30 Engagement Party

(Clary's Pov)

I slowly open my eyes. Slowly getting up, no one around. I was in the hall of the institute. The hall was flipped, all the room doors were flipped over to the right side. I rub my head, I have no idea what is happening. Noticing that a few things on the small tables are missing. As I continue walking farther, it starts to seem like there is no end. What the hell is happening? Why is everything so weird? I pick up my pace, running down the hall. Eventually, I start to give up because I have no clue why everything is messed up. Where is everyone?

As I am walking back, I hear footsteps. I quickly turn around to find Jace standing there, staring at me. I quickly ran towards him, typing to hug him. But before we touch, all I feel is pain running through my body. Slowly looking down to find a dagger in my gut. My breathing comes to a stop. My hands slowly go into my stomach, grabbing the dagger. Pulling on it a bit, but that only made it hurt more. When I pulled my hands away, they were covered in blood.

Slowly lifting my head, to see Jace gone. But in his place was this tall, muscular man. His cheekbones defined, with his carrot, red hair at the top. Jonathan! But he was dead? I turn around to try to run, but Valentine appears in front of me. Grabbing my head, covering my mouth from my scream. Darkness appears as Jonathan blindfolds me, and gagging me. Then I feel myself getting lifted. Screaming at the top of my voice, trying to get anyone to help.

"Clary! Clary! Honey wake up," I heard a voice speaking. Slowly opening my eyes to see Jace hovering over me. He looked very concerned.

"W - Where am I? What happened?" I asked.

"You were having a nightmare. Are you okay? Do you want to talk about it?" Jace asks.

"It was Jonathan and Valentine, I just have this gut feeling that they aren't gone for good," I say

"Clary, they are gone for good. I won't let anyone hurt the people I love." Jace says, bringing me into his arms. Quickly wrapping my arms around him, loving the feeling of his skin on mine. I feel Jace gently kiss my head and start to rock us back and forth. But before I could fall back asleep, Izzy barges in. I feel Jace tense up, and that causes me to look up at him. His face, eyebrows are arched, making wrinkles in the middle of his forehead. His eyes had a fire burning through them along with his mouth in a pout. We slowly loosen our grip on each other as Isabelle comes closer.

"I don't know if you can't see, but we were in the middle of something," Jace says.

"Yeah, I don't care. I need you, Clary," Izzy speaks. Jace put his hands on my head, causing me to turn my head to look at him. He asked me if I was okay to go with her, I nodded my head and he got up with me. Still holding my hand and keeping me near.

"Wait, why did you need me?" I ask.

"I called Magnus, he is on his way. You are going to have your first doctor appointment." She says excitedly.

A smile appears on my face, as I look down. Touching my stomach with the hand Jace isn't holding. Next thing I knew I started skipping, trying to get there faster. Dragging Jace to run with me and by the time we got there, Magnus was standing outside the door. I let go of Jace's hand and ran up to Magnus, jumping into a really big hug.

"Hey biscuit," Magnus says.

"Hey Mags," I say. He puts me down and touches my stomach.

"I still can not believe that you're pregnant. But are you sure you want it to be his and that you want to be this man whores wife?" Magnus teases.

"Of course, and he's not a man whore anymore, I made sure of that," I say, teasing back.

Both of us turn around and look at him, just to see him rolling his eyes. This makes me laugh. Magnus steps out of the way and opens the door. I enter the room, Jace is following behind. Magnus comes in and closes the door.

"Get on the table and pull up your shirt," Magnus spoke as he got ready.

I slowly got on the table lifting my stomach. You could see a small little bump that was starting to form. I look at Jace and start blushing. Jace smiles and leans down, kissing my head. Magnus starts to use his magic on my stomach and his face becomes concerned.

"What's wrong Magnus?"I asked, worried.

"Your pregnancy seems to be pretty far along for the beginning?" He says, confused.

"What do you mean?" I ask.

"You said you were 4 days late right?" He asks. I look up at Jace and then back at Magnus.

"Yeah, that's right, why?" I ask.

