All I have to say is, this is not my best chapter.
Don't be expecting something great because it's pretty bad, but, you know what? Fuck it, I don't care.
Also, I was at cold stone a few weeks ago and I saw a guy who originally had brown hair, so he also had brown eyes, but he bleached his hair and he looked kind of like Sebastian and I was like OH MY GOD! I almost told him that I liked his hair but I have a medical disorder that makes it so I am incapable of giving compliments without sounding really creepy. Like once when I was skiing I saw someone with I neon snow suit and I liked it so I complimented them on it.
I told them I was going to marry their snow suit.
I assure you, I am not going to marry a snow suit. I meant to say "I like your snow suit" but somehow it got all twisted in my mouth and came out as me blowing kisses to her clothes.
That experience has traumatized me and I am now forever scared to give compliments. That is why I didn't say anything about the guys hair even though it made him look like Sebastian.
Sebastian went to Von's and bought a bottle of Vodka. He showed the skeptical cashier the fake ID he had. It had a bad picture of him with the name Sebastian Morgenstern printed in block letters on it. It was a very good quality fake, and it fooled the cashier. He went home and drank the whole bottle on his couch while watching Keeping up with the Kardashians. It boggled his mind how someone could have such a stupid life, and get a TV show on it.
He stumbled over to his kitchen, in his drunken state thinking it was the training room, and brutally slaughtered the slab of raw Halibut in the freezer he was supposed to have for dinner the next night. The next morning when he sobered up and found the stinking remains on the floor, he didn't mind. He never even liked Halibut that much anyway.
Lilith appeared late that evening and, upon finding the empty bottle of Vodka on the glass coffee table in the living room, assumed highschool life wasnt going as great for Sebastian as she planned. She disappeared back to her palace in hell half an hour later.
Adalyn spent the remaining hours of school at the nearby park, swinging on a swing that was much too low for her and listening to music.
She didn't know why she lied to Sebastian. She heard his fist connect with the wall once she left. She didn't want to hurt him. She liked him too, even if the true him was an ass, he still wasnt that bad. She could feel every spot he had touched her tingling, the side of her face, her hip, the edge of her ear where his hand had brushed it earlier that day, her lips.
Her hand went up and brushed them lightly, her body remembering how his mouth had pressed against them not that long ago.
Maybe she was scared. He would want a relationship, if he cared enough about her to go so far out of his way, and she wasn't sure if she was ready for that. When she thought of relationships, she thought of her parents, and how bad theirs turned out. She knew that if hers and Sebastian's ever went sour she wouldn't be able to take the kind of pain. Its better just to avoid that all together.
Is it better to have loved and lost or to have never loved at all?
Once school would have been over if she went, Ericka texted her, asking what had happened and why she wasn't at school for the rest of the day.
What did Sebastian want?
Adalyn's thumbs hovered over the screen of her phone, wondering if she should tell her, then scolded herself for even asking herself that. Its Ericka, her best friend. They don't keep secrets from each other.
He kissed me.
WHAT?! D: explain
Adalyn took a deep breath.
He kissed me last night too.
ADALYN! WHY DIDNT U TELL ME
Its kind of a long story
Too bad, as your best friend I have to know these things.
My mom lost her job, so my parents started fighting. And then my dad brought up IT
Ugh, I'm sorry.
So I decided to run away
Idiot
I know, I know. And I was pretty far away and it was late and then these creepy guys started following me
Did u punch them
... No
My phone had died
Did u get raped
No, luckily, but I almost did.
HOW COULD U NOT TELL ME THIS UNTIL NOW!
Adalyn felt a pang of guilt.
I know, I'm sorry.
Anyway, the only numbers I know is my moms and mine, but my moms phone is always off
Okay, youre going to have to memorize my number now
Yeah, I should
But Sebastian had written his number on my hand after school yesterday because he said he needed help with the science homework. So I had his number
And you called him?
Yeah, and I asked him to pick me up, and he did
Did he rape you?
NO
oh, so how'd you end up kissing
I'm getting there. .
But you know how there was creepy guys following me?
Did they try to rape you?
Yeah, and it was really scary
Did u kick them?
Um, no. But Sebastian came just at the right time
SUUUUPPPPERRRR CREEPY GUY IN SCIENCE TO THE RESCUE! :D
yeah, sort of. So, you know how he's like, terrifying
Yeah
Well he had a knife and was all like go away or I'm going to kick your ass
HE HAD A KNIFE!
