All That Money Can't Buy

Chapter Two: Love is a Drug

And I know she'll be the death of me,
at least we'll both be numb,
And she'll always get the best of me,
the worst is yet to come,
All the misery was necessary when we're deep in love.

~ The Weeknd

Not edited because I'm going out and putting this up quick!

Clary's POV

I planned on going to Jon's room before remembering he wouldn't be in and headed up to the penthouse while sliding my phone into my bra and pulling my dress down at the bottom a little, I moped at my damp face with the back of my hand and stormed into the room wanting to get in and out as soon as possible, I only came to ask jon for his key

There was so many people in here!
It was ridiculously hot and everyone already looked insanely intoxicated

I went in search of the bathroom keeping an eye out for jace and my brother and pushed numerous people out my way.
There was a guy spewing all over the toilet when I went in but i scrunched my nose up and ignored him while I fixed my make up in the mirror and felt brave enough to enter the party

I felt hollow, like A gut fish and headed for the drinks table not caring what was in any of them, I downed a couple of brightly coloured ones and sat on the edge of the table trying to calm down and stop thinking about my lying cheating boy- Ex-boyfriend.
But it was impossible, every blonde haired, tall, English guy reminded me of him and since we were in Manchester there were a lot of those.

I ran a hand through my hair just as I caught a glimpse of the real deal watching me from the other end of the room and instead of feeling sad or depressed I felt my blood boil with anger

'I love you more than anything'
Yeah, and I'm 6' 5.

He pushed himself off the wall and gently fought his way through the crowd of people Infront of him never once taking his eyes off me.

He looked deflated, pale and even a bit sick even though I only broke up with him hours before and he was fine, now he looked like shit.

I started to panic the closer he got to me and knocked back another random drink from the table before acting on impulse and grabbed the closest guy by the shirt who was actually in the middle of a conversation and kissed him so hard he dropped his own drink.

Eventually he closed his eyes and wrapped his arms around my waist as he stood between my knees, pulling me towards his body.

I had my eyes open the entire time and watched jace over the guys shoulder as he was slowly swallowed up by the other partygoers. It was quite possibly the most evil thing i have ever done and I swear I saw something inside him shatter like fine china against stone.

Good.

Now he knows what it feels like,
Now he knows that we are officially over and now we are almost as bad as each other.

He dark haired Beauty Infront of me pulled away momentarily to whisper in my ear

"Do you want to get out of here?" He hummed in an accent from the wrong part of England, but the one I was used to had probably been whispering such things in girls ears for months now, flooding them with his soft Cockney accent that could turn any girls legs into jelly and with that last thought I jumped up off the table and let him lead me to his room a few floors down.

"Clary" someone whispered in my ear and I stirred wrapping the covers tightly around me.
