      Jonathan looks over at the other. exhaustion seems to seep from every pore of his body, & he knows that sleep isn’t something that has come easily to either of them as of late, but still.... ‘ I missed you, too, ’ he says finally, moving out of the doorway & guiding Alec inside. Valentine’s apartment is... well. it’s always been a thing of wonder for him, but ever since he had parked it, so to speak, in the city, he’s been content not to move her. without his runes now, he wasn’t even sure if he could without repercussions. ‘ I was about to make dinner. join me? how have things been? how’s the Institute? ’

                                          As soon as the arms were down, Jace was kissing him, body pressing down on his. and shaking his head. “Missed you... Nothing’s wrong.” That wasn’t exactly true, but Jace let the bond open as well, so Alec knew he just didn’t want to talk about it right now. He kissed his face and lied down besides him, one arm around him to pull him close and kiss his neck. “Sorry about this.” He said, leaning over him and turning off the bed lamp. “We can go back to sleep, can I just stay here?” Asks softly, caressing his face.

He was having nightmares again, and back when he was a kid, and had just watched his father be murdered, or so he’d thought, the only thing that had helped had been Alec. Alec would come to his room then, when Jace was trashing and making sounds, and he would sit down besides him on the bed until he calmed down. Eventually, it turned into lying down with him, and then they’d started doing that most nights, coming to each other, to sleep, until Jace started sleeping through the night. And once puberty hit...

"Don't worry yourself about that." It was nothing to him and whatever had happened to Alexander was far more important to him. Something told him that this wouldn't be the first time one of them ended up being late for a date and he knew it wouldn't be the last. In his mind there was no point in being upset over this and somehow he would get that through to Alexander.

He also needed to know just what it was that had caused this. Something told him it had to do with his father and the fact that he was the eldest son. Having spent enough time around nephilim he knew just what was expected of them. But he wasn't going to assume anything. This was something that Alexander needed to tell him on his own and it would be something that the two of them dealt with together. Though, Magnus did prefer some place warmer and not there in the middle of the park with the snow falling around them. It had meant to be their meeting place so he could portal them to where he'd planned dinner for them. But seeing the way Alexander looked he knew that it was better for them to talk first and then figure out just where they would end up going for dinner. Maybe he should portal them back to his loft. At least there it would be warm and they could talk without worrying about anything.

"Maybe we could talk about this at the loft. If you're up to taking a portal there." He wouldn't push him. All of this would be on his terms and when he was ready for it. A simple spell would keep them warm, of course, but again it wasn't something he wanted to use with the mundanes there in the park. Given the fact that his boyfriend was the head of the New York Institute, he knew it wouldn't be wise to flaunt his powers like that. Though Magnus knew if they were going to stay out there much longer he wouldn't care about the Accords. Their warmth was more important than their stupid rules. "Or I could make it so we don't freeze out here and you can tell me what happened to make you late."

“Well for one I’m trying to line up a shot and your in the way, that’s what’s bothering me right now Izzy.” He wasn’t about to ease the bow string back or start to slowly titling his bow down. No he just wanted to practice with his arrows and to just think before he had to face his sister and her questions. “Iz I just want some time to think before I go around answering 20 different questions.”

She wasn’t about to move. Not when he was being too stubborn to admit something was wrong. However, hearing his answer, she quirked an eyebrow at him, before taking a deliberate step aside. 

He wasn’t going to push the other anymore. he knew that just by asking what the other was thinking right then might have been a step over some kind of line Jonathan had. “I’m sorry I asked.” It said softly and quietly before he turns back to the paper and books that took up his desk. Though sometime he just wondered what Jon was thinking of when he was staring off into space. He look across at his coffee mug and then stood up taking the mug with. “I’m gonna go get more coffee, you want anything?” 

"In your line of work I'm sure the most honest you've ever met were the fair folk." He knew they couldn't lie and while they constantly played with the truth in the end they tended to be honest. Anyone else and lies were common place. Even the Clave constantly lied; he'd been on the receiving end far too many times. It was why he'd kept his distance from them and any nephilim. That and the fact that most of them looked down on downworlders. He saw no point in keeping their company. Until Alexander came into his life. Magnus was still figuring out just what was going on between them and why the other kept constantly coming to see him. Maybe in time he would. Until then, he would enjoy seeing how the other reacted to something as simple as a compliment.

"And I wouldn't say I'm honest, Alexander. I just know when to be truthful and when not to be."
