Loft Key

me and @dadddarioomg wanted to kill our friends and this was the outcome

pairing: Magnus Bane & Alec Lightwood

summary:  magnus and alec are tired of waking up without each other. they just miss each another. and all alec has is this loft key that magnus gave him.

read it on AO3 !

Alec couldn’t remember what it was like not waking up alone. He hadn’t slept by himself since he started dating Magnus, and now it’s been too long and way too many days. Every morning he rolls over in his bed at the Institute, hoping that everything that had happened four days ago was just a dream, but just like every other morning, he’s met with the cold sheets on the side of the bed where Magnus should be. And he can’t get up, like he physically cannot pull himself out of bed because he doesn’t have his beautiful boyfriend to wake up to, he doesn’t wake up to Magnus teasing him every morning. It makes his heart hurt, it aches inside of his chest, because all he can think about is the countless mornings that they’ve shared. Where they would both wake up, smiles on their faces and teasing words being thrown at one another.

Now all he has is Jace knocking at his door, telling him for the fourth morning in a row that he just has to get out of bed. He knows he has duties, he knows he’s the head of the institute, and he can’t abandon any of his duties just because he’s heartbroken. But it still hurts to get out of bed and pick up the clothes that Isabelle had laid out for him the night before. She had chosen clothes that Magnus loved though; there was the shirt that Magnus always complimented him on, the jeans he wore the night of their first date, the same silly shoes he wears 24/7 that Magnus teases him about all the time. He’s glad though, he’s glad that Isabelle knew exactly what to pick out for him. He needed to feel close to Magnus, now more than ever, and having the clothes that reminded him of Magnus was helping him.

The loft key is the only thing that actually belonged to Magnus before it was his though, and every morning since that night, he had picked it up off of his bedside table and put it into his front pocket. The key, the simple, tiny, golden key, got him through his days. It was the only thing that kept him sane.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It’s been four days now, since they’ve slept in the same bed.  It’s been getting harder and harder. The first day was definitely the hardest, for both of them, but the other days were just painful to endure.

Every morning Magnus had to drag himself out of bed, use his magic to apply his usual makeup, but  he was applying much more to disguise the bags underneath his eyes. He hadn’t slept but maybe four hours altogether in the past four days. He never knew that giving his heart to someone else would end up with him, the High Warlock of Brooklyn, not being able to function properly. He couldn’t sleep, or eat, or breathe. He drank, a lot. He spent the majority of his days drinking. It hurt his heart in his chest to think of Alec, he couldn’t even imagine how he was doing. He didn’t want to. He didn’t have any desire to see the hurt that he had brought upon the love of his life. He doesn’t want to imagine how Alec was doing now, without him. He knew Alec was upset, he had seen it in the tears that welled up in his eyes whenever he stepped into the elevator four days ago. He had caused Alec to cry. Alec; the strong, stoic man who never shed a tear. He was the reason that Alec was hurting, and that broke his heart into a million pieces.

He never wanted to see Alec like this. He had never wanted to cause him any pain; he never wanted to see Alec in pain. He tried to block the image out of his mind, but every time he tried to sleep, whenever he closed his eyes, he saw the same image of Alec looking like he was about to cry.

Magnus tried to distract himself, he looked at pictures in his phone of the Shadowhunter. Smiling Alec, grumpy Alec, nothing that resembled sadness in any way. But it didn’t work, and he felt a tear fall from his eye. “I’m so sorry.”

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Alec just couldn’t wrap his head around the whole thing. He hadn’t done anything wrong, at least he didn’t think so. Magnus has said that he loved him, so many times, but Magnus left. While he understood the words Magnus had said to him that night, he didn’t understand why Magnus had told him that he loved him if he was just going to leave.

He hadn’t seen Magnus, he hadn’t spoken to Magnus, and all he had was that one loft key and the pictures of Magnus in his phone. The pictures he had taken of Magnus smiling made his lips quirk up a bit into a small smile, the grumpy pictures of Magnus made his giggle despite the tears streaming down his face. He loves Magnus. He loves him with his whole being, his heart and soul.

