So a new story of mine. I got bored, and I have time on my hands, so I thought why not create a new story! This is different from my usual stories where someone is usually kidnapped or murdured (although I'm sure it will happen at some point in this story) ill still write my other story though for The Descendent readers. Okay well enjoy. i don't own the mortal instruments, all credit goes to Cassandra Clare. And there is really no time period, lets say they have a break from disaster and this happens?

Chapter 1: Schoolboys

Jace walked down the stairs of the institute. He strolled into the kitchen and went to his special cupboard to get his cereal. Alec was sitting at the kitchen table rubbing his temples.

"Alec, do we have any soy milk?" Jace asked. "I usually go with 2% but I'm going to try soy. I need my protein; I'm a growing boy," Jace sang part of the song Trapped in the Cupboard (which I don't own). Alec didn't answer just kept staring at the table. "Alec." No answer. "Alec! ALEC! ALEC, ALEC, ALEC, ALEC!"

"Huh? What?" Alec asked. "Oh, morning," he said as he saw Jace.

"Again, do we have any soy milk?"

"What the hell do I look like? The frikken milk man?" Alec growled.

"I'm sorry, I can see it's that time of a month again," Jace said as he sat down at the table pouring 2% milk.

"I'm a dude."

"Are you, are you really?"

"Shut up," Alec muttered.

"So what's got your panties in a twist?" Jace said as he took a spoonful of cereal and stuffed it in his mouth.

"I'm going to ignore that, and its nothing. It's just... I think... Magnus is getting tired of me."

Jace nodded his head, "I'm just going to keep nodding."

"I mean, we've been hanging out like every day now," Alec continued.

"Mmm hmm." Another bite of cereal.

Alec sighed. "And I feel like he knows too much about me." A pause. "Aren't relationships supposed to be mysterious?"

Jace coughed. "Umm, I don't know. Been in too many relationships to remember. You shouldn't know everything about your lover, or it gets awkward." Isabelle walked in and pulled out a frying pan.

"Who wants a fresh basil omelet?" She asked holding the pan like it was a sword.

"Well, that depends, who's making it?" Jace asked.

Isabelle smiled. "Me."

"I'm out," Alec said getting up from the table and walking out of the kitchen.

"Who needs him?" Isabelle shrugged. "I have you to test my cooking," she said to Jace.

"I need him. ALEC!" Jace called running out of the kitchen. After five seconds, he gave up trying to find his step brother, and sat down on the stairs Leading to the second floor.

He heard a soft voice behind him, "Hey, whatcha doing?"

"Hiding from Isabelle she's trying to make me eat her food." He turned around and saw Clary.

"Oh hey," he stood up and kissed her cheek. "So what do you want to do today?"

"Well, actually, I'm hanging out with Izzy today. We're going shopping." She looked into the kitchen. "I'll go get her before she destroys the kitchen." She walked off.

"Umm, kay?" Jace said unsure of what was going on; he thought his girlfriend hated shopping.

Alec walked down the stairs. "I got a problem," he said as he sat down. Jace sat beside him.

"I think I do too," Jace said as Isabelle and Clary walked out giggling about some hot movie star.

"Well, what's your problem?"

"Tell me yours first," Jace said raising an eyebrow.

"Clary would be jealous of that. Anyway, Magnus called me and said he was busy today although we had a date to the aquarium."

"You wanted to see fish..." Alec nodded. "with your boyfriend?" Another nod. "No wonder he's tired of you; you're boring."

"Am not!" Alec yelled appalled.

"Are too!" Jace countered

"Am not!"

"Are too!"

"What is your problem then?" Alec asked rolling his eyes.

"Clary, totally just left me for Isabelle! I mean they went shopping! She could've been hanging out with me; we could've done something romantic," he whined.

"Since when were you romantic?"

"You're not a good therapist," Jace said glaring at Alec.

Alec shouted, "Since when was I your therapist!"

"You are! Might as well be Dr. Phil."

"Didn't he get booted?"

Jace groaned, "Who knows? And guess what, you're fired!"

"I never was hired!"

"Why are you still here?" Jace shouted.

"BECAUSE I LIVE HERE!"

"LIAR!"

Maryse walked downstairs. "You guys are acting like ten year olds."

"Are not!" Jace and Alec both shouted.

"Are too!" She shouted back.

"Nuh-ugh!" They disagreed

"Ugh-huh!"

"Nuh-ugh!"

"NUH-UGH!" Maryse said tricking them.

"UGH-HUH!" They both screamed.

"HA! You admitted it!" She snapped her fingers and walked away.

"Damn," Jace mumbled.

"Darn," Alec said.

"You're pathetic."

"NUH-UGH!"

"Don't start with me, Alec!" He walked away mumbling something about hating Alec and missing Clary.
