|PICTURES ARE NOT MINE|
Your boyfriend is a vampire.
Something you never thought you'd say or truly believe.
But it does seem to add to the aesthetic of fall, or more specifically Halloween.
Halloween is about a week away so Clary brought it upon herself to try and get you all together to do fall activities.
Today you’re carving pumpkins but it seems that only you Clary, and Simon are in attendance.
When you arrived Clary said something about the shadow hunters being busy with something at the institute and that they might join you later for the movie.
You walked out to the back to see your boyfriend and Luke putting newspapers on the table on the patio.
You’re out at the farmhouse for the weekend, Clary and Simon said it would be the perfect ambiance for fall activities. You couldn’t help but agree now that you're standing outside.
“Are we sure these aren’t gonna fly away?” Jocelyn Fairchild asked, looking skeptically at the table covered in the newspaper.
“We can always tape them down later. Besides, the pumpkin's weight will keep most of them grounded.” Luke shrugged looking at his fiance
“Oh! Speaking of pumpkins we should probably go get them from the truck.” Clary said rushing back inside
Luke and Jocelyn began to walk after their daughter meeting somewhere in between and wrapping their arms around each other.
Simon made his way over to you and pulled you into a quick greeting hug.
It was different hugging Simon after he turned, you were sure of that but you couldn’t quite remember how it had felt hugging him before he turned. You quickly realize that you're not so sure we hugged at all before he turned.
Simon's lips pressed to your forehead and you shivered involuntarily. It was an odd feeling, not unpleasant, just weird.
“How was the drive?” He mumbled, his lips pulling away from your forehead.
He kept one of his arms wrapped around your shoulder as you began walking after our friends.
“Decent.” You shrugged, “I must admit I forgot how beautiful this place was.”
You had been to Luke's farmhouse once before, about a week ago, but it had been nighttime and you hadn’t been there long.
Now, seeing the field of trees and grass in the light of the late afternoon you felt peaceful.
Something that has recently become foreign.
When fighting demons becomes your life you begin to savor this domestic kind of peace. Something as simple as looking at a pretty view wrapped up in the arms of someone you love.
“Me too. But if you think it’s beautiful now you should see it in the spring, when all the plants are coming back to life after the winter.” Simon replied
Your stomach rattled in excitement, something about Simon sharing something he loved with you felt so...lovely? You can’t really find a good word to describe it.
Your relationship is still new, but your feelings have been growing for far longer.
Walking out in the front to where Luke’s truck (and your car as well) is parked on the gravel road.
Clary stood holding a pumpkin wider than her frame, the orange being an odd contrast to her hair.
She looked up at the sound of the door shutting behind you and grinned, “Finally, I thought you guys might’ve gotten lost in the bedroom.”
Simon surely would have flushed if he was still human, and your own cheeks conjured a bit of a rosy tint on them.
“Clary!” Her mother chastised, Luke shook his head disapprovingly but didn’t say anything.
Clary blushed a little bit, seemingly forgotten her parents were there too.
“Whoops. Sorry.” She said but her grin didn’t fade, and you all knew she wasn’t really sorry.
“Don’t worry Clary, we'll save our antics for bedtime.” You whispered to her once you were close enough
Clary giggled and Simon looked shocked.
He squeezed your arm and sent you a teasing glare.
You responded with a mischievous grin of your own and kissed him lightly on the cheek.
He made a grumble sound of appreciation.
Apparently, Luke and Clary had gotten up early this morning and picked out a bunch of pumpkins from a local market for you to choose from.
Once you picked one you all headed back out to the patio.
“Are you sure you don’t want me to carry yours?” Simon asked you once more
You nodded in response just as Clary said, “Don’t worry Simon, you can show her your new found strength later in the bedroom.” This time her voice was hushed to make sure her parents weren’t listening.
Though in the back of your mind you wondered if Luke had heard anyway.
But when you looked over at him he was chatting happily with Jocelyn so he probably wasn’t paying attention to your trio.
Once you all found your place at the table Luke pulled out a little bin of carving tools and put them in the center.
“I wasn’t able to get any from the store because they were all sold out, so these are the ones from last year that we were able to save. So we’ll all have to share. And Simon you can still bleed so please be careful with that knife.” Luke said, causing all of you to snap your attention to your boyfriend, who was examining one of the sharper knives.
He looked quite offended to be called out, “What- I wasn’t going to stab myself!”
