Alec knew that the kiss was important. He had done it in front of what basically was his entire world. Every Shadowhunter in Idris had seen it or had heard of it... well, every one of them that was curious about one barely of age Nephilim had done. But meaning was tricky with Magnus sometimes. He was older than Alec had first realized and sometimes it seemed like Magnus had seen and done everything possible.
The idea that he was the first to show Magnus how important and loved he was... that was a concept that Alec was only starting to comprehend. Humming softly as Magnus kissed his neck, he paused for a moment, trying to explain what he had thought. "I knew it was special, but I didn't know..." Laughing softly, he gave up on trying to find the words for something that was a jumble of emotion. "I like knowing that it meant so much to you." That he meant so much to Magnus.
Meeting those golden golden eyes, he began to gently play with the hair at the back of Magnus' neck. Magnus' words probably would have seen silly in any other context, but Alec knew they were heartfelt. Magnus wasn't a Shadowhunter but he still fought beside them. All because of Alec. And he'd fought harder during the battle because he needed to protect Magnus so they both could go home safe.
"Being scared and still fighting makes you a hero, Magnus. I don't like fighting, but I need to protect the ones I love. I fought harder with you beside me because I wasn't going to lose you." Tipping his head, he kissed his love gently. "Even without the rune, you make me better."
Smiling at Magnus wanting to know what had made him fall for him, Alec tried to think of the one moment, then realized it'd been dozens of things that had caused him to give Magnus his heart. The way Magnus looked at him when they'd first met. Magnus staying with him after healing him so he wasn't alone. How Magnus hadn't laugh when Alec didn't know how to ask someone out and not commenting how he hadn't known how to act on a date. All that and more. "Everything about you swept me off my feet."
Closing his eyes as his boyfriend's fingers brushed through his hair, he nipped at Magnus' lips. "I felt that too. We can try it again and see if it works." He couldn't think of any other way to learn about the new magic Clary had created.
That shiver caused him to grin against Magnus' neck before kissing that spot again, happiness banishing any thoughts that didn't focus on his love. "I love you, Magnus Bane."
