Jace POV
I needed to calm down. I was pacing in the library like there was no tomorrow, and kept muttering how Luke was going to eat me. I really hoped he wouldn't though because that would just be disappointing. Jace Way-Lightwood never got nervous. Okay that was a lie, he always got nervous he was just really good at covering it up. I decided to stop pacing and I found myself going to the library window. It was twilight and the sun was setting. The colours danced across the library, shades of orange and pink making the place look magical. Each book in the library had there own world to escape to, like you could get lost into the history of Shadow hunters, and since Clary came here the library has been filled off mundane books as well. I smiled. I remembered when I saw her face when she came into the library. Obviously she was having a bad day with the whole 'my mum might be dead thing' but as soon as she saw the books her face had just the tiniest bit of joy on, and made my heart skip. I thought I was just being stupid then but now I realised that I loved her from the beginning and that's what brought me to the conclusion today.
It had been 6 months since the battle of Valentime was over, and yet it seemed like it was just yesterday. I could still remember Idris burning, the screams and all the loss. Yet there was some memories that brought my heart to joy, and that may sound bad considering it was the worst war in the history of Shadowhunters and Downworlders all together. When he heard Clary saved them by making that rune of Alliance, I felt so proud and all I could think at that time was 'that's my Clary'. Also when Alec decided to kiss, well more like make-out with Mangus in front of everyone, and especially The Clave and Maryse and Robert…that took some serious courage. Of course I wasn't there at the time for that, but what I was there, well sort of there for, was when Clary picked me instead of the world. Well that's what it looked liked to me. The girl could of had anything in the world and she decided to save my life. I didn't give her all the details of what happened when I was…well dead because that would come later, yet I did hear her voice calling. And it was like anything I ever experienced. She was there calling to me, begging me to come back to her, not to leave her. I shuddered, bringing me out of my delusion. I never wanted her to sound so heart broken or desprate again. I would never leave her again. I loved her too much.
"Did you want to talk to us or should we let you continue staring outside that window like a dork"
Startled, I looked and found Luke and Jocelyn looking at me with smirks on there faces. All that sprung to mind is that Luke was going to eat me while Jocelyn chopped me into little bits. I was being extreme but I was so nervous I didn't even have a cocky comeback to it. A lump formed into my throat, so I had to swallow about 2 times. It helped a bit but not much.
"Luke, Jocelyn would you like to sit down?" They sat on the coach together, holding each others hands. Their relationship had been going good from what Clary told me as well. Jocelyn was helping Luke run his bookstore and business was going good as well. I took a seat opposite from them and looked them in the eye.
"Jace, what's wrong? Is Clary alright?" Jocelyn sounded frantic.
" No, no! nothings wrong I just wanted to talk to you two. Well more like ask" I swallowed the lump that formed in my throat once again. That was really getting inconvenient.
"Well go ahead and ask Jace" Luke said smiling. I took a deep breathe and then carried on.
" I know both of you despised Valentime" I saw Jocelyn flinch a bit, and Luke's eye twitch. Ah not a good start. "But he was the man that raised me, and I must admit he had a lot of discipline. But one thing he did teach me is that if I ever met the girl of my dreams that I should be respectful and ask their parents first. Of course that is too late to ask because we all fully know that me and Clary are in love. And, hell to be honest she is the girl of my dreams" A smile came to my face then. "Only later did I realise he had no intention of me living that long to find her, but yet I have and I find myself extremely lucky. The past, and present has made me realise that I want to tie myself to Clary in every way possible known to man, so right now I'm asking you for your blessing and your permission to marry your daughter" I took a deep breathe. Jocelyn had tears in her eyes and surprisingly a huge smile on her face, which surprised me. I looked at Luke and he had the same, but minus the tears. Jocelyn spoke first.
"Jace I know when I first met you I wasn't very nice"
"Understatement' I mumbled and then cursed in my head. Do I want them saying yes or not. "Sorry" I told her with a weak smile.
"No you have every right to" She carried on. "But in the past 6 months I've seen how you two act. You may not realise it but me and Luke have been watching you. The way you two move near each other like it was a habit to be close. They way you watch her like you would jump in front of a demon to save her life like it is a second nature-"
"Is that a bad thing?" I asked
"No" Luke carried on for her. "In fact it is the most we could ever ask for, and Jace in all seriousness you're the best thing that ever did in fact happen to Clary. There's just one thing." He smiled in a way that made me shrink back in fear. Yes. I am badass. The most badass person there is, but Luke was intimidating being a werewolf and Clary's basically dad. "You hurt her? We will kill you. Slowly and painfully"
"You do realise that I would never hurt her. In anyway possible"
"Yes we know" Jocelyn said. "But also, you shack her up before she's ready you'll be dealing with me"
"Shack he-Oh!" My eyes grew wide. Get Clary pregnant? My heart burst for her. Nothing more would make me happier me becoming her wife, and her bearing my child. But later because I the way Jocelyn was looking at me now, I would enjoy my manhood a bit more longer.
"N-no never. N-not that I don't want Clary to have my children" Jocelyn raised an eyebrow and I think I heard Luke growl. "N-no! Just not yet" I sighed. "Don't tell anyone that Jace Lightwood was a nervous wreck and totally embarrassed himself in front of the girl he wants to married parents"
"So you already got the ring?" Luke asked.
"I've had it for quite a while actually. For 6 months. When I got my fathers box of stuff it had his wedding rings in. I thought they were beautiful, and I know Clary likes things with meaning in them" I smiled. I never really saw my biological dad as my real father, and it felt weird saying it as well. But to be truful they were beautiful. I got the velvet box box and opened her engagement ring, and for now my ring and her wedding ring was in there as well. Her engagement ring had a diamond on and beside it on both sides was a blue emerald. On her ring and her wedding one that she would also get (if she said yes that was) had patterns on it. Her wedding rings also had diamonds on it. On all of the rings it said 'Semper semper' which was Latin.
"They're beautiful" Jocelyn whispered. I smiled.
"Well I should go to get read for tonight" When I said that my stomach fluttered. What if she didn't want to marry me? I know she loved me but what if she said it wasn't the right time? Luke seemed to release what I was thinking. He got up and patted me on the back.
"You'll be fine Jace, don't worry and remember what we said" he smiled, and then Jocelyn got up and totally shocked me by hugging me. After a while I hugged back.
"She loves you so much y'know that? You've made her so happy" She whispered to me
"I know, and she completes me as well Jocelyn. More than anyone realises" She pulled back and had tears in her eyes. When they left I headed down the stairs to get ready for tonight…
