So I have been in a writing mood lately so I hope you guys like this chapter the ending is super cute.. This might be the only chapter I do with the twins being babies i'm not sure yet.
Thank you to Trisherondalemorgenstern who gave me the idea for the boys names.
The twins had to stay in the hospital for a month after they were born Clary insisted that she stayed with them and told me to take Ryland and Jess back home I didn't want to leave her and the boys but I didn't want to stay in a hotel with the kids so I went home reluctantly, today there are coming home and I was running around trying to make everything perfect for them. Clary and I went back and forth on what there names should be but we decided with, Liam Alexander Herondale and Logan Christopher Herondale I was sitting around waiting for them to get here. Ryland came down the stairs rubbing his eyes. "Morning daddy."
"Morning buddy."
"Is mama here yet?"
"She's on her way."
"Daddy?"
"Yeah?"
"Are you gonna get one for Liam and Logan?" He said pointing to my tattoo for him and I smiled.
"Yeah I am."
"Where at?"
"I don't know yet. Where should I?"
"Uhhhh…. I don't know." He said and I smiled. "Can I see Jessie's?" He asked and I moved my shirt, a few days after she was born I got a tattoo of her hands and feet with her name and birthday going around it's one of my favorites. "I like hers but mine is the best."
"It is one of my coolest." I said pulling him into a hug.
"Daddy are you and mama gonna have another baby."
"I think we are done having kids."
"So I don't have to have anymore sisters?"
"Haha no buddy more sisters."
"Did you know-" He stopped when the doorbell rang I frowned getting up and walking to the door wondering who it was I opened the door expecting to see Clary but it was Ashley."
"Jace!" She said throwing her arms around me and I stood there frozen.
"I uh what are you doing here?"
"I was traveling around for the last few years remember I asked if you wanted to come but the whole thing with just finding out about your son and what not you left me alone in spain." She ran her hands up my chest and I snapped out of it pushing her away from me.
"Yeah I left to go be with my family."
"Oh come on-" I heard Jessie's cries coming from upstairs.
"I'm sorry but you have to go,"
"I really need to talk to you." She said pouting I use to find it cute now it annoyed me.
"Just stay right here." I said running up the steps. "Hey baby girl." I said and she lifted her arms to get to me. I picked her up and walked back to the door I opened it but she was gone before I could sigh in relief I heard her voice and Ryland laugh. I walked into the living room and she was sitting on the couch with Ryland talking to him.
"Ryland take your sister outside for a little while please."
"But daddy mama is gonna be home soon with-"
"Please." I said and he took Jess' hand and walked outside with her. "What the hell do you think you're doing?"
"I didn't know you had him with you…" She said standing up. "Did you have another kid with someone?"
"Not someone Clary."
"Wow I thought you two didn't get along."
"Things change we're married now."
"You are just full of surprises aren't you. Wife two kids."
"Four."
"I'm sorry I didn't know you had a wife I wouldn't of came here I think I should go." She said standing up walking towards the door.
"You wanted something what was it?"
"Nothing you'd be willing to give me anymore." She said looking down and I felt uncomfortable. "Unless you aren't happy?"
"I am very happy and I need you to leave." I said motioning for the door and I opened it and she walks out the door.
"I have a new number so if you ever-"
"Like I said I don't need it i'm happy." I said slamming the door and walking out to get the kids. Jessie and Ryland were chasing the dogs around I sat out with them for a while before she said she was hungry.
The kids were eating when another knock came on the door Ryland looked at me with an eyebrow raised and I sighed walking over to the door and swinging it open.
"I'm happily married and I don't care what you say so please leave."
"I'd be happily married too if my husband would get the babies out of the car." Clary said with a smirk.
"Why didn't you call me I would of been out here waiting." I said walking towards the car getting one of the car seats, Clary got the other one she waved towards Simon who had just left. "I still wish you would've let me drive you home."
"You had Ryland and Jess it would of been hectic it's okay, but anyway what was with the happily married thing?" She asked walking towards the door.
"Can we talk about that later please?" I asked and she eyed me but nodded anyway.
"MOMMY!" Ryland yelled and jumped on her. "I missed you, I missed you, I missed you!"
"I missed you too, did you take care of daddy and Jessie?" He nodded very intently and I smiled ruffling his hair. "Wanna hold your little brothers?"
"Yes." We walked over to the couch and she took the baby out of his seat and placed him in Ryland's arms. I only seen pictures of them or from their incubators never got to hold these sweet little boys. "Who is this?" He asked.
