Hey guys! I have some big news, once this chapter is up I delete OWWV. I have failed to keep up with it and the reason why is because I have some personal things and I have gotten bored with it. I hope you understand and if you do, thank you. On the other hand; I am sick in bed so I thought that I might as well write to make the most of it! Also, that means I might be posting later today! I hope you enjoy!

Jaces POV

I walk back to me and Clary's house from a morning run and unlock the door. As I walk in Clary is at her art easel trying to paint a bouquet of flowers, Max by her side with scattered crayons and papers as he lay on his tummy drawing. I stroll behind Clary, sweaty yet happy, and kiss her cheek.

"Daddy! Daddy! Daddy!" Max looks up at me with tufts of red hair, his roots blonde, and big green eyes. He is wearing a blue train shirt and just a diaper on, he raises his picture. A picture of our family as stick figures, I smile at how bright he is for being 2.

"Good job bubba!" I pick him up, "We should put this on the fridge…-

"Jace, Jace!" I fling my eyes open with a start, my heart thundering at an incredibly fast pace. Clary had dry eyes with bed head, still in her jammies. She looks nervous and wipes away a sudden tear down my cheek. "It was just a dream." she says calmly. I lean back on the sweaty pillow. Just a dream.

I close my eyes and lightly begin to sob. Clary and I decided to stay at her mom and dad's place until we can fully move in. She strokes my hair softly as she gently lays on top of me, her plump lips placing kisses on my jaw. "Daddy! Daddy! Daddy!" Max's soft, innocent, and loving voice rings in my head, an unstoppable alarm.

"How long did it take for you to wake me?" I ask, hoping it wasn't long. My voice cracks to dryness in the process, my mouth open. I realized I was breathing with my mouth open, I close it, I always do that whenever I get stressed or scared.

"Only like a minute or so. You started ruffling and panting, soon enough you were saying his name." she whispered, I ever so gently push her head up and kiss her lips. "Wanna talk about it?" she asks kindly.

"It's best that you shouldn't be on your tummy." I say, but that looked like an excuse to not talk about it. Realization flashes on her face as she turns over quickly, rubbing her tummy. "Yea, sure." i mumbled. She looks over at me contently as I start flashing back to the vivid dream. "Well, I just came home from a morning run and you were painting with Max next to you. I kissed you and Max showed me a picture he was drawing. He was so beautiful Clary-anyways, I picked him up then... I woke up." I say quietly, she cups my face with her hands and kisses me.

Her lips tasted of fresh dew early in the morning, a sunset rising, the nighttime awakening. Powerful in it's own way. Special. A pounding noise came from the door, a knock. I lightly break the kiss, and sit upward.

"Come in!" Clary yells out, in a green silk camisole that didn't fit her anymore so it only covered half of her tummy with some sort of gray sweats. Her dad came in with his hair ruffled and bags under his eyes. "Dad? What's up?" Clary asked, sitting up with obvious concern, I was wondering myself too.

"Your mom was up all night making something for you. She made me stay up too, she wants to present the work to Jace first." he says. I was surprised. Me? I looked at Clary, a approval sort of look. She laughs, her porcelain skin glowing as the sun that came from the window, through the door where Luke was hit her.

"Go ahead." she waves her arm toward the door, just smiling now. I peck her on the cheek as I lazily stand up. "He'll be just one moment Clary." Luke says. She rolls her eyes as she reaches for her phone, I walk out the room and look at Luke, a little nervous.

"Is everything alright?" I ask furrowing my eyebrows.

"Everything is fine. I was just wondering about you and Clary before I actually show you what Jocelyn did." he asks, "I mean, how are you guys holding up with Max?"

"Oh." This caught me off guard, Max calling me replaying in my head that just made me want to sit alone in the dark and escape. "Good. You know how Clary was for a little bit of it but she's hanging with it. I've been alright with it, though for some reason it seems to now be settling on me." I say.

"I was the same way with Jocelyn." he says, my eyes widen. "Oh, this is actually something I wanted to say to you when everything with Max happen, but, I knew you were already going through a hard time. Jocelyn had a miscarriage before she had Clary, it was a boy and we were going to name him Sebastian. The reason he died in the womb is still a mystery, we just didn't want to put that pressure on Clary. We were going to tell her but then we saw she was pregnant and didn't want her to think of that as a new coming mom." he says.

"I'm very sorry, I completely understand what it's like for a dad to go through that." I say, I guess extra points go to Luke.

"Anyways you wanna see?" he asked changing the subject, sorrow written on his face. Making him look older, gloomier, and more tired than he already is. I nod as he leads me past the living space into a room next to the bathroom.

