The chapter you have all been asking for is here!!! Yay!!

2 years later

I wake up to the sun coming through the curtains. I get out of the bed and go to the closet. It's finally May so I can finally wear something short sleeved. I decide on a plain black t shirt and jeans. I slip on some vans. I get myself ready for the day and I go downstairs to Braxton's room.

When I open the door I see something sitting up. I turn the light on and see it's him. "Hi mommy" Braxton says with a huge grin on his face. "Hi Braxton" I say and smile at him.

(The little boy above is Braxton. Just picture him with green eyes)

"What do you want to wear today" I ask and open his closet. My 3 year old slides off his twin bed and comes up to me. "Mickey shirt mommy" he says. Braxton loves Mickey Mouse. Mom got him a big Mickey Mouse stuffed animal. It's his favorite stuffed animal now. "Okay, go stand on your stool in the bathroom and I will help you get dressed" I tell him. He goes and stands on his stool like I tell him to. I grab his Mickey Mouse shirt, Mickey jacket and a pair of grey pants.

I go into the bathroom and help him put his shirt on. "I gotta go potty" he says. "You want to try and go in the big boy potty" I ask. "I'll try" he says. I help him sit on the toilet. "I'm going to go get your shoes and I want to see you went potty when I get back" I tell him. I leave the bathroom and grab a pair of shoes from the bottom of the closet. I go back in his bathroom and see him sitting on the toilet. "Did you go bud" I ask. "I did it mommy" he says. "Let me see" I ask. He gets off the potty and I help him put his pants on. I look in the toilet to see that he did go potty. "Good job Braxton" I say and give him a high five. I help him get his shoes on and brush his teeth. I brush his hair for him. We leave his room to go to breakfast. "Come on riv" I call. She comes out of my bedroom and the three of us go to breakfast.

"How many French toast sticks do you want" I ask Braxton. "Four" he says. I cut up four French toast sticks and put them on his plate. "You want syrup" I ask. "Yes pease" he says. He still struggles with saying his Ls in words. I pour syrup all over his French toast sticks and make my breakfast plate.

"Can I go play on the swing" Braxton asks. "Finish your breakfast then you can go play outside" I tell him. He finishes his breakfast and I finish mine. We go outside to the back of the castle to the wooden tree swing. I set him on it and push him on the swing.

After a while of pushing him on the swing a soldier runs up to me. "Queen Clary, Josten needs to see you right away in his office. It's important" he tells me. I stop the swing. "Come on Braxton. We need to see what's wrong and then you can come back" I tell him. "But mommy" he whines. "Come on Braxton" I tell him. He gets off the swing and takes my hand. We walk over to jostens office. "What's wrong" I ask. "Nothing is wrong. I think you would want to see this though" he says and hands me a folded piece of paper. I unfold it.

'It has come to my attention that this war has gone on for quite some time. My soldiers are tired and I am tired myself from wanting this child. I have looked for far too long for Princess Grace. I can't seem to find her anywhere. So, I, the queen of the seelie courts in the land of faerie, am surrendering in this war to Queen Clarissa Herondale of the shadow world. I will let my commander know and withdraw my troops. You may finally bring back your troops as well. Good luck to you Queen Clarissa. -the queen of the seelie court.'

"Is this-" I start. "A surrender letter, yes. They are on their way back as we speak. We did it Queen Clary. We won this war. Here is a list of all who are still alive" he says and hands me a long list of paper with names on it. Alec's name is one there at the top. The list is in alphabetical order. Next is Isabelle lightwood, then Jonathan Herondale. Thank god jace is still alive. Then Jonathan Morganstern. It says Lucian Garroway, Magnus' name is on the list a little farther down from Luke's. I see Simon and Tessa's name on there as well closer to the end.

"Do you know when they will all he back" I ask. "They are on their way back now. But they will be going to the hospital in Alicante first where the silent brothers will be there to take care of anyone who needs healing" he tells me. "Thank you Josten. We never would have won this without you" I say. "Of course" he says. "I'm going to go tell Alice the news. She will want to go see Jonathan later" I tell him. "Come on Braxton. Let's go find your aunt Alice" I tell him. "Okay mommy" he says. He gets up off the floor and we go find alice.

