A/N: G
Alec's heart pounded and it was the only thing he could hear. Everything was moving in slow motion and he felt like he was under water.
Boom Boom.
Boom Boom.
A steady heartbeat echoed through the church, though he saw someone playing the organ and people chattering. He knew the heartbeat was his own because the same one slammed in his pulse. He felt a strong arm loop in his and looked up into the face of Luke Garroway. His heart sunk, remembering that it was supposed to be his father walking him through this momentous event. He didn't let it phase him though, he kept on his smile and walked down the wide Isle.
He looked past Luke, over at Magnus. He was walking, tall and proud. His tux fit him well and was cut to flatter his long form. His hair was spiked and hued with gold but it wasn't as sparkly as usual. Alec almost felt a pang of irritation that he couldn't wear sparkles, but he remembered that it was an extremely formal event.
Catarina walked with him, even though she, obviously, wasn't his father. They couldn't invite Magnus's father to come to the wedding; that would be terrible. She was wearing a long blue dress that matched Alec's eye color and was a few shades darker then her skin. Her alabaster hair was done up in sparkly pins and she walked down the aisle barefoot. She seemed to be crying, but Alec wasn't too sure they were happy tears.
The way Magnus looked down at her made it seem like he was walking her down the isle too. Maybe something happened in the past, preventing her from having her wedding. Alec's smile wavered at the thought.
He looked straight ahead to see Jace, who was smiling but in that smug, Herondale, kind of way. Izzy was standing on the other side, crying happily and silently. She looked absolutely stunning in her flowing blue dress. It made her eyes look brighter. Her hair was done up in pins the same way as Catarina's but hers was long and dark. Simon stood next to her in a tux just like Jace's. His gold friendship ring gleamed catching the light. Clary's identical ring shimmered from her spot next to Jace on the other side of the alter.
Alec was thankful that they had opted out of the whole "one at a time up to the alter" or "one of us stands up at the alter first" things. It seemed much better this way and he felt more comfortable knowing half the eyes in the room were looking at Magnus. Strike that, more then half. He was so radiant, Alec had to prevent himself from gawking at him.
Alec spotted his mother standing next to Jocelyn, smiling brightly. She looked so much like Isabelle, it was astonishing. She wore an elegant white dress with long flowing sleeves. He could see her runes faintly through the sleeves, making him smile. All of Izzy's shirts did that.
Alec's breath caught in his throat as he reached the front of the alter. Magnus stood across from him, beaming.
Alec was breathless at the way Magnus looked at him. It was as if he were the most magnificent person on the face of the earth. He never felt attractive. He thought his hair looked too messy and his tux was too big. The golden designs in the shape of the wedding union rune made his suit look strange. Under Magnus's gaze he felt regal. Like he mattered. If this was what he was going to experience every day, he would stand in front of a crowd and sing if he had to.
"Are you ready?" Magnus whispered.
"Yes," Alec whispered back. He finally was.
The ceremony officially began.
