Clary woke up the next morning, feeling very warm and comfortable. She snuggled into the warmth and slowly turned around, finding herself staring at a chest; presumably Jace's. Clary let out a small gasp and jerked away, the movement causing Jace to stir. He slowly opened his eyes and yawned looking at Clary strangely.
"What?"
"We're we're, in the same bed."
"Not the first time."
"And we're fighting."
"Are we?"
"And I'm- WHAT AM I WEARING!"
"Clothes."
"Jace Herondale, did you change me while I was asleep?"
"Yes." Clary gasped. "Clare, its not as though I haven't seen you before, and I figured youd be more comfortable if I changed you."
"Well-"
"Well what. You know I'm right."
"you suck Jace."
"You love that I do."
"Pig."
"Well played. Now."
"What?"
"What are we going to do?" Jace propped his head up on one arm and stared down at Clary.
"Ive told you what I want."
"And I have told you what I want. Clary we cant just; destroy something that we created. Yes we made a mistake; and for that I am sorry. Im sorry we cant change what happens to your body, and I'm sorry that its you that is most affected, okay, Im sorry. But together we created a life, and I am not prepared, to let my mistake ruin this babies fate. Okay, take it out on me, break up with me, slap me, sleep with me;" Clary snorted, "Whatever. But do not take it out o this baby."
"Jace, I don't know."
"Come on Clary. What are you afraid of?" Clary looked out the window.
"Clary look at me, what are you afraid of?"
Clary turned back to Jace and hesitated. "Im just-" Her gaze dropped a bit and flicked back up to his face. "Can you please put a shirt on?"
Jace laughed and nodded, and Clary was able to appreciate his back muscles as he ambled out of bed and pulled on a black tight tee shirt and got back into bed.
"Better?"
"Barely," Clary mumbled as the shirt clung to his muscles.
Jace laughed again and turned to face her. "So, what are you afraid of?"
"Giving birth for starters. The judgmental stares I'll get, the hate I'll get. The raising a child; or abandoning my child, that you'll leave, that-"
"Woah, woah hold on. Your afraid that ill leave?"
"Jace how many teenage pregnancies have you heard of where the father hangs around?"
"Clary, if I was going to leave you 4 months in, I would not be fighting to keep this child right now, Clary. Please." Jace said desperately.
"Jace, I don't know. DO you honestly think, when you see this child you'll be able to giv them away?"
"No."
"Exactly. How do you think we're going to be able to raise a child?"
"Babe we'll figure it out."
"Okay, when?"
"We have 9 months."
"Jace, we will not be able to raise a baby together. We wont be able to afford it, to complete school? Jace our lives will begin to revolve around the baby, whether we want them to or not."
"Babe, we'll be able to work through it."
"Jace I'm not so sure."
"Clare, come on. We're surrounded by people who can help us. And if later on we decide we don't want this child, we'll look into adoption."
"Jace are you sure?"
"Never been so sure in my life babe."
Clary sighed and slowly nodded.
"Is that a yes?"
"Yeah Jace, it is." Clary said with a small smile. Jace grinned and rolled over her, leaning down and catching her lips in his.
"Babe, I love you so much." Jace said against her lips, his hand drawing patterns on her hip bone.
"I love you too. I cant believe, we're having a baby together."
"Me neither." Slowly their kiss turned more heated, until they were basically making out, only to be interrupted by Celine.
"Jonathan Herondale, get off Clary!" Clary felt Jace smirk, and with a groan pushed him off of her.
"Jace, your so fat."
"You love me."
Clary just rolled her eyes and fixed Jace's top up, so it was again down to her mid thigh.
"Well good morning guys. You too are quite a bit…happier."
Jace nodded. "I take it you agreed on something? What was that?"
"We're gonna keep it. Maybe consider adoption when we're older."
"IM really proud of the both of you. Well, actually I'm more disappointed but anyway. Are you sure you're both happy with this? Clary?"
"Yeah, I'm- scared, a bit worried, but I did come to this decision with Jace."
"Good job guys, one compromise of many to come. Now, Clary your mother wants you home."
"Why?"
