Clary
After we went and found the guys, they said they weren't ready that they'd meet us at The Spot. So me and Izzy went to Magnus' apartment did our little clubbing ritual of giving ourselves one last look in the mirror, teasing each other, and then headed out. Since we all planned to celebrate hard, we called a cab that way nobody would be tempted to try driving. It's a peeve of mine since my father's death was caused by a drunk driver. How people could be so reckless with their own lives and the lives of others really pisses me off.
Once we got to the club and found our table reserved for us. I love how knowing the owner has it's perks and they all know that if it's a Saturday, we're usually here. We hit the club at least once a week, it's part of our weekly routine; even if sometimes it ends up just being me, Izzy, and Magnus. I can't believe it's already been a week though.
So far tonight Alec is the only one here with us, and he hasn't been here to long. When he got here about thirty minutes ago, he told us that Bat and Maia are going to be here later. And I know Jon and Jace are going to be here, I just wish I knew when. Alec said Jon wanted to talk to Jace about something, but he didn't say what. He wouldn't even say what he talked to them about, when Izzy played detective on him.
I wish all of them would hurry up, though. I'm so excited that for the first time ever, the whole gang will be together! I feel like a child waiting on a new toy, or even in a candy store, that's how excited I am. Plus tonight should be completely drama free, at least I sure hope so. It will, won't it?
"Oh my God!" Izzy screams pulling me out of my worries and putting me into a new one.
"What's wrong?" I ask quickly as I look at her, sitting across from me.
"The song, listen!" She replies with a smile and pointing into the air with her right index finger. "Look But Don't Touch by Serayah" has just started. "It's perfect! We've got to do our dance to it, like we do in your living room!"
"Like we do at my house?" I ask with wide eyes as I stand up, grabbing her outstretched right hand. "Seriously?"
"Yep!" She says popping her p with a grin, as we walk around the table.
We both start to make our way to the dance floor, quickly. Izzy a step ahead of me, since I'm a little skeptical about this.
"WATCH OUR DRINKS!" I shout over my shoulder at Magnus and Alec, making sure they heard me over the music and crowd.
Me and Izzy get out on the dance floor and start dancing. We're doing the routine we created just for this song. I glance around and see a herd, about a dozen, of guys by a side rail by the d.j. booth, staring at us with grins on their face as they point at us. I look back to Izzy, ignoring them, and get lost in the music with her. Then it hits me...
I hope they don't start trouble tonight!
Jace
After my talk with Alec and Jon, Jon wanted to talk to me alone. So I sat down with him and we had a serious conversation in his living room. When our talk was over, we both went and got ready to go meet up with our women as well as the rest of the gang.
Things are definitely different from before I left, but it's a good different. Even though I've known the two additions to our gang since they were brought in, I've never spent time with everybody together at once; somebody was always missing do to work or being out of town. The new additions are great though. Magnus is cool as hell, which I always thought is why the girls first brought him in anyway, he just meshes with all of us very well and he makes Alec very happy. Then there's Maia, she seems like a bad ass, which makes her fit in with the females of our gang, and she makes Bat happy. Then there's the most recent change of Jon and Izzy now being a couple, just like they should have been back then. They both seem happier then they use to be, which is fantastic. And now that Clary and I are back together, everybody in our gang has somebody and that somebody makes them happy, which is awesome.
I still can't believe that Clary and I are finally back together though. I didn't think it was ever going to happen, especially not like it did. I mean, it seemed like it would be a never ending battle but I wasn't ever going to give up fighting for her. Now that, that part is over though and we are picking our lives back up where they left off, I couldn't be more ecstatic. I'm still going to fight for her, don't get me wrong, but now I won't be fighting to get her back. I'll be fighting for us just like I use to, and that makes me the happiest man around.
Now as Jon and I walk into the club I can see at least a dozen guys crowded together by the dance floor. What the hell is going on? I wonder to myself. As we get closer I can see they're looking out at the dance floor, and then I can see what they're gawking at.
I nudge Jon's arm. "Hey look!"
"Wow!" Jon says excitedly.
"Don't even think about it guys. Nobody's getting between those two." One of the guys gawking says to us.
I look at Jon as he looks at me and we grin. We look back over at the guy.
"Would you like to make a bet on that?" Jon asks the man with a smirk.
"What kind of a bet are we talking about here?" The guy asks intriguingly with an eyebrow raised and a smile on his face.
"A hundred dollars says we both can." I say as I point between the two of us.
