[ Ever since a young age, Alec had almost blindly followed the instructions given to him, so fiercely dedicated to live up to certain expectations. But he never had, always falling just a little short of finding the kind of esteem Jace grasped onto so easily. It only made him work harder, though, determined to have more of an influence. Not because he thought he deserved it, more like he had open eyes to see the truth of things. ]

I never want that to change. You talk to me anytime you need to even if you don't think I'll like hearing it, okay?

[ There were so many things that could tear them apart and it scared him. Walking over to Magnus, he kissed the top of his head. ]

Still want that bath?

[fibbery]

[ when alec kissed his head and magnus leaned against him for a moment, placing himself against his chest as if they were sharing a hug. just a moment, because he wants to find alec's eyes again to reaffirm what they're saying. to promise that he feels the same, and hears alec's words well. ]

I will. [ his serious expression turns soft again, and he cups alec's cheek. ] Oh, my sweet Alexander.

[ the smile turns cheeky. ]

I'm never not up for a bath.

[ The words were a promise and one Alec did not intend to ever break. There were too many uncertain things in life and he did not want their relationship to become yet another one.

Laughing, he nodded his head. ]

I had a feeling you would say that.

[ Grabbing for the bag, he reached for Magnus' hand to bring them to the bathroom and begin with preparations there. ]

Back to taking our minds off things. Sorry I went there again. I just - have a hard time letting it go.

[ magnus helped alec get the bath ready, starting to run the water at the perfect temperature with the wave of his hand, letting it fill up. ]

It's okay. I understand.

[ he's had a hard time letting it go, too. but right now he wants to focus on the good, healing things in his life. like alec. like a bath. like alec in the bath with him.

magnus starts undoing the buttons of alec's shirt. ]

If you need to talk, we can talk.

[ Or course, Magnus could just wave his hand to make the tub begin to fill with water. Sometimes the whole magic thing still took him by surprise but he gave a slow smile all the same. It came in very handy sometimes. ]

I know. I just didn't want to bring it up again so soon. I think I've said all I need to say.

[ Especially for that night. They fled all the way to Paris for distance from it. Reaching out, he started trying to undo Magnus' buttons and zippers. ]

You wear such complicated things.
