I have been waiting for this day my entire life, every since I was a kid it was all I dreamed about. And now that it is here it just feels so surreal. I cant wait for my baby brother to be born. Sebastian isnt my brother even if he is by blood I will never claim him especially after what he almost did to me. But I know that this little boy will be different because he has my mom and luke to look after him. Also a big sister that wont let any harm happen to him. I am so excited and nervous, I cant stop my hands from shaking.

I am pulled out of my thoughts by Jace hands tightening on mine, bringing me back to reality. I give him a big grin.

" I cant believe he is going to be here so-" I am cut off by my moms screams. I dont like hearing her in pain but I know that luke is there with her and magnus has delivered plenty babies so that takes my worries away.

Jace pulls me into him chest " he will be here soon" " I know I'm so excited to hold him" he grins "I know you u are"

Everyone is waiting with us anxiously for the baby to be born, since the baby is being born at the institute, mom and luke will have to stay here for a while before they will be free to go. I am totally fine with that, that means more time to see the baby. Although I know I will visit all the time even more than I do normally. Jace and i would go to dinners at my mom and Luke's once or twice a week at least.

The sound of a baby crying interrupts my thoughts. Everyone in the rooms heads whip towards the door. If the wait wasnt agonizing before it sure as hell is now. I cant seem to keep myself still

When the door opens and luke opens the door with the biggest grin on his face. I can feel the tears well in my eyes I stand taking jace with since our hands  are still connected.

"As of 6:47 pm on November 13th baby Jackson harrison garrowway weighing 8 lbs 4oz a total of 24 inches long he is a healthy baby boy, clary you can come see him if you would like." Luke announces

"Can jace come too" I ask, luke smiles and says "ofcourse" I pull jace with me it seems like he is walking slow like he is nervous, I glance at him and squeeze his hand. Letting him know that I am here, we get into the room, my mom is holding the baby wrapped in a blue blanket with a huge smile on her face.

She looks at us beckoning us over with her head. Jace and I each sit in a seat beside my mom and luke. "Would you like to hold him?" Mom asked me, I hold my hands out immediately " yes yes yes I do" i almost shout , i hear jace chuckle besides me, at my excitment. I take him into my arms and move the blanket from his face.

He had dark red hair like me but with bright eyes from luke, he is just the cutest. When I touch his cheek he smiles, i cant stop smiling.

Watching clary hold the baby makes my heart flinch just thinking about what our future looks like and what it will be. Seeing clary hold jackson, makes me want that with her, I am scared as hell for sure but I love the smiles she has on her face. Clarys wants a family to have of her own, I never once thought about wanting a family of my own until I had met clary. She put my world in a whole new lens and I w- my thoughts are interrupted by Jocelyn

" jace do you want to hold him after clary?" I look at her a little surprised, I wasnt expecting her to ask me.

" umm I d- I dont know ho-" she just smiles and says " that's okay clary can help you" she says, over the last few months Jocelyn has really warmed up to me, but I didnt think that she was this warmed up to me. I just smile and nod in reply.

"Hold your arms out jace, and when i hand him to you you have to watch his head it's very sensitive...okay are you ready" clary tells me i take a deep breath and nod. She hands me the baby and I look down at him and he opens his eyes and looks at me with a big grin,  I smile, I move my hand a little and little Jackson grips my finger in a strong grip, I let out a chuckle, then look back up to clary, and I dont think I have ever seem her smile so hard, she rests her head on my should and just stares at her little brother.

After a while magnus tells us the baby and Jocelyn need some rest, we leave the room, when we walk out everyone is asking quiestions.

" magnus said that they need some rest so everyone can visit layer" they all nod okay in understanding.

Maryse announces " well dinner is done let's all eat and get to bed we can all visit in the morning" everyone nods and head to the kitchen to eat the chicken parmesan that was made.

Jace and I get to our room and lay down in bed, but I just cant seem to sleep.
Jace sits up taking me with him, sit up and look at him confused, and touch his arm, giving him time cause I could tell there was something on his mind. " seeing you hold that baby clary... i dont quite know how to describe it..I just..." "Jac-" " let me get this out please... I never grew up wanting a family I didnt have the best upbringing and it was just something that I didnt want...because i dont want to ruin someone that depends on me, but seeing you today, I want a family with you, obviously now is too soon but i need you to know that i do want this, i want to marry you and have our own place with our kids running around, I want it all with you, i love you so much" jace eyes are watering as he finished and I have tears streaming down my face.

I jump into his arm and hold him tight " jace that's all I want, that's all I ever wanted, there is no one else that I want to marry or to be the father of my children, i love you so damn much" jace lays back with me in his arms and sleep just seems to pull me in, and i fall asleep with a smile on my face, and in the arms of the man i love the most.
