A/N: So, it's been long enough. Here's the next one. It's long. It's smutty. It's cute. There's plot development starting to happen…
Enjoy!
...
After Alec took a shower, he followed the sound of Magnus' singing, a sound he hadn't heard since the night they met. He smiled reflexively and leant in the doorway, listening to Magnus' silky smooth voice sing Bon Jovi's You Give Love a Bad Name.
Alec let his voice flow over him, mouthing along to the lyrics. Magnus swung his hips and danced a little, flicking his hair as he cooked them breakfast. Alec wanted to laugh, or film it so he could remember it forever. When the chorus came around again, he couldn't resist joining in.
SHOT THROUGH THE HEART
AND YOU'RE TO BLAME
YOU GIVE LOVE A BAD NAME
I PLAY MY PART
AND YOU PLAY YOUR GAME
YOU GIVE LOVE A BAD NAME
HEY, YOU GIVE LOVE A BAD NAME
The guitar came in and Alec could resist a little air-guitar, swinging hips and flicking his hair.
Paint your smile on your lips
Blood red nails on your fingertips
A school boys dream, you act so shy
Your very first kiss was your first kiss goodbye
As Alec sang, he moved closer to Magnus, swinging his hips against the man's as he growled the lyrics in ear. He gripped Magnus' waist and spun him around, pressing him against the counter top while singing the line about being 'a schoolboys dream'. Alec winked and sang the next line, about the kiss, leaning in so his lips brushed Magnus' as he sang.
When the verse ended, he surged forwards and stole a hot kiss from his man's lips, moaning as he did so. He pulled back and smirked at Magnus' expression; shock mixed with lust mixed with almost embarrassment. It was cute. Tucking a stray piece of hair behind Magnus' ear, Alec spoke normally, all growling sexy voice gone as the song continued to play in the background.
"Why'd you stop singing?"
He asked, referring to the fact that after their jointly sung chorus, Magnus stopped, leaving Alec singing alone.
Magnus shrugged.
"I can't sing with you, I'd just embarrass myself. You're too good."
He mumbled as he plated their fry-up breakfast. Alec set the table as he replied truthfully.
"Are you kidding? Magnus, i was listening to you sing for a while. And you're good. Very good. Amazing actually. Your voice is so smooth and low and hypnotic. It's really sexy. Like your normal voice is."
That moment went down in history as the one and only time anyone had ever made Magnus Bane blush.
Alec laughed at his expression, Magnus looking away humbly as they sat down to eat.
"I'm serious, Mags. You could be a singer. Instead of helping Ragnor with the magazine, you should be in the magazine."
Alec tried to say through a mouthful of bacon. Magnus laughed softly, shaking his head.
"Nah. Singing as a career never appealed to me."
Alec nodded wisely, pointing his fork at Magnus with a knowing gaze.
"Ah, yes, that is because of your childhood dream of being a doctor and saving everyone from death."
Magnus laughed, choking on a sausage. Ironic, they both knew; laughing at the innuendo for longer than they should have.
"Exactly. I guess i did the whole aspiration and dream career thing backwards."
Alec's brow furrowed, confused and wanting to know more, know everything, about this man.
"What do you mean 'backwards'?"
Magnus took a sip of his OJ and explained.
"Well, most people aspire to be a doctor when they're in high school and college, getting all the degrees and qualifications for it and such. Kids dream about being astronauts and ninjas and movie stars. I did it the other way around."
Alec smiled, looking at him in surprise.
"So are you telling me that now you want to be an astronaut?"
Magnus chuckled, unable to resist reaching out and taking Alec's hand, kissing the back of it as he smiled, shaking his head.
"God no. I would look terrible in one of those space suits. I just meant that, as a kid, i wanted to be a doctor. And as an adult, i want to own a club and hang out with rock stars."
Alec smiled, his eyebrows jumping in surprise.
"You want to own a club?"
Magnus nodded.
"For years now, I've wanted to. Ever since i went to Pandemonium for the first time. And then Ragnor started the magazine and wanted my help and we started meeting all these artists and travelling LA and i knew that i wanted this kind of life."
Alec nodded thoughtfully, fully engaged with Magnus' every word. He listened to his story with a strange kind attention, like every second had Magnus drawing Alec in more and more.
"So why don't you open a club then? I mean, photography for the magazine is cool, but if a club is your dream, go for it."
Magnus sighed a laugh.
