Hey guys, sorry it's been so so long since I updated, I've had extreme family issues, I moved in with my sister a month ago and I thought I might be moving schools (But I'm not) Anyway this is the second last chapter, then hopefully Claceforelife and I can get to start on the sequel straight away.

If you have any questions you know what to do.

Hope you enjoy.

Chapter 50.

*4 months later*

*CLARY'S P.O.V.*

"William, leave that poor cat alone before he scarps you" Magnus says, lifting Will away and setting him down away from Church.

Will is now eight months old and can crawl no problem, he also loves pulling Church's tail- speaking of Church, Jem took him off our hands shortly after he left the brotherhood, the old cat actually seems happy at Jem and Tessa's house. Which is where we are presently, Jack wanted to see Jem and Tessa and so did Lily but Simon and Izzy had a meeting with a fertility doctor, to see if there was any way they could conceive a baby, with or without a surrogate. So Jace and I took Lily over with Jack and Lucy too.

Lucy is five months old and can roll onto her stomach from her back and visa versa, she's getting ready for crawling it seems, Jack did the same before he started crawling.

Jace and I have decided to start trying for our third-and last- baby in two years, so Lucy will be three by the time they are born.

I've talked in depth about the surrogacy with Magnus and Alec and it's definitely going to happen within the next year, they won't be using an egg donor but I'm perfectly fine with using my own eggs, the baby won't be mine, they'll be Magnus and Alec's, regardless of who their mother is.

"He's going to be a trouble maker when he's older." Jem says, smiling as Will crawls over to him and tugs on his trouser leg, signalling he wants him to lift him.

"He already is, he has to be the most stubborn child in the world." Magnus says.

"Daddy Lucy gonna pull cat's tail!" Jack suddenly says. Jace looks over at Lucy who is reaching for Church's tail.

Jace gets up and quickly scoops her into his arms and kisses her cheek.

"Nice try missy." He coos. Lucy smiles and reaches for Tessa. Tessa happily takes her and kisses her cheek.

"How's Abbey? I haven't seen her in a while" Jem says. Abbey adores Jem; I think he's her second favourite person, after John of course. Jem adores Abbey, as he does all kids, and he spoils her rotten, worse than dad or John or Jace do, which is a lot.

"She's good, she misses you, not even John can make her stop asking where you are every five minutes." I say. Jem chuckles and says

"I miss her too; I must go over and see her later." Jem says.

"Uncle Jem, I come with you to see Grandma and Grandpa?" Jack asks.

"Of course Jackie." He says.

"Love you Uncle Jem" Jack says, hugging him by wrapping his arms around his legs.

Jem smiles and kisses the top of Jack's head and says

"I love you too Jackie" He says.

*Later that night*
*JACE'S P.O.V.*
As I try out different notes on the piano in front of me, trying to write a song for Lucy to get her to sleep and sooth her when she's sick, I hear small footsteps. I look to the doorway and see Jack standing there.

"Hey buddy." I say.

"What you doing daddy?" He asks, curiosity in his voice.

"Writing a song for Lucy so she'll go to sleep." I say. Jack walks up and clambers onto my lap.

"Will you sing to me too?" He innocently asks. I would do anything for my little boy.

"Of course I will buddy, what song do you wanna hear buddy?" I ask.

"The one you singed when I was a baby" He remembers back that far?

"You remember that Jack? That was long ago, when you were just out of mommy's belly." I say, looking at him.

"I just amember daddy, is it bad?" Jack asks.

"No! No of course not, it's just most people don't remember back that far, but it's good that you do it shows you're smart" I say. Jack smiles broadly and cuddles into my chest.

"Love you daddy. Can we do sometin'? Just you and me?"He asks. I would love to do that, I just hope Clary won't need me to help with Lucy.

"Sure baby boy, if aunt Alli can help mommy look after Lucy. What do you wanna do?" I ask.

"Umm... go get ice cream and go to the park?" He asks.

"Of course baby boy." I say.

"Can we bring back some ice cream for Lucy and mommy?" He asks. True Herondale, always thinking of others.

"Well Jackie I think mommy would love some ice cream but Lucy is too little for ice cream, but we can bring her back a tiny bit." I say. Jack smiles broadly and says

"Okay, we go say bye to mommy and Lucy?" He asks.

"Sure, let's go." I say.

When we get upstairs I see Clary sitting on the bed with Lucy in her arms.

"Hey my boys." She says, smiling.

"Mommy me and daddy are gonna go for ice cream, we bring you and Lucy back some?" He says, climbing up beside her on the bed.

"I would love that Jackie, but Lucy can only have a little bit because she's so little" Clary says.

"Otay mommy."Jack says.

"Alli's gonna help you look after Lucy, is that okay?" I say. I text her because I think she's out for a walk with Will.

"Okay, I don't think I'll need that much help anyway, she's been sleeping most of the day." She says.

"Okay, well if you need me just text or call me."I say.

"I will, I love you." She says, as I lean down and kiss her.

"Love you too." I say.

"Bye mommy" Jack says, hugging her.

"Bye Jackie, have fun." She says.

Jack kisses Lucy's nose and says

"Bye bye Lucy, I going to get ice cream with daddy, I bring you back a little bit. Wove you." Once he finishes a little laugh erupts from Lucy's mouth. The first time she's laughed.

"Jack you sweet boy you made her laugh for the first time!" I say. Jack smiles broadly and says kisses Lucy's nose again.

"Daddy, I stay with grandma and grandpa tonight?" Jack asks.

"Sure buddy, grandpa told me he'd love for you to stay with him. Clare maybe your mom and dad could take Lucy too." I say, I know Clary will be reluctant, but she really needs a good night's sleep.

"Oh Jace... I don't know... Lucy doesn't like being away from us... and I hate being away from her." Clary says.

"If she gets too upset I'll pick her up, but you really need some sleep Clare" I say. She's quiet for a while before sighing and saying

"Fine, but only because I really do need sleep."

*Hours later*

*CLARY'S P.O.V.*

Jace dropped Lucy and Jack off with mom and dad a while ago and being away from Lucy is killing me.

"Clary you knew you were gonna have to leave her sometime."Alli says, lifting Will up.

"I know but it's just so hard, I miss her" I say.

"I know Clary, but it's not like you're never gonna see her again." She says.

"Yeah, that's true." I say.

"Since you're child free for the night why don't you and Jace have an early night to yourselves?" She asks. That's a good idea.

"Yeah, I think I'll do just that." I say.

Soon enough Jace and I are lying in bed, both of us very close to sleep, for once not having to switch on the baby monitor. I soon fall asleep and sleep through the night for the first time in almost three years.

I know this wasn't the best but it's all I could come up with. I think I might just go straight into the sequel though I'm unsure. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed. Please review, love you all.