"She came to find you last night and well…wasn't the happiest to discover the two of you sleeping together,which is kind of ironic but of course she doesn't know that. And I would suggest you drag my son along with you, as I'm pretty sure she is going to demand answers and Jace should take the impact as well. Of course if you'd rather him not be there that is ok too."
"Crap, well thanks Celine, for everything."
"No problems sweety. Did you want me to call the abortion clinic?"
Clary gasped and sat up. "I completely forgot, I am so sorry! That would be great thankyou!"
"That's ok. I'll go do that; oh and Jace?"
"Yes?"
"Door stays open, yes?"
"But-"
"Don't you dare say what I know your going to say. That will be discussed later; you can count on that!"
Jace smirked and snuggled into Clary's side.
"DO you want me to come with you babe?"
"Yes please. You can take on Jon."
"Cant wait," he mumbled under his breath.
"Bet you cant. Come on, we better get moving."
"I don't want to."
"You don't have a choice Jace." Clary said with a smirk, sitting up in bed and stretching. She slowly placed her feet on the ground and stood up with a yawn. Jace bit his lip, checking her out.
"Clare, you look incredible, in my shirt."
"Well thankyou Jace, but I think I'll need to change out of it."
"If you have to," he whined. Clary laughed and entered Jace's ensuite, making sure to lock the door behind her. She quickly stripped off the small amount of clothes she had on and got in the shower. She washed her hair and body, and trying to be quick jumped out, wrapping Jaces towel around her body. She grabbed up her underwear and his shirt and left the room, to find Jace had fallen back asleep. She smirked as she thought of her plan and dropped her clothes, carefully standing up on the bed. She stood her legs either side of him, and with no warning dropped down on his. His eyes flew open in surprise and he cleared his throat.
"What the-"
"You fell asleep babe."
You you decided to jump on me. Straddle me-" he checked her out, "pretty much naked." Clary hadn't thought that through.
"Yes, unintentionally but yes."
"I wish you always woke me up like this babe."
"I bet you do. Come on, we have to go."
"Fine." Jace pouted but cheekily leaned up and kissed Clary before chucking her down on the bed beside him. She landed with a shriek of laughter and fake glared at him as he got out of bed and pulled his tee shirt off. He gave her a wink before he closed the door behind him in the ensuite. While Jace was in the shower, Clary got a fresh towel for him and got dressed, also attempting to make his bed for him. He came out with the towel hanging low on his hips and his chest glistening with water droplets.
"Well hello there."
"Hey yourself. Like what you see?"
"Love it. I attempted to make your bed."
"I can see that. Thanks babe, I know how much that must have hurt."
"Haha, your so funny. Hurry up and put some clothes on, though I will, my mother probably wont appreciate you arriving in your towel."
Jace laughed and quickly let the towel go, pulling on black boxers and black jeans. A grey tee shirt lay folded on the top so he shrugged that on and picked up some nikes.
"Ready babe?"
"Sure thing. Do you want your wallet and phone?"
"Oh yes please."
Clary chucked him his wallet and grabbed his phone of charge, pushing it into his hand. Together they walked downstairs, where Stephen was sitting in a suit eating breakfast and reading the newspaper.
"Hey Clary, Jace."
"Hi Dad."
"Hi Mr. Her- Stephen." Stephen grinned at them and went back to his reading.
"DO you want anything to eat before we go Clare?"
"Can we just get maccas, before or after of course."
Jace chuckled. "Sure thing, how you eat that and stay that thin is beyond the worlds knowledge." Clary blushed and picked up her phone from the bench where she had put it the night before, yelled at goodbye and thank you over her shoulder and followed Jace out to his car.
"Ready to do this?"
"Yeah, I'm really nervous though."
"Understandable."
"What do you think she'll do?"
"I really don't know. I hope she understands on some level."
"I know." Jace pulled out of the driveway and drove the short trip to Clary's house. "So if she doesn't ask…"
"We leave it. I like it. And then we go get maccas."
"Deal."
Jace and Clary climbed out of the car and made their way up the manicured lawn to the front door where Clary pushed it open and motioned for Jace to go in. Inside it was eerily quiet and Clary looked but could not find her mother anywhere. She walked further in and discovered she wasn't in the kitchen or any of the living rooms.
