A.N. So, here we go. Attempting JPoV and SPoV… It will probably be so awful you will run away screaming, but we will see. Ps- Jace's opinions are not my opinions, and neither are Simon's, particularly, I am just giving them the opinions I think they would have.
Would anyone mind if I started letting the characters swear a little more? It would enable me to personify Jace a little more, but I don't want to offend anyone. If you don't want to put your answer for all the world to see, just shoot me a PM.
JPoV
Why Star Trek? Why? I mean, I love Clary, but this has got to be the nerdiest movie ever… Ugh. I groaned and shot Simon a look.
"Can we watch something else?"
"Nope."
I threw a pillow at his head. It didn't miss. Jace Herondale never misses.
"Ow!"
Simon squeaked from under the pillow.
"Dang Jace, that hurt!"
"Deal"
I smirked.
"You wanna watch Star Trek? Okay. I wanna throw pillows? Okay."
"Fine."
He griped.
"Why are we even doing this?"
"Because your fiancée wanted us to, who is, coincidentally, my best friend."
I rolled my eyes and huffed.
"Why don't we go train? That is so much more fun."
"Beg to differ."
Simon replied.
"At least we will finish this one, and then I can show you the wonders of Spongebob?"
"No. Absolutely not."
Simon groaned.
"What DO you want to do?"
"Train."
"Besides that?"
"You probably do not want the mental images."
I smirked. His eyes grew wide.
"You did NOT just go there."
"So what if I did? She is my fiancée."
"Oh, angel."
Simon buried his face in the pillow I had thrown at him earlier.
I laughed at his nausea.
"It's not like you and Izzy don't."
"Well, yeah, but how would you feel if I said something like that?"
"Well, I would run and barf and then murder you."
I replied, beginning to see where he was going with this.
"Well then how do you think I feel about Clary?"
"She isn't your sister."
"Izzy isn't yours, I may point out."
I walked into that one. Scrambling to recover my slip, I answered
"Well I have lived with her longer."
"Technically, we have lived with our 'sisters' the same amount of time."
"Fine."
I grumbled.
"Why is the movie still playing? Aren't movies like an hour and a half, usually? This has been playing for that long."
"Because,"
Simon smirked
"It is a two and a half hour movie"
"Kill me now."
I whined.
"Another HOUR of this?"
"Yep. Deal, Herondale"
I sighed, and resigned myself to some very in-depth nail care for the next hour.
SPoV
"FINALLY"
Jace roared
I rolled my eyes at him.
"I can't believe you."
"That was THE WORST two and a half hours of my life."
"I highly doubt that, Drama Queen."
I waited to see his response.
"What… what did you just call me?"
He spluttered.
"Drama Queen."
"I AM A MAN!"
"You are not, you are Drama Queen."
Jace huffed indignantly
"That."
He said
"Is Izzy's position. NOT. MINE."
"I'm sure she's happy to co-rule"
I picked up my phone to text her.
"NOOOOOO"
Jace bellowed
"You know, Jace"
I began casually
"The fact that you are being so adamant proves my point. The liar is always adamant that he is truthful, the coward quick to say he is courageous. All that."
"Idiot."
Jace replied passionately.
"I may be a drama king, but no way in hell am I a drama queen."
I rolled my eyes
"Whatever Herondale. We will settle this when the girls come back."
"How long did they say they were going to be gone?"
"Well, they left at ten this morning, so probably around four or five."
Jace groaned
"Another FOUR HOURS alone with you? That. Is. Awful."
Now it was my turn to chuck a pillow at his head. It nailed him on the nose, much to my pleasure.
"LEWIS"
He roared
I laughed, and ran upstairs.
He ran after me, armed with pillows.
I, however, had a secret.
For times such as these, I had an emergency stash of water balloons, and snowballs.
Jace's head appeared at my door, only to be hit with a water balloon.
The look on his face…. I ran.
We chased each other, each losing, then winning a little each time, until both of our stomachs were roaring at us so indignantly that we called truce to go eat.
With some surprise, we noticed that it was already two.
"Ungh."
Jace groaned.
"Jace the mighty and awesome and all powerful is going to take a shower."
I rolled my eyes, but let it slide. We were both desperately in need of a shower.
-_-_-_-_-After Showers-_-_-_-_-
JPoV
Simon and I met up in the living room after our showers.
"Jace?"
Simon said seriously.
I sensed that now was not a time to joke, so I put away my sarcasm.
"What, Lewis?"
"Ooookay… I have no idea how to say this, so I'm going to vomit words at you."
Uh oh. Is Izzy pregnant?
I nodded at him
"Speak"
He took a deep breath
"IwanttomarryIzzyandamaskingyouforpermissionbecausesheisnotongoodtermswithherfatherandIwillaskAlectooIloveherpleasesayyes"
"Come again?"
I asked.
He took another deep breath and said
"I want to marry Izzy and I'm asking for your permission because she is not on good terms with her father. I am planning on asking Alec for his permission as well. I love her very much, please say yes!"
I was shocked. Stunned. Speechless.
"Um"
I said intelligently
"Okay, Simon. You have my blessing. Just, harm one cell of her body and you will cease to exist."
He stood there, stunned as I had been a moment before.
Then, the biggest grin I had ever seen spread across his face. He whooped and jumped.
I smiled at his joy. He obviously loved Izzy very much.
"Jace."
He said, still grinning.
"You have just made me so unimaginably happy. Thank you, Jace."
Those words were so heartfelt, I was amazed.
"You… You are welcome, Lewis."
A content silence settled over us, and we curled up in the library, each doing his own thing.
-_-_-_-_-Two and a half hours pass-_-_-_-_-
I woke in half-light to kisses peppering my face.
"I missed you Jace"
Clary said happily
I pulled her into my lap and kissed her, tangling my fingers in that amazing hair of hers.
When we broke apart from our kiss, she giggled.
"I'm guessing you missed me too?"
"You can bet on it."
I said.
"How was Jaeda?"
She asked.
"I have no idea."
I said
"Magnus and Alec aren't back yet."
"Oh, okay."
She replied.
"How was your bro time?"
"It was… interesting."
I answered honestly. I was sworn to secrecy about Simon planning on proposing, unfortunately.
"Let's go eat dinner, I'm staaaaarving!"
I chuckled, and we stood up to go eat.
And that's a wrap. Longest chapter yet! I plan on this being a very long story, at least fifty chapters, so plenty more coming. Hopefully this wasn't too painful… So, Simon's going to try to get Alec's blessing in the next chapter. How should he propose to Izzy? Please leave thoughts on your way out.
Also, thanks for all the reviews last chapter! I was so happy, I didn't know that many people cared enough to review! Also, to the reviewer who asked what Jaeda looked like, and everyone else for that matter, I am so sorry I forgot to put that in, I will have it in the next chapter when Magnus and Alec get back with her.
I will update as soon as possible, but life is still hectic, so bear with me :)
thanks in advance for any reviews I get!
