Chapter 1
Clary POV
I woke up at to my alarm ringing at six thirty rolling out of bed like I do every morning. I immediately walk into my bathroom and take my time showering, shaving my legs and washing my red curly mane. After I finish I walk out and change into my uniform a perfectly press burgundy skirt and a white shirt with not a wrinkle in sight and mathcing burgundy tie and brush out my hair before applying some light makeup and grabbing my bag and heading downstairs.
As I enter the kitchen I see that my father Valentine Morgentstern is sitting at the head of the table reading over some case files, my father is one of the most sought after lawyer in New York and he runs a successful law company that only works with some of the most prominent people. Sitting next to him is my brother Jonathon who is Valentine's card board copy with the same white blond hair and black eyes both are dressed in the most expensive tailored suite. My brother is starting an internship with father at his company so I guess it explains why he chose to copy him not that I'm surprised.
I see my mother Jocelyn walk into the room dressed in a beautiful dark green dress that reached just above her knees with her matching red hair in a bun. People say I am her card board copy. My mother is also a very well known and respected artist and has her own gallery and studio in New York. She walks over to my father and kisses his cheek before grabbing her bag. I walk in as my father and brother both stand grabbing their matching brief cases as well. I say a polite good morning to them before following everyone into the garage and sitting in my mother's car as Jon goes with our father.
Since they are going to work together they have chosen to carpool which means my mother will be dropping me off to school in the mornings on her way to work and I will walk home or get a lift from a friend.
After a ten minute drive we arrive at my school Idris Academy a private school that my father insist I attend. I kiss my mother on the cheek saying goodbye as I step out of the car and onto the side walk. After she leaves I head inside and go to my locker to get my books for my first class Algebra. Right as I close my locker door I see my best friend of ten years making his way towards me Simon Lewis a nerdy guy glasses with dark brown hair and brown eyes dressed in his school uniform which consist of a white shirt and khaki pants with a burgundy tie most likely wishing for his Star Wars t-shirt back.
"Hey Morgenstern, what's going on?" He says coming over to high five me.
" Hey Lewis, how was your Easter break?" I ask. We had just come off Easter and I hadn't seen him in two weeks since my parents took us to Florida to visit my father's mother, grandma Seraphenia.
"It was fine until my mom decided that it would be fun to host an Easter egg hunt for me and my sister." He said as we walk together to Algebra.
I burst out laughing think of Simon and his sister Rebecca looking for Easter eggs in their tiny backyard. Simon's mom is a single mother after his dad died in a car accident two years ago and he got a scholarship to come to Idris Academy which is much better now that we are here together. His older sister Rebecca is eighteen and is about to start her first year at UCLA for business.
" It's not funny she made us spend three hours looking for eggs, three hours Clary I was in the middle of an epic fortnite battle."
I smile knowing that even though he complains about it Simon loves spending time with his mom and sister. " Oh relax Si your mom is just trying to spend as much time with you and Rebecca as she can until Rebecca leaves for college." I say just as we walk into Algebra and take our seats in the second row as usual.
Before he can reply the bell rings signaling the beginning of class. Mr. Carstairs walks in followed by three other people who I presume are new. The first is a tall guy with black hair and blue eyes who seems to have a permant sowl on his face, the girl standing next to him who I think is his sister since she also has long black hair and blue eyes and is insanely geourgus and I can practically feel the Lust rolling of the guys in the room. The last guy however is the most interesting of the bunch because I am not kidding when I say he is geourgus and head to toe golden. He has golden curls on his head, with amazing golden eyes and these kissable lips that have a lip ring in the lower right side. Going futher down is no disappointment either I know he definitely works out a lot. However the most interesting thing is the tattoo I can see peaking out from under his untuked white shirt collar that I can not make out, my hand is just itching to draw him and I finally look away from him when I see him look at me.
"Okay class these are the new student please try to make them feel welcomed, why don't you introduce yourselves." Mr. Carstairs says
The girl speaks first "hi my name is Izzy Lightwood, these are my brothers Alec Lightwood and Jace Herondale" she say pointing to each guy respectively. Hm..Jace a hot name for a hot guy I think.
The teacher then tells them to take a seat and since the only seats available are two in front of us and one next to me Izzy and Alec sit in front leaving Jace no choice but to sit next to me. When he takes his seat I catch a smell of his colone which I can't figure out what it is but I do get a hint of cigarettes but there is no way this guy is smoking is he? I hope not I have zero tolerance for smoking and drinking.
Class begins and Mr. Carstairs passed out some review papers for us to do and says that as soon as we finish we may leave. Everyone starts doing theirs expect one person, I look to my left and see Jace is napping with his paper empty in front of him. After a while Simon as usual is the first to leave followed by the Lightwoods. They both glance at their brother and sigh shaking their heads in disappointment which confuses me. After another ten minutes or so half the class is gone and I am still struggling with half the questions on the paper. Math was never my strong suite give me a paint brush awesome, but ask me any math question and I shut down.
