Chapter 14
Kit's POV*
It's a week to our wedding. Magnus and Alec were here. Tavvy, Rafe, and Max were playing somewhere in the Institute. Magnus was with me, in the library, and Alec is with Ty, in the training room.
"Hello? Are you even paying attention?" Magnus asks me. "Yeah," I lie. "Repeat what I just said," he says as he lifts up his eyebrow. "I don't know," I confess. "Ha, I knew it," he says jokingly. I roll my eyes at him, and try to pay attention.
"Why do we need to be 'coached'?" I ask Magnus.
"Because, why not?" He says.
"Because, I could be doing other things."
"Like what?"
"Um, I don't know. Training. Practicing runes. Studying. Hanging out with Ty."
"You mean, 'making out with Ty'?"
"Yes, that's what I meant."
"Well Julian wants you guys to be 'coached'." He says. I roll my eyes, and pay attention to what he is saying.
I finally get out of that room, two hours later. I go to our room, and jump in the shower. A couple minutes later, Ty comes up behind me. "Hey, beautiful," he whispers in my ear, and puts his arms around my waist. "Hey," I whisper back. I turn around to face him, and smile. He leans up, and places his lips on mine. I push him to the wall, and kiss him harder. He parts his lips, and runs his tongue over the seam of my lips. I part my lips, and meet his tongue with mine.
I pull away, and start to breathe, heavily. We were basically sucking the air out of each other. Ty pushes past me, and starts to clean himself. I roll my eyes, and step out. I toweled myself off, and go to find some clothes. Ty comes out a few minutes after I did. I kisses me sweetly, and pulls me off the bed. "It's only six, let's go train," he says. I nod and let him pull me out of the room.
Ty looked me straight in the eye, and lunged. I lunged too, but to the side, so I wouldn't get hit by him. We were practicing hand to hand combat. Ty runs at me, and I lunge at him, hitting him straight in the stomach. Ty grunts and starts to drop his weight. I let him go, and quickly pin him to the floor. He leans up, and kisses me quickly, I lean into him, and he flips us over. "Never let yourself get distracted," he says. I roll my eyes at him, and he gets up. He puts his hand out, and I take it to pull myself up. I walk over to the sword wall, I pick up two evenly sized swords, and toss one at Ty. He easily grabs it, and we both get into a fighting stance. "Dinner is ready," Julian says, and walks out. Ty takes the sword out of my hand, and puts both of them back on the wall.
"Guess what?" Dru asks me. "What?" I ask. "You're supposed to guess. But, next week is your guys' wedding!" She say. "I know," I tell her. She rolls her eyes, and goes back to eating her food. Ty starts to spin the ring on my finger. "It's okay, Ty," I say, so only he can hear. "I'm not nervous, I just like to play with it," he whispers back. I nod, and go back to eating my food.
A Few Days Later*
Ty's POV*
Kit and I were in the closet, throwing clothes into some suitcases. "We are only going to be there for five days," I tell him. "I know," he says, and pulls two pairs of pants out of the suitcase. "Are you two ready?" Julian asks from the doorway. "Yeah, almost," I call. "Tessa is here, so hurry," he says and walks to the library. I run into out I the main room, and grab the dagger I held to Kit's neck. "Why are you bringing that?" Kit asks. "Because I want too," I tell him. He rolls his eyes, and closes his suitcase. I place the dagger in my suitcase, and close it.
"You guys are slow," Tessa says as we walk into the room. I shrug, and she starts to open the portal. "Ty, I've never been to Idris, or through a portal," Kit whispers. "Well, I have been, so hold onto me, and you'll be fine," I whisper back. "Are you ready?" Tessa asks Kit. "Yeah, I guess," he replies, and takes ahold of my hand. Tavvy and Dru go through first, then Mark, then Emma and Julian. "You two are the last to go. Hurry up," Tessa says. I look at Kit, and we jump through the portal.
"It's so beautiful," Kit says when we hit the ground. I laugh at him. "Stop laughing," Kit says shyly. "Never," I whisper and kiss him on the cheek. "Let's go, lovebirds," Julian says jokingly. I roll my eyes at him, and we start walking to the Blackthorn house.
When we get there Kit stares in awe, at everything. "Kit, stop," I say. "Why? It's all so beautiful," he says, looking at the ceiling. I roll my eyes, and pull him up the stairs to my room. "And this is my room," I tell him. "I like ours better," Kit says, sitting in the bed. I laugh, "I do too." I lean down, and kiss him on the lips. Sweetly at first, but Kit pulled me down on him. He started to fiddle with the hem of my shirt, and I let him take it off. He ran his hands up and down my chest, making me moan. "Kit, unfortunately we have to stop. We don't have our own corridor here. Besides, Julian's room is next to mine," I say against his lips. He just laughs, "Okay."