“You may not have meant to but that doesn’t mean it wouldn’t have happened.” Clary muttered causing you to laugh
Simon sent a glare towards both of you but you only giggled in return.
...............
Turns out fighting demons made it easier to carve a pumpkin.
No one asked for Luke’s assistance (which he seemed to be a little upset by) as you cut the tops of your pumpkins out.
You watched as Simon put his arm into the pumpkin to grab the first handful of pumpkin guts and saw him shiver in disgust.
“I swear it didn’t feel like that last year.” He said
“You're a vampire now.” You respond
“Right.” He muttered
......................
Sometime later, you walked over towards Simon to borrow one of his knives when you saw him beginning to carve out on the face of the pumpkin.
“You're done scooping out the seeds?” you ask glancing towards the pumpkin so see plenty more of the pumpkins insides still present.
“Yes. Why?” He asked
“Well it's just..” You reached into the pumpkin and pulled out a handful of seeds.
“I’ll get those later.” Simon shrugged
You huffed out a laugh and threw the seeds at your boyfriend, causing him to let out an over exaggerated gasp.
Clary, who had apparently been watching, started to laugh. You giggled before looking at Simon’s face and wondered for a moment if you had gone too far.
Then he looked up and grinned at you, “Oh is that what we’re doing now!” He reached back into the pumpkin and pulled out two handfuls of guts. He threw one at you and the other at Clary.
“Hey!” Clary yelled out in surprise
You only giggled and walked back towards your own pumpkin to gather some of the insides that had piled up beside your pumpkin.
When you looked back up, a handful of seeds and such in both hands, you saw that Clary was smearing some pumpkin guts on Simon’s shirt.
You ran over to help Clary, throwing some of the stuff at Simon’s face. He cried out in disgust and looked towards you.
Realizing what he was about to do you began to try to run backwards but Simon was faster.
He grabbed you around your middle and threw you over his shoulder.
Then I heard Clary shout, “Let her go!”
She was running towards you with more orange guts in her hands.
Simon seemed to have also noticed his best friend because his arms tightened around you as he started running away.
Simon was running at a human pace, you noted.
You couldn’t breathe because of how hard you were laughing as Simon ran in circles with Clary after him shouting things like;
“Put her down and I won’t have to gut you!”
“Simon Lewis I hope you don’t value your hair too much!”
“Once i’m done with you i’m going to enter you into a pumpkin contest you’ll look so orange!”
Eventually Clary caught up with you, but at that point you were dizzy from being tossed around as Simon ran.
As Clary threw pumpkin guts at Simon, he seemed to be tossing you around even more as he tried not to get hit.
“Okay kids if you want to finish these pumpkins before dark you better go back over here!” Luke called
Simon and Clary seemed to have silently agreed to yield their fight and Simon lowered you to the ground.
You stumbled a little but Simon's arms quickly sought out to help you.
“You okay?” Clary asked you, still out of breath from running and laughing
You nodded but you caught Simon's worried glance, “I’m okay.” you assured him
He smiled apologetically, “I’m sorry.”
“Don’t be sorry, I had fun.” You grinned, still a little dizzy
“Okay lovebirds.” Clary called out walking back to her parents
“Just because Jace isn’t here doesn’t mean you have to rain on our parade.” Simon called back causing Clary to let out a laugh
Simon kept a steadying arm around your waist as you walked back to the table.
When you got closer you realized that Jocelyn and Luke’s clothes had also been stained in orange, you think they had their own little fight as well.
When you got back to carving out pumpkins (with occasionally throwing of guts until Jocelyn told all of us to stop to stop) things were peaceful with the remains of laughter still in the air.
Finally you finished, and looked over at your friends.
Clary and her mother were still very concentrated on their pumpkins. But Simon and Luke seemed to be chatting.
“You done?” You asked going over to your boyfriends side
“Yep, look!” He said beaming proudly his arm coming around your shoulder to pull you closer.
When you looked over at the pumpkin you saw a glob of different shapes.
“What is it?” You asked after a moment
“What do you mean? It’s a smiley face with fangs!” He said genuinely shocked
“Oh!” You nodded
“Let me see.” Clary said, wiping her hands off on some of the newspaper.
When she walked over she let out a laugh, causing you to bite back one your own.
Simon teasingly kicked the back of her leg but it only caused Clary to laugh harder.
