magnus smiled ❝eh, i had no choice, from the moment i met you, i was always yours❞ he admitted. ❝i had to be patient, and i’ve never had a reason to regret it❞ even when he was deeply hurt by alec, and the soul sword, he had always been alec’s. maybe in some strange way, he had always been, even long before he even knew him. some part of magnus was always meant to belong with alec. he’d like to think so anyways. maybe all those years of heart break and bitterness, was just so magnus could appreciate the young shadowhunter, and everything he brought to magnus ❝and even if i had a choice, i would still chose you❞

hearing alec admitting he hadn’t slept well at the institute ❝well if you want to, you can always stay here, on a more permanent basis❞ magnus had never asked someone to move in with him, especially not someone he was dating. he had never gotten this far, and he probably sounded stupid. what if alec didn’t want to move in? he would look foolish. ❝only if you want to that is. because i want you to.. move in i mean❞ he smiled hopeful. what was taking so long to respond? or was it just magnus’s own mind making the moments seem longer. he felt his stomach do flips, and if alec didn’t answer soon, he for sure would be sick. 

magnus laughed a little ❝oh yes how could i forget. you were so cute with your bow and arrow❞ he teased his boyfriend ❝and you had such a way with words❞ he winked. magnus had thought it was adorable, even if he teased him now about it, but truth was, magnus had never believed in love at first sight, and even then he didn’t, maybe it wasn’t love, but the moment he locked eye with alec, he knew he had never felt anything as strong or true for anyone else. he kissed alec’s lips softly ❝it was rather cute❞ and magnus smiled

magnus had put up a wall to the world. before he realized it had done it, it was up. there was a part of him that wanted to let it down, but he was scared. scared of living through heartbreak again. his friends Catarina and ragnor mostly, wanted him to but there was something blocking him. with alec, the wall came down, before magnus could even realize it. it wasn’t gone completely, but it wasn’t nearly as strong as it was. magnus was still scared, but when alec looked at him with those soft greenish eyes, magnus melted 

❝what you did, wasn’t ill-intentioned.❞ magnus told him ❝we all make mistakes as leaders, and maybe i should have taken more time after it happened. maybe things would’ve gone differently. but like i said, its the past. what matters is here and now.❞  magnus believed alec, when he said he would protect magnus’s people as he protected his own. he felt safe, because he saw first hand what alec would do for his family and firends, it was one of the reasons magnus fell in love with the shadowhunter. he had the biggest heart of anyone magnus had ever known. magnus smiled ❝well call it whatever you want, it was hard to sleep without that sound❞ and it was truth. many people had come and gone from magnus’s bed, but it wasn’t until alec that he realized how badly he wanted someone there every night and every morning. magnus nodded  ❝together❞ he just said. what else was there to say? 

he could see the worry melt from alec’s body, and that made magnus feel better he continued to kiss him, but broke the kiss to simply add ❝you leave me breathless alexander. you have since the day you shot that circle member at the rave❞ he smiled caressing alec’s cheek ❝i love you completely, heart and soul❞ he stated, and with that, he kissed him again

hearing alec tell him how much he loved him, almost made magnus cry. every time. this wasn’t the first time magnus had been in love, even before camilie. he couldn’t describe how it was different now, but it was. magnus couldn’t believe alec loved him, but at the same time, he never doubted it. magnus loved alec too, more than he ever thought he could. being with alec was enough to make his whole world seemed right.

