#44. “Is that my shirt?” with Malec? Thank you!😊
It was their second time together, the second night Alec could feel the warm skin of Magnus's back against his chest, the second night Magnus could, if he listened careful enough with a bit of magic, hear Alec's heartbeat. It was the second shower together, the second time they could link fingers for longer than a couple minutes before someone interrupted them whether by call or barging into Magnus's apartment.
The second morning that Magnus woke to the quiet sound of something sizzling, not bagels and sausage this time, now he was smelling bacon and eggs floating through the air from his open bedroom door. The gold silk shifted under him as he sat up and stretched, looking at the clothes scattered across the floor from where they'd carelessly thrown them the night before, his fingers reaching out to tug Alec's t-shirt off of the lamp beside him.
"Is that my shirt?" Alec inquired as he carefully moved over the bed and settled behind Magnus at the edge, handing him a fresh cup of coffee once Magnus finished the last button. The small, fond smile on Alec's face as he glanced back told Magnus that he wasn't upset, so the warlock settled comfortably back against Alec as he sipped carefully from the mug.
"It is, do I look good?" Magnus's voice was soft, still raspy from both sleep and their night before.
"You look beautiful," Alec crooned as he pressed a soft kiss to Magnus's cheek, his lips lingering against the smooth skin as his arms wound around his boyfriend.
The trilled mew came soft from their right, Chairman Meow padding up beside them to rub his face against Magnus's elbow and partially against Alec's arm. The purr was quick to follow and Magnus closed his eyes, leaning into the affectionate touch of Alec's lips until they moved up, slowly, to his temple, resting there until Alec's forehead replaced them.
"Last night was nice." Alec said softly after a long pause to enjoy the comfortable silence they'd both found with each other and Chairman's purring.
"It was, wasn't it?" Magnus whispered, one warm hand lowering from the coffee mug to gently run along Church's tail as he felt the fluffy grump-monster rub against his leg in a rare affectionate action. "It was nice to not have someone banging on the door or calling you relentlessly. No attacks or emergencies... Just you and I."
Alec's fingers were traveling over an exposed thigh now, featherlight in their touch as he traced along one, two, three, four small circle bruises left from a firm grip he'd had the night before. They looked beautiful against Magnus's skin solely for the fact that he'd been the one to leave them in such an intimate moment between the two when both their guards had finally been let down. He wondered if the bite mark on his shoulder had bruised as nicely, no doubt more visible on his pale skin. He inhaled deep through his nose as he forced himself to stop thinking about last night- they had breakfast waiting.
"I want more nights like that, not even just the sex, just... Us. We can go on a date, or travel somewhere." Alec's fingers found the soft tuft of fur under Chairman's chin as the cats paws rested on his own thigh, the cat leaning heavily on him as he moved into the scritching.
"The sex is a bonus," Magnus added after another sip of the coffee, lowering it to his lap and tilting his head back against Alec's shoulder. Alec's eyes traced over the fading marks from where he'd bitten and nipped along the skin that had been exposed so perfectly whenever Magnus would throw his head back in ecstacy.
"A bonus that we don't get to actually have very often,with the interruptions, but that's just made it so much better when we do."
Magnus nodded at Alec's words and made a soft sound of approval when Alec's fingers laced with his own, giving them a slow and firm squeeze. His stomach grumbled suddenly, interrupting the serene moment and causing Alec to grin.
"We should go eat, I think you're hungry."
"Oh, you think?" Magnus teased and squeezed Alec's hand once more before begrudgingly pulling himself away from the warmth that was Alec's lean body. "Lead the way, Mr. Lightwood. It smells amazing out there."
Alec watched Magnus's body move away and couldn't help but smile, his feet soon shuffling as he stood and moved towards the lithe figure in front of him, lips planting in a brief kiss against Magnus's collarbone, a dark hickey already occupying the space.
"Hopefully it tastes as good, I tried something from that book you have in the kitchen."
"Oh did you? Experimenting, I see. Hopefully you're not like Izzy when she experiments and we don't die..."
"Hey! Shut up, I'm not that bad!"
"Make me~" Magnus mused amidst Alec's laughter as the two moved hand in hand into the kitchen to enjoy the rest of their day together.
