I stared at my pale ,timid reflection in the mirror. "you WILL be the person you were before Luke died".

And I believed it. I put on my clothes and walked out of our new apartment into a new city with an Uber 15 minutes away and a determination to be the old me.
the Uber dropped me off at the school with only seconds to spare, and I frantically zipped around the school trying to find my new classroom, already being five minutes late to my first class .I jog quickly around the corner trying not to drop my backpack and ran straight into a tall blond stranger .I put the backpack on my shoulders ,tossed my thankfully lidded coffee in the air ,then caught his falling books in one hand and my falling coffee in the other , thanking god for my quick reflexes. The stranger looked at me in awe. "What?!" I asked sipping my coffee ,trying to cover the blush that spread across my face. What is this handsome stranger staring at me for? "So do you roam these halls at 7:55 in the morning often?' he recovered ,leaning on the lockers and asking with a smirk .I could already tell he was one of those arrogant people." Yeah smart ass ,I just sit here waiting for golden boys like you to make me late to class.' I rolled my eyes . His smirk became wider and he said 'I can make you late to class any day you want me to.' I kicked him in the stomach and wait till he's doubled over to say 'I can make you early to hell any day you want me to' I shoved his books into his stomach ,furthering his pain and walked away smiling devilishly. I slipped my phone out of my pocket.8:15.I'd missed the first 25 minutes of class wasting time on stupid jocks like him. I looked up and happily saw the room number I'd been looking for. I walked in. 'Well princess, how kind it was of you to allow us to use your ever so precious time' the ugly teacher said. 'You're welcome' I smiled sweetly. 'And what is it you're wearing princess?' I sighed .'Well for starters ,don't call me princess, call me Clarissa. I'm pretty sure I'm wearing jeans and a tee shirt like everyone else.' 'Yes, but they're quite ugly' he sneers .'Says the guy who's wearing a blue duck shirt with matching socks.' the class laughs and the bell rings putting me back into the confusing halls. A beautiful girl walks up to me laughing. 'That was hilarious newbie,I can tell were gonna be great friends.' I smiled .'I'm Clary' 'Izzy ,so hey, where's your next class?' three introductions a math class and a laughing Izzy later ,she invites me to sit with her at lunch. I follow her until I see smart ass sitting at the table we're headed to. As we sit down a the table I ask ,totally ignoring smart ass, 'Why do you sit with this loser?' Izzy practically choked on her milk from how hard she was laughing. He looked up. 'I'm right here idiot' he sneered. I laughed. 'No shit Sherlock!' I said, causing Izzy to giggle even harder. Once she calmed down , Izzy said' Wow. That must be refreshing.' Izzy said to Jace. 'Why!?' I asked her ,wondering how the hell that would be 'refreshing'.'Jacey here is used to girls falling all over him'. I looked him up and down slowly and snorted. 'Good luck with that detective' I said to him. 'I'm probably hotter than your last boyfriend' he said challenging me. I snorted again .'HA!, your not even half as cute as my current boyfriend' I smirked ,showing Izzy my screensaver .She dropped her milk carton. ' Damn, she's not kidding' she whispered.I laughed as Jace stormed away from the table, holding up the middle finger. I frowned, slightly sad to see him leave