"I have no idea where she is."
"Awesome, that means we can-"
"Yes. Thankyou for calling me Celine, will do. Thanks for telling me. Okay, goodbye." Clary and Jace shared a worried glance. Jocelyn entered the kitchen and did a double take.
"Oh, hey Clare, Jace."
"Hello."
"Hi Jocelyn."
"How was your 'sleepover', Clary?" Jocelyn said with a raised eyebrow and a frown. Clary swallowed loudly.
"Yeah. It was good."
"Anything, exciting happen, anything you want to tell me?" Jocelyn asked, moving towards the coffee machine in the corner.
"Celine told you I take it."
"Yes she did. This, was exactly why I didn't want you to sleep in the same bed!"
"Mum, I'm sorry ok, we didn't mean for it to happen."
"Im sure you didn't Clare, let me guess; you couldn't help it."
"Well…"
"He was right there, so you just had to-"
"It was not because he was right there! We were thinking about it for a while and this accidentally happened!" Jace stood awkwardly by Clarys side and Jocelyn made her coffee.
"Thinking about it for a while? Haven't you done it before?"
"Oh my gosh, no!"
"So this was the first time this happened." Jocelyn said, her voice dripping with sarcasm.
"Yes! Mum I'm in a mature relationship, we both felt we were ready, so we took it to the next level I cant help the outcome!" Clary yelled.
"What are you talking about?" She questioned, an eyebrow raised.
"What? What were you talking about?"
"The position Celine caught the both of you in this morning, quote her words 'kissing quite heatedly'."
"Oh."
"What were you talking about?"
"Something different."
"Obviously. Do tell."
"Im right."
"Clarissa Morgenstern, tell me right now."
"Jace wants to tell you."
"No, I really don't." Jace intervened. Jocelyn turned her icy glare to Jace.
"Jace Herondale, tell me. Right now whatever this is."
"Well, you see,"
"No, not yet."
"Wouldn't you rather hear it from your daughter?"
"One of you, had better tell me right now or so help me-" Jocelyn roared. Jon stumbled down the stairs in only trackies, yawning and rubbing his eyes.
"What is with all of the yelling? Its Saturday morning."
Everyone ignored him and Jocelyn looked at Clary and Jace, raising her eyebrows almost comically. "Im waiting."
"Er-" Clary began nervously. "Jace may have gotten me-"
"Hey!" Jace looked at Clary with a joking glare. "Im gonna get in deeper shit if you say it that way!"
"Deal with it." Clary said childishly and poked her tongue out.
"This is boring. Im going back to bed." Jon said through a yawn, causing Jace to visibly relax.
"Well you see; Jace might have gotten me pregnant."
Jocelyn, who had been taking a sip from her coffee went pale and dropped her mug, the coffee spilling over the tiles.. "When you say might have.."
"Jace definitely got me pregnant."
Jocelyn went silent, her mouth set in a firm line. "How long?"
"I found out on Friday."
"You've known a whole week?"
"Yeah. Don't worry, Jace only found out yesterday too.
"Not a good time for jokes Clary. DO you two have any idea what you've done?"
"That wasn't a joke and we're getting an idea."
"Honestly? I don't think you really have the slightest idea what you've done. I did have my suspicions earlier but I honestly did not think you would be that stupid."
"Okay."
"And Jace? I trusted you with my daughter, you go get her pregnant, like hell that's ok with me."
"Im sorry Mrs. Morgenstern, really I am. We did use protection, but I guess we had a," Jace cleared his throat, "malfunction."
"Well I don't want; no, actually. Please leave."
"Wait what? You cant be serious."
"I am. Not get out of the house."
A/N Cliffhanger. Yes that happened. So please review/fav/follow, actually if I get 15 reviews, I'LL UPDATE TOMORROW! so you dont have to wait as long to discover the secrets. But seriously reviews make me happy. Now, I'm seriously lacking stories to read, anyone have suggestions? They can be actual stories, or even fanfics from a MI/PJ/Divergent type genre. Thanks heaps for reading, I hope you enjoyed it!
