Bennet heard me out about the type of dance and song Grace wanted us to do. He was the most creative when it came to these type of dance forms. I was more into hip hop and contemprary. Salsa and that slow dance thing was not really my style but still I was able to do it.
It took Bennet exactly 12 minutes to come up with something. Yeah I know the exact time because I was just looking at the clock and ignoring Jake. I was very much aware of his presence beside me.
"Okay so.." Bennet clapped his hands enthusiastically "I came up with something! Clary babe come here." And then Bennet took my hand. "Jake just look at us okay then try to follow it later."
Later when Bennet and I completed the step, he looked at Jake expectantly. As usual he wanted someone to praise him. Idiot!
"So..." Bennet started.
"Okay...it was great I guess." Jake mumbled in his deep,husky voice. His voice always bought a smile on my lips but not now. I felt like vomiting. He had a really mature voice and listening it again now was like eating a rock for me. I don't ever wanna hear that voice.
I was looking at Bennet only and my face was blank of any emotion. I didn't wanna give away anything.
"Great. Now you try to do it." Bennet exclaimed. I was sure that if I wouldn't have been in this situation,I would have laughed at his face. Bennet was such a baby.
Jake took Bennet's place. His eyes were searching my face looking for something but it gave away nothing. I was blankly looking at his shoulder.
"Okay guys now take hold of each other. Fast!" Bennet yelled, irritated. Jake cleared his throat loudly and slowly bought his hands on my waist.
I sucked in a huge breath. His hands on my skin bought back so many memories that I wanted to cry. But I was a big girl and big girls don't cry.
"Jakeeee...pull her closer to you. You both are standing a mile apart." Bennet complained. I swear I wanna kill that idiot.
Jake pulled me closer to him. His both hands were brushing my skin below my top and his scent was surrounding me. I could feel his breathing get uneven and....
"That's it for today. I am gonna go,bye." And with that I rushed outside. I can't bear it anymore,being close to him. It was a torture,I can't,I just can't.
I rushed home and to my room and jumped on my bed. Tears immediately started pooling in my eyes. I tried to control them but in vain,those traitors fell out. I promised myself never to cry for a boy but...I can't control myself. Those memories were still fresh. The memories of Jake holding me in his arms and us laughing,the memories of Jake kissing me,the memories of Jake touching me... I can't bear this.
I didn't know how long I was crying for but soon I heard a knock on my door. I didn't reply. I don't want to talk to anyone right now.
"Clary,baby are you alright? You rushed out of the institute without saying anything" Mom softly asked stepping into my room.
At the sight of her my sniffles turned into sobs once again. She and dad were the only people in my life that cared about me wholeheartedly and I was so blessed for that.
"Oh,my baby." And with that mom started comforting me without any questions asked which I was grateful for. She put my head in her lap and started pushing my hair out of my eyes and used her thumb to dry my tears.
We stayed like that until my sobs stopped. My mom was still playing with my hair and comforting me. She was my best friend who understood me in every situation.
When my sobs finally stopped she smiled at me and kissed my forehead.
"Let's get you something to eat okay?" And with that mom took hold of my hand and pulled me into the kitchen with her. She pulled out a bottle of Sprite out of the fridge and some popcorn.
After putting on Friends on the TV we started watching it,stuffing our faces with popcorn and Sprite. I forgot about all my problems and had a great time with my mom.
