Hey, beauties! I'm back for the second update of the year! Sorry, I meant for it to be sooner, but I have had a fucking full on past six weeks or so. There's been quite a few big events that have happened, a couple not to so great, but things are balancing back out. The biggest thing was a high speed car crash that me and my husband were in, but luckily, no one was hurt too badly. There were good things too, though, I've been to a few concerts, the highlights were Eminem and Drax Project. I think this is the first weekend I feel back on my feet, so I though it was the time to update!

I hope everyone's start of the year is going well, and I hope you enjoy the chapter :)

Jace was halfway through his day at work when his phone vibrated in his back pocket. He didn't feel or hear it the first time, given Jem was giving them an excellent rendition of Roar by Katy Perry, complete with the dance moves which involved crawling around on the dirty floor like a tiger, and it wasn't until it buzzed again that he reached for it absentmindedly. He was laughing as Jem began to paw at Sebastian, trying to get him sing along with him, when the smile froze on his face as he saw the name on his screen.

It was a name that hadn't come up on his phone for quite some time.

Kaelie.

We should meet up. I'm only in the city for another couple of days.

Jace's thumb froze over the screen as he read her message. He re-read the message a couple of times, and in the end, he shoved his phone back into his pocket and went back to working on the engine of the Lexus that had been brought in. He could hear the guys laughing around him, especially as Jem got even louder with his singing, and part of him wished that he could join in with their fun, like he had been before, but now his mind was completely elsewhere.

He wondered if he should meet up with her. He wondered if he should even reply to the message.

They hadn't had any contact since they had broken up, and other than glimpses her as he walked past a coffee house back in New York, Saturday night was the first time that he had seen her since they had broken up. Since he had found out that she was actually sleeping with one of her fathers interns and also a law student while he was under the impression that they were an exclusive couple.

His thoughts shifted to Sebastian and Clary, and the events that had occurred later on in the evening after he had seen Kaelie at the club. The kiss that he had shared with Clary, and the whole lot more that he had shared with Sebastian. It had been incredible, everything that had happened once they had all gotten home. And then there had been Clary, in the corner of the room, and those bright red underwear that she had been wearing.

They shouldn't change his mind.

They shouldn't be a factor.

He wasn't dating Sebastian or Clary.

If he met up with Kaelie, he wouldn't be betraying them.

"Hey, Jace!" He didn't even realize that Sebastian had been calling out to him, waving a hand in front of Jace's face to try and get his attention.

"Shit, worry," Jace blinked at Sebastian, and realized that Jon was looking in their direction as well. "What's up?"

"We're gonna go to the diner for lunch, the one down the road. You coming?" Sebastian asked, and that was when Jace also realized that they were all getting out of their overalls and Jem was in the corner, washing his hands.

"Uh," Jace just wanted to work. "Nah, I'm fine." Sebastian looked surprised at the answer, and his brow furrowed.

"You sure?" Sebastian asked, tipping his head to the side and frowning.

"Yeah, I'm good," Jace reassured him before looking back at the engine, hoping that Sebastian didn't make a thing about it. In all honesty, he wasn't that hungry anyway, but he also just felt like he needed a bit of space to think things through right now. "Just don't feel like eating right now."

"Alright," Sebastian shrugged, and even though he didn't look totally convinced, he didn't say anything else.

"We'll bring you something back," Jem clapped his hand down on Jace's shoulder as he passed him. "See you soon!" Jace grunted out a goodbye and went back to working. He tried not to think about the text message from his ex-girlfriend. He plugged his phone into the stereo and switched to a loud rock song, that bounced off the walls of the garage, and helped to distract him as he worked.

Nearly half an hour had passed and Jace knew that the boys would be back soon.

He picked up his phone and text Kaelie back.

Okay. I'll text you later, we can meet up for dinner.

