Answer: Any and all!!!!! In case you missed it: This is the last chapter for this story in this book at least besides the epilogue which will be next.

"Feel better?" Magnus asked as he walked in and Alec was standing in a white towel, his clothes in the garbage can next to him.

"I do. Of course if I'll continue to feel this way solely depends on what you have in the purple bag." Alec raised his eyebrows.

"Don't worry. I got us some sweats to sleep in. I'll save the outfits for tomorrow." Magnus smiled and handed Alec some boxers that said What Happens in Vegas on the front and Stays in Vegas on the back in gold lettering and a pair of black sweats.

"Thank God these sweats are plain." Alec breathed a sigh of relief.

"You're welcome." Magnus smiled and strutted into the bathroom.

Alec stepped into the boxers and flinched when he saw his arms. He still couldn't exactly look at them and he wasn't sure if he ever would, but he did know that he was closer to being able to move on. He wasn't going to lie to himself and say that he was healed, but he was ready to admit that he could see a future where he was.

"Can I come out?" Magnus asked. He wanted to take more of a shower but he didn't want to be away from Alec very long so he had washed as quick as possible and hadn't even bothered with his hair.

"One sec." Alec pulled on the sweats and wished that he had a shirt.

"Oh, and I bought you a shirt to sleep in if you want. I just wasn't sure." Magnus offered as he walked out in a pair of golden sweats.

"You truly are amazing." Alec smiled gratefully and accepting the black long sleeved shirt.

"And don't get me started on how hard it was to find." Magnus chuckled. "Okay, it wasn't that hard, but still."

"Thank you." Alec kissed him without thinking then jumped back. "For everything."

"Of course," Magnus nodded his head and looked at the bed. "If you want I can sleep on the couch or something."

"It's a big bed." Alec smiled and pulled back the covers. "But if you touch any of my tattoos I'll probably cry."

"That's fair." Magnus was relieved. He waited for Alec to climb in then turned off the main light leaving only the bedside lamp on for him to use. It was still pretty early in the evening and he wasn't quite ready to fall asleep yet.

"Good night, Mags." Alec whispered as he turned to face Magnus and closed his eyes.

"Good night Alexander." Magnus's fingers itched to touch Alec's hair but instead he grabbed the remote and turned on the television.

He watched some hallmark movie that didn't have half the drama he and Alec had lived through and the characters were nearly twice their age.

He was just starting to get tired enough to sleep when he realized that he hadn't called anyone all night.

"Shit," He quietly and carefully slid out off the bed and dug his phone out of his jeans that were still crumpled on the bathroom floor.

He cringed when he saw all of the notifications. He had missed calls and text messages from practically everyone that knew him and Alec including Izzy. As he opened the messaging app he got another call. He quickly turned it to silent and answered.

"Hello."

"Oh, so you are alive. What the fuck is wrong with you? I could kill you right now! Where is Alec? I need to talk to him! I'm on my way!" Jace shouted into the phone so loudly that Magnus had to hold it away at arm's length and it still hurt his ears.

"Jace." Magnus said trying to cut through his shouting that was still going on. "Jace!"

"Don't Jace me." Jace demanded then continued shouting.

"Jace, calm the fuck down!" Magnus yelled and the line went silent. "Thank you."

"Now, I'm sorry that I forgot to call you back until now but we've been busy. He's doing okay, really. I promise you, your friend is going to be okay. And don't come here. We'll come back tomorrow night, I promise." Magnus said in a calmer voice.

"But, I need to see him." Jace said.

"Not yet." Magnus whispered and stifled a yawn.

"Clary, talk to him." Jace said then Magnus heard some shuffling.

"Magnus, are you sure you don't want us there?" Clary asked and he heard a slapping sound then Jace complaining.

"Yes, I'll call when we leave tomorrow.

"Fine, but Magnus, if you don't come back tomorrow then we're all coming. And I told Izzy-"

"Dammit Clary." Magnus ran his fingers through his hair.

"Don't worry, she only knows what Jace does." She said.

"Fine. How is she handling it?"

"How do you think I'm handling it?" Izzy yelled at the phone.

"Right, she's driving." Clary admitted.

"I can't believe you weren't going to tell me. You are a bastard. He's my damn brother." Izzy said angrily.

"Iz, I'm sorry." Magnus frowned and bit his lip.

"Damn right you are." Izzy said.

"Iz, turn here." Clary said. "Magnus, you tell us if anything changes, the second it does."

"I will." Magnus promised and turned off his phone thankful that he had been able to charge it at the tattoo shop.

When he walked out of the bathroom he stood frozen as he watched Alec sleep. He looked so peaceful and young. It was like none of this had ever happened. Magnus wished that he could have done more than just cover up the scars, but he knew he had done the best he could.
He slid into the bed and gently wrapped his arm over Alec's waist before kissing his cheek.

"Good night, my beautiful warrior." Magnus whispered and flipped off the light before letting himself fall asleep with Alec in his arms.
