As Alec and Magnus set foot outside Alec smile winden.

He wanted to run....run on the cold white ground as the freezing air hitted him on the face, even if it was cold he somehow felt warm inside.
He used to transform every time it was snowing and run around, deep into the forest so no one can see him.
He didnt know where he was going but he really didn't care.
When he ran to his wolf form he just felt... Free.

"Do you want to walk around?"
Magnus offered.

"Sure ....."
Alec said and the couple started walking while holding hands.

"How big is this place?"
Alec asked looking around.
It was indeed giangentic.
You couldn't see the begging nor the ending of the castle. You couldnt even see the barriers that were between the castle and the near village.... You couldn't see nothing than a castle and its yard.

"It's pretty big."
Said Magnus smugly.

" You live here only with Caterina, Raphael, Madzie and Seldom?"
Alec asked.

"It's Simon, but yea. It's only the five of us here. But now that you came, we have become six."
Said Magnus with a warm smile.

Alec nodded while looking around.
Everything had turned white from the snow. It gave a free feeling.

"So tell me Alexander. What did you used to do when it was snowing."
Magnus said and looked at Alec.
Magnus knew Alec liked it when it was snowing. He could tell by his expressions, his eyes will glow in excitement when he will looking outside. At the white scenery.

"Hmmm.... When I was a kid, me and my siblings used to do all the usual stuff kids do. Build a snowman, throw each other snowballs and..... Ice-skate."
Alec said remembering the habit he has to ice skate whenever it is possible.

Magnus looked surprised.
"Ice skating ?"

"Yes. Me and my siblings will ice skate at a lake that is between the forest and the village."
Said Alec.

Magnus seemed thoughtful.
"What?"
Alec asked Magnus and was about to ask him again when Magnus's face lit up with excitement.

"Follow me."
Said Magnus and started dragging Alec to a diraction.

"Where are we going?"
Alec asked.

"You will see."
Was the only thing Magnus said.

They were walking almost ten minutes when Magnus finally stopped to a big empty scenery.

"Emmm... There is nothing here."
Alec protested.

Magnus holded his arm and cold air washed them. The air pulled back the snow and revealed a frozen lake.

Alec's mouth slightly opened.
Magnus chuckled and kissed Alec on the chick.

"Show me your moves."
Magnus demanded and dragged Alec closer to the lake.

"First of, I don't have any special moves. Second, how am I going to ice skate without the proper shoes?"
Alec said and looked at Magnus.

Magnus smirked and snapped his fingers. Alec was now wearing black ice skating shoes.

"...... I should have guessed that. "

" You really should have. "

" But, what about you? "

" Me? "
Magnus asked and frown his eyebrows.

"Yea you. Arent you going to join me?"
Alec asked with a small smile as he stepped on the frozen lake.

"I... I haven't done such a thing.... No I actually did once but it was centuries ago."
Magnus said.

Alec moved backwards to be able to face Magnus.
"How so?"

"Well. I was terrible and I didn't bother to try again."
Said Magnus looking at Alec.

"Then it's time for you to try."
Said Alec and offered a hand to Magnus.

Magnus smiled.
He snapped his fingers and made himself wear some purple with black Glitter ice skating shoes.

He took a step forward and grabbed Alec's hand.
Alec was making sure to be ready in case Magnus fall.
Alec slowly dragged Magnus toward the center of the lake.
Not right at the center but close enough.

Magnus didn't seem to be so bad. In fact he looked pretty stable.
So Alec let go and he moved backwards smoothly, still facing Magnus.

Magnus stopped moving and looked at Alec confused.
"Why did you let me go?"

"Well, you seem to be pretty good actually..... Wait.... You aren't using your magic are you?!"
Alec said and moved closer to Magnus.

"Maaaaybee...."
Magnus said innocently.

Alec rolled his eyes but he had a small smile on his face.
Magnus then grabbed Alec hand again.
"Let's move now shall we?"

Alec dragged slowly Magnus around the lake it was pretty calm.

"So tell me Alexander. How long have you been ice skating?"

"Well, pretty long. Izzy started at nine and she kinda dragged me with her.
It wasn't long until Jace gave in to Izzy's pressure for him to also join.
They have stopped after they turned 14 but I didn't."
Alec said a little sadly.

"Why did they stopped?"
Magnus asked, noticing his mates sad expression.

"Well... Jace found his mate and he spend most of the time with her.
Izzy hadn't found her mate and still hasn't but she gained a lot of friends.
She started spending time with them and she hadn't much time for me....."
Said Alec as he was smoothly moving around Magnus.

"Still...."
Said Magnus trying to argue at his mate's sister actions.

"No Magnus. It's Okey. After all I always go to missions. It's only natural for her to spend more time with other people."
Said Alec and stopped in front of Magnus.

Magnus nodded, decided not to continue.
Alec then grabbed both Magnus's hands and started dragging him to the middle of the lake.

" What if the ice break? "
Magnus asked.

" The lake is frozen enough to hold us both."
Alec said, still dragging Magnus.

"How can you possible know that?"
Magnus said not really nervous nor scared. He knew if something happened he could always use his Magic.

"Well, because of the color of the lake."
Alec said.

Magnus laughed at that.
It was such a cute childish thought.
"Did you figured this little trick by yourself?"

"Maybe...."
Alec said and ducked his head down with a small smile.
Magnus ran his hand through Alec's hair while smiling.
But then the smile disappeared and panic expression took place.
"You didn't fall in the lake did you!?"

