Authors Note:
Not my longest chapter for this story, but I was going to time jump it but I really wanted to write Clary's reaction to the conversation with her parents, but I didn't have a lot to write about! I do enjoy this short chapter, I find it light hearted but still dealing with the heaviness of this story! I hope you like it! Enjoy! :)
Chapter Fourteen
Clary POV:
"That was the most embarrassing thing I've ever gone through." I said and Jonathan laughed.
"It wasn't that bad." He said and I glared at him. "What?"
"He asked about our sex life Jon." I said and he laughed again.
"So?"
"So? You're telling me you wouldn't be embarrassed if our parents asked your fiancé about your sex life?" I said and I saw him thinking.
"Good point." He said and he looked at Jace. "At least they approve."
"True. I think I did pretty good." Jace said.
"Pretty good?" Jon said. "I didn't even know half those things about Clary." He said and we laughed. "Alright kids, I'm going to head to bed. I'll see you in the morning." He gave me a hug and clapped Jace on the back before heading up the stairs. Once he was gone I looked back at Jace, he smiled and motioned for me to join him on the chair.
"I love you." He said and I couldn't help but smile.
"I love you too." I say as I kiss him on the lips.
"How are you feeling about everything that happened tonight?" He asks and I sink into his lap.
"Confused." I say. "I never thought they would ever look back and realize how awful they were. I guess what I said to them today got them thinking."
"What did you say?"
"I told them they were too self absorbed to care about other peoples lives. He got mad about the engagement. I guess they had a change of heart."
"What are you going to do with their new change of heart?" He asked and I think about it for a few minutes before I answer.
"I was serious when I said it might take me years to forgive them. For the first 20 years they didn't care about me, I can't just get over that because of one conversation you know? I was molested, I cut myself, hell I tried to kill myself, and they didn't even care. That's going to take a while to forgive."
"I know babe, but they're trying. That's all you can ever ask of them." I nod, and lean my head on his chest. I sigh and get up and reach my hand out. "Let's go to bed." I say and he smirks.
"Or we could test your volume control." He said and I smacked his chest.
"Jace!" I said as I blushed like crazy.
"What? He already assumes we're going to have sex tonight. Might as well live up to his expectations." I grabbed his hand and laughed as I pulled him up the stairs. We walked through my living room and into my room where I shut the door and pushed him into the bathroom. I shut that door and locked it as well. He looked at me with a confused look.
"If we're going to tell my volume control, might has well use the room where it gets hot and steamy." I say as I turn on the shower and start stripping down. His eyes widen before he's undressing and pulling me into the shower.
"You are so on babe." He said as he slammed his lips to mine, and all I can think about is how so right he is.
