Chapter Thirteen

Time Jump – Birth

Clary POV:

I went into labor last night and this baby still wasn't coming out. I was in so much pain that all I could do was cry. Jace was standing next to me the whole time trying everything he could think of to try and make me more comfortable. Honestly the only thing that would work was to get this baby out of me, and I had no idea how much longer that was going to take. So far I've been in labor for about 15 hours, and I think if he or she doesn't come out soon, I might murder someone.

"Alright Clary, let's see how far you're dilated." The doctor said as she came in and checked me out. "Alright sweetie, you are ready to push."

"Oh thank god. I thought I was never going to get my baby." I said and the doctor laughed.

"When the next contraction hits, I want you to push." The doctor said and a minute later the next contraction hit and I pushed harder than I thought I possibly could and let the screams fill the air. "Alright Clary, take a breather."

"I don't want ta breather, I want my baby." I said and the doctor nodded.

"I know, but this might take some time." She said and I leaned back and took a breath. "Alright, next contraction push again." She said and I nodded. A couple minutes later the next contraction hit and I pushed as much as I could. "Come on Clary, you are almost there." She said and I cried even louder. "Okay, take a breath."

"Is this ever going to end?" I asked and she laughed.

"One more push should get this baby out of you." She said and I nodded. "Okay, next contraction you should have your baby." She said as I waited for the contraction. A minute later it hit and I pushed more than I thought I'd be able too. I was started to think I was never going to meet my baby until I heard the cries. I looked up at Jace who was smiling from ear to ear and I couldn't stop the tears. "Congratulations you two. You are the proud parents of a beautiful little girl." She said as she held her up. The nurses soon took her away and cleaned her off.

"I can't believe we have a baby." I said to Jace and he pressed his lips to my head.

"Me either." He said and the nurse came back to use with a pink bundle in her arms. I grabbed her and looked at her for the first time.

"She has your blonde hair." I said to Jace and he leaned down and pressed his lips to her forehead.

"I love you Scarlett Jane Lightwood." Jace said to her and I smiled. "And I love you Clarissa Adele Lightwood."

"I love you more Jonathan Christopher Lightwood." I said and he smiled. "She's perfect."

"Yea she is." Jace said and I smiled. Nothing could compare to this moment.

Time Jump – One Year Later

Jace POV:

Scarlett was turning one tomorrow and I was out buying her a gift. We weren't doing anything big, but my family was coming down to see her, and celebrate with her. This past year has been the most eventful in my whole life. Scarlett was amazing, and she was the perfect combination of Clary and I. She had my blonde hair, with Clary's emerald green eyes. She was the happiest baby I've ever met, and she was so incredibly beautiful that I knew later in life I was going to be in for it with the boys.

When I got home my family was already there and Maryse was already holding Scarlett. I smiled and made my way over and took a seat next to Clary. I absolutely loved my life and couldn't be any happier, and when Maryse turned Scarlett around and she saw me her eyes lit up.

"Hi baby girl." I said and she giggled.

"Dada!" She said and my smile got even bigger.

"That's my girl." I said and she giggled again and reached her arms out. I stood up and picked her up and gave her a hug.

"Dada!" She said again and I took a seat back down next to Clary. I sat her on my lap and she looked up at Clary and smiled. "Mama!" She said and Clary smiled even more than she already was.

"I'll take it." Clary said and everyone laughed. She leaned forwards and pressed her lips to Scarlett's and it caused her to giggled again.

"When did you guys get here?" I asked after a moment.

"20 minutes ago." Maryse said and I nodded.

"How was the flight?" I asked.

"It was good. Too long in my opinion, I just wanted to see my grandbaby." Maryse said and I smiled. "She's gotten so big since the last time I saw her."

"I know. She's been growing so fast I don't know who she'll take after." Clary said as she played with Scarlett's fingers. "I kinda hope she gets stuck in the middle."

"Why?" Izzy asked.

"Being short kinda sucks and when girls are tall it creates a bunch of self esteem issues. I just want her to be in the middle and happy with her height." Clary said and Izzy nodded.

"I get that. I have always hated being tall." Izzy said.

"And I hated being short." Clary replied and they both laughed.

"No matter how tall or short she is she is Jace is going to be chasing off the guys with how beautiful she is going to get." Maryse said and I growled.

"Don't remind me. I'm already dreading it." I said and everyone laughed.

"You have some time babe." Clary said and I laughed.

"Not enough. I want her to stay this young forever." I said as I pressed my lips to the top of her head.

"So do I." Clary said and I pulled her into my side.

"So, I was going to cook dinner tonight, and I want you both to have the night off." Maryse said and I smiled.

"You don't have to do the Maryse." I said and she shook her head.

"I know how tiring it is to raise a baby, you two deserve a night off." She said and I nodded.

"Thank you." I said and she smiled and made her way into the kitchen.

"Alright, it's Aunt Izzy's time with baby Scarlett." She said and I handed her over. "I still don't understand why you named her Scarlett. It's such an old name."

"Well, when you have a baby, you may name him or her whatever you desire. Clary and I loved the name, and when we saw her, it was perfect." I said and she nodded.

"It would have been better if she had red hair." Izzy said and Clary laughed.

"That would have just set her up for bad redhead jokes." Clary said and I couldn't help but smile. Everyone was doing great, life couldn't be better, Scarlett was healthy, and happy and Clary and I were more in love than we were yesterday. Everything seemed to be falling into place and I couldn't imagine my life getting any better than it already is.
