" If  you  don't  take  your  butt  back  to  bed ,   i  will  carry  you  there  myself .   "
"Jace, babe. I'm pregnant not immobile."
"I'm just trying to make sure you're extra careful. You have precious cargo after all."
He lay his hand on her ever so growing belly.
"I know. And I appreciate everything you do for us. But I am still a shadowhunter. I'm able to walk to the bedroom myself."
"I know. But you're due any day now."
She padded or more like waddled. Her way to their bedroom.
She sat down on the comfy mattress. Feeling relief on her aching back.
"What where you doing up so late anyway?"
"Well, your child decided to kick my small bladder. And then preceded to want a pickle."
"So I did just that."
He took her slippers off and eased her back into bed.
"Well can you blame him? He is a shadowhunter like his parents. So that means he's extra strong and..."
"Stubborn like his daddy?"
She smirked at him.
"Well I was going to say, he knows what he wants. And is determined to get it. Very strong-willed."
"Exactly. Like you." She caressed his cheek.
"With us bring its parents, I wouldn't expect less."
"Babe. You know there's a chance there's a she in there?"
"I will be happy no matter what we have. Boy or girl. Although, I would prefer a boy. Just for the sole purpose of not having to deal with her dating. Or liking boys."
"Awe, that's fo cute! It would be karma justice though. With all the broken-hearted
women you left in your path."
"So not funny."
She couldn't help but laugh.
"Okay. Relax. We won't even know for sure until I'm in labor."
"That does make me feel slightly better."
"Okay, now it's time to try and get some sleep."
He kissed her goodnight.
His arm resting over her belly.
Which is how he found himself sleeping lately.
She loved how protective he was.
Her fingers laced with his.
Sleep overtook her as she cuddled into her husband.
