“Later, when his father left him, the boy cried over his pet, until eventually his father sent a servant to take the body of the bird away and bury it. The boy never cried again, and he never forgot what he’d learned: that to love is to destroy, and that to be loved is to be the one destroyed.”

Jimon + 2.05 | 2.14

•jimon coffeeshop au for happiness reasons

•jace runs a bakery/coffee house with his siblings. its called something dorky like Lightwood Delights. their main customers are vegans and hipsters who dont want to go to starbucks

•enter simon lewis

•he starts stopping by every day on his way to work. jace looks up from frosting pastries to see this radiant guy standing at the counter and, honest to god, his heart stops. simon’s so awake despite it being so early, and he’s laughing and brushing his perfect curls behind his ear. theres a guitar case slung on his back and its making his green sweater push down his shoulder, exposing a little bit of collarbone and next thing jace knows he’s heading over to take the register from alec

•he introduces himself and trips over his words like a DORK and alec and izzy snicker at him from the oven. jace flips them the finger (beneath the counter so the cutie cant see) and takes simon’s order

•he gets a caramel frappe with extra foam and a sprinkle of cinnamon. jace is shook like,,,,how can a DRINK be cute?? simon also gets a blueberry muffin and his whole face lights up when he sees the total because “finally i dont have to sacrifice dinner for coffee every morning!!”

•simon comes in consistently every day between 7:50 and 8:00. every day jace swoops in to take the register from izzy, then goes back to baking when simon leaves. he starts making small talk, asking about simon’s guitar and then asking about his music career when simon opens up about his recording contract.

•alec and izzy are …. stunned. like when jace thinks someone is pretty, he turns on the flirting and without fail its always smooth as fuck. but with this guy….he’s a mess. he stutters and laughs at every single little joke and he starts giving away free muffins to this dude!! so theyre like, ok, we gotta give him a lil push

•the next day when simon comes in, alec goes over and mentions that they’re getting busier in the evenings and maybe, if simon has time, he could play his guitar for a lil extra money

•simon is thrilled!! he loves playing for people and this is his favorite place and not to mention he’s ridiculously into jace the barista. so he agrees right away and jace is beyond excited

•simon is schedule to play on friday. jace gets a million pep talks from izzy and alec about how he has this great ass opportunity to get to know simon and talk and !!! they exchange PHONE NUMBERS in case simon needs details on pay and scheduling and stuff.

•then simon comes in on wednesday all bundled up in a heavy coat and a scarf and gloves which….its cold out but not THAT cold. he orders his usual and he’s chattering all happily about the gig and what he’s gonna play and then right in the middle he sneezes. like five times. and then when he keeps talking he sounds all stuffed up and his nose is red and jace has a dawning sense of horror in his chest. he waves away jace’s concern and insists that he’s fine, and jace hesitantly believes him

•on thursday its 8:02 and simon still hasnt come in. jace is gripping the cash register with white-knuckle force when a petite redhead bounces in and orders simon’s regular. jace hesitantly goes “sorry but is this…for simon lewis?” and the redhead chirps “yup! he’s my roommate. you must be jace, he’s told me a lot about you! he’s sick because he’s totally overworking himself. he told me to tell you that he’s still gonna play tomorrow but between you and me? he can hardly talk. anyways, he’ll text you”

•she leaves and jace is a whiny mess while izzy and alec try to calm him down by telling him that they’ll just reschedule, it’s all fine, whatever

•jace is still sulking when his phone dings and simon sends him an apologetic texts with a billion frowny faces. jace answers and tells him not to worry, dude, they’ll. just reschedule

•simon texts back that mayyyyybe jace can come over? if he doesnt mind the risk of contagion, maybe he could hear the songs simon is working on?? a pre-concert kinda thing, he says, and jace is already out the door with a bag of blueberry muffins before simon can even send an address

•he still looks beautiful, and jace cant believe that he’s actually sitting on simon’s couch and watching brooklyn nine nine. simon eventually shrugs and says “i dont think anything i sing will actually…sound good right now. i just wanted to see you”

•"really?? i mean, i wanted to see you too"

•"dude dont sound so surprised. ive been flirting with you for like, two months? how many times do i have to mention a special song until you ask me what it’s about and i get to tell you that it’s about you???“

•jace fuckin kisses the HELL out of that boy, despite the circumstances, and afterwards they eat blueberry muffins and watch tv.

•when simon feels better, he does a special performance on sunday night at the cafe and jace watches his boyfriend sing about him while he ices a heart on a blueberry muffin
