Clary is in a family she despises and since the death of her mother has refused to speak. The Morgenstern's have moved house and with Clary and Jonathan now going to the same school as the Lightwoods and all of the other MI characters sparks are sure to fly...AH mainly Jace and Clary (but other usual pairings too)

I knew I wouldn't make it in time, I could feel his footsteps fast approaching, nevertheless I had to try. Forcing my legs to move even faster I sprinted down the hallway as fast as I could possibly manage whilst ignoring the searing pain up my leg, reminders of my punishment should I not escape. The door to my freedom was coming ever closer but as I reached my hand out as far as it could go, my fingertips brushing the cool metal, I felt a sharp claw into my shoulder swiftly crushing any possibility of getting away. I struggled fruitlessly as my captor pressed his body against mine, trapping me completely, his face inches from my own. "

"You're mine now, little sister" was the last thing I heard as I looked into his coal black eyes.

Clary immediately sat up and gasped, her chest rising and falling at an alarming rate as she tried to steady her breathing. It's not real...It's not real…were the thoughts repeatedly going through her mind while she ran her fingers through her hair, trying to shake back into reality. Despite her efforts, the tingling sensation she had felt in her sleep alerting her to danger was still present, preventing her from calming down completely. He suspicions were confirmed when her gaze swept across her room before finally resting on the figure sitting in an armchair.

"Quite recovered are we dear sister? I must admit despite the fun in watching you squirm in your bed it time to prepare for school. I took the liberty of packing your bag with everything you would need and making you breakfast."

Clary scowled at the mocking tone of her brother and got out of bed, attempting to shake the vulnerability caused by having him in her room watching her sleep. Trying desperately to keep an indifferent mask plastered on her face, she manoeuvred past the armchair to the door leading to her bathroom so that the distance between her and Jonathan was greater. However unprepared for the leg extended across her route she tripped, a cry of surprise escaping her lips as the mask slipped, her hands extending into anything that would stop her fall.

With lightning speed Jonathan had stood up, capturing Clary in his arms as she crashed into his chest. Placing her wrists in between her hands he carefully looked at her face, and noting the fear in her eyes smiled whispering "Don't worry, it was only a nightmare, it's over now." before abruptly letting her go and walking out her room.

Resting her body against the door frame Clary finally allowed herself to relax a bit, knowing that for now, the danger had past. No, she thought bitterly, the nightmare has only just begun.

"Jace for the last time hurry up, we're going to be late!" came the irritated shouts of Isabelle Lightwood as she pounded her hand against his locked bedroom door. However what she was not prepared for was a very underdressed Aline Penhallow opening the door, and with a sickly smile relaying Jace's reply,

"He heard you, and we'll make our own way to school, thank you all the same."

Isabelle glared at the girl, infuriated as the door slammed in her face. Just because our parents aren't home he thinks he can do whatever he wants she furiously thought, spinning on her heel as she walked to her brother's room, dragging him out of their house. After a confused Alec was filled in on the situation Isabelle started the car and drove off to school, trying to ignore the images of her brother and Aline flitting through her brain.

"It's only because he's trying to piss off her father," the outburst came directed at Alec, "he can't actually LIKE that shallow cow".

Alec sighed, nodding his head, more concerned with what the consequences of Jace's actions would be if Aline's father knew where she was last night. He continued to tune out Izzy's ramblings about 'dating' the principal's daughter and instead focussed on preparing himself for school once again, avoiding thoughts of the mysterious guy he had seen around town just a few days before whilst shopping for groceries before the embarrassment crashed over him again at his actions.

"Oh, sorry," Alec said as his fingers brushed another's while reaching for the last carton of milk, "didn't see you there."

He turned to see his competition for the only remaining milk as his eyes rested upon the most beautiful guy he had ever seen, rendering him completely speechless as his catlike green and yellow eyes winked at him.

"Er…if you want..to have it then..you can take..it" Alec managed to splutter out attempting to form a coherent sentence whilst grabbing the milk and holding it against his chest.

"Really? Well I know I want to have it, and if you SAID I could take it.." his hand reached out and grabbed the milk, sliding it down Alec's chest before placing it in is trolley. With another flirtatious wink he continued to walk down the aisle and as Alec sighed and shook his head he continued shopping.

Alec snapped out of his thoughts, not wanting them to travel to the moment when he was taking the bags to the car when he knew it was too late, they were surfacing anyway.

"Shit!" He had loudly exclaimed, watching the groceries spill everywhere as two of his bags simultaneously broke as he desperately scrambled to try and scoop everything up. He felt the presence of someone helping and looked up to see a box of tampons in the person's hand. Alec could feel his face turning bright red as his eyes travelled up to see the same guy who had taken his milk, a wide grin on his face as he placed the box in an intact bag.

"They're not mine..they're my sisters. Well obviously they're not mine but I suppose you wouldn't know who I had bought them for, it could have been my girlfriend of my mum…" He abruptly put a stop to his speech feeling incredibly awkward as barely spoke to strangers let alone ramble obsessively about his sister's menstrual cycle.

Alec put his face in his hands as a fresh wave of embarrassment enveloped him, especially having his sister sit next to him in the car. As they pulled into the parking lot he looked up at the familiar scene and shook himself out of his daze, it was time for a new year of school, and Alec had a feeling it would be the most exciting one yet.
