Disclaimer: I do not own TMI or any of the charecters. I simply enjoy writing about them.


Clary had no idea that her life could get this screwed up. I had Jace and a baby on the way but there was no way I would imagine getting married and having a child without my mother around. Every year on the anniversary of her death I would wake up shaking and never knowing where I was or if Jace and I were in danger.

"Are you okay, love?" Asked Jace. He always worried about me so much on these nights. He also worried about me going to take care of Luke, bringing him groceries and cleaning his house that was now empty.

"I'm fine. The baby just kicked." I lie. That's how I get through this. I lie to Jace, I lie to myself, I even lie to Simon.

"Okay..."

"Jace, just go back to sleep."

I wait a few minute and I hear his soft snores again. I roll out of bed, which is difficult since I am 7 months pregnant. I go to the bathroom and start the shower. I slowly strip off my sweat soaked clothes and climb in.

I quickly towel off and get some new clothes from the closet that Jace and I share. I never knew a man like Jace could have so many clothes. He has 3/4 of the closet to call his own.

When I am just about to leave to Luke's Jace wakes up. "Babe, wait, I want to go with."

"Jace, its only Luke. He won't hurt me." Jace always worries after what happened with my mom.

"Tell that to your mom." I start crying and he comes over to comfort me. "Clary, I'm sorry. Its just you know what he did and I'm scared to lose you and the baby."

"I know but he didn't mean to. It wasn't his fault..." I sob.

"Just let me go with."

"Okay."

In the taxi I think about the tragic day my mom died. Luke had got angry- really angry- and he wolfed mom was the closest to him. I still remember her flying and hitting a wall. I was there and she had just found out Jace had proposed. Luke had no control and he came towards me. My mom hopped up and came infront of me to protect me. She died protecting me. How could I have let her do that? How could she have been able to protect me but I couldn't stop her from dying. Though I am devistated, I know Luke has it worse. All he does is go to the Hunter's Moon Tavern and drink the day away until the kick him out and call a cab for him. He hasn't dated since she died, which was 3 years ago and he hasn't cleaned a speck.

I get flashed back to reality as the taxi cab stops. We are infront of Luke's lake house. Jace pays the cab driver and we watch him pull out of the driveway. We turn to look at the house. It is dark on the inside. And the door is wide open.

We grab out our sereph blades and they lift to life.

Jace gets in front of me, "Stay behind me."

I nod. We enter and I hear a scream.


AN: Sorry about the clif hanger. I just had a hard time figuring out what to write about and then late last night it hit me. This is in the future after Clary and Jace are married and also Luke is pretty fucked up. There will be some Sizzy action later.(:
