I am so sorry it has taken me so long to update. First, school has been driving me crazy. Then I had to take some time off to read Empire of Storms which left me shattered. If any of you have read the Throne of Glass Series you know what I'm talking about. If not I highly recommend it!

keep leaving suggestions on what should happen next. I love putting them in the story!


Jace's POV

When I proposed to Clary back when she first found out she was pregnant a with the twins, I knew we weren't going to get married anytime soon. It was more of a promise to never be apart again.

We always agreed that there were too many things and problems going on to add a wedding into the mix. However, now that the twins are 8 months old and Gray is fully used to going to school, things have calmed down a lot.

Clary doesn't know yet but I'm leaving for a 5 month tour with only one break in the middle, and I don't want to wait anymore to marry the love of my life. The album has sold at a record amount, so this is the longest tour we have ever done. It's been hard, not just for me but for Alec as well, to imagine being away from the kids for so long. This is our job, though.

I know a wedding takes a long time to plan, and I only have a couple of weeks. So, of course, I called the only person I knew could pull it off perfectly. Izzy.

She was in Milan shooting for a big fashion magazine, but as soon as she got back a few days later, she had everything planned out already. She even had Clary's dress. It was going to be pretty small ceremony with close friends and family. Everything was going to be themed in white, light greys and soft touches of lilac. Plus, it was going to be surprise for Clary.

The day arrives and I can't stop pacing nervously on the yard, where Izzy had set up a beautiful archway and chairs for everyone to sit in. Luckily it's a beautiful sunny day. Everyone who's important to us is here. Maryse and Robert, Jocelyn and Luke, the guys from the band including Emma and Maia, Magnus with the kids and Alec who's my best man, and of course Simon who seemed to be as nervous as I am for some reason.

Izzy took Clary out for breakfast, claiming that she needed some alone time from the kids. She didn't deny it of course, but it took some persuading to get her to go. As soon as she left everyone started showing up to help get everything ready. Magnus got Gray all dressed up and handsome. Jocelyn and Maryce helped with the twins. The guys from the band put up everything in the backyard. Luke got the cake Izzy had made to order. And I just waited in my closet pacing as Izzy texted me every 5 minutes for updates.

When Izzy texts that they are on their way, I run downstairs and tell everyone to get ready. Then I wait...


Clary's POV

After having breakfast with Izzy, she takes me back home since she picked me up this morning. All through the morning she kept staring at me and smiling, but I didn't make anything of it. What really catches my attention is partially everyone we now's cars parked on our driveway when we get back to the house.

"What's going on?" I frown as Izzy parks the car.

"I lied" she states the obvious, "I didn't just take you out for breakfast because we needed girl time". She takes the keys out of the ignition, gets out and walks around to the other side of the car. "Come on".

I get out as she signals and follow her up to my closet. A white dress hangs alone on one of the many racks, and I think I piece everything together.

"No" I laugh nervously, "where's Jace!? I am going to kill him".

"You can kill him" she grabs my hand before I can go anywhere, "after the beautiful wedding I planned out for you". She's incredibly strong.

"I can't believe this is happening" I grunt as she does some quick hair and makeup. I want to marry Jace, that's why I agreed, but I never imagined it would happen like this.

"Well believe it" she smiles and hands me the dress carefully for me to put on.

I have to admit this really is a beautiful dress. And it's surprisingly a dress I would have picked out for myself and not what I imagined Izzy would have picked.

"Ohh" she shrieks when I turn around to reveal the dress, "it's looks so good". She has already changed into a tight purple dress. She stares at me for a few more seconds in silence, "are you ready?"

"No" I admit grinning at my honest response, "I've been ready since High School, but this is the one time I feel like I'm not ready..."

"It'll be fine" she grabs my hands and smiles. She's right.

We make our way downstairs, and the wedding march starts playing as if on cue. Izzy walks in front of me as we make our way down the makeshift aisle between the chairs. Luke steps in, grabbing my arm carefully to give me away. I'm glad he's here instead of my dad. Everyone I care about is here. The twins sit on Maryce and my mom's laps. Gray sits next to Raf who sits next to Magnus with Max on his lap as well. Everything is so neatly and perfectly set up it has Izzy written all over it.