"You're on!" The guy says confidentially. He really thinks he's going to win this bet.
He shakes our hands making the bet final. Jon and I walk out onto the dance floor, where Clary and Izzy are dancing; rolling their bodies together with the beat, basically grinding against each other to..
I just came in here to dance
I'm not lookin' for a man
Me and my best friend goin' in
Just as we get up to them we grin at each other, walk behind them, and wrap our hands around their hips, pulling them away from each other. I look at Clary smiling as I pull her away from Izzy and up against me. She stops dancing as she twists from her hips and looks back in shock with her right hand drawn back in a fist ready to swing. When she see's that it's me, she chuckles with a smile and slides her fisted hand up around my neck as she starts dancing against me and I follow her lead.
Boy you better watch ya hands
(Keep ya hands to yourself if you know what's good)
Bout to get summertime fine for the bad boys
The beat picks up and so does she, making her ass clap. I groan and she laughs but doesn't stop and I'm not going to stop her.
Damn it I
Damn it I
Damn it I look good
Don't know why these bitches hatin' on me for
Damn it I
Damn it I
Damn it I look good
Look at my body, look at my body
The beat slows back down and she turns around with the beat. She wraps her arms around me as she starts rolling her body against me and I match her moves with my arms around her.
Look at my body, look at my body Don't I look sexy, don't I look sexy
"I hope you know you're killing me." I whisper through my teeth, in her ear as we grind against each other.
She laughs but doesn't stop. "Well I didn't tell you to come out here."
"I know. But I wanted to and there's a bet going too." I admit.
"Bet? What kind of a bet?" She asks incredulously.
"That we couldn't get between you and Izzy." I confess just as the music stops.
"Really?" She asks with a laugh as she takes a step back. "And who bet you that? Magnus?"
"No one of those jokers over there." Jon says as he walks up behind Clary with Izzy wrapped in his arms.
Clary turns around in my arms, causing us to be a mirror image of them. "Come on Izzy, we've got some money to collect."
"How much?" Izzy asks with a smile as she tilts her head to the side.
"A hundred dollars." Jon says simply as we all start to walk over to the group of guys.
"Each?!" Izzy asks quickly and excitedly.
"No." I say with a laugh.
"It doesn't matter cause it's mine and Izzy's not y'alls." Clary teases.
"That's not fair." Jon says as I ask, "Why?"
"Cause you two interrupted our dance." Clary replies simply as we come to a stop in front of the guys. "Now which one is he?"
I look around at all the shocked faces and laugh when I see the guy. His jaw is dropped and his eyes look like they're about to pop out of his head from the shock. I point at him. "That's him, right there."
Clary pulls out of my arms as she takes two steps over to the guy, and holds out her hand to him. "I think you owe me and my friend some money."
The guy shakes his head slightly then looks over at me.
I nod with a smile, as I hear Jon and Izzy chuckling to my left.
The guy pulls out his wallet and hands Clary some money.
"This better be real." She says as she holds it up to dim light to inspect it.
Me, Jon and Izzy laugh at her as I shake my head slightly at her, even though she isn't looking at me.
"Thank you." She says as she brings the money down and sticks it in her pocket.
She walks back over to us smiling and right into my arms. "Can we go get a drink now?"
"Yes!" Izzy shouts. "I'm dying of thirst."
As we get to the table I see Alec, Magnus, Bat, and Maia, sitting at the table, and two empty chairs. I sit in the one to Magnus' right, pulling Clary onto my lap on the way down. There's a drink sitting in front of us and Clary's reaches for it, takes a drink and passes it back to me. I take a drink before I set it back down on the table, and wrap my arm back around her; now that I've got her back I don't ever want to let her go.
"Okay," Alec says as he stands up from beside Magnus. "Now that everybody's here, I think it's time to bring everybody up to date with all the good news."
Clary looks back at me with a smile and I smile back at her. She turns back around and I look back to Alec.
"First, well I think you guys should tell it." Alec says as he points towards me and Clary.
"Me and Jace are back together and.." She looks back at me still smiling and nods at me expectantly.
"And we're picking back up where we left." I say happily as I turn back to the others.
I hold Clary's left hand up to show Bat and Maia what I'm talking about since the others already know. Bat's eyes go wide with a toothy grin and Maia just looks shocked.
"That's great guys! I always knew you'd get back together." Bat says assuredly with his big grin still in place.
"Wow, this is big news." Maia says as she shakes her head slightly. "Congrats! When's the big day?"