And even though Magnus had walked away, Alec knew that he would love the man forever, even if Magnus decided not to come back to him. He would love Magnus with his whole heart as long as he lived, no matter what. He knew that Magnus would love him in the same way though, he trusted the man when those three words came from his mouth whenever they were together. But it still hurt. They haven’t talked, they haven’t seen each other. He can tell that Jace and Izzy try not to mention Magnus around him. Alec looked like he he would break at any moment, but he was trying so hard not to. He’s the head of the Institute. He had to be strong. He has to fight.

Nobody called him Alexander, and when anyone did, he pushed back tears and let out a desperate “Don’t. Don’t call me that.” Only one person could call him by his full first name, and that one person wasn’t around. He only wanted Magnus to call him by that name, so when anyone else did, he gripped the loft key a little bit tighter in his fist, so tight that he was afraid the key might break.  He tried holding himself together, he really did. He was a leader. He couldn’t let anyone see him like this. Only Magnus has seen him so broken before, not his siblings, nor his parents. Only Magnus. Magnus has the capability to make Alec feel good and happy, but right now he feels like shit. Trying to get his work done. He trains, harder and harder as each day passes by, he’s also more hard on himself. “If I hadn’t lied to Magnus, he’d still be here with me,” another punch to his gut, “Maybe none of this would have happened if I had been honest.” He hits the punching bag harder and harder until his knuckles are bleeding and sweat is gathering in bead s on his forehead.

When he’s tired of beathing himself up, physically and emotionally, he says goodnight to Izzy, Clary, and Jace. And he goes back to his cold, empty bed.

He doesn’t like it here anymore. He called the Institute his home for more than twenty years, but in the past few months, home had become something different, it held a different meaning. Home had become a place so vibrant and colorful, a place that was always changing, looking slightly different whenever he came back from work. Home had soft, smooth, black hair, that constantly had different colored streaks in it. Home had eyes that were golden, flecked with soft yellow spots, but home sometimes would glamour the cat eyes away, replacing them with eyes dark enough to be black.  Home wore colorful clothes, and leather pants, and had so many different outfits in his closet. Home’s voice sounded like honey whenever he spoke, and when home laughed, the sound lit up Alec’s entire life. Home smelled like sandalwood. Home was Magnus, Magnus held Alec’s heart and made Alec feel safer than he’d ever felt inside the walls of the Institute. And he missed home, he missed his boyfriend holding him tight in his arms. He missed kissing Magnus’ forehead whenever he came home from a long day at the institute. He missed the smell of Magnus, he missed the soft, silk sheets that Magnus was constantly changing. He even missed the pile of clutter in the corner of Magnus’ room. He didn’t mind that Magnus was a mess sometimes, he loves him for it. He would love Magnus no matter what.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

One day, Alec has had enough of this. He can’t do it anymore, he can’t. He feels like he’s going crazy. Without thinking, he calls up Magnus and the phone rings, and rings, and rings. Nobody picks up. He starts to leave voice messages.

“Magnus please. I want to talk to you. I miss you so much. I can’t do this anymore. Please. What happened to “I’m all for effort”?”

He leaves even more messages as the days without Magnus pass by, slowly.

“Magnus,  you said not to push you away when things get crazy, but you’re pushing me away and I can’t deal with it anymore. I can’t sleep, I can’t eat, I-“

His voice fell quiet for a moment before he spoke up again, his voice soft, “I miss you. I can’t live without you. I love-“ Beep.

The phone beeped in his ear, signaling the message was cut short. He missed Magnus. He loved him. And this was probably the twentieth message he had sent.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Magnus hears the messages that Alec is sending him, he listens to them on repeat. He cries, and he drinks, and he cries even more. He has his people to protect, what he has done was for everyone’s well-being, but he hurt Alec in the process. He should talk to Alec, he really should. So he takes a deep breath, typing out the message that he had been wanting to send for days, but he takes a moment to send it, nervous of the outcome. He finally sends it, after reading over it nearly thirty times. Meet me at the loft. After he sends it, he takes a deep breath. He needs to explain. It might end up in them fighting or arguing, but he needs to talk to Alec, he needs to hear his voice.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Alec feels his phone buzz against his thigh and he wastes no time in pulling it out of his front pocket.  Every time he had felt his phone buzz in the past few days, he had been eager to see if it was Magnus. This time it was. He read over Magnus’ text too many times to count, and within the next two minutes, he had put Jace in charge and was headed for the loft.