“It’s wonderful, Simon! Here, let me take a picture!” Clary said grinning
Simon was quick to move causing you to nearly lose your balance.
“Absolutely not, you are not sending that to Jace!” Simon stated
“What makes you think I'm sending it to Jace?” Clary questioned
“Because I know you!”
“Oh-Whatever!” Clary said
“Fine. If you think mine is so bad then let's see yours!” Simon said but as soon as the words came out of his mouth he seemed to reconsider.
“Of course.” Clary grinned
The three of you walked over and saw that Clary had carved some sort of ghoul and had even added some runes to the pumpkin.
“Really? A shadow hunter ghoul.” Simon said seemingly unimpressed
“You should’ve just carved out Jace.” You teased, earning a laugh from your boyfriend. He sent you a pride filled smile, that made your heart speed up.
Clarys face seemed to be a mix between unimpressed and amused.
“And make his ego grow some more, absolutely not.” Clary said
“I say we name him...flace.” Simon said
“Flace?” you and Clary said at the same time
“It’s a mixture between flaky and Jace, I think it fits.” Simon said with a grin
“Did you just call my boyfriend flaky?” Clary asked already starting towards Simon.
.................
The rest of the night seemed to be trying to save Simon from Clarys wrath. But in the end you wouldn’t have spent it any other way.

—————————————
|PICTURES DO NOT BELONG TO ME|
Is it odd to be jealous of a cat?
Maybe, but you’re sure you aren’t the first.
Atticus, an unknown breed of cat that had followed Daphne back to Hogwarts after a Hogsmeade trip in her fifth year. He was a sweet cat if he wanted to be. But normally he didn’t want anything to do with anyone except Daphne.
Which made it difficult when you had to take him for holiday breaks.
Daphne and Astorias parents were quite strict. They would’ve noticed Atticus the second Daphne had stepped into their home.
Which Daphne always laughed about because they only ‘gave a damn’ if their daughters did something wrong. Every other time they were treated like ornaments.
So, you had tasked yourself with taking care of her darling cat every break. Not that the cat was ever willing.
It was one of the many sighs of relief when you graduated from Hogwarts.
After a couple years you and Daphne moved in together. You were ecstatic about moving in with Daphne, but there were certainly some unexpectant challenges when it came to Atticus.
Like right now. You had gotten up to use the bathroom and the cat took your rightful place next Daphne. Curled up next to her like you once were.
You groaned in frustration. You were tired and didn’t want to have to deal with a needy cat.
You remind yourself that it’s your bed. Atticus has one of his own in Daphne's room. You shouldn’t feel bad, the cat gets to snuggle with Daphne almost as much as he wants. Yet, you do as you stride over to the bed with purpose.
You grab the cat gently but firmly so he doesn’t fall from your grip, and march over to Daphne's bedroom. The moment you picked him up he was making loud sounds of complaint. You tried to ignore it as you made down the familiar path towards Daphne's bedroom. You gently plopped the cat on his bed and cracked Daphne's bedroom door. Atticus would be able to get the door open and come running back to your room if he wished. You would just be back in bed before he got there.
When you plopped down on your bed and cozied yourself under the covers, you let out a sigh of victory.
“I could’ve sworn you were furrier.” Daphne hummed, in a sleep laced voice
“Yeah, whatever.” You muttered, snuggling closer to her.
She draped her arm over your waist lazily and peaked at you through hooded eyes, “If you’re jealous of my cat, you’re more than welcome to get your own.” She had a teasing smile on her face.
You murmured out something indecipherable as the warmth of your bed had already pulled you halfway into the depths of slumber.
———————————
Your home was filled with winter tunes. The noise came from your record player, which you insisted on playing despite Daphne's ignorance to the works of a record player.
Tonight, you were to dine with your family. Astoria and Daphne were also to attend.
Since neither girls were in contact with their parents, you opted to have both at your home.
While Astoria was ecstatic at being surrounded by your family, Daphne was less so. She was grateful for your offer, truly she was. But she enjoyed the solitude of your shared home much more.
That’s why, every year, you and Daphne have agreed that she will travel to your home before dinner, and stay for dessert, before the two of you re-enter the comfort of your home.
Daphne only really did it for you and Astoria.
The blonde had practically raised her younger sister herself, and since the brunette was the younger of the materialistic parents' children, she rarely ever was in conversation with her parents.
Daphne was the elder of the two. The crown jewel of the Greengrass name. Her reputation was everything to her parents.
