The Blind Date to End All Dates

Chapter 1

Clary

Would I ever be in a serious relationship? I have been dating for a couple of years now with no luck. I have a blind date in an hour and I am hoping it might actually lead to something.

I looked at myself in the mirror mounted onto the oak door. I was dressed to impress. My black silk fancy tank top with a lace neck line was tucked loosely in a white pencil skirt. My silver jewlery and black pumps completed the look perfectly. I glanced at my phone to check the time, it read 7:38. I have to leave now or I will be late! I quickly shuffled out of my modern apartment.

I hoped this would turn into a wonderful night, seeing as I have had a horrible day. First, I was late to work because my alarm clock didn't go off. I was never late to work. Second, my car wouldn't start, it seemed to have overheated. I was only going on this date as a favor to a Isabelle who had a friend that knew somebody that wanted a fling. I don't want a serious relationship, I've never wanted one before.

I clicked the power button on my iPhone, it was 8:07, she was late. A sigh escaped my mouth. I hated it when people were late. I lifted my eyes from my phone to see her rushing through the door towards me. She was absolutely breathtaking.
