Epilogue

Clary's Point of View

Jace traced my lips with his index finger slowly and I sighed before closing my eyes. We were in the greenhouse – where no one else could come – and we wanted some alone time.

"Open your eyes," Jace said before I opened them just in time to see his face nearing my own.

I closed the remaining distance between us and wrapped my arms around his neck. His lips were warm and soft against mine before Jace pulled back slightly. "I have a present for you," he whispered, pulling a box out of his pocket.

He held his hand out that and before I could touch it, he flicked it open. Inside, nestling against black velvet was a ring. "Jace…" I whispered, thinking I was going to faint. "Please do not tell me that you're proposing." I just turned 18 today, and I sure wasn't going to get married at that age.

Jace scoffed before taking the ring out from the box. "Do you see me going on one knee?" he asked, rolling his eyes. "I'm not proposing just yet." He wiggled his eyebrows at me and I laughed, my heart swelling to twice its size.

Just yet . That's what he said. I smiled despite myself, feeling giddy with joy. "Now, you want to wear the ring?" He slipped it on my index finger and twined his fingers in mine afterwards.

"Did it really look like a wedding ring?" Jace asked, looking at me.

I licked my lips. "Well, it was shiny so…and normally when a guy has a box and there's a ring…" I trailed off, knowing that he knew what I meant.

"Shiny?" Jace laughed. "Well, I guess its sterling silver for a reason."

"Jace, you don't have to spend so much money on me," I told him. Really, it was unnecessary sometimes. And sterling silver on top of that? He already got me two more of my own twin blades and new Shadowhunting gear – I had a mini growth spurt, thank the Angel, even if it was only an inch or two.

He waved his hands, and I just rolled my eyes. "I still have one last present," he said, with a sly look coming across his face.

"Jace…" I said warningly. The sparkle in his golden eyes was scaring me.

"Oh, stop worrying so much. Let's go cut your cake," he said, pulling me up to my feet, holding my hand all the way into the kitchen. Even then he didn't let go.

Everyone was there: Izzy, Simon – the Mark of the Cain let him in – Alec and surprisingly even Magnus though I thought that he was mostly there for Alec rather than me.

They all starting singing happy birthday to me and Jace and I cut the cake after he wrapped one arm securely around my waist. Then he shoved a giant piece of chocolate in my face and put some of the frosting all over my face.

"Jace! Do you know how long I spent to make her look pretty?" Izzy asked, annoyed but she was smiling. Izzy insisted on doing some make up on me and I finally gave in but told her very little.

Of course, her version of very little is different – that's an understatement for sure – from mine. She ended up making me look a hundred times better than I usually did. Jace just rolled his eyes in response. After everyone feed me, Jace took the cloth that was over something and I saw a gigantic present. Like, it was life-size except wider than a normal person.

I fingered the bow, wondering how in the world they made something that big. "Open it," Jace whispered, coming from behind me and wrapping his hands around my waist and resting his chin on my shoulder. Normally I would blush when he did that in front of everyone but I was too distracted by the giant present. Did I mention that it was shiny? Well it was. I feel like Magnus had something to do with that…

I untied the bow and started opening the lids when it burst open by itself and people jumped out of the box with superhuman grace and strength. I stared at the black, brown and silver heads in disbelief.

I forgave them yes – even more so with time that passed – but I wasn't sure if I was ready to see them yet. Well, one of them anyways. My mind flashed back on Jace's and my anniversy that passed a few months ago.

He had asked me if I was over it, and I said I was which was true. Aden looked up at me, smiling sheepishly. "Happy birthday!" he said, coming closer to me. I debated with myself to actually hug him or not, but I gave in. I had missed him more than I thought I did which was not at all.

His soft t-shirt rubbed against my cheek, different from the hard muscle that was underneath it. "Thanks," I said as I pulled back.

"No, thank you," he answered, his hair falling into his eyes.

I nodded, not really sure what exactly he was thanking me for. Maybe for forgiving him completely and letting him back in my life. "I'm sorry," I said unexpectedly. He shot me a puzzled look. "For….being so mean to you the last time we saw each other." I looked down at my shoes, realizing exactly how cruel I was.

I can't believe I actually said those thing to him. I felt horribly guilty. A finger pushed my chin up. "You have nothing to be sorry for. I would have done the same thing." Before I could reply Jace came to my side, snaking his arm around my waist.

Aden dropped his finger from his place under my chin and went to talk to Izzy. "What was that for?"

"I didn't like him being so close to you," he muttered, shrugging.

