Clary'ѕ p.o.v:

"See you soon, Emma."

"Bye Clary."

I brought my phone down from ear and turned it off.

"Jace, get ready because we are meeting Emma at the cafe down the street."

Emma was up to visit us in New York, so we decided to go and eat some lunch with her.

"Ok, what time?" Jace ran his fingers through my red hair.

"Like in a half an hour." I delicately kissed Jace's cheek and set off to get changed.

25 minutes later, Jace and I were out the door, heading to the cafe.

"Clary, you look nice." Jace's eyes searched myself, from my toes up to my hair.

"Thanks, and I could say the same for you." Jace was wearing a simple plaid shirt with shiny shoes. His golden hair as combed through nicely, looking handsome as ever. And his eyes.
By the angel,  I could look at them all day long.
His twinkling golden eyes were filled with excitement, and hapiness-emotions that always seemed to be in Jace's eyes when I was near.

"But seriously Clary, you look stunning. Maybe even prettier than me." Jace teased.

While Jace was fancied up, I dressed simple. I was wearing an orange tank top with runes drawn over them. I used a paintbrush to draw the runes, and I did them ever so faintly so only Shadowhunters would notice them.
My shorts were just jean shorts, but they looked great with my sunset orange shirt.

"Come on," I laced my fingers around Jace's, "let's start walking."

As we took each step, something pulled us closer, and soon enough, we were tightly squeezed together. I rested me head on his broad shoulders as we arrived at the entrance of the cafe.
Emma wasn't there yet, so we patiently waited while chatting quietly.

"Are you excited?" Jace whispered in my ear.

"Yeah. I felt like I haven't seen Emma in ages." I exclaimed.

"Well its good you finally get to so her. You two are becoming good friends." Jace winked at me, making me jitter with laughter.

"Jace, you are truly one of a kind."

Quickly, Jace pulled me closer into him(even though we were already close to each other), and kissed me fiercely on my lips. I kissed back with the same fierceness. My lips melted into a gooey softness, it was always like that when I kissed jace. We pulled away from each other as we heard Emma's voice.

"Hi Clary, and Jace." Emma walked up to us. A figure came from behind Emma, showing his face as he came into view.

"Hi. Nice to see you both." Julian nodded.

"I didn't know you brought Julian,  Emma! This is a great surprise! I haven't seen both of you since a long time." I smiled at Emma and Julian.

"Well, we are parabatai. If you just expect me, then you must expect Jules too."

"Its nice to see that its not just girls, there is finally a boy!" Jace beamed, clearly excited.

"Yes, it does feel good." Julian took Emma's hand as she began to speak.

"But partially why I brought Jules, other than he's my parabatai, is to tell you guys something. No one else, well basically no one else, knows a big secret that we are about to tell you." Emma's eyes went from having fun to dead cold serious.
"Please don't tell anyone yet, or else I will cut your throats open." Emma softened at the last part, we know she was joking about cutting our throats out.

"So, me and Julian, well, we kissed... And we are kind of finding that we love each other, like not in a  parabatai way."

"Just to get this clear, you guys are in love? Is that what you're saying?" Jace asked.

"Well, pretty much." Julian's face got red while Emma's stayed the same.

"I don't know what to think of this. Its not like a bad thing, its just I don't think you are supposed to be in love. But I have no problem with that. By the angel, me and jace were in love when we thought we were siblings! That is clearly worse than what you too have. And I promise on Angel Raziel that me and jace will tell no one. You have our secret."

Julian let out a big sigh of relief and whispered "thank the angel".

"Ok, now that that's over with, would you like to go in the restaurant?" Emma hugged Julian while I kissed Jace again.

"Yeah, I am starving!" Jace shouted.

We walked to the front desk and got ourselves a four person booth.

"Hey, its like a double date!" Emma and Julian both happily said in unison.

We all laughed at that, it was truly a double date.

"Hi, I am your waitress tonight. My name is Keena and I'll be very happy to order what you would like." The waitress, Keena, interrupted our laughter.

"Oh sure." I piped up.

As we went around the table ordering, our waitress left us to wait.

We chatted for a few minutes before it got silent.

"Want to play truth or dare?" Julian's eyes exploded with excitement.

"YES!!" I yelled.

"What is that?" Emma asked in confusion.

"Livvy learned it from some mundane and explained it to me. Its basically where one person asks 'truth or dare' to a person and if that person says truth, you can ask him or her a question. If the person says dare, then you must say a challenge someone must do. A dare could be like to ask the waitress for her number or something like that. So Clary's in, what about you, Emma and Jace?"

"Sounds fun! I'm in."

"I'm in with Blondie." Jace smiled at Emma, knowing she doesn't like to be called Blondie.

"Call me Blondie again, and you won't keep your knee's." We all laughed for a few seconds before focusing back on truth or dare.

"Ok, I'll go first." Julian stated.

"Emma. Truth or dare?"

"Dare!! I'm not a woosie."

"I dare you to... Next time you see Magnus bane, ask him for a makeover."

"Julian Blackthorn, I am going to kill you with my seraph  blade in about two seconds." Emma's eyes blazed with anger about this dare.

"Ok someone go before Emma kills me." Julian blurted out.

"I'll go." Jace volunteered.

"Ok, Clary. Truth or dare?"

"Truth. No just kidding. Dare."

"I dare you to go up that mundane man and ask him if he's seen my mangoes. He'll think you're crazy."

I laughed before walking over to the man.

"Hi, um, do you know where Jaces mangoes are?"

The man stared at me in complete horror.

"Jace herondale?"

My body froze.

"Are you a Shadowhunter?"

The man looked blank again.

"I'll take that as a no. How do you know this name?"

The man didn't answer, he just stared at me.

"Excuse me... How do you that name?"

"Because, because I'm a-"

"Clary, watch out!!" I heard jace scream from behind me.

I dodged as the man fully formed into a demon.

"Holy crap." I slithered backwards as people ran out of the cafe.

"Jace, toss me my seraph blade!" Jace ran towards me, along with Emma and Julian, and tossed me my blade.

We swarmed around the demon, each ready to launch.

And then we did.

We sprang from all sides the demon, stabbing our seraph blades at the demon. Ichor sprayed over me, burning spots in my clothing.

Soon enough, the demon shrank and we killed it.

I grabbed my stele out of my back pocket and drew irtazes all over Jace, Julian, Emma and myself.

We weren't badly cut up, but some of the demon ichor got on our skin and we needed it to get it off before it infected us.

"Well, I guess that concludes our double date, even though we never even got our food."

We each gave our goodbyes and slowly walked away from the cafe.

As we left, I looked up at the name of the cafe.

Cafe paradise.

"Jace, look at the name of this cafe." He chuckled.

"Well, I guess thats it for cafe disaster."
"Yeah, no food, but good times."

"Lots of good times." We were back to our original form, tightly together, coiled up with each other.

We were like a puzzle.
One that has never been solved.
