He wants her in his bedroom. And not in that way โ no girl has ever been in his bedroom that way. It is his private space, his sanctuary. But he wants Clary there. He wants her to see him, the reality of him, not the image he shows the world. He wants to lie down on the bed with her and have her curl into him. He wants to hold her as she breathes softly through the night; to see her as no one else sees her: vulnerable and asleep. To see her and to be seen.
Cassandra ClareIf youโre being punished,โ Clary said, โthen so am I. Because all those things you felt, I felt them too, but we canโtโwe have to stop feeling this way, because itโs our only chance.โ Jaceโs hands were tight at his sides. โOur only chance for what?โ โTo be together at all. Because otherwise we canโt ever be around each other, not even just in the same room, and I canโt stand that. Iโd rather have you in my life even as a brother than not at all