"We haven't decided yet. We want to work it around everybody's schedules, so that everybody can be there." Clary explains.
"Who are you gonna have walk you down the aisle?" Maia asks curiously. "I mean you have so many to chose from."
Clary chuckles. "That's an easy choice. Jon, just like we had planned before."
Jon leans over from the seat to our left, wraps an arm around Clary and places a kiss on her forehead. "That's right and it will be an honor!"
"I'm the Maid of Honor!" Izzy blurts out excitedly.
"Of course!" Clary says with a laugh as I shake my head at Izzy with a chuckle. "Now no more wedding talk, that can all be discussed later. What else is there Alec? Are you and Magnus getting married?"
"What is with you trying to marry all of us off, Biscuit?" Magnus asks with a laugh. "First it's Izzy and Jon, now it me and Alec. Yesh, woman slow down."
"Well y'all need to get married too." Clary counters with a snap of her fingers.
"What Izzy and Jon are together now?" Maia asks confusedly.
"Oh yeah I forgot to tell you about that." Bat says as he looks over at her. "Clary told them they were a couple last night."
"Well that don't mean nothing." Maia retorts.
"It does after we all caught them making out on the beach last night." I say quickly, finally getting a word in again.
"Wait what?" Maia asks incredulously. "This happened while I was at work?"
"Yep." Clary and Izzy say simultaneously, both popping the p.
"Well it's about time!" Maia shouts.
Everybody laughs and I look over to Jon and Izzy, her sitting in his lap, and they are both laughing while blushing.
"That's what we all said too." I add in as I turn back to the others.
"Okay, okay. Now that everybody has relationship updates, Alec tell us what else there is." Izzy says trying to change the subject. You can hear it in her voice that she's also becoming impatient.
"Well as we all know, Jace is back home with us for good. So," Alec pauses and takes a deep breath. "We are going to open our own auto shop, that does basically everything, and Clary we want you to design our ads and webpage."
I can feel Clary's body tighten as Alec mentions her name. She turns and looks at me with slightly wide eyes, and her mouth slightly open.
"Are y'all sure?" She asks as she blinks a few times. I laugh to myself, she's trying to blink the shock away. "I mean why me? What if I mess up? I only have my associates degree, I don't have-"
"Clary, you're starting to ramble." I say with a laugh as I interrupt her. "You're going to do great! I'd think with some big company in New York wanting you that you'd have a little more faith in yourself. We all do! Don't we Alec?"
Clary turns back towards Alec. "You're sure? You really want me to do this? I could give you names of people better than me, if you want."
"Clarissa!" Alec says and her body tightens again. "There is nobody else we want or are willing to trust, to do this for us. You're better than all the others hands down."
"Really?" Clary asks as her body loosens back up.
"Really!" Me and Alec say in unison.
"Okay, I'll do it then." She says as she turns back to me. She gives me a small kiss. "This is what you guys were talking about earlier, huh?"
"Yeah and there's more." I say with a smirk.
"More?" She asks incredulously. "There can't be more."
I point behind her where there others are still talking. "You'll find out, just wait."
"Jonathan Christopher Herondale, you bett-" She starts.
I quickly lean up and kiss her, interrupting her just so she'll stop overthinking this like I know she is. She growls against my mouth and I laugh at her.
"Impatient." I tease against her mouth.
She pulls back with a smirk. "You are too, so just tell me."
"You'll find out, you just have to wait." I say with a knowing smirk.
"You're so evil." She says with her eyes narrowed. Then she smiles. "But I am proud of you for wanting to do this. It's not going to be easy."
"I know but as long as I've got you by my side, everything else will be fine." I tell her confidentially.
"Ditto." She says with her beautiful smile. "Us against the world!"
"Always and forever!" I say happily with a smile.
"Always and forever!" She says just as happily with a nod and a smile.
She leans down and gives me small kiss. Then she turns back around to the others.
"My mom's a lawyer so we have all the legal knowledge we need." Alec is saying.
"I'm glad you've got that covered." Magnus says.
"Can me and Magnus design y'alls outfits?" Izzy asks hopefully.
Alec looks at me and I shrug with a smile, he turns back towards Izzy's direction.
"Yes Izzy you two can design our 'outfits' if you want." Alec says using his fingers to make quotation marks when he says outfits. "That actually brings us to the rest of the good news. Jon?"
Everybody turns to look at Jon, he's smiling and so am I.
"Well," Jon says as he looks around at everybody. "It's going to be family business."
