…...

How Can They Not See It?

"Hey, Twinkie."

Alec called as perched on the only empty seat their lunch table.

"Hey, Sugar Daddy."

Magnus replied seductively, grinning and squealing as Alec patted his leg for Magnus to sit in his lap. His best friend sat down and wrapped his arms around him, his fingers playing with Alec's hair.

They shared a smile as Alec stole some fries from Magnus' lunch.

"Seriously, guys?"

Jace asked bluntly, Izzy nodding on agreement.

"We're only gonna ask this one more time. We know you're both gay, but are you gay together because... well, look at you?"

Alec and Magnus laughed hysterically, Magnus shaking in Alec's lap.

"God no. No way. We're not together."

Magnus piled onto Alec statement with a snort of derision.

"We couldn't be together, we've known each other way too long and way too well. We're just friends. We keep telling you this."

The others sighed and Jace rebuked them with confusion all over his face.

"Then why all the touching and nicknames and flirting?"

Alec rolled his eyes at his brother.

"It's just banter, Jace. It's what we do."

Magnus clicked a sassy finger and flicked his hair.

"Yeah. So deal with it, girlfriend!"

Alec giggled as Magnus motioned for a high-five.

Izzy smiled and leaned in closer to them.

"You do know that some people actually ship you together, right? They call you 'Malec'."

Magnus laughed out loud, grinning at Alec.

"Malec, huh?"

Alec thought about it for moment before grinning widely.

"Oh, what about... Agnus?"

Magnus snorted, slapping Alec's arm.

"That sounds like a saggy old lady. How about... Alnus?"

Alec gasped and burst into laughter, watching Magnus chuckle at his reaction.

"Fuck no. That sounds like anus. Hell. No."

They fell into laughter amongst themselves, their friends forgotten, left to just the two of them amusedly.

"Ok. How about... Wait for it- Malexander."

Magnus gasped in awe. He had always loved Alec's full name. Then he laughed in excitement.

"Try... Malexander Banewood."

Alec's eyes glowed and he grinned, shaking with laughter.

"That's it. That's the one."

They fell into fake, joking tears and hugged each other dramatically.

"We are one person now."

Alec agreed sincerely, nodding with mock seriousness on his face.

"Yes. And as we are one person, you must accompany me to the bathroom. I can't leave half of myself behind."

Magnus nodded, taking Alec's hand and standing up.

"Yep. For now on, I'LL GO WHEREVER YOU WILL GO!"

Magnus sang as Alec rolled his eyes, throwing an arm around Magnus' shoulders. They laughed as they left the cafeteria, waving to their bemused friends.

Izzy watched them leave then turn to Jace, Clary and Simon.

"How do they not see it?"

...OoOoO….

"Thank you for helping out, darling."

Alec grinned over his shoulder as he strung up the last of the lights around the ceiling of Magnus' living room. Magnus' mom had gone to visit her sister for the weekend, giving Magnus free reign to another legendary party.

"No problem. You know i always end up helping even when i say i won't."

Magnus chuckled, placing the last of the bottles of drinks on the make-shift bar.

"Of course you do, because ya love me!"

Alec laughed, shaking his head as he climbed off the ladder.

"Damn straight i do, hot stuff."

He winked at Magnus, the boy grinning wolfishly in response.

"Hot stuff? I like it. Now, Mr Tall Dark and Handsome, it's time to get ready, people will be here soon!"

Alec nodded, stretching out his back, smirking at the way Magnus eyed him.

"Careful or i might just act on what our friends believe, you sexy beast."

Alec snorted, clapping Magnus on the shoulder as he grabbed his bag full of his party clothes.

"Go for it, you sexy, sexy, glitterfied demented elf."

Magnus gasped in mock offense as Alec cackled wickedly, slapping Magnus on the ass as he went to change in the bathroom.

For all their teasing and flirting, there was actually so much more to their friendship. They liked to joke and laugh but in truth, they had pulled each other through hell.

They grew up together on the same street. Alec was there for Magnus when his father died. Alec was there for Magnus when his mother fell into depression, Magnus actually staying with the Lightwoods while she was in hospital. Alec was then there for Magnus when his mom and step-father got divorced 2 years ago after 6 years of marriage.

