PoV Clary
When we got off the plane, I almost ran into my mum I was so excited to see her.
"Hi, sweetie!" she laughed.
"Hi, mum!" I yelled, swinging around in her arms.
I caught glimpse of Alec over my mums shoulder, his face pale.
"Sup?" I asked him, letting go of my mum.
"My parents are here."
I turned to see Isabelle running towards us in her high heels, clicking loudly with every step. "Alec!" she yelled. "It's so good to see you!"
She flung her arms around his neck, pulling him close and almost knocking him off his feet. He laughed briefly before catching sight of the look on his father's face. It was almost like disgust, but intermingled with a slight hope that his son had been joking about Magnus and being gay. Seeing Magnus there, though, seemed to chase that hope away. It left me with an uneasy feeling in my stomach. Alec seemed to shrink under the withering gaze of his father as his mother embraced him.
Robert looked at Alec and nodded, then turned and embraced Jace.
"How was school, son?" he asked Jace.
"It was good," Jace said, wrapping an arm around my shoulders. "This is Cain. My boyfriend."
My mother's laugh sound like a choke and made Maryse jump.
"Your… boyfriend?" Robert asked. "You are also gay?"
"Pansexual," Jace bullshitted. "Cain's birth name is Clarissa, but he feels more comfortable as Cain."
My mother snorted with laughter again and covered her mouth, causing Maryse to look at her questioningly. My mother leaned over and whispered something into her ear, causing Maryse' eyebrows to raise and her to laugh. She winked at me and smiled at Jace, and I added another person to the list of "they know my secret".
Robert went back to looking at Alec, and awkwardly embraced his son. "How was school?"
Alec just stared at his father in bewilderment for a moment, and then said, "S'okay."
Robert nodded and shook hands with Magnus, who was trying not to laugh.
"So…" Robert started. "You're my son's boyfriend?"
"Yep," Magnus said. "I don't normally look this plain, I just didn't have time in the morning for all my product."
Robert's eyebrows shot up and he nodded, as if expecting this. He mumbled something and went to stand next to Maryse again, putting a hand on her waist.
"Oh, Robert, I invited them all over for lunch," Maryse said. "They're coming over now."
"Oh."
So we all piled into our cars, Magnus with Alec and Isabelle, Jace with me and my mum. The car ride was silent and a bit awkward, Jace's hand in mine. When we got to Alec's house, (cough mansion cough) we all separated and went to different rooms. I was going to follow Isabelle when Jace pulled me away and into his room, closing the door before kissing me hard on the lips, his hands on my waist. I could feel his heart hammering in his chest, just like mine.
We slowly sank onto his bed, after removing each other's coats and our own shoes. His hands slide up the sides of my shirt, his fingers fiddling with the bottom of my binder. I smiled against his lips, running my hands through his hair.
Jace pushed himself away from me slightly, propping himself up on his elbows. "Are you sure you're okay with this?"
I nodded after a moment, deliberating it in my head. "Are you?"
"Yeah," Jace said, his golden eyes shining with an almost feverish light. "Are you?"
"You just asked me that."
Jace nodded and kissed me again, his hands slowly sliding under me to find the clasp to my binder. He mumbled something against my lips and moved to kiss my throat. I hooked my fingers into his belt loops and pulled him closer, smiling slightly as his stubble tickled my neck.
"Jace, lunch is read- Oh my god!" It was Alec at the door, quickly going red and stumbling backwards into the hallway. I heard a soft thud and he and someone else, who I soon found out to be Magnus, toppled to the ground.
Jace laughed as I felt my face going red as well. Jace pulled me up from the bed and straightened out my shirt, then strode into the hallway to help his brother to his feet. I followed close behind, still red. Magnus was laughing on the ground, almost in tears. Isabelle ran back up the stairs to see what was going on. She shook her head when she saw us and went back down. We all joined her and our parents for lunch.
It was super awkward.
