ok I absolutely love you guys, the reviews I've gotten are amazing! Maybe in a couple chapters I can reach my goal of 150 but either way I love the reviews thank you all.
Jace's POV
I had fallen asleep with my arm wrapped around Clary and the TV at a low whisper. I was in a daze from just waking up but I looked at the clock on my phone. Damn, it read 5:17, Clary said her dad got up at 6:00 to get to work.
Gently I stood up as not to wake Clary, she was still fast asleep. I carefully put an arm under her knees and one under her shoulders. I lifted her from the couch and made sure her head rested on my chest, she was so light, so small yet stronger than anything.
Quietly I tiptoed to where I guessed was Clarys room, there were sketches all around and the door was left slight ajar. Carefully I moved the sheets enough to set her down gingerly.
Her Tank-Top had ridden up slightly revealing her pale ,smooth stomach, God she is so beautiful. I kissed her forehead softly whispering a small "I love you", I got an idea when I saw a note card and a pen, I wrote a little note for her when she wake up, I hope she loves it.
That's when I notice the small glint of metal on her night stand, when I looked over I saw it. The ring a gave her, she keeps it with her, not just in the bag, this made my heart swell knowing it wasn't just an object. She kept it with her through packing and chaos it is with her.
I kissed her forehead one more time and quietly walked to my room. There i laid on my bed waiting for an appropriate time to "wake up". (AN: this is actually what I do at times)
Clary's POV
The last thing I remember was feeling like I was moving, when I was finally aware I realized that Jace must have carried me into my room.
I sat up and looked at the clock 6:58, wow I slept well. Then I noticed a small piece of paper, it had slightly messy and looped handwriting I knew only as Jace's. Grabbing the notecard and sitting up I began to read.
Dear Love
Must I say you're absolutely beautiful when you sleep, maybe today we can go visit your dads book store and go on a walk. Just an excuse to be near you.
-A soul on the mend
This made me smile greatly, the last time he gave me a letter (which I still have with me) he ended it "broken soul waiting to be mended". This boy was so amazing, so romantic, so unbelievable that there was nothing in compare.
Quickly I got out of bed, when I looked in the mirror to check my hair it was not horrible but still had some pieces sticking out, I sighed and pulled it back into a quick pony tail.
I practically jogged down the hall, passing my mom in the kitchen and giving her a quick kiss on the cheek "Good morning hold on I need to go see Jace" with that I went up the stairs to our quest room.
I knocked on the door and was greeted by a tired looking Jace, he was still so beautiful. I smiled and wrapped my arms around his neck "you are amazing" with that I kissed him softly. I felt thel smile on his lips when I did and he soon picked me up so I could have some height.
I pulled back slightly "I love you so much" he pressed his forehead to mine "you are my one tether to this world Clarissa, I could never leave you". I kissed him softly one last time.
I groaned "Jace we need to go, if not my mom is gonna walls in on us". He to groaned at this and set me down "you Clarissa are a tease" I gave him my best smirk.
Grabbing both his hands I started to drag him towards the kitchen "Come on Jace the faster we eat the sooner we can do do something!" He chuckled and pulled my arms pulling me flush against him, I giggled.
"So Clary you're already tired of us?"
I turned around in Jace's arms to face my mom, my face was red but the smile on my moms face meant she wasn't mad.
"Sorry mom it's boring here, hey can we go over to the book store?" I was pulling Jaces arms around me, swinging them around myself.
My mom laughed an shook her head "Sure sure, do you need the car?"
I look up so Jace who shook his head and politely said "no ma'am we'll walk". My mom nodded and headed back toward the kitchen "Well I made some eggs and the is bread if you want toast, the butter is on the table too".
~~O~~
After breakfast Jace and I went and changed into clothes to go to the book store. I changed into some dark jeans and another tank top with a leather jacket. Jace had changed into a tight black shirt and dark jeans, he was so beautiful, so strong, there was no way I could compare.
When he looked at me his face lit up and I blushed, god how did he have so much control over me.
That didn't matter now though, I took his hand and we headed out the door. About half way into our walk of comfortable silence Jace stopped in his tracks. Confused I turned and faced him "are you ok Jace?" I looked at me with a small smile.
"Yeah Clary im great, I miss being with you". He pulled me closer, resting his chin in the top of my head.
I smiled "Jace you're always with me". He sighed "No not like it was, I miss cooking meals with you and being able to kiss your ms mess with you, I even miss sitting on that stupid couch with my legs on you".
I laughed slightly and looked up at him "Jace it's been a day, three meals, we have 5 more days after that. You're always with me, I mean what'll happen next month when I get another patient?"
When he looked down at me it was sad, like a puppy you fed but then left in a kennel. Sad and abandon. "Clary please don't talk about that, just, I want some time with you, time to sit with you and kiss your cheek".
I smiled and kissed his chin softly "five days Jace, five days and we can live at your parents place and you said they are rarely home, and Max will be at school, it'll just be us and Izzy, soon Jace. Just enjoy this right now".
He closed his eyes and buried his head in my hair "I enjoy every moment with you". I scoffed "you are so cliche". He kissed my forehead "You love me".
~~O~~
As we walked into the bookstore the bell on top of the door rang, out walked Luke from the back of the store "Hey guys, so you guys did come, Jace is there anything you're looking for?" He smiled and let go of my hand "actually yeah, not for me though, my brother Max is into comics and I'd like to find him a couple to gift him, when we go there next week". Luke smiled and said "follow me, we dont have much, mainly Marvel but there is enough you can get multiple".
Jace smiled at this and we followed Luke, when he showed us Jace and I started looking through the two medium sized boxes of comics. "So Jace what his favorite so I can look out for it?"
Jace pulled out his phone quickly and scrolled through what Im guessing was texts, "Ah Iz said that he is into both Dead Pool and The Avengers, mainly Thor and Captain America".
This was helpful and we were soon able to come up with seven different comics (there were many repeats) together we choose two Dead Pool two Avengers and a Thor comic.
We rang up the cost and Jace was about to leave a ten dollar bill when we heard Luke yell from the store room in back "Jace half off for family" Jace shook his head and swapped the ten with a five.
Once we walked out of the store I quickly hugged Jace "Did you hear that! He called you family" He chuckled softly "I know love, I have ears".
I stuck my tongue out at him, he retaliated my kissing my nose and making me laugh. "Come'on Clary we might not want to be doing this right in front of the door if you want me to stay family" I complied but walking forward "when did you become the moral compass Jace?". He chuckled "when I realized if I didnt then youre going to get me killed by looking like that".
Once again he made me blush so I just grabbed his hand and kept walking.
Alright guys happy new year, here is my gift to you all, as i sit here antisocially with headphones anyway id love reviews and id LOVE to reach my goal of 150 soon. love you all 3
