This is my first story so plz tell me what you think. Ok so here we go my first story hope you like it.
Disclaimer- The last time I checked I was not Cassandra Clare, that means I do not own The Mortal Instruments.
I was laying on my bed trying to draw the field outside my window, and it just wasn't working. I rolled over throwing my sketchpad off my bed onto the floor. I sighed closing my eyes listening to the music on the radio when I hear.
"Clary!" It was my mom. I hoped off my bed and walked down the stairs trying to figure out what I had done this time.
"Yes? What did I do this time?" I asked. My mom was siting in the living room on one of the couches. With a look that said this was not going to be good.
"You didn't do anything" She paused laughing. "Well I don't think you did anything. Come over here and sit down I have some thing to tell you."
"Ok," I said siting on a chair across from her. I was getting worried. "What's this about?"
She looked like she was dreading what she was about to say. "Clary, sweety were moving."
I busted out laughing, but when I looked at my mom she was completely serious. I stopped laughing just as fast if not faster then I stared. "You've got to be kidding me! We've lived here my whole life! We can't just leave!" I was in complete shock. I could not believe what I was hearing! She couldn't be serious!
Usually, when my mom says she has to tell me something it's more like 'your grounded' not we're moving. I knew this was not going to be good. "I'm sorry sweety, but I just don't like living here." She looked like there was more to the story then just not like living here, but I got the feeling she wasn't about to tell me.
"Where are we moving?"
"New York."
"What? Why? It's not like we have any family there. Why do you want to move so far away? And it's the middle of the school year! We can't just leave." I was really annoyed that she was doing this. In the middle of the school year no less!
"I'm sorry hunny, but we need to leave. I just don't think I was cut out for life in Oklahoma. And I have a friend in New York that's going to let us stay with him untell I find us a place to live."
"But you lived here for 16 years with not problem. So why do we have to leave now? And when are we leaving?"
"We're leave first thing in the morning. There some boxes in the garage so you can pack your stuff." And with that she got up and went up stairs probably to finish packing.
I sat there for a few minutes in shock. We where really moving.
I'd gotten most of my clothes in the boxes I'd gotten out of the garage when my phone vibrated. I grabbed it off my bed to see that my best friend Courtney was calling. I flipped it open as I sat down on my bed.
"Hello?"
"Clary it took you long enough! I thought we where going shopping today?"
"Ya about that. I can't."
"Why not?"
"I've got to pack. I'm kind of moving." I said the last part in a whisper.
"Say again? It sounded like you said your moving." I could tell she was getting mad.
"Ya I am. My mom 'doesn't think she's cut out for living in Oklahoma.' " I tryed mimking her voice. It didn't work.
"So when are you leaving? We have to have a going away party."
"I'm leaving tomorrow."
"What! Why didn't you tell me sooner? I can't get a party ready that soon! And what about school? We have a huge test tomorrow!"
"Sorry I didn't tell you sooner I just found out myself not three hours ago. Ya I know I don't know why my mom thinks leaving in the middle of the school year was a good idea. Well at least I don't have to worry about failing." We both laughed at that.
"Your so lucky you don't have to take the test tomorrow! I'm probably going to make a F! I wish my mom made me move, but I could never get that lucky. So where are you moving to."
"New York."
"That's so-" she was cut off by yelling in the back ground. "Hey I have to go. I'll talk to you later ok?"
"Ya sure. Bye"
"Bye"
I sighed closing my phone and falling back on my bed. I had no idea what was going thro my moms head when she thought moving was a good idea. I got back to work trying to put all my stuff in the boxes.
After I had put all my stuff into boxes I asked my mom if I could go say good by to Courtney because we were leaving at 6 (ya I can't believe it ether 6 in the morning!) and I wouldn't have time to say good bye to her.
After I left I txted Courtney to see if she could meet me at the park that was the half way point between her house and mine. She txted back saying "ok ill be there soon." I drove my car over and was waiting in the parking lot for her when my phone went off. I pulled it out of my pocket. It was a txt from Courtney.
"Hey theres been a change of plans I cant go :( I have to take my little bro 2 a b-ball game. srry"
I sighed how did I know something like that was going to happen?
"It's ok :( i'll call u when I get to my new house."
I put my phone back in my pocket. And got back in my car and drove home. After I got home I said good night to my mom and went to bed. I fell quickly to sleep thankfully. It was going to be a long day tomorrow.
Ok there it is. Do you love? Hate it? plz tell me just hit the button and tell me what you thought.
