Wow, look at me writing fanfic again. Sorry that the last two chapters were pretty short. (lol I've been rereading this story, and my writing is so cringy XD)
Simon POV
Izzy (and me, but mostly Izzy) pulled us into the library after school.
"So it's official that Clary likes Jace," I tell Team Clace, after telling the story of how Clary confessed her feelings for Jace to him and Izzy.
"I spoke to someone else that wants Clace too," Izzy says.
"Who? Have you invited her to the meetings?" Julian says.
"We officially have Kaelie on our side. She knows," Izzy says.
"WHAT?!" We all chorus, surprised.
"Yep, she's coming to our meetings now. She and I have decided to take Clace slow. We need to make them both jealous. In fact, look here she comes." Izzy explains. Izzy dramatically presents Kaelie.
Kaelie walks through the door of the library. "Hey," she says shyly.
We all stare at her, astonished. I had no idea she'd be willing to give up Jace for someone- especially Clary. Kaelie wasn't a big fan of Clary even though they were on the same cheer team.
"Yep, I'm on your team now," she says and sits down next to Helen and Aline. They look happy and surprised to see her. "So Izzy and I have an idea. We want Jace to notice Clary at homecoming." Kaelie explains. "Which is two days."
"So you break up with him?" Bat asks Kaelie.
"You're willing to give up going to Homecoming with Jace, who by the way is your boyfriend and lifelong crush?" Maia asks surprised.
Kaelie grins. "I'm willing to make that sacrifice."
Everyone, including me, looks astonished.
"Wow, Kae," Aline says.
"So the plan is that Clary is going to homecoming. She might need persuading, so Jon you can do that. You're her brother," Izzy starts. "Kaelie, would you like a date to go to homecoming?"
"I already am planning to ask someone. He knows what we're doing already," Kaelie says. "It's Mark Blackthorn."
"Good. This is so Kaelie isn't lonely at homecoming. Here's the plan: Clary is going to be lonely at homecoming. Kaelie will tip Jace off at the beginning, by pointing about how nice Clary looks or something. Kaelie can do this by making fun of Clary or something like that. Jace will probably look at her with interest or something. Kaelie can then come up and scream at Jace at how he's always liked her. Kaelie, maybe say something about how he used you? I don't know. Then break up with him. Then he'll go ask Clary to dance. She'll probably say yes." Izzy explains.
"What about after that? Where's the guarantee that they'll be a couple in the end?" Bat asks.
"Clary already told Simon and me that she likes Jace," Izzy says. "Jace is... you know Jace. He will most likely still have feelings for her."
"I think we'll have to let it flow naturally after that," Maia says. "I don't think that it's healthy to have a relationship that's forced."
We all nodded, after Homecoming if they didn't like each other in the end, all our hard work would go to waste. I could tell that a lot of the group felt the same way, but it had to be their own decision in the end.
Sorry for the short chapter again ahh! I've been focusing on a few actual writing projects that I'm trying to get done, so that's why I haven't been active a bunch. (Also I kinda forgot)