"Well, your baby already has most of their organs developed," Magnus says.

"What? That is not possible?" Jace asks.

"Yeah, no way, I barely have a bump," I say.

"You and Jace have extra angel blood, which means your baby will too. The average shadowhunter has 50% angel blood, you and Jace have 70% angel blood. This means your baby will have around 80-90% angel blood. Your pregnancy is going to be faster than the average pregnancy, around 3-2 months you will give birth." Magnus spoke.

"Oh my god Jace, are you sure you're ready for this?" I ask.

"Baby, of course. Don't ever doubt that, I don't care how soon you will give birth. I love you and this baby." Jace says. I smile and pull his face down, kissing him.

"Besides that, everything else is completely normal," Magnus said, stopping his magic.

I covered my stomach back up, then got up and ran out of the room. Immediately going to Jace's and I's place. Running up the stairs of the greenhouse, collapsing at the top. Tears are pouring out of my eyes. I am so scared. What if I'm a horrible mother? Oh my god, what if I become like Valentine. Suddenly I heard the door open and close. I suck up my tears and quietly inhale.

"Clary! Are you here?" Jace asks. I stayed completely still and quiet, hoping he wouldn't find me. I just wanted to be alone. But of course, he heard me and immediately rushed to me.

"Go away, Jace. I just want to be alone!" I said, looking away from me. Next thing I knew I felt his hand under my chin. Pulling my head up to look at him. He takes his thumb and wipes my tears away.

"What's wrong?" He asks.

"What if I'm a horrible mother? What if I become Valentine?" I ask.

"Clary, Honey, that's not possible. You are sweet, kind, incredibly beautiful, you are so special. There is no way you will become Valentine. Take my word for it," Jace spoke. Jace then gently takes his hand and caresses my cheek. Leaving it there, slowly pulling me closer. Slowly leaning in, craving each other's lips on each other. Slowly pressing our lips together, pouring all my love into this kiss. Gently pulling away, and looking into each other's eyes.

"Are you sure about that?" I ask.

"Completely. I trust you with mine and our baby's life." Jace says. My cheeks start to redden. He pulls away and stands up pulling me with him. Making our way down the stairs and into the kitchen.

"Hey, are you okay?" Alec asks. As he sees us walking back down.

"Yeah, just some butterflies about motherhood," I say.

Alec just nods his head. Alec and I have never been close, he was always concerned that I was working for Valentine and Jonathan. But once I killed them, more than once. He was convinced that I was on their side. Alec slowly came over to me, pulling me into a hug. It was very firm and it showed that he did care about me. His head was pressed up against mine, and the hug didn't last long.

When we finally let go, Jace pulls me back to him. Izzy soon comes down and goes straight to us. She explained to me how she had planned for us to have an engagement party later tonight. I told her how I don't have anything to wear. She immediately explained how she wanted us to go shopping. I groan and immediately regret asking. Izzy then grabs my hand and drags me away. I look at Jace and he just starts chuckling at my expression.

Not long after we left home, we arrived at the mall. Izzy immediately starts dragging me to a million different stores. Each store we end up leaving, we come out with 3 extra bags than the last. We continued to shop for the next few hours before Izzy finally let us sit down for some food.

"Hey, are you excited? You know about getting married and having a baby?" Izzy asks as we grab some food.

"Yeah, I cannot wait. Jace told me he had a dream about us being married and having a baby girl. Ever since then it has been like a dream." I say, taking a bite out of my food.

"I swear to god you guys are made for each other. It was like the angels knew you would be great together. You two are soulmates." Izzy spoke. I blush at this and think about how she could be right.

"You think that?" I ask.

"Yeah of course. Everyone does, there's no doubt about it." She said, with a smirk on her face.

"I just can't figure out when to have the wedding before the baby is born? And I don't want my stomach big at the wedding." I say.

"Well the baby is born in 2 months, so why don't we have the wedding about 3 weeks from here. That way you'll have a bump, but it would be small. And I will be able to have the planning fine by then."Izzy says.

