ok, so this isn't my 1st story, but i think it's my best. the other's are-in my opinion-not that great. feel free to read them though! :D anyhow here's a basic summary:
Once again their love is tested. But this time, nothing is as it seems. After Clary becomes pregnant and Jace doesn't want it, she leaves. Two years later, what happens when our favorite angel children meet up once again. And what's this about 4 children?
"Love is about trusting your feelings and taking chances, losing and finding happiness, appreciating the memories, learning from the past, and realizing that people change."
I use to believe that love could overcome anything. Death, secrets, truths...But it can't. When it comes down to it, you're all alone in this world. At least, that's how it is for me.
"Jace, you give me an answer right now. No, you pick right now what you're going to do."
"We're too young Clary. Hell, you're just 17!"
That was all I needed to hear. "Good-bye Jace. Just remember that you chose this. But don't worry, I'm not going to bother you anymore. Forget I ever even existed. That's what I'm doing." I turned from him and began to walk towards the stairs.
His voice followed me. It was full of clarity, sarcasm, and confidence. With just the slightest hint of uncertainty and cocky-ness. "You won't leave. You have no where to stay. And you love me too much to do something like that to me."
I just walked up the stairs and directly to my room. I locked the door, but no rune. Why should I when I'd just be leaving threw a portal? I packed just a duffel bag and a book bag full of clothes and other essentials that I'd need. Right before I was about to leave, I wrote Jace a note.
Dear Jace,
I have to say this. As much as I want to just leave, I can't
before I tell you this. I'm not the same girl you met at
Pandemonium. I'm stronger and wiser than I was back
then. And I am leaving. All because you chose it.
Yes, I told you to chose, and I might've just killed my heart,
but at least I'm free now. I'll find a place to live. Somewhere
far away from New York. From all the reminders that no one
really cares about me:loves me. So now, this note's come to
an end, just like us.
And I only have a few more things to tell you. Don't try
to find me. Even if you think you want to see me again,
you'll never find me. Because, in all honesty, you're the
one who made me leave.
By the way, I get to finally be the one who gets
to tell you that you're wrong. I'm leaving and not coming
back. I love you-some how, unbelievably I still do with all my
abused and broken heart-but it doesn't change a thing. And as
much as I want to be able to forget about you-like you'll most
likely do about me-I can't.
You're not the one who'll have to tell their child
that their other parent doesn't want you. That wanted to
have you aborted. But when my child gets older and asks me about
where their father is, I just pray to Raziel that I have the strength
to tell them the truth.
Look at me. I'm rambling. And I wanted this to be a
quick note and it's turned into a letter. Good-bye Jace. Hope you
enjoy the rest of your life.
You know what? Fuck this. I might love you to
death, but fuck you! You're nothing more than a bastard! You
got me pregnant, and you wanted me to kill my baby! You don't love
me! You would've at least been here for me! It's your child too you
dammed ass! How could you even think about hurting it!
For that alone,
I think I hate you.
No, a part of my heart will hate you because of that. Fuck.
You. Jace Herondale-Lightwood! Or what ever you're calling your-
self! You've hurt me, made me cry, and so much more! And now I get to
find someone else who will love me in all the ways you refused to! Someone
I'll be about to want to marry like I thought I did you! Have a nice life you!
Hope you never think of me again and I never see you cause Angel help you
if I ever do! Enjoy being alone and never seeing me again!
Clarissa
By now, I was in angry tears again. Looks like you've made me cry once again Jace. I wiped my tears away and took off the chain that I had the Morgenstern on. I set it on top of the letter and left them on my dresser. But I saw something on my night stand.
My legs moved towards the photo frame I had. It use to be one of my prized possessions. Now, it was just a jagged shard in my chest from what use to be my heart.
Taken just a month ago, a picture of Jace and I was on the left. His arms were wrapped around me in a loving embrace. Izzy had taken that on one of the "training" trips to the park. We had actually just went to relax. Izz and Simon went on their separate way, Alec and Magnus to his house.
That was the day before I found out that I was pregnant. That was the last day of true happiness . Like the end of all that I'd come to love and cherish.
On the right was a picture of all of us at the park. Yeah, we had spent a lot of time there. Magnus had used his magic to set the camera to go off. From left to right was Magnus with his arms around Alec, giving him a kiss on the cheek-Alec's face red, but smiling. Then mom and Luke in a similar pose. Simon and Jace both had their arm around me-Si my shoulders, Jace my waist. Izzy and Mia were back to back acting like they were getting ready to shoot someone. Finally, Maryse and Robert were simply smiling. Ever since they got divorsed, they've just been acting like everythings cool between the two of them around the kids.
We were all so happy back then.
Finally, the last picture-the one in the middle-was of Jace. I had actually had to of him in that one frame. The top one was of him smiling. I remember secretly taking that picture, telling him that I was just deleting old picture.
The bottom half was of him sleeping. The only time his face was ever peacful was when he slept. Like an angel. And I was the reason that particular night that he was happy. The ironic part in that night? Yep. The night that I became pregnant.
I took out all the pictures except for the one with his arms around me and placed them in my duffel bag. Then, staring at the last picture in the frame, rage took over me. And with a scream, I threw it at the wall with all the strength I had. Unfortunately, it hit my window and busted threw.
With a deep breath, I whispered, "Hope you all have a good one. I'm gone." I drew on the wall and made my rune just as Izzy knocked on my door saying, "Clary? I heard something break. Are you OK?" I froze for just a second, trying to commit this to memory.
She tried opening the door. "Clary, open the door. Answer me. Clary!" And for just a second, I began to question everything. Was leaving without telling anyone really the best thing for me to do? Was hurting the ones that didn't know why I was leaving worth it?
"Clary! Alec! Jace! Dammit get up here and open Clary's door!" As I heard footsteps, I answered my questions. Yes, it was worth it. I was giving my child what it needed. Love. Protection. Possibly a family if I could find someone to take me in.
So when they began to ram my door and yell, I left. There was no turning back. All I had to start my new life was a duffel bag, a book bag, and my baby.
