CHAPTER EIGHT

Jaces pov

Dear Shadowhunters

We want your turf and the red head, she was pretty when we ran her over

If you do not give us what we want, we will start a war

Verlac.

i couldnt stop reading it, they want our turf, they want Clary. I sighed and put my head in my hands that were on my knees

We were all at home, besides for Clary, and it was almost 4 in the morning, i couldnt sleep. I want Clary in my arms again

Where she belongs

i smiled as a memory came to me

Flashback

I chuckled as she rolled her eyes "Do you have to have such a big ego?" i smirked ar her, and brought her closer to me, so that her head was on my chest and a leg was thrown over me, since we were in my bed

she fit perfectly there

I put my lips next to her ear and whispered "Thats not the only thing i have that is big" i felt her shiver and laughed, she hit my shoulder

"Ass"

"You love me"

" Are you sure about that?"

"Positive, you wanna know how?"

"How Jace?" she said, with a roll of her eyes, i brought her lips up to mine, in a slow kiss

"Cause...your still in my bed" i smirked, she rolled her eyes again with a small smile, and kissed me again

End of flashback

I got up from from my bed and grabbed my coat and Keys. We had to leave earlier cause visiting hours were over, but thats not going to stop me from going

I want to, no need to see her. i need to make sure that she was ok, i need to make sure that the bodyguard is still there. He better be

I got in my car and sped off to the hospital

Clarys pov

I cant sleep!

I have been trying since they left, but i cant sleep. Its so frustrating! I just want sleep. I sighed, and tried to move but winced when i moved my leg a little. I cant wait to be better.

I tried to sleep again, and ao i closed my eyes, and wondered if i count in my head it would help me go to sleep faster

Nope, no help at all

I want out of this hospital, i want to be home right now, and calm down my family

If the Verlac gang is going to start a war, then i will give them me, if that will calm them down enough for my family to come up with a plan. I need to protect the kids, thats who they will go after first

"Cant sleep either" i jumped and looked at the door where Jace was, leaning against the door frame with a small smile on his face. I glared and looked out of the window

"Clary?" he sighed

"You should leave, visiting hours are over" i told him still not looking in his direction, he sighed again, and then started to move, i thought he was leaving, but thin i felt his hand go in mine, i jerked it away, and gasped in pain as i jerked my side

"Are you ok? Should i go get the doctor-"

"You dont have to pretend that you care anymore" i told him not looking at him, "No one else is here" i heard him make a weird noise so i looked hp af him

When i did, i seen hurt on his face, he has to right to look hurt though "Clary...what ever i did or say that night...i dont remember anything, no one will tell me, and i dont want to know-"

"You called me a ugly slut" i told him harshly "And now you are here, because what? your afraid you will loose your late night booty call? Im sure there is tons of girls that will like to fuck you, go find one, and get out" i was pissed, pissed that he didnt remember, i dont know why though

He sucked in a breath "You are a beautiful and amazing girl baby, and i am so sorry i said that to you i was pissed and jealous when i seen you and that guy kissing, i took some stuff from someone and the next thing i know, i am waking up in bed with a horrible headache" he nuzzled his head into my neck and i couldnt help but let out a relaxed sigh "I dont want anyone else, i want you" he whispered in my ear

i didnt look at him, but i did scoot over some in the bed, and he layed down with me and i looked at his chest, i dont remember him taking off his shirt

i put my head on his naked chest, not looking at him and i felt him sigh. We didnt say a word to eachother as he wrapped his arms around me, and we fell asleep together
