Jace POV

Within five minutes the doctor had put a cannula in Clary's hand and started to give her the medication to slow down her contractions. I can't believe that were going to be parents at some point in the next few days. It only feels like yesterday I found out about Clary being pregnant.

"Mom and umm… mom" Clary say's causing both our mothers to laugh. "Any chance that you could give me and Jace a few minutes alone? I would really like to have two minutes with Jace before were both shoved into parenthood without actually seeing each other for 12 weeks."

They both laugh again and nod making their way out to speak to the doctors about her transfer back to Lake Lyn Hospital.

"Jace, it's so good to see you. I missed you so much! I knew you'd find us! I told CJ and JJ every day that you would find us. I knew you would." Clary says tears running down her face.

"CJ and JJ?" I question as I walk towards her bed. Sitting down I pull her hand towards me, unable to actually pull into my arms due to the drip in her arm.

"Yeah" She says a small laugh escaping her mouth. "It stands for…."

"Clary Junior and Jace Junior. Yeah I've been calling them that too." I say smiling down at Clary.

Her smile is a mile wide. "Yeah we probably need to give them real names at some point." She laughs. "Here feel this." She pulls my hand down and over her belly towards her back. "This one is CJ. I think we could call her Charlotte Jocelyn Herondale. CJ for short. And this one here," she pulled her hand back towards the front. "This one is JJ I think that this one should be called Jacob Jace Herondale. JJ for short."

"I think that is a brilliant idea." I tell her leaning over to kiss her. "I am so glad your back baby. And one day…" I grab her left hand bringing it towards my mouth. One day there will be a ring on this finger and you will be Mrs Herondale. As soon as you tell me that you're ready, I'll get down on one knee and ask you and we will be the Herondale's."

Tears stream down her face a smile so wide I don't know how her face hasn't split. She leans over and pulls my mouth to hers. "I'm ready when ever you are, future husband," She whispers and kisses me again. Her tongue running along my lower lip. A feeling that goes straight to my groin. A groan escapes my lips as she deepened the kiss.

I pull back before I do something stupid. "God Clary. 12 weeks without you has been the worst 12 weeks of my life. I can not go another day without you by my side." I hold both of her hands in mine. "I have loved you for over 14 years and I know that I will love you forever and always. You are giving me the most amazing gift that I will every receive in these two miracles, the ones growing inside you right now desperate to escape so much that they are coming 8 weeks early. I want you as my wife Clary. To have and to hold. In sickness and in health and all that other stuff that you say when you marry someone." At this she laughs. I look into her eyes and see them glistening with tears.

"Now I know that I am being very sappy saying all this to you especially because you are about to give birth to our beautiful Charlotte and Jacob, but if I don't do this now, I don't think I will have the courage or the time with our little ones. So, I'll finally ask you this now." I pull my hands out of hers and get down on my knee in front of her on the bed. "Clarissa Adele Fray, will you do me the wonderful, privilege and honour to become my wife, forever and ever?" I ask, her smile somehow becomes even bigger than before, the tears now slowly streaming down her face.

"Answer him already!" Jocelyn shouts from the doorway. She quickly pulls her hands up to cover her mouth, whilst Luke and mom stand next to her laughing.

"Actually, an answer would be nice, my knees are starting to hurt." I say from my place on the floor.

Clary looks at me her smile reaching her eyes. "Of course, I'll marry you Jace!" she screams, using my hands she drags me up to my feet and wraps her arms as tight around me as best she can. Our family cheers form the door way.

"Clary!" I hear Jon shout from the hallway. I hear his feet hitting against the floor as well as a few other pairs. Within a few minutes Jon, Sebastian, Izzy, Simon, Alec and Magnus all run through the door.

"Clary!" they all shout in unison and run to crowd around us, making a big group hug with Clary in the middle. I hear so many different things being said but basically everyone is just telling her how much they all missed her and how happy they are to have her back.

"Oww." She cries out and holds her stomach as another contraction starts. I wrap my arms around her back and let her rest her head on my chest. She does the deep breathing that the doctor told her about when we first got to the maternity floor.

"Shit, Clare are you okay?" Jon asks his hand going to her shoulder blades.

"Contraction." She grits out between her teeth.

"Can we finally know what your having now? It's been driving me insane!" surprising us all so much that we burst into laughter, its Simon who exclaims this to us.

"I think that you all can wait another day or two to find out the sexes." I say to all our friends earning a round of moaning about how unfair it all is.

During everyone's moaning a doctor comes in to speak to us. "Hello Clary, Jace. Is it okay to speak about transferring with everyone present or would you like them to leave?" At our agreement that everyone can stay he starts to inform us of the plan. "So now that Clary has had the terbutaline her contractions should slow down. In the new 20 minutes the ambulance to transfer you to Lake Lyn Hospital and back into the care of Doctor Williams. When you get there, she will assess you, Clary, to see If you've dilated anymore. Hopefully the terbutaline will have slowed your labour down. But at any stage within the next 24 hours I would say from personal experience in this area, that you will have your two beautiful children in your arms." He says smiling at us.

"Thank you, Doctor." Clary says, and I just nod at him.

"Okay before you go I will give you a dose of steroids through your drip by the time that you get to LLH it should b about an 1 o'clock in the afternoon so you should be able to have more given at 3 then 6 and hopefully your babies will stay in until then so you can have a complete days dose." As soon as he's hooked her up to the steroids, he leaves us all in Clary's room with the promise of coming back as soon as the ambulance is here.

"So, you're having your babies now?" Jon asks Clary and she nods her head. "are you ready?"

"Not in the slightest." Clary answers truthfully, causing all of us to laugh.

"Don't worry baby girl, I wasn't ready for either of you to be born, it's something that come natural as soon as you hold them in your arms. Everything will fall into place. Celine and I have bought a load of clothes for them, being the only ones who actually know what you're having and have put them in a spare room in Celine's house. All you have to do is paint the nursery, but you will have the time to do that when you get home with them, they will be staying in their bassinets in your room until they are old enough." Jocelyn says to Clary whilst stroking her hair.

"Thanks mom, that makes me feel so much better." Clary says with a smile. "I could do with sometime to sleep if you don't mind." Everyone nods and goes to leave, I join in at the end of the line until Clary calls me. "Jace, will you lay with me?"

"You don't have to ask me twice." I quickly make my way back towards her bed and climb in with her, pulling her, as best as I can, towards my chest.

She rests her hand on my chest and her belly pushes into my side. "I love you Jace." She says in a sleepy voice.

"I love you too Clary, you and our children are my world." I say as she closes her eyes and goes to sleep.
