Hey guys, thanks for all the reviews, follows, favourites, follows etc.
Sorry it's been a while since I updated but I'm really running out of ideas for this story, really badly.
I hope you enjoy this chapter.

Chapter 10.
*CLARY'S P.O.V.*
By the angel, can this really be true? Magnus can really make Simon mortal?
"Really?! You're not joking?" Simon asks.
"Simon I would never joke about something like this. It's not certain that this spell will work but it is certainly worth a try. It hasn't been performed in at least a century, as far as I know. If it does work you can undergo ascension to become a shadowhunter- if you wish." He says.
"Of course, yes! When can the spell be done?" Simon asks.
"It will take a while to prepare and you too will have to prepare yourself for it. It will be very painful and there will be side effects for a few days, weeks even, but it will be worth it." He says.
"This is fantastic! I have to go tell Izzy!" He says, leaping off the couch and rushing upstairs. I grin broadly. I'm so happy for him, he deserves this.
"Were you purposefully looking for a spell to make him mortal?"I ask Magnus.
"Not really, I was just flipping through it to see if there was any spell that could help Will with his heart- if it is weak- and I found that spell. I had to tell Simon, I know he hates being immortal and I don't want to see him going through loosing everyone, it almost killed Tessa, I can't let it do the same to Simon." He says.
"Is there any word on Will's heart?" I ask. Magnus shakes his head.
"At this stage we may not know until he's born." He says. I feel so bad for Magnus and Alec, they don't deserve this.
"I'm sorry Mags, you and Alec really don't deserve this." I tell him. He smiles.
"Thank you darling. Is everything going alright with your pregnancy?" He asks.
"Pretty much, despite the morning sickness." I say.
"Good, I'm glad."He says. Just then there's a cry from the baby monitor in my hand. Jack's awake.
"I bet he just wants more milk." I say, pushing myself off the couch.
When I get into Jack's room Jace is already there, with a bottle of milk.
"How did you get that milk so fast?" I quietly ask.
"I had just finished making a bottle for later tonight when he started crying, I got up here so quickly because I don't have a baby bump in my way." He responds just as quietly.
"Lucky for you."I say. He grins as he turns around and walks over to me.
"Want to go to bed?"He asks. I nod. He slips his hand into mine and we go into our room.
"When are we going to ask Tessa to be Lucy's godmother?" I ask Jace, after we crawl into bed.
"We keep forgetting don't we?" He asks. I nod.
"Maybe we could invite her to lunch tomorrow and ask her?" He suggests. I nod, I like that idea.
"Yeah that sounds like a good idea." I say.
"I'll call her in the morning."He says. I nod and snuggle into his chest. "Goodnight Clary." He whispers, kissing the top of my head.
"Night..." I mumble, already falling asleep.
*The next morning*
I'm awoken to an unfamiliar pressure on my chest. My eyes flutter open and I see Jack looking at me with his big golden eyes. I smile at him.
"Hey cutie." I whisper.
"Mommy, I tired." He whispers back.
"Yeah? You wanna sleep in with me and daddy?" I ask. He nods.
"Okay."I say, lifting up the blankets slightly. Jack crawls in beside me and cuddles up to my chest. He places his hand on my bump.
"Baby's in there." He says. I smile at how smart he is.
"That's right, your little sister." I tell him, running my hand through his red curls, relaxing him until he eventually falls asleep. I follow shortly after, with Jack curled up in my arms.
*3 hours later*
I'm awoken to the sun streaming in the window and onto my face. I open my eyes and squint at the brightness of the room. My eyes land on Jace, sitting beside me in bed. I smile softly at him.
"Hi." I whisper.
"Hey, how you feeling?" He asks.
"Okay I guess. No nausea as of yet."I say.
"That's good."He says. I nod. "When did Jack come in here?" He asks. I look down at Jack who looks to be waking up.
"This morning. I think he wasn't able to go back to sleep in his bed so he came into us for comfort."I say. When Jack sees Jace his little face lights up.
"Daddy!" He happily exclaims, crawling over to him.
"Hey buddy, did you have a nice cuddle with mommy?"He asks. Jack nods. "That's good."Jace says.
A while later we get up and go downstairs to get some breakfast. John is there, along with Simon. Surprisingly they get along quiet well.
"Hey guys." I say, putting Jack in his highchair as Jace starts to make breakfast.
"Hey." Simon says.
"Morning." John says.
"Jace, I'm going to call Tessa to see if she wants to go to lunch with us today." I say.
"I already did, before you woke up. She said she would love to. We're meeting her at 1:00 in Taki's, is that alright?" Jace asks. I nod.
"Perfect." I say.
"Do you want me to look after Jack for you, then?" John asks.
"Oh that'd be great, thanks." I say.
"No problem." He says.
"Are you okay? You look really pale." Simon says.
"I am? Oh, well I'm okay thanks. Though I'll probably throw up, after I eat." I say, rubbing my bump.
"You never keep much down; maybe you should see brother Zachariah."Simon says.
"No, I'm fine it's just morning sickness, Si." I say.
"Yeah but that's what you said when you were pregnant with Jack and then within the week you had lost so much weight and you weren't able to keep anything down, Magnus had to carry you to bed." Simon says.
"Why wasn't I told this?" Jace asks, turning around to face me.
"I thought Alec told you." I say.
"Clary I agree with Simon, you're always being sick, you need to be checked over before you end up like you were."Jace says.
"But Jace it really is only nausea, it's normal."I say.
"I won't believe that unless brother Zachariah tells us. I'm just trying to protect you Clary, and Lucy." He says, walking over to me and taking my hand in his. I sigh quietly, I know how protective Jace is and he's only trying to help.
"I know, I'll ask brother Zachariah to check me over, but after the ultrasound, okay?" I say, trying to compromise with Jace. He nods.
*2 hours later*
"Thanks again for minding Jack for us John."I say. Jace and I are just about to leave for lunch with Tessa, to ask her to be Lucy's godmother.
"No problem, he's a pleasure to have." He says.
"Well if you need us I have my phone with me so just call me." I say. John nods.
"Okay, see you guys later." He says.
"Bye."I say. We've already said goodbye to Jack so we make our way to Taki's.
It's a gorgeous day, perfect for a walk.
"I've missed this." I tell Jace, as we walk arm in arm down through central park.
"Missed what?"He asks.
"Being alone with you and just taking a simple walk. I mean I love Jack more than I've ever loved someone before and he and Lucy are my whole word, but I've missed being alone with you." I say. Jace smiles and kisses the top of my head.
"I've missed it too." He says
We walk in comfortable silence for a while before Jace stops dead in his tracks.
"What's wrong?" I ask.
"Demon." He says. Oh crap.
"Do you have weapons?" I ask. He nods.
"Don't move until we see it, you need to get as far away as possible."He says. I nod.
A few minutes later the demon comes into view and it's clearly a Shax demon. "Clary, go, go call Alec, Isabelle and John, tell them I need backup." He says. I nod and start to walk out of central park, I'm worried about leaving Jace but I know I have to, to protect Lucy.
As I dig my phone out, I hear Jace scream at me.
"Clary, look out!" He shouts. Before I can turn around I feel a flash of stinging, searing agony across my back, side and stomach. My whole world turns to agony and I can only think of the pain. I fall to the ground and soon all I can see is dark spots and all I can hear is a ringing in my ears. Then I pass out into darkness.
I hope you enjoyed, please review.
Love you all.
