Shadowhunters One Shots

I cant take it

A/N- it's still sad, but it's not sad malec, so that's a plus. Also, can we just take a minute to imagine clary calling izzy "baba" when shes sad. My cold heart cant take the cuteness.

Clary POV

I was on patrol when my phone rang. I didnt check to see who it was. I answered it quickly. "Hello," I said, drawing out my seraph blade. "C-Clary," a small voice said through the phone. It was my wife, izzy. "Izzy darling what's wrong," I said, stopping in the middle of the side walk. "I-I cant take it anymore, I-I went to visit Raphael," she said. A lump formed in my throat. "Izzy, please tell me you didnt-" I stopped myself before I could finish. I wanted to get home. I wanted to hug her and tell her everything would be alright. "Clary, I-I got his venom," she stuttered. My body froze for a minute. She relapsed? But she was doing so well. I didnt understand. "I'll be home soon, okay? You can tell me everything in a couple minutes," I said, drawing a portal rune in the palm of my hand. I could hear her take a deep breath through the phone. "Okay," she said and hung up. I stepped through the portal I had created and walked into our shared bedroom.

Izzy POV

I sat in the corner of the room sobbing my eyes out. I had failed. I was one year clean until today. "Isabelle what have you done? You married a Morgenstern. Shes valentines daughter. Remember when he killed jace? You disgust me isabelle, after all the despair hes put on our family you marry his daughter, absolutely ridiculous," my father had said to me a few minutes prior. I never wanted this to happen.

A couple minutes after I hung up the phone, clary came through a portal. She took one look at me and her eyes went from worried to sympathy. She sat beside me and hugged me. I started crying into her shoulder. I had come down from my high at this point and I was shaking and sweating like crazy. "I'm sorry clary," I said. "Dont be sorry, I know sometimes it gets hard and it gets difficult to control yourself," she said, stroking my hair. "But, you know the consequences and now you have to go through the withdrawal again and I have to get off work to look after you," she said. I sighed. "Extra time with me, I know, torture," she joked. I chuckled and started drifting off into sleep. "Are you tired, baba," she said. She always called me that when she was looking after me. It usually signifies that from that moment, shes not going to leave until I'm better. I nodded. She picked me up bridal style and carried me to the bed. I giggled as she put me down. She stripped me from my uncomfortable clothes and put some pajamas on me, light ones so I didnt sweat too much. She then got changed and climbed into the bed next to me. She never had to deal with my withdrawals, it always had been alec or simon. I warned her that I do sweat and shake violently but she said she didnt mind and she would do anything to look after me. She out her arms over my body protectively. "You can tell me everything in the morning," she mumbled before falling asleep. I fell asleep shortly afterwards.
