Chapter 6

"What are you doing?" I asked him quietly as his forehead came down to mine.

"What I've wanted to do for a very long time," he whispered as his lips came ever so closer to mine.

What is happening...?

Clary's POV

Before I knew it, his lips softly came into contact with my own. They were surprisingly soft, even though they looked kind of rough and chapped. What even I couldn't believe, was that I was kissing him back. I've been kissed before, by the way. So I wasn't going to be that girl who freaked out when she gave her first kiss to the "wrong person". I stood up on my tippy toes slightly and wrapped my arms around his neck, bringing him closer to my level of height.

His hands were resting on my waist, and before I knew it we were walking toward my bed. He carefully laid me down, and that's when I finally realized what was going on. I pulled away from his lips, and pushed him off of me. There was a soft thump, which was Jace falling on the floor. He was not about to get into my pants.

"What are you doing!?" I exclaimed quietly, trying not to wake anyone in the house. Once he stood up, I could see the look of embarrassment on his face. "Just because we made up and now are friends again doesn't mean you can get into my pants or kiss me like that," I said.

"I'm...I'm sorry. I don't know what I was thinking," he mumbled quietly. Before I could even say anything back to him, he climbed back out my window, leaving me alone in my room.

All alone with my thoughts on how and why my best friends just kissed me, and said he's wanted to do that for a long time. A guy thinks girl give off confusing emotions.

Jace's POV

What did I just do? I kissed her. Why was I stupid enough to do that? Now she's probably going to hate me forever. Just when we patched things up, I went in and f.ucked it all up. I wasn't planning to do that so soon. I was planning to kiss her when we were closer, and hopefully she started to like and/or love me like I do about her.

I got into my car, and started driving back to my small house. Whatever you want to call it. My humble abode maybe. Okay this is getting weird and irrelevant. Anyways, I parked my car in my drive way, locking it as I stepped out of my car. I walked into my living room, only to discover that everything was trashed. Nothing seemed to be stolen, but it was a mess. I had a feeling I knew who was behind it, but I shouldn't jump to conclusions.

I searched my whole house, and did discover that nothing was stolen. Which was good, I'm not complaining, but that means I have to clean my house. Great. As I started to clear up my living room, I found a note. I picked it up, and opened the small piece of paper. I grew more and more angry as I read the note.

Jace,

Long time no see my friend. You'll be seeing more of me, and I hope you know you'll be experiencing hell on earth for leaving. This is only the beginning.

-Chris

Great. Another problem.

Clary's POV

What just happened? He kissed me, and wanted to keep going. Does he like me are more than a friend? Does he just want sex? What's even going through his head right now? I swear some guys can be more confusing than girls. That's beside the point. He kissed me and I'm not sure how I feel about it. I must've liked it a little bit because I did kiss him back. His hands on my waist did give me goose bumps. On the other head, he was/is my best friend. It was kind of weird to kiss my best friend. With those thoughts, I finally drifted to sleep.

Back to hell, I mean school. At least I had my circle of friends. I forgot to mention, my very best friend Bailey finally came back from her vacation. She was the best person ever. She could be serious if she wanted to be, but could be goofy and silly too. She was always supportive and she's just amazing. Plus, she was the only one in our group with a significant other. Bailey had a boyfriend named Preston. He was a really sweet guy, and was a gamer. He was awesome.

Bailey and I locked eyes in the hallway and giant grins made their way onto our faces. We started running toward each other, and soon enough we embraced each other in a hug.

"I missed you so much. How was your vacation?" I asked her when we pulled away from our hug.

"It was great! Still pale though. My mom forced me to wear 110 SPF sun screen. It's like she doesn't want me to get tan I swear," she said and I had to bite back a laugh.

"That sucks. My best friend from my child hood is back now, and he kissed me last night after we decided to be friends again," I said casually. I wish you could've seen her face. It was priceless.

"What!? I can't believe he kissed you. How do you feel? Do you want to skip class? Need to vent? Need some weed-" she said, but I quickly cut her off.

"Bailey, calm down. I'm not that distraught that he kissed me. You don't even know where to get weed anyways," I said before I heard a familiar voice.

"What's this about getting weed?" Preston asked, wrapping an arm around Bailey's waist, pulling her close to his side.

"Nothing. Something happened last night and you're girlfriend said she'd give me some. So, knowing her, I knew she doesn't even know where to find it," I explained to him with a small smile. They were so adorable together. I shipped it so hard you don't even understand.

"All right, well I'm just glad you're back," he said to Bailey as he pecked her cheeks, nose, forehead, and lips softly.

The school bell rang, signaling for people to head to their first period classes.

"I'll see you guys later," I said to them as I walked to my first class. As I was walking to my class, I saw something that I didn't want to see.

It was Jace.

Kissing another girl...

And it was Hailey.