"Logan, I think."
"That's Liam." Clary said from the kitchen.
"How do you know?" I asked as she came back in holding Jess.
"Liam's hair is longer and his hair is a little lighter." She said rubbing his head I was sitting on the other couch picking up Logan and settling down with him in my arms looking around the room.
It was nice having all four of the kids in the house, Clary and I put the boys to bed then I went and put Jessie to bed because Jessie didn't want Clary to do it. When she was finally asleep I went to the room and Clary was already sound asleep wrapped up in the covers. I dropped into bed cuddling up to Clary and falling asleep from exhaustion.
Clary's Pov
It was a little after one when the cries started to come through the baby monitor I groaned just wanting to sleep. I was about to get up when Jace's hand gripped my thigh. "I will get them."
"They're probably hungry if you want to make one a bottle and i'll feed the other?"
"Yeah." We get out of bed and feed the boys it took about half an hour to get them both back to sleep so when we fall back into bed we were out within minutes.
The next time we woke up it was three I looked over to Jace who was sleeping with the pillow on his head I tapped him a few times but he didn't get up I got out of bed and went into the boy's room but they were sleeping peacefully I went into Jessie's room and she was sitting up crying in bed.
"What's the matter sweet pea?"
"Mhaa." She said, one thing Jace and I noticed is when she doesn't have her hearing aids on she tries to make out her words but stops midway because she can't hear what she says and it frustrates her.
"What's wrong?" I signed.
"Hey what's wrong?" Jace said walking into her room rubbing his eyes.
"Jess had a bad dream I think." She seen Jace and her arms went up reaching towards him.
"Hey princess." Jace said bouncing her up and down and she laid her head on him. "Go back to bed I got her."
"You sure?" I asked and he nodded going over to her rocking chair and started to sing softly to her rubbing her back.
I woke back up at five and Jace wasn't in the room I went back into Jessie's room and he was sleeping in her rocking chair with her on his chest drooling all over him. I took a picture and then one of the boys started to cry I backed out of the room and went into his room, Logan was crying I picked him and hurried out of the room so he wouldn't wake up Liam, I went downstairs and nursed him then put him in his bouncy chair as I made my way back up the steps to check on Liam they always woke up around the same time. I peeked into his crib and he looked at me with his big blue eyes.
"Hello my little love." I cooed at him and he looked at me like I was crazy. "Did you sleep good? Cause mommy didn't. No she didn't." I said and he smiled at me.
Ryland had woken up a little after I had gotten Liam he was now playing peek-a-boo with Logan I was dozing off when I seen Jace walk downstairs with Jessie running behind me talking his ear off. "Sleep good?" I asked with an amused smile and he laughed.
"You didn't wake me up."
"They didn't get up that long ago so it's okay."
"Hi dad." Ryland said to him waving as Jace pasted by.
"Hey little man."
"Mama can you turn the tv up some." Ryland whined as soon as Liam started to cry.
"You know you use to cry all the time to."
"Did not!"
"Yes you did." I said and Jessie came up to look at the Logan who Jace picked up and she started to cry.
"Daddy!" She yelled trying to push Logan out of Jace's hands I had to get up and take the baby from him, once he was out of Jace's arms Jess got on top of him and laid her head in his lap holding onto one of his hands holding it close to her face.
"Well that was unexpected." Jace said and he looked down at Jessie who was still crying silent tears. "Hey look at me." Jace said poking her a few times until she looked at him. "What's wrong?"
"Bad baby." She said.
"No he's a good baby, you're the bad baby." Jace said and Jessie really started to wail.
"I no like you." She said hitting him and pushed off him I looked at Jace and it looked like someone just slapped him.
"Jessica Isabelle Herondale you do not hit people say sorry to daddy right now." I said and she just looked at me. "Fine go to your room." I said picking her up and walking her up into her room I put her back in her crib where she was screaming her head off when I left she had already started to get out of her crib, I walked down stairs and Jace was sitting there with an expression I couldn't read.
"Jace-"
"Did you hear what she said to me?"
"She's only two and a half Jace it's not like-"
"She hates me." He said getting up.
"She's not use to you saying those things to her, hell I don't even think you've ever even really yelled at her."
"She's my little girl-"
"And she was being bad and you told her. Jace she isn't gonna like you 100% of the time."
"Maybe I should take her and go buy her a new toy and she'll-
"No you will not… If Ryland did that you'd tell him he was bad and he wouldn't get anything so she doesn't."