She followed her parents orders to her own expense, only ever finding love and warmth from her younger sister, whom she taught love and kindness herself. Daphne always shielded Astoria as much as she could from her parents' cold souls. She made sure she followed her parents strict orders, only ever acting out in private, tutoring her when her grades were slipping below perfection, schooling her how to be a pretty picture with expert mannerisms without being the center of attention.
Daphne always knew that no matter how hard she tried Astoria had struggled from her parents neglectance and the strict rule of showing only false emotions, and mannerisms.
So, she tried to be better now, where they could no longer be reached by their parents' grasps.
Astoria had always adored and loved Daphne more than anyone. And when Daphne learned to love you, Astoria wasn’t long behind, coming to love you as a close friend and a person of guidance.
You were meant to leave your home soon. Picking and prodding at your attire so that you looked as you wished.
You could hear Daphne's footsteps from outside your bedroom before you could see her. Making eye-contact with her through your mirror (which was littered with many moving pictures of the two of you).
You turn, “How do I look?” You asked
One of the pros of being in a relationship with Daphne, is that she doesn’t beat around the bush. However, this could also turn into a con at times.
Her eyes raked over your frame, her eyes held admiration as she calculated her thoughts.
“You shouldn’t wear those shoes, they’re cheap and uncomfortable. I doubt any charm you used would be able to soften them. Wear the black ones I bought you, they’ll match your outfit brilliantly.” Daphne said
You nodded, she had a point, these shoes were wildly uncomfortable, but you liked the look of them.
You’d save them for a date night, you tell yourself.
Slipping on the shoes Daphne had gifted you not too long ago, your feet instantly felt much better.
“What time should I arrive?” Daphne quested, a few arrivals of clothing and jewelry floating behind her.
“Same time as last year, and the year before that.” You smiled
Daphne nodded, her expression stoic, as usual. Daphne was notorious for having a resting bitch face, your friends had once told you.
“What shall I wear?” Daphne asked thoughtfully, using her wand to move the floating possessions in front of you.
You examined the options before picking out the pieces you liked best.
Daphne nodded, she tapped her wand once and the attire was gone.
“Don’t miss me too much.” You joked, walking over to her for a goodbye kiss.
Daphne smiled softly, and allowed you to place a kiss on her cheek. She turned her head waiting expectantly for another kiss.
You kissed her lips, immediately wishing you weren’t to see your family soon. You would’ve preferred if you could spend all night kissing the blonde. Unfortunately, that wasn’t an option.
Daphne may hate social gatherings, but she hated not being punctual more. She believed that if you said you were going to be somewhere then you should be there.
“Don’t be long.” You begged breathlessly.
You stepped back, Daphne giving you a wink before you apparated to your parents home.
—————————————
You were always pleasantly surprised at the familiar scent of your childhood home.
The entirety of your past home was filled with family and friends, drinking, laughing, talking, and of course gossiping.
You’d had your fair share of family members come up to you to comment on ‘how you’ve grown’ or ‘how you look so beautiful’.
You tried to stay clear of the attendants you weren’t close with. Choosing to stick around those you were more fond of.
“So, how’s that girlfriend of yours?” Your grandma asked, patting your thigh affectionately.
As she’s aged she seems to forget more and more.
Your occupation, relationships, and recent travelings were always the topics.
“Daphne's good.” You said
“And what is she doing now?” You grandmother asked
“She’s a court scribe for the ministry.” You answered
Your grandmother nodded, but she doubted she heard you or even processed what you said.
You excuse yourself politely, making your way to the front door.
One tick, two ticks, three ticks…
A polite knock on the door.
You pulled it open, smiling brightly at the sight of your beautiful girlfriend dressed in the outfit you chose.
You said your greetings and then pulled her towards your parents.
“Oh, Daphne, how lovely to see you.” Your mother beamed at her.
“How’s work going?” Your father asked
Neither of your parents made a move to hug Daphne. They had learned throughout the years the two of you had been together that Daphne was not a hugging kind of person.
Daphne answered your parents' questions politely, only stopping when Astoria bounded over to the two of you.
“Daph, you’re here!” Astoria gave Daphne a one-armed hug
Your parents excused themselves politely, knowing this conversation was more wanted between the three of you.
“Yes, I am.” Daphne said quietly in a regretful tone.
Over the course of conversation Daphne wrapped her arm around you subconsciously.