"Aunt Alice" Braxton says and goes up to her. "Hi Braxton" she says. "She surrendered" I tell Alice. "What are you talking about?" She asks. "The Seelie Queen. She surrendered. The war is over" I explain. "Are you serious" she asks looking shocked. "Yeah, they are on their way back now" I tell her. "Do you know if Jonathan is still alive" she asks. "He is. There was a list of people still alive. They are all alive" I tell her. "Thank the Angel. Can we go see them" she asks. "In a little while. They are going to the hospital in Alicante to get checked up on. Can you watch Braxton while I go call mom and tell her the news. I will go get her and Jem and when we get back we can all four go see them" I tell her. "I will watch him" she says. "Braxton, I'm going to go get nana and bring her here. You will have uncle Carson here too when we get back. Stay with aunt Alice" I tell him. "Yes mommy" he says. He calls my mom nana and I think its cute. He hasn't met Maryse yet so I don't know what he will call her.

I go to my office and call mom.  "Hi clary" she says. "Mom I just received the best news" I tell her. "What is it" she asks. "The seelie queen just surrendered. They are all coming home. Lukes name was on the list of the ones alive" I tell her. "Really?" she asks, her voice cracking. "I'm serous. I'm going to come home and get you, Carson, Jem and Logan so you, me ,Alice and Jem can go to see them" I tell her. "Okay, I will call Jem and let him know and I will pack a bag for me and Carson" she says. "Okay, I will head over and get you guys as soon as I can"  tell her. "Okay, see you soon then clary" she says. I can't believe they are coming home. My family is coming home. I go out of the castle and go through a portal.

I end up back in New York. I'm in front of moms house. I go to the front door and knock on it. Mom opens it. "Come in, Carson is still asleep. I don't want to wake him up until its time to go" she tells me. "What time is it" I ask. "It's 6 in the morning" she says. "Its almost noon back home" I tell her. "I just called Jem. He is packing a bag and bringing Logan over" she says. "As soon as they get here we can go back to Idris" I tell her. She eats an apple and a granola bar. "I think it might be a good idea to leave Carson, Logan, Emily and Braxton at the castle while the four of us are seeing them again" she says. "That's probably a good idea" I tell her, "I want Braxton to meet his daddy but I think its probably best for him to meet Jace when he's not just come back from a war. When he's not scratched up and bruised." "Yeah" she agrees with me.

At 7:00 a car comes pulling down the driveway. "Can you let them in? I'm going to go wake Carson up and go get him dressed and ready to go" she tells me. "Yeah I got it" I tell her. She goes upstairs. a minute later there is a knock on the front door. I open it and let Jem, Emily  and Logan inside. "What's going on Clary" seven year old Logan asks. "You guys are going to the castle for a few days" I tell him. "But why do I have to get up early" he asks. I squat down to his level. "Can I tell you something" I ask him. He nods. "I'm trying to bring your momma home. Don't hold me to it just yet but I'm trying" I tell him. He nods smiling. "I have someone for you to meet" I tell him. "Who" she asks. "You'll see when you get there" I tell him. Mom comes down holding a sleepy Carson. "Clary? What's going on" Carson asks rubbing his eyes. "You guys are going to stay at the castle for a little while" I tell him. We all go outside and I open a portal. I go through behind them and close it.

We all go in he castle. "Go set your stuff down in your rooms and I will see if thy are back yet" I tell them. "Okay" mom says and I go find josten still in his office. "Are they back" I ask him. "I believe so but they are with the silent brothers. I'd give them about an hour" he tells me. "Thanks" I say.

I go back inside and find mom. "Do you want to eat first before we head over to the hospital" I ask. "Yeah sure. That way we can give them some time to have a break and get checked up on" she says. "Okay, I will go tell Jem what we are going to do" I tell her. "Okay, who's gonna take care of Carson, Logan and Braxton while we are at the hospital" she asks. "Charlotte and Christopher. Alice will be coming with us so she can't take care of them. Charlotte has been taking care of Braxton since he was born and Christopher has been taking care of him since Braxton was 8 months old" I tell her. "Okay then. I want to see him. I haven't seen him since he was a baby" she tells me. "I will bring him to lunch. I want Jem, Logan and Carson to meet him too. I've got to find him. I left him with Alice before I went to get you guys" I tell her. "Oh okay. I will get Carson and meet you guys at the dining hall" she says. "Okay, I'm going to go let Jem know then go get Braxton" I tell her.

