Nephilim Love

Chapter 9

Jace

I went to work with a happy heart that I finally was going to make Clary my wife like I was planning to do months ago. All I had left was to find the perfect spot and time to do this. I decided to take her to Central Park to her favorite spot and do it there. I just can not wait until tomorrow. After a long shift at work, I walked home to find Clary sitting on the couch with her sketchbook on her lap. She looks so beautiful with the special glow of pregnancy. I went to her, swept her up into my arms, and kissed her passionately."

"What was that about?"

"Nothing, I just really missed you, that's all. How about we go to Central Park to your favorite spot and spend the day together?"

"What about school and your work?"

"I arranged to take off and one day of missing school is not going to hurt."

"Sure, it sounds really great!"

"So, what did you do today?

"Just did some shopping. If you are hungry, I can make you a sandwich."

"No, I am just hungry for you, babe!"

"You know that I am pregnant, right? You are really getting me exhausted with all this lovemaking."

"I have not once heard you complain. You mean to tell me that you do not want this?"

"Yes, I do want you, Jace, always."

Clary

Jace is looking at me like I am something good to eat. Then he acts so cockily asking me if I do not want him.  I will never stop wanting him. I moved closer to him and kissed him. He pulled me as close as we can get and deepened the kiss. I feel like there is something more to Jace than what he is telling me, but I will not ask him. We shut the lights off and went to our bedroom where we lost each other to our love and passion until we arrived at our most powerful bliss than ever. We held each other until we drifted off to sleep. When I woke up, Jace was already up and in the shower. I laid there and strong memories hit me of the night I met him in front of Pandemonium. All I saw was this tall, gorgeous blond with mesmerizing blue eyes and a body that I wanted right then and there. That angelic smile that he gave me when someone called his name and he turned towards the club and runs away. I never thought that I would end up with him as my boyfriend and the father of my baby. Jace walks out of the bathroom wrapped in just a towel with his hair dripping wet. He looks so good and angelic when he smiles at me. 

"Good morning, beautiful. Did you sleep well?"

"Good morning. Yes, now that I have you by my side."

"Go ahead and get ready. I am taking you out to breakfast and then Central Park."

"Sure, I will be ready in twenty minutes."

Jace

Clary walked into the bathroom to shower. I got dressed and picked up the ring to look at it again. I can't wait to see her face! I just hope that it is not too soon for this but this may help with her memories. She came out ready to go and we went and had some breakfast and then walked to central park. We walked around for a while and then went to her favorite spot. I was nervous but was resolved to go through with this. When we were settled, I asked her to stand for a minute while I got down on one knee. She looked totally confused at what I was doing but stood quiet.

"Clary, for the longest time I thought that I had to be perfect. The perfect son, the perfect soldier. I thought that this would get me closer to my family, but then you came and destroyed all that."

"I am so sorry."

"Do not be. You taught me so many things and I was able to express my feelings. When Alec and Magnus got married, I envied them because I wanted that, what they shared. I was ready but the angels were against me. Today I am ready. Clary Fairchild. I have loved you since the first night we met and I will love you until the day I die and if there is life after this, I will love you then too. Will you please marry me?"
