     “Who would have thought? Not me. That’s definitely who.” Simon looked over at Isabelle, suddenly nervous like he had just met her.       He remembered how that had been. Beautiful as she was and fierce and stunning, she had intimidated him then. She still did — and he liked that about her. She was the physical embodiment of fire without any of the destructive tendencies. She was warm rain on a summer day and fresh snow in winter. She was all the things that were wonderful and special and made life worth living.       And she was with him now.       “I think I still don’t believe it. Some days, I swear, I am still afraid your brother is lurking around a corner, arrow on his bow, aiming for my head if I try anything.” A weird imagery if you considered that since recently, they were engaged to be married.       The words sounded so adult and mature and important. Most of all, they sounded like he was dreaming and supposed to wake up any minute.

      Well, standing outside in the cold, and the rain was not exactly where she had expected her night to end, yet here she was. Bringing an umbrella had been one of the smarter decisions she’d made this evening, yet that breeze was enough to cut right through. Clary had wanted to go herself, but the many ignored messages and phone calls spoke volumes, and Izzy had offered to check up on Simon herself. Anything to take her mind off the last few days. Raising her hand, she knocked on the door once before stepping back.        No answer. What had she expected? Pausing for just a moment, she stepped forward and knocked on the door for a second time. Hearing the voice from inside, a quick ‘Go away Clary’, she bit down on her bottom lip before speaking up herself. “Simon… It’s Isabelle, there’s no one else here with me, I promise.”

      Go away, Clary. The words burst out a little sharper than he had wanted them to. He wasn’t mad at her ( he thought ), he just felt empty, sad and desperate and she wouldn’t leave him alone to think about what had happened. It was a lot of work to go through every moment of a relationship in your head and reevaluate it, knowing that your girlfriend always loved someone else more than you and was longing to kiss him instead of you.       When Simon had closed his eyes to kiss her, he had always seen Clary. Dating her had been a dream come true. When she had closed her eyes to kiss him, who had she imagined? Or had she just thought about how much better Jace kissed?       There were about 500 messages — give or take — and 200 unanswered calls — give or take — on his phone. He had read the messages all, had stared at the screen every time she called, finger twitching anxiously until she finally hung up and he felt like he could breathe again.       Now she was banging on his door again and he felt he was going to break and die — again. Except she wasn’t the one who had come knocking and that didn’t make sense to him for a moment.       For a moment, he had forgotten there were other people still in this world. Usually, when he forgot anyone but Clary existed, it was a good and elevating feeling. Now, with some exaggeration and a lot of truth, it was hell.       “Did she...?!” Simon asked then realized he couldn’t do this. He couldn’t yell at Isabelle through the door like he would have her. The last word was barely spoken and he had already crossed the room from his couch to the door and pulled it open for her. “Did she send you? Because I’m not in the mood to talk to her OR about her. I’m not even sure the mood I am in right now IS a mood.” Simon was gesturing vigorously towards the ground because the abstract notion of time was nothing he could point at while talking. “Technically, I think feeling DEAD and empty inside doesn’t necessarily count as being anything. Isn’t that funny? I have been dead for like what? A month? Never felt dead before.”       It was only after he had spoken that he thought about the possibility Isabelle had just come over without talking to Clary or knowing what had happened or what was going on. In which case, naturally, he was making an ass of himself.       Maybe, she didn’t care. Why would she, really? She was probably the most gorgeous woman he had ever known, she was fierce and strong and kind. She could do kung fu ( he was sure that was what it was ) on heels.       Right, she probably was here because of Clary. That did make more sense than that she was here because of him.

You think that I am ASHAMED of you, but I am ashamed of M Y S E L F. I look at you, and I see the mirror of my own unkindness to someone who never DESERVED it. We find in our children our own selves again, who might be made B E T T E R than we are. Alec, you are so much a better man than I EVER was, or W I L L  be.

NOT A MEME, JUST SIMON BEING SIMON | @ofchangingnature

“….did you just boop me?” Isabelle asked as she looked up at Simon. “…did you seriously just…boop me?”

      It had seemed like a good idea at the time — the time being 1.2 seconds ago. Although, one had to say, it wasn’t as much an idea as a quick thought. Anyway, noses had been booped and Simon had to, somehow, explain to either of them why he had done that.       “I can see you’re not a fan and I promise I will never ever do it again. In fact, I would, I mean, we could just both forget that ever happened? That would be good. I know you probably didn’t need anything to make your... impression of me any less cool than it is. I can’t seem to not provide any reason to... — anyway, you think that would be good?”

     ❝ You’re really sensitive, aren’t you? —Half of my chest? Scandalous. Especially considering I’m a guy and being shirtless as a guy in public is a huge faux pas. No, wait, it’s not. Why, do I make you nervous? ❞ 

      “What?! No, I’m not. I’m not... sensitive. What are you? The feelings police? I’m filled with righteous outrage.       Oh, right, because it would absolutely be cool to run around like this in public. On a beach. Do you see sand? I don’t. We’re not on a beach, Jace. That’s why there’s no sand.”

Yeah. Sure, Simon.

      “Yeah. Yeah... right. Too late for that, amigo. All I wanted was a little decency but here he is — Jace, the lord of indecency. Speaking of which, don’t your zippers ever go up all the way or are you doing that on purpose? I can see like half your chest.”
