Chapter 1: I Never Cry
"Mum? Mum? Mum, what the hell are you doing?"
I yelled at my Mum, my sister was crying upstairs but I needed to take care of Mum first. Although I was the youngest in the family, I was the strongest. Mum ran upstairs and I quickly caught up to her; my feet sore and my face wet from crying, but I was too late, Mum had already taken hold of Rebecca and was currently hugging her. I knew this side of Mum wouldn't last long, Rebecca had been with Dad for the past seven years, she didn't know Mum like I did. Since dad left, Mum was diagnosed with a bipolar disorder, she wasn't the same when he left; she would become angry within few seconds, throw things, beat me up, and then become a crying mess, it was confusing but I've grown up with it.
Rebecca was still crying, and I knew Mum was getting angrier, the more Rebecca cried. I tip-toed up behind Mum and gripped her shoulder as a firm warning, her entire body shifted and became tense and what small muscles she had was like iron, her hand swung round, and hit me right in the jaw, I staggered backward and almost lost my balance near the top of the stairs..
"No."
I sat up right in bed, sweat pouring off me in sheets, my hazelnut coloured hair was soaked with sweat and stuck to my forehead, I rested my head in my hands, forcing my breathing to even out, and calm down; that was a dream...well, the past anyway, and right here in this bright glittery room was the present. I promptly grabbed my 'Harry-potter' glasses, swung my legs over the side of my Naruto sheeted bed and swallowed the fear and panic as it began to rise in my throat. From across the room, the tossing and turning of a boy with the occasional moan of 'no', 'dad' and 'let me go' filled the eerily quiet room.
I got up and swiftly stepped over the mess, and went to go wake him up, if he hadn't got there before I did. The top half of his body was glistening with sweat, and he was crying fiercely, making him shake all over. I gathered him into my arms, and whispered that he was okay, he wasn't there, and he was with me. His sobs made me think why I never cried. I didn't cry when Dad left, I didn't cry when Rebecca left, I didn't cry when Mum hit me...I didn't cry when they died.
"Magnus?"
His nose was in the crook of my shoulder, and I felt him nod, I knew he was embarrassed. "You know, there's nothing to be embarrassed about Mags',"
He laughed silently, but didn't say anything, he looked up at me, and his brown slightly green eyes pleaded with my dull brown ones, and I understood. I got off his bed and grabbed my acoustic guitar, I perched myself on my bed and he wiped his eyes, I played the opening bars of 'Carolyn' a song that I think both me and Magnus held close to our hearts, I knew we would never speak of this again.
I knew a lot of thing, but I was sure on this.
I had been weeks since I've had the nightmare, although Magnus still had his nightmares, I was fine with being woken up. It was easier soothing him and his demons, then trying to solve my own, It was day two of Magnus' senior year and my junior year when he came up to our room late. I was busy watching Naruto, but he came through the door with a loud thump, I pretended I was terrified but gave him a grin, I switched it off while Mags' was in the bathroom, I grabbed an old copy of Bleach and waited for him; when he strutted in wearing sweat pants, and my black T-shirt with bold writing 'Sexy and I know it' I clapped and he laid down in his bed.
"Simon?"
"Hmm? What's up Magnus?"
"Sorry I keep waking you up,"
I chuckled and threw my manga on the floor, and recited what I usually told him i my cherry voice.
"Don't worry, Magnus. We all have our troubles and pasts, just go to sleep and everything will be okay!"
Liar!
I overslept. Why was it when ever I overslept it was most likely to either be Monday or Wednesday. God, I am so late! I stopped in my tracks, I just remembered that I'm not supposed to use the lords name in vain, Mum always taught me that. I shook my head and the fast approaching memories, and went back to my steady pace. When I got to the school it was lunch, fun. I casually wandered in, hoping no one would see me, and ask why I was late and skipped first period, but to my dismay and luck they spotted me; Sebastian, Jonathon, and Raphael; Alec also had wandered into the group at some point. The whole gang is going to humiliate me in front of the whole canteen. I ducked my head and hunched my shoulders as I walked past them, praying silently that they would just leave me alone, but this was me, I attracted bad luck like a moth to a flame.
"Hey, Jews here!"
I groaned internally, that was their favourite word for me; Jew, I always had a feeling Raphael would use that against me. I had him for a parter in biology last year, and we had to find stuff out about our partners, needless to say, ever since then he and the group had called me Jew. I turned around a plastered on a fake smile and laughed it off; like always.
"Hey, friends!"
A couple of their eyes narrowed at that, Alec smirked and Camille giggled, though two were okay, Although they gave me swirlys last year, since then they find me amusing, but they leave me alone...most of the time. I looked behind me seeing Clary mouthing 'dont start anything' I wanted to laugh a little at that, like I, Simon Lewis would start anything with these dicks? I started to walk away, but was pulled back, then pushed to the ground; I deathly silence washed over the whole area, they we above me with their million dollar smiles and there terrifying gazes, I got on my knees in search of my glasses that had disappeared from my face, when I heard voices, but I kept looking.
"I'm so disappointed in you Alec,"
My arm was grabbed and I was pulled away from them, when we finally stopped the person gave me my glasses back, I slid them back on and it almost felt like a slap in the face at who I saw standing in front of me. Her beautiful long Inky hair that fell in delicate waves and curls over her shoulders, her expensive clothing that clung to her body. her startling honey brown eyes and her perfect lips; there wasn't a doubt in my mind at who was standing in front of me; Isabelle Lightwood. My mouth wanted to hit the floor but I held in place, barely.
"Sorry about my brother, he's not always like that,"
I wanted to laugh at that, but I could tell from her voice she meant it, I chewed on a sneer and replied softly:
"Don't worry about that, I'm Simon by the way,"
"I'm Isabelle."
I wanted to say that I knew hat, but I sounded a bit creepy, so I settled for smiling at her, and surprisingly she smiled back.
