"JACE HERONDALE, GET YOUR ASS DOWN TO THIS KITCHEN NOW!" Clary shouted at the top of her lungs. Seconds later, Jace was in the room, seraph blade out, and a look of panic painted on his face.
"What, demon, where?" He sputtered. She just tapped her foot and glared at him.
"Why is there a bottle of perfume in your bathroom?" She fumed. He furrowed his eyebrows. Then when realization hit, he started laughing.
"Oh!" He finally said.
"Oh." Clary mocked," what does "oh" mean? You're cheating on me and she left her perfume in your bathroom!" She finished, tears threatening to spill. Jace ran a hand through his hair.
"Clary, it's not what you think! Is-" Clary cut him off.
"And don't even try and make me believe it's not because I'm not stupid!" She screamed, the tears now free and sliding down her face. She violently spin around and grabbed something off the counter.
"This, whose is this?" She yelled, with the bottle in her hand.
"I'm not cheating on you and would never!" Jace yelled. Clary flinched. He'd never yelled at her before. He put a hand over his mouth.
"I can't believe I ever trusted you! Why'd I think you would ever change! Think you'd ever actually love me!" Clary cried. He opened his mouth to say something but no words came out. His eyes showed blank hurt.
"Listen to me now, I am not frickin cheating on you! Can't you just trust me?" Jace shouted, louder than before.
"I don't think I can!" Clary coldly said. She put the perfume down and stared into his eyes. She expected him to say something, anything, but he just turned around, walked to the door and left.
CLARY POV
He left.
Reality hit me when the front door slammed. I should of let him explain. But whose would it be if he wasn't cheating. He did cheat. Or did he?
I grabbed the bottle and stared into it. Black badass. Wow what a nice name for perfume! Who the hell would wear this.
"Clary, what are you doing with my perfume?" I heard a voice ask from the stairs.
"This-this is yours?" I asked. I'm so stupid! Who else would wear "black badass" but Isabelle Lightwood.
"Yeah, I've been looking everywhere for it! Where was it?" She asked, clicking her heels towards me.
"In J-Jaces bathroom." I answered warily.
"Oh yeah, my shower broke and I used his! I guess I missed this while I packed up my makeup!" She laughed. I nodded and handed it to her.
"Clary, what's wrong?" Izzy looked at my face. I bet she read the guilt in my eyes.
"Nothing." I answered a little too quickly.
"Okay!" She said, walking away.
What did I do?
*******************************
JACE POV
"I would ever think you'd love me."
Clary's words echoed in my mind. If she'd only let me explain! I would never cheat on her! In fact, I was going to propose, but....
She doesn't think I love her. I do. With all of my heart, I do, but she doesn't trust me.
I thought as I walked down the street. Wait, did I just leave?
I left. By the angel I left Clary.
I stopped dead in my tracks. What of she thinks I don't want her anymore? I basically broke up with her without saying it! What the hell was I thinking?
I closed my mind off and began running. I ran faster than humanly possibly, then again, I'm not entirely human. I ran to the institute in two minutes flat, shoved the front door open and raced to the kitchen.
No one.
I thought for a second, the garden?
No one.
My room?
No one.
Her room?
No one
I just about gave up when I realized, I didn't check the greenhouse. I ambled up the spiral staircase and into the main room. Midnight flowers were blossoming everywhere and in the middle of it all sat Clary.
"Clare?" I whispered to myself. Her face was drenched with tears, her eyes red and she was holding something.
"Clary?" I called, louder this time. She turned around so I got a full view of her. She was wearing one of my old shirts and was holding a picture of us on our 2 year anniversary. What had I done?
"I-I thought you left?" She whispered through tears.
"I would never leave you. I love you." I answered.
She smiled as more tears fell.
"I'm so sor-ry! I should of let you ex-explain!" She cried. I crouched down next to her.
"It okay. Just know I love you and would never cheat on you. Ever." I cooed.
She smiled but it quickly vanished.
"You don't have to stay. You could go and have someone better. Someone like you." She mumbled. My eyes widened.
"There is no one better! I am yours and you are mine!" I said, like it was the simplest thing in the world.
"But why would you want a crying mess like me? If you leave now I'd be better, we barley know each other!"She cried.
"Maybe I'd be better for you, but I already know everything about you! You always hide your face when you blush, you don't like when people call you beautiful, you LOVE art, you'd rather wear sneakers, jeans and a tee-shirt than a dress, if your sleeping alone in a bed, you curl into yourself, you wash your hair every night because it smells good. Should I go on?" I asked.
She giggled and wiped a tear from her cheek. "And you, always sleep in the same position; on your side. Every night you drag me to your side of the bed and snake your arms around my waist. You would fight any day at any time for someone you love, family is everything to you, you may have O.C.D because nothing is EVER out of place. Should I go one?" She asked chucking. I shook my head.
"I would never leave you and will always love you!" I whispered into her ear. Just as the flowers dimmed, their lips met and all of their worry melted away.
