Hi :)
I haven't had any ideas Bc my mind is always blank nowadays, but I saw this prompt somewhere and I wanna write about it :)
It's also about to be Valentine's Day and now that I'm not 100% alone I realize that everyone is in a relationship...

Every
One...
Except for me :)
So that's a great feeling.....
Anyways, sorry if that was kinda depressing, this chapter is but at the same time isnt.....idk you decide.

KAELIE POV
I pour some sprite into one of Alec's plastic blue cups. We've been in college for around three years now. Alec graduated last year and moved in with Magnus, he graduated two years ago and finally got the guts to ask Alec out three months before he graduated. Jace only lives at the dorms Freshman year, then he got bunked with Sebastian so he moved out. Jace and I dated for about a month, until he suddenly ended it because he wanted to date My best friend Hannah. I was in love with Jace and it hurt me...it still does actually. I guess 'was' wouldn't be the correct word to use. I am in love with Jace. Valentine's Day is in a week, so I hope by then I'll have the courage to ask him out again. I go and sit down next to Izzy, she's been my roommate since freshman year, she helped me get over Jace, which is why I still hang out with Jace. Jace is Izzy and Alec's adoptive brother...so..They're all kind of a package deal.
"Hey, what are you guys doing for Valentine's Day?" My hand tightened around the cup as Izzy says that. I tried my best not to look at Jace, so instead I looked at Magnus. He said he would help me find a way to ask Jace out. Magnus has changed his style over the years. From an edgy 'panic at the disco' bisexual to his 'hello I'm from the 1920's' bisexual to finally his 'BITCH IM A QUEEN' bisexual. Which, we all agree is his most suited look. His hair has different colors dyed into it every 2-3 months. He always has some sort of nail polish on, and has black eyeliner. Magnus looks at me. He doesn't smile, he just stays still.
"Magnus and I are going to be in DC that week, so we'll probably just go visit the monuments and the White House and then go to dinner, and then go to this really good cupcake place in Georgetown." Alec says.
"Yeah, and while we're at the White House maybe we'll accidentally trigger an orange," Magnus says with a wink making everyone laugh. Alec puts his hand on Magnus' thigh. Alec has also changed a lot. He went from his nerdy and dull closeted phase, and then he cane out and became this shy bad boy kind of person who never wore a jacket no matter how cold it was, and then to what he is now. A happy person... i wish I could be like him. Never in my life have I envied someone as much as I envy Alec.
"That's great you guys! You're gonna have such a good time!" Izzy whines. Izzy has been single ever since I can remember. She went from the slutty freshman who went to a party every night. To the depressed sophmore who thought had been knocked up. To the confident junior she is now. As I look at everyone in the room, I realize we have all had at least three changes in our college life. Even I've had the three changes. From the ugly girl I was when I first came, to the heartbroken depressed girl I was when Jace left me. To what I am now...

Someone who has to pretend to be ok.

"Im not doing anything," I add as I realize the silence was waiting for me to fill it.
"I think I'm going to ask this girl out," Jace says. My heart broke at the same time everyone in the room yelled
"What?!"
"Who?" Izzy asks as she turns her whole body to look at Jace.
"Ok, so We've never really met," Jace says with a huge smile. " but our showers are on opposite sides of the same apartment wall, so sometimes we're showering at the same time and we sing duets..." Jace says. "And i don't know...I've just...grown to like her..."
"Ok, Jace...how do you know this girl isn't like 53?" Alec asks with light frustration in his voice.
"Alec....I can hear her voice.....besides, I saw her walking out of her apartment once, but she was in such a hurry I didn't get the chance to talk to her.
"What does she look like?" Izzy asks.
"She's short," Jace says. Izzy rolls her eyes and slaps Jace's thigh.
"In detail!" Izzy exclaims.
"She's short, she has red hair and Green eyes..." Jace says.
"What is she? A traffic light?" Izzy asks and giggles.
"Yeah, and She's short....like I've never had to deal with this, but you would have to bend down every time you kiss, can you imagine the strain on your neck?" Alec asks.
"I don't think that's how it works....besides, I like short girls." Jace says. He stands up and grabs his coat. "Anyways, I'm gonna go see if I can catch her in the lobby or something," He walks past me and leaves. The room is silent after the door slams shut. I felt all my friends eyes on me. Izzy lays a pitiful hand on my shoulder. I flinch away from it. I quickly get up to cover it up. I go to the kitchen and grab the bottle of Vodka instead of the sprite.
"Cupcake?" Magnus asks me. Ever since I met him he usually always calls me cupcake. I drink the half full cup of Vodka like a shot.
"What?" I ask him. Everyone looks at me. "I'm fine...." I tell them. "It's not like it was a fact....he didn't give any sort of sign that he liked me back......never has never will...."
"Kaelie," Izzy says as she stands up.
"What? Izzy?" I ask her with utter pain dripping from my voice. "Are you going to tell me he did love me? He does love me?! It's not true! He doesn't care..."
"He doesn't know you like him Kae, you never told him! You just let him go!" Izzy says. I pour myself more alcohol and down it quickly.
"Fine Isabelle.....if you need all ends to be tied, then I will." I walk out of the apartment before anyone can say anything else. I walk to Jace's apartment. Before I can knock he opens the door and sees me.
"Oh...Kaelie....what's up?" He asks. Before I can answer he quickly interrupts.
"Listen, the girl I talked to you about should be heading up any minute so..." I push him into his apartment and walk in.
"Jace," I say as I move my blonde hair to the side. I looked to my left at Jace's mirror. My platinum blonde hair came down at the side, my pink lipstick un smudged. I had a black trench coat on due to the weather that perfectly highlighted the curves that slowly started to form during freshman year of college. I looked back at Jace and look at him. He was perfect. Muscular, but not too muscular... his blonde hair pushed back yet falling into his eyes due to his nervous hand pushing it back over and over again. Every time Jace got nervous he would push his hair back... which would mess it up in the sexiest way imaginable. "Shut up and Listen to me for a second," I say. I could feel the alcohol messing with my head, but I ignored it and took my coat off to reveal a pink sweater and the golden heart necklace Jace had given me. I doubt he even noticed it though.
"What are you doing?" Jace asks. I let the coat fall to the floor and I roll up my sleeves as I go up to him. I look deep into his eyes.
         "I....." I stop as I feel myself go into a trans. I felt like I was floating. Memories of the times I was with jace flash by. I open my eyes to see Jace's confused face. "I'm in love with you..." I finally tell him. I reach up to him and kiss him. The kiss was bitter, and cold. Jace doesn't stop the kiss...he just doesn't kiss back. I finally pull away.
            "Kaelie...." he says as he looks down at me. I immediately knew what the look meant. I felt my heart break. I grab my coat and sprint out the door. As I do I crash into something. I look down and see a girl with red hair. It must be the girl Jace was talking about. Her groceries were all over the floor.
        "Hey! Watch where you're going!" She says as she picks up a bag of apples, not once looking up at me. I walk away as tears start pouring from my eyes. I turn around as I go inside the elevator only to see Jace helping the girl pick up her food. The doors close and I'm left alone in the elevator.

The next part will be uploaded on February the 14th, so....I hope you liked this little part, and....yeah, I love you ❣️