The house smelt incredible when Sebastian and Jace got home that evening. Cissy was perched on the outside table as the two boys parked up their bikes and began walking toward the house, and she looked as though she didn't want to leave her perch, her nose twitching in the air at the smell of dinner, as they approached. But, of course, as they got closer, she gave them a nasty look and flounced off, disappearing into the house and down the hallway.

"Hey, baby," Sebastian called into the house as he toed off his shoes and walked in.

"Hey," Clary called back from the kitchen. She had the TV on, and it was on the music channel, playing throwback hits of the early two thousands. Jace followed Sebastian into the house a bit slower, giving the couple a chance to kiss and greet each other before he popped his head into the kitchen. His plan was to tell them that he wasn't staying for dinner, but as Sebastian walked back out of the kitchen, calling out that he had dibs on the first shower, and Jace stopped in the kitchen doorway, his plans changed. "Hey!" Clary flashed him a grin over her shoulder. "How was work?"

"Uh..." Jace was rendered completely wordless as stared at the red head, who was cutting up slices of ciabatta bread on a chopping board. Clary glanced over her shoulder when she didn't get a response from him and gave him a questioning look. "Uh—yeah! It was good!"

"That's good," Clary flashed him a smile as she turned back around. She had a little tub that was filled with garlic butter that she started spreading over the ciabatta slices. "Oh—" she seemed to click on what it was that had thrown Jace through a loop when he had first come in. "I hope you don't mind this—" she waved one of her hands at her torso. "—You left it on the couch and I always find guys hoodies more comfortable." Jace just nodded and gave her a strained smile before ducking out of the kitchen.

She was wearing a pair of shorts, which Jace only glimpsed under the long hoodie that she had been wearing.

His hoodie.

Jace knew that there was just something stupidly primal about seeing someone else in his clothing, it was ridiculous how much it turned him on. So he quickly left the room and escaped to his bedroom. Sebastian was in the shower currently, but he never took very long, and that was a good thing, because Jace already felt the need for a cold shower.

As soon as Jace heard Sebastian coming out of the bathroom, he went in, grabbing a towel from the hot water cupboard in the hall as he went. He showered quickly, waiting for himself to calm down before he turned the temperature back up. After he got out, he could hear Sebastian and Clary talking, the music was turned down to just a soft murmur in the background. He got dressed slowly and picked up his phone from where he had tossed it when he had come into his bedroom. There was a message from Kaelie, asking what time they were going to be, and where they were meeting.

"Dinners ready!" Came Clary's call from the kitchen, and the decision was made in a split second. He sent off a reply to Kaelie.

Something's come up. Won't be able to meet, sorry.

He really wasn't all that sorry, but it seemed like the polite thing to say. It's just...Clary and Sebastian were in the next room, and the dinner smelt amazing, and Clary was wearing his hoodie.

"This smells incredible," Jace said as he walked into the dining room area.

"Of course it does," Clary smirked as she handed him a bottle of orange juice and pointed to the picnic table. Sebastian was already carrying knives and forks, and then Clary walked out with two plates loaded with food. "One of you guys want to grab the last plate?" Clary suggested as she put down the two plates she was carrying onto the table and then sat down on one of the wooden seats.

"I'll grab it," Sebastian said as he went back into the house. Cissy let out a meow as she curled her way around the legs of Clary's chair and then bounced up on her two back feet, resting her front paws on Clary's thigh.

"Hey, sweet girl," Clary murmured as she reached down and scratched between Cissy's ears. Cissy meowed again and then immediately bolted when Sebastian came back out of the house carrying the last plate. It looked like she had done a lamb roast, with roast veges and home made garlic bread.

Dinner was good, and the whole environment just made Jace want to stay. After they ate, they did the dishes, Clary standing in the doorway with a glass of wine in her hand while Sebastian washed and Jace dried. It felt so normal, sort of like a family, and afterwards they moved into the lounge. Jace spread out on the couch that ran along one wall and Sebastian sat down in one of the arm chairs, his legs spread, knees apart, and Jace couldn't help the way his eyes strayed between the other mans legs before he dropped them to where Clary had chosen to sit on the carpeted floor beside Sebastian's feet, her legs stretched out in front of her.

