Hello! Sorry for not updating! I've had to study for my final exams, so I haven't had time to write! In addition, I was having problems with my account, and it would wouldn't let me publish the chapter!
I know you guys want to know what happens when Jace sees her for the first time after all those years, but I want to have a little more backstory. I think maybe one or three more chapters after this one and we're going to get to that part!
Also, I know this story may seem like such a downer, but I promise it will have a happy ending…I think… No! I'm kidding, it will have a happy ending, don't worry!
Disclaimer:
I only own the story, not the characters!
Previously on My Lost Heart…
Remembering the good times I had with Jace give me feelings of nostalgia. Yet, I'm happy and grateful that I have them.
Coming back to earth, my parents—it's surprising how easy it is to call them that—come to my side and say, "Welcome to the family, Clary."
Clary's POV
I smile at them and walk with them to my new home. It was beautiful. The garden had lots of varieties of flowers. From afar it may have looked like a rainbow.
The house almost looked castle-like! The things that were out of place were the garage and it had no towers.
There were people waiting outside. They had bright smiles and warm eyes. I felt welcomed instantly. Even I was surprised of my reaction.
Later, I learned that they were the staff that worked in the house. I had a total Annie moment; without the singing. I wondered when Sandy was going to pop up! I had the red hair; that's all I needed! I laughed internally.
Breaking from my reverie, I went inside the house, and looked around.
The living room was huge. With its fireplace and huge plasma TV. The kitchen was big, as well. With the stoves and the oven. The rest of the rooms in the floor were storage rooms, with files and stuff.
Jocelyn was a psychologist; Valentine had his own law firm and they liked to keep their files at home.
On the second floor, there were the bedrooms. Everyone had their bedrooms on that floor. Along with the bedrooms, were a couple bathrooms.
Lastly, on the third floor were Jocelyn's and Valentine's offices, so they could finish their work at home, if they needed to. And there was a playroom for me. It was all technology. It had a Wii, Xbox with a Kinect, a Playstation, and so on.
Luckily, I had done some research back at the orphanage, and knew how some of them work.
I was very happy and did something I had not done since I came with them. I ran to them and hugged them. They were surprised, but hugged me back. I was so grateful for everything they gave me. Jocelyn had become very emotional and had tears in her eyes. I knew they were happy tears so it was okay. They let go and left me to enjoy my playroom.
After a while, I wandered around the rest of the house. I went to a place I hadn't seen yet. I went outside and stared at the gigantic pool on the yard. I remembered I went to a pool on a field trip with the orphanage. Jace and I had so much fun. It's one of the happiest memories I had.
I wish Jace was here with me.
Couple days later…
Jace's POV
I still miss Clary. I feel so lonely. I've made some new friends, but none of them are like Clary.
"Jace, come here! Some people are here to meet you!" Madame Dorothea calls out.
"Coming!" I say back getting up from our tree.
I wonder what this is about.