In return, Magnus was there for Alec when his parents got divorced. Magnus was there for Alec when he was struggling with his sexuality, ultimately realising he was gay and coming out to everyone. Magnus was also there for Alec during every single devastating second that followed the death of the youngest Lightwood sibling; Max. He lost his battle with leukemia aged 9. His death almost tore the family apart, Alec almost killed himself. Magnus was the reason he didn't.

So on the surface, to a lot of people, it seemed like they were just flirty friends. But truthfully, they were soulmates, they were brothers, they would stand by each other through anything and no one and nothing would break the bond that formed between them.

Nothing could break Malexander Banewood.

...OoOoO….

Alec woke with a groggy head and heavy limbs, his back aching as light pierced his eyes and he saw that he was laying on the floor of Magnus' living room.

There was something pressed against him, a weight on his chest and something soft brushing the exposed skin of his collarbone.

He smiled as the something stirred, a deep moan leaving it as it yawned and stretched, pushing closer against Alec.

"Morning, beautiful."

Alec said with a smile as Magnus woke up slowly. He groaned in pain, his pounding headache resonating through his entire body. He looked up at Alec and smiled sleepily.

"Last night must have been a good one. I don't remember any of it."

Alec laughed roughly, his throat hoarse and his head hurting.

"Yep. Looks like it was a good one. Go us!"

He celebrated quietly, putting his hand up for feeble high-five from Magnus. Wobbling and stumbling, they pushed themselves off the floor, moaning in protest of every move. Magnus buckled and almost fell, but, as always, Alec was there to catch him.

Alec pulled him up, looking down as he did so, underestimating the space between them as their heads collided painfully, sending them both to the ground where Magnus' face smashed into Alec's and suddenly their lips were connected.

They both froze, eyes wide and their hearts stopped with panic. Magnus quickly pulled away, scrabbling to climb off of Alec and pull him to his feet.

"Uh. You ok?"

Alec nodded numbly.

"Yeah. You?"

Magnus nodded and clicked his tongue.

"Thank god our friend's didn't see that. They'd definitely say something was going on between us now."

Alec chuckled in relief, scratching his neck.

"Yeah. Anyway, i need the bathroom."

He stated as the party threatened to make a reappearance.

Magnus gasped and shook his head violently, immediately regretting if.

"No! You know that when you vomit, i vomit! Don't do it!"

Then he heard the tell-tale sound and sighed, the nausea already blooming within him.

"Damn it, Lightwood."

...OoOoO….

"Welcome to Magnus and Alec's exclusive all-night rave. And by rave, i mean movie marathon and alcohol. Tonight's movie selection is, as chosen by moi, the original Star Wars trilogy because we haven't watched the whole thing in years!"

Alec cheered as he dropped onto the blankets Magnus had laid on the floor while the first movie fired up. Magnus handed him a bottle of scotch and opened one of the 4 pizza boxes that had been delivered.

Soon enough, they were fully engrossed Star Wars once more, slightly buzzed and curled up together amongst the blankets. Somewhere in the middle of Return of the Jedi, Magnus fell asleep, curled against Alec's side, his head resting over Alec's heart.

Alec turned the movie volume down as little a placed a blanket over Magnus as the boy shifted in his sleep, hooking one leg over Alec's hip. Alec smiled down at him and turned his attention back to the screen, reaching out for the bottle of scotch.

Just then, he heard Magnus whisper his name.

"Yeah?"

Alec replied softly, not realising that Magnus had woken up.

"Alec..."

Magnus whispered again. Alec's brow furrowed as he tried to get a look at Magnus' face, frowning in confusion when he saw Magnus very much asleep and biting his full lower lip.

"Magnus?"

Alec said gently, tapping the boy on his hip.

Then Magnus moaned, deep and louder than before, curling tighter into Alec's body.

"Alec."

Magnus' fingers dug into the flesh of Alec's arm as he spoke in his sleep, his hips starting to rotate slowly under the blanket.

Alec eyes flew wide as he felt something big and hard press against his side, rubbing up against him in time with the little panting breaths Magnus was releasing.

Sweet mother of god.

Magnus was having a wet dream about him.

And by the way his moans were growing in both volume and pitch, he was enjoying it immensely.

Alec didn't know what to do. Waking Magnus up would just make it so awkward between them. He didn't want Magnus to feel guilty. He could move, get up and walk away and let Magnus' dream finish. Or he could stay put and let Magnus grind against him, groaning and gasping in his ear.