"Alright, so we've got...Baby Driver ooooooor..." Clary was flicking through the iPad in front of her, finding a movie that she wanted to watch. "Or Wind River," she chose, and tilted her head all the way back, almost tipping it upside down as she looked back at Sebastian.

"Wind River," Sebastian chose before looking over at Jace. Jace answered a few beats late, given he was staring at the long expanse of Clary's neck that was exposed with the way that she was looking back at her boyfriend.

"Uh, yeah," he hadn't actually heard of either movie, but he didn't really care. Just being with them, feeling the warmth from their bubble was enough to make him happy. He was trying to stop himself from feeling that way, because this wasn't his, they weren't his, and he couldn't let himself get muddled up into thinking that he could be a part of what they had with each other.

"Hawkeye and Scarlet Witch," Clary said with a grin as she queued up the movie and streamed it to the TV.

"Huh?" Sebastian grunted from his seat.

"It's got Elizabeth Olsen and Jeremy Renner in it," Clary explained as she wiggled around on the floor and tipped her head back, bumping it against Sebastian's knee. The movie started, and from the way that Jace was was sprawled out on the couch, with his feet pointing toward the wall where the TV and the door to the hallway, he was directly facing the TV, and would have to turn his head to keep on looking at the couple that were across from him, which is sort of what he wanted to do, from time to time. He shifted in his spot, shoving the cushions underneath his head, so that he was partially facing the couple, but mainly toward the TV.

The movie was good, although Jace wasn't paying much attention. He was actually really tired, didn't realize it until he forced himself to stop overthinking and rest. It was getting darker outside, and Sebastian got up at some point to close the sliding door and pull the curtains closed.

He heard them talking about another movie, but he was half asleep. He was a little on the cold side, but then Cissy jumped up, and after regarding him with devilish green eyes, she curled up at his side. Another movie started, and it must have been close to eight o'clock, and Jace couldn't believe how tired he was, but then he was falling asleep again. His eyes opened a few more times, and he saw The Rock on screen, wearing bright red swimming shorts, and the hot chick from the Percy Jackson films was there as well, but then he fell back to sleep.

The next time his eyes opened, the movie was still playing, but it looked as though it was drawing to an end. There was a thin blanket over him now, and Jace idly wondered which one out of Clary and Sebastian had put it over him. He was warm and comfy, still half propped up on the couch, completely nestled into the cushions. Cissy was no longer there, and Jace's eyes began to close his eyes and roll over when he heard it.

It wasn't very loud, and the movie was still playing and it was turned up reasonably loud, which is why Jace hadn't first heard it.

Panting.

Sighing.

Skin on skin.

From the way that Jace was laying, he only had to tilt his head ever so slightly backwards so that he could see Clary and Sebastian.

He got hard in his pants almost immediately.

Clary was on Sebastian's lap, and while it was clear they were trying to keep their noise down, it wasn't completely silent. Clary had her legs on either side of Sebastian's legs, and she had her shorts and underwear hooked around one of her ankles. She was still wearing his hoodie, but it was hitched up around her stomach and Sebastian had his arm around her waist, his hand splayed out over her belly.

"Fuck...Fuck...Seb," Clary was mumbling, and her body was rising and falling limply, letting Sebastian completely control her movements. Her legs were spread wide, and Jace really, really wanted to turn his head and get a proper look at her, but he didn't want them to know he was awake.

"Ssh, baby," Sebastian murmured as he thrust up into her, making her moan and shiver. Jace didn't think he had ever got this hard so quickly in his whole life. Clary's moans started getting higher in pitch, and from experience, Jace knew that meant she was close to coming. Jace couldn't help but jerk his hips forward, and as soon as he did it, he bit down on his lip, hoping that they hadn't noticed, hoping that they wouldn't stop.