“Rumor has it that you’re seeing someone.” You added
Astoria blushed.
Daphne looked quite shocked, “What?”
“It’s nothing serious.” Astoria reassured her sister, “At least, not right now.” She added quietly
“Since when were you seeing anyone?” Daphne asked
“Relax, Daph.” You whispered
Daphne sent you an incredulous look before turning to her sister expectantly.
“I think you’ll like him.” Astoria said, smiling, “Both of you.”
“Does that mean we can meet him?” You asked
“Not yet. But, soon.” Astoria promised
You elbowed Daphne.
Daphne sighed, “I’m happy for you. Truly, I am.”
Astoria grinned, “I know, Daph.”
Astoria excused herself to go help your mother.
“I think it’s nice.” You commented
“We’ll see.” Said Daphne.
——————————————
The two of you were to leave soon.
Dinner and dessert had been served and it had all been graciously enjoyed.
When games began you pulled Daphne out to sit outside.
“I’ll be right back!” You added, before rushing back into the house.
When you walked back outside, Daphne was sitting in the gazebo in your yard, she seemed to be examining the lights you had hung around it earlier that season.
Her head turned when she heard your footsteps.
She quickly noticed the thing in your hands and raised a brow.
“I was hoping..” you began, nervously, “You’d play for me.”
You handed her the Violin.
“Did you buy this ‘specially for me?” Daphne jokes
“It’s custom made. It’s..your present.” You said
Daphne looked up at you in surprise.
She looked down at the case that held her instrument, and opened it slowly.
The Violin was gorgeous. It matched Daphne's complete persona.
Daphne looked over it, delicately running her fingers along it.
“It’s..so lovely.” Daphne whispered, “Thank you.” She said even quieter.
She pulled the Violin out and placed the case delicately on the space beside her.
“Any song in particular?” She asked
Your heart sped up, “No.” you answered
Daphne stood, positioning the Violin so that she could play.
When Daphne had told you she could play, she mentioned she always played standing up.
You had never physically seen Daphne play, only heard it.
When Daphne hit the first string, you breath caught.
You’d heard both muggle and wizard music in your life. Both were unique and beautiful in their own ways.
Daphne put them both to shame in a matter of seconds.
The blondes eyes were closed as she let her muscle memory do all the work. You didn’t recognize the sound from her violin to be familiar.
Though, none of it mattered as the violins music became more frequent and the lights on the gazebo began to perform to the beat of Daphne's music.
The lights flickered, dimmed, and brightened as Daphne played.
You felt like you were in an alternate universe, being lulled to sleep by an angel.
You were positive that this tune would guide you for the rest of the week. As not only the sound soothed you but the picturesque scene of your breath-taking love.
It makes sense and I’m kind of obsessed with this now.
Jace grew up all alone with just his father and the servants. He probably hadn’t even met someone his old age until he was ten and was adopted by the Lightwoods. Max adored Jace. Max litterally died with Jaces old toy in his hands.
The thing about Jace is that he wants to better than Valentine. And im not saying that would be the only reason he’d have kids, but I think at the end of the day he’d try his very best to not be the kind of father Valentine was to him. Six to eight kids is definetly a lot. But I think Jace really just wants to be surrounded by family. Especially with the person he loves.
I also think Jace adores kids. He tries to be gentle with them. I think it’s because he sees their innocence and knows that he never got to have that.
You know how in the fics they usually portrayed Jace as scared to have kids? Because he was afraid he'd be a bad father figure? Well canon Jace really said that's bullshit, I want 8 😌
Come on Cassie give him at least a puppy, a cat or a freaking plant... I'm not asking for much

|PICTURES ARE NOT MINE|
——————————————————————
“Hello, how can I help you?” Peeta’s professional tone is quickly replaced with a genuine smile when he notices it’s you he’s talking to.
You hesitated for a moment, “I was hoping I could show you something…when you aren’t working?” It came out as a question because your mind is suddenly questioning every reason you decided to ask him.
Peeta takes a glance at the space behind him. You see that he catches his fathers eye and the older man comes up to the front.
Peeta whispers something to his father as you observe the bakery. The comforting space was familiar to you as you had been in here as a customer many times. You were silently glad that it was only you and the Mellarks in. But, more specifically you were glad that Peeta’s mother wasn’t in.
When the whispering stopped you turned your head towards Peeta to see him smiling while examining your face.