None of those options seemed right. But one of them was quickly winning as Alec felt his inhibitions lower dangerously with every gyration of Magnus' hips against his own.

Nervously, Alec shifted his hips to the side, pushing against Magnus, gasping as his friend moaned roughly, his lips parting as his head moved to nuzzle into Alec's neck.

Feeling Magnus' warm breath on his skin was driving Alec insane; that was the only reason he could think of as to why he rolled onto his side and pulled Magnus against him, keeping Magnus' leg hooked over his own to grind against him purposefully. He knew it was wrong. He was taking advantage. But Magnus needed it. And his alcohol ridden mind did too.

He slid an arm around Magnus' waist, pulling their bodies flush together, watching as Magnus' eyelids fluttered. He bit his lip to stifle a moan, not quite believing that he was hard for his best friend. He had appreciated Magnus' physical beauty on more than one occasion but he had never been attracted to or turned on by him; the thought was preposterous.

But circumstance won out and soon they were moving together in perfect tandem, gasping as their arousals ground together with every thrust of their hips.

"Alec?"

That single word snapped Alec out of his lustful haze and his eyes flew wide when he saw Magnus' eyes open, staring at him in confusion and panic. Alec didn't know what to do; he couldn't admit to this. So he lied.

"You're dreaming, Magnus. It's ok. You need this."

Magnus' eyes were cloudy, partially drunk, partially tired made Magnus susceptible to Alec's words of deception. He nodded slowly, smiling as he pushed his body into Alec's a little harder, though he was holding back his sounds of pleasure.

"It's ok, Magnus. The real me will never know. It'll just be our little secret. Do what you need to do."

Magnus smiled and rolled his hips again, biting his lip. He knew he wasn't dreaming; he had been before, judging by the image of Alec sprawled naked on the floor of his living room after his party at the time of their accidental kiss. He knew this was real.

He didn't understand why Alec was doing this. Then again, he didn't understand why he was either. But none of that mattered as they moved together, moaning in pleasure for one night only. Their hands explored curiously, they didn't have sex, they just spent time getting to know each other in a whole new way.

Alec let Magnus do as he pleased, after all, this was Magnus' 'dream'. And after what could have been several hours or several minutes of grinding and thrusting and moaning, Magnus came with a cry of Alec's name; without a doubt the hottest thing Alec had ever witnessed, dragging Alec over the edge too. Magnus fell from the high with a laugh and settled against Alec's side once more, cuddling up and slipping back into sleep within seconds, leaving Alec to fret over what had just happened.

What if Magnus knew? What if this ruined everything?

...OoOoO….

The next morning, Magnus awoke cautiously, sighing in relief when he saw Alec asleep next to him, fully clothes. At least some of the dream wasn't real. Half-drunken sex wasn't something he wanted to do with his best friend. Although, his memories of last night left him equally puzzled as they did aroused.

At some point, Alec must have cleaned them up, because there were no traces of their activities anywhere over their bodies. He guessed Alec wanted him to believe it was a dream.

Magnus sighed and sat up, wondering where the hell this left them. Because as he looked down at his best friends sleeping face, calm and young and peaceful, he couldn't help but see the boy in a completely different light.

...OoOoO…..

"Oh my god i totally forgot to tell you this! How the hell did i forget?! Anyway, get this: the day after your party, once we cleaned up, i went home right, to find Izzy in bed, butt-ass naked, clothes all over her floor and- you're not gonna see this coming- wait for it- SIMON WAS SLEEPING JUST AS NAKED RIGHT NEXT TO HER!"

Alec whisper shouted over his fry up at Takis. Magnus listened in fascination, always a sucker for gossip, choosing the wrong time to take a sip of coffee.

When he heard Simon's name, he choked on his drink and spat it out over his breakfast, gasping and spluttering in shock.

"WHAT?! SIMON AND IZZY HAD SEX?!"

Alex nodded, a grossed-out grimace on his face.

"Yep. And i saw then both naked. Not an image i ever, ever wanted to see. I contemplated ripping my eyes out."

Magnus nodded in agreement, still grinning bewilderment.

"I can't believe you forgot to tell me, Lightwood. That party was nearly a month ago."

Alec sighed.

