Hey guys, this is just a one shot that I had in mind for ages, to the point that it was bugging me until I wrote it. So it will remain a one shot unless I get enough positive reviews, then I will develop it into a story. So read and review and then tell me what you all think please? Ok, on with the story.

The night was cold, wet and dark. Rain poured down in heavy droplets and puddles of water were scattered everywhere over the roads and footpaths of New York City. The familiar smell of pollution and cigarettes lingered in the air as Clary Fray walked along central park on her way to meet her boyfriend, Jace Wayland. She kicked up the colourful autumn leaves that were dispersed everywhere on the grass and footpath. She huffed in frustration as she walked along. Jace still refused to teach her how to fight and denied her the chance to train. He said that it was too dangerous and that she would be safer hidden behind him. She sighed again as she looked up and saw Taki, the place where her and Jace agreed to meet everyone. She looked through the window where she saw Magnus smiling at her. She waved back and opened the door of the restaurant, hearing the now familiar sound of the tinkling of the bell when the door was pushed open.

The restaurant was fairly crowded. No one except Jace and Simon looked up as she entered. As she was walking towards them she could hear two werewolves arguing over who would win in a fight, Magnus Bane or Albus Dumbledore from Harry Potter. Clary couldn't help but giggle at their foolishness. She slid in the booth beside Jace where he then slipped an arm around her waist, pulling her closer to him.

"Hello beautiful," Jace whispered in her ear and gently kissed her.

She smiled. "Hi."

Jace looked down at the beauty beside him. He felt himself relax almost sub-consciously. Jace hadn't even realised how rigged he had been until she was safe by his side. He knew that as long as she was with him that nothing would happen to her. He would give his life for her and he knew that she would give hers for his, and that scared the crap out of him. He couldn't live, or breath without her and just the thought of her not existing at all left him breathless.

As Clary laughed now with Simon, Jace could feel the waves of laughter roll through her. He could see the way her eyes crinkled in the corners as she smiled and the snort that would come out of her nose when she would breath in. everything about her way beautiful and she didn't even realise it.

As if Clary could sense his eyes on her she looked up to meet his glance. She smiled at him and he leaned in and pressed his lips against hers. Jace felt the surprised gasp that slipped from between her lips and he smiled. Jace found that the longer he stayed there kissing her, the more passionate the kiss got. He snaked his free hand that wasn't around her waist up into her hair where it twisted amongst the knots. Clary moaned as she opened up more for him and pressed closer to him, so that she was half in his lap. There was a groan and an awkward cough from someone at the table and Jace looked up to see Simon with his hands covering his face, Alec looked embarrassed, Izzy looked annoyed and Magnus looked amused.

"Hey! No PDA in front of me! It's like seeing my own sister having sex," Simon complained.

Jace smirked as Clary pulled away from me, a blush working its way up her cheeks and into her face.

"No one said you had to look rat boy," Jace snickered which earned me a slap on my arm from Clary.

"His name's Simon, Jace," she scowled.

Jace laughed and kissed Clary on the top of her head. "I'm sorry babe."

Clary rolled her eyes just as the waitress Kaelie walked over to their table. She seemed to puff out her chest more than usual as she came up to stand beside Jace.

"Are you guys ready to order?" She asked in a sickly sweet voice.

"Yes thanks, I have the large fries and cheeseburger meal thanks," Clary said.

Kaelie shot her a disgusted look from the amount of fat that she would be consuming but then proceeded to take the others orders. When she took Jace's order, which was the last order, she bent down so that she could hear him better, but also so that her breasts were in Jace's face, so that he had no option but to look.

Clary felt the rage that built up inside her that was cold and unfamiliar. She clenched her fists and abruptly stood up from the table, surprising everyone.

"Look here slut. If you don't get your boobs out of my boyfriend's face I'll light those scraps of material that you call clothes on fire and then chain you to the pole outside naked, leaving you open for any demon who wants you."

Clary then pushed her chair away from the table as everyone else looked at her opened mouthed.

"What?" Clary asked annoyed.

"I-" Simon began but he didn't know what to say.

This was his best friend Clary that never got upset anyone. Never got mad, never got annoyed, never made threats and most importantly, never got jealous.

