CHAPTER:1
Clary:P.O.V
I wake up to my dad shaking me awake in the morning "Wake up Clare-Bare. we have to be at the airport by seven." he says. Then I remember that I'm going back to New York today. "Okay give me twenty minutes." I reply. He kisses me on the head then leaves the room.
My parents got divorced when I was twelve so my brother, Jonathan, stayed with my mom while I stayed with my dad. It wasn't a fun time for us I think, still remembering all those nights crying into Jonathans shirt while mom and dad screamed at each other downstairs. It always ended with one of them running out of the house then coming back the next morning acting like nothing happened for our sake. Like we couldn't hear them throwing vases at each other then crying themselves to sleep afterwards.
Me and dad have spent the last three years traveling around the world together. France, Italy, Russia, Spain, you name it, I've been there. He says its because he wants me to know about all the different countries and languages, but I know its because he just wants to get his mind off of mom. I mean, yeah they split up but you can't really stop loving someone can you? Recently he got a job that takes up most of his time witch leaves me alone most of the time.
That is why I'm going back to New York to live with my mom and Jonathan. I tried telling him that I'm fine with being alone but of course he won and now I'm getting ready to go to the airport.
I put on some black tights and a green crop top sweater that says 'WANTED' on it. Then I put my thick red hair in a messy bun and slap on some mascara and eyeliner. I go down stairs, slip on my black converse and head out the door to meet dad in the car and head off to the airport.

"Well, I can't go with you any further than this." Dad says.
"Daddy, you still love her don't you?" I ask.
He looks at me with a pained smile and says "I never stopped loving her."
"Will you try with her again?" I ask hopefully.
"I just might, Clare-Bear." He answers.
"Promise you'll come visit sometime?" I say.
"Yes. And I promise to try and call whenever I can." He says.
I give him one last hug, a kiss on the cheek and say "I love you, dad." then head off to airport security.