"Izzy you are a genius!" I exclaim. Getting up, rushing over to her, and made her stand up to hug me. With a giant smile on my face. Not long after we eat, we decide it's time to go home. The party starts at 10:00 pm and right now the time is 7:30 pm. Jumping into my car and racing home, so we can get ready.

. . .

Once we get home, Izzy drags me upstairs without the chance of saying hello to Jace. She said that we didn't have time, so we had to get straight to work on our looks. Izzy bought this dark purple dress for her. It was strapless and went down to the middle of her thighs. It was skin tight and showed every one of her curves. And we all know that she has a ton of them. But I, on the other hand, don't have very many.

For me, I got a black silk romper, with red velvet fabric. It had spaghetti straps as the sleeves, the front of it showed a good view of my chest. The romper ends right under my ass and Izzy had me put on 4-inch black strappy heels. The romper shows my somewhat flat pregnant belly. I was a little uncomfortable and wasn't sure I should wear it considering the circumstances. Izzy convinced me, saying Jace's reaction would be amazing. She's not wrong, he will be so shocked.

I quickly put on the romper and Izzy changed into her dress. She sits me down on the chair and gets to work on my makeup. She gave me a sparkly black eye look along with some red lip gloss. I told her I wanted my hair to stay down so she decided to grab her flat iron and started my hair.

-2 hours later-

We were finally done and the party started in 10 minutes. I get up to go to Izzy's body mirror to check out my outfit. Izzy came up behind me and started checking herself out. I got to say, no matter how many times Izzy gets me ready I will never be used to the result that I get out of it. I turned around to check my backside, but that's when I realized how short it is in the back. It didn't look that short in the store. I immediately start pulling it down, but when I do that my chest pops out more. Great! I pull it back up to cover some of my chests, watching the back go back up to be right under my ass.

"Izzy?" I ask as I turn around to look at her.

"What? You look hot, it shows off your curves." Izzy said.

"What curves? I have no curves." I said.

"Come on Clary you have tons of curves. Look at how the romper perfectly brings out your hourglass figure?" Izzy asks.

"I don't have an hourglass figure, I mostly have a square figure," I say, looking at my body in the mirror. Before Izzy could answer there was a knock at the door. Izzy goes to get it as I stay there staring at myself.

"Perfect timing Jace. I was just giving Clary a pep talk." I heard Izzy say. I turn around to find them both looking at me.

"What do you mean giving her a pep talk?" Jace asks. Coming over to me, pulling me into a hug.

"Clary thinks she doesn't have curves and that she has a square figure and not an hourglass figure," Izzy explains. Jace lets go of me and stares into my eyes. To see if I was serious.

"Clary I love you and all but why you got to me so stupid sometimes. Izzy is 100% right, you have an hourglass figure. And so many curves, don't think otherwise." Jace spoke.

"No, Jace I don't," I say.

"Why don't we finish this discussion later. I'll show you what I think about your body. But right now we have a party to go to." Jace says. Putting his arm out so I could loop mine into his. I couldn't help but blush as he said that though. Just the thought of what he said brings butterflies to my stomach. He leads us out of Izzy's room. Izzy follows us out of the room but soon goes In front of us, almost as if she's giving us time alone. As we are walking down the hall Jace begins to speak again.

"I didn't say it before, but you look gorgeous." He spoke, quickly looking me up and down.

"Thanks, you don't look so bad yourself," I smirk back at him.

But it quickly disappears once we enter the light of the party hall. Everyone in that room began to congratulate us. But as I was grabbing a drink, I could feel many eyes on me. Almost as if they were checking me out and it made me uncomfortable. I quickly leave the room to find Jace.

To my surprise, he was on the dance floor. I put down my drink and go over to him. He didn't notice me at first, that was until I made him turn around and started dancing around him. I could feel his eyes trailing my body, but I didn't care. I then felt his hands on my hips, pulling me back to him. His hands stayed on my hips, but his grip was firm like he didn't want to let go. I took my hands and brought them to his chest, slowly bringing them up to his neck. As I do that I slowly begin to swag, my hips against his hands. But as soon as we were getting comfortable the music shut off and someone grabbed the microphone.

