Demons
The cracks of thunder rolled through the sky, I stopped listening and adoring Jace's rare laugh to look up at the now dark cloudy sky. I saw multiple flashes of lighting, illuminating the sky as the black clouds kept coming. I also registered that a rain droplet fell from the firmament and onto my cheek.
"Well," Jace said bringing me back to earth as he wiped the water off my face, "can't have you crying, you know I am yours and yours only."
"But I wasn't—"I started.
"That's okay, I won't tell anyone," Jace cut me off; "I have been told my face brings women to tears." Jace winked before he kept walking down the path.
I looked up at the sky uneasily before I followed him.
"Jace? Do you think we should go inside?" I asked hesitantly.
"Why?" Jace asked, completely oblivious to the approaching thunderstorm.
I pointed at the sky, Jace looked up curiously.
"Aww," Jace crooned wrapping an arm around my shoulder and rubbing my arm as if for warmth, "Is someone scared of a little storm? No need to worry, Jace is here; I've got you wrapped up nice and tight see? No one will hurt you."
I rolled my eyes, "I'm not scared of a storm, Jace. I just think that we should get inside before –"I was cut off as a large crack of lighting bolted out of the sky, closely followed by an enormously loud burst of thunder rolled the sky, and I couldn't help but jump.
Jace seemed to find this as his win, because I snuggled into Jace's chest after I jumped as he smirked down at me but nevertheless encircled me in his arms. The rain started to fall quickly now, drenching us from where we stood in New York City.
I lurched away from him when a vibrate in my pocket, however, it was not my phone because it kept vibrating. I reached into my pocket to see the Sensor on medium for demon activity. I felt Jace behind me, looking over my shoulder at the Sensor and I turned to him.
"Are you ready to have some fun?" Jace asked getting that mischievous, fearless, Jace look in his eye as he smiled evilly.
My heart started beating faster at his expression, "Okay." I nodded lamely.
Jace grabbed my hand and the Sensor, before we ran to track the demons. We had to run a mile or so out of the city after doing that we arrived at an edge of a cliff where three demons were knocking over trees and trying to find the city.
Jace and I jumped into action immediately, despite the cold rain and loud thunder. I had become somewhat of an expert at throwing knives so I used that to my advantage to kill one of them, Jace of course was good at everything but he had a sword and was slashing through the demon.
When we both turned to the third demon, Jace glanced at me.
"After you." He motioned me to hit it, for the second that I turned to look at him I saw that his eyes had turned black which was probably from the fighting and the amusement that it brought him.
I nodded silently before throwing a knife at the demons head; Jace came in and finished it off with two slashes of his sword to the demons chest.
"You look so beautiful right now." Jace whispered pinning me up against a nearby tree before his lips crashed down on mine.
During the middle of our kiss, the sound of rustling leaves made me pull away from Jace and look around. A demon was sitting in a tree, a demon I had never seen before, it had its mouth open in a snarl to reveal yellow sharp teeth and red liquid covering them then very quickly it made a movement as if to spit.
"Jace!" I screamed; Jace was in the middle of kissing my neck. Jace looked up at me and then turned around looking bored and annoyed.
He noticed the demon and pushed me away from him as the demon spit on the tree. The spit was yellow and red and when it hit the tree, the tree burn and then sizzled into nothing. Acid spit, are you serious?
I threw a knife at its neck area and it turned to me, spitting more acid spit at me I jumped out of the way as Jace cried my name in terror. Jace then pierced the demon in its head, then demon yelled in pain then turned to Jace raising its arm to knock Jace off his feet but Jace immediately jumped out of the way and pierced the demon again.
The demon kept attacking Jace and he kept jumping out of the way, I threw another knife at his head and it fell to the ground before getting smaller and smaller as it returned to its own dimension. I breathed a sigh of relief as I walked over to Jace.
"Are you okay?" I asked.
"Of course, are you?" He replied in concern, checking me over.
"Yes, I am." I nodded.
Jace hugged me tightly; I didn't expect the hug so I lost my balance and we started to roll down the long hill; getting covered in mud on the way. We both groaned in pain as Jace landed on top of me.
"Ouch." I groaned.
"Ouch is right, are you alright?" Jace asked pulling his head back to look at me as he placed an arm on either side of my head to hold his weight.
"Yeah, I think so." I replied moving around so that I was more comfortable.
"On the contrary, this is a fantastic position for the two of us." He whispered seductively he started to kiss my ear and I shivered but not out of pleasure but because I was frozen.
"It would be, if I hadn't landed in a puddle." I grumbled.
