TMI: Love and A Broken Heart.

Chapter 6.

JACE'S P.O.V: There was a knock at the door, it was faint, but it was enough to wake me. At first I thought I was just imagining it but then it happened again. After hearing it, there was no hesitation, I jumped out of bed and raced to the door, I couldn't pull open fast enough. It was dark, but I knew it was her, I reach out into the darkness and grasp her wrist, pulling her close into me, a feeling that has been so foreign to me for days now. I stroked her soft red hair, down to her face, it was damp. I pull her closer into my chest, her smell, her touch, it's like time hasn't past. I could stand holding her for centuries but at that thought, Clary pulls out of our embrace and walks into the privacy of my room.

We sit for what feels like an eternity before either of us speak. There were so many things that I wanted to say, yet I was unable to think of what to say; for once, I was out of words. It wasn't soon after that Clary spoke, "Jace, you know I didn't intentionally hurt you, right?". Of course I knew that, but that still leaves me to question. "Then why did you leave, Clary? You had to so worried for you; for you both." Clary seemed to flinch at the mention of our baby. "Are you okay about the whole 'baby' thing? You need to talk to me Clary." The sudden forwardness of my request made her turn away from me and the faint sounds of her weeping filled the silent room. I wanted to comfort her, but would she accept my support? I slowly slide my way to the right side of the bed where Clary was sitting. I extend my arm to place it on her shoulder; there is nothing more that I want in the world at the moment is to hold my girl, and never let her go. I pull Clary close into my chest, and she didn't resist my gesture. Her body entwines perfectly into mine and I hold her as she cries. It pains me to see my angel in pain; especially over something like our child. 

CLARY'S P.O.V: I can't remember exactly when I fell asleep, but there is nowhere else in the world where I want to be and who I want to be with. Just looking at him makes me feel that maybe this whole family thing isn't such a bad thing. The reality that I am carrying a little human; a little piece of Jace inside of me. All of a sudden I feel a hand wrap around my waist and pull me in close to his body. "How long have you been awake Princess?" Jace plants a delicate kiss on my forehead. "Not long but we are starving." his face light up instantly at the mention of 'we'. Jace rolls me over on top of him and he holds me tight. 

"I love you Clary."

"I love you too."
