Clary's POV
I was pulling into the Lightwood's driveway after lunch. Simon and Izzy were out doing something together until later. Lunch was great. Afterwards we decided to go to a movie because we have time to kill. The four of us ended up going to see the new X-Men movie. Jace paid for my movie, which is really nice it just felt like we were on a double date. I mean I wouldn't mind that too much. I mean Jace is attractive with his golden hair. His outfit today added to his attractiveness. Plus he is being nice lately. Ever since Sebastian and I broke up he has been actually acting almost humane. WHAT AM I SAYING? I cannot think like this towards Jace! He is a major player!
"Clary." Jace says making me come back to earth. "If you and Magnus want, you two can just hang out here until Izzy and Simon get back from their date."
"Sure," I sigh, "Magnus does that sound good to you?"
"What? Ohh… uhh… sure! Anything to hang out with Alec longer." Magnus yells from the back seat. He and Alec are 'talking'.
"Looks like that it's settled than!" Jace smile. See, it is times like this that totally make me forget who Jace was 4 months ago. I put the car in park and hop out. I look up at the Lightwood's house. I have already been here several times, but the size of the house will always amaze me. It's like a castle. Not the girly princess kind, but the old timey Victorian kind! I would love to live here one day.
Jace's POV
"So Clarissa what movie would you like to watch?" I ask. Alec and Magnus are up in Alec's room 'hanging out', so it's just Clary and me. I like it. I never get to spend one-on-one time with her. I should not be thinking of her this way. She is way too good for me. Plus she just got out of a really bad relationship.
"Jace, you really do not have to hang out with me. I can entertain myself."
"Clary its fine!" Why can't she understand that I want to do this?
"Whatever. Well I guess we can watch something scary." Clary mumbled.
"Clarissa, you like scary movies?" I gasp.
"Well, yeah. But only when I am in the mood for it." God! This girl keeps surprising me! I thought she was the type of girl who only watched chick flicks.
"Hmm… interesting. How about we watch The Conjuring."
"Oh, I love that one!"
"If you get scared you can always cuddle up with me." I tease. I would actually really love it if she did.
"Shut up Golden Boy." She yells as she throws a pillow at me. Man, did that hurt. She has got a good arm!
Not wanting to anger her anymore, even though she is adorable angry, I sit on the over side of the couch from here. I would much rather sit right next to her though.
Ten minutes in to the movie I declare that we need to make popcorn! I get up and walk into the kitchen. Thank god Max is at a friend's for the night. He would have really ruined the mood.
I look out the window and towards the forest behind our house. Clary would really love it back there. I will take her there when the time is right. It is getting dark. I look at my phone and see that it is already 7!
1 New Message my phone reads.
Hey Jacey. How are things going at
the house with Clary? –Izzy
I think things are going great! But I don't know how
Clary is doing. How is your "date" with Bloodsucker?
-Jace
Bloodsucker? What is that supposed to mean?
And it is going great! But you will soo pay for
forcing us to go out!
He sort of reminds me of a vampire.
And I'm glad you are having fun sis.
Hmm... I wonder if Clary is hungry. I walk back to the living room. I pause the movie.
"JACE!" She bellows, "It was just getting to a good part! What do you want?"
"GOD! Somebody is cranky." I tease. But she just rolls her eyes in the most adorable way. "I was wondering if you were hungry. I can order us pizza."
"Yes please. But don't forget Magnus and Alec. They both love pizza. They want pepperoni." Clary said. How did she know what they liked? She must have seen the wonderment in my face because she explains. "Magnus and Alec are over a lot."
That settled it. We decided on one Pepperoni for Alec and Magnus. Also a cheese with extra cheese for us. 15 minutes later the pizza arrives and I bring Alec and Magnus' upstairs for them. They were both watching a movie and laying together on the couch in Alec's room. They were under a blanket, but from the looks of it, they were both naked. I laughed as I was walking back down stairs. Clary gave me a questioning look but I just waved it away. We settle back on the couch with our popcorn, pizza, and drinks. I sit closer to her than before so it will be easier to share the popcorn. By the time I turn to movie back on it's already 8:30. Clary was right. This is a good part.
Clary's POV
I pull out my phone. It blinks out the time. 9:30. we paused the movie a couple more times to refill our popcorn and our drinks. I wonder what Magnus and Alec are doing. I laugh at that thought. 2 New Messages my phone blinks. Both from Simon.
CLARY! We made it official! (: -Simon
How are things going with you guys?-Simon
YAY! I'm so happy for you two! 3 –Clary
Things are going good over here. Magnus
and Alec up in Alec's room. But me and
jace are watching a movie right now.
I'll see you soon. Luvs (: -Clary
I am really happy for Simon an Izzy. "Simon and Izzy are official now!" I smile.
"That is so great. I just hope he doesn't drink her dry." He responds. I give him a questioning look. "You know… because he is a vampire." He laughs
Brr… It's getting cold. Jace must agree because he gets up and picks up the blanket from the ground in front of the TV. Damn… His butt looks amazing in those jeans! How have I never noticed his butt before? I mean I have notice his rock hard abs and those cheek bones. What am I saying? I sound like a dude right now! Plus it's Jace Herondale. He would never even give me a second glance, or even a first. The only reason he is doing this because he feels bad that I would otherwise be sitting around all alone.
He sits down on the other side of the couch and wraps the blanket around himself. I gasp!
"What?" he asks looking at me with a questioning look.
"I…I… never mind." I didn't realize I gasped aloud.
"No Clary, what's wrong?"
"It's just… I cold too." I mumble. He chuckles to himself.
"Come here."
"What?" I burst out.
"Come here. I am cold too. That doesn't mean we can't share though." He clarified. I slid over next to him. He pulled the blanket over me and slid his arm around my shoulder with grace. My shoulders burned where our skin made contact. I can't believe this is happening! I can feel my heat speed up with joy. Crap. I think I like Jace…
