatai as if he had lost his mind, "We're not naked!" He protested.
"Might as well be, I've seen more of him," Jace pointed to Magnus, "than I ever wanted to," He muttered.
"Well, then, maybe you shouldn't bust into our room without knocking, because next time I'll make sure you see much more," Magnus said, annoyed and amused.
Alec half-heartedly hit Magnus on the arm, rolling his eyes as he said, "You, be quiet, and you," He turned to Jace, "Get out!"
Fifteen minutes later, Alec walked out of the bedroom dressed, showered, and ready for the day, to find Jace rolling on the floor laughing his ass off. Alec cleared his throat making Jace jump up, "Alec, hey, you have to see this!"
"What?" he sighed, knowing that even if he said he wasn't interested, Jace would just show him anyways. He held up his phone and Alec watched as it started to play a video.
The camera was shaky and you could hear giggle from behind it.
"Ahhh, Izzy, demon!" Max yelled, running into the kitchen with a seraph blade.
"What! Where?" She yelped, knocking the pan off the stove.
Max yelled and charged forward and started violently attacking the pile of... whatever that was, "Die, demon scum! Eck, this is the worst smelling demon I've ever killed. Why won't you die!" Max was now on the floor, having knocked over the... black substance, and was stabbing it relentlessly.
Izzy was standing off to the side with a shocked look on her face, that quickly turned to an unimpressed one, "MAX! THOSE WERE PANCAKES! CONGRATULATIONS, YOU KILLED BREAKFAST!," She yelled, waving her arms around, "HAVE FUN CLEANING THIS UP!" She stormed out of the room.
The giggles then turned to outright laughter and Max said, "Did you get it?"
"Yep!" Clary responded.
"In my defense, breakfast was already dead," Max said and then the video cut to black.
"Wha-what did I just watch?" Alec asked, confused and amused.
"Izzy tried to cook," Jace said, that was an explanation for almost any situation someone would witness, and no one ever asked any questions about it because with Izzy in the kitchen, anything could happen.
Alec took in a breath like he was about to speak, but then decided against it and walked towards the kitchen, "Want coffee?" He asked Jace.
"Nah, I'm good," He said, still afraid of the black liquid after what it did to his sister.
Alec nodded, made two cups of coffee, and walked back into the master bedroom, telling Jace that they would leave in twenty minutes.
Forty-five minutes later, the three stepped through a portal into an empty bathroom. Magnus and Alec stepped through effortlessly but Jace fell flat on the floor, "Karma," Magnus said, stepping over him. Alec laughed, following Magnus out of the bathroom.
"Trader!" Jace yelled at him before the door closed.
"He's quite theatrical," Magnus stated to him.
"Yeah, I know. Everyone in my life is," Alec replied, giving Magnus a look. Magnus gasped in mock offense before Alec rolled his eyes and they both started laughing.
"So, what are you going to tell them?" Alec asked after a moment of comfortable silence. They were now walking down the hallway where the glee room was located and he thought it best to know what they were going to say when they got in there.
Magnus sighed, all humor long gone, "Honestly, I don't know. These people are my friends, they know what its like to be outcasts and called freaks, but they don't know how much of a freak I am. I don't know if they would accept me, I don't want to lie to them, but I also don't want to loose them," He looked down. They had stopped off to the side of the hallway once the conversation got a little heavier.
Alec grabbed his face and lifted his chin up so they were eye to eye, "You are not a freak, and if they don't accept you for the amazing person that I know you are, they they don't deserve to have you in their lives anyway,"
Magnus just smiled solemnly at him while nodding, "It was nice having a few friends who didn't know who I was, who didn't already have a preconceived notion of my person. They never really expected anything from me, or needed me to do things for them," At this Alec looked away guiltily, he knew they had gone to Magnus a lot for help and favors. He also knew the only reason he did them, free of charge, no less, was for Alec. In hopes that one day they would be where they are now, happy and in love. Still, he did not forget everything he owes Magnus, how much the warlock has done for him.
"Sorry for that," Alec softly said, looking up at Magnus with an apologetic look.
"I didn't mind, really. I love you and I would do anything if it meant seeing you happy. It was just nice being... normal for a little while," Magnus sighed out.