Alec laughed at that.
"Well... Once."
Magnus let out a gasp.
"But it wasn't my fault."
Alec added quickly.
Magnus frown his eyebrows.

"Me and my sister had close ten years old and decided to go ice skating. We went to the usual lake but you see... It wasn't completely frozen.
I told her not to ice skate as the color of the lake wasn't pale enough, but she ignored me.
She wanted to prove that I was wrong.
So as I was making the body for the snowman I heard a scream.
Izzy had fallen in the lake. "

Magnus was completely silent.
It was like he was watching an intense scent of a movie.

" I didn't waist a minute and jump in the lake. As Izzy was much smaller than me, It was very easy to get us both out.
After some couches Izzy was fine... But cold. So I lifted her up and carried her to the house."
Alec finished.

"What about you?"
Magnus asked still with a little panic and a lot consern.

"Oh.... I got yelled at and then got sick.
But Its Okey... It could have been worst."
Alec said and looked at Magnus.
He was socked to see Magnus glaring at him.

"Never. Ever. Say that it's Okey. It's not! You did nothing wrong. The only thing you did is to risk your life to save your little sister. Your parents should be proud to have raised such a good big bother."

Alec stayed still. No one EVER had said that it was not his fault.
His parents always accusing him, especially Robert, and some times even his siblings but for stupid things, which were more like a joke but still....
But there was not even one time that some said You did nothing wrong.
Alec hadn't realized the tears falling down.
Magnus quickly turned from pissed to consered and regretful.

"I am sorry love. I didn't want to be mean its just -"
"No."
Alec interrupted Magnus.

Magnus looked at Alec confused.
"Don't apologize..... I.... It's just.... No one has said that to me."
Alec said.

".... That it's not Okey?"
Said Magnus slowly still confused.

"No.... That it's not my fault....
My mom will always accuse me if any of my sibling did something bad or get hurt, my sibling sometimes accuse me for stupid things like why Jace's mate is scared to come home when I am here. And Robert..... He always accused me from everything. "
Said Alec and wiped his tears.

Magnus felt his blood boil.
How can these people traite his Alexander like that!?
He made a note to not make it easy for Alec's family when he is around.... If he ever see them....

"Magnus?"
Alec interrupted Magnus's thoughts.

Magnus shaked his head.
"Yea Alexander?"

"......Are you still mad at me?"
Alec said with a little hesitation.

Magnus soften.
"How can I be?"
Magnus said and leaned to kiss Alec.
He was surprised to feel Alec lean too and give him a small peck on the lips.
Alec will usually stay still while Magnus do all the job. But this time is different. Because Alec was the one who made the first step.

Magnus is happy that Alec was getting used to it.... He wonders when are they going to move on the sloppy passionate kisses. But at the same he wasn't.... The soft slow pecks on the lips had their own magic that Magnus couldn't get enough of.

They both smiled like idiots while staring at each other's eyes.
And they would stay like that forever if there wasn't a person clearing his throught, making both come back from their own world to reality.

"Caterina?"
Magnus said, slightly annoyed.

"Unkle Alec!"
Madzie yelled excitedly while waving her arm behind Cat.

Alec grabbed Magnus's arm and dragged both of the back to the snowy floor.

Magnus snapped his fingers to make their shoes go back to how they were.

Madzie didn't waist any time and grabbed Alec's hand and dragged him away.
"Let's build a snowman!"
She said excitedly.
Alec smiled at the small girl's excitement and followed her nevertheless.

Magnus sat at the bench with Caterina that was near to where Alec and Madzie were building the snowman.

It was comfortable silence when Caterina said.
" I changed my mind about the Lightwood boy."

Magnus looked at her with a raised eyebrow and said with a sarcastic tone.
"What the sudden change of mind?"
Caterina huffed as a smile spread across her face.

"I saw you two from the window."

"Emm... Should I be consered?"
Magnus asked jokingly .

Caterina turned and faced Magnus.
"No!"
Caterina said and rolled her eyes.

"It's just.... I saw you two and...you two looked happy."
Said Caterina happy.
"I have never seen your face so lit up. Not even with Cammile."
Caterina added.

"Why did you had to mention her?"
Magnus said annoyed.
He just can't get over the fact that she managed to manipulate him.
Who?
Magnus Bane. One of the most powerful and oldest Worlocks ever.
He sigh at the thought.

Caterina rolled her eyes still with a smile.
"Sorry sorry."
She said sarcastically.

Magnus then turned to Alec and Madzie.
They had.... Mostly Alec.... Had build a pretty big snowman.

It was the same height as Caterina and she was 1,70 m.
"Wow.... Thats a tall snowman."
Caterina said, looking the snowman up and down.

"What to say. Madzie is very skillful."
Alec said and looked at Madzie with a smile.
Madzie looked so happy and proud.
Magnus made his way towards Alec and wrapped his arms around Alec's waist.
Magnus then kissed Alec on the chick and whispered "Good Job love."
Alec just chuckled.

Madzie look socked.
"Is something wrong Madzie?"
Caterina asked worried.
"What is your releshionship with Unkle Alec, Unkle Magnus?"
She said and looked between the two man. She thought they were friends or something. But she godamn knew that friends don't act like that.

Alec looked at Magnus and Magnus at Alec serious. Then they both looked at Madzie with a smile and said :

"We are are mates."