"I know. I apologise. I've just had other things on my mind."

There was a pregnant pause between them, both of them unknowingly thinking of the same occurrence, a certain incident from a few nights ago. Awkwardness settled over them for the first time ever as they picked at their food half-heartedly.

Though it was quickly broken by the arrival of Jace, Clary, Izzy and Simon. The boys immediately grinned at each other, preparing to launch an attack on Izzy and Simon in revenge for all the ones they had to suffer at the hands of their so-called friends.

"Well, well. Look who it is. It's Izzy. And Simon. Hello, Izzy and Simon. How are you, Simon and Izzy. Oh! SIZZY! Oh, i already ship it!"

Magnus called out as they sat down, grinning widely as Izzy gasped.

"Alec! You told him?!"

Magnus nodded regally and winked at them, making Simon blush and look away awkwardly. Alec just grinned at his sister, rolling his eyes.

"Of course i did. I tell him everything."

Izzy sighed and bit her lip, casting her eyes over Simon, who she then pulled closer to her. He took her hand as they scooted round the booth to make room for Clary and Jace.

Alec and Magnus giggled at the Sizzy hand-holding, being pressed against each other in the small booth as the rest of them finally got settled. The waitress came over and took their lunch orders with a flirty smile aimed at Alec. Said boy didn't notice, but Magnus did.

And he immediately wanted the stupid waitress to get struck by lightning.

He pressed himself against Alec, resting his head on Alec's shoulder, his hand laying gently on Alec's thigh. Cuddles like this were not uncommon for them, so when Alec placed an arm around Magnus' shoulders and kissed his hair with a smile, it was completely normal.

But the waitress backed off.

But Izzy didn't. She eyed their embrace carefully, seeing something beyond their eyes; something was different between them but she couldn't see what it was.

All she could do was catch her brother's eye, nod to Magnus, who was seemingly falling asleep on his shoulder, and give Alec a look that clearly said 'you're not fooling anyone.'

...OoOoO….

"Truth or lightning!"

Izzy and Clary cried as they entered the room with trays full of tequila shots. The boys rolled their eyes and moved to sit in a circle, Alec between Jace and Magnus with Simon on Magnus' other side. The girls sat down and Izzy explained her rules.

"Right. Either you answer the question you're asked, or you take a shot. So by the end of the game, we'll be completely wasted or in full knowledge of each other's deepest secrets!"

They all gave her smiles, though Alec was a tiny bit nervous. Telling them his secrets? No thank you. Getting wasted and potentially spilling about the not-dream he and Magnus shared? Hell no.

But the game commenced regardless.

Alec learned some interesting things about his friends during that game. Like, Jace had jerked off 3 times in the past week because Clary hadn't been around until tonight. Izzy had slept with 2 girls in her lifetime so far. Simon once had a torrid star-trek related fantasy that Izzy promised to bring to life before attempting to suck his soul out of his mouth. And apparently, Clary, surprisingly, was the only one of them to ever have a threesome with a couple of guys at comic-con two years ago.

Then it was Magnus' turn in the hot-seat and the game became even less fun for Alec real fast.

"Magnus. Have you ever had a dream about Alec? And not, like, a normal dream. Like, a sexy kind of dream?"

Magnus froze, passing it off as thinking back over his dreams. Then he smiled and reached out, being the first one of them to take a shot instead of talk. Alec blushed deeply as the others hollered, clearly taking his silence for a yes, though Magnus laughed it off in denial.

Then it was Alec's turn. And that's when things got bad.

"Alec! Have you and Magnus ever fooled around together?"

Magnus' eyebrows shot up and Alex blushed again, pushing the image of Magnus grinding up against him out of his head.

"No. As we've said a million times, we're just friends. Best friends."

4 pairs of eyes rolled at his statement and that's when the anger crept in.

"You know what? I'm sick of this. You always insinuate that there's something going on between us. You always sit there and joke and laugh and try telling us that there's more to it. So just stop! Because i think, correct me if I'm wrong, but me and Magnus know our friendship dynamic better than any of you seeing as it's our friendship, not yours! Just because we're both gay doesn't mean we have to get together. It doesn't mean that all our banter and stuff is just repressed sexual frustration. It just means that we're friends! I'd die for him and he would for me too. We've been through hell together and we care for each other like brothers so for love of god, just stop it!"

