Clary's P.O.V.
"So where's Lou?" I ask munching on my breakfast.
"I don't know, I don't keep tabs on your love interests." He said a little coldly.
"Woah looks like someone woke up on the wrong side of the couch." I nudged him with my elbow. Then something he said registered in my mind. "Wait, what do you mean love interests?"
"Really? I'm no that hurt to not realize how much you like each other."
"What? I don't like Lou that way." Do I? Maybe I do but I can't let what happened the last time happen again.
"Well I already told him about Drake and he was really upset so-"
I cut him off. "You told him?! Why would you do that? I trusted you." Everyone thought we just had a bad break, nobody knew the real story besides Damien, until now.
"I know I slipped up but he did seem to care and then ran off with steam coming out of his ears."
"Really?" He cared about me? OMG he cared about me!... Wait calm down, it was probably an act. "Do you know where he is?"
"No, but try calling what's his face, you know? The one with the shaved head?" Wow really? Can't even remember their names?
"You mean Liam and fine." I went over to the phone, flipped through the contacts and clicked his number.
"Hello?" L
"Hey Liam it's Clary." C
"Hey what's up?" L
"Do you know where Lou is? Apparently Damien told him some things and ran off, I'm getting worried." C
"Try the gym across the street. Whenever he gets worked up he goes there to work it off. So what did Damien tell him?" L
"Tell you later, thanks Liam." C
"No problem." Liam hung up and I ran out the door. I ran to the elevator, praying it would hurry the f up. Somebody must like me up there cuz it got to my floor just a few seconds after I hit the button. I got to the lobby in under a minute and ran outside. I looked left and right for the gym, seeing it just a few stores to the right from the entrance.
As soon as I entered the gym I found him. He was at the punching bags, getting a real workout. His back was drenched in sweat, his hair plastered to his head. I walked over to him slowly, making sure not to startle him.
"Hey Lou."
"Hi." He didn't even look at me, just kept punching.
"Are you ok?"
"Fine, why wouldn't I be?" Still punching.
"Well what Damien told you-" He cut me off.
"Why should it matter what he told me? We're just friends, nothing more."
Well that hurt, more than I expected. I felt like my heart was being torn apart.
"I thought.."
"You thought what?" He stopped punching turned to face me, stepping in front of me.
"I thought you liked me... And I was starting to like you too..." I paused when I saw his shocked expression. Guess Damien was wrong.
All this time I've been building walls around me, to protect me from getting hurt. Then all of a sudden this jerk comes into my life and tares them down without me even knowing.
"Guess I was wrong, I'm sorry." I swiftly turn on my heal toward the exit, wiping at my eyes so no one could see me cry.
"Clary wait!"
I turned around. "What do you wa-" I was cut off by a pair of soft lips. I couldn't help but melt into the kiss, but then he ended it to soon.
"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. I was just upset about what that ass did to you and I knew I couldn't do anything about it. I didn't mean to hurt your feelings. I like you a lot and I hope you don't hate me." He was holding me close, holding so tight I could barely breathe, like I was gonna leave him forever if he let go.
"I don't hate you, I never did. I came here to make sure you didn't do anything stupid or something, I was worried about you." I said.
"You were?"
"Yeah, so you done with the punching and stuff?" I ask chuckling.
"Yeah, let's go home."