"Mmmm." Jace answered as he kissed his way from my ear, to my jaw line, and finally to my lips.
The feeling of Jace's lips on mine instantly warmed me. His love for me spoke to me through the kiss. As we kissed, I was trying in anyway, unsuccessfully I might add, to get myself out of the puddle and into some kind of warmth.
"Jace," I whispered which led his lips back to my ear, "not that I don't love these kisses, you know you on top of me after we saved each other from a demon, but-" Words failed me as his teeth bit my ear.
"But what?" He breathed, peppering kisses along my cheekbones.
"I am freezing baby." I said.
"Aww, baby." Jace pulled me up, into a sitting position, on his lap; his arms started to rub mine for warmth. "You are freezing, and soaking wet."
My teeth chattered and I shivered in response.
"Let's get you home." Jace nodded pulling me up bridal style into his arms and running home.
"Are we going back to the Institute?" I asked wrapping my around his neck.
"Is that were you would like to go?" Jace asked, slowing down only slightly because we had reached New York City again. I nodded; Jace nodded back running back to the Institute.
When we got back to the Institute, Jace ran me to his room; his bare unnaturally clean room. He set me down on the bed before rushing over to his dresser, pulling out one of his shirts while I rubbed my hands together trying to get feeling back in my blue fingertips.
"Here," Jace said handing me a black long sleeved shirt. "We need to get you out of those wet clothes." He whispered, locking eyes with me as he touched the hem of my soaked t-shirt, I nodded and he tore the shirt off; I was left in a white bra and blue jeans. Jace threw on his black shirt over my head, after he had stared at my chest for a few seconds, then he took off my shoes, socks, and finally my jeans.
We both blushed madly when he did, Jace and I loved each other but we hadn't had sex yet. However, he pulled his shirt down so that it covered to my mid thigh area.
"Thank you," I whispered stilling blushing pink.
"Of course." Jace nodded, taking his shirt off and laying us down on the bed. Jace pulled me under the covers and towards his warm chest as kept rubbing different areas of my body for warmth.
"Jace?" I asked after a long moment of silence.
"What? Do you need something else? Tell me what I can do, Clary." He begged staring down into my eyes.
I snuggled into him, "No, I'm getting better I just wanted to say I love you and thank you." I whispered talking to his bare muscled marked chest.
Jace gently removed one of his hands from rubbing to bring it under my chin and tilt my head up to look at him, "Clary, you don't have to thank me I would do anything for you and to protect you still, I love you," He whispered intensely meaning every word, I crashed my lips to his, "so much."
In response, I ran my tongue over his bottom lip and he let me into his mouth as our tongues started to fight for dominance. As usual, Jace's kiss was fire that started at my lips and engulfed me throughout my whole body.
Feeling adventurous, I let his lips go and kissed all over his face, neck, and bare chest. From his navel, I kissed a way up to his ear.
"I know a way we can heat up." I whispered in his ear.
"Clary," He moaned, "are you saying?"
"Yes. Jace, yes." I nodded, pulling back to look in his eyes.
"Clary…" Jace whispered, "We don't have to…"
"Jace, I want to," I stroked his cheeks, "I want you."
"Are you sure?" He asked; his gold eyes turning from gold to black and I was sure my green eyes looked the same way.
"Yes," I nodded, "I am positive. I love you."
Jace kissed me deeply, passionately, before he rolled us over so I was underneath him.
"Tell me if you want me to stop." Jace whispered, pulling back to look in my eyes.
I rolled my eyes, "Like that will happen." I winked at him playfully.
Jace smiled brightly before leaning down to kiss me again as he took off his black shirt from around my body.
I woke up from a soft cough followed by a whoosh of air against my bare chest. Confused, I brushed the blond hair away from my eyes and looked down; Clary was laying her head on my chest. Her red hair hung in every direction, her mouth parted, and her eyelids were shut behind those beautiful emerald green orbs. She coughed again.
"Clary..." I whispered rubbing her back lightly to wake her up, "Wake up my angel."
Her eyes fluttered open and she looked up at me, confusion and anger written on her face; she probably wanted me to let her sleep more. I smiled at her; her eyes were bloodshot and, by her breathing, she had a stuffy nose. My poor Clary had made herself sick.
"I'm sorry, Clary but I need to get up and get you some medicine." I explained quietly. Clary nodded before placing her head on a pillow.
I started to get up and realized that I was fully naked I smiled remembering our night of love making. I found my boxers on the carpet beside me and hurriedly pulled them on, then got out of bed to my dresser, and pulled on some black sweatpants.