He drew his eyes away when he noticed he was caught, “Let me put my jacket on, okay?”
You nodded and sat at one of the tables in the bakery.
Peeta wasn’t long, rushing out from behind the counter with a white bag with some of the bakery’s goods.
“I know these are your favorite.” He held them out to you.
You took them in a bit of shock, flattered that he knew that they were your favorite, “Thank you.”
He nodded and then sent a glance at the door. Suddenly remembering why you came, you hopped up from your chair and made your way out the bakeries door. Glancing back a few times to make sure Peeta was following you.
———————————————
After a few minutes of walking with pleasant chatter between you and the blonde, you stopped at the wooden fence that surrounded your town.
“It’s beyond the fence?” Peeta’s tone was questioning.
“Yep.” You said, climbing over the fence slower than you normally would, nervous that he would decide to back out.
But Peeta only climbed over the fence and looked at you with eyes full of trust, letting you lead the way.
You suddenly realized how easy it would’ve been to take Peeta anywhere. You could’ve taken him to an active volcano and he would’ve followed you loyally, trusting you with his life.
Your gaze found the opening in the trees that you had discovered not too long ago, and turned towards Peeta, only to find he was looking at you already.
“It’s through the opening right there.” You pointed. Peeta followed your gaze and nodded.
He let you go first before following through. The blonde gazed around the sight of the abandoned train tracks in wonder.
“The forest practically covers every entrance and exit. I’ve yet to find another opening I can easily get through.” You commented.
Peeta grinned at you, “How did you find it?”
You shrugged, “Dumb luck, I suppose. I was spaced out while watching the trees when I caught a glimpse of the tracks.”
“How far does it go?”
“Miles. I haven’t found an end though.”
“Does anybody else know about it?”
“Just us.”
Peeta turned at you, his gaze questioning, “Why did you show it to me?”
You avoided his eyes, “I thought you’d like it.”
“I do like it.” Peeta confirmed, “Why not any of your other friends?”
You kicked a stone you found on the tracks, “I don’t have many friends.”
Peeta shook his head, “I don’t believe that.”
You caught sight of his smile and you couldn’t help but match it. You sat down on the edge of a track, it wasn’t the most comfortable but you preferred it to the ground, “Well it is.”
“How come? You're such an amazing person. I mean, you're smart, kind, thoughtful, and beautiful.” Peeta said
“You’re not too bad yourself.” You opened the bag of the bakery goodies and offered him a bit.
He shook his head and plopped down next to you.
“I showed you because…you’re just…I like your company.” You said.
Peeta nodded, “I like your company too.” After a beat of silence he added, “Also, because..I admire you. I mean, I never would’ve been able to find a place like this.” He motioned to the space around us.
You shook your head, “It was just dumb luck.”
“Maybe. But anyone else wouldn’t have cared for it the way you do. They wouldn’t have seen it the way you do.”
“How do I see it?” You asked quietly
“Peaceful, beautiful, a place that’s so special you’d only show it to a few people.” He gazed at you, speaking in a whisper, “It’s one of the reasons I like you.”
You examined his face to see if you were interpreting his sentence wrong, but when he moved closer to you, your heart fluttered with joy.
“Can I kiss you?” He asked
You nodded so subtle you weren’t sure he noticed until he did kiss you.
His lips were warm, soft, and comforting.
It was a quick but meaningful kiss. He grinned widely before pulling you in for a longer one, his hand coming up to caress your cheek.
“You like me?” You asked after it was over.
“I thought it was obvious.” He laughed, “Do you like me?”
“I thought it was obvious.” You repeated, before kissing him another time.

|PICTURES ARE NOT MINE|
The bed was nice and comfortable this particular morning. A little too comfortable. But you don’t think that was because of the bed.
A hand was rubbing up and down your back. Soothing you and relaxing your posture. You don’t think you could’ve cared if a demon had burst through the door at that very moment.
“I was wondering when you would finally wake up.” The blonde said
“The beds comfortable.” You replied in a whisper
“You mean my bed is comfortable.”
You looked around the room in confusion. Sure enough you were in Jaces room.
Your brain scanned for memories of last night.
“What happened?” You asked turning around to face him.
Jace was propped up on his elbow, his face in his palm as he looked down on you.
“We nearly got killed by a demon. We got back to the institute and ordered some dinner, you crashed after dinner. Typical night.” Jace shrugged
You nodded, half awake. A yawn left your mouth.