I started to put away my clothes, when Kit came up behind me and wrapped his arms around my waist. "Thank you, Ty," he said against my neck. "For what?" I ask. "Everything," he said. I turn and smile at him. "Thank you for everything, Kit," I say. Kit laughs, and starts to put his clothes away.
After dinner Kit had asked me if I could show him around. So we started walking down the street. I pointed out all the important things, such as, important shops, certain statutes, where the Mortal War had almost gotten to us. The Hall, the Gard, mostly everything. "Thanks," Kit said, as we walked back to the Blackthorn house. "No problem," I told him.
"Breakfast is ready," Dru said pounding on the door. "Ugh, mornings" Kit said into my hair. "You learn to love them," I say back, and roll of the bed. Kit gave me a funny look, and rolled off the bed too. We both put our clothes on, and walked down the the kitchen. "Hey," Julian said. "Hey," Kit said back. "Tomorrow is the big day," Julian told us. "Can't wait," I told him. "Magnus and Alec wanted to meet with you two, in the square. Around ten, I think," Julian informed us. Kit shrugged and started eating his breakfast.
We left the house around nine-thirty, to go to the square and meet up with Magnus and Alec. "You guys finally show up," Alec said. I roll my eyes at him, and he laughs. "So, you two know that you guys are sleeping in separate houses tonight, right?" Magnus asks. "Houses? I thought just different rooms," Kit says, with wide eyes. Alec laughs again. "Well, we can't trust you two," Magnus said. "I'm going to hate tonight," Kit says under his breath. I laugh at him, "What's so funny?" Alec asks. I shake my head, I'm not going to tell them anything. "You're coming with me," Magnus says to Kit. He rolls his eyes, and walks behind him. "And you're with me, Ty," Alec says.
We start walking back to the Blackthorn house. "Why are we here?" I ask. "This is where you and I are staying tonight," he says. "I kinda live here," I say. "Yeah I know, but Kit doesn't so, you're staying here," Alec says, again. We walk in the door, and Julian greets Alec. "Is the rest of the gang here, with you?" Julian asks Alec. "No, they're at the Hall, seeing to the decorations," Alec says. Julian nods, and pulls me up to his room.
"Ready for tomorrow?" Julian asks me. I shrug, and he hands me a gold suit. "Put it on," Julian tells me. I roll my eyes, and go to the bathroom. I look really good. The suit fits me perfectly. I walk out to the main room, and everyone else in the house has joined Julian on the bed. I roll my eyes, and spin around so they can see the entire suit. "It looks so good!" Emma says. "Now, go take it off, so you don't ruin it," Julian instructs me. I turn on my heel, back to the bathroom and take it off.
"Thanks, Julian," I say as I come out of the bathroom. "No problem," he says, and I leave his room. It's about one, so I go on at walk, hoping to find Kit.
Kit's POV*
Magnus takes me to the Lightwood house. He shows me a room, and hands me a gold suit, to try on. I quickly put it on, and look at myself in the mirror. The suit fits perfectly. "Come out, so we can see," Jace says from the other side of the door. I roll my eyes, and walk out of the room. "It looks so good on you!" Clary says. "Gold looks good on anyone related to me," Jace says. We all laugh. "Spin around," Isabelle says. I roll my eyes, and spin around. "Now, go take it off! You don't want to ruin it," Magnus says. I roll my eyes, again, and walk into the room I was just in.
When I walk out of the room, only Jace is left. "Hey," he says. "Hey," I say back. He puts his arms around my shoulders, and walks me out of the house. "So, Ty Blackthorn?" Jace asks.
"Yeah," I say.
"What's up with him?"
"Well, he helped me a lot when I first showed up to the L.A Institute, and I helped him."
"Sounds like Alec and I, except we didn't fall in love," Jace says jokingly.
I roll my eyes, and focus on the road.
"Are you seriously going to keep Ty and us apart?" I ask.
"Unfortunately, it's tradition, so you're going to have to deal with it."