"Funny you should say that... Because i have one. And it's opening in 6 months."
Alec's mouth dropped open and he gasped.
"What? You own a club and you didn't tell me?"
Magnus chuckled.
"No. Because it's not ready yet. Besides, my design and building crew are angry with me at the moment because i changed the entire scheme for it 6 months before opening."
Alec laughed, finishing his food, nodding along in encouragement.
"Why?"
Magnus sighed and ran a hand through his hair.
"Well, the club is in partnership with the magazine. So it's called 101. And the Punk Rock 101 logo is red and white, so that was the colour scheme for the club. But, after talking with Ragnor, i changed it. To black and blue."
Alec watched him curiously, biting his lip softly.
"Why black and blue?"
Magnus smiled softly, running his finger in patterns across Alec's palm, twisting their fingers together absentmindedly.
"It's my favourite combination. And i had a stroke of inspiration."
Alec gulped, his eyes locked on Magnus', seeing what could only be described as love shining in them.
"I had a stroke of inspiration too, you know. This week, while we were apart."
Magnus smiled.
"Did you? What caused it?"
Alec bit his lip.
"What caused yours?"
But they didn't need to say it. They both knew they had inspired each other, that's why they grasped their hands together and moved with mutual gravity across the table for a heart-stopping kiss.
When they broke apart, Magnus smiled and asked, "I was inspired to change my club... What did you do?"
Alec beamed, biting his lip, before pulling away from Magnus and going to grab the schoolbag he had dumped next to Magnus' couch yesterday evening.
Rooting through it, he spoke with a smile, his eyes shining as Magnus watched him in amusement.
"While you changed your club, I wrote a song."
Magnus' eyebrows shot up in surprise as Alec pulled a folder from the bag, running back to the table and whipping out a few sheets of paper. He smiled as their eyes locked and he passed the paper to Magnus with a light blush on his cheeks.
"Around The World and Back, by Alec Lightwood."
Magnus read aloud, smiling softly, wondering what exactly it was about, but just reading the first few lines, he gathered the meaning. Then he read the chorus and his heart wanted to bleed every emotion he was physically capable of feeling.
Alec watched him read it, biting his lip nervously, unsure of what Magnus would think; after all, the last time Alec had amended a song for Magnus, the man had literally run away.
But that wasn't the case this time.
"Alexander... This is amazing. It's exactly the way i-"
Magnus cut himself off, his lower lip quivering. But Alec filled in the rest for him.
"It's exactly the way i feel about us. I was missing you this past week, i hadn't seen you since Ragnors party and i had to get my feeling out. And, well, that's them."
Magnus looked like he wanted to cry. His boy, his Alec, was just completely and totally beautiful in every way.
"It's so good. You really are talented, Alexander."
Alec smiled, his blush back in full force.
"Well, if you like it on paper, you'll love it when you hear it."
Alec said with a confident grin. Crossing the room, he picked up one of Magnus' acoustic guitars that were displayed on stands against the exposed grey brick wall. He sat cross-legged on the large red, white and blue area rug with the guitar in his lap.
"Come over here. And bring the song with you."
He called, patting the ground beside him. Magnus looked at him in bewilderment, unsure as to why the boy chose the floor and not the large 5 seater electric blue and bubble-gum pink corner couch.
He sat down gingerly beside Alec, holding out the paper to him, but Alec shook his head.
"No. That's for you. I know the words. You don't."
Magnus looked at him, puzzled. Alec laughed, stroking a soft line up and down Magnus' arm.
"You see, it can be sung by one person, but i think it works best as a duet."
Magnus' eyes widened and he shook his head fast.
"No. No, i can't sing it with you."
Alec pouted, pleading with the cutest puppy-dog eyes he could muster.
"Why not? Come on, pleeeaaase? It is my birthday, remember? You can't say no to me on my birthday, Mags."
Magnus glared at him. How dare Alec hit him with puppy-dog eyes, begging and that damn nickname? Magnus' ultimate kryptonite. All three together. He stood no chance.
Sighing, he looked at Alec with his trademark sassy raised eyebrow.
"Fine. But you owe me, Lightwood."
Alec smirked in triumph. Putting the guitar down, he got onto his knees and crawled over to Magnus, dipping his head to seal his lips over the man's, moaning as he felt the soft silkiness of Magnus' mouth against his own. Nowhere was touching apart from their lips, that single sensation sending tremors down their spines, awaking that pleasant fire within just enough to make them kiss that little bit harder.
