Hey guys, thanks for the reviews. Sorry for the wait. I had the chapter half written but then it deleted and I was too tried to do it last night.

Did anyone else see the pictures of Maci Bookout's baby daughter, Jayde? She's so cute! She's a perfect mix of Maci and Taylor.

Chapter 12.

*CLARY'S P.O.V.*

"Is everything okay?" I ask the doctor, as she walks into my hospital room. When I got here, a nurse took me to anti-natal, where I was given an ultrasound and then taken to a small hospital room to rest.

"You have a small tear in the placenta, it's not too serious, and it should heal by its self. Just ensure you get plenty of rest." The doctor says.

"Can I go home now?" I ask, rubbing my eyes.

"Not yet, I want to keep you in overnight just to be sure. I'll go discuss your pregnancy with your parents." The doctor says. Shit no!

"No! Please, I want to keep my pregnancy private. I'm going to place the baby for closed adoption. Only my parents' friend, my boyfriend and a few of my friends know. Please, my parents' friend has a lot of experience with medicine and he's agreed to help me through the pregnancy. Please." I say, terrified the doctor will tell mom and dad about the baby.

"Okay Clarissa, as long as I know you have professional help, I have no concerns and therefore cannot tell your parents without your permission." The doctor says. Thank God.

"Thank you." I quietly say.

*10 minutes later*

I hear the door open. I look up, expecting to see mom or dad, but instead see Jace. His blonde hair dishevelled. He has bags under his golden eyes. He's still dressed in his pyjamas and looks extremely worried.

"Clary! Oh Clary are you okay? What happened?" He asks, rushing over to me.

"I have a small tear in my placenta, but the doctor says it's not too serious and should heal by itself, I just need to rest."I tell him.

"Oh I'm so sorry I was such an asshole earlier on! I don't care that you told Simon about our baby, before you told me. I just care that you're okay. I love you." He says, hugging me tightly. I hug him back and say

"I love you too. I forgive you."I tell him.

"What are you going to tell your parents?" He asks, sitting beside me.

"That I have a stomach bug and I have my period." I say.

"Good idea. Do you think you'll be fit to meet Max and Sophia in a few days?" He asks. I'm sure I will, as long as I really rest up in the meantime.

"Yeah, I think so. I love you." I say. Jace smiles and kisses me.

"I love you too." He says.

*3 days later*

"So... what did you think of them?" Jace asks me, as we walk toward the institute to see Izzy and Alec. We just met with Sophia and Max. They seem nice.

"They're nice..." I quietly say.

"But... I don't think they're right to raise our baby." He says. He took the words right out of my mouth.

"Yeah, I agree. I just... I don't know, I just don't feel that they're right for our baby." I say.

"So we're back to square one." Jace says, letting out a small sigh.

"Yeah, I guess so." I say.

*10 minutes later*

"How did the adoption meeting go?" Alec asks Jace and me, as he, Izzy, Jace and I sit down in the main room of the institute.

"The couple were nice, but we just don't think they're right for our baby." I say.

"Oh, well you've got like four more months though, right?" Izzy asks.

"Yeah, I guess so." I say.

"Do you know what you're having?" Alec asks.

"A boy." Jace quickly says.

"No Jace, we're having a girl." I insist.

"Did you find out from the doctor?" Izzy asks.

"No, but I know it's a girl." I say.

"You're wrong." Jace says. Does he want me to slap him?

"Jace, shut up." I say.

*1 week later*

"So you and Jace are going to through an agency now?" Izzy asks. She's coming over to mine to show me other ways to hide my pregnancy.

"Yeah, most closed adoptions are handled like that. Our social worker sent us some information on adoption and a few... albums, of adoptive couples to choose from." I say, as we step inside the house. "Hey mom." I say. It's not until I look at her, I see she's holding my scan picture. Shit...

"Clarissa Adele Graymark, why did you not tell me you're pregnant?"

Hope you enjoyed. Please review.