Yeah, and this one guy back-talked him, and he threw the knife at him
OMG
yeah, and it hit his hand and it started bleeding a lot
SEBASTIANS SECRETLY AN FBI AGENT
I'm considering that
That is so cool
And scary
He is scary
That's the thing though, I got in his car and he was going to take me home or something
But then I STARTED FUCKING CRYING
And, let me guess, it got all romantic and stuff
YES! Me and scary guy from science had a very romantic moment in his expensive Lamborghini
Oooh he's got Lambo
Yeah, like what high school student has a car that expensive
Told you, he's an FBI agent
He totally is.
Back to when I was crying. He pulled over and was really sweet and wiped away my tears and stuff
AWWWWWW THATS SO CUTE
And my hormones were raging so I kissed him
And did he kiss back?
Hell yeah, we ended up like making out
OMG! ADALYN!
yeah, but then I was really embarrassed and he kept on staring at me at school
And is that why he wanted to talk to you at lunch?
Yeah, so he asked about last night and I got mad and stomped away to my corner, but he followed me
Ooh, Adalyn if he doesn't become your boyfriend soon I'm gonna kill a bitch
I think I kind of ruined those chances
HOW
so he said he liked me a lot and stuff
Do you like him
Yeah, I do
So why won't you guys start dating?
Because he kissed me
So? Was he a bad kisser?
No, but the whole reason for why he kissed me was because he was mad I was ignoring him and wanted to prove to me that he really likes me, and was pretty convinced that I like him too
So you didn't tell him you like him
No. And then after he kissed me he was like if that meant nothing to you I'll leave
And I said it didn't and I would like it if he stopped staring at me
ADALYN!
I know, I'm stupid
WHYYYY!
I'm sorry
YOURE KILLING ME!
And he looked pretty shocked and I told him dogs are my favorite animal and ran off
WHAT IS WRONG WITH U!
I feel bad
ADALYN!
This is going in circles
HOW CAN U MESS SOMETHING UP SO BADLY!
I know
WHY WOULD U DO THAT!
I don't know
ADALYN!
you said that before
U R GOING TO APOLOGIZE TOMORROW!
no I'm not
U R GOING TO FLING URSELF AT HIM IN SCIENCE SO I CAN WATCH!
I'm not doing that
NOW ILL NEVER KNOW IF HES REALLY AN FBI AGENT OR NOT!
oh my god Ericka
While Sebastian was drunk, he found Clary's number in his phone and began texting her.
His intoxicated mind forgot that he only has Clary's number because he stalks her and she neither has his or knows that he has hers. When he began texting her, asking how he could possible have misjudged someone so badly and why Adalyn doesnt like him back, she was very confused and at first thought someone had gotten the wrong number.
She was at Taki's with Jace when her phone blew up. It suddenly had a spaz attack and couldn't seem to bleep fast enough.
"What the hell?" She wondered aloud as she pulled it out of her pocket.
52 messages from (420) 666-1155.
"What is it?" Jace asked over his Strawberry shake.
"Like, a bajillion messages from someone who got the wrong number."
She opened them and read aloud for Jace, in monotone.
"I don't understand, Clary. Why would she possible not like me? I was nice, she kissed me the night before, but now she's all like, I would like it if you left me alone and stopped talking to me. Why. I'm so confused. My hand is so badly broken. I'm going to need another bottle of Vodka. She frustrates me so much. I kind of want to kill her, nobody she have this much power over me."
Jace was laughing behind his hand. "Who is that?"
The small red head shook her head, mystified. "They know my name, so it can't be a wrong number, but I have no idea who it could be."
"Maybe Jordan got a new phone and Maia broke up with him?" Jace suggested.
Clary shook her head. "I don't think so, I saw them yesterday and they seemed as happy as can be, and Jordan still had the same phone he's always had."
Clary's phone beeped a few more times with new messages.
"Call the number," Jace suggested. Clary scribbled the number on the screen on a napkin, and then went to the keyboard screen and typed it in.
"Let's see if they have face time." Clary clicked on the button on her screen. It rang twice before Clary and Jace were graced with a very drunken Sebastian on her phone screen.
Clary shrieked in shock and tossed the phone away from her on the table. Jace picked it up, and the corners of his lips twitched up. He found it amusing to see Sebastian in such a pitiful state.
Sebastian blinked at Jace. "You're not Clarissa," he slurred, his words hardly legible.
