Please read and review! Whooo!
Recap: "Jace, I think I believe you...but that doesn't mean I forgive you..."
**Jace POV**
I can deal with Clary not forgiving me for what I did because even I know it was stupid and selfish. What I couldn't stand would be if she had not believed me and told me I was a liar. I love Clary and I wish she would forgive me...
"Clary? Would you mind if I stayed here at your place for a couple of days until I return home?"
"That's fine. Did you want something to eat or drink?"
"Um, do you have anything to eat? I'm kind of hungry...or if you want, I can take you out?"
"Ummmm..."
"Clary? What's up?"
"I'm already going out tonight...sorry Jace"
"With who?"
"Will..."
"WILL? Who's Will?"
"I don't know his last name..I just know that his name is Will..."
"Oh ok. Well, I'll just have some food and go to bed, thanks," I said, all formal.
"Jace? Look, I'm sorry. What do you want me to say? You cheated on me...whether you meant it or not..."
"Clary, I was drunk! I'm sorry! I've missed you and its only been a week!"
"Jace...I've missed you as well but I.." BEEP BEEP
"There's Will now..."
"Invite him up, I'd like to meet him..."
Clary went outside to call Will upstairs. While she was gone, I thought about something...I had an aunty and uncle who had a son called Will. I'm pretty sure they didn't move to England though...I knew they left home before I was born but I don't think they came here...it couldn't be THAT Will could it? No...Jace you're just imagining things now..it couldn't be. But...you never know...if it is Will...well all I know about my cousin Will is that he has black hair and blue eyes. That's all I was ever told...oh and that he was a major player...much like yours truly...although I must say that since Clary, I haven't laid eyes on another girl...until Kaelie came along of course but whatever...anyway..here they come now. I wonder if it is Will...
"Jace? I'd like to introduce you to Will"
A/N: Just quickly, I know for all you strict fans out there that Will is actually a great-great-great-great-great-whatever grandfather of Jace, however..that does not work for me because that would be purely disgusting to have Clary dating a guy that old :P So yeah...in my story, Will and Jace are cousins and they are the same age :) Hope you are enjoying the story. Oh and shout out to Reader'sConscious for unintentionally giving me the idea to make them cousins :P
**Clary POV**
Will walked in the door and I saw Jace's eyes almost pop out of his head..I don't know why. Anyway...
"Will. Let me introduce you to Jace..."
"Hello, cousin," Jace said.
"COUSIN?" I screamed
"COUSIN?!" Will yelled. "What makes you think I'm your cousin?"
"Your parents are Edmund and Linette, are they not?"
"How do you know that?"
"My mother always told me that my uncle Edmund and Aunty Linette left home before I was born to move to a different country but I couldn't remember what country it had been...and then Mum told me that I had three cousins. Ella, Will and...and...was it Cecily? She told me that Will had black hair and blue eyes...so I just assumed it must be you. Where's Ella and Cecily?"
"Ella is dead"
"Shit..I'm sorry to hear that."
I could tell that Jace was actually being sincere. Although, I was having a hard time taking this in...I was dating my ex-boyfriend's cousin? What makes you say he's your ex? And what makes you say you're dating Will? Said the little voice in my head...Well? Do you kiss people you're not dating? And besides, Jace cheated on you!" said the other little voice. SHUT UP! I yelled at them in my mind.
"Anyway, she's in a better place now. Cecily is well. But, I must say, my mother never told me about you. She said I had cousins in New York but that was all...hmm..weird. Anyway, what are you doing here?"
"I flew here from New York to see Clary.."
"Dedication..I must say. Anyway, didn't Clary tell you?"
I tried to signal to Will to shut up but to no avail. The only person's attention I got was Jace's.
"Tell me what? And Clary, what in hell are you doing?"
"Clary and I are together now...she says you cheated on her.."
"Wow. Thanks, Clary. For letting me in on the secret...you know It would have been nice if you had told me. I guess I should go to bed. I'm kind of tired. Nice meeting you, Will and see you tomorrow, Clary. Before I go back to New York."
"Jace.."
"It's cool. Forget it. Goodbye."
Jace walked out of the room and I felt terrible. I really did love him but I couldn't just leave Will. I liked him...
"Clary? I can see that you still love him..."
"Will...yeah but I like you as well..."
"Loving is more than liking...I've known you for a week...he's known you for over six months or something like that..."
"Yeah but...anyway. I'll sort this out tomorrow. Let's go"
"Clary. I don't mind if we call off tonight. You need to straighten stuff out with Jace. I'll see you some other time..see ya."
Will walked out my door and I felt almost as bad as I did when Jace left. But the mean part of me just had to admit that I was kind of glad he had left. I had to talk to Jace.
**Jace POV**
When he walked in the door, all I could think was A lot of guys have black hair and blue eyes...Alec does after all...but I just couldn't get it out of my head that he looked exactly like the Will that was described to me..so I decided to test it.
"Hello, cousin," I said.
"COUSIN?" Clary screamed
"COUSIN?!" the guy yelled. "What makes you think I'm your cousin?"
"Your parents are Edmund and Linette, are they not?" I asked.
"How do you know that?" he replied.
"My mother always told me that my uncle Edmund and Aunty Linette left home before I was born to move to a different country but I couldn't remember what country it had been...and then Mum told me that I had three cousins. Ella, Will and...and...was it Cecily? She told me that Will had black hair and blue eyes...so I just assumed it must be you. Where's Ella and Cecily?"
"Ella is dead"
"Shit..I'm sorry to hear that." I said and I meant it.
"Anyway, she's in a better place now. Cecily is well. But, I must say, my mother never told me about you. She said I had cousins in New York but that was all...hmm..weird. Anyway, what are you doing here?"
"I flew here from New York to see Clary.."
"Dedication..I must say. Anyway, didn't Clary tell you?"
I could see Clary waving her arms about like a headless chicken.
"Tell me what? And Clary, what in hell are you doing?" I asked.
"Clary and I are together now...she says you cheated on her.."
"Wow. Thanks, Clary. For letting me in on the secret...you know It would have been nice if you had told me," I said, sarcastically. "I guess I should go to bed. I'm kind of tired. Nice meeting you, Will and see you tomorrow, Clary. Before I go back to New York."
"Jace.."
"It's cool. Forget it. Goodbye."
I walked out and to a room somewhere down the hall. As I walked in, I realised it was Clary's room. I started looking around. At first, all I could see were clothes and make up, which I had no idea why she wore. She was beautiful without it. But anyway, there were also papers and pens everywhere. I picked up one of the papers and saw on it I love him. I don't know why he did it but I love him anyway. I can't decide between him and W- and then the paper was ripped. I realised it must be a piece from a diary or something where she had written her thoughts. I knew I had hurt her and I felt so bad about it but I love her so damn much and I have to make it up to her somehow.
"Jace? What are you doing in my room?"
"I just walked into the first door I found. Where's Will?"
"He left."
"I thought you were going out?"
"We were. He cancelled because he said I had to talk to you. Look, Jace. I love you and I have for a while now and I do forgive you for what you did because I believe that you were drunk. I am still a little upset but I forgive you. And I do like Will but I don't love him. I love you. I just don't know what to do about the situation with Will...?"
"Clary. I will do anything I can to help you, I promise."
