Hey guys, I can't believe I got the 105 reviews in just one day! I was thinking about them all day in school and whilst doing homework and stuff so thanks so much! Sooo guys... IT'S MIDTERM! THANK THE ANGEL! Anyway here's chapter 21.
Disclaimer I don't own TMI or any of the characters. Cassandra Clare does.
Chapter 21 A bad scare.
LUKE'S P.O.V.
I sit in the living room the in Magnus' with my arm around Jocelyn. Both of us are so worried about Clary and the baby. If- the angle forbid- she had a miscarriage she wouldn't be able to cope. Neither would Jace. I'm so worried about Clary, I love her so much, she's my baby girl and I would do absolutely anything for her.
"Luke, do you think Clary and the baby are going to be ok?" Jocelyn asks quietly, concern in her voice. I sigh, I know I need to be honest with Jocelyn, and honesty is I don't think everything will be ok.
"No." I say quietly.
"Me either." She whispers. I take her other hand in mine and stroke it gently with my thumb.
"No matter what happens, good or bad we'll be there for Clary and Jace." I tell her gently.
"Of course we will." Jocelyn says.
Brother Zachariah arrived shortly after Jocelyn and I and he's currently in Magnus' room with Jace Magnus and Clary. Alec left to go to the institute to tell Maryse and Robert what's happened, since there was no response from the phone call.
There's a soft knock on the door and it opens to reveal Jonathan. Jace must've called him.
"Hey mom, Luke." He says quietly to us. Jocelyn smiles at her son.
"Oh Jonathan." She says getting up and hugging him. That surprises us both. Jonathan hugs his mother bag with slight hesitation.
A few minutes later Jocelyn pulls back and smiles at Jonathan.
"How are Clary and the baby?" He asks.
"No word yet." Jocelyn says. Jonathan nods and he and Jocelyn sit down.
*Clary's P.O.V*
I come to and hear two voices talking in hushed tones. My eyes flutter open and I see Jace's handsome face and golden eyes looking at me with concern. Sitting on my other side is Magnus, and standing beside him is brother Zachariah.
Jace smiles weakly at me.
"Hey Clary." He says quietly.
"Jace... the baby." I say quietly. Jace smiles.
"He's ok." He whispers. I can't believe it! I was so convinced I had miscarried again. Tears of joy pour down my face.
"He is?" I ask in disbelief. Jace smiles and nods.
"Yeah, he is." He says. I laugh in relief. Jace bends down and softly kisses me. Both of us are crying with relief and joy that our baby is ok.
"You gave us quiet a scare Clary." Brother Zachariah's voice echo's in my head. This is the first time a silent brother has called me 'Clary' instead of 'Clarrisa' but I prefer 'Clary' to 'Clarrisa' anyway.
"Indeed you did young missy, and don't you dare scare us like that again." Magnus says. I smile weakly at him.
"Jace, will you help me sit up please?" I ask.
"Of course." Jace says. He gently helps me up but it hurts a lot. I gasp and put my hand on my bump. "Clary, are you ok?" Jace asks, alarmed.
"Just... hurts." I say. Jace looks to Magnus worry on his face.
"Don't worry; it's normal to be a little sore after what's happened." Magnus says. It's just now that I realise that I don't know what actually happened, what caused the pains, bleeding and passing out.
"Magnus, what exactly happened? I mean what caused the pains, the bleeding and passing out?" I ask.
"You had a slight placenta abruption." Magnus says. I look at him confused my hands resting on my bump.
"I don't understand." I say.
"I thought you wouldn't. It means that your placenta separated from your womb, but not too much, luckily the baby was only deprived of nutrients and such for a few minutes. I've used my magic-and most of my energy- to bring the placenta back into the place, but it might move again so I'll have to check to see if it's in place by doing a spell that allows me to see the baby, every two weeks or so until you deliver. I'll give you a potion to take to help, but it probably won't be needed, but I'm still giving it to you to be on the safe side." Magnus says.
That's a lot to take in, but from what Magnus is saying, it seems everything's gonna be ok.
"So... everything's ok?" I ask. Magnus smiles and nod.
