Chap 1

Clary POV

Beep beep beep. Ugh it can't be six am already. It was the first day back to school after summer. I got up and walk to my bathroom which was in my room. I looked at myself in the mirror. Red hair, green eyes and freckles, yup just me. I haven't change much in the summer.

The only excited thing that happen was that my mom, Jocelyn, divorced my dad, Valentine, and married her best friend, Luke. I have a brother, Jonathan. Ow btw my name is Clarissa but I go by Clary. So back to the story. Luke is owner of the biggest and successful Garroway's cars. They basically sell all kinds of cars. For my sixteenth birthday he gave me a black Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder (of course it was convertible).

Jonathan lives with my dad in New York, while me and my mom live with Luke in Los Angeles, California. Jonathan came to visit with my dad this summer and they stayed in Luke's guesthouse in the backyard. I am not lying when I say things weren't awkward at all. We would have a family, I mean everyone, sitting at the table and talking and laughing. I guess my parents just fell out of love and were just moving on. I miss my dad and brother but live goes on, besides I talk to them every day.

I went downstairs to have breakfast only to find our maid in the kitchen. "Hey Greta, where is mom and Luke?" I asked. "They are on the terrace having breakfast, they told me to tell you to go join them once you came downstairs." she said.

I went to the terrace and said good morning. I took a toast and said bye otherwise I will be late for my first day of school. Getting into my car, I was now in my driveway looking out on the road to see if I could get on it when a red Ferrari came racing down the street and after that a black Audi r8 and after that one the new Chevrolet Camaro. In the Ferrari was e guy, all I could see was that he had blond/golden hair, in the Audi was a girl with long hair and in the Camaro two guys.

"Bastards" I murmured. Anyway once on the road. I'm a girl but racing is my passion so now I was going pretty fast till I reached the lights. I was after the Ferrari and next to me was the two guys in camaro and before them the girl in the Audi. The two guys said hi and told me I had a nice car. I waved and them and screamed thanks because the guy in the Ferrari was making too much noise, not that I was complaining cause all of our cars sounded good.

When the lights went green we are starting racing until I realized that we were going the same way. I could see the school building from here. Alicante School. It was one of the highest ranked and priciest school in California. When we reached the parking lot all you could see was expensive cars. We parked next to each other. I stepped out of my car to be met white gold eyes. Gold met Green. We kept staring at each other until we heard a cough. We turned around to look at the girl.

"Isabelle Lightwood, but you can call me Izzy" she said.
"Clarissa Morgenstern, call me Clary" I said in return.

"That's my brother Alexander or Alec Lightwood and his boyfriend Magnus Bane. And that one is Jace Herondale." she said. I said hi to everyone and shook their hands. When I shook Jace's hand I felt sparks and I didn't know if he felt it to because he quickly but his hands in his leather jacket.

So you guys are new here? I asked. "Yeah, we used to live in New York, but we come here every summer."
Well I will walk you guys inside to get our schedule's. We walked inside and everyone was staring.

"Why is everyone staring at us?" Izzy asked. "Well let's just say I am one of the richest kids here in this school and everyone knows me." I said.
Just as I was about to explain that Luke is my stepdad, Maia, Jordan and Simon came walking down the hallway.

Maia and Jordan were dating and Simon was Simon. Simon was my best friend until he moved here when we were 7. Luckily that I kept in contact with him over the years that when I came to school 3 years ago that I knew someone. Simon gave me a hug and I could feel Jace's gaze one me. I turned around to see him looking at Simon and if looks could kill I'm pretty sure Simon would be dead.

We were on our way to get our schedule when someone bumped into me. When I looked up to see who it was, it was the player from our school. Sebastian Verlac. He has been trying to get me to date him for over a year already but I keep denying him that privilege.

When we arrived in the classroom to take our schedule , I realized that I haven't introduced anyone to each other. I quickly did that. I can see Simon looking at Izzy and Izzy the same at Simon. I was jumping inside or you can just say fangirling.

When we got our schedule's we had everything together. Except when I had art. Izzy, Simon, Alex and Magnus had Drama and Maia, Jordan and Jace had Latin.

Since it's the first day at school, on a Friday, we just had to come and pick up our schedule's and then we could leave. When we were on our way out. Simon asked if I could give him a ride, I was about to say yes when I remembered he was looking at Izzy. "Yo Izzy, can you give Simon a ride home? I have to go to my stepdad's work." I said. Izzy and Simon blushed until Izzy said "Yes, no problem.".

They got in her car and drove away. I was left standing there with Maia, Jordan, Alec, Magnus and Jace. Maia and Jordan said their goodbye's and got into Jordan's Green/Black Bentley. Alec and Magnus waved goodbye and got into the yellow Camaro. I was left standing there with Jace.

I was staring at Jace. I mean how can a guy look so perfect. He had golden hair and eyes. Who has golden eyes? His lips look so soft. Don't get me started on that body. Suddenly I realized I was staring and looked away. When I looked back at Jace he smirked and winked.

"Where do you live?" he asked. "Long Beach" I said. "Okay, race you there?" he asked.
Before I can answer he was already getting into his car. I did the same and we were now speeding on the road.

We arrived at the beach and stepped out of the car. Of course I won. He walked towards me and I was now trapped between him and my car.

"I never knew a girl can race like that" he said.
And he was now leaning in. Was he going to kiss me?