But Alec pulled away just as Magnus was about to really go for it. Magnus pouted and Alec grinned wickedly.
"Sing with me, and afterwards, you can have the rest of that kiss. Maybe more if you're lucky."
Magnus licked his lips, unable to resist those full red lips, that glimmer in those cerulean eyes, that tantalising body with his graceful arched back and low hanging tank top, that messy hair and the blue and black. He could only nod and smile, sighing as Alec beamed in victory.
"Ok. Look, right. It works when one person sings it, but for the duet version, i split it up so the first person, so me, will sing the first verse and the first chorus. Then person number two, so you, will sing the second verse and second chorus. Then we do the bridge bit and the last chorus together. Got it?"
Magnus nodded numbly, a tiny bit nervous and really not wanting to mess up Alecs work of lyrical art. But the smile on his boys face told him everything was ok.
"Alright. Here we go."
Alec said with a smile, biting his lip as he strummed the first chords.
Been around the world and back this year
Told myself I wanna face this fear
But I don't think I can stand on my own
He's got eyes like spring, legs like the summer
Everybody says he looks just like his father
But I think he wants that left alone
Alec sang softly, a blush spilling over his cheeks. He could feel Magnus' gaze locked on him and his cheeks burned as he kept his eyes on the guitar.
There's too many ways to say goodbye
But it's quite the opposite this time
Alec took a deep breath, getting into the rhythm as he looked up to see Magnus' eyes shining with adoration and pride. That made any nerves he had go away. It gave him the confidence to sing these words directly to his muse.
Sometimes I can't help but say
I'm falling in love and it's scaring me
It came to me in a dream
Now all that's left is our empathy
But this is just the life I ordered
One step back and two steps forward
Sometimes I can't help but say
We're making history
Alec watched Magnus smile, closing his eyes to let Alecs voice just wash over him. He bit his lip as Alec sang, knowing the words were about them; it was personal and perfect. And as he opened his eyes, Alec nodded to him and Magnus knew it was his turn to sing. He took a deep breath and hoped he didn't mess up their song.
Been around the world and back this year
I never wanted to be so sincere
I'm not a hero or a saint
But don't push me away
When you believed in me it brought us together
Everybody says that it won't last forever
Close your eyes, don't cut the ties, it makes sense
As he sang, softly and nervously, staring hard at the paper while Alec stared at him, smiling at that beautiful angelic voice, Magnus couldn't help but notice that words were exactly them. They fit their story perfectly. Alec truly was amazing, despite his age, he clearly knew more about love than Magnus did; because Magnus could never have put his feelings into words like this.
There's too many ways to say goodbye
But it's quite the opposite this time
He took one last breath and focussed on the chorus. Even though they were Alec's words, Magnus wanted the boy to know that Magnus meant them when he sang them, just as much as Alec did.
Sometimes I can't help but say
I'm falling in love and it's scaring me
It came to me in a dream
Now all that's left is our empathy
But this is just the life I ordered
One step back and two steps forward
Sometime I can't help but say
We're making history
Our history
The guitar was the only sound that filled the air for a short while, Alecs nimble fingers plucking the chords softly, the noise was so real, so authentic, so honest, even without words, the emotion in Alecs playing was enough. Then, breaking the serenity, Alec nodded to Magnus as the bridge part came up and they sang together properly for the first time ever.
You pulled me in like a tidal wave
And let ourselves just float away
With no direction, or a way to rewind
Yeah, you pulled me in like a tidal wave
Thought that it was my mistake
And we'd fall apart before I say goodbye
But it's quite the opposite this time
They started shakily, Magnus thinking that he could never match up to Alec's standards. But their voices melted together, Alecs lower than Magnus', a perfect complement with a sweet harmony; he two of them together. It just worked. Then the chorus came in and they sang with smiles, Magnus' eyes shining with a few little tears at the sheer beauty of this moment.
Sometimes I can't help but say
I'm falling in love and it's scaring me
It came to me in a dream
Now all that's left is our empathy
But this is just the life I ordered
One step back and two steps forward
Sometimes I can't help but say
We're making history
Our history
They held the final word, hitting the note dead on, their voices as one while Alec strung out the final chord. Then the room fell silent and Magnus had to admit that they sounded pretty amazing together; Alec was right, that song was the perfect duet.
