Chapter 7 – One step ahead from you , babe

-Clary's POV-

10 minutes walk , here I am . I thought about going home and maybe rereading the Divergent Trilogy , it would be better . But I'm already in the front door , so I took a deep breath and open the door . The smell of nice food blasting in my nostril , damn the food should make me feel better .

I look up to every table and finally I found Brooklyn , sitting alone in a table for two . His back is facing me so he doesn't know if I'm here , plus he's playing with his phone . Oh I know what should I do .

I walk slowly until I'm finally on his back , I hold my laughter . Oh , he's so going to jump . 1 ... 2 ...

"Boo!"  He turns quickly in a very scaring mode , I jump backward literally screaming . He laughs so hard in my face , and my cheeks is burning red right now . Oh my God , this boy . I was supposed to be the one scaring him , he was supposed to be the one who jump in shock . Damn .

"Oh my God ! You should really seen your expression." He laughs harder , and I just stand there startled from what just happened . How could he know that I was behind him ? I mean , he's practically facing his phone the whole time .

"Oh next time you may want to look at what am I facing." He said still laughing as he show his phone to me . I look at his phone , and oh my god this boy I swear . His phone is on Camera , yeah front camera . So all this time he knows that I was behind him , fuck you Brooklyn .

"That wasn't really funny." I said as he stand up from his seat smirking to me , which is I hate on so many levels .

"Oh said the one who was going to scare me." He smirks and I'd really glad if I can slap his face right now . I just rolled my eyes at him . "You know you can just call my name in the first place , and all of this wouldn't even happen ."

"Oh I just don't like saying your name." I said as I glare at him , but it seems like he's used to me glaring at him cause he just chuckle at me .

"Right." He said sarcastically as he walk to the cash register to order our food , I follow him from behind . He turns his head smirking as he said "Now you know that I'll be one step ahead from you , babe."

Holy shit , he did not just said that . I was about to respond to him but my mouth just hanging open like that , nothing's come out . I was too startled , ugh . I thought we're done about that word . I just follow him walking until we reach the cash register .

The cash register greets us as she write down our orders . Brooklyn refuse at the idea of 'paying seperately' , of course he is . I mean he sure is a mix between a really nice gentleman and a completely asshole . I let him this time , I mean am I ever going to win against him ? No , I'm not .

"But next time let me pay okay ?" I said to him , because honestly I like the idea of taking turns than having a boy pay for me again and again .

"Oh so there'll be next time huh" He said smirking at me , holy shit I did not even realized what I mean by saying that .

"that's not what I mean , but ... ugh ... whatever." I said I'm not going to ever win from him , he got me . Wait , it doesn't sounds right .

We walk back to our table , as we finally sit down facing each other .

"So because everyone needs to know that you are my girlfriend , I need to know more about you." He said at me , I don't like this idea but it seems like it's the right thing to do .

"So this isn't really about 'apologizing' huh ? This is actually 'I need you to tell me everything about yourself' kind of lunch." I said chuckling at him and rolled my eyes at him .

"You can say that . It will be worse if they caught us pretending so I'm sure that this will be the best way if I know more about you." He said rolling his eyes back at me . I swear we're just two people who kinda get annoy about each other .

"Oh so what are we gonna do ? Play 20 questions ?" I said sarcastically and chuckle at that .

"Nice idea , let's start by full name . Mine is Brooklyn Joseph Beckham." He said completely ignoring that I was joking .

"You know that I was joking right ?" I said and he just shrugs . Fine . "Clary Emily Leighton."

"Birthday ? Mine is 4th March." He said and I note to myself that I don't want to know that , and even tho I want to I could just google him ha .

"5th January." I said to him as he nod .

"You're 15 right ? I'm one year ahead from you in school , so you must be 15 right?" He asks and I just nod as an answer .

"What do you like to do in your spare time ? I love playing football."

"Umm ... I like reading in my spare time." I said because I think that's all I ever do in my spare time which is a lot , because back then I don't really have many friends .

And so it goes as we eat our food which is so great . After we done , we walk to the front door . He hold the door for me , wow . Manners is hot . Nope this is Brooklyn , he might be attractive but he is so not boyfriend material overall .

It's a nice summer weather today , it will be nice for a walk in a park . Thinking about it , Anne probably in the park too right now . I guess a little walk in a park is okay right ? This summer I'm so ready to change that loner side of me , I'm tired of always being alone . I guess taking a walk in a park in every nice weather morning should be a good start , maybe I could make some friends .

I stand there , hoping he would say his goodbye first because I want to take a walk in a park near here . 15 seconds passed ...

But he just stand there too staring at me and I practically did the same , I'm too deep in thought to realize that all this time I was staring at him . He surely has a beautiful eyes .

Realizing what are we doing we both laugh at each other .

"What." I said laughing as he is laughing too .

"I was waiting for you to say something because I wanted to go the park first." He said honestly as he grin at me . No shit , he thought the same thing as me .

"No way , because I thought about that too." I said as I laugh at the fact that we thought about something which is the same yet we both just standing there and stare at each other .

"Oh , I got a great idea." Brooklyn said and out of nowhere I got a feeling this isn't really a 'great' idea as he said.