magnus felt guilty. he let his anger take over. he had his reasons, but alec was torturing himself over it, and he didn’t want that ❝look, i don’t care what she says anymore. from the moment i went down to seelie court for the meetings, she had one comment or another about working with shadowhunters. i only believed her then, because of my anger. then i actually worried my love for you would cost my people their lives, their safety. i know only see she wanted me on her side, she wanted us all to live in the seelie realm as her slaves. she didn’t care about my people’s safety, which you felt by not telling me you were helping.❞ he explained  ❝please don’t burden yourself alexander. what’s in the past is done. i’ve spent too much of my life living in the past. i have so much to look forward to❞ he smiled after alec kissed his forehead ❝things like that, going to bed with you, waking up to the soft sounds of your snores, or see madzie grow up, and max too. we have a whole future to live for, lets not live in the past❞ magnus smiled warmly at his boyfriend

the closer the way, the more magnus felt safe and at peace. his home wasn’t this loft, but it was alec lightwood. ❝you are and always will be the best thing that has ever happened to me in my 400 plus years on this earth. i love you so very much. i always have and i always will. no matter what, hold onto that❞ magnus assured him, but it was also a promise. who knows what would happen with his people, after the seelie queen mess or things with alec’s job or his, magnus knew that there would never be a day as long as he lived, where he wasn’t totally, completely in love with alec. he kissed him passionately to let him know he meant every word

there wasn’t anything about alec that didn’t take magnus’s breath away. his smile, when alec really smiled that was, the kind that made his hazel greenish eyes sparkle like jewels, it was enough to stop magnus’s heart. all he wanted was to see that smile always. sometimes when his days were long and he didn’t get to see alec all day, he’d think of that smile, and it would make things better. he got weak in knees having alec in his room, and soon in his bed. magnus knew it was cheesy but he liked to look at alec when he wasn’t looking, just to think to himself how lucky he was. after what seemed like a doomed life to live alone, closed off, and lonely, he finally found someone who made him feel so filled with love, he couldn’t believe it  ❝i know the feeling my love❞ 

he smirked ❝that is very true.❞ then he teased ❝although you can shoot your arrows pretty good❞ magnus made sure alec picked up on the inunedo and then he just took a moment to look at all the runes that he didn’t see when alec was wearing a shirt. magnus loved being this close to alec, his breath giving magnus magnus chills. he looked at him and tried to smile to assure him ❝alexander were you really afraid?❞ magnus had been too, he just wasn’t sure alec felt the same. magnus had people afraid to loose him, but only because of his stature, not because of who he was. magnus had never had anything worth loosing before, and now he did. he made everything better, and scarier at the same time. he missed alec every moment they had been apart. ❝you have to know, i wasn’t, the reason i walked away, wasn’t because of the soul sword, not fully anyway. i went to see the seelie queen, after our fight, and she made a comment that made me take a step back❞ he admitted ❝she said that our relationship would come between me protecting my people. which i know it doesn’t. i should’ve said something sooner. i love you alexander, and i know why you didn’t tell me, and that you didn’t mean to hurt me❞ he touched alec’s face ❝if its any consulation, pretending i was so angry was you, was the hardest thing i’ve ever had to do. walking away was the most painful. i now know i don’t need to choose between protecting my people and you, because you are my people too.❞

magnus loved how modest alec was. sometimes he wondered if his boyfriend was truly modest, or just acted that way. magnus had seen in his time, men who weren’t even as good looking as alec, act cockier than him, an on top of that he was a shadowhunter, which was a group who always acted as if they were better than everyone. not alec though. he never talked to magnus or his friends as if they were less than him. he admired and loved that about him. what he had with alec, was more than he could ever ask for, and it wasn’t something he was ready to give up on, despite their conflicts and arguments. he loved alec lightwood, it was done. he couldn’t go back, nor did he want to. his life before felt so empty compared to now. the love he felt whenever he saw alec smile, or laugh, or just say the 3 simplest words in the world to him, no one could ever compare. 

❝i think resting sounds perfect my love❞ he grabbed his hand and walked with him to the bedroom. every night felt like a dream in a way. he got undressed in his night clothes and climbed into bed. before alec could be fully undressed, magnus used his magic and lifted up his shirt slightly. he smiled mischievously and said  ❝sorry, i just do it so much better❞ he winked as he took off his rings, and jewelry and set it in the holder next to his bed. ❝you aren’t going to leave me here all alone now are you shadowhunter?❞ he teased him.

