Freddie and Glory made their way to the dance floor for their first dance. Charlotte stood on the sidelines watching them when Jace came up to her from behind wrapping his hands around her waist and pulling her close to him.

"Hey," Charlotte said, a smile creeping onto her lips.

Jace grazed her earlobe gently, "Hi, angel"

"They're just so perfect," she said watching Freddie and Glory swaying on the dance floor.

Jace intertwined his fingers with hers, "I'm sure people will say the same thing when you and I have our first dance at our wedding" he replied causing her to turn to him.

"Yeah, we need to talk about that Norman," she said seriously.

"Okayyy," he said as Charlotte pulled him out of the ballroom.

Once outside, she turned to face him, "You should stop saying things like that Jace. I'm not comfortable with that"

"What things angel?" He scrunched his eyebrows in confusion.

"Those things you say like us getting married and stuff. I'm not okay with that"

"Why?" He asked anger lacing in his tone.

"Cuz we're just teenagers and...."

"Angel, let me tell you this right now, no matter how old we are, you're MY wife and the mother of OUR children and nothing's gonna change that," he said with finality.

"But what if we want different things?" She argued.

"Like?" Jace said holding onto his slipping patience.

"Like what if I want to move back to Canada after high school?"

"Then I'll come with you"

"But......"

Jace held his hand up signaling her to stop. He looked her dead in the eye, "Charlotte Page, I'm not one to take no for an answer and frankly you should've already understood that. So, why don't you do both of us a favor and just accept the fact that you're stuck with me for life?"

Charlotte opened her mouth to respond but was interrupted by Xander, "Guys, what are you doing out here? Jace, Glory wants to talk to you" he informed them.

"Yeah, in a minute," Jace told Xander and turned to Charlotte, "Come on, Mrs. Norman," he said taking her hand. She sighed but obliged and followed him in.

They went to meet Glory, "What up sis?" Jace asked casually.

Just then his parents and Freddie joined them.

"So, Jace, we wanted to talk to you about you transferring back to New York for your junior year" Freddie began.

"You're moving back to New York?" Charlotte sounded shocked and hurt.

"Yeah, I've been meaning to tell you Angel but frankly it's not such a big deal cuz I'll be 18 in a few months and then I can move back to Pasadena and you and I can move in together" Jace revealed his plan casually.

"Move in?" Charlotte said.

"Together?" Jack and Lena said in unison.

"Yeah" Jace replied in a duh tone.

"Okay buddy, that's just ridiculous and we're not letting you do that" Freddie said firmly.

"Yes," Glory agreed.

"But how can I stay in New York when my Angel's in Pasadena?" Jace retorted.

"Which is why we have an announcement," Freddie said glancing sideways at Glory.

"Yeah, how do you feel about staying with us?" Glory said.

"Really!?" Jace exclaimed exhilarated. Glory smiled at her brother's reaction.

"Yup," Freddie replied chuckling.

"Wow, this is great. Thank you so much, guys" Jace gave his sister and brother-in-law bone-crushing hugs.

"But I'm gonna miss my baby" Lena hugged Jace tightly.

"Maa don't worry, we'll come back to New York soon" he assured her.

"We?" Jack raised his eyebrow inquiringly.

"Yeah, me and Char" Jace replied causing Charlotte to roll her eyes while the others just chuckled.

After that, they parted ways, "We should celebrate angel, how about a drink?" Jace suggested heading towards the open bar.

While Charlotte was waiting for Jace to come back, "Pretty face!"

Charlotte turned to see a guy walking towards her. He looked oddly familiar but she can't remember why.

"Do I know you?"

"Hey, it's me. Don't you remember, the other day, you and I at the club?" The guy said with a wide grin as the realization hit Charlotte and she began to panic.

"I didn't get your name on that day. Actually, I wanted to ask you out but...."

Charlotte's eyes opened wide in shock. He was gonna ask her out???

"Anyway, I'm Henry, Henry Hart" he spoke further holding out his hand.

She looked at his hand and then at him panic-stricken.

"So, pretty face, wanna go out with me?"

