I have been dying to read some fanfic post the Seelie Court kiss episode but couldn't find any! This is basically pure Clace after the Seelie Court kiss and my aim for it is to be super smutty so if you're in the mood for that then enjoy.
It had been days since The Seelie Queen had ordered Clary to kiss Jace, but things weren't getting any better at the institute or with Simon. He'd gone off the grid completely, Rafael didn't even know where he was and Clary was worried he was in danger with word that a drained body had turned up not far from where Simon was last seen.
Clary was in her room, laying out clothing as she got out of the shower. Hot water always calmed her and helped her think. Isabel had told her it was okay to have feelings for two people at the same time but Clary not only had to worry about a possible breakup with Simon and confusing Jace's feelings, she was worried about losing Simon as her best friend. They'd been through everything together, she felt horrible for what had happened and had no idea what to do about it.
With her silk dressing gown wrapped around her, she sat down on her bed, her hair brush in her hand as she brushed away the tangles. She swore she could still feel Jace's lips against hers, it felt so forbidden but completed her at the same time. After all this time thinking it was wrong to want him, she now knew it wasn't. He wasn't her brother and she knew her love for Jace wasn't platonic- it was only when Valentine told her they weren't siblings that she admitted this to herself and every night since then, he'd been on the back of her mind. At that moment, a knock at her door startled her.
"Come in," she called and looked over from her spot on her bed to see Jace walking into her room, his eyes dark as he closed the door behind him. "Jace, what are you doing here?" She stood up quickly, there had to be distance between them or she didn't know what she'd do. Jace's eyes paused on her body for a moment, he'd had only seen her in her night gown once, it felt like so long ago that they were together and whatever limbo land she was in with Simon, now was his chance to set things straight.
"I'm sorry, Clary," he said, knowing that barging into her room to profess his love for her was probably not the way to handle things. "We need to talk about what happened, the kiss."
"Jace, I can't explain that to you." Clary shook her head, her arms hugging her small waist, that waist he longed to wrap his arms around and never let go of. "You shouldn't be here."
"The fairies can't lie, Clary. We were supposed to kiss." He stepped towards her as she stepped back again, this time her back was to the wall and she didn't have much more room to move. God, he could smell her. He loved her shampoo, her natural scent, the look of her just out of the shower. He wanted all of her. "I know you didn't want to hurt Simon but-"
"He's my best friend, and I know the fairies can't lie. But Simon has been there for me for so long, I just broke his heart, Jace." She said, her arms hugging herself tighter and he became aware of the fact she wasn't wearing a bra under the gown. He could see the soft outline of her nipples through the fabric and he swallowed hard, willing himself to concentrate. "He'll never forgive me."
"I know he's your best friend, and you love him and I told you I wanted you to be happy, I didn't realise how much it would hurt to watch you with him and not me." Jace stepped closer and cupped his hands around her face, it was now or never. "Just kiss me once more, without all this pressure, with no one around and if you can honestly tell me you don't want me then I promise I will let you be." His eyes searched hers and she opened her mouth, ready to protest when she saw his tongue slip out to lick his bottom lip, and that's all it took to get lost in him just like she used to. Her lips crashed into his and her hands moved from her own waist to his muscular lower back. He pushed himself against her, pinning her to the wall with his strong chest, what they had was electric. He could feel her breasts against his chest, the warmth of her skin, the sweetness of her breath and when the kiss became soft, slow pecks, he pulled back and looked at her.
"It's been forbidden for so long." She said and his hand took one of hers, "I want you Jace, but I shouldn't."
"I know, I don't want to make this harder for you. But you know it's always been us, you and me and we can handle anything that's thrown at us." He said.
"I have to talk to Simon, I can't go behind his back like this." She said, and Jace's eyes lit up.
"Are you saying what I think you're saying?" He whispered, holding her hand tighter.
"Jace, I love you. I want you and I hope that after everything that happened that you'll have me-"He kissed her hard then, his other arm snaking around her waist and crushing her to him. She was the only thing that felt like home, he was going to make sure nothing ever took her away from him again.

"Jace," she smiled up at him, "I've missed you so much." And at that moment her phone rang. Their eyes both darted to the bed and the phone screen, Simon was calling. Jace could see the hesitation in Clary's eyes, he knew she didn't want to let Simon down but he trusted her to follow through. "I should get this," she picked up the phone, gave Jace a soft kiss on the cheek and made her way into the bathroom with her phone to talk to Simon.
Jace didn't know what to do with himself, should he stay in her bedroom and wait for her to finish talking to Simon? He felt like he was invading her privacy and he didn't want to know what it sounded like for Clary to break up with someone, she was his again and he was going to work damn hard to keep it that way.