"Why would you want to be normal when your fabulous," Alec said, quoting something Magnus had said to him early on in their relationship. Magnus looked at him like he just struck gold, or in this case, silver, "Please never tell anyone I just said that,"
"No promises sweet cheeks," Magnus said wickedly, Alec flinching at the stupid nickname, "Lets do this," Magnus said, taking a deep breath and walking into the room.
The room was filled to the brim with gossip, every one of the New Directions were there and they all had theories about what had happened the night before. So, of course, when Alec and Magnus walked in, all conversation stopped and all eyes were immediately fixated on them.
"Hey," Magnus said hesitantly. Immediately, everyone in the room was in front of them, each asking a million different questions.
"Everybody shut up and sit down!" Surprisingly, it was Alec who made this demand, making everyone stop talking just from pure shock that the boy could speak louder than a whisper. Magnus was even shocked, so much so that he sat down too, "Mags," Alec whisper shouted at him.
"Oh, yes, right," He said, standing up in front of his 'peers', "I know you all must have many questions, starting with what occurred last night," Magnus said to them.
"Damn straight, what the hell did you do to Jace?"
"Yeah and why did he say 'it was a vampire'?"
"Oh, and the fact that blue stuff came out of your hands?"
"Alright, calm down and let him speak will you?" Alec said again from his rightful place behind his boyfriend.
Everyone was once again quiet, "Alright, I don't know quite where to start, so I guess I will lead with the events that brought me here..." Magnus said, and he did. He told them a little about his adventures in Peru, his friends Ragnor and Caterina, Ragnor's death, a little about the first and second war. He told them the basics about warlocks, vampires, werewolves, seelies, and shadowhunters, about him having been around for a few millennia, which was a strait up lie, but they didn't know that, and about him being able to do magic.
"Wait, so you expect us to believe that there are werewolves, vampires, fairies, and wizards-"
"Warlocks," Magnus and Alec mindlessly corrected.
Everyone in the room looked about ready to call the nut house and book them a room, "Right," Quinn said sarcastically.
"And that your some sort of magical man, and you are an angel warrior?" Santana asked, pointing fist to Magnus then to Alec.
"Mags," Alec said to him pointedly, putting a hand on his shoulder. Magnus nodded at him and waved his hand. All of a sudden the lights went out and came back on dimmer, illuminating the newly refurnished room. The seats that were usually regular student desk chairs were now designer arm chairs, there was a beautiful rug adorning the floor, and there was a chandelier hanging from the ceiling. There were a few screams, some surprised noises, and many shocked faces. Alec just sighed, "Really?" He asked the warlock, recognizing the some of the decor from their loft in Brooklyn. Magnus just smiled innocently at him and shrugged.
"Wha- wha-" Was a pretty good representation of the noises coming out of most peoples mouthes.
"Can you get me in touch with someone who can get me a unicorn?" Brittany asked, being the only person not completely shocked.
"So, this is real, your really..." Quinn sputtered.
"Yes, I am," Magnus said, changing the room back, save the rug.
"Wait, so, explain it again?" Rachel asked, taking out a notebook to jot down everything he said. Magnus sighed and repeated his explanation about the shadow world, in vague detail of course.
"None of you can tell anyone, I technically shouldn't even be here right now witnessing this," Alec sighed, just under a year ago he would have went straight to the Head of the Institute with the news a warlock was telling mundanes, but now he was the Head of the Institute and he didn't agree much with the Clave's rules anymore, "So if I get wind of someone telling mundanes, well, other mundanes, I will come back here and it won't be pretty,"
Magnus wanted to tell his friends that Alec's bark was bigger than his bite, but he just looked so damn sexy when he got all leader-ish that he couldn't take his eyes off of him. Magnus was very aware of Alec's status as Head of the New York Institute, with the downworlder meetings and all, just as Alec was aware of his position as the High Warlock of Brooklyn, due to the amount of times they got woken up in the middle of the night because Magnus had a needy client who 'couldn't wait'. Since they both had high demanding jobs, they understood when one of them had a late night or missed a dinner. They both got the burden of power and it was nice to be able to come home and enjoy each others presence, not as a Clave official and a respected warlock, but as two people completely in love with one another. Though, they each had to admit that they loved to see the other at work. Alec always found it endearing and somewhat hot when Magnus would yell at a client or talk about something that he knows everything about. That, and when he did magic Alec would secretly stalk behind the bedroom door to watch him, but could anyone blame him? Magnus looked positively sinful with the wisps of blue coming out of his hands. Magnus was not immune to these little fantasies either, he could admit that he loved watching Alec giving orders and yelling left and right at stupid nephilim. Not to mention when Alec got passionate about something, his face would be determined, sometimes it would even turn red from adrenaline, his voice would get a little louder than it usually was, and the vein in his neck would stand out immensely, giving Magnus the urge to just-
Ok, he was really getting off track here. Point was... Magnus couldn't even remember what the point was. What was he just talking about?
