Chapter 4
"Then the dreams began, and I began to believe that I didn't deserve you. That I didn't deserve to be happy and to find love. And after what happened tonight I-"
"Stop." She reached up and placed her hands on his chest, she could feel his heart racing underneath her finger tips. "Jace. What happened here tonight, I knew the whole time that it wasn't you that was hurting me, okay? I know you, and you are wonderful and good and you deserve to be happy and...I love you and I will always love you no matter what. So please, stop."
Jace took a deep breath and closed his eyes tightly shut. He leaned his head forward and pressed it against Clary's forhead, she then rapped her arms up and around his head, tangling her finger in his golden blonde hair, and wrapping her arms around his neck. Jace hands were at the small of her back and he pulled her more closely now, towards him. He leaned down and kissed her, his mouth was gentle and soft on hers. Clary closed her eyes and felt consumed by Jace. The world around her felt like it had all faded away and nothing else mattered but just her and Jace. He drew away from her and gave her a small smile. He ran his fingers through her hair and lean back down to kiss her tenderly on the lips. Clary felt am odd rush of feelings pass through her lips and into her whole body. Once Jace drew back she looked confused. She searched his eyes for answers but they reveled none to her. "The Clave, they're here." he said softly and let his hands slid down her body slowly until they found their resting place on her hips.
"We should go done stairs, my mom should be here." Clary said reaching up to one of his hands. His eyes began to change and he lowered his head, not looking at her for a second. Clary reached up and touched his check, "Jace?" she questioned him, some part of her was still very worried about him, something was still very off but for whatever reason she couldn't figure it out.
"I don't want to lose you. I'm sorry, I am so sorry Clary. I...." he inhaled sharply and his eyes watered some and Clary didn't understand what has happening at this very moment. "You won't lose me, ever. I am with you, I will always be with you Jace. I love you." Clary said. Jace all of a sudden wrapped his arms around her, hugging her tightly. After holding one another for a few seconds he stepped back and gently grabbed her hand and placed The Morgenstern ring into it. "Please take it."
Her eyes stared down at the cold metal ring in her hand and then she looked back up at him. "I wish, that I understood what it meant to you." she said softly as he held her hand in his. "I wore it for so long," he said. "Some parts of me is in it. I want you to have something of me forever." She looked back down at the ring and pulled it slowly from her hand and she dropped the chain over her head. There eyes locked for a moment and all Clary wanted to do was stay up her with him, to get lost in him. She sighed and removed her hand from his. "I'll be right back," she said. "Five minutes."
"Go on." he said quietly and she turned away from him and once she left him she was instantly cold again. She pressed the elevator button and turned around to see Jace watching her. He gave her a small smile. He then turned slowly and walked over towards the wall and looked over the edge. The doors slid closed and she found herself reaching up and grabbing hold of the ring around her neck and smiling. Images of Jace popped into her mind and she felt wonderful. She was in love with him completely and fully and he shared the same love for her as well.
Clary soon stood still as the doors began to open, she could see everyone standing around. Clary rushed passed a few unknown shadowhunters and straight towards where he mom, Luck and Simon stood.
But soon everything changed. Alec turned away from Isabelle and Magnus and held his chest. He felt an aching pain inside himself. Izzy noticed Alec and moved to stand before him. "Alec?" she question. He didn't meet her gaze. When quickly he fell to his knees. His whole body began to shake and he screamed out in pain. Clary turned around quickly and moved fast towards him and Izzy. Isabelle was on her knees, holding onto his shoulders. "Alec! What's wrong?!?" Isabelle screamed at her brother. He began to cry and he could barely get the words out but he did finally. "Jace-"
All the air in the room seem to disappear and Clary felt a sharp pain in her chest, fear flowed through her body instead of blood. "It's...Jace!" Alec screamed out and pulled Izzy into his chest as he cried. Clary hadn't even realized that she had already made her way towards the elevator and was pressing the button like a thousand times. Simon laid his hand on her shoulder and she turned to face him. A cry broke through the silence and Clary turned to see who yelled, it was Isabelle. She had made her way from Alec, who still remained on the floor in pain. She had walked passed Clary and Simon and stood by the doors. She held them wide open, her hands shaking a lot. She finally fell to her knees and cried so loudly. Many members of the clave rushed by Clary to see what had happened. Clary began to pull and push through towards Izzy, but she was pulled back by Simon who wrapped her into his chest.
"Don't look." was all he said and pressed her head into his chest. She gripped tightly onto the back of his t-shirt. Something horrible had just happened, she felt dead inside. She soon pushed herself away from Simon and ran towards Izzy. Simon reached out to grab her but he missed. Clary shoved her way through the crowd and then came to a dead stop. Isabelle turned around and stared up at Clary.
She began to walk slowly closer and shaking her head. As she came closer she saw what appeared to be a body on the ground but as she stood right behind Izzy she saw the golden blonde locks of hair mixed with crimson red. Clary gasped and fell to her knees. Time felt like it had all stop, everything slowed down and became completely silent. Isabelle now held Jace's head in her lap and Alec had moved next to his sister and fallen parabatia. Clary remained frozen. Her mother standing right behind her with her hand on Clary's shoulder and Simon sitting right next to her, holding her hands that where shaking like crazy. Soon everything began to grow dark and she allowed it to take her with it.