Not breaking the silence, Alec placed Magnus' guitar on the ground and took the paper from Magnus' grasp, taking Magnus' hand between his own.
"I told you, your voice is amazing."
He whispered with a special smile, the kind he only reserved for his man. It melted Magnus' heart and he gave in.
"Yeah. I guess I'm alright. You though, you are phenomenal. That voice, that song... It was so perfect, Alexander."
Alec blushed, biting his lip, shuffling closer to Magnus, crawling on his knees like he was unworthy of being at the same level of such a magnificent being.
"I only wrote how i feel."
He whispered, looking up at Magnus through his lashes. Magnus' lips turned up at one corner.
"Well, what you feel just stole my heart, baby. I loved it. And i love you. So much."
Alec beamed, wrapping his arms around Magnus' neck and hugging him tight.
"I love you too. Thank you for singing it with me. You just made this the best birthday ever. Although it already was after last night... I love you. You're everything I've ever wanted."
He mumbled into the warm skin of Magnus' jaw. Magnus held him tight, squeezing his waist affectionately.
"Aw, baby, i love you too. And I'm glad your birthday is good so far. Last night was, it was just... It was amazing, you were amazing."
He whispered seductively in Alec's ear, kissing the sensitive skin behind it, groaning in pleasure as Alec tightened his hold on him and climbed into his lap as Magnus spread his legs.
"So were you. I've never felt like that before. You were just so-"
Alec cut off and Magnus didn't need to see his face to know he was blushing like a sunburned sailor.
"I was so what?"
Magnus enquired slyly, lowering his voice that special tone he used only to turn his baby boy on. Alec moaned directly into his ear and Magnus knew he had him; whether or not Alec wanted to, he would say it, because that voice of Magnus' could switch off his brain to mouth filter in no time.
"Big."
Magnus grinned evilly, licking his lips. He slid his hands under Alec's shirt, digging his nails into the boy's skin.
"And that's good right? You liked it?"
He groaned as Alec bucked his hips, grinding down onto his clothed erection. Alec moaned, licking Magnus' neck as his breaths became shallow and desperate.
"God yes. It felt so good."
Magnus smirked, pulling Alecs shirt off, tracing the paths between the spattering of hickeys he had left there last night. He nuzzled his face into Alec's neck, biting down on the tendon between his neck and shoulder.
"It felt amazing for me too. You are just so perfect for me, it fit in there like you were made for me. And god, do i wanna be inside you again."
Alec whimpered, tearing Magnus' shirt over his head, unclasping his belt buckle with hurried motions.
"I want you in me again too. So, damn it, fuck me, Magnus. Please. I need you."
Magnus caught Alec in a hot smack of lips and tongues, a mess of wild lust. The boy wrapped himself around him as Magnus got to his feet, dropping down onto the couch with Alec still in his lap.
"Ok, baby. Seeing as you asked so nicely. Although you know that while you are 16, this is still illegal."
Alec pulled away from devouring Magnus' neck.
"I know. But i love you. And it's my birthday."
Magnus groaned as Alec hit him with the puppy-dog eyes again.
"You know i can't say no to you, baby. And i wasn't saying no; i was saying its wrong."
Alec bit his lip and rolled his hips, licking Magnus' jaw as the man smirked.
"It's wrong, baby. And bad. And illegal. It's against the rules, baby boy."
Alec moaned incoherently in Magnus' ear, biting his earlobe. Magnus smiled lazily, rubbing his hands up and down Alec's chest, raising goose bumps on the boy's skin.
"I don't care. I believe that rules are made to be broken."
Alec replied as he climbed off of Magnus' lap, pulling his jeans and boxers off, dropping then beside them on the couch. Magnus watched him with heavy-lidded eyes, licking his lips as his boy stripped down to nothing.
Mouth-watering, his raised his hips as Alec peeled his skinny jeans off, throwing them on the living room floor. Sliding his hands over Magnus' entire body, Alec climbed back onto the couch, straddling him. Magnus' hands immediately found Alecs hips and he yanked him closer, their bare bodies colliding as they devoured each other with hungry kisses.
In no time at all, Alec was perched over Magnus' groin, lowering himself onto Magnus with a satisfied moan, loud enough to wake the dead. Magnus was panting as Alecs body engulfed him for the second time ever, holding him close and swallowing Alecs gasped breaths as the boy got accustomed to his size once more.
