But that would have to wait until Magnus finished his call, so Alec settled down against the back of the couch and watched his boyfriend move across the loft. He liked this side of Magnus. Dressed to the nines still from their date, talking about goblin spit and sheep guts, while sipping expensive wine.
Or:
Magnus has to interrupt a date to help a young Warlock, and Alec distracts himself with Magnus’ everything.
Magnus braced his hands on the counter in front of him and closed his eyes for a second, taking a deep breath. Just because he was gorgeous and sweet and the Chairman liked him did not mean that Magnus needed to get ahead of himself. Plenty of people were endearingly kind and liked by animals. It shouldn’t be making his heart beat double time in his chest.

It’s been a long hard season of training. Ever since Alec because Captain of his house Quidditch team, he’s been determined to take the Cup home. Now he’s done it, there’s only one way he’s interested in celebrating.
aka. magnus’ patience with his boyfriend is rewarded
Hogwarts is known as a great school, but when the Lightwoods lives are uprooted by their move to England and half of the student body hate their family, it can be a little hard to fit in.
A story about Ministry politics, family, friendship, and of course, budding romance.
Alec usually hates having to chaperone the students on Hogsmeade weekends even if Isabelle thinks he needs to get out the castle more. But with a new Bartender at the Three Broomsticks maybe it isn’t that bad after all…
Magnus Bane has everything he could have hoped for: a job at Hogwarts, a chaotic made-up family that he loves more than anything and the freedom of doing what he wants whenever he wants.
When his friends manage to drag him to a Quidditch game, he doesn’t expect it to change his life. For better or worse.
They call themselves the Children of Merlin and they are going to make his life a living hell.