"Duh! That's not news, we all know Jace and Alec are cousins." Clary says when he doesn't say anything else.
"No Little Sister, I'm going into it with them." Jon says as he looks at Clary with a raised eyebrow. "I'm going to help with the investing, work on vehicles, weld, the whole lot."
"Are you serious?" Clary and Izzy asks incredulously in unison.
"Yeah, I'm still going to have to go back out this time so I can give my two week notice but then I'll be back for good." Jon explains with a smile that gets bigger as he speaks.
As if cued Clary jumps up as Izzy turns around and they both hug him. He laughs and hugs them back.
"Are y'all surprised?" He asks with a laugh and his arms still around them.
"YES!" The yell in unison in Jon's ears causing him to flinch; Clary's face is on his right and Izzy's is on his left.
"Are y'all happy?" He asks hesitantly but with a smile as the three are still hugging.
"Completely" Clary says as Izzy says, "Definitely."
"GROUP HUG!" I announce loudly as I stand to join them.
As I'm hugging onto them I see Alec join in, next is Bat, then Magnus, and finally Maia. This is definitely one of the happiest moments of my life.
And I know, that life will only get better as time goes on. I know that this is what our lives will be filled with from now on, happy moments. We may have some bumps along the way but together we will always fight through them and we'll always come back stronger. We will always have love for one another and we will always be family to one another, no matter what.
Life is definitely going to be good.
Clary
"Y'all are crazy you know that." Bat states as Jon and Jace arm wrestle.
"Well I want control of the remote tomorrow." Jon says with a grunt.
"You two are pitiful." Izzy tells Jon and Jace as their arms battle back and forth. "You know neither of you are going to get it anyway."
Jace glances up at her for a second. "What makes you so sure about that?"
"Cause I'll have it!" I say with a laugh. "We all know I'm the boss of the house."
"And everywhere else too." Alec says under his breath with a chuckle as he raises his beer to his mouth.
"I heard that." I say as I bring my hands to my chest, acting offended.
"Well you do play boss everywhere we go, Biscuit." Magnus adds in with a smile.
"Somebody has to make sure everybody is taken care of." I say in my defense as I reach over and grab my glass before the two spill it.
"Can't you two just give up before you break something?" Izzy asks them with a raised eyebrow.
"No!" They say simultaneously.
"Why not?" Maia asks incredulously as she brings her beer down from her face.
"Because." Jace says simply.
"Because isn't an answer." Izzy says with a scoff.
I lean over to my left where she stands and whisper in her ear. As I pull back she looks at me with a mischievous grin, and I have one to match it on my face.
"Okay." She says with the nod of her head, her grin still in place.
We bend forward, where the two are still battling back and forth, and bite their necks. I don't bite Jace hard but it's not gentle either. It's just enough to...
"WHAT THE HELL?!" Jon shouts at the same time Jace shouts, "THAT'S CHEATING!" as the two jerk their hands away from each other.
Everybody at our table laughs, as does a few onlookers from the table beside us.
"Now there's no reason for you two not to stop." Alec says teasingly.
"We can always start again." Jon says matter-of-factly with his eyebrows raised.
"And you could go home alone too." Izzy says as she puts her right hand on her hip.
"Okay, okay I get it." Jon says as he holds his hands up defensively.
Jace leans over, wraps his arms around my waist pulling me closer. He rests his chin on top of my stomach and looks up at me, pouting. "You wouldn't do that to me would you?"
I roll my eyes playfully while shaking my head slightly as I laugh with a smile on my face. "I guess I could always send you to your mom's then."
"Oh that's cold!" Alec chimes in with a laugh as everyone else is laughing.
"Yeah Clary even I've got to agree with that." Maia adds in as she laughs.
"Well in my defense, he does still kinda live there. I mean his mom doesn't even know he's moving back in yet." I say as I look over at her with my arms around Jace's neck and him still in the same position.
"Actually..." Jace pauses. I look down at him and he's looking up at me with a sly grin. "I told her before me and Jon left."
I look at him with a raised eyebrow and a half smile. I knew he was going to tell her but I thought he'd at least wait until tomorrow, when we planned to go over to take her out for lunch. Oh well the sooner the better. I tell myself.
"She was thrilled about it and said she can't wait to see her girl tomorrow." Jace says with a grin.
"Well I am her girl." I say proudly with a grin.