"Hey, isn't this her painting room?" I asked, he gave me a quick tight smile and opened the door.

Isabelle's POV

"Hey Mags, do you have any cheese?" I ask opening his fridge, looking through all the leftover chinese food cartons, "Swiss to be exact." I yell.

"No, just old rice and tangerine chicken." he points out, appearing behind me. "You know since Jace and Clary are gone, you can leave now." he said, my breath hitched when I realized why there was so much take-out. Him and Alec must be having problems, not broken up, but, problems.

"Okay, so no swiss cheese, but what about Alec? Where's Alec." I say turning me heel toward him with my lips in a flat line. He flinched, and I nor anyone that I know has actually seen Magnus flinch.

"Alec?" he asks abruptly, as if he didn't mean to say his name. "Nothing, everything is fine. He's just… out." I look at his sideways, my eyelids covering half of my eyes.

"Magnus, Alec doesn't just disappear. I know where he is in fact, he technically is out at the moment but he says he'll be going to see Jace later." I say, "Now does that sound like Alec to you? I mean sure they are best friends n' all but, with Clary 7 months prego. He's avoiding you." He tilts his head with a smirk.

"Fine, you wanna talk about boyfriends? Where's Simon, huh?" he said, confidence and snarkiness dripping in his voice. I stand upright and close the fridge door.

"Simon and I?" I ask, my voice raising 4 octaves. Woah, where did that high pitched noise come from? That only happens when Sephora has a new collection, or Demi Lovato has a new clothesline.

"Ahh, so you guys are a thing?" he walks over to the couch with a smirk still planted on his face. I put my hands and fists, crushing my lips together until they went white and walked over to him. "No." I say flatly, maybe a bit angry.

"See! You don't want me talking about your boyfriend, don't talk about mine." his eyebrow twitched. "Simon has nothing to do with this conversation, he's not even here so leave him out of this!" I yell out defensively. Magnus knew he pushed my buttons right and his lips parted with a tinge of a smile, I absolutely hate when he is right.

"Oh Izzy, Izzy, Izzy. There is one thing having a one night stand. I mean, he's a scrawny guy with a horrible band name. I understand you wanna help him out a little bit for what I'm guessing his first time. But all the sneaking out, being gone 24/7 sounds like a little bit more than 15 night stand ups…..in a row." he said, flames burst up inside me. I only felt this defensive if someone said something about my family.

"EY!" I yell at him, my eyes narrowing, "Simon is an amazing, funny, and handsome guy! He's not scrawny, he's lean and fit! Something you'll never get. He could get any lady he ever wanted, for heck's sake he caught my attention! They are not stand ups. You wanna know what actually happens? Star Wars movie marathons, talk about politics and how messed up the world is, popcorn and endless supply of soda and doritos! He likes me without my makeup, without my dresses, without my hair done! He likes me with my walls down, freely laughing like a maniac, and my hair in rats with pajamas on! Might as well be the only one!" I steam out, my breaths heavy.

I just realized what I just said and slouched on the couch next to Magnus. He slithered his arms around me as I rest my head on his shoulder. I never knew I could care for someone so much other than Alec, Jace, Clary, and Magnus. My eyes water and my throat grows dry.

"I'm sorry babe. I didn't realize you had such feelings for Stewart." he says.

"Simon." I correct him, my voice cracking in the process. Even though I feel a little embarrassed, it's nice that I got that off of my chest.

Jaces POV

Luke fully pushes the door open and on the taped up wall were letters that spelled out Abigail with a different girly design on them. My face lights up at I turn and see a picture of Clary, me, and Abby in very white crunchy snow. We all wore black jackets which made us stick out, all of our hair doing the same, I had Abby on my waist as I threw a snowball at Clary. Clary looked like she was trying to block her head while Abigail looked like she was bubbling over in laughter.

"Oh my…" I smile as I walk over to it and see Jocelyn behind the easel. "Jocelyn- I don't even know what to say? This i-is amazing!" I say.

"A simple thank you will do." she smiles at me, dropping a pencil, "Look, I'll admit I wasn't very happy when I found out Clary was pregnant and I knew she suspected that but I told myself I'd do anything to help out. Luke helped me realize that I myself got pregnant at Clary's age, I had very few people and I hated that feeling. I am now determined to make her pregnancy at happy as can be." she says freely.

"Thank you Jocelyn," Is all I was able to get out of my mouth.

So yea. I'm sorry this chapter is really lame, a filler one I guess. I'm just not feeling 100% unfortunately. If you guys were wondering about Isabelle going out to Simons and her feelings there you go, next one will have some Sizzy fluff so don't worry! Thank you for reading, I hope you enjoyed! Byyyyyyyyyyyye! :*