Alec shoved himself off the ground and stormed out of the room, his final words punctuated by the resonating slam of the door.

He ran up the stairs and burst onto the balcony of the Lightwood house overlooking their garden. The moon was out and the air was cool, helping to calm Alec's raging nerves. He didn't know what caused his outburst, why it bothered him so much. He just knew he wanted it to stop. He didn't want his feelings to be dictated to him.

"Alec?"

Alec turned around to see Magnus standing in the doorway. He smiled and leaned against the balcony railing. Magnus smiled back and stood beside him, sighing at the sky.

"You ok?"

Magnus asked, nudging Alec with his elbow.

"Yeah. It just annoys me, you know. Having people tell me how i feel about you."

Magnus nodded slowly, looking over at him.

"I know. It annoys me too."

But there was something in his voice that made Alec look over at him slowly in confusion. Their eyes met and Magnus took in a deep breath, biting his lip.

"Do you ever think that... that maybe... that if we hadn't known each other as long as we have, if we only met when Izzy and Jace met Simon and Clary... Do you think that maybe we might have gotten together or something?"

Alec bit his lip, thinking of Magnus' words. He supposed that if they hadn't grown up together, there could have been something. He had never denied Magnus' physical beauty but as friends, attraction never grew between them.

"I don't know. Maybe."

A moment of contemplative silence followed his words as they thought about the implications. What they could be if their relationship was different. What might have been?

"I know it wasn't a dream, Alexander."

Magnus blurted out, not looking at him, instead staring up at the moon.

Alec froze, his hands gripping the railing as his eyes went comically wide. His heart was pounding in his chest as Magnus sighed beside him.

"I'm sorry i didn't say anything before. I just... I didn't know what to say, that's why I've been a bit off these past weeks."

Alec laughed void of humor.

"You're sorry? I practically raped you. I completely tool advantage. So I'm sorry. So sorry, i ruined everything didn't i?"

Magnus bit his lip, turning to Alec slowly.

"It's ok. Its not your fault. I didn't exactly push you away. I took just ad much advantage as you. I'm sorry too. I don't want things to be weird but recently things have been different and after what happened during the game i just don't know what's going on anymore."

Alec nodded, knowing the feeling all too well. He looked sideways at Magnus and bit his lip.

"I don't know either. It's confusing. It's like everything is changes and i don't know why."

"What if they're right? What if there's something more here?"

Magnus asked softly, scared of his own words, and more so of Alec's reaction. Alec gasped and stared at Magnus with apprehension in his eyes. He couldn't understand what Magnus was saying; did he think there was space for their relationship to grow into more than friends? Did he want that?

"What?"

Alec asked numbly, for once in his life not being on the same page as Magnus. Their relationship had never been unpredictable. Until now.

"Alec... That night, when we, fooled around... I liked it. And it terrified me because you're my best friend but i saw you as something more that night. I wanted you. You made me feel things no one else has ever been able to. It was intense and mind-blowing and we didn't even actually have sex. We didn't even kiss."

Alec stared mutely, numb to the core, his mind jumping back to that night, the feeling of Magnus' on top of him, grinding against him, his hot, panting breaths spilling over Alec's sensitive skin with every movement. He couldn't deny that it felt so good. He also couldn't deny that he was so freaking scared. One wrong move here, and their friendship was over.

"What are you saying, Magnus?"

He choked out, turning to face his friend properly. Magnus was standing there somewhat helplessly, shoulders hunched and unsure of himself for the time ever.

"I'm saying that maybe we should try and see if something's here."

Alec blinked slowly, letting the words sink in. It made sense, surprisingly. What if they lost what they already had but could gain something so much better? He'd never let himself think this way, but as things were changing, he felt a desperate need to hold onto Magnus in whatever way he could.

"Ok. Let's try it then. You said we didn't kiss that night, then let's do it now."

Magnus was gnawing on his lower lip slowly, conflict in his eyes but wanting to explore this unchartered territory.

"Alright. Ok. Ok. So..."

Alec let out a shaky, nervous laugh and stepped closer, a lump forming in his throat and a hot knot in his stomach, nerves on edge and scared beyond belief. Magnus was in a similar state.

"Ok."

