disclaimer: I have nothing to do, whatsoever, with the talented Ms. Clare.
I haven't done one of these in a long time. Now let's see, what song to choose, hm.
Alright, I have one.
XOXOXO by The Black Eyed Peas ( I 3 Fergie)
This story is based on the chorus
Baby everywhere I go
I'm not alone
You let me know
Your on my phone
Your in my dreams
Your on my screen
You send me x and o's
X and O's
Hugs and kisses, hugs and kisses, hugs and kisses
X and O's
Hugs and kisses, hugs and kisses, hugs and kisses
X and O's
Jace walked past the library and saw Clary moving oddly. He rushed into the room thinking she was fighting a demon. Then he stopped. It was quiet, and she was dancing? Clary spun around at that moment and Jace could see she had earbuds in her ears.. That was why he didn't hear any music. Without it she was quite funny to watch. He decided to creep up on her and then at the last minute he ducked behind a loveseat. He thought better of surprising her.
After the song ended, she stopped dancing and removed the player and put it down. She went over to the piano and sat down. She played with the keys trying to make a tune with one finger. Finally she had it and she played the same few notes over and over.
Jace sat motionless, he recognized the melody because it was one he had written. When had she heard it? He knew he never played it for her. It was only in his head, he never wrote it down. He peered around the end of the chair and watched her. How curious she made him. Out of nowhere she entered his life and each time she tripped over something that he could relate too, he wondered. How many times can this happen? He decided to stand up and walk over to her. She was startled when she looked up.

Jace , the stealthy one, must have entered the room while I sat at the piano. I never heard him enter. Good skills for a hunter. Our eyes met and the world washed away. I stopped playing that tune that never seemed to leave me. Jace sat down next to me and placed his hands on my arms. I leaned into him and he leaned back. We sat together without talking for some time. Then he gave me a hug and sat back. I wonder what he was thinking. I guess if he wanted me to know he would tell me, but maybe after all he went through with Valentine he is broken. He has stopped chasing girls, he hangs out close to the Institute. No more clubbing. He'll tell me when he's ready.
What about me. When do I open up to him? I'm not sure. I've never opened up to anyone for real. I think I love him. I feel so strongly for him, probably stronger then he would ever want me to be attached to any one person, but I can't help it. Maybe it is just transference because of my mother being in that coma. I need someone and he has made himself available. If I am delusional, then let me go completely insane. Don't hold me back, I want to run my fingers through his hair, feel his breath on my skin, have proof that I am living and breathing by having him take my breath away. For in that moment, when our two hearts beat in sync, is the closest I will find to my own beginning.
Should I continue?
