Hey everyone, thank you for all the votes on the poll. Sorry for all of those people who wanted to keep Jessa babies in AE because, looks like most of you want a spinoff series! AHH! I am so excited to announce it, I can't wait to start writing it. Well, today, her mother didn't want me visiting so this gave me some time to write. I think I'll give their family some time… Anyways, I hope you enjoy.

The Next Day

Tessa's POV

"Tessa!" I hear Emma call as she makes her way down the hall and to the door, "Your back." she looks at me with her mouth agape and a smile.

"Yes I am, kiddo." I return back. Emma knows me and Jem are dating, I am slowly moving in. She doesn't know yet, but I bring more and more of my things here when I come back. I have my own drawer of clothes in Jem's dresser, a few of my books on his bookshelf, and my family's old jewelry box. What can I say? I am a lover of fashion.

"Are you staying overnight?" she asked, eager for me to say yes. I know Emma looks up to me like a mother figure and I try my best to. She hates to admit it but, she backs down to a 5 year old when it comes to family, and I am so proud to say she considers me family.

"Uh-huh, and I'll be making my famous homemade pasta!" The last part I turn into an Italian accent, she smiles, her phone buzzes in her pocket. She grabs it and looks down at it, it buzzed again which meant it was a phone call, she scurried off to her room.

"She loves you." says Jem on the couch with A Tale Of Two Cities resting on his lap, he seemed to be about 100 pages in. That was my favorite book, looked like he decided to crack into it. I smile, bend down and give him a quick kiss. I can hear Emma talking on the phone, but can't exactly make out what she is saying.

"Yea, I don't know how though." I ponder, Jem drops his book in his lap and looks at me with so much surprise and shock.

"Tessa, are you kidding? You have no flaws found anywhere," he strokes the side of my face sweetly, "Whether that be personality, looks, anything. Your IQ is infinitely higher than anyone else I know. Plus, you are so sweet and kind to her, you treat her so well and she looks up to you like a mother. She loves you." he says, I kiss him again, soft and gentle, filled with so much love it should have been illegal.

"Uh-hum." Emma fake coughs from the end of the hallway, I break off the kiss and look over to Emma, her phone in her hand pressed against her shoulder. Probably asking if Jules can stay for dinner. I knew I got a bit of lipgloss on Jem, embarrassed, I walk off to the kitchen, grab my ingredients and work on my famous pasta.

Clary's POV

"I'll grab the mail if you'll change her diaper." I say, Jace looks down at a standing Abby. I am so happy to see that my little babygirl can now walk and stand on her own. Abby looks back up at him with a devious grin. I sprint out of the house to grab the mail before he protests.

I make it out there to the mailbox and laugh, a tad bit winded. I place my hand on my belly, still no bump in the progress, but that was okay because I found it out pretty early. I grab the mail and quickly scan over them as I make my way up to the house. A water and electricity bill to pay, great, well with the exception of junk mail.

I come in and set them on the kitchen table, Jace comes over to me with Abby clinging to his picks up and opens the bills, we were getting ours a week early which was odd. Probably some complications but it didn't affect us, it was just odd.

"Mommy, you dropped dis." Abby says, I bend down and pick up the dropped envelope. It was from NYU (New York University) No way. Lost of words from pure excitement, I stand up and start lightly giggling.

"What is it?" Jace asks with his eyebrows now furrowed in confusion. He see's where it's from and grabs the camera in a flash. He pressed record. Oh, I hope it is an acceptance in. Excitement bounces down through my veins, I can't help a tiny shrill of a squeal come out of me. Abby looks genuinely concerned for me and clings onto my leg.

I didn't realize how scared I was until I put my now shaky hand up to open it. I do and fear vanished, all the running bliss came back down to me. Tears on the brim of my eyes, I have wanted to go to this college since I was 11, I really hope I get in.

Congratulations, Clarissa Adele Herondale, you have been accepted into New York University.

I stopped breathing in that exact moment and tears fell off from my eyes to the paper. I cover my mouth with my free hand, this is not possible. I shake my head in disbelief and start squealing with joy. The cheer seemed to spread throughout the room, Abby had no clue what it was but bounced in happiness and Jace looked at me like, "Yea, that's my wife, I am proud."

"JACE! I GOT IN! I GOT INTO NYU!" I scream as I come up and hug him, not able to keep my excitement in. Is this even happening? My mind is so boggled I can't think straight or know what to do, let alone speak.

Of course I would be taking online classes to stay with my husband and child, especially now even more than before because I am pregnant. But are you serious! I just got into my dream college!

Later In The Day

Emma's POV

"Fine...whatever...alright. Mkay, bye." Julian ends his phone call with his half-sister Helen. "She is going over to her girlfriends house, Aline, for the rest of the week with no heads up."

