Chapter 13: actual glitter in the library

It had been a couple of months since Alec and Magnus had had their meeting with Minny in her office. The rest of that day had been spent at the lake, Alec had felt the most relaxed he had in a while, he was with his favourite people and he was free to be with who he had wanted.

He still got looks from people when he walked down the corridor but he no longer cared what people thought, he was just happy that he was allowed to be himself.

Magnus had taken another attitude to being out as a couple. One of the most infamous events happened the day after the meeting.

The library had been very quiet and Alec was actually working by himself for the first time in a while and he had nearly finished his potions work next up Ancient runes, SHIT! Why did Magnus have to be busy? Why hadn't he told me what he was doing? He pushed this thought to the back of his head he was probably spending time with Ragnor.

He had been fully immersed in his work and hadn't noticed the person walking up behind him when all of a sudden it was raining glitter covering him and he work, while this happened a voice that he was very used to hearing shouted:.

"THE LOVE OF YOUR LIFE IS HERE SHOWER ME WITH YOUR AFFECTION!"

Alec burst out laughing, so that's what he was up to!

Magnus gave him a big gin and a kiss before running out of the library being chased by a very angry librarian.

"I'm sorry Pincey-kins it had to be done! Alexander will clean it up."

Alec would have if he remembered that spell and if he wasn't laughing to hard and sneezing glitter. Needless to say Alec gave up work and swiftly left the library, leaving a trail of glitter behind him.

Magnus was waiting round the corner bent double laughing.

"Why?"

"Cause I can" he gave him his biggest smile, they just looked at each other both the happiest they had been for a while. They walked towards the Gryffindor tower, its late anyway work can wait for tomorrow.

He had also developed the habit for waiting for Alec outside his classrooms or doing his work on the quidditch stands when Alec had practice.

"He's like a puppy" Jace announced one day in the common room.

"Who is?" Alec asked confused. "Simon?" he asked while pointing at Simon, who he was playing chess it, to clarify who he meant.

"HEY!"

Jace laughed, "Well yes, but I meant Magnus." He gave Simon a reassuring pat on the shoulder, who was mumbling about how he wasn't a puppy, "he follows you around, waits for you outside the classroom…."

Before he could continue Clary came in the room and he stopped and went over to her.

Alec raised his eyebrow and turned to Simon "and Jace obviously isn't a puppy." Stretching out the word obviously.

The rest of the term went by in the blink of an eye and it was almost as if everything went back to normal, almost, classes happened, homework was completed. The only thing that was different was the Alec was more himself than ever.

Halloween had been and gone, not that any of them could remember what happened. What they did remember was the hangover the day after and Jace waking up in a wig handcuffed to Simon.

But one thing was looming in the distance, Christmas, his siblings had chosen to go home and he had received a letter from his mother saying:

Dear Alexander,

As you know Christmas is coming up and as usual we are having it as a family.

You are of course invited to come home if you wish.

Love

Mother.

He didn't know what to do.
