Anachronism ~ Shadowhunters ~ James Herondale (Rewriting in progress)

➰ London

Aurora P.O.V

After asking Lucie for a dress which she happily agreed with we were off, after walking a few minutes he started to point out all of the tourist hotspots and places he enjoyed visiting, we found ourself on a bridge looking over at the water laughing. Looking at his watch he suddenly gasped "what? Are you alright?" I asked turning to him, looking at me with wide eyes "it's 9pm" he exclaimed causing my eyes to widen as well. We started laughing once more as he once again grabbed my hands running in a direction "wait, James isn't the institute that way?" I asked pointing in the opposite direction we were running, "yes it is, but there is one more thing I want to show you" he shouted back slowing his run down to a walk. "What is it?" I asked breathless, "a surprise" he said looking at me just as breathless, "I don't like surprises" I said causing him to stop "what? Why?" He asked looking down at me "they usually end bad for me" I said with a shrug looking back up at him. "Oh, well this one won't, I promise" he said turning in another direction.

After walking for a while we came across a hill that he started to climb, "honestly James, what are we doing" I asked him "a surprise remember" he called back down "come on I won't let anything hurt you" he carried on. With a sigh I started to climb, after a few minutes of climbing we reached the top "that was worse than usual" I stated "what why" he asked getting up, "because I'm in a dress" I stated, taking his extended hand after I got up and followed him. Walking towards the edge I gasped, "pretty isn't it" he said "yeah it is" I told him looking at the view of the London night life.

We sat and laughed before for another hour or two before climbing back down and heading towards the institute. Sneaking inside he walked me to my room, "thank you, James" I said looking at him "for what?" He asked confused "for tonight I had fun" I told him. "Good because it isn't the last time" he stated "pardon?" I asked "yeah, I plan on showing you everywhere" he told me "only if you want to though, if you don't it's alright" he quickly carried on nervously "I would love to, but right now I think we should sleep" I told him with a smile "yes, sleep, Goodnight, Rory" he said "Goodnight James" I said turning to enter my room and into bed.
