Fire message

5: jace

Shit.

Clary led me down to a room and sat on a couch.

She looked me in the eye with her famous death stare- that only I knew.

"Well. I'm guessing you came here to explain why you cheated on me. Well. I have to say I was pretty pathetic. At least I didn't catch you having you d-"

I covered her mouth. I could finally explain.

"Well," I began. "Stop talking so I can talk."

She glared at me as I opened my mouth again.

"Well, I had lunch at taki's. I had ordered food from kaelie. She looked pretty happy to see me alone. I got my food but she drugged it so I thought she was you."

I watched clary. She had a hard expression on her face but her eyes were shining.

"Anyways. She came with me home and I didn't make her leave. Because I thought she was you. She followed me to my room and basically. Yeah. She made me do that but. Don't worry. Protection."

I never took my eyes off clary while I was talking. She just stared at me for a long time before talking.

"And how do I know you aren't lying. It looks like you got that down pretty well and didn't cry or anything. And it doesn't look sincere." clary told me.

I was shocked.

I told her the truth. Well. I do get why she did that.

I wish she was yelling at me or something.

"And why did you go there without me! Where did you get 'protection!' Jace, I won't come and forgive you just. Like. This. You broke me heart. I may have heard little things then but that doesn't mean nothing happened. Because something happened.

I mean.

You DID IT with kaelie!

Would you hand done it with me at the time!"

I got scared. Damn she was hot when she was like this.

"Yeah. Don't think I don't know who the kids father is. He has my eyes. My nose. My chin. He has strawberry-gold hair! clary!"

I sighed.

"Would you be able to forgive me. In anyway possible?"

She looked at me. I know this is all stupid and stuff. I couldn't stop, though.

"Maybe." She said. "Maybe, jace. But jace herondale, I will not forgive you just like that. But to earn trust, you have to help me with our kid. But you're not sleeping in my room."

I grinned.

"You are staying in the guest room. There's two don't worry. You have the one closest to Henry's. I do too, though. You know. He's my kid and all. And I have to take care of him through the night, too."

Clary was in deep thought, though. I'm just praying that I won't mess up.

"Now, who should get the other guest room and who's getting the couch?"