My frustration is starting to show now and I am getting ready to give up when I feel a hot breath on my ear and an angelic voice say "the answer is x equals 37"
I look to my side and see Jace awake with his paper filled out and done. I stare in disbelief and ask "how did you finish so quickly?"
He flashes the most beautiful smile I have ever seen " I am very good at math and you seem ready to say fuck it and run out of here screaming" he says
"Math and I have a complicated relationship" is all I say as I giggle and he let's out a laugh. He then helps me finish the rest of the questions and we both pack up and leave together after handing in our papers.
"Thank you" I say to him as we walk down to deserted hallway.
"No problem I saw how much you were struggling and figured I should help" he says shrugging his shoulder. I see the Lightwoods making their walk towards us at the end of the hall.
"There you are Jace we have been looking for you" Izzy says
Jace sighs telling them that he just left the class. I look at my watch and see that we have five minutes until next period so I decide to leave them and head to class.
"Well I have to good before next class starts I will see you guys around. Oh and Jace thanks again for the help I'm sure I would have gone crazy without you" I say smiling at him.
He let's out a final laugh and winks at me before replying " No problem Red anytime." I blush and turn away heading to class before I embarrass myself.
*Jace POV*
I wake up to a pounding on my door and roll out of my bed "Six o'clock in the fucking morning this better God."
I open the door to reveal Alec standing there in some dorky uniform holding a similar one in his hand.
"Why are you still asleep we have to leave for school in ten minutes." He says looking frustrated.
"Fuck...is that today?"
He lets out a sigh "Yes you idiot today now get dressed I'm driving" he says before turning and walking down the stairs.
After debating whether or not to get dressed I decide to just change and get it over with. I put on the horrible uniform leaving my shirt ubtuked and forgoing the tie. By the time I walk downstairs Alec and Izzy are already in Alec's car, so I just silde into the back seat and we leave.
After a ten minute drive we pull up to the school Idris Academy, really that's the best name they could come up with? We all head inside and get our schedules before leaving to head to our first class which we all have together Algebra. We meet the teacher Mr. Carstairs outside the door and then we all go in. I completely some out not really caring what happens and start looking around the room, I smirk looking at all the hot girls here with their eyes filled with lust but I stop at one girl inperticual. This girl is very petite with bright red hair and I have to admit she is beautiful but in a simple ways like she doesn't try too hard not that she needs to. What i find the most interesting though is that all the girls here look at me with lust while she looks with an intense curiosity. I smile inwardly seeing that she is checking me out but stops when she sees that I am looking at her and for a second I am shocked by the stunning green eyes. I vaguely hear Isabelle introduce us by I don't care all I want is to look into those green eyes again.
Mr. Carstairs then tells us to take our seats and I am excited when I notice and open seat next to her and quickly but discreetly move to sit next to her. He passes out review sheets for us to do and I take one look at it and already know all the answers since I am very good at math so I decide to take a nap since I didn't get much sleep last night.
About twenty minutes later I get up and see that half the class is already gone so I start doing the paper so I can leave. It doesn't take long for me to finish but as I'm about to leave I look over and see that the girl is still sitting next to me looking as if she is about to start stabbing the paper in front of her. I can't help but think of how cute she looks as annoyed and she keeps wiggling her little nose like a rabbit it's rather adorable.
When I see that she has left more than half the questions unanswered I decide to help her out so I lean over the scent of strawberries hitting my nose and whisper " the answer is x equals 37."
She looks at me in shook and ask how I finished so quickly and I tell her that I am good at math. She then tells me that her and math have a complicated relationship and that makes me laugh hard. This girl is very funny and beautiful I think. I then help her finish the rest of the questions before we both leave together. She keeps thanking me as we walk down the hallway and I keep telling her it was no problem which it wasn't I normally don't offer to help people but I felt like I really wanted to help her out for some reason. Just as i'm about to ask her name I see Isabelle and Alec making their way towards me.
"There you are Jace we have been looking for you" Izzy says
I sigh and tell her " I just left class guys."
I see Red look at her watch and then turn to me and say that she has to leave to head to her next class and starts walking away after thanking me again to which I laugh and wink at her before saying "No problem Red anytine." I smirk when I see her blush and turn away quickly. I suddenly get this urge to follow her but u suppress it. I turn back to see Alec and Izzy both staring at me in shook.
"Why are you guys looking at me like that?" I ask
Alec then shakes his head and say " We have never seen you laugh like that before."
" I laugh all the time it's no big deal" I say getting frustrated
" Yeah but never like that Jace." Izzy says.
My annoyance gets the better for me and I tell at them to mind their own business before walking out the door to the side for the school where I let out a sigh before reaching into my bag and pulling out a pack of cigarettes. I take one out and light it feeling my shoulders drop as a I let out a puff of smoke. A part of me wants to leave and just go home but I want to see Red again so I stay.
