Chapter 1

"Mommy, I'm hungry can I have pancakes for breakfast?"

Clary opens her eyes to see her five-year-old son Eden. He had curly strawberry blonde hair, and big emerald green eyes identical to hers. She smiled at the anxious look her son gave her.

"Of course sweetheart, just give me a moment to get ready."

Her son jumped off her bed and ran into the kitchen waiting for her arrival. Clary stood up from her bed and started to trot over to the bathroom she and Eden shared. She flipped the light switch and looked at her reflection in the mirror. Her flaming red hair a big mess as always and she could see bags under her eyes. From a combination of taking care of Eden and staying up late at night working on paintings. When Clary had found out she was pregnant with Eden she was only 15 years old. She had a huge future ahead of her as an artist. Then she had met Eden's father, he had swept her off her feet. She fell in love with him and she thought that he had as well, but he only wanted to get into her pants. When she told him that she was pregnant with his kid, he laughed in her face and said that there was no way in hell that this was his kid. Her heart had shattered when the words had left his mouth. She had run off in tears after that. She had gone straight home and with her luck, her parents saw her and stopped her.

Flashback

"Clary hun what's wrong, why are you crying?" her mother, Jocelyn Morgenstern, asked with concern written all over her face. Clary looked up at her mom and dad tears still pooling in her eyes. She had to tell them the truth. Maybe they will understand and help her out. She looked into her mother's eyes and took a deep breath.

"Mom, dad I'm pregnant." Clary's parent's eyes widened with shock and disbelief.

"Clary stop joking around this is not funny." Jocelyn said with anger in her eyes.

"Mom I'm not joking, this for real"

"Get out"

"But mom I-"

"I don't want to hear it. No child of mine would have gotten pregnant." Jocelyn said cutting her off. Clary shook her head in disbelief and turned to her father, Valentine Morgenstern.

"Daddy don't let her do this, I'll have nowhere to go if you do" Valentine looked back and forth between his daughter and wife. He finally was able to put together a thought.

"Jocelyn, don't you think you're being unreasonable. Maybe we should hear her out, for all we know this might not even be her fault." Jocelyn shot daggers at her husband.

"How could you be siding with her, I'm your wife!"

"Yes but she is my daughter as well-"

"No Valentine, she lost the privilege of being our daughter when she got herself pregnant!"

"We should still-"

"No, its either me our her Valentine. Make your choice." Jocelyn cut him off with an angry and firm tone. Valentine looked at both his daughter and wife. His daughter's eyes filled with sadness. While his wife was shooting daggers at him. He could not leave his wife he loved her too much, but his daughter was in a bad place right now. Thinking it over he had made his decision.
"Clary I'm so sorry but you need to leave." Valentines voice shook as he was talking to his daughter. Clary snapped her head back to her dad, her eyes wide with disbelief and hurt. She could not believe that her parents were kicking out their only daughter. She couldn't think for a moment. When she was finally able to think again, she just stormed up stairs to her room and started packing clothes, art supplies, and the money that she had collected over the years from birthdays, and Christmas. She stormed back downstairs with all her bags. She stalked towards the door about to turn the handle she turned around to face her parents.

"I thought you guys would understand but I guess not. So I guess this is good-bye." She slammed the door before her parents could even respond to her.

End of flashback

After that she went to her older brother, Jonathans apartment. He had just started his freshman year in college. He was left speechless when she had retold him the events of today. Clary had stayed with her brother for a couple of months until, her mother found out and told Jonathan to kick her out our else he would be written out of the will. Jonathan had no choice but to oblige and tell Clary that she had to leave. From there Clary had bought her own apartment in New York with the money she had taken from home and from selling some of her paintings. A couple months after that Clary had Eden, the center of her universe. Clary finished high school online and was able to become an artist after all. She might have been able to make more if she had a degree but she had Eden to worry about.

When she was done reminiscing about her horrid past, Clary brushed her teeth and started to work on the mess sitting on her head. When she tamed her hair, Clary changed into black skinny jeans that hugged her legs and hips just right and a fitted green V-neck shirt. She exited the bathroom to talk go and make her son his breakfast. Once she was done with the pancakes she set them in front of Eden and he devoured them as if he hadn't eaten in days. Clary chuckled to herself as she noticed maple syrup dripping from his mouth. She wiped it off.

"Mommy, I was wondering if I could play sports this year" Eden had asked, his voice filled with curiosity. Clary looked at her son, he had been begging her to play some kind of sport since he was three. Clary sighed and looked at her son.

"Well Eden, it would depend on what kind of sport," Eden thought for a while putting his finger under his chin in a thinking position.

"How about football?" Clary did not like the idea of Eden playing football. Jonathan had played football and he got hurt very often. Eden was looking at her with those big green eyes of his. Clary just could not deny her son of anything when he used that face.

"I guess so Eden" Clary told her son who was bouncing off the walls when he heard her words. She giggled at how adorable her son was. When Eden had finally calmed down Clary took him into his room to get him changed. When she was done changing Eden, Clary ushered him out the door to go and sign up for football in the park nearby.