"I'm gon—I'm gonna—" Clary's words were stuttered, and Jace was biting down so hard on his lip that he was worried it might bleed.

"Come on, baby," Sebastian urged her softly. "You going to come all over my cock? And over Jace's hoodie?" That caught Jace off guard and he jerked again, his fingers curling into a fist under the blanket. "Do you wish he was awake? Awake and watching you?" Clary let out a gasp and out of the corner of his eye, he saw her moving with Jace, her feet trying to find purchase on the ground so that she could bring herself down harder on Jace.

"Shit, shit—" Clary let out a groan, and Jace could imagine what she felt like around Sebastian's cock, tight and warm, spilling down the sides of his cock.

Maybe getting some of her juices on Jace's hoodie as it kept falling back down.

Sebastian let out a guttural moan a few moment later, and Jace lifted his chin ever so slightly so that he he could see Sebastian's face, his head thrown back as he orgasmed and his fingers tightening on Clary's hips. He tried not to open his eyes fully, the lids half closed, but he wanted to see the whole picture, take it all in. So he let his eyes open up a little more, staring at Sebastian, and felt a hot shock go through his body as Sebastian tipped his head forward, meeting his eyes.

He knew that Jace was awake.

Maybe Clary did as well.

And they had still had sex.

"I'm ready for bed," Clary sighed, and Sebastian's gaze shifted, to his girlfriend.

"Alright, babe," Sebastian leaned forward and kissed her on the cheek. They shifted, Clary getting off Sebastian and picking up her shorts and underwear from where they had fallen on the floor. Sebastian got off the chair, pulling his pants up and tucking his cock back inside. Clary left the room first, and Jace got a full look at her pert ass, his hoodie still pulled up a bit around her waist. Sebastian started walking after her, but he paused in front of the TV to turn it off, plunging the room into the darkness. Jace shifted his position on the couch, his cock aching against the pants he was wearing, already planning on walking quickly down to his bedroom once they had both gone into their own room and getting himself off. Sebastian paused at the doorway, though, and even in the darkness he saw the gleam of his eyes in the darkness. "Night, Jace," he said softly.

Down to my recommendations! AM by One Direction, which I will always love. Chasing Ghosts by Against The Current, How Could I Forget by MKTO, Woke Up Late by Drax Project featuring Hailee Steinfield, and Leave Me Lonely by Hilltop Hoods. Also Cosby Sweater by Hilltop Hoods.

In the TV series/movies area...Hm, Tidelands which is on Netflix. I really enjoyed that, and I hope there's a second season. Body Guard, even though my husband now randomly shouts out, "Vicky! I'm innocent!" at the most inappropriate time. Queen of the South which is absolutely incredible. Holy shit incredible and recommended to all. Umbrella Academy as well, my holy trinity is Klaus, Diego and Ben. Loved them. I have incredibly mixed feelings about Vanya and Luthur can suck a dick. Haven't seen many movies recently, although I'm in the middle of Molly's Game right now and it's pretty good. I preferred Miss Sloane, but this is still good.

Now, down to my questions...

Well, well, well.

Okay—what is the first song you remember learning? Not Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star or the ABC's or anything, but the first pop or rock song. Mine was Who Let The Dogs Out. Hahahaha. I came home from school one day singing it when I was about five or six, and my parents didn't believe me until it came on the radio.

Who is someone that you would love to see in concert? I have so many, but I think the ones at the top would be The Pretty Reckless, In This Moment, Camila Cabello, Demi Lovato, Lady Gaga and Louis Tomlinson.

And...Hm...Who is a celebrity that you have changed your mind about? Either you really liked and now you don't, or didn't like and now you do? Mine would be Bella Thorne, I used to find her really annoying and a bit trashy, but now I love her, including all her trashiness. And I used to really like Chris Pratt, and now I really don't.

Okay!

Let me know what you think, and let me know if you want a preview xx