“So,” you began, “what’s for breakfast?”
Jace smiled, an easy, soft smile. Not like the sharp sarcastic ones he often gave others. These smiles were reserved for only when it was the two of you.
“Well, Alec’s at the old warlocks, Izzy went out with fangs, and Clary’s at the abandoned police station, meeting with some werewolves. Something apparently happened last weekend that we needed to be bothered about so Clary went to check it out. So we could order in or-”
“Should we have sent someone with her?” You asked
“Her dads there of course. Besides, Clary can hold her own.”
You hummed in agreement, Clary might be small but she is one feisty girl. Especially when you beat her at a board game while drunk.
Jace cleared his throat teasingly, “As I was saying we could order something or I could make something.”
You raised your eyebrows, “You can cook?”
“And bake.” Jace added, seemingly not at all offended by his partner's words.
“Since when?”
“Since forever. My father wanted me to be very diverse in my skills, that includes culinary arts.” He stopped for a moment, “And how to sing the entire abc’s in fifteen seconds.”
You were going to comment on that but Jace sat up, and you closed your mouth.
“Shall we?” He held out his hand for you
You chuckled and took his hand, “I suppose we shall.”
—————————
The kitchen was reasonably enormous. With the amount of rooms the institute held it only made for the kitchen to be such an extended space.
Jace let go of your hand and went over the fridge.
When you saw him eyeing the leftovers you spoke up, “I thought you were supposed to be showing off your excellent chef skills.”
Jace looked towards, amused, “I am, but that doesn’t mean I can’t think about lunch in the process.”
You rolled your eyes but smiled nonetheless.
Jace looked at the fridge, deep in the thought, then he grinned.
You raised your eyebrows, “What’s that look?”
Jace looked at you, “What look?”
You point at him, “That one. It makes me nervous.”
He smirked, “I make you nervous?”
“Wha- You know what I mean.” You said
His smirk didn’t fade, “Of course I do.”
You watched him as he walked to the cabinets and began searching through them.
He glanced back at you, “Make yourself comfortable, darling. Perfection takes time.”
——————————
You lost track of the time. You mostly talked to Jace while he worked. Jace was a good multi-tasker. He told you some old stories (some you were sure he made up) as he continued his work.
Like fighting, Jace moved smoothly throughout the kitchen. Never knocking anything over, or burning himself, or stopping to make sure he had added the right thing into the pan. You were a little jealous.
“Go sit at the table.” Jace said
Twenty minutes later he brought over a tray of food. You felt a bit like royalty in that moment.
The food looked amazing, you had believed him when he said he could cook and bake but you were very pleasantly surprised.
If it looked amazing, it certainly smelled even better.
The tray was full of the kind of food you’d see in a movie. There was a mixture of fruits, fluffy pancakes, a little cup full of syrup, another of chocolate chips. It even had a little cup full of your favorite candy. There was chocolate syrup in another cup.
Jace leaned over you with a whipped cream can in hand and made a little swirl on top of your pancakes. He gave you a kiss on the cheek as well.
You looked up at him, jaw dropped. He only smirked in return, validated by your expression.
“Wow, Jace, this is…amazing.” You said for a lack of a better word.
“I told you.” He said
He took a couple of the mixed fruits from your plate and popped them into his mouth.
You raised an eyebrow at him, but he only took another, keeping eye contact with you the entire time.
“Now,” He pushed the tray towards you, “try it so you can tell me more about how jaw dropping I am.”
“I did not say jaw dropping.” You said
His smirk was still ever so present, “You didn’t have to, darling.”
You cast one more glare towards him before adding what you wanted to your pancakes and taking a bite.
It was really good.
You couldn’t help but moan in delight.
“I take it I am as good as I know I am.” Jace said
“I admit, this is really fantastic.” You said
“Fantastic, hm? I like that.” He said, “Since I made it I suppose it’s only fair if I try it, right?”
You shrugged, he had made a lot of food.
You expected him to take the fork and dig into the pancakes, not to pull you into his lap and kiss you.
He swallowed your gasp of surprise, passionately kissing you until you couldn’t remember the taste of the food.
When he pulled back, you were confused.
He looked at you in thought before saying, “My food is fantastic.”
But the look in his eyes told you he didn’t care at all for the food.
His hands that rested on your hips pulled your lips back to his.
The leftovers from breakfast were put in the fridge for later.