[brooklynshighwarlockbane]

magnus cupped alec’s face ❝you’re adorable❞ he smiled and shook his head. as they sat comfortably on the couch, magnus corrected ❝techiqually the episode is next. don’t ask why they started with episode 4 i wish i could say❞ that was one thing magnus never understood. one of the things about alec magnus loved and was grateful for, is he wasn’t the jealous type. or at least he didn’t show it. magnus tried to make sure even when things were bad between them, alec knew without a doubt, that magnus had only eyes for him. magnus didn’t go around talking too much about his relationship past, but only because it was his past, and he was happy in the present. however, magnus knew if he didn’t deal with the past, it would only come back to bite them in the ass later. magnus didn’t want to relive the whole soul sword thing. he knew alec blamed himself, too much for it. yes it hurt magnus that alec kept it a secret, but there’s more at play than alec realized. magnus knew alec deserved to know the full reason he walked away that day. he was just scared alec would get angry, or hurt and they would end for good. just for now, anyways he wanted to live in this blissful moment. magnus pulled alec in as close as he could and linked their hands. nothing felt as calming as laying here with alec. he hoped alec would enjoy the movie. 

as the end credits came up, magnus smiled down at his boyfriend  ❝so wanna watch another one? or do you wanna head to bed?❞ alec may not have officially moved in, but he spent most of his nights and free time there with magnus, which didn’t bother magnus in the slightest. if they could stay here forever, he wouldn’t complain. magnus wanted to ask alec to move in, but he was afraid it might be too soon, and the other man may say no.❝i don’t mind either way❞

[brooklynshighwarlockbane]

magnus wished alec could help. right now though, a shadowhunter interfering, could cause more problems than help. he didn’t tell alec that, he wouldn’t want him to feel bad. ❝i will, thank you❞ he smiled. hearing that alec would always worry about him, made him a little happy. he knew worry was a part of love, like he would worry about him, when he’d go right into danger for his job. however neither let that worry stop them from doing what they loved. it took a moment for magnus to figure out what alec was talking about ❝you mean star wars?❞ he said in a teasing voice ❝i do have the movies, if you want to watch them❞ he got up and placed the movies in and sat on the couch, giving alec enough room to join him. he summoned some popcorn, some more drinks. ❝we’ll watch it in order they released.❞ he told him ❝cause if you watch it in order of episode 1 and so on, the big twist in episode 5 isn’t as big❞ he felt alec might be confused  ❝you’ll see trust me❞ as he scrolled through the commercials he admitted ❝you know when i first saw this movie, when it came out, i mean, i remember thinking mark hamill who plays luke was so cute❞ he teased alec. after all alec had no reason to ever worry. there was no one else for magnus but alec. no matter what.

magnus assured him  ❝you are a good leader, just trust your heart. believe me its one of a true leader. everything will be fine.❞ there wasn’t much in the future magnus was sure of, but this one of them. alec was different than his predecessors: and he knew wanted to unite the downworld with the shadowhunters. maybe it was because of them, maybe it wasn’t but he couldn’t help but be proud of alec.❝its not just me, raphael, and lucian both sided. but camilie left the new york vampire clan in such a mess, no one but raphael wants to clean it up, and lucian already defeated one old alpha to become and stopped someone else from taking his place. i don’t think anyone is gonna try and mess with him. as for me, i’m not worried, and neither should you❞ he smiled leaning into the touch as alec rubbed his shoulders. the idea of taking a breather sounded nice ❝i was thinking the same thing.❞ he turned to face alec, and kissed him softly. ❝follow me❞ he held onto alec’s hand and walked to the couch. with his magic he turned on the old fire place, he rarely used, and made two classes of wine appear. ❝to a nice long breather and some much needed us time❞ he held up the glass to toast