Alec whispered as they closed the space between their bodies, Alec tilting his head just enough to level their lips. Keeping their eyes open and locked on each other's, they leaned in with mutual gravity and the insignificant centimeters between them vanished.

Their lips met hesitantly, lightly pecking, nothing more as they tentatively tested the waters. They pulled apart after a few seconds of this delicate balance between want and fear.

"Alec?"

"Magnus?"

Then all at once they collided, their arms flying around each other as their lips met once more, an urgency fueling their need for one another. It was like their entire lives were hitting them right in their hearts all at once, all those years together were warping, changing their outlooks on their entire relationship, sending them catapulting into the unknown.

Their kiss caught fire as Magnus buried his fingers in Alec's messy hair, sucking on his lower lip and moaning as their groins pressed together. Alec released a strangled gasp at the friction and shoved Magnus backwards against the railing, pressing him into it with his body. Magnus clung to him, panting against his mouth as Alec purposefully sucked on his lip, drawing it into his mouth and tracing it with his tongue as their eyes locked on each other's, drowning in looks of lust.

Time flew by but they didn't notice; they were too wrapped up in the taste and touch of each other to care. Alec's body was straining against Magnus', his large hands and strong fingers running all over Magnus' body, mapping him out and learning all of those secret places that made him moan that little bit louder.

"Guys! Where'd you go?!"

A voice called from inside. They jumped apart breathlessly just as the balcony doors opened to reveal Izzy.

"Hey. Look, we're sorry. We'll stop pushing. Just please come back inside and finish drinking these bottles with us. You know you want to!"

She grinned and Alec sighed a laugh.

"Ok."

She squealed happily and went inside, the boys following her. As they walked through the house, they shared a single look that told each other, quite simply, that neither of them had any clue what to do now.

...OoOoO….

"He's not here."

Magnus' mum, Kaisha, wrapped a comforting arm around him and kiss his head.

"He will be here, baby. I know it. He would never leave you alone especially not today."

Magnus nodded numbly, wiping away tears as he looked down on the freshly laid flowers on his father's grave. It was the anniversary of his death, a day Magnus always spent with his mom and Alec. Alec was always there for him every year. Until now.

Kaisha hugged him quickly, holding back her own tears as she whispered to him softly.

"It'll be ok, Magnus. He will be here. As i said, he couldn't let you down. Like you couldn't let him down. Just you wait and see. I'll give you some time alone."

She sniffled and wiped he'd eyes as she kissed her son before walking back to the car, her heart breaking for her son.

That was until she saw a familiar boy running towards her.

"I'm sorry I'm late! Please say he's still here."

She smiled, call it mothers intuition, but she always knew these boys were endgame. She knew Alec would come through for her boy.

"He's still here."

Alec smiled in relief and went to speed away, but she stopped him.

"Alec... Please, don't hurt my son. Not anymore."

Alec sighed sadly.

"I never wanted to hurt him, Momma B. I love him."

He stated with devastating simplicity. Over the past month, since the night of their kiss after that game, they hadn't seen each other. Alec needed time to figure things out. And those 3 little words were his conclusion.

She smiled softly and hugged him tight.

"Oh, Alec. How did you not see this before?"

Alec blushed embarrassedly as she ruffled his hair gently.

"Go get him, Lightwood."

"Yes, ma'am."

...OoOoO….

Magnus stiffened as he felt a presence walk up behind him. Then a hand landed on his shoulder and he instantly relaxed.

He smiled through his tears before the weight of everything crashed over him and he felt his knees buckle and an onslaught of years burn his eyes.

Alec held him tight, sinking to the ground as he let Magnus cry, like he did every year. He wrapped his arms around him and they remained that way for hours. Until Alec whispered once Magnus stopped sniffling.

"I'm sorry i was late."

"I forgive you."

"I'm sorry for... everything."

"I forgive you. If you can forgive me?"

"Always. I'll always forgive you."

"Me too."

Then they didn't talk for the rest of the afternoon, they just watched the sun set over Asmodeus Banes grave.

...OoOoO….

"Hey, Twinkie."

Alec said as softly as he could, trying not to let his nerves show.

"Hey, Sugar Daddy."

Magnus replied with a smile, all traces of tears gone.

Alec walked into his bedroom and shut the door, climbing onto his bed where Magnus was curled up, watching old episodes of Friends. Alec handed him a bowl of chocolates and a glass of hot chocolate topped with whipped cream before settling in beside him.

