Hello everybody!

This is my new fanfiction! If any of you have read my other story " She's Out Of My League", then you know that this story is complete Clace.

This chapter is just to test the waters to see what people think about it. I really hope that you enjoy it!

" Hurry up Strawberry!" 14 year old Jace yelled as he ran up the stairs into his room. He sat on the bed and waited for his best friend to come in. Clary jogged through the door way and bent over, her hands on her knees.

" How do you run so fast without losing your breath?" she complained as she sat next to him and nudged his shoulder. Just looking sat the two of them, you could tell that they were complete opposites.

Jace Herondale was golden. Not his behavior, he was a devil, but literally. He had golden blonde curls, amber eyes and tanned skin. He was extremely good looking, and he knew it. He was arrogant, yet all of the girls in the 8th grade fell for his charms. All except one.

Clary Fairchild. Bright emerald eyes, pale skin with a dusting of freckles across her nose, and curly red hair. She was sweet to everyone, but still had a feisty side.

So, you may be wondering how these two could be best friends.

Clary was the only girl that didn't fall for Jace's looks. Most people saw the arrogant Jace, the one that will wink at a group of girls and they would faint. But Clary saw the real Jace. The one that would use his chopsticks as walrus tusks whenever he ordered the Mu shu pork.

She was usually extremely quiet at school, and kept to herself. But Jace saw her crazy side. How she could eat a king size pack of twizzlers, a carton of birthday cake ice cream, and a milkshake without gaining an ounce. He also saw the aftermath of when she ate all of it. The sugar rush would last until 2am, then she was out like a light.

There were always rumors that they were dating, since they were practically attached at the hip, but they would always ignore them. But there was always a hint of excitement when they would hear these rumors, since they wanted it to be true.

They were both in love with each other, yet everyone knew it but them. They were completely oblivious. Jace knew that he wanted to be with Clary, but he just had to wait until the right moment to tell her that he was in love with her. He had the rest of their lives to tell her, so he didn't have to worry about it right now. They were going to be best friends for the rest of their lives.

Or so he thought.

So that was the first chapter! It was really just to give you some insight on their relationship, and there was even a cliffy for the big surprise in the next chapter. Ok it wasn't really a surprise since it's in the summary.

Please let me know what you think! Review!

Bye Bye Lovelies!
