This, finally, is the final chapter, marking the end of this story on its one year anniversary from starting. (I know, time flies!) I hope you have all enjoyed it - thanks to everybody who has spurred me on with comments and reviews - and that it has given everybody pleasant sugar-shocks with all its fluff.

Further thanks to my beta - Honestlydarkprincess - and I hope to see you all again in my other Shadowhunters stories. I have a couple of other finished Malec stories (All my Shadowhunters stories are Malec stories, come to think of it), and my other Malec longrunner "I'd Love You Either Way", is still ongoing.

Finally, no copyright infringement is intended. This story is intended only to fluff your lives a tiny bit, and nothing else.

Once again, Alec woke to warmth and sunshine. He smiled for himself, slowly waking up, arching into Magnus and recieving a warm, happy laughter in responce. He couldn't help but blush slightly thinking about last night... but he knew now that Magnus would only find that endearing. He wasn't worrying any more.

It has been wonderful, and not at all as nervous as he had been afraid of. Probably just because it was Magnus, he was sure of that. He had to ask though, so he did. "Was it any good? For you, I mean?" He looked up, meeting Magnus' warm, loving (the word had been said last night, repeatedly, and he wasn't giving it up now!) unglamoured cat-eyes, finding only happiness there.

Magnus smiled, in that special way reserved only for them, nodding. "It was perfect, Alexander." He made his name sound like a prayer. "I know I wasn't, you know, very... ehrm... proactive?" Magnus actually looked a bit embaressed in responce to that, though Alec couldn't imagine why.

"I know I didn't really let you get a move in edgewise, Alexander, but it was your first time and well... you were just making such pretty sounds I couldn't help myself. I know it was a bit selfish." Alec had (after blinking several times, speechless) to snort at that. Only Magnus.

"Selfish? Or maybe exactly the opposite?" He finally suggested, cuddling up to his boyfriend. Magnus was being silly, but he loved him anyway. Magnus chuckled, cuddling right back. "Yes, of course! Because how nice it was seeing you like that aside, Alexander, making my boyfriend's first time a good experience instead of awkward or traumatic won't benefit me at all!" "Just be silent," Alec muttered, closing his eyes again against Magnus' neck. Okay, so maybe Magnus wasn't being that silly after all, but that didn't change anything.

"It was perfect, Alexander," Magnus mumbled into his hair, and Alec was happy, because he knew it was the truth. It had been prefect, together, and they were perfect.

He had Magnus, and that was all that mattered to him. Him, and his family. Including his fantastic, non-wife partner. They were lying there silently for a long while, just cuddling and drifting, Alec half asleep and Magnus just savouring the feeling of the shadowhunter, his shadowhunter, in his arms.

There would always be another fight, but they would fight them together. Always. Even now, there'd be politics and conflicts, but they'd sort all that out. They loved one another, and the rest... well, Lydia would manage that.
