Chapter 3

About 3 hours later I finally got discharged and we were heading to the car. Isabelle gave me another crop top, black harem pants, black converses and an over-sized cardigan: since everything else was bloody.

"Sorry Clare, But I need to go to the studio and work my shift. Need anything?" Izzy asked hugging me.

I thought for a second. "Um, just my sketching things, and my newest painting."

"Got it. Bye! See you later hun." She yelled walking to her car. I leaned on Jace and climbed into the passenger side.

Jace got in on the other side. "So do you quickly want to get lunch at Taki's?" He asked and I nodded. As he drove towards the restaurant he questioned. "So when do you think the bleeding will stop?"

I sighed. "I honestly don't know. The doctor said maybe in ten days but probably when my bloody womb fixes itself. Sorry for the pun."

We sat in a small booth just making small talk when the waitress came by. "Hey, my names Megan, I'm your waitress for today. What would you like?"

Jace looked at me and I said. "Um, I'd have the chicken tenders, fries and fruit smoothie."

She batted her eyes at Jace. "I'd like the same."

She left and I rested my head on Jace. "I'm really sore."

"Okay just sit here for a moment I'll be right back." Jace stood up and went to talk to the waitress. He came back with our food in two brown bags. "Come on let's go back to yours."

We made it back to my house and I was told to relax while Jace got our food sorted. So I plonked down on my soft couch. Jace returned with the food.

After eating the food I suddenly had an idea. "Jace. I know we hardly know each other. But with the baby and my condition. I figure you won't want to leave me alone. Would you like to move in here with me?" A couple seconds went past and he hadn't said anything. "Oh Angel, I'm sorry I said anything."

I was going to say more but I was stopped with Jace's lips on mine. "I'd love to move in here with you. I'll just get my things when Isabelle comes."

We started kissing for a little bit then suddenly a knock came from the front door. I went to get up but Jace held me down. "I'll get it." He stands up and leaves.

I lay down and thought of my crazy week so far. I heard voices and tried to decipher who they belonged to because they sounded so familiar. Then I heard footsteps coming from the front and the sight of my little niece running towards me. With Jace, Jonathan and Kaelie behind.

Little Millie jumped up and hugged me until I hissed in pain. "Hey Millie, I'm sorry but I'm not feeling too well today. Why don't you go to the games room?"

"That's alright auntie." She jumped up and ran down the hallway.

Jace came to me and helped me stand up. Then Jon hugged me. "Hey Jon. Kaelie."

"Hey Clare-bear. Why aren't you feeling well?"

"Well I think you should sit down for this." We all sat down, Kaelie and Jon on the love seat and me leaning next to Jace on my spot on the sofa. "Please don't yell, but I'm pregnant."

I closed my eyes ready for a yelling then. "That's good news. But why don't you feel alright?"

"I've been in the hospital all night. Yesterday I had really bad stomach pains and then there was blood and a lot of it. Jace drove me to the hospital. I thought I was having a miscarriage, but turns out I have Placenta Previa. It's when my placenta has slid down to cover my cervix. Luckily it is higher and doesn't cover much. Unfortunately that means I'm basically on bed rest until I have our baby."

Jon catches the 'our' and looks at Jace questionably. "So you're the dad?"

"Yeah."

"I'm just over 18 weeks and we're having a daughter."

Kaelie surprisingly jumped up and hugged me. "That's great I'm so happy for you! Now I'm just going to get Millie. We should get back to the house."

"So big bro why you in Miami?"

"Kaelie's opened a new fashion line with your friend Magnus. We told him to keep quiet about it and so we just moved down here."

"Wow that's great." I slowly stood up when Millie and Kaelie walked in. "Congratulations Kaelie." I hugged her and knelt down to Millie's height. "Hey Mills. How are you?"

"Great auntie Clary! We moved here. And I get to see you more!" I smiled. I loved her enthusiasm.

I looked up to see Jace, Jon and Kaelie having a conversation. "Hey, do you want to hear something?" She shook her head violently. "You are going to have a little cousin in a few months."

Millie looked shocked. "What? How?"

I patted my stomach. "She is in here. Now you must be very careful with me for a while. Let's just say I have a sore tummy." She looked to where I was patting and put her hand down softly, the hugged me around my middle.

"I can't wait to have a cousin!" I looked up to see Kaelie coming towards us.

"Come on Munchkin. We need to get going. Thanks for having us Clare."

We walked outside and saw Isabelle's car pulling into the drive. "Hey Iz!" Jon yelled when she ran out her car and hugged him and Kaelie.

"By the Angel! Why are you here?!"

"I opened a business with Magnus." Kaelie said when Izzy bent down to hug Millie.

"Hey Mushroom. Haven't seen you in a while."

"Hi auntie Izzy. Guess what?"

"Um, you're a vampire?" Isabelle guessed.

"No! I am going to have a cousin in a few months! Bye, bye. Mommy said we have to go home." She hugged Jace and I one more time and jumped into the back seat of Jonathan's car.

"Okay. We should go now. Bye guys!" Jon yelled from the driver's side. With that they drove off down the street.

"Hi Isabelle." Jace said taking my hand.

"Hey Jace. Clary. Please call me Izzy, or Iz." She turned to me. "How are you feeling Clare-bear?"

"Good actually. Seeing Jon again made me somewhat stronger and happier. So did you bring my things?" She walked back to her car and opened the trunk.

"Here it all is. Now I need to go, got a hot date with Simon. See you later!"

Jace picked up my things and walked with me back inside. "Your niece is so adorable."

"Yeah she is. You looking forward to having one of those soon?"

"Hell yeah!"
