“ i guess i can see that , it’s been kinda rough , hasn’t it ? “ there’s a gentle smile on her face before she sits down beside him . her right hand rises to move the hair out of her face before her head turns to look at him . “ i’m okay . i’m okay , it’s been a whirlwind of stuff but i mean , i’ve got all of you guys to help me through it so , i think i can handle it . “ she pauses for a moment before running her tongue over her lower lip . “ well , if i’m interrupting your thinking you can kick me out . i’ll only be a little offended . “ there’s a faint teasing in her voice but she’s partly telling the truth . “ if you’d like i can find you someone else to talk you that might be better than me ? alec ? izzy ? “ 

he nods in acknowledgement and turns to look at her. clary knew she could count on him, no matter what for. hearing she was okay was important for jace. she’d been through so much already and knowing she has time for a breather at last is just great. his eyes inevitably drop to her lips as she licks them but he’s quick to glance away to not give anything away. ‘ no, you didn’t interrupt anything. no need to feel offended. ‘ his serious expression breaks giving place to a somewhat playful one. ‘ you know i’d rather talk to you than either of them... for some reason. ‘ that last part had to be added, or she might mistake him for someone else given he was usually very... tense and strict.

‘ i know i don’t show it that much but i have my moments where i am possesive. must be the wolf gene on me. ‘

‘ oh really? i wonder how i’ve let that slip past me, but i can’t say the thought isn’t pleasant. ‘

' babe! ' fallon called out as she walked throughout the hall. platform heels clicked against the ground as she made her way down the stairs, she was excited useless to say. fallon carrington wasn't very attached to her emotions - in fact, she quite liked playing around, toying a boy or girl here and there but alice... alice was different. she was interesting, good looking and above all, she understood fallon and her ideologies which was ever so rare.

reaching the ground floor, late for breakfast, fallon greeted her more than dysfunctional family before approaching her girlfriend pressing an affectionate kiss on her cheek before taking a seat next to her. ' so i actually got something for you. ' with her statement, she shot steven a look who understood right away that he and the others needed to leave the room.

once alone with her girlfriend, fallon set out a gift bag on the table. ' christmas with the carrington was quite messy and we barely got to enjoy it, ' she started with a brief explanation, ' but i saved the best for last. ' the small smirk on her features clearly demonstrated how proud she actually was of herself for putting something together to make it up to her girlfriend - not that expensive jewelry sets weren't a good christmas present.

opening the bag, she took out three different car keys. ' i was torn between the three, so i bought all three. ' the pros of being a rich girl as well as dating one. ' now... i don't know about you but i'd love to go for a ride in your new lamborghini. what do you say? ' she held up one of the keys as she revealed only one of the cars she'd bought, not for herself but for alice.
