Summary: 

This seems to have come out of nowhere. One moment they’re making their first tentative forays into heavy necking and light petting and suddenly Alec is talking about “the next step.”

I think we’re pole-vaulting over a few steps here, my dear.

The sudden leap shows. The energy in these kisses is all wrong. Thoroughly pleasant and full of potential, yes. Absolutely. Without a doubt. But still wrong. Not since he charged the wrong way down the aisle at his own wedding has Alec kissed Magnus like this, as though afraid that if he doesn’t keep plunging ahead, he’ll falter and turn back.

Maybe that was necessary at the wedding. For Alec to stop his life mid-course and veer off in an entirely new direction took tremendous courage and one hell of a leap of faith. Magnus knows that. He’ll be eternally grateful that the leap carried Alexander in his direction.

But sex between them shouldn’t be something Alec needs to psyche himself up for.

Summary: 

“Magnus,” Alec says softly, moving closer to him, “you have nothing to worry about. I promise.” He swallows and Magnus traces the line of Alec’s throat with his eyes. “We don’t have to do anything if you don’t want to.”

Magnus inhales. “Let’s just slow things down a moment,” he suggests, taking Alec’s hand. “We should talk.”

Summary:

Magnus trips a little over his own feet as Alec backs him further into the bedroom, making their hold on each other tighten. For a moment it’s impossible not to get lost in it, not to open his mouth for Alec’s tongue and grab at the back of his shirt, allowing Alec’s big hands to hold him steady while he kisses him deeper.

“Wait,” Magnus says and finally breaks away, the two of them still standing so close he can feel Alec’s breathing, the way it’s gone heavy. He closes his eyes, the tips of Alec’s fingers playing with the hair at the nape of his neck, and the want in his body curses the words that come next. “We should – wait.”

Summary:

Magnus can’t remember when he’s slept this well, or been this comfortable being literally wrapped up with someone in bed. Magnus spends so much time alone, and has done so for decades, that waking up with someone else feels odd.
