Letters from the Shadow World (Mortal Instruments)

Parabatai

I wake up to Aline squealing excitedly.
"What in the angel's name is going on?" I grumble sitting up and rub my jaw which feels like it's been stuffed with a block of wood.
Aline holds up my family ring and says, "Yes! Yes! A million times yes!!!!"
"Oh my god! Give me that. Now!" I say grabbing the ring and broken chain from her hand.
"Jacey, I said yes. I mean isn't that the reason it was right next to my hand?" Aline asks confused.
"This isn't my ring. It's Clary's she must have... Aline I have to go, and for your information. We are not a couple, sorry. Bye." I say pulling on my boots and belt.
I then walk out of her room. I find Church sitting in front of the door as if waiting for me. He has a note attached to his collar. I take it and read it and it says, "We are all here. Clary, Izzy, Magnus, and I are in the training room. ~Alec"
"Thanks, Church." I say as I stroke behind the cats ears.
I stand, and walk to the training room. I pass a mirror and see my jaw bruised and a dark blue and black. 'Damn. I need a stele.' I think as I run a finger over my black eye, and down over my bruised jaw line.
I keep walking, and reach the training room a few minutes later. I walk in to find Isabelle and Clary training for their parabati oath later this afternoon.
"Oh shit. Clary I'm gonna take a break. Also I think you did a good job with as you have officially nicknamed him 'the little blonde bastard.'" Izzy says as she sits down on a bench.
"Do I have to break your nose this time? I refrained from doing it last night because I didn't want to have to deal with the blood. I'll do it now if you want, Blondie." Clary says as she grabs a rope and starts climbing.
"Alec, spar with me?" I ask not trusting myself to reply to Clary.
"Yeah, sure." He says wrapping his knuckles.
"Cat got your tongue, Herondale?" I hear Clary call from the rafters.
"Let's go, Alec." I say as we walk to a sparring circle.
"Oh, fine... Jace you idiot answer me before I purposefully break my back falling off these rafters." Clary snaps at me from above.
"You dare do that, Fairchild, and you'd kill me." I say me head snapping up to look at her as she does flips through the air.
"That would be the point don't you think, Little Blonde Bastard?" Clary asks innocently as she lands on a rafter.
"Whatever. Go, Alec." I say to Alec.
He lunges at me and I dodge his attack, rolling to the side. I lunge at him, and graze his shoulder...
We continue like this for several minutes with Clary over dramatically going 'Oooo' and 'Ahhhh', and Isabelle literally rolling on the floor laughing her little happy ass off.
"Enough! Clary Fairchild, I am tired of your torture. That is all you have been doing to me for days. I'm sorry, but I don't think what I did was that bad." I say finally fed up with all of this bullshit.
Clary drops from the rafter and lands inches from my face.
"You should have thought of that before you sided with your ex instead of your family and now ex-fiancé. You broke what you had, and this is what you get. A woman willing to torture you for hurting her. Deal with it. I don't give a damn anym-" I cut her off pulling her against me, my lips closing on hers.
I pin her to me, not letting her move. Then, I let go. Instead of pushing me away I'm nailed in the Crown Jewels, and fall to the ground holding myself. Then, she literally kicks me when I'm down. Kicking me hard in the stomach, knocking the air out of me.
"By the Angel, Clary. I kind of feel his pain you know. I need to sit down, and breathe." Alec groans as I hear Magnus soothing him, and then Simon coming into the training room.
"Damn! Who the hell got a hold of him?!" I hear Simon asks in shock.
"Me." I hear Clary say before I open my eyes to see her climbing a rope.
"You beat your fiancé to a pulp? Why?" Simon asks, obviously not caught up to date.
"Ex, my dear Simon, ex." Magnus explains.
"Oh, well come on, Jace. Trust me, she has nailed me in the nuts many a time." Simon says helping me to my feet, and over to the bench Alec is sitting on.
"You REALLY need to stop pissing her off, Jace." Alec groans still holding himself.
"Tell me about it." I agree taking in a deep breath.
"Okay. I don't care what I said early. Izzy we need a stele." Alec says to Isabelle, who produces a stele, and quickly puts an iratze on both of us, and applying two more on me to completely heal my jaw.
"Thanks. Now, to take care of the stubborn flame haired hot head." I say climbing the ropes up to the rafters.
"My friend patch you up?" Clary asks as she gingerly leaps from one rafter to another.
"Yes, my sister did." I say following her.
"Clary... Clary, just listen to me. I know I messed up. Aline and I used to date, yes, but I love you, Clary. I can't function right without you... I need you, Clary." I say as she keeps her back turned to me.
Clary turns to me, then, with tears streaming down her face and says, "You should have thought of that when you went in to Aline's room last night, when you called me out basically yelling to everyone that I've cried myself to sleep a lot, more than most people, you should have thought of that when you threatened your own parabati twice, when you chose an ex-girlfriend over us! You are an idiot, a bastard, lier, loser, you fucking bastard. You hurt me... you..."
I move across the rafters as she sinks down so she is sitting on the rafter. I come over to her, and she pushes off, falling.
"Clary!" I yell.
Isabelle moves first preparing to catch her, but Clary twists mid-fall, and lands on her feet. So instead Izzy hugs her.
I grab a rope, and go down.
"Jace, leave. Now." Isabelle threatens.
"What about..." I trail off as Isabelle says, "She will be fine with me. Now, leave. Oh, hey, Adele. Did you get food?"
I turn to see the girl from Pandemonium named Adele. She brings in food from Taki's as I walk out the door, and start pacing up and down corridors...