He didn’t know what he was going to say, or what Magnus would say, but all he knew was that Magnus wanted to see him. He definitely wasn’t going to turn that request down. Alec literally ran to the loft, not walked, but ran. All that he was thinking about was Magnus, Magnus is on his fucking mind, and when he gets close to Magnus’ loft, he stands and looks at the building for a few moments before walking in. “Okay Alec, you can do it. Go in.” And he does. He walks through the doors to the building and finds himself in front of Magnus’ door, his hand heavy when he knocks.

Magnus opens the door. When he does, Alec takes a good look at him and he feels sad. He never wanted Magnus to feel sad, and he can see the bags under his eyes. He can tell that the man in front of him hasn’t slept. Without thinking, he reaches his arms out and pulls Magnus in for a hug, a big crushing hug. “I missed you so much.”

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After Magnus had opened the door, he took a good, long look at Alec. The Shadowhunter looked exhausted, his hair was a mess, he looked as if he hadn’t slept in days, and Magnus could relate to that. He hadn’t realized how much he depended on Alec to sleep at night. But all his thoughts were thrown out the window when Alec wrapped his arms around him in a hug, a big hug that could literally squeeze the life out of Magnus, but he felt safe, he felt at home. He wrapped both of his arms around Alec, his head resting on the taller man’s shoulder, finally feeling at ease for the first time in days. He let out a few tears because, god, he missed his boyfriend. He missed holding him and breathing in the scent of him. He missed feeling safe and loved.

Alec pulled back and just looked into Magnus’ eyes. They weren’t glamoured, and damn, he looked so fucking beautiful. “I need to explain. I’m so fucking sorry for lying to you. It’s my fault that this happened. If I didn’t lie then this wouldn’t have happened. Magnus, I’m so fucking sorry. It’s been so tough without you and-“ Alec can’t even talk anymore, he needs to kiss him. So that’s what he does. He pushes Magnus up against the wall, so desperate to finally touch his boyfriend again, and he kisses him with all he has. His kiss is saying everything he can’t put into words, “I’m so fucking sorry.” “I love you so much.” “Please, let’s work this out.”

Magnus felt horrible because his beautiful Alexander was beating himself up for all of this, and while Alec shouldn’t have lied,  this wasn’t Alec’s fault. He just listened to Alec speaking and he shook his head, muttering under his breath, “You stupid Nephilim.” And when Alec pushed his back against the wall, he wasn’t complaining. He missed Alec, he missed Alec’s kisses and his lips and his soft breath in between kisses. So when Alec pushed his lips against his own, he kissed the Shadowhunter back with everything he had. He missed everything about the man in front of him, and he didn’t realize how much he actually couldn’t live without him until he was there in front of him, and he realized then that he never wanted to spend another day without Alec by his side.

Alec pulled back from the kiss and looked at Magnus, lifting his chin up, and cupping his cheeks. “Let’s work this out okay? I can’t do this without you Magnus, I love you so much. I’m all for effort.” Alec gave Magnus a smile and gave him one last peck on the lips.

ahh i'm so glad to hear you're writing! what about malec + breakfast??

i hope you like this! also thanks to @peaceandcows for editing this! 

Light comes through the curtains of Magnus’ bedroom and Magnus let's out a groan. This bed is so comfortable he doesn't want to open his eyes and wake up; he's good where he is. Magnus opens his eyes after a few seconds and looks to his right and his brows furrows. Where is Alec? Magnus thinks.

He pouts a little, did Alec leave to go to the institute already? It’s only 6 in the morning. Magnus snaps his fingers and his phone pops up in his hand. He didn't get a text from Alec saying that he was in the institute; Alec would usually text if he was.  

After pouting a little more, Magnus smelled food, and he smiles to himself. Okay, Alec is in the kitchen probably making breakfast.

“Well, I shouldn't keep my boyfriend waiting,” Magnus says to himself, still smiling.

Magnus got off the bed, snapped a robe on and walked to the kitchen. The food smelling better and better as he walked closer.