I love Celine to death. She's always treated me like I was her daughter, even before me and Jace were together. That was one reason I went over there so often to visit her after I had broken up with Jace, plus I missed her. Even though we weren't together I always wanted to make sure she was okay; she didn't like the fact that Jace enlisted and was always gone, and she was always worried about him. I wanted to make sure she wasn't lonely, especially after Stephen died. I wanted her to know that no matter what, I still loved her and she could always call me anytime she needed.
"That's what she said when I told her you weren't hers that you were mine." Jace says proudly with a smile.
"She not yours either." Jon teases as he wraps his right arm around my shoulders. "She's mine."
"No she's mine!" Izzy and Alec say in unison.
"Not even." Izzy argues with them. "She's mine."
"HA! Y'all just think she's yours, but she's really mine." Bat says mischievously as he slaps the table.
My eyes go wide, as they all start fussing playfully with each other over whose girl I am, and I look around at each of them. "Okay I'm everybody's girl! There it's settled now, y'all happy?"
"No!" They say simultaneously with laughter in their voices.
"You're my little sister so I win!" Jon says proudly with his arm still over my shoulders.
"That doesn't count cause she's like my little sister too!" Alec argues his case with a smile.
"Hey, she's just like a sister to me too!" Bat says playfully protesting with a smile.
"But she's my best friend and my sister!" Izzy says confidentially with a smirk.
"I've got you all beat!" Jace says proudly. I look down at him and he's smiling. "I'm the one marrying her, I'm the one that has her in everyway possible so I WIN!"
I shake my head slightly with a smile as I bend down a place a small kiss to his lips. I stand back up and look around at them all, shaking my head, again, as I do. "You guys are a damn mess, but I still love y'all anyway."
"Good! Cause we love you too!" Jon says as he places a kiss to the side of my head. He tilts his head down to my ear. "No matter what."
I pull my head back quickly and look at him in confusion, my eyebrows furrowed together.
He motions with his head away towards the dance floor. "Let's go dance."
Now I'm really confused, this isn't even one of the songs we've ever danced to together. It's 'Dierks Bentley's Home' and it's not one of our songs either. The comment and wanting to dance right afterwards, what is going on with him? He's seemed fine all night. Did I do something wrong? Did he do something wrong? Is he worried I won't still love him if he did? Because he's seriously mistaking if that's the case.
"Jace, I'm stealing my sister from you." Jon says to him with a slight smile.
"Okay just bring her back in one piece." Jace says with a laugh as he unwraps his arms from around my waist. He places his hands on my arms as I unwrap them from around his neck, his hands gliding over my skin as I pull them away, and places a kiss on the inside of my right hand. "Hurry back, I miss you already."
"I won't be gone long." I assure him as Jon grabs my left hand and tugs on it gently.
I turn and walk towards the dance floor with Jon half behind me and half beside me.
We get to the dance floor, get in our stance for two stepping, and begin to dance. I look up at him puzzled, maybe this song reminded him of something from our past. That's got to be it. I mean that could be why he asked me instead of Izzy, and it isn't like it would be the first time. So as I dance with my big brother I listen to the lyrics.
It's been a long hard ride, got a ways to go But this is still the place that we all call home
Maybe it's because I was going to leave home. Oh hell.
"Jonny, what is this all about?" I asks quietly enough that only he can hear me while looking up at him.
"Dancing duh." Jon jokes with a smile.
"You know what I mean." I say seriously as I tilt my head slightly to the left.
"I just wanted to let you know that I know why you broke up with Jace and why you were leaving." He says sadly.
"You do?" I ask skeptically.
"Yeah I had Jace tell me and-"
"Who else did he tell?" I ask quickly, interrupting him.
"Just me, I swear." He says as he pulls his right hand away from me and places it over his heart. He puts his hand back on my shoulder. "Nobody else was there."
"You can't say anything Jonathan." I say as I shake my head.
"I'm not, and I understand why you haven't said anything to anybody else." He smiles a sad smile. "But I wish you would've told me, I'm your big brother I could've helped."
"There was nothing you could've done." I say with my eyebrows raised.
"Yes there was." He says confidently.
"Oh really and what was that?" I ask incredulously with a slight bit of sarcasm.
"I could've been there for you, so you didn't have to go through it alone. I would've let you cry on my shoulder if you needed to, I could've cried with you. I could've even just sat there with you in silence if you wanted. I can probably think of a few more if you want." He says matter-of-factly as he looks in my eyes.
"You had enough to worry about with school, I couldn't bother you with my problems too." I explain.
"Clarissa you wouldn't have been bothering me. And you didn't have to go through it alone. " He says assuredly.