I find Jem and Carson in Carson's room. "We are going to eat first before we leave is that okay" I ask him. "That's fine" he says. "Okay, I'm going to go tell Alice. Go on to the dining room and I will be right there" I tell him. "Okay, come on Logan and Emily" he says. I go find Alice. She is outside with Braxton playing in the grass. "Hey, we are all going to eat lunch then go see them" I tell her. "Okay, am I going to eat with you guys then" she asks. "Yeah, we are going to go see them right after" I tell her. "Okay then let's eat" she says. "Come on Braxton, lunch time" I call he runs up to me. "Can Aunt Alice come" he asks. "Yeah" I tell him. The three of us go to lunch.

"Clary, who's that" Jem asks seeing my son. "Meet my son Braxton. Braxton, this is Jem, Logan, emily and your uncle Carson" I tell them all. "Hi nana" Braxton says when he sees mom. He has called her that since he could first talk. He has heard us talk about Carson but he hasn't met him yet. "Hi Braxton" mom says. He sits down and we all have lunch. "How old are you" Jem asks. "Dis many" Braxton says and holds up two fingers. I pull up the third finger. "I dis many" Braxton says. "Three? You're a big boy now aren't you" Jem asks. "Yep" Braxton says.

"I can't believe she surrendered" Jem says. "I can't either. I'm just glad she did so they can come home" I say. "Who's coming home mommy" Braxton asks. "The rest of our family is finally coming home" I tell him. "Where'd they go" he asks. "They were captured by heffalumps and woozles. We weren't sure if they would ever come back" I say. Carson and Braxton look scared. Mom busts out laughing. I mean I couldn't tell a three and four year old they went off to war, they wouldn't know what that means. Jem just looks confused. I guess he hasn't learned the ways of whinnie the pooh. "Are they back from the heffalumps and woozles" Carson asks looking scared. "Yes bud, four of us are going to make sure they came home okay" I tell him. "Wait was daddy there" he asks. "Yeah, your daddy was captured by the heffqlumps and the woozles. He's finally getting to come back now" I say. "Oh good" he says. "What about my daddy" Braxton asks. "Yeah he was taken too. We have to go save them though" I tell Braxton. "Oh no! Daddy needs to come home Braxton exclaims.

After lunch I take Braxton to his room. "I need you to take your nap for a little while. If I am still gone when you wake up I need you to stay with Charlotte or Christopher" I tell him. "Okay mommy. Go save daddy" he says. "I will, I will bring him home" I tell him. "Okay, I love you mommy" he says. I smile. "I love you too Braxton. Play with Uncle Carson when you wake up" I tell him. "Okay mommy" he says. "I will see you when I get back" I tell him.

I leave his room and see mom leave Carsons room. "Carson needed his nap too" she says. "Okay" I say. Jem comes out of Logans room. "He agreed to play with his toys until Carson, Braxton and Emily woke up to play with them" Jem tells us. "I need to go let Charlotte and Christopher know that they need to watch four kids and not just one" I tell them. "Okay, are we going to walk there or ride the horses there" Jem asks. "Whichever one is fine with me. What do you want to do mom" I ask. "Lets ride the horses over to the hospital, otherwise it will be a long walk" mom says. "Okay, I will let Charlotte and Christopher know and I will go get Alice. Go pick out what horse you want to ride down at the barn" I tell them.

I go find charlotte and Christopher walking to the dining room. "I need you guys to watch Carson, Logan, Emily and Braxton while I am gone. I have somewhere I need to be for a little while" I tell them. "Yes ma'am" Christopher says. "Thank you guys. I've got to go get Alice and leave" I tell them. I find Alice. "Lets go" I tell her. We walk quickly down to the barn and I get autumn ready while she gets scout ready. Mom and Jem have someone get the horses they are riding ready for them. When we all finish we get on and ride over to the hospital on the other side of Alicante.

I walk in and go to the front desk. "Your family is all on the top floor. We made sure to keep them together for you. The silent brothers just left them" the lady tells us. We hurry up 12 flights of stairs. When we open the door they are all there. Its a large room with a bunch of hospital beds.

