It had only been a week since the mortal war and Luke and Jocelyn were off on their honeymoon. Which left Clary and Jace alone as they were walking along the roads of Alicante on the way to the Herondale mansion.
"Jace?" Clary asked quizically.
Jace had seemed to be distant the whole morning even through lunch with Izzy and Simon.
"If your going to ask what's wrong don't bother."
"You have to be kidding me. The angelic Jace who saved the world, is supossedly one of the best shadow hunters to live, won't tell his loving girlfriend what's wrong?"
"Ooh Clary seems fiesty this morning." He gave a real smile for the first time that day which embarrassingly made Clary blush. Though Jace acted as if he didn't notice.
"If you honestly would like to know I've been reading into the Herondale past and it's got me thinking.."
"Thinking about what?" Clary was about to burst of anticipation about what was going on in Jace's mind.
"Well my birhtday is coming up-"
"YOU WANT A BIG LAVISH PARTY?!"
Jace rolled his eyes at Clary's attempt to lighten the mood.
" I was thinking after I turn eighteen I won't have to live in the institute anymore and I was contemplating moving into the Herondale mansion. But it's a big place and I dont want to be there by myself."
Immediantly Clary's face turned scarlet.
