But I do however have major needs for some writing, so I'm getting my fix by writing this fanfic Bet y'all are happy for my insomnia!! Haha Here you go
Oh! Btw, this story is a few years after City of Glass and Clary and Jace are visiting Alicante with Jocelyn and Luke.
I'm Only Me When I'm With You-Taylor Swift
The soft sounds of crickets and other nightly creatures created the symphony for Clary and Jace as they lay almost motionlessly in the backyard of Amatis's backyard. Luke, Jocelyn and Amatis were inside, enjoying each other's company while Jace and Clary stared at the stars that they couldn't see in New York.
"That looks like Simon when he drank the potion at Magnus's party a few years ago." Jace said, pointing to a cluster of stars. Clary looked over at the spot he was pointing to and snorted. "You're on crack." She said, gazing at the other stars, getting her position back. She was using Jace's other arm as a pillow. A very hard, warm pillow.
"Am not." Jace said, sounding mockingly hurt. She laughed, nodding her head. "That's Orion moron." Clary said. Jace frowned staring at it harder. "Still looks like rat Simon." He muttered.
It had been three wonderful, glorious years since they had found out the news, that they weren't siblings whatsoever. Since then, Jace had trained Clary to become one of the best shadow hunters out there. They worked as a pair, as one unbeatable person, when they fought. They knew each other like they knew the back of their hand.
Jace had only ever opened up to one person and that person was laying on his arm, one eye closed, her mouth slightly ajar, trying to trace some star constellation in the sky with her fingers. He was only himself around her and it scared him sometimes, the things she brought out of him. But he loved her more than he loved anything else in the world and dealt with the fear like he dealt with that demon two weeks ago. Squished.
Jace bent his face down to kiss Clary's fiery red hair, enjoying how her mouth formed a large smile. Sure she drove him crazy half the time but he couldn't picture a world without her. It was like picturing a world without coffee. A very scary world indeed.
"Oh! Look! It's Saturn!" Clary said excitedly, pointing her finger excitedly in the sky. Jace only saw a star that shined a little bit brighter and was slightly bigger but he didn't say anything. He just chuckled, squeezing her tighter while she was to see its rings.
"Clary?" He said, catching her attention for a brief second. "Yeah?" She asked, looking up at him. He could see into those emerald pools that never seemed to end. It was like staring into space, as they were doing now, it had no stopping point.
"I love you." He said, getting her to smile and slightly flush. She reached her head up to kiss him full on the lips but pulled away quickly, leaving Jace unsatisfied. "I love you too." She whispered, a comet flying through the sky catching her eye.
"Oh my god! Look!" She cried, her attention completely diverted. Jace sighed, softly chuckling to himself. "Oh look a chicken." He mumbled, glad she didn't hear him. That would have resulted in some very bad results. Probably a smack on the head which would result in a headache or she would hit his chest, bruising him again. Or he'd end up sleeping on the floor last time he insulted her.
A sudden idea struck him. Oh yes, it'd be insulting by far, but she may laugh. Maybe. Slight chance. A risk worth taking. He was going to find her a shirt with that saying on it. Some mundane must have made it by now. It was a mundane expression.
"Why are you smiling so vicious?" Clary asked, rolling herself over so she was now lying on his chest. "I always smile vicious. It scares people." Jace said grinning. Clary chuckled, resting her head against his shoulder.
"I'm tired." She said, yawning into his shirt. "So I went from boyfriend, to pillow, to bed within an hour? How demeaning." Jace said, but gave her a smile so she wouldn't take him too seriously. She slapped his arm half-heartedly.
"Hey. Easy tiger. Bed privileges only come from no abuse." Jace teased. Clary looked up to glare at him, making him think of a kitten trying to be vicious. Of course Jace had seen Clary kill more demons than she weighed in a matter of minutes with a simple rune. "Do you want a place to sleep tonight that isn't walked on?" She asked him in a low, serious voice. "No ma'am." Jace replied and she put her head back done.
"Alrighty then. Shut that cocky mouth of yours." Clary responded, her voice muffled. Jace chuckled, pushing back many of her sarcastic comments. He raised a hand to her hair, gentle brushing it down her back. Her breathing slowed and he knew she was falling asleep. He let her, knowing he could carry her inside later.
"I love you Clarissa Fray. You're the only one for me." He said, feeling just the slightest bit cheesy before kissing her hair again, returning his gaze to the stars.
A/N: YAY! More Clary and Jace fluff. Lol Hoped you all liked it. That song was a pain to write for, surprisingly enough. R&R please!!
