Whipped - I. Lightwood

|Liberation|

She liked that she had yet required saving

Evie was ready to leave the infirmary as soon as she sported the new healing rune on her shoulder blade. The only problem being that she was not conscious at the time this occurred but as soon as she was awake she was.  The white walls of the room made her feel worse in a way and she wanted to get back out there doing something. Anything really to get her mind off whatever was going on inside her own head. She had not died so there was no reason for her to be kept inside the infirmary any longer. She was beyond ready to get out of there. Plus she knew she was in deep trouble for skipping out on her meeting with Maryse first thing this morning. She fully expected to be alone when she woke up, however this was not the case. For Alec had left only moments prior to her waking, Izzy remaining so she had someone to wake up to. She sat at the side of her bed holding onto Evie's hand. Perhaps Evie wouldn't mind staying longer as long as Izzy held onto her hand.

"You're awake. You give me quite a fright girlie" Izzy spoke moving a strand of hair from Evie's face. The small sign of affection had Evie's heart pounding at such a rate she thought it would result in her having a heart attack. Evie gave a small smile in response not sure on how to respond to this statement. 

"Come on sweetie, let's get going" Evie proclaimed getting up and heading straight to the bathroom not commenting on the name of affection she had just thrown into the open. Izzy froze not expecting something so bold from the girl who for all she knew was relatively quiet about her sexuality. Izzy thought maybe she hadn't noticed the term of endearment. But Evie was fully aware she was waiting to see how Izzy responded. And when the girl acted like it was something that happened all the time she was happy.

The two headed downstairs at what could be seen as either the right time or the wrong time depending on whom you asked. For Izzy, it might have started off at the right time. However, this was all wrong for Evie. At that point, she saw Meliorn, Izzy's very male ex. Jealously was a bad thing but at that time that was the only thing she could feel. Immediately after looking at the Seelie, she began to compare herself to him.He was taller, he was sparklier, he was male and she was not. And he had something she could never have. This made her look towards Izzy and glare towards him. She hoped that this would be missed by everyone around her. But she was more than obvious. Both Izzy and Meliorn noticed her glares towards the man. This made Izzy hopeful in the chance that she too reciprocated the feelings. Evie's jealousy did not decrease until Izzy shared that she no longer felt the same way about him as she did beforehand and wanted something more serious in the future. Evie thought she perhaps had a chance with the angel posing as a shadowhunter.

Evie was willing to allow the Seelie to go on with the business he had attended for. However, she had not expected him to be arrested by Lydia, and despite her knowing he was most probably completely innocent in regards to whatever he was being charged for, she was not sad about him being taken away. That was definitely the jealousy speaking for as soon as he was gone and Izzy looked heartbroken, any glee she felt about him being arrested vanished.She brought Izzy into her arms. "Don't worry we'll get him out of this" She soothed stroking the girl's hair as her sudden change in wardrobe meant that she was now significantly taller than the older girl and could wrap herself around her much easier with their at least four-inch height difference.

Evie hated breaking her promises, she had already failed Simon and she was not going to fail Izzy. That was how she found herself in a stingy cave going against the other shadowhunters, Alec included. She fought to rescue someone innocent though was not happy about him this fact being known by everyone else who was rescuing him. She hated fighting against those who she had trained with and started to get to know in the past few weeks. But she was not going to let Izzy down, she would do anything for that girl and if that meant going against those who had provided her with shelter and food then so be it. That included breaking their own special shadowhunter law just so that she couldn't feel bad about getting her ex boyfriend or whatever they were arrested. Evie was aware of just how whipped she was for the other girl.
