tell me you love me

Chapter 6

Clary's POV

When I wake up the next time i'm feeling so much better. I stretch and then I look at my alarm clock. Oh shit!! I'm already late for school!
„JOHN!" I yell.
„What??" He shouts back from his room.
„Why didn't you wake me!?"
„Do you seriously think i'm letting you go to school today?" he laughs.
„But I feel fine." I argue.
„Yeah well I already called." he shrugs.

Jace' POV

Today Clary isn't at school and for the first time I realize just how much I like this stubborn redhead.
Throughout the day Kaelie keeps bothering me. It's getting really annoying, I mean yeah we slept together a few times but that was it!
I tried to ignore her during lunch but she chose to sit with us. Ugh!
All I can think about though is Clary. Her angelic voice, her gorgeous body, her beautiful hair. Oh god. I'm falling for her.
Then I remember that we wanted to get coffee sometime. That's definitely something I can look forward too.

Clary's POV

I spend the day painting, listening to music and reading. At around 5pm I get a text from Jace.
(A/N the bold is Jace the cursive Clary)

Hey Clary just wanted to ask how you're doing?
I'm better thanks for asking.
Hey I just remembered that we wanted to go out for coffee.
Oh...yeah.
So do you want to do it this weekend?
I'm busy sorry.
Oh ok when then?
I got to go. Bye.
Wait!
Clary?

Then I ignored the rest of his texts. I really don't want to be one of Jace' toys.
And it looked like he new Kaelie very well.
So why should I bother?

Jace' POV

I was kind of nervous when I texted Clary but I hadn't expected her to just say no and then leave. What did I do? Sometimes women are complicated...
I catch myself staring at my phone a couple of times, waiting for a text from a certain girl.
Why is she mad at me? Damn it!
I consider going to her house again but I don't want things to go like last time.
All I can do now is wait.

Clary's POV

I kind of regret being so harsh to Jace. But if he'll just throw me away when he's done with me then what does he expect?
I throw myself on my bed and bury my head in the pillows. Why does everything have to be so complicated? Why can't some things just be easy?
„Munchkin! Dinner is ready!" John yells from the kitchen. Just then I realize how hungry I am so I rush downstairs.
Pizza!!! YES!
„Looks like somebody's hungry." John laughs.
I give him a playful punch on the shoulder and grin. Then I grab the homemade Pizza and head to the living room.
We spend the rest of the night eating pizza and watching TV.

Jace' POV

She didn't text. I don't know what I expected but it is kind of disappointing.
Tomorrow i'll talk to her. Then she can't ignore me anymore.