"But-"
"No." I said but he got up anyway. "Jace…"
"I'm just gonna go check on her that's all." He said throwing his hands up in the air.
Jace's Pov
I walked into Jessie's room and she was crying on her floor holding the stuffed giraffe I bought the day she was born and my heart crumbled into a million pieces. "Hey princess."
"Go way." She said turning around.
"Jessie." She turned away farther. "Jess." She whined as she moved her shoulder in a jerking motion. "I'm sorry baby girl.
"You mean me."
"Daddy didn't mean to be mean to you."
"I cry."
"I know I made you cry." I said moving closer to her but when she seen me she crawled away from me into the corner of her room. "Jessie come on i'm not leaving until we hug."
"You no ike me."
"What?"
"New baby."
"You think because there's new babies I don't like you anymore?" I asked and she just looked at me with a sad face that made me feel even shittier.
"I you baby." She said crawling towards me pointing at herself.
"Of course you're my baby." I said picking her up and she hugged my neck.
"Oh daddy."
"What?"
"Caa eeee." She said as she signed something. I had no idea what she said I still haven't learned so i'm lost but then she points at her ear and her hearing aid is gone.
"Wheres it at?"
"I donuuu.." She said slurring her words together, she started crawling around her room and I started looking to I don't know how long it was when I looked up when I heard laughter Clary and Ryland were standing there watching as Jess and I crawled around her room.
"I take it you too made up?" Clary said.
"Yeah but she lost her hearing aid I don't know where it is."
"It's right here." Clary said holding it up.
"How?"
"I guess when I was taking her up here it fell out."
"How about we watch a movie or something?" I said getting up from the floor as Jessie grabbed Ryland's hand pulling him towards his room.
"You realize we are both gonna end up falling asleep during this movie."
"That's the plan." I said kissing her cheek.
Ryland's Pov
It's been forever since i've gotten out of the house since the twins were born right now daddy has the twins and mama, Jessie, and I are out. We had to take Jessie to gymnastics and my hockey practice doesn't start until after Jess' practice so I had to stay and watch but it was kinda fun, Uncle Magnus and Max was there too since Rylie was in gymnastics too she got done earlier then Jessie did so when she was done I was gonna leave with Uncle Magnus.
"Ryland wanna go bounce?" Max asked pointing at the trampoline.
"Are we aloud to?" I asked.
"Yeah when Rylie makes me come they let me come on." He said hitting my arm and pulling me with him I thought mama would of yelled at me but she let me go. Max and I bounced around until Uncle Magnus came and told us we had to go.
I was skating around the rink with Max and Matty when Sam comes up to us I don't like him because he has a crush on my mom and that is nasty. "Did your mom bring you today Ryland?"
"No she's at my little sisters gymnastics practice so my uncle brought me." I said and Max and Matty were laughing.
"He thinks your mom is hot." Matty laughed and I looked at him getting mad.
"Don't call my mom that."
"Matty stop, Ryland's getting mad."
"Your mom is really pretty Ryland." Sam said.
"You can call her her pretty I don't care but don't call her hot."
"She's hot-" Matty didn't get to finish I slammed into him and we both fell over.
"Don't call her that!" I yelled hitting him. The coach pulled me off of him and made me get off the ice and go sit down.
"What was that about?" Uncle Magnus asked.
"Nothing." I mumbled crossing my arms.
Daddy was waiting outside when I got dropped off so I sighed knowing I was gonna get yelled at. "I heard you and Matty got into a fight." He said taking my hockey bag from me.
"He was being rude so I hit him that's all."
"You know how your mother feels about fighting."
"Please don't tell her daddy."
"This will be our secret just this once but no more fighting." I nodded and ran up to my room.
"Rwa." I heard Jessie yell.
"Hi Jessie."
"Won play?" She asked and I nodded.
"What do you want to play?"
"We have tea par."
"A tea party?"
"Yeah."
"Can I bring some of my toys?"
"Yeah." I ran into my room and grabbed some of my superhero toys and went into Jessie's room where the cups of tea were set up, she picked up a stuffed animal that was sitting at one of the chairs and threw it then pat it for me to sit. She did the same thing with a few of her other toys so my toys would have room at the table. "He caa go he." She said pointing to the empty spot next to her stuffed giraffe I placed Timmy there carefully and Jessie sat at her spot.
"Cheers!" I said holding my plastic tea cup of water up to hers.
"Chees." She yelled clinking our cups together laughing.
