Sudden Changes

13- Infirmary

Clary's P.O.V (Next Morning)

My eyes were in a daze and I shuffed in the bed. I then noticed a strong pair of arms on my waist. I crane my neck back and see Jace sleeping.

His features are more loose and this is the soft and caring boy I know. He looks younger in his sleep. I smile knowing behind a cocky bastard is the real Jace.

The sun shined into the room and I begin squirming to get up. I slowly try to sit up without waking Jace, but then his arms wrap tighter around my waist. He pulls me towards him until my back is pressed up to his chest.

"Jace, let me go. It's morning." I whispered at him. He moans and tightens his trip while putting his face in my hair.

I then playfully slap his shoulder, "You're so lazy. At least let me get up. I'll wake you up later." I chuckled.

Jace groans, "I'm not a morning person and why are you in such a rush?" I turn around to face him and laughed.

He really isn't a morning person. His hair is disheveled and messy. His eyes look worn out, his face is sulking, and is trying to keep his eyes open.

I try pushing away from his chest, but it didn't work. My cheek now rested on his collarbone. He tightens his grip and I can tell he's grinning.

I sigh, "What's it gonna cost for you to let me up?" I raise an eye brow at him and his eyes shot up.

"There are many things I'd like," he grins and I smack his shoulder making his chest vibrate. "But maybe a kiss will do." he says starring at me.

I smirk, "Fine. One kiss." He smiles and leans into me. His lips were close to mine, but then I leaned up to kiss his cheek. This took him by surprise and that's when I pushed away from his grasp.

I rolled off the bed and stood up. I smirk at myself and look at Jace. I laugh. His face was full of shock and disappointment. He was still resting on his elbows and watched me.

"Now that I'm up I'm going to my room and then train. Later." I said putting my hair in a ponytail.

Jace then got up and grabbed my wrist. "Oh no you don't. I haven't gotten my kiss." he says standing in front of me. I reach for the doorknob.

I lean up and brush his ear. "You never said what type of kiss." I whispered in his ear. He let out a small moan and I took that to my advantage. I smiled and walked out the room leaving him there.

I smile to myself feeling proud. I have figured out Jace's weakness and I'll use it to my advantage.

I was walking towards my room which was about 2 doors over and then noticed that David's door was slightly open. I walked across to the other side of the room and slowly pushed the door more.

I stood at the door. "David? Are you in here?" Nothing. I asked again, but nothing. I walked in and David's bed was neatly made. His shirt was on the bed and also his shoes.

He didn't sleep. I saw the bathroom and opened it. I gasped at the sight. David was in a heap on the floor. His face was full of sweat and his neck had a small cut with blood. His arm was cut and bleeding. He was only in his jeans.

I walked up to him and touched him. No. I shake my head from the thoughts. He's not dead. He's not dead. I was on top of him looking at his wounds. I put my head on his chest and hear a slight thrumming. He was breathing.

I put his head on my lap. He won't stop bleeding. I felt tears well my eyes, but I didn't let them fall. I'm stronger than this.

I took out my steel and quickly drew a portal rune. I dragged David's body with me and into the infirmary. Then he was on the bed. I quickly teleported to Magnus' location. His flat. I grabbed his collar and quickly took him with me into the infirmary.