When the door shuts behind us they all look over at us. Alice runs and jumps in Jonathans arms first. I look around for jace then I run to him. He wraps his arms around me and we don't leave each others embrace. "I missed you so much" I say. I feel tears fall down my face. "I missed you so much too" he says. I feel him kiss the side of my head but he keeps hugging me. I never want to let go. "I'm so happy to have you back and have this whole thing over with" I say. He finally lets go but makes sure to keep me close by and I am not complaining. I hug Simon and Izzy next. I'm glad to have my best friend back and alive, Izzy too. "I didn't see Robert on the list of the ones alive" I say. "He was killed a while back" Izzy says. "Magnus, where's my hug" I ask. We hug. I missed him and Alec too. They are all bruised and cut up but its nothing that wont heal.

I see mom on the floor petting a wolf laying on the ground on a bunch of blankets. Luke. "What happened" I ask "It was right before the seelie queen surrendered. A faerie threw a silver knife and hit him in the side. The silent brothers don't want him to shift back until they are able to heal him and get the silver out" Alec tells me. "Oh" I say. I hear him whine. "Have they done anything yet" I ask. "They have tried but its harder than they thought it was going to be so they are going to take him in a little while and try again" Alec says. Mom pets his fur.

"Clary the baby" Izzy says. "The baby made it the two of us made sure it would" Alice says. "Is it a boy or girl" Alec asks. "A boy" I say. "He looks like a mixture between clary and Jace" Jem says. "Whats his name" Magnus asks. "Braxton. Braxton James Herondale" I tell them. "I've told him about all of you. He knows about Jace the most" I tell them. "I would hope so. Jace is his dad and all" Simon says. "How old is he" Izzy asks. "He's three. He is back at the castle with Emily, Carson and Logan. As soon as you guys get released we can all go to the castle" I tell them. "Can't you just release us" Izzy asks. "I don't want to. I want the hospital to say you all are fine and release you. If I do it and something is wrong it would be my fault" I say. "But we are fine" Alec says. "I see that but I can't be too careful" I say.

A silent brother comes in the room and goes over to where Luke is laying on the floor. "Can I come? I can help" mom asks. I know she is worried. It's quiet. They both pick up the blanket he's lying on and leave the room. I hope the silent brothers can help him.

Jocelyn POV

We carry him to a little room a floor down from the others. We lie him on a little exam bed. Luke is breathing hard. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or not. "Hold him still. I'm going to cut the fur and attempt to cut the skin so I can remove the silver" the silent brother tells me. "Isn't there any easier way to do it" I ask. "I wish there was" he says

He cuts the fur on part of his left side with a knife. He yelps and tries to bite us. "Lucian Graymark you stop" I say sternly. He looks at me. "Do you want to see Carson again and finally leave here" I ask. He whimpers. "I know it hurts but let them get the silver out and you can shift back and we can go see Carson okay. I'm right here" I say. I pet his fur and the silent brother tries to get the silver out. "I can't. It won't move. It's stuck in the bone" the silent brother tells me. He tries again to get it out and gets the same result.

The door opens and sister Cleophas comes in. "A few of us came to help" she says. She comes up to us. "Is this" she asks looking at her son. "Yeah, please help" I ask. She looks at the silent brother. "What happened" she asks him. After a few minutes she nods and she tries to get the silver out. With a big pull she pulls her hand from his side with a sharp piece of silver in between her long fingers. He yelps. They pour something over where they cut his skin. He yelps and screams. I guess whatever they are porting over the wound hurts terribly. My poor Luke. "It will close up within a minute. He will be just fine" sister Cleophas says. "Thank you" I say. "Of course. Let me know if you need anything else. I will be around here all day helping and healing" she says and leaves. I have seen several iron sisters throughout the hour I have been here at the hospital. "He can shift back in a few hours" the silent brother tells me. "Okay" I say. The silent brother leave the room.

I see the cut start to close. I pet his fur. "Go to sleep. When you wake up you can shift back" I tell him. He looks up at me. I sit down next to him and he lies his head in my lap. He falls asleep to me petting him. I'm so thankful he's going to be okay. I'm glad his mom came and saw him again. She hasn't seen him since he was really little. I know she must miss him deep down.

A while later he wakes up. "I'm glad you're going to be okay" I say. He nudges my hand and I pet him again. "You want to try and shift back" I ask. He looks at me and I see his long tail wag and hit the bed. "I will go find you some clothes and then you can shift back" I tell him. He gets up and off the bed. He stretches. "Be careful. I will be back" I tell him.