I felt the smile creeping up on my lips. "You were jealous," I accused.

His golden irises met mine. "Can you blame me? I already lost you once to him," he answered truthfully.

I rolled my eyes. "You never actually lost me Jace," I told him gently. "And besides, what about Selena over there?" I asked, jerking my thumb over at her direction who was currently talking to Simon with a pissed off looking Izzy at his side.

"She's no threat," he answered, pulling me close. The expecting lips were on my own and I kissed him back, hoping he got the message that I loved him. My past, his past, it all didn't matter. It was just me and him.

I wrapped my arm around his neck, pulling him closer so there was no chance of any air separating us, just clothing. Just when my lungs were about to complain, Jace pulled back, locking eyes for me for a moment before looking at the rest inhabits of the mini party.

Everyone else was watching us and I felt the blush blooming on my cheeks. I hadn't realized that they were watching. Ever heard of privacy? "Don't you guys have something to be doing?" Jace called out and everyone looked away.

We picked up where we left off, and it was sweeter than ever. His lips lasted like the sugary icing and the liquid sunshine that was always associated with him. His silky golden hair was soft under my fingers, and I could feel the taut skin under the soft skin and shirt.

"I love you," he whispered against my lips before they were replaced by his lips once more.

After the party went well into the night, Alec, Magnus, Simon, Izzy, Jace and Selena left me and Aden alone, going into their rooms in pairs or groups. I have even gotten a chance to talk to Selena, who was very sweet.

"So how've you been doing?" I asked, attempting to make conversation.

"It's been good, yours?" he asked looking at me.

"Same. A lot happened in those six months," I answered truthfully. I felt like I owed that to him at least.

"Yeah, so I can tell." If he said it in a different tone then the one he used, it would have sounded dry or that he was sad about that. But it was cheery instead.

"How so?" I asked, raising my eyebrows.

"Well, you got back with Jace for one," he answered, giving me a small smile. "I always knew that was going to happen. And aren't mad as hell at me anymore."

I gave a small little smile. "Yeah, sorry about that." He waved it off, like it was nothing. "So what did six months to do you?"

"Well," he paused, thinking about it. "We stayed right here in New York City."

"Really?" I asked. I thought that they would have left to go somewhere else – far away – but here they were, right here.

"Yeah. Me and Selena got some jobs."

"That's it?" I asked, knowing there was more to the story. I was surprised at how well I could still read him and I could just tell that he was holding something back.

He scratched the back of his neck before answering. "Yeah, well, Selena found a guy. And I kinda sorta meet this girl…"

FIN

DELETE: Sorry guys but you guys didn't get the 200 or more prize….I only got 5 reviews….two short again! And for my last two chapters too so I'm not really feeling the love. And no inside look at my project…I was really wanting to show you guys. Oh well.

Haha, I know, short. But did you like it? And I'm so sorry that it was overdue! It's been like two weeks right? Well, I've been insanely busy and uninspired to write the last chapter. I know that's no excuse but you can blame my dance and school (yeah, it started for me on Tuesday). I had a dance practice that was seven whole hours! Yeah, as you can imagine, it was horrible aha.

Good news though, you guys made the goal :) Bad news, you guys almost didn't but since someone reviewed for the first chapter (new reader, whoo!) but thanks to that person you guys get it. So enjoy :)

Sneak Peak:

"Okay," I said, not knowing what else to say or do.

"So, can you get that proof? Become closer to him, gain his trust?" She leaned forward, her hair falling around her face like a dark curtain.

I swallowed before answering, hoping that my voice wasn't shaking. "Yes."

So those words are mine, please don't like steal them or anything and blah blah blah XP I know it's confusing but hey, who said I wasn't going to make it like that? Maybe one day if you see this in a published book one day, you'll know it's me :D And I'll be thanking everyone who supported icyfirelove3 aka me.

Anyways, this is it. The end. No more…well, actually I'm lying. I'm thinking of something… :D

And I think JaD will still be on hold for those of you who still like it.

And for anyone who like's CoolestxNerd (I'm her beta) I'm taking over her story. So if any of her fans know that, or anyone who's a fan of me (hehe) So the first three chapters are in her writing, not mine. I just edited them. That's just so you know when you see them. After the first three it will be all me

Goal: 207? And you guys can get 210 (10 reviews) then I'll give maybe another inside look (not sure about that yet) and a really awesome announcement that will make you very very very more secret words *tears*

You're fanfic writer that takes reviews like ice cream (and I can eat ice cream all day XD) ,
