Chapter 3- Dress Fittings and Tears

Don't play the music till I say.

Clary's pov-

I woke up to a loud pounding on my door. Brody opened the door. Izzy came storming past him."Clary?!" She yelled. "Yes?" I asked sleepily. "You were supposed to be awake by now! Fittings are today! We leave in an hour!" She said before leaving the room to go wake other people up.

I noticed that Brody was already dressed. "You got up and didn't wake me up?" I asked with a frown. "You seemed tired so I let you sleep a little longer. I was just about to wake you up when Bridezilla got here." He said. I nodded sleepily and got in the shower.

I took a quick shower and got dressed. I did simple makeup and went down stairs to meet everyone. Brody wasn't coming because he wasn't in the wedding party. Fortunately, neither was Jenna!

When I got downstairs, I saw Aline and Rebecca. Aline and my brother Jon are still together! Jon wasn't here yet because after high school he decide to join the military. He is coming to the wedding but he can't be here till about five days till the wedding. Right now the countdown was at t-minus 14 days till the wedding.

Rebecca is Simon's older sister whom I love! I talked with her and Aline for a little while longer until the bride and groom came downstairs and we left for the fitting.

When we got to the store, Izzy wanted all the phones collected so when she put her dress on no one could take a picture for Simon. I laughed at this but still collected the phones for Izzy since I was maid of honor.

The girls sat down on the couch sipping champagne while the boys got there tuxes on. "Are you ready?" Izzy asked. "Ya!" Simon said back. Over the speaker in the store came runway music and the boys walked sassily out onto the catwalk one at a time.

We were all laughing so much that we had to put our glasses down so we wouldn't spill. Jace came out and as silly as he look he also looked really handsome.

The music cut and they all stood normally on the catwalk so Izzy and the tailor could look at them. I looked at Jace, my eyes scanning over him as my teeth caught my bottom lip while my imagination ran wild. The way the tux hugged him perfectly, the way he could pull off the look of a tux, everything was perfect about it.

I looked up at his face and noticed that he was looking right at me. I immediately stopped biting my lip and looked away as I felt my face heat up. I heard his chuckle and knew that I had been caught redhanded.

Once the boys were done they went back and changed. When they came out, the bridesmaids headed back. Izzy had chosen short peach dresses for our dresses. I personally liked them.

We got them on and walked onto the runway one at a time, like the boys had. When we stood on the catwalk for Izzy and the tailor, I could feel eyes on me. I didn't even have to look to know who they belong to. Only one person can make me feel that bubbly feeling in the pit of my stomach with just one look.

"Ok, can the groomsman stand with their bridesmaid please?" Izzy instructed. Jace walked up and linked arms with me. Izzy was looking at one of the other couples, so Jace started talking to me.

"You look beautiful, Clary." He said looking down at me. I looked up into his eyes and blushed. "Thanks." I said quietly.

When we were changed out of our dresses, Izzy went back to change into hers. Simon waited in the front of the store while everyone else stayed on the couch. When Izzy walked out, everyone was in awe. The dress was a mermaid style that showed off her curves beautifully. She looked so elegant but yet still sexy at the same time. It was gorgeous.

She made some alterations and went and changed out of it.

(Play song)

We head back to the hotel and when I walked in I saw Brody and Jenna in the lobby talking. Jace and I walked up to them. Jace put his arm around Jenna so I grabbed Brody's hand.

"Come on babe, lets go upstairs, ya?" I said seductively, hoping he would catch on to what I was trying to do. I saw Jace glare slightly at Brody. He nodded and we headed back up.

When we got to the room I realized we only had one key so I decided to go down to the front desk to get another.

I walked to the elevator and pressed the button. I stood waiting for it to open for a moment ad when it did, I was shocked. Inside the elevator was Jace, who had Jenna pressed up against the wall sucking her face off.

I quickly hid around the corner, my back pressed against the wall and my hand over my mouth to stop myself from sobbing. I heard them walk towards their room. I felt tears running down my face as I slid down the wall still trying to hold in sobs.

Brody came walking down the hall and came over to me. "Clary, are you ok?" He asked sympathetically. I shook my head no and wrapped my arms around his neck as he carried me back to the room.

"I love him Brody." I said quietly into his shoulder. He nodded as he sat us on the bed rubbing my back as I cried. "I did this to us. Why was I so stupid?" I said to him. "You weren't stupid Clary. You were scared of getting hurt and you were scared of losing him so you ended it before he could." He said back to me.

He's right. I was scared of getting hurt but I ended up getting hurt anyway. Now I've lost him to her.