"No, but Magnus does," Alec said.
"What do I do, dear?" Magnus asked, worming his way back into the conversation.
"Apparently, you sparkle like a Twilight vampire," Jace said from the doorway. Magnus made his best offended face, putting a hand on his chest, "Yeah, yeah, whatever," Jace said dismissively, "Alec," He said, nodding to the door. Alec walked out and started talking quietly outside the classroom.
"Ah, Mike, just the guy I wanted to see," Mr. Schue said from behind Magnus' current position facing the door.
Magnus mentally cursed, spinning around and plastering an award winning smile on his face, "Yes Mr. Schue?"
"Where were you yesterday?" He asked, crossing his arms, "I waited for you after school, but you never showed up,"
Magnus went wide eyed, he completely forgot, "Yes, well, uh, I-"
"He wasn't feeling well Mr. Schue," Finn said, covering for him.
"Yeah, so Alec took him home," Tina supplied.
"Mmhmm," Will said, not beliving the obvious lie.
"I-"
But Magnus didnt get to finish making up another lie because at that moment Alec came flying into the room. Literaly flying, that is until he crashed into the chairs, followed by Jace who fell through the piano.
"Alexander!" Magnus said, rushing forward.
"Uhhghh, I'm fine too thanks," Jace said from on- well- in the piano.
"Magnus, wards! Vamp's here," Alec said, getting up. He didnt want to seem demanding, but Magnus had to get the wards up as quickly as possible so that the vampire didn't escape. Magnus, after months of living with Alec, understood what he ment, and immedietly closed his eyes and let the magic flow from both of his now outstreched hands. Usually, he had to set up the wards before he could raise them, but he had already done that with the school, as well as all of his houses and apartments, for procautionary mesures. So, after a moment, he raised his arms up, leaving a trail of blue mist in the air.
"No one gets in or out unless I say so," Magnus said in his 'High warlock' voice.
"Wha- wha-" Mr. Schue was standing in the middle of the room with his mouth hanging slightly ajar.
"I'll fill him in," Blaine volenteered, escorting the shell shocked teacher to the corner to explain.
Alec groaned as he limped over to Jace, already drawing an iratze, "Did you see his face?" Alec asked, knowing Jace had a few moments when Alec was being hurled across the room to memorize their asailent.
"Better," He replied, holding out a few strands of hair. Alec smirked and shook his head, an expression, Magnus noticed, that he only made around his parabatai. Alec cast a quick glance at Magnus before grabbing Jaces hands in his own, a freshly activated tracking rune on the blonde's arm. Magnus had seen them, and other sets of parabatai, do this before and he had always marveled at how intimate it all was. It had always seemed cruel to him, being that close with someone, sharing a part of your soul, all of the darkest parts of yourself, loving someone that much, yet not being alowed to be in love with them.
"Got him," Jace said, breaking his eyes away from the taller boy, pulling out his seraph blade, and turning to the doorway. Magnus would scold himself later on not having noticed the shadow lurking at the entrance to the room, probably due to his little mental trip back to the 1880's to remeber a boy so similar, and yet so different, from the one that stood in front of him. But, for now, he had bigger problems to deal with, the first being to comprehend what he was seeing.
Every mundane jaw in the room dropped, for in the doorway, in all his vampire glory, stood, "Brad?!"
Well there you go, im so sorry it took me so long to post this, ive just been soooo busy, but dont worry i will try to post at lease every two weeks starting this week. Brad is the piano guy, for those of you who didnt know, so Suzululu4moe, because you sparked that idea inside my mind. I know this chapter was a little all over the place, but i promise the next one will have some more plot development, angst with Magnus' past, some glee clubbers perspectives, and, of course, LOTS OF MALEC FLUFF!
