Chapter 10: Staying the night.
Meliron POV:
I was in. They had accepted me as part of their social group. Seelie queen would be happy about this. All I had to do was keep dating Isabelle, and then eventually, Seelie could carry on with her plan. I never understood her hatred for the Red head. Apparently, Seelie was working with someone who had a terrible disgust for the Red head, meaning Seelie hated her as well. And if Seelie hated someone, then so did the rest of us.
Clary POV.
After everyone had left, Jace stayed behind. "What are you still doing here Goldilocks? Shouldn't you be I don't know … getting cosy with Aline?" Jace looked at me with a smirk. "Jealous are we Red?" "I am not." "Sure, because that blush on your checks is telling a complete different story." Damn my ability to blush so easily. I grabbed some rubbish and chucked it into a black plastic bag. After I had let Simon in, Jace had sat down on the floor next to me. This sparked a rivalry between him and Simon. Let's just say things did not end well. I walked to the kitchen, Jace close behind me. "Don't you have a room to go to?" "Sure I do, but if you hadn't noticed, my brother, went to get cosy with Magnus in my room. So therefore, Iz, said I could spend the night." "I'm sure she did. Anyways thanks for the help I'm going to bed." Walking up the stairs. "Night Red." I sighed and got ready for bed.
I woke up from the terrible nightmare. Erghhh. I hated them. It reminded me of the pain and suffering I had endeavoured. I shock myself from the nightmare. I shouldn't remember the past. I need to forget. I checked my phone. 3:30. Great. I was never going to be able to get back to sleep. I headed downstairs to get a drink. Walking up to the ceiling-to-glass windows I stared at the view. New York at night was a beautiful site. I mean there was a reason it was called the city that never sleeps. "Aheem." I jumped. And then heard a chuckle. I turned around to see none other than Jace – shirtless, and in a pair of tracksuit bottoms. – "Jesus Christ. You scared me." Jace chuckled, because it was dark, and the only light coming into the room, was from outside. I could just about make out a the lining of face, my eyes travelled down to him abdominals. "Whoa. Now that's what I call a six pack!" I heard him chuckle again. "Did I say that out loud." Jace nodded. Great I really have no filter. There was a moment of silence. "Why so quite Goldilocks? Cat caught your tongue?" he again was silent. Probably thinking of a comeback. "No, I was just wondering, how an angel like you, could still be single?" Walking up to me and tucking a strand of hair behind my ear. Wait did he just call me an angel? Was there something wrong with him? I let out a breath that I hadn't known I was holding. He went to place his hand on my chin, forcing me too look up at him. As he touched me I felt a wave of electricity pass from him to me. What was that about. "What's on your mind Red?" I stared into those golden coloured eyes. I could honestly get lost in them. Just then we heard a loud crash coming from outside.
Mystery POV:
I watched as she carefully, grabbed her drink and walked over to the window. Just then Golden boy – who I hadn't seen before, - walked up behind her. He watched her with a look of love in his eyes. No way. No one was supposed to look at her that way. Only I could. Only I was allowed to think of her that way. Her eyes gleamed when he walked over to her. What was he doing touching her like that. No. He needs to move. Keep his hands away from her. I needed to remove this boy. He was in my way. When Clary had moved to Idris University, I knew it would be the perfect time to strike. But now this Golden boy was in my way. And he was going to pay. Oh boy was he going to pay.