Clary huffed and then started to stalk off back out of the restaurant after only being in there for five minutes.

"Clary, wait!"

Clary whirled around only to come face to face with Jace.

"And you," She said poking her finger at his chest. "Shouldn't have been looking down her top! You should have had enough respect and loyalty towards me to look away!" Clary cried angrily.

"It was a bit hard when her boobs were in my face babe," Jace snapped and then regretted it instantly.

He knew how insecure Clary was and him snapping at her when other girls hit on him wasn't going to help this argument. He started to reached out for her but she flinched away from him.

"Clary…"

"Don't touch me, Jace. Or I'll-"

She suddenly broke off not knowing what to say.

"You'll what?" He asked raising an eyebrow.

"I'll kick you in the vagina."

Jace couldn't help it, he laughed. "I don't have one baby."

"You will when I'm through with you," she threated.

Behind them there was a sound of someone choking on their drink and when Jace looked he saw Magnus coughing and being patted on the back by Alec.

"Clary-"

But she had already started walking away. She was at the door by the time Jace started to go after her but was held back by Isabelle.

"Let her be Jace. Just give her space. She'll come around." Izzy smiled at him sympathetically, something she never does so Jace could tell that she was being sincere.

"But-"

"No Jace, look, how would you feel if you were Clary huh? How would you feel if ever girl that was prettier than yourself were throwing themselves at your boyfriend and he was looking down their tops? You'd be hurt wouldn't you?" Izzy asked at him sounding a bit mad.

"Well, yeah… But to me no one is prettier than Clary, Izzy. She doesn't even realise how beautiful she is."

This time Izzy smiled. "We know that but she doesn't Jace."

He dropped his head defeated and ran a hand through his hair. "God I am such a jackass," Jace sighed chewing on his bottom lip.

"We all know that Jace," Izzy smirked.

Jace gave her an exasperated look when suddenly a scream that came from outside ripped through the air. Everyone's head at the table snapped up and Jace just knew that the scream belonged to Clary.

"Clary," he whispered and ran out the restaurant quicker than anyone could draw in a breath.

By the time Jace was out the door he could hear his siblings and friends following him to see what had happened. They ran around the corner into a nearby alley and what Jace saw stopped him in his tracks.

There stood the Greater Demon Abbadon with his bad smell and horrid looks. But that wasn't what made Jace freeze in place.

In Abbadon's hold was Clary hanging upside down with blood flowing down her arms and chest.

"Clary!"

In that instant Jace regretted all the times he denied Clary of training to become a shadowhunter. He should have taught her himself so that she could be the best of the best. If he had taught her how to fight then maybe she wouldn't be in this position, and she wouldn't be hurt. The guilty and the remorse gripped him making it hard to breath. If he lost her, he wouldn't know why it would be worth living. She was his everything.

And she didn't even know it.

It only took Jace half a second to think and feel all this before he was leaping into action. He pulled out a seraph blade crying out its name as he did so.

"Israfiel!"

Jace caught the demon across its chest which made it drop Clary as it howled in pain. Jace watched as Clary slumped to the ground, so small, and so lifeless. Jace only allowed a slither of worry to go through him before he focused back on the fight.

The demon strike out, catching Jace by surprise. Jace skidded back along the concrete where he then hit the brick wall behind him. His head thumped the wall pretty hard and for just a moment Jace's world spun before he then got a grip on himself and threw himself back into the fight.

In front of him, Izzy, Alec and Simon were fighting the Abbadon demon, and Simon was using his vampire speed to distract the demon while Alec and Izzy struck out at it. Off to the side Magnus was crouching over an unconscious Clary.

There was a scream and Jace whipped around just in time to catch Izzy who came flying at him. He set her gently on her feet and she looked at him gratefully.

"Thanks," She panted.

"It's fine," He answered and then they both joined the fight once again.

Jace, having the special ability to jump high heights, jumped up on the demon's shoulders and got a good grip. The demon was busy trying to swat Jace off of his shoulders that he hadn't seen Alec who raised his bow and fired an arrow directly into Abbadon's heart.

Abbadon screeched and then disappeared as it went back to its own dimension.

Jace dropped to the ground as the Demon vanished and fell to the ground with a soft thud. He straightened up and saw Izzy who was looking at Simon, who was looking at Clary.

