OMG i love you all, so you amazing people here is chapter 3 Two sides of a Coin

Clary's POV

I woke up to the sound of pits and pans crashing. Clary jumped out of bed and ran to the next room. I found Jace standing wide eyed in the small kitchen, I ran to him and looked at him closer.

His eyes were wide and scared, his hands shook and were constantly moving. Up, down, in his hair, squeezing each other. They never stopped.

I sighed and walked over to him, taking his hands I brought him to the small couch and sat next to him. "Jace, hey what were you doing? Have you slept at all?" Jace turned to me. "I was trying to make you breakfast, I couldn't sleep. Been up for hours, i thought of you a lot"

This boy was such a flirt, I shook my head and patted his hands. "Its ok Jace, I can make breakfast, just lay down. Try to get some sleep".

I cleaned up all the pans that had fallen. I looked back at Jace while making pancakes and there he was. Laying there, his face was so peaceful. So untouched by the pain of war and the scars of memories.

When pancakes were done I walked to where Jace was asleep on the couch. I didnt have the heart to wake him so I left them on the coffee table and went to my room to change.

When I got into my room I looked at myself for the first time this morning. My hair was a lions mane of fire with knots running through it, I only had on what I wore to bed which was just a tanktop and small shorts.

I jumped in the shower and quickly scrubbed off pancake batter from my hands and washed my hair.

It was 10:17 when I was completely changed into jeans and a tanktop. When I walked out I found Jace now sitting on the couch with his feet on the coffee table. I put my hands on my hips and looked strait at him.

"Jace get your feet off the coffee table and why isn't your plate in the sink" Jace turned to me with a smirk in his face and stuck his tongue out at me. I stomped over to him and pushed his feet off the table, I swatted him as I grabbed the plate and walked over to put it in the sink.

"Hey Jace i need go out and buy some art supplies, do you want to come with me". Jace jumped up and ran a hand through his hair. "Uhh I guess, I dont know how long will we be out" Jace actually looked nervous.

"Hey Jace Its ok im just going to an art store to pick up a new sketch book. Come on it will be good for you and it will only be like 10 minutes".

Jace sighed and said he was going to change shirts.

~~o0o~~

We were walking down the side walk, Jaces hand in mine. I said he could squeeze my hand when he was nervous and so far he has not stopped squeezing my hand. He watched every single person as they walked by. I felt so bad for him, we arrived at the art store soon and there was luckily only 2 other people in the store.

I quickly grabbed a large sketch pad and walked to the check out station. Jace grabbed my hand as we stood there, squeezing it slightly. The older woman checking us out looked at our hands and smiled.

"aren't you two just the cutest couple" she crooned

I was about to speak up when Jace started talked. "Thanks you, I dont know how I could live without her"

The lady smiled again and i blushed. Jace was such a flirt how could i handle him.

Our walk back to the building was better, Jace only tightened his grip a couple timeso and he was able to keep small talk going but being Jace he added some flirty comments every now and then.

When we got back Jace sat back down on the couch, he turned the tv on and stretched his legs across the couch. I swatted his lega down so I could sit beside him and sketch. As soon as i sat down his legs were back up on me. He gave me the smirk I could only describe as pure Jace and turned back to the tv.

I started free drawing not thinking of what i was drawing until Jace spoke up. "Wow, I never knew something as perfect as me could be transferred to a page but there it is" Suddenly I looked down at my drawing, it was a scene of jace's face with a smirk not so perfect. I couldn't get his jawline right though there was something... Off. How could I fix it, his Jaw line was so sharp, structured, how could something be so.. Perfect

Why couldn't I get this boy out of my mind and why am I so upset about not being able to draw him.
