A/N: HOW IS ALEC'S FAMILY GOING TO REACT? lets find out...
Izzy screamed. Magnus had expected that much and already had his finger in his left ear when the sound pierced the air. Alec cringed even though he new she was shrieking with joy.
Honestly, all they had done was walk into the institute, holding hands and beaming. Magnus had nodded at Izzy, telling her everything she needed to know, before she turned into a banshee of delight.
Jace ran into the room, chest heaving, and looking around wildly.
"Who's dead?" He asked in a panic, his blade extended. Then he saw Alec's blush, Magnus's nod and Izzy's smile.
"Oh my god. Oh. My. God. You said yes." He managed to say before his sword clattered onto the ground. He tackled his Parabatai with a hug. Alec was forced to let go of Magnus's hand but he was too happy to care. He just laughed and held Jace tight, savoring the moment. Izzy was clapping and tears were falling with felicity. It was like a dream.
Maryse came in to see what the commotion was about. Jace let Alec go so he could speak to her.
"So, is it happening? Did you say yes?" Maryse said, her voice tight with withheld emotion.
"Yeah, mom." That was the first time Alec had called her mom since he was very young. She smiled and choked back tears as she enveloped him in a hug.
Now Alec was tearing up. He hadn't hugged his mother in so long. It felt so good that something inside of him ached. Nostalgia overwhelmed him as memories surfaced of when he was a child and Maryse wasn't as stern as she was presently.
And then Robert walked in.
Magnus's grin fell. Alec reluctantly let go of his mother at the sight of him. Izzy stopped clapping and Jace's stance changed to a defensive one on instinct.
Robert looked tired, like he hadn't slept a wink the previous night. His eyes shifted from one person to another. They landed on Magnus shortly before he looked away, guilty. They finally rested on Alec.
"Congratulations. I'm sorry for how I acted to Mag-"
"Don't." Alec stopped him, surprising everyone in the room. He was usually so respectful of adults. "I don't want to hear you say something you don't mean. If you can find it in you to accept me for everything about me, including Magnus, then you can come to my wedding. If you can't then don't bother showing up."
Robert looked guilt stricken but didn't reply. He nodded and retreated back down the hallway.
Everyone was silent. Alec looked surprised at himself for actually saying those things. After a second, everyone sprung back into motion. Jace patted him on the back, smiling and saying, "You did good. I didn't know you had it in you. You know, you can be pretty fucking scary when you want to be."
Maryse slapped Jace on the back of the head for swearing, but it was jokingly.
Izzy gave Magnus a tight hug, then complained about getting glitter on her outfit and in her hair.
Magnus was laughing with her, as she chattered on about wedding themes, and met Alec's eyes a couple times over her head.
Izzy excused herself to go call Simon, who was with Clary, to let them know the good news.
Magnus, snagged Alec by the waist and kept his arm around him while he talked to his mother. Alec's eyes were so bright and seemed to get brighter with every positive thing Maryse said to him. Everything was so perfect.
Magnus wished he would just cry and release his bottled up emotions of glee, but unlike everyone else, he was much too happy to cry.
