CLARY POV

My birthday started off pretty well.

Isabelle, Simon, Jace, and I, went camping, for a week. We left on the day of my birthday.

After we got the tents and everything set up, we all sat by the campfire and roasted marshmallows. I rested my head against Jace's shoulder, letting the light, autumn breeze run through my hair.

It was all very relaxing. Well, it would have been. But one thought stuck in my mind...one that I knew, I couldn't forget, whether I wanted to or not.


JACE POV

I knew something was bothering Clary. I could always, just because I knew her so well. Just didn't know what was on her mind.

She laughed, yes. She smiled. But it almost seemed forced. Like there was something that was distracting her.

"Clary...?"

"Yeah?" She sighed.

"Hey, is there something bothering you? 'Cause you know I'm always here to talk. Not that," I hesitated, "I would have very great suggestions to help. Wait—forget what I just said. That probably didn't help my situation...anyway, what's bothering you?"

"No, nothing is bothering me. Maybe I need some sleep...?"

"Are you sure? Because you seem a little distracted"

"I'm fine." She looked away from me, ending the conversation. Clary stared at the starry night sky, then closed her eyes. I didn't want to pry, but if something's wrong...well, I'd really hate to see her hurt...

I decided to drop the topic. There's no point in even trying, considering how stubborn Clary is.


CLARY POV

That whole week, was probably one of the best weeks I'd ever had. Despite that one thing that clung onto the back of my mind, I had fun. We went hiking, and, went chowing through bags of candy while telling funny tales of each other. Soon enough, I forgot all about what had been bothering me. Until the last day of camp.

We were saying goodbye to each other, at the camp. Our parents decided to pick each of us up there.

It's now, or never, Clary, you have to tell him what's on your mind. You have to tell Jace. I heard a voice say that the very back of my mind. Isabelle and Simon had already gone, leaving Jace and me alone. Before I said anything, Jace came up to me. "Can't believe it's almost school again. Starting senior year with you..."

"About that..." I began, "look, it's not easy to say this, not one bit. But...well, you remember that movie we were going to star in? Y'know, 'The Dark Side: The Uprising?'" Jace nodded, and gestured for me to continue. "We were supposed to shoot it, together. I know, they told you that they couldn't have us star in it, right? In a more detailed way than that, Jia said that she needed someone more experienced. She said she'll start working with me sometime else, just not quite now. I guess she changed her mind about wanting me in her movie.

"About three weeks later, I got mail from a school. Not just any school, but one for actresses and actors. I got a scholarship for my senior year, and, they even offered collage. See, anyone can join from pretty much middle school to collage, so long as they can pay for it, or, in my case, if they have a scholarship. The problem is...it's in Hollywood. I talked to my mother about this...she said I'll make the decision that I need to make. Which wasn't really much help at all.

"So I came to ask you. I have no idea what to do at all. I don't want to leave you. We'll loose contact with each other, because of the times zones, and I won't have much time to. Sure, we'll communicate, video chat sometimes, but...if I were to leave...it wouldn't be good...for our relationship." I sighed.

"How badly do you want to go to this school?" he asked.

"Actually, pretty bad."

"Then go for it."

"But I would miss you guys...and...and..." I felt a tear roll down my cheek.

"Clary, no. I don't want to be the reason that you're not going to pursue your dream. Think about it! Being on tv. And, maybe you could even do some drawings for the movies covers, or for the tv shows that I know one day you'll be starring in. Don't let me be the reason keeping you from doing all that. I'd never forgive myself. You go, because even if you say no now, I swear, I will find a way to get you there, whether you like it or not. Because I refuse to make you choose between me, and yourself."

I knew there was no arguing with him. "So...I guess this is goodbye? We'll still be friends, right? If not boyfriend girlfriend thing, then at least that?" I asked, tears dripping off my chin and onto my shirt.

"Of course. But we'll try to keep in touch? At least message me once a day, have a conversation once a day."

"Okay." I tried to force a smile, but I couldn't. I hugged goodbye, burying my face into his shirt. Tears were gathering onto his shirt, but I doubt he really minded.

"Goodbye, Clary. And," he pulled off a ring on his finger. It had the letter 'W' on it. Or was it an 'M'? "It belonged in my family for generations now. And now, I want you to have it. As a reminder, that when you come back to New York, I'll be waiting for you. I'll be waiting."

"But I don't have anything to exchange to you..." I trailed off.

"It's fine. I won't ever forget you, anyway." he smiled, weakly. I gently took the heavy ring, and held it tightly in my palm.

"Goodbye..." I walked away, biting back the tears that I couldn't have fought back.


And I hope you enjoyed that! Thank you for reading my fanfic, all the way up to here! The sequel should be out shortly, perhaps in two weeks, if nothing goes wrong. In one week from now, I will be posting something i call, "The Collection of Songs" which contains every song I've written for this fanfic, including two new ones that I've written, one for Divergent, and one for Hunger Games.

Please review! Don't unfollow or unfavourite, because follows and favourites help me get more veiws!

Also, I have finally watched Insurgent. I LOVED IT. Seriously, you should give it a try. Though It's pretty off from the book, it's still extremely good!

Lastly, I suppose I need to end it all, with a final...

The End.