"But to keep the bleeding at low you can't do anything stressful for the next day or two, you're basically on bed rest, but you don't have to stay in bed all day, and you'll be back to normal within a few days, hopefully." Magnus says. I smile.
"Thank the angel." I say. Magnus smiles.
"Why don't we go tell Clary and Jace's parents that everything's ok, give them time alone, Brother Zachariah." Magnus says.
"Yes, that's a good idea Magnus." Brother Zachariah says. Without another word they leave.
"Oh Clary, I was so convinced I was going to lose you both! After you passed out you started bleeding heavily and I thought 'this is it, I'm going to lose the two people I love most in the world, my wife and my son, and I haven't even met my son yet!' It was horrible Clary!" Jace says, tears pouring down my face. My heart breaks, I've never seen Jace so weak and sensitive like this.
"Oh Jace." I say. I softly press my lips to his. I move over in the bed and Jace crawls onto the bed beside me. He lowers his head to my bump and starts kissing it over and over. He pushes my shirt up and kisses my bump repeatedly.
"I love you so much Jack, I love you and your mommy so much baby boy, so, so much." He whispers, tears still rushing down his face. Poor Jace, this must've been a nightmare for him too. Suddenly I remember that Jace said he wanted to sing to Jack so he would sleep for me.
"Why don't you sing to him Jace? Like you said you wanted to?" I ask. Jace smiles up at me with watery eyes.
"Yeah, yeah I'd love to." He says.
"Were having a baby, my baby and me
You'll read it in Winchell's
That we're adding a limb to our family tree
We're pushing our carriage
How proud I will be
There's nothing like marriage
Ask your mother and father and they'll agree
He'll have toys, baby clothes
He'll know he's come to the right house
By and by, when he grows
Maybe he'll live in the White House
Our future gets brighter
But definitely
We're having a baby
We're having a baby
We're having a baby
My baby and me" He sings quietly while rubbing my bump.
I have tears in my eyes because of sweet he is. "Did you like it?" Jace asks quietly.
"Oh Jace! I loved it! It was perfect!" I say. Jace smiles broadly at me.
"I can sing it to him every night if you want, mom told me it would help his brain develop, apparently dad used to sing to Izzy, Alec and Max when mom was pregnant with them." Jace says. I smile; I would love it if he sang to our baby every night.
"I'd love that Jace." I say and softly press my lips to his. Jace smiles and cups the side of my face with his hand.
"I love you so much." He says, kissing me and leaning his forehead against mine.
"I love you too." I say.
*10 minutes later*
There's a soft knock on the door and mom and dad walk in, holding hands. Mom smiles at me and walks over and embraces me.
"How are you feeling baby?" She asks as Luke embraces me.
"Ok, a bit sore, but I'll be ok." I say.
"You gave us such a scare." dad says.
"So Magnus and brother Zachariah told me." I say.
"But you really did Clary; even Jonathan was worried sick about you." Mom says. I didn't know Jonathan was here, to my surprise I'm eager to see him.
"Oh John's here? Where is he?" I ask.
"Uh, I donno, he was with us a few minutes ago." dad says, looking behind him.
"He's probably gone for a walk or something, I'll call him later." Mom says. I nod.
"How are you Jace? This whole event must've been tough on you as well." dad says.
"Before Clary woke up and for a while after I was a complete mess, I was convinced I was going to lose her and the baby, but now I can plainly see that both she and the baby are fine, I'm ok." Jace says.
"Well I'm glad your both ok." Mom says.
A few minutes later mom and dad leave and Jace and I lie down in bed.
"When Jack is born I think we should let him sleep in our bed for the first few months." Jace says. I nod, I completely agree.
"I agree." I say.
"I can sing to him if he doesn't sleep or gets colicky or anything." Jace says. I smile; I love when Jace sings to Jack, it'll be even better when he's born.
"That's a great idea." I say. Jace smiles and kisses me.
"I love you Clary." He says.
"I love you too Jace." I say.
A few minutes later Jace starts to sing to Jack again and I drift off to the sound of his voice, in his arms, safe, sound and happy.