I smile at him sadly and lean forward, pressing my left check against his chest. "You're the best big brother ever."
He kisses the top of my head. "And you're the best little sister ever."
"I'm sorry I didn't tell you." I say against his chest as we dance.
"It's alright but know that you can always come to me about anything no matter what." He says as he looks down at my face.
"Ditto!" I say with a smile.
He pulls back from me with a smirk. "Now you ready to show these people how it's done?"
"Let's do it!" I say excitedly.
He twirls me. We starts twisting and twirling with each other to the rhythm of the song. As the song ends he dips me and we laugh.
"The unstoppable duo." I say with a laugh.
"Forever and always." He chuckles with a smile.
"Forever and always." I say with a grin.
We start to make our way off the dance floor when Jon picks me up and throws me over his shoulder like I'm a sack of potatoes, I shriek from being caught of guard.
I sure wasn't expecting that, I was expecting him to act like he was going to trip me or one of his many other tricks he likes to pull. But in this moment I know everything between me and Jonny is just fine. He's not mad at me for keeping it a secret, and I feel relieved that he knows finally. I think it may be the only real secret I've ever kept from him. I'm pretty sure at least. Either way, I know whatever comes our way that we, the unstoppable duo, will always have each others back no matter what and we'll get through it.
"Five cents a shot!" I hear Jace say as we get closer to our table.
"Don't you dare!" I yell with a laugh over Jon's shoulder. "Jonny don't let-"
"JACE!" I yell as I feel a smack on my ass.
Everybody laughs and Jon sets me down with a smile on his face as he laughs.
"Come here!" I say as I turn towards Jace putting both hands on my hips.
"It wasn't me!" He says with a smile and his hands raised defensively.
I turn towards Jon, my hands still on my hips. "Was it you?"
He shakes his head quickly with a smile. "It wasn't me either."
"Who was it?" I ask as I turn around to the others with my eyebrows raised and bringing my arms up to cross them over my chest.
Alec, Magnus, Bat, and Maia are pointing at Izzy with smiles on their faces as they chuckle, who has a big grin on her face pointing at Alec.
"Isabelle Lightwood come here." I say sternly like a parent about to get onto their child.
Her eyes go wide but she steps towards me.
I grab her face and kiss her cheek hard. "I love you!"
I hear gasps all around us and a few 'not fairs,' and I know who's they are; Jace, Jon, and Alec's.
"I love you too!" She says with a smile.
I let her face go and sit down on Jace's lap. He wraps his arms around my waist and I grab my glass of Jack and Coke off the table.
As I lift my glass to my mouth I see, just to my left, Izzy sit in Jon's lap as he wraps his arms around her waist. I look to my right where Magnus and Alec are sitting close together, and straight ahead of me is Bat with his right arm around Maia's shoulder as she has her head leaned back against his shoulder. I lean back against Jace and think, yep life is perfect now. It may not be perfect like in the dictionary but it's my perfect. And I know that no matter where life takes us, we'll always be the gang we are right now.
We'll always be family, we'll always love each other, we'll always celebrate the good times together, and even when one thinks we don't need it...
We'll always be there for them!
Well this is the end of this installment my friends, I really hope you enjoyed!
Thank you all so much for reading!
Thank you all my lovely reviewers! And as always, let me know what you thought of course! MWAH!
I'm currently trying to figure out which way I want to go with High School Sweethearts 2. I have so many different ideas for it plus my kids are out for summer vacation so it's taking a little longer than I'd like. I had an entire chapter wrote for it but it somehow managed to disappear thanks to my youngest, and I can't get it back. But I wasn't even sure that I wanted to go that way anyhow, I was just playing with the idea to see if I liked it and what all would come to me. Anyhow, what would you like to see as a second installment, besides a wedding and a baby or two? Haha. I've been toying with those ideas too but I want at least a little more story told before. So, let me know. It may very well be one of the ideas I have and could help me with my process. This...
Jace is still busy with trying to get the business going, and Clary is getting ready to start school. But when she refuses to have a birthday party, he decides to throw her one anyway. Will he be able to juggle it all? How will she react? Will there be any other surprises?
^Is the idea I was playing with. Would you be interested? Or would you like to see something else?
KB: You're welcome! I'm glad you have enjoyed this story so much, as well as Sweet Redemption! I love how you got excited when she mentioned me! I was to even though she told me she was. Haha. We are both super excited to be working on that story together. Once you get a new account you are going to have to let me know.
