"Mom." Alec yells, walking in.
"Alec, honey." She says, walking out of the kitchen, drying her hands. "What's wrong?"
"Magnus is coming over and he is expecting me to cook for him."
"You can't cook."
"I know. What am I supposed to do?"
"What time is he supposed to be there?"
"Six."
"I will let you in on a little secret."
"Ok."
"When me and your dad first got married, I couldn't cook. So, for the first six months, I ordered take out and passed it off as mine while I learned to cook." She says, writing down a number. "This is their number, call them, then I will teach you to cook."
Alec looks at the paper, then grinning at maryse, he says, "thanks mom." He says, hugging her and leaves.

"Alexander." Magnus says after they eat. "That was delicious."
"Thank you." Alec says, smiling.
"I'll take our plates in the kitchen."
"Ok." Alec says as magnus kisses him on his way by.
On his way out of the kitchen, magnus takes alecs hand and pulls him to the couch. He pushes him onto the couch and straddles his hips.
As he kisses the outside of his ear, he whispers, "if you are going to pass off take out as your own, you really need to make sure you hide the containers."
