Sorry it took so long for me to update. I've actually had this written for a long time, like, three weeks, but I couldn't think of an ending, and the one I put just now is the last three lines. So all of this was written and ready to go except twelve words. I hope I can update more often, but I'm going to wait and try to finish my other story, which has become my top priority right now, so don't wait for an update. One will come when one comes.
"How much longer is it?" Simon asked. Even though he loved hiking, he absolutely hated watching Jace and Clary walking in front of him, Jace's arm around the red heads shoulders, acting all lovey-dovey. And he had to listen to Magnus and Alec behind him. The two weren't talking loud enough for Simon to hear what they said, but every once in a while, one of them would make a noise of some sort, ranging from giggles to moans.
"Lighten up Simon and stop nagging." Isabelle said. Simon wondered how even when hiking in forest on a hot summer day she never got dirt on her and never appeared hot or sweaty.
"I'm not nagging."
"Yes you are."
Simon was about to defend himself more when Clary squealed and screamed happily "There's the lake!" everyone else looked and saw a large lake filled with beautiful, sparkling clear water. There were rocks around the edges of the lake, and no other people in sight.
Jace took off running towards it, Clary hot on his heels. When they reached the lake's edge, Jace jumped in yelling "Cannon ball!" Clary jumped in after him. Both of their heads popped up to the surface moments later, laughing.
Magnus went racing by Simon, dragging a protesting Alec with him by the arm. At the water's edge, they stopped running.
"Come on Simon." Isabelle laughed, walking in the lake's direction. Simon smiled slightly and followed.
[Line break, but not a time skip!]
"Magnus, I don't want to get in the water." Alec said, struggling to break away from Magnus's hands holding his shoulders.
"But Alec." Magnus complained. "It's not going to be fun without you."
Alec shuddered. "I've been around you enough to know that you don't mean that sentence in the innocent way."
Well, Magnus had been around Alec enough to know what he had to do to get what he wanted. And Alec always gave him what he wanted. So, the warlock grinned and releasing the shadowhunter's shoulders, moved his hands to wrap around his waist.
Alec froze up, and could tell Magnus was grinning. "Please Alec."
When Alec didn't respond, Magnus moved one hand from his waist and around to the small of his back. Then, very slowly, he moved it down to farther.
"Magnus." Alec tried unsuccessfully to break free of his grasp.
"Yes?"
"Please let go of me."
Magnus sighed. "Alright." He pulled away from Alec, who caught slightly off balance from the sudden loss of Magnus, who he had been leaning against.
Magnus took the moment to shove Alec forward.
Alec screamed, but it was cut short as he hit the water. Clary and Jace were nearby, laughing away, as were Simon and Isabelle farther down the bank. Magnus laughed with them. The look on Alec's face as he had fallen had been priceless.
Alec's head appeared from the water. He glared up at Magnus, who stood on the rocks above waving. "Magnus!"
Magnus laughed. "I'm sorry Alec, but you weren't getting in the water on your own."
Alec growled and began to swim back to the rocks.
(line break but not a time skip!)
"Hey Clary, I bet you I can swim faster." Jace taunted the shorter girl, who glared at him.
"No, I'm faster." Clary said, grinning slightly and splashing Jace with water.
"Ok. I bet you I can get to the other shore before you."
"You're on." Clary took off swimming as she said it.
Jace smiled and swam after her.
(line break but still not a time skip)
Isabelle sat down on a rock over-looking the lake. She could see Jace and Clary swimming quickly across the lake. From where Isabelle was she couldn't see Magnus, but she could see Alec, just now climbing back up onto the rocks, wet from having been pushed in the water by his boyfriend.
Simon sat down by Isabelle. He didn't want to get wet, and while he didn't want to sit here with Isabelle, he also didn't want to walk around the lake's edge. Simon feared he would run into Magnus and Alec, who he couldn't see right now, and that they would be doing something he didn't want to see.
The two sat silently for a few moments, not knowing what to say.
Finally, Isabelle looked over at the vampire. "Simon, do you like being a vampire?"
Simon was surprised. Why would she want to know that? "Well, I don't know. It's got it's pro's and con's."
"Oh."
There was another awkward silence.
Simon started to speak, but decided not to. Isabelle was about to ask Simon something, but she was interrupted by a weak scream that stopped suddenly half way through.
"What was that?" Simon asked, shocked.
Isabelle grinned. "It sounded like Alec." she laughed at Simon's traumatized expression.
(line break but not a time skip…again)
Magnus looked back when he heard Alec scream. He hurried down the rocks and saw the shadowhunter, hopping around on one foot, holding the other.
"Alec, are you ok?" Magnus asked him, half concerned, the other half too distracted by the way Alec's wet clothes clung tightly to his body. Magnus finally moved over to help him stand.
"No. I stepped on a really sharp rock."
Magnus looked at Alec's foot. "It looks ok to me."
"It hurts though." Alec complained.
Magnus grinned. "Well, if you want, I can help make it better."
"How-" he was cut off by Magnus pushing him against a tall boulder. The air was knocked from his body, and just as he was about to get it back, Magnus kissed him deeply, his hands holding Alec's hips.
Alec kissed Magnus back, reaching up to tangle his fingers in the others hair, pulling him closer.
Magnus pushed Alec up farther onto the boulder, gripping his thighs and helping the younger wrap his legs around his waist.
Alec leaned back as far as he could and Magnus leaned down over him. The warlock pulled back after a few moments though.
Alec bit his lip, confused. "What's wrong Magnus?"
"Nothing. It's just that if we continue this here, I doubt I will be able to restrain myself from taking you."
Alec blushed slightly. Detangling himself from the other, Alec started to walk down to the water. Magnus followed a few steps behind him, wondering why Alec wanted in the water now.
I'm so sorry it took me this long to update! But, school is over now, so updates should be coming more often. (ha ha, not! I'm working too much on another story. Sorry guys!)
But I won't be updating if I can't think of anything to happen. So if you have an idea, please let me know, because I don't have any ideas for this story really.