Alec bucked his hips, sliding up and down rhythmically, slowly at first, getting used to the motion. Then Magnus started thrusting upwards, one hand gripping Alec's hip, the other braced against the couch, digging his fingers into the top of the cushion for leverage.
Alec placed his hands either side of Magnus' shoulders on the back of the couch, digging his nails in to help him move faster. They were both moaning loudly, gasping as their lips met in a wild mess of lust. Alec watched Magnus' face contort with pleasure while Magnus looked down, smiling and staring with intense concentration at the point where Alec's body swallowed his dick. That sight made him harder than ever; watching himself slide in and out of his boyfriend's compliant, desperate body.
Just as Alec started to really ride him, bucking and thrusting wildly to the point where the couch was moving with the strength of his motions, Alecs phone started ringing from the pocket of his discarded jeans.
Their eyes locked and they knew neither of them were going to stop. So Alec stilled himself on Magnus' lap, Magnus buried inside him to the hilt, as the boy leaned over to get his phone.
The caller ID read 'Dad' and Alec smirked, showing the phone to Magnus. The man bit his lip and grinned at Alec's wicked smile, moaning with abandon as Alec clenched around him while answering the call.
"Hello?"
He answered normally, not giving away any signs that he had a 26 year old man's dick up his ass. Magnus chuckled under his breath and thrust upwards just enough to make Alec yelp in surprise.
"Alexander! Happy birthday, my boy!"
His father called down the line, Alec smiling as he heard the sentiment.
"Hey, Dad, thank you."
As he spoke, he gradually started moving, bending his knees to bounce up and down gently. Magnus groaned, stifling the noise by biting his lip. Alec leaned in and kissed him, grinning against his mouth.
"Isabelle told us you were at Simons with the band so i just wanted to call and let you know that as we can't do the traditional birthday breakfast with you this year, we're all going to Takis for lunch instead."
Alec wiggled his hips in celebration. Because he was genuinely happy about that. And also because he wanted to feel Magnus' dick nail his prostate. Mission accomplished.
"Oh that's awesome! Thank you. I'm sorry i couldn't be there this morning."
He replied, as Magnus bit his other ear, licking the shell as he whispered "No you're not," and bucked up harder against Alec's prostate. Alec giggled, gasping as his legs tightened around Magnus' waist.
"It's alright, Alec. We know, the band comes first."
He father replied fondly, Alec could hear his smile through the phone.
"Oh, I don't know about the band, but Alec definitely comes first."
Magnus drawled in Alec's ear, smirking as the boy hit him, rising up off of Magnus' dick as punishment. Magnus pouted, thrusting his hips against nothing to get Alec back on him. But the boy flipped him off playfully.
"Yeah, sorry. But you know, now that I'm 16, Valentine will call to set us up and then its go time so we have to be ready."
Robert sighed softly, but Alec knew he was smiling.
"We know. And we're so proud of you, son. But I'll let you go for now and we'll see you for lunch. And don't forget, Isabelle is throwing you party in an undisclosed location later!"
Alec beamed, slightly pissed that everyone except him knew the location. And his father was just another one that teased him and laughed, saying his goodbyes and sending his love before Alec hung up with a smile.
"Well, at least they bought the lie that I'm at Simons."
He said casually, well aware of Magnus' current state. He smirked at the man, who glared at him; a look that would have been scarier were he not so horny and begging for his boyfriend still.
Alec sighed.
"Damn it, i just can't say no to you, Mags."
Magnus beamed happily, leaning to meet Alec's lips for a kiss. Wrapping his arms around Alec's waist, he lifted the boy up and slid him down right onto his dick, sliding in easily thanks to their previous endeavour.
They both moaned and quickly fell back into their pattern of thrusting and fucking. Alec could still feel the thrill of talking on the phone while Magnus fucked him; it was so wrong but it felt so good. It made him feel all dirty and hot and bad. And Magnus seemed to have enjoyed too.
So much so that after only a couple more minutes, they both climaxed, screaming in pleasure as they descended from their shared high.
Alec could definitely get used to illegal sex with his secret boyfriend.
...
After taking a shower and spending some time watching old Big Bang Theory reruns, Alec left Magnus' with a smile on his face. They shared one last deep kiss and whispered words of love before Alec headed to Takis.
Lunch with the family was a quiet affairs; just like old times. They laughed and joked and told stories. Jace told the same one every year; Jalec and the Mango Incident.