She gathered herself and spoke, "Look, Henry, I'm sorry for what happened the other day," she said seriously.

"Sorry?" He was baffled cuz he thought she was into him.

"Yeah, it was a mistake. I was angry at my bo......"

"Henry?" Jace said as he approached them causing Charlotte to become stiff as a board.

Oh boy! She thought as she began to shiver in fear.

"Hey man, how're you Jace" they gave each other bro hugs.

"I'm good Hen, I see you've already met my angel," Jace said happily.

"Your Angel?" Henry said looking at Charlotte who was now suddenly interested in her shoes, avoiding his gaze.

"Yeah, she's my girlfriend," Jace said wrapping his hand around Charlotte causing her to shift uneasily.

"You have a boyfriend pretty face?" His voice sounded hurt.

"Pretty face?" Jace asked confused.

Charlotte looked at Henry pleadingly mouthing "no" but Jace observed this.

"What is he talking about Angel?" He questioned her.

Charlotte continued to look down without replying.

"Henry?" Jace turned to his friend.

Henry huffed, "kay, sorry Jace but the thing is, pretty face and I met the other day at the club and I didn't know she's your girlfriend. I mean from the way she danced with me...."

"Wait, danced with you?" Anger was evident in Jace's voice. Charlotte didn't dare to look at him because she knew she screwed up big-time and didn't know how to get out of it.

"Charlotte?" Jace said sternly.

"Look at me Charlotte" Jace raised his voice causing Charlotte to look up at him.

"I.....I'm.....s.....so.....sorry" she hung her head apologetically.

Jace just shook his head disappointed.

"Jace, I'm sorry man, I....."

"Look, Henry, since you and I have been friends for a long time, I'm gonna tell you this only once. Charlotte is MINE and mine alone" Jace said firmly.

"I understand Jace, I'm sorry, I didn't...."

"It's okay Hen, it's not your mistake, you didn't know" Jace replied with a smile tightening his grip on Charlotte's waist causing her to squirm a little. She simply said a silent prayer to God to save her from her predicament.

"Kay, anyway, it's getting late, I think I'll go find my parents now. Night buddy" Henry said and left.

After he left, "Jace, I....."

"If you don't have a valid reason, I suggest you don't talk because that'll only get you into more trouble" Jace spoke through gritted teeth.

Charlotte fell silent instantly, looking down.

"Thought so," Jace said as he grabbed her hand taking her with him.

Jace then went to confront Katy.

"What were you thinking letting my girl dance with some guy Katy?" Jace demanded.

"Whoa, Whoa, Whoa, calm down there, buddy, you should be thanking me for at least stopping her from kissing him," Katy said as Charlotte facepalmed herself behind Jace.

"You kissed him?" Jace turned to Charlotte apoplectic.

"Hey, everything alright here?" Xander, Freddie, and Glory asked, joining them.

"No Xander, your girlfriend let Charlotte almost kiss another guy," Jace told him.

"Babe, why would you do that?" Xander asked his girl.

"Hey, in my defense, I was busy shooting the video of Glory getting a lap dance from that stripper wh...."

"Katy!" Charlotte and Glory shrieked. Katy caught herself realizing what she just said but it was already too late as all three guys were giving their girls deadly death stares.

"A stripper!?" Freddie questioned his wife who was desperately avoiding his gaze.

"Katherine?" Xander said turning to Katy.

"It's not our fault. It was Selena's idea" Charlotte blurted out.

Glory and Katy gave her death glares while the boys went to confront Selena.

**********************

"Hello boys, how can I help you?" Selena asked sipping her margarita.

"How can you do this Selly? You said you were only taking them for drinks" Freddie asked angrily.

"Yeah, a stripper!? Seriously Gomez?" Xander asked equally pissed.

"You promised there won't be any strippers" Freddie was fuming.

"Now I didn't promise you nothing Freddie, you said no strippers, and I said whatever" Selena winked at him.

"Are you for real Selena, you let my girl dance with some guy? She almost kissed him" Jace said fuming.

Selena rolled her eyes, "Do you even realize how annoyingly possessive you boys are?" She said and walked away.

The boys just looked at each other before going to join their girls.
