Feb. 11th, 2013 09:57 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
Fandom: The Mortal Instruments
Pairing: Magus/Alec
Prompt: Memorial
Cold wind and snow whipped around Magnus’ thin frame. The end of his neon green scarf repeatedly lifted off his neck and then settled again. Bringing a hand out of his pocket he slipped the hand under the fabric of his coat and shirt, fingertips barely brushing the edge of the puckered scar above his heart.
Each time he touched the scar he was taken back to the night of that battle. Alec’s panicked eyes when he saw they weren’t going to win this one. When Alec had swung around, an arrow notched and aimed right at Magnus. At first Magnus didn’t understand but then the arrow had slammed into him and his balance was thrown off, tipping him just enough so that he fell over the edge of the building into the river below.
Alec had saved him.
Magnus blinked slowly, his eyes burning. Looking at the little memorial he had erected for his paramour he sighed. “I never understood you Alec… We were over and yet you still gave up everything for me.” Magnus lay the white rose at the base of the memorial. “Of all the outcomes I could see…I never thought it would end this way…”
