Leave a review of your ideas, Thanks guy's xx
Jace was the first to speak, "Please let me explain it's not as simple as it looks it really isn't. " Jace was now at Clary's side, he pulled her into a hug. She hid her face in the kroock of his neck and her tears became more and more frequent. Maryce moved towards Clary's bed and sat down. "Not as simple as it looks? It's pretty obvious that she is pregnant and has been for quite a while" Clary broke away from Jace and sat down next to Maryce. Clary looked up into Mayces eyes. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean for this to happen I know you're disappointed but Jace is right it's much more complicated than it seems. Maryce I'm only just over a month pregnant." Clary's voice was calm and her tears had stopped she knew she couldn't hide any longer she needed to tell the truth no matter how bizarre it was.
"Explain yourselves! Clary I've had 3 children, You are definitely much further on than just a month pregnant." Maryce had lost her anger, her voice was calm and her face had gone much more relaxed but Jace and Clary both Knew she was disappointed. Clary looked at Jace who nodded his head and moved to sit next to her. "It's really confusing I can't understand it either but I'm only between one and two months pregnant. A image/vision appeared to both of us it was a baby developing from a small shape into a proper baby, we watched the features grow. when it went away I got the pain in my stomach and I passed out. When I woke up my baby had grown. my stomach was no longer a tiny bump. Magnus said that the baby has developed much faster than normal. He said the vision was a warning " As Clary looked at Maryce a single tear slipped down Clary's face .
"Clarissia that's impossible. You say you're under two months pregnant when did this happen or do I not want to know?" Maryce asked. Clary looked towards Jace for help she didn't know how to answer. Jace lifted his head up and spoke "The Demon realm before we found Sebastian." Jace looked up at his adoptive mother. "Of all the places to do that... You picked a demon relm? but I supposed there's been others too." Maryce looked towards Clary, she saw the tears streaming down Clary's face. "Clary..." Maryce couldn't finish her sentence. Clary threw her head in her hand and ran to the bathroom.
Jace looked up, " I'm really sorry, I didn't expect this to happen. Clary only found out a few days ago. She passed out and when Magnus looked at her he told her she was pregnant... She went to the doctors they said everything is okay but since then the baby... Grew." Jace's hands were shaking, Maryce gently took hold of Jaces hands and pulled him towards her and wrapped her arms around him. Maryce is the only mother figure Jace has ever had. "Don't worry Jace, we will get through this as a family." Maryce's voice was soft and full of concern. Jace looked in to her eyes. "Thank you Mum." Jace had never called Maryce mum before. she squeezed his hand and smiled, she felt her heart beat faster. Maryce was speechless she had never realised how much she truly loved Jace and wished that she was more than his adoptive mum.
A small voice came from the bathroom. "Jace can you grab me a towel and a clean shirt please." Clary had managed to be sick down her shirt, her eyes where saw from all the tears and all she wanted was a hug. Jace stood up and walked towards Clary's wardrobe, he grabbed a towel a fresh shirt and a small blanket, he gave them to Clary and returned to sit next to Maryce. After a few moments Clary padded back into the room with the blanket wrapped around her shoulders.
"Maryce...I..I understand that your mad, I really am sorry" Clary's words where muffled by her tears. Maryce stood up and pulled Clary into a hug "Clarrisia I'm not mad, just concerned, have you told your mother?" Clary shook her head she explained how Simon found out and Jace explained how he Had told Alec.
After listing Maryce asked "How did Issabelle find out ?" Clary shook her head "We don't know, she was fine with me when I left her room a few days ago but when I next saw her she just screamed at me. I don't understand why she's doing this. She followed me to the doctors she hit me and left me on the ground alone knowing im pregnant." Clary's looked at Jace. He said "She not being herself I know my sister she would never do these things, we need to find her. How was she with you?" Jace asked Maryce. She shook her head, "She seemed fine until she came in here then she changed.. Did she say where she went?." Maryce asked. They all looked at each other confused.
Jace spoke "No but I'm going to go find Alec, he and Magnus searched the library yesterday looking for answers about the baby." Jace lent down and kissed Clary's head before leaving the room.
Maryce and Clary sat in silence for a moment, Clary realised that she had never been alone with Maryce before. "Jace truly loves you Clary. As a child Jace was only focused on fighting evil but with you Jace is different, I watch the way he looks at you. Jace is strong and he never cries but when Issabelle brought me in here I saw the confused ten year old boy who just needed to be loved. Jace often seems like a superhero but sometimes he can't be everyone's hero he just needs to be his own" Maryce gripped Clary's hand. "He will always be by your side Clary and I know he will be a great father, even if it is earlier than expected." Clary smiled "I know he will."
"I wasn't ready to tell anyone. I wanted to wait a while so I could get my head around things but now I don't have a choice. " Clary put her head down and looked towards her stomach. She placed a hand on her baby bump and could feel movement. Clary's frown turned to a smile, this was the first time she had felt her baby move, tears ran down Clary's face but this time they were tears of joy. Clary took Maryce's hand and placed it on her stomach. "oh that's my baby " Clary breathed "it's the first time I've felt movement, That's my baby" she smiled. As Clary looked at Maryce she could see that Maryce's expression was a mirror of her own . "Maryce, That's your Grandson or Granddaughter."
Maryce looked at Clary "Clary I hadn't thought about it like that...I'm only Jace's adoptive mother." Clary met Maryce's eyes "You are Jace's mum and you will be a grandparent to this baby. " Maryce squeezed Clary's hand and the pair sat together smiling and crying tears of joy.
