City Of Clace Chapter 25

If was absolutley beatiful. Jace had set out a red and white checkered picnic blanket with a picnic basket. All the plants seemed to be glowing. It was beatiful. The flowers were in full bloom. It smelled amazing. Everything about it was beatiful. Clary was itching to draw it all. She looked over at Jace and was about to say she was going to go get her sketchpad when he handed a pack of colored pencils to her and pointed to the picnic basket. She walked over to it and opened up the flaps. What Clary had thought would be food was instead art supplies. Her sketchpad, paints, brushes, oil pastels, crayons, makers, and anything Clary could imagine.

"Oh Jace! Thank you thank you thank you so much. I love you! "Clary squealed. She ran over to Jace and flung her body at him. He laughed and wrapped his arms around her, taking in her smell.

"Your welcome, Clary. "Jace whispered. He knew she would be excited, but he didn't know she would be this excited. "Come on, let's go sit down so you can draw. " Jace led her over to the blanket and set her down on his lap. She relaxed in his arms and began to run the pencil over the paper, capturing the beauty of the flowers.

About an hour later, Jace decided it was time. He quietly grabbed a little box from behind a plant where he had hidden it earlier that day. Gently, he slid Clary off of him and got down on one knee. Clary just stared at him, her mouth hanging open.

"Close your mouth, you'll catch flies. "Jace joked. Clary laughed. "Clary Adele Morgenstern Fray Fairchild, you have already made me the happiest man alive. You've saved my life more times than i can count. You've loved me unconditionally, even when you had every right to hate me. Will you do me one favor? Clary, will you marry me? "

By now, tears were falling down Clary's face, but she made no effort to wipe them away. A huge smile broke out on her face.

"Oh, of course Jace! A million times yes! " Clary threw her arms around Jace's neck and kissed him. They sat like that for a long time, until Jace said, "Do you want to retire to the bedroom? "

They left and quietly slipped into their room, not wanting to wake anyone.
"When are we going to tell everyone? "Clary asked.

"Tomorrow morning at breakfast maybe? "Jace answered. Clary laughed suddenly. "What? What's so funny? "

"I just realized that eventually people at school are going to find out we're engaged. What are they going to think? An 18 and a 19 year old getting married in high school. "Clary said, still laughing.

"They'll know how much we both love each other. "Jace whispered. He picked Clary up and threw her on the bed. Then he climbed on top of her and kissed her collarbone, then her neck, then her cheek, and finally her lips. Clary ripped Jace's shirt off and threw it on the floor. Shortly after, the rest of their clothes joined his shirt in a messy pile.

"I love you Jace Herondale. "Clary whispered against Jace's lips.

"But i love you even more Clary Herondale. "He whispered back. And they feel asleep like that in each others arms.
