disclaimer: I have nothing to do, whatsoever, with the talented Ms. Clare.
Jace watched as Clary crossed the street. He wasn't expecting to see her today, especially here. Jace had gone back to Idris on a special request from the Clave. Clary knew he was going to be tied up for a number of days. She had seemed sad when he left, but he assumed she was just sad because he was leaving. Now, he reconsidered that thought. Maybe she was sad over something else. He decided to follow her and see where she was going. He kept his distance when she came in front of a flower shop.
Clary went in and was there for five minutes. When she came out she had a large bouquet of flowers. Jace wondered where she was going with them. She started to walk. He wondered if she was walking toward the cemetery, but she turned away down another street before reaching it. As an after thought, he thought the flowers were to big and bushy to be for bringing to a cemetery. A few more blocks and he found himself in front of a house. Clary had gone into this house. Who did it belong to? He decided to peer into the window.
He crept up to the front window and when he looked in he saw Clary crying. The flowers were on the kitchen counter in the back. He scanned the room for other people and the whole scene looked foreign.
No one else was there and she was upset. He was worried, so he finally went to the front door. HE knocked and a moment later Clary opened the door.
"Hey, Jace." said Clary with a small smile.
"Are you alright?" asked Jace with concern in his eyes.
"Yeah, sure I'm fine." said Clary.
"Clary, you were crying, you are not fine." said Jace as he brought her into an embrace.
"I bought flowers." said Clary.
"And?" continued Jace.
"Hold me tight." said Clary.
"OK" said Jace.
"Want to come in?"asked Clary.
"Of course." said Jace.
Once they shut the door Clary turned to Jace.
"I bought flowers." repeated Clary.
"They are lovely." said Jace. Clary stepped into the distance between them, reached her hands to Jaces' face and kissed him with something more then passion to Jace. She was, in her own way, working some kind of demon out. She kissed him until he started to feel dizzy, disoriented, then she said.
"Let's go to bed." said Clary. Jace only nodded and followed Clary to walk up the stairs. At the bottom of the stairs he picked her up and carried her to the bedroom. She kissed his neck and face until they reached the bed and he placed her on it. She pulled him along with her and they fumbled to remove clothes without breaking their kiss. Jace still felt something else from Clary, something bothering her that she had not told him, but he figured now was not the time. He was going to give her all she asked for from him.
Should I continue? I haven't like the last couple of chap too much. I just can't seem to run through a whole idea. Sorry for anyone who liked this.