Jace ran forward pushing past Simon roughly as he knelt down beside Clary's side.

The first thing Jace saw was the blood that was everywhere and then Clary's ghostly white pale skin. Her breathing was shallow and labored. Her eyes were closed and her arms were splayed out at her sides carelessly.

"Clary…" Jace whispered stroking hair away from her face.

At Jace's touch Clary's eyelids fluttered and they focused on Jace as she struggled to keep her eyes open.

"Jace…" Clary whispered.

Jace felt a strange sensation grip his stomach as he leant over Clary to press his lip tenderly to her forehead, and after a minute he realised that it was grief.

He couldn't lose her, not after everything they had been through. He couldn't.

"Please Clary, stay with me. Magnus will heal you. You're going to be fine," he said but more so to convince himself.

Clary's eyelids were falling closed again and her pulse was growing fainter and the grip she had on his shirt was growing weaker.

"Magnus!" Jace screamed and Magnus was there beside him in an instant.

"Heal her! Or help her, just do… something! Please!" Jace begged.

Magnus looked up at Alec, Isabelle and Simon; they knew as well as he did that this Jace wasn't the arrogant and sarcastic Jace that they were used to seeing. This was the kind and caring Jace that only Clary ever got to see.

Tears were streaming down Izzy's face and she never cried, even Simon who was a vampire looked un-naturally pale at seeing his best friend dying before his eyes.

Clary was now gasping for breath when she suddenly took one last jaggered breath and then stopped breathing all together.

"Clary. Clary!" Jace yelled shaking her shoulders lightly at first and then more roughly. "Clary!"

Isabelle was now sobbing into Simon's chest as his arms encircled her and tears glistened on his cheeks. Magnus stood back with Alec looking mournfully in on the scene feeling a bit like an intruder, but at the moment Jace couldn't care. All he cared about was that the love of his life had stopped breathing.

"Clary please! It's my fault! If I hadn't made you mad in the restaurant and hadn't looked down Kaelie's top then you'd still be here and I wouldn't be losing you. I can't lose you. Please Clary, come back to me," He said finishing in a whisper. "Please."

Alec who had been Jace's brother ever since they were young had never seen Jace cry, but he guessed we all have our breaking points and he often wondered what it would take for Jace to break. Now he knew.

The tears just rolled off Jace's cheeks as he gripped his love tighter in his hold refusing to believe that she was dead.

Simon who had been silent throughout the whole thing now stepped forward.

"There is a way to save her Jace," He said quietly. So quiet that Jace almost didn't hear him.

Jace's head snapped up and fixed the Daylighter with his piercing gaze. "What is it Simon? I'll do it, whatever it is, I'll do it." Anyone could hear the chocked sobs that were coming out of the boy's throat.

Simon bit his lip and then winced as his fangs bit into his lower lip. It was the first time that Simon had ever heard Jace Wayland call him Simon. It was always Daylighter, or Rat boy or Mundane.

"Well, I can bite her."

Jace's head jerked around and glared at Simon. He clutched Clary tighter to his chest and growled at Simon who was bending down to them.

"No way Bloodsucker. No way in hell!" Jace yelled and cried at the same time.

"It's the only way Jace, but if I'm going to do it, I have to do it now or it will be too late and Clary will die. Unless you let me bite her and then I can turn her," Simon ordered.

Jace bit his lip as a few stray tears streaked down his cheeks. He then turned to glare at Simon as he began leaning in towards Clary.

"Wait, she needs to have some of your blood in her first to be able to transition into a vampire," He said.

Simon nodded. "I can cut my wrist or something and then hold my wrist over Clary's mouth so that she swallows my blood." Simon paused so he could allow time for everyone to soak that in. "So what do you say Jace? It's your call."

Jace deliberated for only a second before he hesitantly nodded. "Alright Simon. Do it."

They all then held their breaths as Simon took Jace's seraph blade and dragged it across his own wrist drawing dark beads of blood and then positioned it over Clary's mouth as the first few drops fell into her throat.

So, that's the first chapter. If you liked it then review and if I get at least ten reviews then I will continue this story and develop it into an epic story. But until then:

Goodbye my lovelies xx
