Jace parked the car in the middle of the grassy area between rows of cars and cars.

He walked with Clary to a lake where no one else was.

Everyone else was by their car but Jace had set up a blanket just for them and they sat by the lake in private.

Jace had said that there was going to be a big celebration.

He also said it was their tradition. That they would always come here and watch the fireworks.

Where were the fireworks?

Clary looked up at the sky.

She didn't see anything.

Didn't hear anything.

There was nothing.

"When are the fireworks coming on?" Clary asked impatiently.

Jace had been fixing our little 'snack' he had packed for them.

Clary thought it was cute what he was doing for her. It was a bit cheesy, but it was still adorable.

He smiled at her.

"Patience, grasshopper."

She rolled her eyes at the quaint comment.

"I am-" She was cut off by the sound off a loud popping noise.

Pop. Pop. Pop. The sound filled the air.

She looked at the sky and was happily surprised.

Giant colorful lights lit the air. They were like stars.

She wanted to reach up and touch one, but they were out of her reach.

She watched as they soar through the sky and the too quickly went back down.

"Jace!" He turned to looked at her. "Are those the fireworks?"

He looked over to the sky at all the vibrant colors. He looked back at her and nodded.

She was giddy. "Come on!" She patted the space beside her on the blanket he had set up for them.

He smiled and gathered all their things and sat by Clary.

"It's pretty huh?" He asked her getting comfortable.

She almost didn't hear him.

She was to focused on the beautiful lights.

There were greens, blues, purples, reds, yellows, and golden just like Jace's eyes.

She couldn't help, but watch.

Jace stared as the light danced in her eyes.

She whispered one word.

"Beautiful."

Jace smiled. "Just like someone else I know."

She looked over at him.

Who was he talking about?

Jace was looking at her weirdly.

He was looking at her like he was in a dream.

Like she was a dream.

"Who?" she asked in a petite voice.

He gently pulled her to him.

Clary didn't know what going on or what was going to happen.

What is he doing?

She was scared.

She was nervous.

His face slowly crept toward hers.

Clary's eyes were so wide, but his were closed.

His lips were millimeters from hers.

The anticipation inside her was pounding.

Anticipation of what?

Did she want to kiss Jace?

The closer he came the more confused se was.

She couldn't want to kiss him she just got her memory.

But the moment their lips brushed and he whispered that special word it became a need.

She needed to kiss him. She wanted to kiss him.

She didn't know what happened she only met him a few days ago, but it felt like she had known him for years.

"You." He whispered softly against her lips.

She was about to give in when the realization dawned upon her.

He gently pressed his lips to hers and she almost lost it.

She couldn't do this.

She wouldn't do this.

It wasn't right.

It wasn't safe.

With the last amount of dignity she had left she pulled away.

She took a look at Jace's face. He didn't mean to do that.

"Clary-" He started but she didn't let him finish.

She couldn't look at his heart broken face.

"I've got to go."

She got up and reminded her self,

It wasn't right.

It wasn't safe.

I'm back! Yay! Long time no see right?