After that, I walked out to the kitchen to the Institute's medicine cabinet and grabbed the medicine she needed, a thermometer, a bottle of water and after that I made my way back to my bedroom. I sat down beside her in the bed placing my supplies in front of me.
"Clary? Wake up, love; I need to give you this medicine." I whispered; stroking her wild red hair.
Clary lifted her head giving me an angry look and she groaned before a horrible set of coughs made her eyes water. My heart hurt looking at her as she groaned again letting her head fall back to the pillow.
"I know it hurts, Clary. Will you take this medicine? It will make you feel better." I lifted her head gently off the pillow. Clary looked from me to the medicine to the pillow before she sighed, sitting up in the bed the covers falling down from her and I saw her bare chest and I gasped; feeling my lust surge.
Clary noticed and looked down at herself before she pulled the covers over her chest and reached for the black long sleeved shirt and pulled it down over her head to cover herself. I sighed, she was so gorgeous.
"I'm sorry about that." Clary blushed looking away from me, when she talked I noticed that her voice was hoarse as well.
"Clary," I whispered cupping her cheek in my hand, "Don't apologize, Clary, you are beautiful." Clary smiled at my words and blushed a deeper red; I smiled at her before I held out a pill and the water bottle. Clary took the pill and thanked me.
I lifted up the thermometer, "Under your tongue." She nodded opening her mouth and I set the thermometer under her tongue. It beeped after a few seconds. "103.2, that is not good," I frowned, "We will have to keep you under 105."
Clary groaned again, "I hate feeling so vulnerable."
I pulled her into my lap, "I'm sorry, angel, but you know you are always protected with me here. I will protect you forever." I whispered in her ear, kissing her neck.
"Thank you," She said moving her neck so I could kiss it more I smiled against her and happily obliged to kiss her more, "I will do the same for you."
I turned her around quickly in my arms, "Thanks, but not today you won't. That pill will start working in a minute and you will sleep off this cold. You can thank me later, when I turn out to be correct." I gave her a smirk before moving my head forward to kiss her.
"Jace," she pulled away scolding, "I am going to get you sick."
"I don't care, being sick doesn't scare me…" I kissed her for emphasis, "and getting sick by you, from your kiss, would be considered an honor." I kissed her again, deeper. Clary started to pull away, but I trapped her by cupping her face gently in my hands.
"You don't have to keep trying to woo me, Jace." Clary said when I let her go.
I laughed once, "Will you ever humor me one swoon?"
Clary smiled before dramatically falling back onto the pillow.
"Worth it." I said getting up, ignoring the twitchy feeling I got when I saw our clothes thrown around the room, and walked to my dresser; getting out a pair of grey sweatpants. I walked back over to her, pulling back the covers.
"Jace!" She yelled pulling my shirt down to cover herself.
I smiled leaning down and placing my forehead against hers, "Baby, it is not like I haven't seen everything." I pulled away from her.
I found enjoyment of seeing Clary blush and racked her eyes over my body.
"Admiring the goods, love?" I asked, pulling the sweatpants up over her legs. I had to roll the waistband of them about ten times for me to actually see her feet, but I couldn't help but admire her in all of my clothes lying in my bed.
Suddenly, Clary yawned and I smiled at her.
"Sleep, baby, you will be better when you wake up." I whispered pulling the covers back up to her chin.
Clary seemed nervous, "Jace?" She asked hesitantly yawning again and letting her eyes droop.
"Yes?" I replied; picking up the medicine, water bottle, and thermometer and placing them neatly on my beside table. I could tell Clary was fighting an eye-roll.
"Will you… will you lay with me as I fall asleep?" She asked before I could respond, she continued, "It's just that when we sleep together all of the nightmares go away and I guess I need a good sleep to get this cold away right? You know what never mind I can-"I placed a finger to her lips to stop her explanation.
"Clary, of course I will lay with you, I will lay with you all day if I have to." I replied getting back into bed beside her.
"Thank you," She whispered snuggling against me then her eyes filled with terror.
"What is it? What's wrong?" I asked hugging her.
"My mom and Luke. I need to call them." She tried to find her cell-phone.
"Clary stop," I whispered, "I texted her after you went to sleep last night and I will text her in a few minutes after you fall asleep… love, you need to rest."
Clary nodded slowly then sank her head back on the pillow as she found my hand and we snuggled up together.
Clary opened her eyes heavily and before I could scold her she whispered, "I love you Jace. Thank you for being my doctor." Then her eyes closed again as her breathing evened out.
"I would do anything for you Clary. Anything. I belong to you. I love you, Clary." I whispered kissing her unconscious lips.