But that doesn't stop Jace from still holding on to me. I quickly looked at him and saw a giant smile that spread throughout his face. I could tell that he was happy and it made me happier than I could have ever thought. Then Izzy's voice snapped me out of it and caused me to look up at her. She was going on about how proud of us she was and how much we were made to be together. Her speech just makes me blush and soon enough it's over. I looked over at Jace to see that he was just staring at me.

"Hey, I need to talk to you about the date of the wedding. Could we go somewhere and talk?" I ask.

"Yeah, sure," Jace spoke. I grab his hand and lead him outside on the front porch. I immediately go over to the railing and lean over it.

"I'm sorry to say this, but I don't want the wedding to be after the baby comes. And I don't want a big belly when we get married and go on the honeymoon." I say.

"Ok, well what do you think?" He asks, leaning over the railing as well.

"Izzy had the idea of it being in 3 weeks. She said she could have it planned by then. I just feel like I would look fat in the dress and I just want to be able to look beautiful when I'm getting married to you. The love of my life." I say.

"Clary you would not look fat and you are always beautiful. But if this is what you want then we can do that." Jace spoke. I stand up and hug him. Super excited that he said yes.

"You're the best, you know that?" I ask. Still hugging him.

"Well, I guess I am." He teases. We pull away and look into each other's eyes. A thought then crosses my mind. It was about what he said before the party.

"What is that face?" He asks.

"I'm just thinking about what you said before the party," I say, flustered. A smirk appears on his face and he begins to wiggle his eyebrows.

"Oh, I see, you want to know what I would do to show you what I think?" He questions. I just nodded my head as I heard him chuckle.

"Well, you're just going to have to wait and see, until after the party." Jace teases. I groan as he says this. Another chuckle comes from his mouth. Making me put on a pout. I stomp away and go back to the party. Jace was still chuckling, knowing he got me flustered and annoyed. Once I go back into the building, I immediately want something to drink. I make my way to the kitchen to see Simon. Once he sees me he smiles.

"Hey, how have you and Izzy been?" I ask, outing myself some cranberry juice.

"It's been amazing. I know we are supposed to be mortal enemies, but to be honest that just makes it so much better." He spoke. He had a hint of love in his voice, I could tell because he sounded like Jace when he would talk about me.

"Well, I'm happy for you guys. You two are perfect for each other." I spoke.

"Funny because everyone thinks that about you and Jace." He said.

"Yeah, it's kind of weird. To think if I had never gotten hurt by that demon and stayed with Valentine and Jonathan, I would have never met him. Or any of you and it's crazy. Jace would have stayed a player and I would be getting beaten and raped every day." I say.

"I'm so sorry that ever happened to you."

"It's okay, I just wish the PTSD was gone. I feel like I'm a weak baby that Jace has to take care of." I say.

"Oh, he doesn't think that." I just shrug and look away.

"Well, I'm going to get back to the party, you should too. Ask Izzy to dance." I say. He just nods his head and then I turn around and walk away. As soon as I enter the room, the song becomes a slow song. Not paying attention I get pulled on the dance floor. I look up to see Luke. Oh my god! I quickly hug him and once I let go we go back to dancing. I can't believe Izzy invited him. And to think, I was going to have to walk down the aisle alone.

"I can't believe you're here," I say.

"Well your friend thought it would be a bad idea for me to not be here," he said.

"Luke? W - Will you walk me down the aisle?" I ask.

"Of course, kiddo! I wouldn't miss it." He spoke.

I don't think I could have gotten happier than I was, right then and there. I can't believe my life has become this way, I remember when I would cry myself to sleep, the time when I had no idea what love felt like or what it was like to be loved. The rest of the night went amazing. Within another hour the party was over and everyone fell asleep. Jace immediately pulled me upstairs and I knew what would happen. Exactly what he said would happen. I loved the party, but to be honest, I have been waiting for this all night. I could finally get out of these uncomfortable heels and take off this makeup. Just excited to get on with my brand new life