"You can stay with us." I volunteer the idea too fast, Tessa and Uncle Jem just look at me, I fake cough and pick at the pasta with my fork. Julian sits back down in his seat next to me, our fingers lock under the table, I casually take a bit of my pasta.

"Emma is right," Tessa says after a pause, "Feel free to stay here with us. Unfortunately I can only offer you the couch." An idea popped in my tiny little head, a rather naughty thought. I would not voice this aloud obviously, he could sleep in my room with me. The way Julian's hand became sweaty abnormally fast in mine suddenly, I knew he had the same thought.

"Alright." he says, " I have a house key on me so I can stop by my house to get a change of clothes and such."

It was now 9:00 PM, Julian just texted me saying he was turning on our block now. Thankfully our school lets us out way early than usual, 2 weeks before June. I used to get out of school 3 weeks into June at my old elementary/middle school, and that sucked.

The was a wiggle on the knob, I sat out on the couch in the living room waiting, so was Tessa with some green sweeten tea. Just to make sure he got here safely. I go up, checking through the window always, I saw it was Julian and unlocked the door. He came in abruptly once he heard the door unlock and his chest collapsed into mine.

I back away, and slowly look into his eyes, his pupils expanding widely. Why I had noticed something so small like that was funny but why? He wasn't on drugs so why was his pupils dialating? Hmm... He gives me his award winning lopsided smiles, lightly grabbing both of my shoulders.

"My bad." he said, I take another step back sheepishly.

"Well, let me get you a blanket and a proper pillow instead of those hard couch pillows." she says, Julian not realizing she was there until now. He blushes a light pink as Tessa moves herself off of the couch and to the hallway closet. I'm just glad he didn't do anything stupid.

I grumble from my room and walk to the bathroom. It was currently 2 AM and I was just kinda wondering towards the bathroom in a haze. The whole house was dark and silent, it was nice, my feet creaked on the hallway wood. We only have carpet in the living room, everything else is wood.

I bump into a hard figure, a little taller than me. It couldn't have been Tessa. This figure was a little taller than me, and I realized that this figure was Julian, my boyfriend. When I bumped into him things snapped back and were more vibrant.

"Why are you awake?" he asked so softly, quiet, and gentle. He was sorta holding me, I've slept walked before to the kitchen one time at his house before so he must think that's what I am doing now.

"I...um," suddenly I forgot why I was out here. I was sleepwalking and once I bumped into Julian, I woke up. "I don't know." I admit.

"It's okay, let's just go back to bed." he said, he turned off the bathroom light and walked me over to my room. He was so quiet, almost as if he were a shadow. In a way, he was, I couldn't see his full face and body because of the darkness, he was as quiet as one too.

I laid down on my bed, just now realizing I was in only panties and a black tank top. He kisses my forehead slowly as he tucks the blankets over me. I close my eyes and he departs himself from the kiss.

"Jules?" I ask quietly before he goes off to sleep. He turns around and our eyes lock, I wished the light was on so I could see his beautiful features. "I can't sleep."

"Emma Cordelia Carstairs, are you asking me to lie next to you in bed at 2 o' clock in the morning even when you have a big chance of getting caught?" he fakes the surprised look on his face. I giggle and nod my head.

He closes my door, well, he leaves it slightly ajar and snuggles up next to me. But he did something unexpected here that made me a little self conscious but special, he slid under the blanket with me. My legs touched his, his legs were so warm oddly against mine. His arms snaked around my waist as he nuzzled his head in my neck.

I expected him to kiss my neck but he didn't, I would just spring out of pure joy if he did that. This had only made me realize how head over heels I am for Jules, I love him.

"Julian…" I say a little sobby-like, he raises his head, fully aware. He puts his hand on my cheek farthest from him, I lean facing him a little. "I don't want to get hurt." I admit as a tear falls over the bridge of my nose. He knows I was never the one to fall in love, I always had my wall up, everyone knew.

So he knew that what I was saying is a raw nerve.

He kisses me back as a reply, I realized that he was only in shorts, no shirt. That goes to show how dark the shadows were, and he was probably realizing that I was only in a tank top and panties. We stay like that, kissing and kissing for what seemed like hours until I nuzzled my head in his neck, placing a light kiss then falling asleep.

Oooo! We got some Emma and Julian action, I really love their characters together and I am so happy I can finally work with them. Also, I felt the need to throw that Clary scene in there, flashbacking to my 4th chapter. Should I do a Jemma (I don't know if they have an official ship name but that's what it is now) spinoff? I'll make a poll of it, go vote right after I finish this...please? Haha, anyways, I hope you enjoyed this longer chapter than usual, byeee :*