[brooklynshighwarlockbane]

magnus couldn’t help but feel as if he was glowing with joy. all his life he felt this sense of being alone. even when he was around his closest friends, he still felt alone. the shadowhunter of all people had finally made him feel like he wasn’t alone. that he finally belonged somewhere. it was funny, if he thought about it. he had spent so much time away from shadowhunters for fear of getting hurt, and this one had been the one person who was always there. he smiled ❝well that’s good. maybe you can be the leader i know you to be, without having someone breathing down your neck.❞ he had no doubt in his mind that alec was always destined to be a leader. even when he had only just met him, and everyone seem to be looking at jace, magnus saw how alec could look at the bigger picture. he could make tough choices, and get the job done. he had a huge sense of care and duty for his line of work. ❝same honestly. there’s a divide between the seelie’s and the rest of the shadow world. everyone is upset about her deal with valentine without telling anyone else. some are angry with the local leadership❞ he stopped himself. he didn’t want to get into it right now. nothing may happen, and he didn’t want to cause worry ❝but it’ll blow over soon, i’m sure of it. i have no doubt❞ they came upon his building, and magnus led alec in ❝everything just needs to take a breather and realize the worst is over❞ he smiled to try and hide his worry. until he knew for sure, there was no reason to make a fuss. 

[brooklynshighwarlockbane]

magnus placed his arm around alec’s waist as they walked towards his loft. as they walked, magnus couldn’t believe this was his life, and alexander really was his boyfriend. so long magnus had spent alone, just assuming he would always be alone. he had completely given up on the small possibility of being happy and finding someone that he just closed himself off. all alec had to do was smile at him that first day, and something deep inside magnus cracked wide open. he wasn’t sure if it what it was about alec, be it his love for his family, his strong sense of duty, or the way he always made magnus feel loved and appreciated, or maybe it was a combination of everything, but magnus knew he never wanted to be without alec’s company. ❝has everything sort of calmed down at the institute with the clave since valentine’s death?❞ he asked curiously. the downworld had been in a tizzy since finding out that the seelie queen had sided with valentine. magnus worried there might be back lash for him, for siding with her, but so far, nothing. 

[brooklynshighwarlockbane]

magnus had lived his loft for a long time. he had moved it here and there as he needed, either to protect himself, or simply to see a new place. it was a place he lived, but it wasn’t until alec had spent the night that first time, that it felt more of a home. he and alec hadn’t even shared a bed, but just having him there, just felt right. it felt even better when he did wake up with alec next to him, the sunlight glistening on the sheets. it felt like a dream, as did every day with alec. it was as if after more than a few lifetimes of pain, he finally found someone whom he could truly love and love him. as they finished their drinks, magnus set down the money and stood up. he held onto alec’s hand as they walked out. the air was cool and brisk. it was nice after the hot, humid summer ❝what do you say to an evening stroll home?❞ he asked. he wouldn’t gladly portaled them home, but the night was almost too nice to pass up.

❝i always knew i couldn’t have what i wanted, till you came along❞

[brooklynshighwarlockbane]

magnus hadn’t heard the name merlin in, a very long time. he smiled thinking of his old friend. he saw the blonde man trying to get up, but having no luck. ❝yeah i don’t think you can get up, at least not on your own. come here.❞ he said lifting the man up, hoping he could stand on his own. some people didn’t want to accept help, especially from a stranger, which magnus understood. he wouldn’t accept help from just anyone himself. he sighed. ❝do you think you can walk?❞

the man was dressed in clothes magnus hadn’t seen in a very long time. it almost seemed that this man was out of place in the time. then again some people may say that about magnus. he didn’t sense any magic from the blonde man nor did he feel any supernatural presence from him. magnus looked at him  ❝can you tell me your name? my name is magnus bane. don’t worry i won’t hurt you❞ he stated. again he wouldn’t have taken it personally if he didn’t trust him
