Somebody Like You (Malec)

Chapter 1:Rain

I ran, not worrying about where I was going. It was pouring from the all, soaked to the bone but I didn't care. Jace had found a mundane girl (that just so happened to be shadowhunter) who's name I didn't care to remember, and I saw the way he looked at her, full of want, need, love, and she looked at him the same way.

"Well, well, well look at what we have here" I heard a cold voice in the distance say. I looked around thinking that I could spot someone but it was too dark, I wouldn't be able to see My own hand in front of my face if I had tried