I leave the room and go find a nurse. "I need some clothes please" I ask. She brings me to a room full of clothes. "These all were donated for when they all came home. Take what you need" she tells me. "Thanks" I say and start looking through the clothes.

I grab what will fit him and walk back to the room I left him in. I set the clothes in the bathroom and let him change in there. "Was that my mom" he asks when he walks out. "Yeah, I'm surprised you remember what she looks like" I say. "I don't really. I was too young when she left. I kept some pictures Amatis had. That's how I was able to recognize her" he says. "Oh. Do you want to meet her? I'm sure she will talk to you" I ask him. He nods. "I'll go find her" I tell him and go look for her.

I find her walking down the hallway on the 10th floor. "Sister Cleophas" I call she stops and looks at me. "Did you want to see him again? He wants to meet you again after all this time" I say. "But why? I left him and his sister. He should be mad at me" she says. "I don't think he is. He just wants to finally meet you. He knew it was you who came and healed him" I say. "Lets go see him then" she says.

We go up to the room he is in. "I'm surprised you asked for me" she says. "I didn't think you would come" he says. "I wanted to meet you for myself too" she says.

"Clary told me you two had your own kid" she says. "Mhm. His name is Carson" Luke says. "When did you talk to Clary" I ask. "When she had the baby, our prince, I was the one who put the protection spell on him. After the silent brother left I stayed back and talked to her" she tells us. "I haven't met him yet" Luke says. "I haven't seen him since he was born" she says. "He's a sweet little boy" I say.

"I'm glad I actually get to see you and talk to you again. My boy is all grown up" she says. "I'm glad I get to meet you an talk to you. Its been so long" Luke says. "It has. I'm glad you two stayed friends and eventually got married after all these years" his mother says. "Us too" I say.

"How old was I when you left" Luke asks her. "Seven years old. Too young to know really what was going on. I still loved and still love both you and your sister. I know she is gone but I still love the both of you" she says. "I understand and I still love you too, even after all this time" he says. (I have no idea how old they were when she left so I'm just coming up with an age here)

They talk for a little while longer then they hug and she leaves. I'm glad I could see her again and Luke could see his mom again. "Lets go see the others, clary will be happy to see you're okay" I say. He hugs me. "I missed you so much" he says. I hug him back "I missed you too. So did carson. I'm glad to have you back, I know carson will be too" I say. "Does he know I'm back" Luke asks. "No, he doesn't know I'm here. He just knows we left the castle to go get you guys. Clary came up with a story that Carson and Braxton would understand. Logan didn't get it but Carson and Braxton sure did" I tell him. "What was the story" he asks. "That you all were captured by heffalumps and woozles and we were going to go save you all. The two boys looked so scared" I tell him. He starts laughing. "Wow, I'm glad that didn't happen. Those things are colorful and scary" he says. "If you say so. Lets go see the others" I say.

We go back up to the 12th floor and see everyone still in here. Clary runs and hugs Luke. "I'm so glad you're okay" she says. "I'm okay, promise" he says and hugs her back. "The hospital just released us. We were waiting for you two" Isabelle says. "Lets go see the boys and Emily" Jem says. I nod and we all leave the hospital and head back to the castle.

Clary POV

When we all get to the castle its just time for dinner. "Head on to dinning room and I will go get the kids" I say. They head in the direction of the dining room and find the boys in Braxtons room with Charlotte and Christopher and Emily. "Mommy" Braxton says happily. "Hi guys, lets go to dinner" I say. "I have some people I want you to meet Braxton, okay" I tell him" Okay mommy" he says. "Lets go boys and girl. Thank you Charlotte and Christopher. I hope they didn't cause you any trouble" I say. "None at all. They just played" Christopher says. "That's good. You two have a good night" I say. The kids and I leave Braxtons room and go to the dinning room.

"Daddy" Carson says with a huge smile when he sees Luke. Luke bends down and catches Carson as he runs to him. "Momma" Logan says and runs up to Tessa and she catches her as he runs to him. Emily runs up to her too. Carson and logan hold on to them for dear life. I completely understand. I don't want to ever be away from Jace ever again after not seeing him for three years. Braxton just keeps holding my hand. He keeps looking right at Jace. He knows who he is. He has seen pictures and heard stories of Jace. Braxton just looks cautious. He looks like he doesn't know what to do in this situation.