"You doing ok, Hot Stuff?"

Alec asked somewhat normally, nudging Magnus in the ribs. The boy laughed and nodded.

"I'm doing good, baby, how you doin'?"

Alec snorted, playfully hitting his shoulder as he stole a chocolate from Magnus' bowl. Said boy gasped indignantly and watched in horror as Alec ate it, grinning in smugness at his ninja actions.

"Fuck you, Lightwood."

Magnus growled, placing the bowl on the bedside table out of Alec's reach.

"Go for it, Bane."

Alec threw back teasingly, falling into their old patterns. Except, this time, Magnus' eyes darkened and he licked his lips.

"Don't start something you'll regret, Alexander."

Alec cocked an eyebrow, knowing that this time was different. Wanting this time to be different.

"Who says I'll regret it? Because i won't."

Magnus gasped, the playfulness slipping away, giving way to something darker, deeper and far more exhilarating.

"Well, neither will i."

There was a brief moment of silence before Alec spoke again, choosing his words carefully.

"Magnus... I've been thinking this past month. And i decided that i want you in my life. No, i need you in my life. I also decided that i love you. And not in a brotherly, flirting banter friends kind of way. In a 'i love you always and forever, the furthest thing from trivial, i don't want the world, i just want you' kind of way."

Magnus stared at Alec in shock, his words slamming into Magnus' heart so hard that he thought it would actually explode. He didn't know what to say, but he was a firm believer in actions speaking louder than words anyway.

He launched himself towards Alec and slammed their lips together, swallowing Alec's surprised gasp as he delved his tongue into the boy's mouth, tasting him, biting and sucking, seemingly trying to devour him. Not that Alec minded.

He responded with equal enthusiasm, wrapping his arms around Magnus' slim hips until he was perched over Alec, straddling his waist, his hands buried once again in Alec's hair as they sucked their souls from each other's bodies.

Things turned heated and hot and desperate in a matter of minutes and soon they had no choice but to break apart for oxygen.

In that painful moment of separation, Magnus whispered to Alec with a huge smile on his face.

"Hey, Alec?

"Yeah?"

"I think i see it now."

"Me too. God, our friends are going to give us a world full of pain and 'we told you so!' when they find out."

Magnus groaned and rolled his eyes.

"Yep."

Alec sighed, sliding his hands up under Magnus' shirt, gripping his hips as Magnus started to slowly grind against him.

"Worth it though."

Alec whispered against Magnus' lips. They were the last words either of them spoke for a while, becoming far too preoccupied with each other's bodies as their clothes came off and they reached a whole new level of intimacy.

With every touch, every taste, every moan, every time Alec would tighten his full body grip on Magnus, every time Magnus would slip his fingers deeper inside, before giving Alec what he had been begging for relentlessly for near on hours, they fell more and more in love. Words weren't enough to express what they felt, but the actions of love were more than enough.

...OoOoO….

"I'm not gonna say i told you so. But I TOLD YOU SO!"

Izzy cried as she hugged them both, grinning from ear to ear. The others were smiling too, rolling their eyes at the time it took for Malexander Banewood to become Malec.

...OoOoO….

"Hey, Twinkie."

Alec called as perched on the only empty seat their lunch table.

"Hey, Sugar Daddy."

Magnus replied seductively, grinning and squealing as Alec patted his leg for Magnus to sit in his lap. His boyfriend sat down and wrapped his arms around him, his fingers playing with Alec's hair.

They shared a smile as Alec stole a kiss from Magnus' lips, moaning into Magnus' mouth while Magnus grinding his hips into Alec's, making them both way too hot way too fast.

"Seriously, guys?"

Izzy asked, gesturing to the fact that the way practically sex at their school lunch table.

"Sorry."

Alec replies with a blush on his cheeks, but he leaned in and whispered in Magnus' ear, biting his earlobe playfully.

"But not really. I'm never sorry for having you on me."

Magnus giggled and kissed him again, groaning loudly just to gross out their friends.

Jace let out a grunt of mock-disgust.

"I can believe I'm saying this, but i think i preferred it before. Why did they have to figure it out?"

The other laughed as Magnus and Alec shared a small, private look. One that simply said, after everything that had happened, three simple words.

I love you.

...OoOoO….
