When We Collided

Chapter 27

An hour later, we all sat in the basement again. Will and I had returned back to everyone else about half an hour ago, and everyone had looked at us suspiciously. I looked over at him now, too see that he was already looking at me. I blushed, and looked away from him.

"I can't believe you tried to pull that "I'm sick" crap." Isabelle rolled her eyes, amusedly. "We all know that was just an excuse so that you two could go bang each other."

I was too embarrassed to say anything, and surprisingly, so was Will.

"You guys need to get that under control. All the parents looked suspicious." Cecily frowned.

"Well then tell your brother to stop trying to touch me when we're in front of everyone else." I rolled my eyes at him.

Will smirked. "You secretly love it."

I rolled my eyes again, and shook my head.

"Honestly, how many times have you two done it?" Clary inquired.

"I can't count." Will mumbled.

Clary only shook her head, but Jace was smirking at him. I flushed, and avoided looking at Will. I could never get enough of him. My body craved him every second of everyday. But it wasn't just sex. I wanted to talk to him, make him laugh. Just being near him made me feel happy instantly. A few minutes later, we were all called up for dessert. I took my seat beside Will again, and aunt Harriet looked at me.

"Are you okay now, Tessie?" She asked.

"Yeah, a bit." I smiled slightly.

She had baked a cake, and I started eating it. I looked across the table, to see Jace whispering something Clary's ear, and she was blushing. I smiled, they were adorable. How badly I wish that I could date Will. To hold his hand without it being weird, to kiss him whenever I wanted. Sure, I basically did that now, but that would be different. To finally say I love you to him.

"Will," I started. "Have you ever dated anyone?"

He shook his head. "No, you know that I don't date."

"Why not?" Feeling a bit disappointed.

Will looked away from me. "I just don't."

I sighed. "How come you won't tell me?"

"Because, I just can't." He spoke quietly.

"Just tell me, Will." I took his hand, and he tensed.

"Tessa." He sighed.

I sighed in defeat, and let go of his hand. He grabbed it again, and held it. I looked at him surprised, but he wasn't looking at me anymore. I blushed, and continued to eat. When we were all done, everyone decided. I said goodbye to Clary, Simon, Gabriel, Jace, Isabelle, and then Will's family only left. I hugged Cecily, and then I moved onto Will. He was grinning at me, amused.

"Tonight was fun." He winked.

I laughed. "You're such a perv."

"What? I had fun hanging out with you." Will smirked.

I laughed again and then suddenly I was in his arms. He hugged me and I hugged him back. He then walked out of the door with his family. I was about to turn around, when I felt a hand on my wrist. Will turned me around, and kissed me. I was startled, but kissed me back. We pulled away after a few seconds.