I go sit down and Braxton sits beside me in his chair. "Everyone I want you to meet my son Braxton James. Braxton this is Tessa, your uncle Simon, aunt Isabelle, Uncle Alec and Uncle Magnus. Of course you know your aunt Alice and that's your uncle Jonathan" I tell him showing who everyone is. "Do you know who that is" I ask pointing to Jace. "That's daddy" he says smiling. "That's right" I tell him. The servants bring us our food and leave us all alone.

"So whats going to happen to Grace" alec asks. "Whos that" Braxton asks. "Your older sister" jace tells him. "Where is she" Braxton asks. "She went away for a while, but she can finally come home now" I tell him. "Oh" he says. Jace looks at the others. "We will bring her back. Probably wait a couple of weeks then go get her" he says.

"Do you know if the boys are okay" Alec asks me. "They are fine. Maryse has been taking good care of them. I've gone to check on them a few times already this year" I tell him. "Okay good" he says.

"If you guys want to stay here for the night you can or you can go back to your own houses. Its up to you" I tell them. "I want to stay here" Izzy says. Simon, Alec and Magnus agree with her that they want to stay here for the night. Mom, Luke, Tessa and Jem I guess are staying too instead of going on back to New York. "I think we are going to go back home. We will come back tomorrow" Jonathan says. "That's fine. Whatever you two want to do" I say. "Don't go Jo Jo, you just got back" Carson says. "I will be back in the morning buddy" Jonathan tells our baby brother. "Chance is still here in the barn if you want to take him back to your house" I tell my older brother. "Okay, thanks" Jonathan says.

"He is so cute clary" Simon says looking at Braxton says. "Thanks" I say. I look over and Braxton has mashed potatoes all over his face. Mashed potatoes is the side with the chicken marsala the cooks made for dinner. I grab a napkin and wipe his face. "No mommy" he says and tries to turn his head away from me. I manage to get the mashed potatoes off his face.

"I'm sure you guys will be happy to sleep in a bed again and eat real food" I say. "Oh yeah. It's much better than sleeping on the floor and eating rice three meals a day" Jace says. "I can imagine" I say.

After dinner Jonathan and Alice head over to their house and I spend time with the others who were gone. After a while everyone heads to their own rooms for bed.

I put Braxton to bed. "Is daddy home to stay" Braxton asks. "Yes Braxton. The others you met today are staying too. They may go back to their own houses but they are here to stay" I tell him. "Good. I like them" he says. "I knew you would. They like you too" I tell him. "Can you read me a story" he asks. He grabs the big Winnie the pooh book. I read a story from it to him. "I love you mommy" he says. "I love you too Braxton. Goodnight" I say. "Goodnight mommy" he says. I kiss his head and leave his room.

I head up to my room and see Jace already up here. I get ready for bed and join Jace in the bed. "I can't believe I have a son. You gave me a son" Jace says smiling at me. "We have a son. I know he likes all of you. I would always tell him stories about you and show him pictures of you. That's how he was able to recognize you over the others" I tell him.

"I missed you so much" he says. "I missed you so much too" I say. "I'm back now and I will never leave again. We can bring Grace home and our family will finally be whole" he says. "Yes it will" I say.

He wraps his arms and wings around me. I lay my head down and we just cuddle together. "Braxton has wings too. They are black. He doesn't know how to use them yet but he knows he has them" I tell Jace. "I will teach him" Jace says. "Okay, I know he will like that" I tell him.

"Alice told the cooks we were going to have breakfast at 9:30 instead of 8:15 tomorrow" I tell him. "Sounds good" he says.

After a few minutes of cuddling the door opens a little. "Mommy" I hear my three year old sons voice say. I sit up and see Braxton at the door. "Close the door and come here Braxton" I say. He does what I say and comes over to my side of the bed. "What's wrong buddy " I ask. He just looks at us. "Whats wrong Braxton" I ask. "I want to sleep with daddy too" he says looking past me at Jace. I smile and pick him up. I set him down in between me and Jace. "Hi daddy" Braxton says. "Hi Braxton" Jace says. I can see the love in Jaces eyes when he looks at Braxton. "I've got wings too daddy" Braxton says touching Jaces wings. "That's what your mommy was just telling me. I can teach you how to use them and we can go fly sometime" Jace says. "Okay" Braxton says. "Go to sleep Braxton. We will all be here in the morning" Jace says. "Okay daddy" Braxton says and we all go to sleep.