Basically, they snuck out one night, got drunk on cheap cider at age 14, woke up the next morning in their living room with a mystery mango beside them. To this day, they don't know where it came from. It tasted nice though.
Alec received his gifts from them too.
The Lightwood family ring from his parents, as well as a new Harley motorcycle. He was very happy about that; although, they only gave him the key at Takis, the bike was at home.
Jace bought him a t-shirt that read 'I'm with stupid' with an arrow pointing to his crotch. Robert wasn't too pleased but they all laughed regardless. Jace also threw a roll of twenties his way, telling him to "get whatever you want. I would suggest more of those condoms dad gave you." Alec blushed, mortified at that memory, while Robert averted his gaze and the others choked on their food for laughter.
Izzy bought him a new leather jacket, it was jet black and silver, chains everywhere. Perfect for their live shows. She also threw in some new eyeliner and a pair of black leather combat boots.
He left in high spirits, heading home so Izzy could dress him up for his party later that night.
He was only dreading it a little bit.
...
Pandemonium was thrumming with life, the music pounding so loud it could be heard on the street outside.
Alec grinned with happiness when Izzy had led him through the doors; he was sort of annoyed at himself for not guessing his party was at Pandemonium.
But that didn't matter because this party was amazing.
There was no alcohol, obviously, as the place was full of young teenagers. But between the music; an infinite playlist of all Alec's favourites, the decorations and flashing lights and the food, the whole place had an amazing atmosphere.
Alec was currently watching Jace attempt to dance with Clary, while Simon had his arms around Alec's sister. He averted his gaze from them.
Instead, he took another cup of fruit punch from the refreshments table and laughed at Jordan when he buckled down the stairs from the stage.
Just when he turned away, he felt a pair if arms circle his waist and he yelped in surprise. He looked down and smiled at the pale skin with green painted nails.
"Ragnor! You made it!"
He exclaimed, turning around with a wide smile, Ragnors arms still around his waist.
"Of course, Alexander. I couldn't miss the latest and greatest rock stars 16th birthday."
Alec laughed as Ragnor winked, swaying to the music in the background. They danced together while they talked about the bands future, Ragnor informing him that Valentine was due to call at 10pm.
Over Ragnors shoulder, Alec saw a flash of bright blue and black dart across his eye line. He followed the mouth-watering line of legs, up a slim, toned chest until he reached that beautiful face, meeting those captivatingly exotic eyes.
He smiled, blushing as Magnus stared at him, eyes narrowed as he took in the sight of Ragnors arms around his boyfriend. Alec smirked, pulling Ragnor closer, winding his arms around Ragnors neck and swinging his hips to grind against the man.
Ragnor raised an eyebrow and looked over his shoulder. When seeing Magnus, he laughed playfully, turning back to Alec.
"You're playing with fire, kid."
Alec grinned.
"I know."
Ragnor chuckled, still dancing so close that their bodies touched.
"Is he coming over?"
Alec shot his gaze back to Magnus, seeing the man striding towards them.
He bit his lip, as Magnus stopped beside them.
"And what, pray tell, are you doing with my baby, Ragnor Fell?"
He asked calmly, his eyes narrowed when their hips rolled together. Alec met Magnus' gaze and licked his lips.
"I'm sorry, Magnus. You can join if you like."
Ragnor smirked, laughter in all their eyes, knowing this wasn't serious.
"Fine."
Magnus stated, sliding in behind Alec, placing his hands on his boy's hips, locking his fingers with Ragnors. Alec blushed as they danced together, laughing hard as the men tickled his sides. Soon enough, the dancing stopped and Alec broke free, red faced and unable to breathe for laughing.
"God, i need a drink. I'll be back."
He ended, Terminator style. The men nodded and laughed, falling into easy conversation as Alec went over to the drinks stand.
"Hey, brother. Having fun?"
Izzy asked slyly, winking, then casting he'd eyes towards Magnus and Ragnor. Alec blushed hard and Izzy giggled.
"So, which one are you dating? I think it's the Asian one with the cool eyes."
Alec choked on air, gasping, flushing red. But Izzy grinned and threw an arm around his shoulders.
"It's ok. I'll say nothing. Just be careful, ok?"
Alec gave his sister a grateful look. Sometimes he forgot she was only 14; she was the most perceptive person he knew and he could trust her with anything. Even Magnus.