"No," Jace agreed cheerily, "I'm most definitely not."
Clary snatched her phone out of Jace's hands. "HOW DID YOU GET MY NUMBER?!" she screeched at her older brother. Sebastian scratched his face and took another swig from his bottle. "Clary," he muttered miserably, "I was so sure she felt the same way."
"WHO?"
Sebastian sighed. "And now my hand is broken."
Jace grabbed the phone back. "Yes, I know, love is a cruel bitch." Clary made an irritated noised and unsuccessfully lunged across the table for her phone.
Sebastian seemed to be staring at something beyond his front camera. "Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are already divorced? I thought they just got married? They even have a kid! Although, her life is already screwed up. Her name is fucking North West."
Jace, despite his interactions with Clary and Simon, still was not caught up on celebrities lives and didn't understand a thing he said.
"Well, what do you expect? Its the two biggest idiots of Hollywood. Kanye West was all like 'I'm the King of Rap' and shit. Like excuse me Kanye but while Eminem is in the picture you will never be the best," Clary interjected from across the table.
Jace was so confused. He wasn't as much in the loop as his girlfriend and her brother. "Is this like another Jelena scandal?" He asked. Jelena was the only celebrity supercouple name he had ever heard. He hoped that might bring the conversation to a place where he could join in.
Sebastian rolled his eyes. "Please, no one cares about stupid Justin and Selena anymore. They've broken up and gotten together so many times now. Justin is just retarded and Selena needs to move on." He took another swig of his Vodka. At least worrying over other peoples lives distracted him from the pain of his own.
Clary nodded in agreement with Sebastian. "Like, how many times has he gone to jail now?"
Jace, realizing he could never enter this topic of conversation without looking like an idiot, went back to his shake.
Clary and Sebastian continued they're conversation about celebrity gossip, neither one of them mentioning how strange it is for them to actually be having a normal conversation, until Sebastian was too drunk to continue. He kept on bringing up someone named "Adalyn" but Clary had never heard of an Adalyn, and that hindered they're conversation. Sebastian, however, continued bringing her up.
Toward the end he was crying over this Adalyn person, and Clary got the feeling that she was who he was texting her about. When he mentioned her dating Lindsay Lohann, she figured that trying to make any kind of conversation with someone this drunk was hopeless. She hung up on him, not worrying about seeming rude because 1, he probably wouldn't notice, 2, even if he did notice he wouldn't remember in the morning, and 3, he had murdered countless people and attempted to rape her, norms of social etiquette didn't mean much to him.
The next day, Sebastian ditched first and second period due to his horrible hang over. He went for third, though. He dressed in black jeans and a black shirt, both which offset his skin. He snuck in through the back of the school gate during passing period and made him way to science. On the way in he passed Adalyn, who ducked her head down and hurried passed when she saw him. His gaze lingered on her, even though he promised he would leave he alone. He had lied. There was no way in hell he was just going to let her slip through his fingers. He seriously was considering kidnapping her, at this point. It hadn't worked with Clary, but maybe that was because she was just so damn dedicated to her golden boy boyfriend and she couldn't get around the fact that he was her brother.
He took his seat next to Cameron, who asked him where he disappeared to after lunch the other day.
"I ditched," he responded blandly.
"Did your little talk with nerdy girl not go so well?" Cameron asked, and Sebastian internally flinched. Cameron could tell his friend was upset. "Seriously, why do you care?"
"You wouldn't understand."
Ericka glared at Adalyn across the classroom all through their teachers boring lecture on DNA. She couldn't wait until sex ed at the end of the year. It was the only unit in science she cared about.
She really needed Adalyn to get a boyfriend so she could stalk them. She had to admit, Sebastian was hot, and she would approve completely.
But that was just her own selfish reasons. Poor Sebastian! She loved her friend, but really, she could be quite impossible sometimes. She knew that it was hard, with her issues with her parents, but she felt it would be good for her friend to experience firsthand that love existed and it wasn't just something spoken of in fairy tales. She could try and help the best she could, but she couldn't force him on Adalyn.
She tuned out the teacher and disappeared into her head. The lecture on genes could wait. She had plans to make.
See, I told you, bad. I don't know how I got to Clary and Sebastian talking about celebrity gossip, I don't plan these things out I just write and it goes where ever my brain takes it. I was rereading last chapter and was surprised when Adalyn refused Sebastian. That wasn't supposed to happen it just did. Oops.
