Jace watched as Clary fell asleep in his arms. Her muscles loosened and her breathing evened out; and Jace held her tighter to his chest. God Clary how I wish you knew how much I love you. He thought.
He watched her sleep for about three hours when he heard footsteps. He didn't want to wake her up and bring her back to this hell but he told her that he would wake her and that's what he would do. He kissed her forehead and lightly stroked her cheek.
He eyes fluttered open. "I can get used to waking up to your face." She smiled. Then her grasp tightened on his shirt and she started coughing uncontrollably.
"Clary! Clary are you okay?!"
She took a few deep, shaky breaths. "Yeah. I'm fine. I'm just thirsty and hungry. Haven't had anything to eat in like three days." She shuddered against him. He shrugged his jacket off and draped it around her.
"I woke you cause I heard—" he was cut off as the door opened.
"Awe! How cute!" A familiar, cruel voice laughed. In an instant Jace was on his feet with Clary behind him. He didn't speak, just glared at the one person he never wanted to see again. He could deal with Valentine but not Sebastian.
"Aren't you going to speak, little brother?" Sebastian asked.
"He's not your brother you psychopath!" Clary screamed.
"Hush, sister."
"Don't call me that. I'm nothing like you!"
"Unfortunately not. You wish you were though–"
"Never!" She screamed and before Jace could stop her she ran out from behind him straight at Sebastian.
"Clary!" He called but she ignored him. She bolted to Sebastian and tried to punch him but he grabbed both her wrists and threw her to the ground, pinning her shoulders under his knees. He sat and her chest to prevent her from getting up.
"Get off of me you foul creature!" She spit into his face. He wiped his face and grabbed her throat.
"How I HATE that my father will not just allow me to kill right now!" He hissed. Then he went flying off of her as Jace slammed into him.
Jace grabbed Clary and backed her up to the wall where he stood in front of her once again. Sebastian growled and stood up. "I don't need this! The second my father lets me I will enjoy tearing your throat out." He said to Jace. Then he turned his head to look at Clary. "And as far as you go I won't kill you. You will just be tortured for the rest of your life!"
Jace felt Clary tense behind him but she said nothing. "You came in here for a reason. What do you want?" He hissed at Sebastian.
"I can in here to give you and her food and water. You won't do good to us if you die of thirst or starve." He walked out and grabbed two trays from just outside the room and set them down then left without another word. Clary relaxed behind him.
Hehe! Woo! I'm on a roll!:P I just love Jace! And sorry guys but I kinda have the thing for Sebastian! and Valentine! lol sorry! not that sorry though haha! You all know you like the two bastards too!