After sharing a small hug with her, he flitted back to the men and started talking about the latest episode of Pretty Little Liars, of all things.
Then, over the top of the music, a shout-out burst from the speakers.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we are gathered here today to celebrate the 16th birthday of Pandemonium veteran, Alec Lightwood, frontman of our favourite band; SHADOWHUNTERS! Give him a hand! And once you've done that, he's gonna give us a song! Get up on that stage, Lightwood!"
Alec gasped, looking around wildly, seeing Simon and the rest of his band on stage. He smiled and laughed, walking away from the men and jumping up into the stage.
He had nothing prepared; this was as much a surprise as the rest of the night was. But he found his bliss and he and the guys blasted the speakers for the rest of the night; ending the party on an old classic; Living On A Prayer by Bon Jovi.
And it was legen – wait for it – dary!
...
Later that night, Alec was sitting on his front porch, just after the guys left.
Valentine had called earlier, wishing Alec a happy birthday and telling them that the following weekend was the weekend he was flying them to California for their first contract meeting.
They were all pumped; their dreams were coming true, becoming a real reality in one weeks' time.
But for now, Alec could only sit in the cool air and let the glory of the day wash over him, relaxing after the whirlwind of the party.
Just as his eyes started to droop closed, as he leaned against the porch steps, he heard footsteps approach his garden.
He opened his eyes and smiled softly, sitting up on the steps.
"Magnus."
He breathed, almost whispering. The man smiled and sat beside him on the ground.
"Hey, baby."
Magnus whispered, smiling. But Alec felt like something was wrong.
"Magnus, I'm sorry about the stuff with Ragnor-"
"Baby. I'm not mad about that. It was all joking and playful. I know it was all just jesting."
Alec fell silent. "Oh. Well then, ok. Good."
Magnus laughed softly, taking Alec hand and pressing a kiss to the back of his hand.
"I just didn't get to give your present."
Alecs eyebrows rose and he smiled.
"What? I thought you gave me my present... Several times."
Alec whispered with a blush. Magnus chuckled and leaned in for a soft kiss, tugging gently on Alec's lower lip.
They broke apart and Alec smiled as Magnus licked his boy's lips playfully.
"I wanted to give you these. I had them made last week while i was away."
Alec looked at him curiously as he drew a small box from his pocket. It didn't look like an engagement ring box, thank god, but it was intriguing.
"What did you do, Magnus?"
He asked cautiously. The man laughed.
"It's nothing scary, i promise. Just a little something for you. Something to keep me close and remember us when you make the big time."
Alec's brow furrowed and he opened the box, beaming at its contents.
There were five guitar picks in the box, blue one side, green the other. Each side of the picks had holograms with the initials 'AL + MB' written on them, coming and going in varying lights.
Alec smiled softly and closed the box, pulling Magnus in for a full on kiss. Magnus moaned against his mouth and drew back quickly.
"What if your parents see?"
Alec smiled, curling his hands in Magnus' hair.
"They're asleep."
Magnus nodded. "Well alright then."
And with a low laugh, he wrapped his arms around Alec and dragged him close for a heart-stopping, open-mouthed, and breath-taking kiss.
They broke apart some time later, blushing and giggling together while Alec rested his head on Magnus' shoulder.
They talked absentmindedly, about nothing and everything, basking in each other's company.

A/N: So? Let me know what think in the reviews you leave :p I hope you liked it :) Any predictions you may have are welcome; I love hearing where you guys think the story is heading.
Also, the songs used in this chapter are:
YOU GIVE LOVE A BAD NAME by BON JOVI
And the song Alec wrote is AROUND THE WORLD AND BACK by STATE CHAMPS. It's such a nice song. Its kinda sad and full of love and hope and stuff. I like it, I hope you did too :)
So anyway, that's about enough from me, although I just want to take a moment to say THE SHADOWHUNTERS CAST ARE BACK IN TORONTO TRAINING AND GETTING READY TO FILM! HARRY HAD A MAGNUS WARDROBE FITTING YESTERDAY AND HE AND MATT WERE SHOWN WORKING OUT TOGETHER IN A VIDEO ON HARRY'S SNAPCHAT! SEASON 2 IS HAPPENING GUYS!
Ok, fangirling outburst back under control. Right, yeah, so, thanks for reading and the next chapter will be up soon :)
Love,
Anna…xxxx
