So sorry it's been so long since I updated, school got on top of me, exam year and everything, how many people know what GCSEs are? Pugh SCARY! Basically intense exams that basically determine what I can do in the future... But I'm in a car now on about a three hour journey, so I got a bit of time on my hands.
Aline was clawing Jace's arm protectively, staking her claim, letting all the girls in the room know he was hers, so they better keep their hands off . She was running her long scarlet nails up and down his forearm. "Jacey? What you doing this afternoon? You wanna go to the beach? Kaelie's going, but I want to take you, I want to show you off." She said smiling.
"Sorry baby, I'd love to, but it's Wednesday, I have to tutor Andy." He smiled his fake smile. If he couldn't use Andy as an excuse, he would have just come up with something else to get out of it.
"Awww but Jacey we never do anything together anymore! Please, just make an excuse. It's not fair!"
"Sorry babe but I don't want to fail, and if I ditch Andy I just might." Jace was always good at lying. In fact, Ms Bronson had come to him this morning to say he didn't have to tutor Andy if he didn't want to, that it was unfair, she had forced it on him. Jace had told her he didn't mind. He was too curious about Andy now. There was something about her; he wanted to be the one to figure her out. He wanted to find her. She was so different, she didn't care about pretty clothes and make-up, but she still came off beautiful, even without these materialistic things. "We'll do something tomorrow, kay babe?"
"Awww…! Please Jacey, Kaelie will make fun if you don't turn up, she'll say you ditched me." Aline's pitch had turned to whining.
"I'm sure you can cope for one day, I have to go now. I'll see you tomorrow." He walked away down the corridor to where Andy was waiting for him.
Andy heard the entire conversation between Jace and his 'girlfriend', and she didn't understand. Did they even like each other? What was the point?
"Why are you with her anyway? She's so- so…" Jace chuckled and moved to sit on the opposite bench to her.
"She's hot." He said shrugging his shoulders. "What else is there?"
"What else is there? How about friendship? Have you got friends just because they're cool? Just because they make you feel like you fit in?"
"I don't know why you're talking about; do you even have any friends?" Her eyes rose at this comment and Jace regretted it, would she get upset?
"No, but there's no one at this school I trust. That's what a friend is to me. Someone I can trust everything about me with and could tell them something horrible about myself and still trust them to be there for me, do you have any like friends that?" He contemplated that question for a moment.
"Yes, Alec. I guess he's sort of like my brother too though. His parents adopted me when I was 10 so… I trust him, and his little sister Izzy."
"Okay, he's the one that's with Magnus right? When was the last time you conversed inside school? If people saw you with him they would laugh right? He's not cool enough? But friends are supposed to care no matter what and if your school friends can't take that your best friend is gay then they're stupid mindless idiots and not really your friends. They should accept you no matter what. You know what? On closer examination, I've decided you're not as big of an asshat as you pretend to be. You should show this side more often, it's nice."
"Shhh- I have a reputation to uphold, my friends might disown me." Clary was the one chuckling now, but then she was serious.
"You could do better."
Okay so I left it there, will update hopefully next week so please review it makes my day, also I'm kind of interested to see what kind of people read my stories, so if you don't mind it would be really useful if you could pm me a couple of details. Nothing explicit just vague things like your country, and maybe county or region and your age and some of the things you're interested in. Nothing major but if you had time that would be really useful to me so please do if you can.
