".... and now here is Tim with today's weather forecast.... Thank you, Anthony. So today we are looking at grey skies and chilly winds with a chance of some hail. Folks, be aware that we are recieving postive readings on stormy weather so be prepared. "
Clary listened intently to the news as she stood at the door. Just as she was about to put on her favourite wind-breaker the door bell sounded. Clary frowned in confusion, she didn't remeber inviting her over nor did her mom mention anything about pop up guests. Remember her past unexpected encounters with enemies, she cautiously squinted through the peep-hole and was relieved to see her favourite - actually only - golden boy.
Quickly, she undid the locks and thrust the door up with a grin. "Jace! I didn't know you were coming over. Did you need anything?... or are we going on some surprise date?"
Jace shifted on his feet uncomfortably and avoided looking Clary in the eyes. Clary noticing that his confident demeanor gone peered at him worriedly. "Jace? Is everything alright?" Jace sighed and plastered a smile on his face then turned to face Clary, though he still had trouble meeting her eyes. "We need to talk. Can I come in?"
"...Sure." worry was evident on Clary's face but she didn't dare say anything in fear that Jace would change his mind about telling her what she wanted to hear; so she ushered him inside and followed him back to the living room. As she sat down she noticed her boyfriend's serious expression so she turned off the tv to put her whole attention on him. "So... what's up?"
"Clary, I'm not a 'beat-around-the-bush
kind of guy so I'll get straight to the point. Clary I don't... feel comfortable being your boyfriend anymore. Her eyes rounded in disbelief, unable to - no unwilling to - believe that this was happening. "And to date you half-heartedly would be unfair, to both of us."
Clary took a deep breath and closed her eyes to gain control of her emotions, something she'd never been good at doing.
Don't cry. Don't cry. Don't cry. she said, saying the mantra over and over again. However, saying that had the opposite effect she was hoping for. Instead she bit her lip and spoke fiercely, though it did not have the impact she wanted because she wouldn't stop trembling. "Why is that? I thought we were okay. Is there someone else?" Clary fired questions at him rapidly, wanting answers. She couldn't hold it any longer and let the tears slip freely.
Jace, on the other hand, wore a pained look on his face and clenched his fists tightly, he needed to restrain himself. He almost regretted his decision but then thought about the reason for this break up and it made his insides flame in anger.
"There is no other girl." he deadpanned but his tone did nothing to reassure Clary of that fact.
"Then why..." she whispered. "What did I do?"
"That's thing! YOU DID NOTHING! Nothing at all!" Jace yelled hotly, amber eyes burning bright.
"I don't understand!" Clary countered, finally decided she wouldn't play weak anymore."If I did nothing, by the Angel, Jace! What is your problem?!"
"My problem? How about this? The fact that I have to live with Simon constantly drooling over you but I have to smile and play nice because he's your best friend! Not only that,
you if he makes an advance towards you, you don't do anything except play it off as a something close friends do!" Jace ranted, panting heavily, no longer ad to contain his frustration and jealousy. He wasn't quite done venting out his feelings so he let out the last.... important? bit. "The worse thing was when we were at the Faerie Ball and Simon kissed you."
"Jace, he kissed me! I didn't do anything!" Clary defended herself.
"Yeah! Except just let him make out with you while you just sat there and let him. By the Angel, Clary! That is the same thing as cheating! You're my
girlfriend and I refuse to share you. I know that sounds possessive but I can't date you... not when you let yourself be kissed by other guys." Jace exploded, not holding back any of his anger and ended in a sad and cold whisper. "We're done."
Clary, now a mess of snot and tears, (a/n: lol there is no pretty crying here guys) had the anger evaporated out of her to be replaced by guilt, shock and sadness, way too many mixed emotions. She no longer wanted to fight with Jace anymore, she just wanted to convince him that she loved him.
"Jace, why can't you see that I only love you? I never met for that kiss to happen and for all those times I 'did nothing' when Simon hit on me, is because I only saw you..." The said boy's gaze softened but Jace was a stubborn and hard-headed person, who refused to be swayed.
"Tell me, why did you let him kiss you?" he challenged, even if secretly he didn't want to know the answer. "Out of pity." Clary thought for a moment then responded.
Pity or not, a kiss was a kiss and Jace could not stop picturing the two together, which hurt him greatly. "Sort things out with Simon, figure out your feelings and then give me a call. We can sort out what to do about this.... relationship." with that final word, Jace spun on his heel and left the residence. Slamming the door on the way, resulting in Clary flinching at the sound, he did not turn back.
Clary crumpled to the floor and hugged her knees as she rocked back and forth crying her eyes out. "Jace.... Jace... I love you." she sobbed. Suddenly a thought occurred to her and she chuckled humorlessly.
That weather man Anthony must be psychic or something. He was right. I should thank him for warning me.
A storm had come and once it had hit it left a path of great deviation.
