A/N: sorry it's late, but I'm making this (or I'll try) extra long, and then once I get home on Monday I'll be able to write and update normally. Enjoy!
Chapter 12- Thar perfect moment? Ruined.
Jace's POV
Clary must have heard door open, because she gasped and pulled away from me. At first, I was confused, and then I heard the door shut and I looked towards the person who— very much so— interrupted us.
It was Clary's mom.
"Clary." She said, "care to tell me, who this is?" She raised an eyebrow, "or were you hiding this boyfriend all along from me, you know how I feel about that Clary and-" she got cut off by Clary,
"He's not my boyfriend mom, he, funnily enough is Sebastian's best friend, who drove me home, I invited him in to watch a movie, is that so hard to believe." She practically screamed, "in fact, he already has a girlfriend, okay?" By this time she had stood up and she was fuming.
It wasn't until I realised, that Clary's mom looked exactly like Clary, which is how I knew in the first place, it was her mom.
That's when I stepped in.
"It was my fault, I shouldn't have came in, I just wanted to see your house." I said, "I'm Jace by the way."
"Jocelyn." Clary's mom— Jocelyn— said.
Clary looked at me, with an apologetic look.
"Well I should get going. I'll see you tomorrow Clary."
She nodded, "yeah..." I went to walk out of the door and just as I went to reach for the door handle, the door opened.
And behind it, was Sebastian.
"What are you doing here?" Was the first thing he said, 'of course you'd say that' I thought.
"I was just about to leave, Clary invited me in, after I dropped her here." He raised his eyebrow,
"She did, did she?" He asked, looking past me and to Clary.
"It was my fault though." I said, "I encouraged her."
"No you didn't." Clary said, "I invited him in, let him watch a chick flick and we ended up almost kissing when the movie was half done." She explained, "so deal with it Sebastian, I don't care if Jace Wayland is a heartbreaker, he's perfect and gorgeous and probably a really good kisser, so just deal with it!" She groaned and ran upstairs into her room, just as I sighed and decided to leave.
"You're not going anywhere." I turned around to see Sebastian looking at me,
"Why not, you want me out, don't you?" I asked.
"Of course I do, but it's clear Clary doesn't, so just go to her and see if she's okay." He said.
So I went upstairs, and knocked on the door.
"If it's you mom or it's Sebastian, leave me alone!" She shouted, though it was very muffled.
"Clary, it's me, Jace."
"Jace left." Was all she said.
"No I didn't Clary, I'm here, I promise it's me and no one else, okay?" After a moment, she said.
"Okay."
"So can I come in?" I asked.
"Yeah," she replied, before I heard footsteps and then the door opening.
I walked inside and walked with her to her bed.
"You okay?" I asked.
"Yeah I'm fine, I'm sorry about earlier, I just said that to shut him up I didn't mean any of it."
"Oh." I replied.
Oh
"Okay." I said, I started to walk out when she reached out and grabbed my arm.
"Wait!" She said, "don't go."
"Why shouldn't I?" I asked.
"Because I lied."
I know
"Yeah, you did." I said coldly.
She groaned, "no, I lied when I said I didn't mean any of it."
"Oh." I said again.
Oh
"So you meant it?" I asked, she only nodded.
That's when I crashed my lips to hers. I felt her smile through the kiss and wrap her arms around my neck, as I wrapped my arms around her waist.
The kiss didn't last long because the door opened.
And that perfect moment? Ruined.
And guess who opened the door? Sebastian.
'Just great!' I thought.
"Hi Sebastian," clary said, breathlessly as she pulled her arms away from my neck and I did the same with my arms that were around her waist.
"Again, what the hell is going on?" Sebastian asked.
"Well... Um... We were just..." Clary stuttered.
"Kissing?" Sebastian asked, "yeah, I could see that."
"It was nothing serious, we were just kissing." She said.
"How swiftly you dismissed our love." I said, she rolled her eyes, ignoring me and looked at Sebastian,
"Can you please leave?" She asked. He scoffed,
"No, but Jace can leave." He said. She faked a laugh,
"No you can leave. Now, Get Out!" She said, glaring at him.
"Fine! Do what you want! But if you get your heartbroken by him, it's your fault, it's not like I didn't warn you!" He said, growling before he left the room and Clary slammed the door behind him, sliding down it as she leaned on it.
I sat down next to her and rubbed her shoulder,
"Sorry about him, always walks in at the wrong time." She said, I chuckled.
"Don't worry about it, I'm the one that kissed you, so it's my fault." I replied, she giggled,
"So I can blame you for it then?" She teased.
"Yep! You can." I said.
"Well then, that's good." She said, "because at least I can do this." Then she leaned in and kissed me gently, I kissed back and smiled through the kiss.
I slowly pulled back, "well that was fun." I said, she nodded,
"Definitely." She replied and kissed me again.
And this time I deepened it, only to be interrupted by a phone ringing. It was mine.
Just my luck
That perfect moment? Ruined. Again.
I waved it off and mumbled,
"Just ignore it." She shook her head,
"Just answer it, might be important." She replied.
If it was, they wouldn't be calling when I'm in the middle of kissing a gorgeous girl like you. I thought.
So I picked it up.
"Hello?"
"Jace it's Alec, something's happened, you need to come back to the house ASAP."
"What do you mean?"
"Just come back to the house and I'll explain."
And with that, he hung up.
A/N: hope you enjoyed, sorry about the cliffhanger, again, I seem to be doing that a lot lately... Anyway I'll update ASAP and I'll see you in the next chapter, bye!
