Alec moved to the window seat and eagerly flicked through the fifth diary of Magnus'. He had gone through what had happened to Will and Tessa and was now onto more recent entries, the very entry he was reading now was dated last year.
Dear Diary December 2007
Held my monthly party tonight, all went well except an incident with one of my cocktails turning someone into a rat. Along with rat boy Clary Fray turned up, she is of course the daughter of Jocelyn Fairchild whom I had performed a forgetting spell on for almost the entirety of her young life, but that's not the important thing here, the issue is that a group of Shadowhunters also turned up at my party, one snarky blonde, a girl with long black hair and the prettiest sight I have seen in a long time. I thought it couldn't be, William Herondale couldn't possibly be alive, but then he spoke and I realised it wasn't him. This boy also had a way about him that wasn't William.
He had the same black and blue eyes sure, but his manner, he was shy and awkward where William was over confident, and he was a gentleman, I very much hope I see him again.
Alec looked up at Magnus who had stopped pacing or fiddling and was watching Alec read his diary.
"This is about me"
"Yes"
"About the night you met me"
"Yes it is"
Alec smiled, a rare sight Magnus thought.
"Keep reading"
"There's more?"
"There's more"
Alec looked back down at the diary and flicked over the page, the next entry was about their midnight kiss.
Dear Diary
Alec came over tonight, yes the boy from the party, his name is Alec. He claimed he was just walking in the neighbourhood but I knew he was here to see me. He told me he had never been kissed so I decided to grant him his wish, I kissed him.
He seemed to enjoy it very much, so much so that he kissed me back, really passionate I must add, and he's an excellent kisser. We're going to start seeing each other.
Alec smirked and his cheeks flushed a healthy colour of red
"I'm a passionate kisser?"
"Yes you are" Magnus grinned and came and sat next to his boyfriend.
"And you called me a gentleman where Will was not, that's weird considering he came from the Victorian era"
"It is true"
"But a gentleman? I'm not a gentleman"
"I mean you're kind and caring and warm where William was not, he was cold and distant, you always put others before you, that's what I love about you" Magnus told him, leaning forward, he placed a kiss on Alec's warm lips, Alec reciprocated for a few seconds, then pulled back.
"I had a thought" Alec began
"This doesn't sound good" Magnus leaned back against the glass of the window.
"What if you became mortal, then we can be together like any… I was going to say normal, but what is normal? I guess I meant Mundane couple"
"But we are not a mundane couple"
"I know"
"But I cannot be made mortal, I am simply too old"
"What would happen if you did?"
"I would crumble into ashes" Magnus told him, Alec looked horrified
"See I couldn't do that to you"
"Are you telling the truth Magnus?"
"Of course, I wouldn't lie to you Alec darling"
"Good. Ok then I guess mortality is out of the question as well"
"Why do you want to change what we have?" Magnus asked, covering Alec's hands with his
"Because…I guess I didn't realise what we had, until now, and I want to be with you as long as possible"
"You will be" Magnus smiled just as the huge double doors to the library opened and in stepped a young woman with long chocolate brown curls.
"Ahh Tessa dear, I was wondering when we'd meet again"
"Hello Magnus" Tessa returned a smile.
"Tessa?" Alec asked and then looked at Magnus
"Alec, I would like you to meet Miss Tessa Gray, she's going to be your new tutor"
