Somebody Like You (Malec)

Chapter 21:The First Trip

Yeah I've never been to a foreign country, so I have no idea what these places are supposed to look like. Oh and I'm incorporating Cassandra Clare's postcard short story(which I don't own either) If you haven't read it yet you can read it here http://tmisource.com/2011/05/05/cassandra-clare-shares-postcard-short-story/

"Are you sure about this?"

"Yes, Jace, I've never been so sure about anything else in my life." I said while packing clothes into my suitcase.

"So you really love him don't you?"

"Jace, how many times do I have to tell you yes? Yes I love him, yes I'm moving in with him, yes I'm going on vacation with him. It's that simple"

"I'm sorry man, I just don't want you to go. You're my brother and best friend, I've lived with you since I first came into your life. I'm just afraid since you've found someone you'll love you'll forget about us."

"The great Jace Herondale saying I'm sorry, that's a first. Anyway, I'm not going to forget about you, or Izzy, or anyone." He pulled me into a hug.

"This is the last time I'm going to be seeing you for a while. Just make sure you come visit us at least three times a week, Izzy might just panic if you don't. Or else, I don't care what condition you're in at the moment I will go to his apartment and drag you out of there, and have you eat with Izzy."

"Woah, you don't have to take it that far, but don't worry, I will."

"Where is Magnus taking you anyway?"

"I don't know, but I'm about to find out. Goodbye, Jace, I'll see you soon." I gave him a hug then went to find Izzy to say goodbye. She was in the kitchen, sadly burning an egg. "Hey Iz, I'm leaving."

"When you move out of here, make sure you come visit a lot."

"Bloody hell, I'm only moving out of the institute, not the country." Isabelle pouted and looked at me with wide eyes.

"I know, I've just lived with you for my whole life, it's going to be different without my older brother around."

"Isabelle, it's okay. I love you, and I always will. You're my sister for crying out loud."

"Okay, I love you too, goodbye. Send me a post card."

"I will." I yelled from making my way towards the door. Having memorized Magnus's address by now, it was a fairly easy walk to his apartment, but it didn't calm my nerves. I'm going on vacation with him, first of all, I don't even know where we're going. Second, I'm afraid, what I'd moving in was the wrong decision? What if we get tired of each other, and we break up? That's is ultimately the worst possible scenario that could happen. And to top it all off, his immortality is definitely a problem, we'll have to find a way to deal with that. Also, what if his past catches up with him? I don't know very much about his past, every time I ask he changes the subject. Little things around the house catch my attention every once in a while, like a silver box with the initials W.S engraved in the top, and a wooden chest he keeps in his closet. Of course I still love him, I love him as much as I can, but these little insecurities I have are too much sometimes. I feel as if he doesn't tell me anything because I'm not enough for him. Yes I know he has live hundreds of years, has had many past lovers, and he says I'm special to him, but what if he's lying? What if I'm just trivial to him. I'm just hoping this trip together will clear up some things, and make our relationship stronger. I make my way up to his-our apartment now, and open the door to find it completely quiet. That was changed when Magnus came waltzing into the living room with a eye liner stick in his hand. "Hello, darling. Are you ready to go?"
