Summary: Clary couldn't put her finger on it.
Clary wouldn't try to put her finger on it.
She told herself it was because she couldn't, because he was in describable.
Mattes, with his fingers dusted with powdered sugar at the end of a successful shift when he'd treat them to a pastry or two.
Mattes, when the nerve below his ear jumped as he clenched his jaw, eyes going hard, before his baton swung and kept them both out of trouble.
Mattes, when he laughed at her joke and she brushed him off, scathingly remarking that being on the job was no time to be making jokes or laughing.
No, Clary wouldn't try to put her finger on it.
But she wouldn't put her finger on it because she was afraid it would scare her away.
She didn't want to have made the wrong choice.
