My Crossbow Angel (Alec Lightwood) Unedited! & On Hold**

Jace on Trial & Night Terrors.

Jace was being sent to the Silent City for a trial. he was being condemned for what he did with Valentine and there was nothing either of us could do. we got our new anvoy dude who was a real charmer-note my sarcasm. he wanted Jace to be de-runed and stripped of his shadowhunter friends and family. he sided with Valentine.

i paced back and forth waiting for something, anything about Jace's trial. Clary went to the city of bones to see how he was doing, i didnt wanna see my brother in a jail cell. he was protecting us. he came back to save his parabati. isnt that enough?

"babe calm down. theres nothing we can do. the soul sword will reveal everything." Alec informed me and i glared at him, "i know this Al. but its my brother! i cant just stand here and pray hes gonna be okay! he could be de-runed by tonight!" i exclaimed irriated. "okay sweetheart you need to relax." Maryse grabbed my shoulders mid walk and i huffed in annoyance. "Alec take her somewhere quiet. she needs to de-stress." he nodded and grabbed my hand and took me somewhere.

i saw the library doors and raised an eyebrow at him. "the library?" he rolled his eyes, "more the piano." i smiled at my husband. he knew me too well. we sat on the stool and my fingers expertly played the piano and soon words floated from my lips as i sung a song i wrote a really long time ago.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You got me sippin' on something
I can't compare to nothing
I've ever known, I'm hoping
That after this fever I'll survive
I know I'm acting a bit crazy
Strung out, a little bit hazy
Hand over heart, I'm praying
That I'm gonna make it out aliveThe bed's getting cold and you're not here
The future that we hold is so unclear
But I'm not alive until you call
And I'll bet the odds against it all
Save your advice 'cause I won't hear
You might be right but I don't care
There's a million reasons why I should give you up
But the heart wants what it wants
The heart wants what it wantsYou got me scattered in pieces
Shining like stars and screaming
Lighting me up like Venus
But then you disappear and make me wait
And every second's like torture
Hell over trip, no more so
Finding a way to let go
Baby, baby, no I can't escapeThe bed's getting cold and you're not here
The future that we hold is so unclear
But I'm not alive until you call
And I'll bet the odds against it all
Save your advice 'cause I won't hear
You might be right but I don't care
There's a million reasons why I should give you up
But the heart wants what it wants
The heart wants what it wants
The heart wants what it wants
The heart wants what it wantsThis is a modern fairy tale
No happy endings
No wind in our sails
But I can't imagine a life without
Breathless moments
Breaking me down, down, down, downThe bed's getting cold and you're not here
The future that we hold is so unclear
But I'm not alive until you call
And I'll bet the odds against it all
Save your advice 'cause I won't hear
You might be right but I don't care
There's a million reasons why I should give you up
But the heart wants what it wants
The heart wants what it wants
The heart wants what it wants
The heart wants what it wantsThe heart wants what it wants, baby
It wants what it wants, baby
It wants what it wants
It wants what it wantsThe heart wants what it wants, baby
It wants what it wants

tears gathered in my eyes but i pushed them away and i smiled when i finished singing. Alec's jaw dropped at my voice and smiled, "it was beautiful sweetheart. when did you write that?" i smiled a little but frowned at the memory, "when we didnt talk for 3 days after everything went down the drain..." he frowned at the memory as well knowing which one i was talking about.

i leaned my head on his shoulder and sighed. i rubbed my belly feeling at ease for a moment. Clary came running in and skidded to a stop, "hes going on trial in an hour. did you wanna say something to him?" i sighed and nodded. we got up and i kissed Alec quickly before following Clary to the city of bones and to Jace's cell. a sob escaped when i saw him and he glanced up and instantly stood up.
