Pounding.
That was the simple word that described the way my head was currently feeling.

I couldn't exactly remember what had happened, or how I'd ended up like this, nor did I try to remember just yet, because the throbbing pain in my head was advising me to do otherwise.

I slowly sat up and opened my eyes, letting them adjust to the small amount of light that poured through the open window.

I rubbed my eyes and blinked a few times, staring around the room in confusion. Of course I recognised mine and Jace's room, but how did I get up here in the first place?

I pulled the covers back and inched closer towards the edge of the bed, my legs dangling over the side whilst I sat.

I slowly got up and stretched, hand placed securely on my stomach. I made my way over towards the window, letting the cool breeze hit me.

Everything was slowly coming back, the last thing I managed to remember was falling into Jace's arms, and after that, nothing came to mind.

I knew for a fact that it was Magnus' doing, which only made me more frustrated. I was worried sick over the danger that my child might face, and it hadn't even been brought into the world yet.

I could rack my brain all I wanted to try and figure out who was behind all of this mess, but no one came to mind.

The breeze suddenly picked up, so I reached up towards the latch and pulled the window shut. Jace must've opened it when he brought me up..

I paced around the room a while longer, concentrating on trying to figure out this whole mess.

"Clary..you're awake." The voice startled me slightly, but I didn't show it. I simply turned around, watching as Jace entered the room.

"I'm sorry about..you know, what Magnus did." He sighed, pulling me into his arms as soon as he was close enough.

I simply smiled, face buried into his chest whilst his arms held me securely.

"Don't worry, he was only trying to help, I get that. I feel oddly calm, I don't know why." I chuckled confusedly, pulling away in order to look up at Jace.

"Magnus said that the stuff might have some side effects, I'm guessing that's why you aren't storming down the stairs right now." He shrugged, making me chuckle slightly whilst I shook my head.

"What's going to happen, Jace? What if we can't figure this out?" I questioned quietly, gaze falling down to the floor.

"We always find a way, Clary. We will figure this out, find out whoever is behind all this, and I'll kill the person myself, simply for trying to cause my family harm." Jace spoke up, whilst I nodded slowly, sighing as I laid my head against his chest once again.

We stayed there for a while, simply enjoying each others company, which we hadn't done for quite a long time.

"Cmon, let's head down." I stated, pulling away from Jace's embrace whilst I took ahold of his hand, heading towards the door and down the stairs.

"I'm sorry for knocking you out with chemicals." Magnus blurted out the minute we walked through the door, causing various chuckles to fill the room.
