Chapter Eleven

Time Jump- Clary Graduation

Jace POV:

I couldn't be more proud of how far Clary has come in her life. She was graduating from college, with a job already lined up for her. I couldn't help but be completely amazed by her every single day. She survived hell, and now I was going to make sure she was in heaven for the rest of our lives. The ceremony started and it was extremely boring. I was just waiting for it to be over so I could get Clary in my arms. My whole family came down to watch her, but there was another reason why I wanted them down here. I was going to ask Clary to marry me. I know we are only 19, and 20, but there isn't anyone else in this world who I wanted to be with. We were each others family now, and I was going to start living like that as soon as I could.

Soon the ceremony was over and we were standing around waiting for Clary to come find us, and soon there was a pair of arms wrapped around neck. I turned around and saw Clary smiling at me. I smiled back and gave her a kiss.

"Congratulations babe." I said and she smiled.

"Thanks." She says and we turn towards her family. "I really appreciate you all coming down here for this. It means a lot."

"Of course Clary." Maryse said. "You're like a daughter to me, and we wouldn't miss this for the world." She gives Clary a hug followed by the rest of my family. We make our way out to the restaurant for dinner and I'm extremely excited to experience life with Clary as my fiancé. We have an amazing dinner, and when they bring out desert I'm starting to get nervous. I had the chef write out 'Will you marry me?' in chocolate and I was excited to see Clary read it. Her desert was the last one to be brought out, and I watched her the entire time. She didn't even realize it at first but once she saw it she started crying. I took this opportunity to get up and a I took her hands in mine and made her stand with me.

"I know we're young, but that doesn't mean that I love you any less. I want to spend the rest of my life with you, and I hope you feel the same way. I love you more than anything Clary, and I can't promise you perfection, but I can promise you everything I have. Will you marry me?" I said and she nodded and threw her arms around my neck and I couldn't help but smile as the rest of my family clapped. When she finally pulled away I slide the ring on her finger and she gave me a kiss. This was going to be the best life possible, I just knew it.

Time Jump – Six Months Later

Clary POV:

I had been up to my eye balls in wedding planning. Izzy and I had been face timing almost every single night to talk details, and she was coming down with Maryse in a month to go dress shopping. So far everything was going well. We would be getting married in a year, and it would be a summer wedding, July 19th to be exact. I couldn't be happier with the way my life turned out. I was currently sitting on the couch scrolling through possible guests when Jace came home from class.

"Hey babe." I yelled when I heard the door close. He walked over and gave me a kiss on the head. "How was class?"

"Eh. I envy you. I wish I was done already." He said and I laughed.

"Yea, I was an overachiever but can you blame me?" I said and he took a seat beside me.

"Not at all." He said and he put his arm around my shoulder. "What are you doing?"

"Narrowing down the guest list. I don't want over 150 people and right now we're hovering at around 185."

"Who knew we knew that many people." He said and I laughed.

"Well, you had a lot of friends in high school, and our college friends, and your family. Plus all the plus ones, its a lot."

"Well, is there anyone you really don't want to invite?" He said and I looked through the list.

"I really don't want Sebastian there." I said and he looked at me. "He wasn't very nice to me in high school. I know he was your friend, but he saw how Jon treated me and went along with it."

"Than Sebastian is definitely not invited." He said and I smiled. "Anyone else?"

"Well, that one girl who is in your one class, she has asked you for tutoring on more than one occasion, I don't want her there. Call it jealousy, but I really don't want her there." I said and he laughed, than kissed my temple.

"Of course. I want this day to be all about you, if you don't want anyone there, you can not invite them." He said and I smiled.

"Alright, well you go do your homework, and maybe start dinner, while I work on this." I said and he got up and leaned down and pressed his lips to mine.

"Anything for you Clare." He said and I couldn't help but smile.

"I don't know what I did to deserve you." I said and he smiled.

"You stayed, and you trusted me, and you gave yourself to me when you were convinced no body would love you. You are my life Clary, and I don't know what I'd do without you." He said and I single tear fell down my cheek.

"I love you so much Jace."

"I love you too Clare." He said as he kissed my lips. "Now, I'm going to make some dinner. I'll call you when it's ready." He said and I smiled. Jace left to go to the kitchen, and I couldn't even begin to describe how happy I was that I was going to marry that man. I stopped looking at him and back at the guest list, god this sucked.