Magnus sees his boyfriend and he smiles even wider. Damn his boyfriend is beautiful, messy hair, no shirt on. It was great.

Magnus walks behind Alec, and hugs him from behind. “What a nice sight to see first thing in the morning,” Magnus mumbled and kisses Alec’s bare back and he felt Alec shiver a little bit.

Alec turns around and put his hands on Magnus’ waist. “Morning,” Alec says in a deep voice and bends down to kiss Magnus on the lips.

Magnus smiles and put his hands on Alec’s neck, kissing him back and smiling into the kiss.

“Very good morning indeed,” Magnus chuckles, “Making breakfast, I see?”

Alec turns around and Magnus saw two plates and both of them had eggs, fruits and bacon.

“Yeah, I’m just waiting till the toast comes out and breakfast will be served,” Alec replies, giving Magnus a cheeky smile and rubbing his thumb on Magnus’ waist.

“Sounds good, Alexander, but you know I have Magic, and I could conjure up some mean breakfast,” Magnus says teasingly, letting go of Alec’s hold and walking to the two plates with food in them.

“Yeah, but I don't want you to use magic, I wanted to do something special this morning,” Alec says as he walked towards Magnus and gives him a kiss on the forehead; Magnus smiles.

“Mmm, you know I love you, right?” Magnus asks, looking into Alec’s hazel eyes, getting lost in them.

A ping was heard from the toaster and Alec walked away from Magnus to get the toast; he put some butter on them and took the two plates and two cups of coffee and took them to the table, setting them down.

After doing that, Alec turns around and gave a smile towards Magnus, “I do, and I love you too and so much more.” Alec replies, taking Magnus’ hand and pulling him closer and looking into his eyes; they were unglamoured and Alec thought they were so beautiful.

“Let’s eat, I'm starving,” Magnus smirked as he let go of Alec and sat down on the chair, motioning Alec to sit beside him.

Alec rolls his eyes and sits beside Magnus.

Magnus smiled and gave a quick peck on Alec’s lips, quickly taking Alec’s piece of bacon.

“Hey! I saw that, you already have bacon!” Alec exclaimed, but he wasn't mad. He was looking at Magnus with complete adoration.

“Whoops,” Magnus gave a smirk and shrugged, still continuing to eat his bacon.

Alec shook his head and rolled his eyes, digging in into his breakfast, keeping Magnus close to his side.

malec + reading for the kids in the evening and putting them to bed

Alec is currently cuddling his husband on the couch, they were watching some movie on Netflix. Magnus’ head was on Alec’s chest and Alec was playing with Magnus’ hair.

Magnus looked at his phone and saw the time; it was 8:40 pm.

“Alexander, it’s your turn to put the kids to bed,” Magnus says in a tired voice, not bothering to move from his current position.

Alec chuckles, “Well, how can I put the kids to bed if you’re not getting off me?” Alec asks teasingly, moving around a little and hearing his husband groan.

“Hmm, not my problem you’re so comfortable,” Magnus mumbles against Alec’s chest and Alec lets out a small laugh. “Fine, I’ll get off, let me take off my make up and I’ll be come to you to help you put the kids to bed,” Magnus says as he gets up from the couch and goes to the bathroom.

Alec gets off from the couch and and walks towards Rafael and Max’s room, hearing them playing already.

Alec opens the door and sees Max entertaining his brother with magic and Alec laughs. Max has gotten so much better with using magic recently and both Magnus and Alec were so proud.

“Hey guys, sorry to interrupt but you both need to get your butts to bed, Raf you have training tomorrow and Max you have morning magic lessons,” Alec says, crossing his arms and looking at his kids.

“But dad! I was about to show Raf a cool magic trick!” Max pouts a little bit and Alec tries so hard not to give in on that pout.

“Yeah dad, please?” Rafael looks at his brother and then at his dad, pouting as well.

“No sorry, you guys can continue this tomorrow, both of you, get your butts to bed, your papa will be here soon and we’ll both read you a bedtime story, how does that sound?”

“Okay!” both said and quickly put on their pj’s and headed to their beds.

“You managed to put them in bed?” Magnus appeared and Alec turns around and takes a good look at his husband.

“Damn, you’re so beautiful,” Alec blurts out quickly and blushes when he hears his kids giggle.