I roll my eyes, when I see Ty walking down the other side of the street. I turn to Jace, who is focused on the road, and I run across the street. I take Ty into my arms and hug him. Jace gives me a dirty look, so I stick my tongue out at him. He rolls his eyes, and walks over to us. "They're planning on keeping us apart till tomorrow," I say to Ty. "Yeah I know. It's 'tradition'," Ty says mockingly. I laugh, and Jace asks what's funny. We both shake our heads. "Ty, go back to your house," Jace tells him. "Why? We just can't spend the night together," Ty says. "That's technically true. Damnit, you're right. I'll let Julian and them now. Just don't plan on sneaking out of your separate houses tonight," he says, and walks away.
I kiss Ty, and we walk to a bench on the canal. "Tonight's going to be like hell without you, Kit," Ty says to me. "I know, the same goes for me too," I tell him. He laughs, and pulls me into a hug. "Have you seen her, Kit?" Ty asks me. "No, unfortunately I haven't," I tell him. He frowns, and puts his head on my chest. "It's okay, though. That means she passed in peace," I tell him, and start to run my hand through his hair. "I know, but I wish I could talk to her, one more time, you know?" He says. "I know. I'd tell her, how much I love you, how much everything has changed since she's been gone. Also, that we still pretend that she's in our lives," I say. Ty looks up at me, with tears in his eyes. "Kit, that was beautiful. That's exactly what I would say to Livvy too," he says, and lays his head back on my chest.
"Do you want to adopt a child, after we get married?" I ask Ty, randomly. "Yes, I'd love too," he says. "We could name her Olive," I say. "Why a girl? Why not a boy?" Ty asks. "We can get both. But at least one girl," I say. "What would we name the boy?" He asks. "How about Johnny?" I ask. "That's a nice name. For your father, right?" He asks. I nod, and he smiles at me.
"They are going to start looking for us soon," Ty says. "I know, I'll walk you back to the Blackthorn house," I say. "Okay," Ty says, and we stand up. We walk hand in hand, until we get to the Blackthorn house. Ty stops in front of me. "Goodnight, I'll see you tomorrow, at the altar," Ty says, then kisses me sweetly on the lips. "Goodnight, my love. I'll see you on the altar as well," I say to him. I hug him tightly, then allow him to walk up the steps of the house. I turn on my heel, and walk back to the Lightwood house.
Jace and Alec make jokes about Ty and me, over dinner. I roll my eyes at most of them, or laugh. When dinner is over, I go to the room they gave me, and get ready for bed. "Hello?" Jace asks for the other side of the door. "Come in," I call. "Hey, who did you pick to be your best man?" He asks. "I haven't. Dru forgot to inform me I needed one," I say. "You can be it if you want to be," I say. "I'd love to be," he says. "Goodnight," I say. "Night," Jace says, and walks out the door.
Last night was the worst sleep I've ever had. Ty wasn't there, so it was cold, and the bed seemed super hard, even though it wasn't.
Jace woke me up bright and early. "Wake up, today is your wedding," he screams in my face. "Okay, okay, I'm up," I say. "Then get out of bed," he says. I roll out of bed, and stand in front of him. "Go shower, you stink," Jace says. "Thanks," I say, and go to the bathroom.
I quickly take a shower, and dress, then step out into the main room. Jace isn't in the room anymore, but the suit he had me put on yesterday is. I put the suit on, and make sure my hair is dry. I comb it out of my face, and I think I'm ready. "Knock, knock. It's me Isabelle," Izzy says from the other side of the door. "Come in," I call. She comes in, and sits in the bed. "You need help," she says simply. I roll my eyes, and she takes the comb out of my hand. She combs my hair, so it's out of my face for me, but looks like it's in my face. "Thank you," I say, when she's done. She nods and walks out of the room.
Shortly after Jace shows up at the door.
"Are you ready?" Jace asks.
"For what? To leave, yeah, I'm ready to leave," I say.
"Well yeah, but are you ready to get married?"
"I think so."
"You've got to be sure."
"I am sure, just nervous."
"I would be too."
I nod, and we walk down to the kitchen. "Food's ready!" Izzy says. "Yay! I'm starving," I joke. I sit down and quickly eat. "Now got brush your teeth," Clary says. "Are you my mother now?" I ask jokingly. Everyone except Clary laughs. "Jace!" She says. "What? It's funny," he says. I laugh again, and go upstairs to brush my teeth.
It was around ten, when we all walk to the hall. "Ty wants you to walk down the aisle," Jace says. "Probably because he proposed," I say. Jace laughs, and we continue our walk to the hall.
"Hey, Kit," Julian says. "Ty's already up there," he keeps going. "Okay," I say. "You better be ready. You're marrying my younger brother," he says. "I am. I'm just nervous," I tell him. "Ty is too. Now let's start," he says, and runs back in the room.
