Meteor.js, I cannot display a Template using Meteor Session

here is my issue: I have a very basic main layout where you would click an item from a list of items and see the content of that clicked item displayed on a diffrent section of the page. I know there a some example of that that I could copy but since I am learning Meteor, I wanted to complete it myself.

here is the temmplate.js to get the session and return the content:

 Template.lelementItem.events({
    'click .clic': function(){
        Session.set("clickedItem", this.ladescription);
    }
  });

    Template.lelementItem.afficheDescription = function() { 
        return Session.get("clickedItem");
    };

Here is the template.html 

 <template name="afficheDescription">
    {{clickedItem}}
    </template>

If I output the content in an alert like this it shows the content but I cannot output the content in the right place using template:

Template.lelementItem.events({
    'click .clic': function(){
        alert(this.ladescription);
    }
});

Thanks for your help in advance..

Replace

Template.lelementItem.afficheDescription = function() { 
    return Session.get("clickedItem");
};

with

Template.afficheDescription.clickedItem = function() { 
    return Session.get("clickedItem");
};

In the first case, you're adding a helper afficheDescription to the template lelementItem. You want to add a helper clickedItem to the template afficheDescription.