On the other end I see Jace, Alec standing behind him. I can't believe he planned all this without me knowing. He is amazing.

"You look beautiful" Jace says after Luke gives me a kiss on the cheek and hands me over to Jace. I only smile and blush from the nerves.

"Dearly beloved" the pastor begins, "we are gathered here to witness the union of Jonathan Cristopher Herondale and Clarissa Fairchild".

He continues for a few more minutes, but I'm not really paying attention at what he is saying. All I can do is look at Jace and get lost in his golden eyes. It's amazing how much things have changed since I first bumped into him Freshman year.


Moving to a new school wasn't easy. Since my mom married Luke, I had no choice but to move out here and leave my Art School behind. I kept telling myself it was going to be a great day, but today had only been a nightmare. There were so many people rushing through the crowded hallway, all taller than me of course, I could barely get by. All I had to do was find my locker so I could get my book and go to class.

I didn't even see it happen, when Tom Stetson threw his ball for Drew Pratt to catch. All I saw was Drew run backwards and right into me. I fell backwards and braced myself before I hit the ground, but never did. Muscular but soft arms wrapped around my frail body, holding me up.

"I got you" a low raspy voice said into my ear. "Why don't you take that to the field before you get kicked off the team for failing Geography" the voice spat at Drew, "Oh wait! You already did"

Drew only growled and gave us a snide look before returning to his group of pack animals. He didn't even apologize.

"Thank you" I turned around to thank whoever had saved me from a concussion and got lost in eyes like melted gold. His hair was blonde and messily tousled. His figure was toned but lean. His smile was perfectly straight and white. And his eyes... Those eyes.

"No problem" he smiled and I nearly shrieked. "I'm Jace"

"Clarissa" I said without thinking. "Clary!" I corrected myself, "don't call me Clarissa". That's what my dad used to call me.

"Dude we have to go" another Los voice said from behind me and that's when I snapped out of it. He was tall with dark hair and bright eyes. Jace reached for the guitar that stood in his locker and flung the strap over his shoulder. A musician...

"It was nice meeting you" he closed his locker, "maybe I'll see you around again".

"Thanks again" I said quickly before he left.

"No problem" he smiled before walking away.


"Do you take Clarissa as your lovely wedded wife?" the pastor asks Jace.

"I do" his voice is like music.

"And do you take Jonathan to be your husband?"

"I do" my voice cracks a little as I hold back tears.

"I now announce you as Husband and Wife" he closes his book and Jace wraps his hands around my waist. "You may now kiss the bride" just like that, we forget who's there staring at us and we lose ourselves in each other. For a moment it's just us.


"Congratulations!" My mom hugs me once everything has been rearranged and it's now the reception party. I'll have to thank Izzy afterwards, she really outdid herself.

"Thank you" I hug her back and stare at Jace who's on the dance floor with the twins in his arms.

"It's about time you had some happiness in your life" she smiles.

"Can I steal her for a moment?" Simon steps in, his palm shaking nervously.

"Sure" my mom smiles and steps away.

"What's wrong?" I ask concerned.

"I need a favor" his voice cracks.

"You know I'd do anything for you" I places hand in my shoulder trying to calm him a little.

Instead of answering p, He just reaches into his pocket and takes out a small velvet box. He doesn't even need to open it for me to know what's inside.

"I see Izzy's not the only ine who can keep a secret" I smile proudly.

"So you'll help me?" He asks again.

"Of course I'll help you Simon".

When it's time to throw the bouquet, all the girls scatter behind me. I look back making sure Izzy's there before pretending I'm about to throw it a couple of times. Then I turn around and walk up to Izzy handing her the bouquet, and Simon kneels down behind her with the ring. Everyone gasps in shock and Izzy turns around surprised.

"Will you do me the honor of becoming my wife?" Simon manages to say somehow.

"Yes!" Izzy nods and Simon slips the ring on her finger before standing up and kissing her.

Everyone cheers and comes congratulate her. Jace joins me and wraps one arm around me and he hands Bree to me and holds Mia on the other arm.

"I love you" he whispers leaning down to plant a kiss on the side of my neck.

"I love you too" I snuggle into his side and take in the moment.