“Thank you, Alexander, you don’t look so bad yourself,” Magnus says teasingly as he walks closer to Alec and gives him a quick peck on the lips. “Okay guys, who’s ready for a bedtime story?” Magnus asks.

“Me! Me!” Both of the boys yell out and Alec and Magnus chuckles.

“Okay so this is a story about a lost lamb who after a few years found his family,” Magnus starts the story.

After 15 minutes Alec feels someone nudging his shoulders and he slowly opens his eyes and Magnus is looking at him with a small smile on his face.

“They are finally asleep,” Magnus says as he takes a look at his sleeping kids and a bigger smile forming on his lips.

“Good, let’s head to bed, okay?” Alec says and takes Magnus’ hand and leads them to their bedroom.

“I love you, Alexander,” Magnus says as he gets on the bed, pulling the covers over him and waiting for his husband to join him.

Alec smiles. “I love you too, and the kids.” Alec replies as he gets the bed, leaning closer to Magnus, giving him a kiss on the forehead and pulling his husband closer to him. Drifting to sleep a few minutes after with a smile on both of their faces.

here’s a selfie bc why not

[s0ftmalec]

prompt !! malec + first time seeing magnus w/out makeup (this'll be cute pls)

Alec decided to come visit his boyfriend in his loft.  He really couldn’t be at the institute; it was hot and he felt like he couldn’t breathe.

Magnus gave the key to Alec a few weeks ago and told Alec to come whenever he wants, and Alec decided today was the day that he will finally use the loft key. He was a bit nervous; what if Magnus isn’t there? Or has someone over? Alec doesn’t want to intrude.

He’s currently standing outside of Magnus’ loft, with the key in his hand contemplating on going in or not. After thinking for a few minutes, he decided to go in.

Alec’s currently outside of Magnus’ door, with the key in his hand. Letting out a big sigh he unlocks the door and walks in.

The first thing that Alec sees is Magnus on the couch laying down playing with Chairman. He looks like he’s sleeping so he isn’t aware that Alec is here.

Magnus also looks like he isn’t wearing makeup and the sight of Magnus not wearing makeup takes Alec’s breath away. He looks beautiful.

Chairman sensed that Alec was here and got off Magnus to greet Alec, and Alec lets out chuckle kneeling down to pet the cat.

He hears Magnus let out a groan and starts to move around a little bit. Magnus opens his eyes and sees his boyfriend playing with Chairman and looking straight at him.

“Hi,” Alec says and smiles and walks towards his boyfriend.

Magnus smiles but then notices that he doesn’t have his makeup on, and immediately turns to face another direction, turning away from Alec.

“Hey, Magnus, what’s wrong?” Alec says worryingly, sitting beside Magnus and putting a hand on his arm.

“It’s stupid,” Magnus mumbles, still turned away from Alec, head down.

“I’m sure it’s not stupid,” Alec tries to reassure Magnus.

“You’re going to laugh or think that I’m a joke, but I’m not wearing makeup,” Magnus eventually says with a quiet voice.

“Okay, so? I’m sure you still look beautiful,” Alec says, rubbing his boyfriend’s arm.

Magnus sighed and turned towards his boyfriend, showing his bare face and Alec’s heart beat faster.

Alec smiled, “I was right. You still do look beautiful.”

“You don’t think i’m ugly?” Magnus asked shockingly.

Alec was taken back. Magnus ugly? No fucking way. “No, you look so good, with or without makeup. Whoever said you’re ugly without makeup, will have his ass kicked.”

Magnus deglamoured his eyes and Alec’s breath got taken away.

“You’re so fucking beautiful, Magnus,” Alec put his hand on Magnus’ cheek and leaned in kiss his boyfriend. Alec felt his boyfriend smile to the kiss.

“Thank you,” Magnus said as he pulled back with a smile and Alec let out a small chuckle and leaned in again to capture Magnus’ lips.

[vmpirekoo]

After a road trip from hell goes wrong, Alec is left stranded on the hwy with no way to get home. He's in an unfamiliar area, and everything just seems to be going wrong all at once. Thankfully, a beautiful stranger in an wild looking car decides to stop and rescue Alec from his certain death.
