I woke up to the sun shining in my face from my window next to my bed. It's another Saturday morning. My name is Clarissa Fray. But everybody calls me Clary. My mom and step-dad died in a car crash three years ago. My brother (Jonathon) and I were the only ones that made it out of that car crash alive. I have a pretty messed up childhood. I found out that my Mom was married to someone before she married my dad. Therefore, I had a long lost brother. Jonathon's father died from a heart attack four years ago. His name was Valentine Morgenstern.
I still have nightmares about that rainy night. All the blood, cries of pain, and then silence. The next thing I knew, I was in a hospital bed with my brother in the bed next to me.
I got out of bed and grabbed today's outfit. I exited my room. I headed to the bathroom. Jonathan and I live with the Lightwood's now. They adopted us after our parents died. Their names are Maryse and Robert. They have three kids. The oldest one is 18. His name is Alec. He is tall, has jet black hair, and piercing blue eyes. He's what you would call gorgeous. Their second oldest child is 17; like me. Her name is Isabelle. Izzy for short. She looks exactly like Alec. Except the fact that she has dark brown eyes. Their youngest son is Max. He's 9 years old and is obsessed with Manga. Just like my best friend Simon.
Simon is very tall, and also very nerdy. His glasses and his "I'm a Gamer" shirt just proves it. He's had a crush on Izzy for like forever. But he's too shy to ask her out. Izzy likes him too, but she won't make the first move. She thinks he likes Maia and not her. Maia is one of Simon's friends. They've known each other since they were little. Maia has made it pretty obvious that she likes Simon, but he's too blind to see it. And then there's my brother. What can I say? He's a boy. Boy's have their needs.Jonathan has no problem handling his 'needs' in public. It's like he's never heard of P.D.A before. He's the schools player. All ways has two girls in his arms at once. Even though he's a jerk, he's probably the best brother I could ask for.
Once I got to the bathroom I stripped off my clothes. I turned the water in the shower on high and stepped. I let the water relax my muscles. I would stay like this all day, but Maryse said she had 'big' news to tell us. Maryse and Robert are very lovely. But at the same time, they can be very strict. I try very hard not to get on their bad side. Not like that's ever been a problem for me. But if Maryse called a family meeting (including Simon) this should be pretty big. After I finished washing up, I stepped out of the shower. I put on my clothes and brushed my teeth. I threw my dirty clothes in the hamper, and headed to the kitchen.
When I arrived, there were pancakes, Bacon, Sausage, eggs, and a bottle of Orange juice in the middle of the table. Everyone was already seated at the table. Simon sat next to Izzy, Maryse and Robert sat on either ends of the table. I took a seat between Max and Jonathon. Everyone dug in.
"Okay, now that everyone is here, Robert and I have some important news we have to share." She said very seriously. Everyone looked up from their plates and gave their eyes full attention on them.
"What's wrong?" Max asked.
"Nothings wrong it's just that...um..." She stuttered. Oh, yea. Something was wrong. Maryse never stutters. Robert noticed this and stepped in.
"Do you guys know who Jace Wayland is?" He asked.
"Do we know who Jace Wayland is? Of Course! How could we not?" Izzy said. Being the Drama Queen she is. Simon rolled his eyes.
Simon and I hatedJace Wayland. I can sing way better than him. Jace Wayland is the world's Biggest Teen Pop Star. He's so full of himself. Sure, he's hot and his music is great, but he is such a jerk. I don't know why people are so hypnotized by him. Maybe his voice does sound amazing, but that doesn't mean he has to be an Asshat. To be honest, I actually knowJace Wayland. Our parents used to be best friends. They went to college together. We immediately became friends. Jonathon doesn't know Jace because he was with Valentine at the time. He used to be nice, caring, and even sweet. But that was before his parents died. Ever since then, he became the jerk he is today.
"Why is Jace so important?" I asked while putting a piece of Bacon in my mouth.
"Because he's staying here." She said slowly. I literally spit out my Bacon.
"What!" Izzy and I said at the same time. She said it as if she was exited. However, I said it as if I was shocked.
"Why is he coming here!" I said.
"The same reason you are." She said.
"Yea, but his parents died ten years ago." I said confused.
"Wait." Simon said. "How did you know his parents died ten years ago? I thought you didn't like Wayland. I didn't expect you to be one of his crazy stalker fans."
I blushed. "I don't like him." I reassured him.
"Yea, but that still doesn't explain how you know his parents died ten years ago." He said. I blushed again. Everyone looked toward me. I might as well just tell them now anyways.
"Because I know Jace Wayland." I said. Izzy, Jonathon, and Simon's eyes popped out.
Max just said "That's so cool." Jace had always been his role model. Why? Only god knows.
"How come you didn't tell us!" Alec asked.
I shrugged. "I don't know. I didn't think it was important." To be honest, I really didn't.
"Didn't. Think. It. Was. Important!" Izzy said." Of course it's important!"
"How do you know Jace?" Robert asked. Ignoring Izzy's comment.
"Our parents were best friends. Therefore, we used to be best friends. Then his parents died in a plane crash. He moved in with his Aunt and that's all I know. Never heard from him again." I whispered the last part.
Maryse cleared her throat. "Well, his Aunt died of Cancer yesterday, and he has no family left. So, they decided to bring him back to his home town. He will be staying with us until he is 18." She said.
"When is he coming?" Max asked excited.
"One week." She said. Great.I got up from the table and headed back to my room. I locked the door and went to my bed. I starred at the ceiling.I have one week to prepare for the arrival of my former best friend. One week to face my biggest nightmare. One week to face my former crush. One week to face all of my childhood memories. The ones I never talked about. The ones that I tried hard to forget.
Should I continue? And throughout the story, I'll put up different point of views. So, it won't only be about Clary and Jace. There will be some drama between Simon/Maia/Izzy. Alec didn't come out the closet yet, so he hasn't met Magus yet, but he will. And of course, the evils plans from Aline and Kaelie.
