Oops. It's been a month. Really really sorry. At first I was just being lazy then I had like tons of homework. Which currently I am procrastinating. Yeah, tomorrow is going to suck.

Thanks for all the amazingly wonderful reviews, they made my day ;)

Disclaimer: I am not Cassandra Clare. Shocking, right?

If Clary had thought first period was horrible, she would have been wrong. Second period was dreadful. As she walked towards the class, after failing to escape from Jace, she was greeted by Isabelle, who already seemed to hate her. For some reason she didn't take nicely to the fact that Clary had helped Jace escape her wrath earlier.

"Jace, I'm going to kill you when we get home," Isabelle had cheerfully said.

"Not if I beat you to it," Jace had instantly replied. Clary didn't want to know how hard it must be for their parents. To have to live with Jace would be hard, he was just one of those people who was full of themselves. But to have to put up with Isabelle too? That would be retched. Clary felt bad for Alec, she almost wanted to apologize for almost killing him for calling her a mundane. Almost.

"Miss Fray?" the teacher asked calling Clary out of her mindset.

"Yes, ma'am?"

"I'd appreciate if you didn't stare out the window all the time. Maybe you'd get some work done for once." Clary felt her cheeks flame and she sank down low in her seat.

"Sorry," she mumbled burying her face in her hands. It was supposed to be a good first day. It wasn't supposed to suck as much as it currently did.

"Forget about her," she heard Jace whisper in her ear, "she probably forgot to take her happy pills this morning." Clary stifled a laugh, she looked up to see Jace leaning towards her with a smile on his face. "You okay?" he asked softly, so softly that she couldn't be positive that he had spoken. When he continued to stare at her she nodded. The teacher shot them a glare causing Clary to turn away from Jace and begin her work. The minutes seemed to tick by but finally the bell rang. As she made her way to the door Jace and Isabelle surrounded her, one on either side.

"Now what?" Jace asked.

"Now we have break," Izzy said with an imperious look on her face.

"Umm…I'm going to go now. Jace, your next class is just down the hall. Three doors to the left," Clary said, trying to get out of the way for the fight that was sure to break out between Isabelle and Jace.

"No way are you ditching me. Nope. No way," Jace said as he hurried to catch up with her.

"Well I'm going to see my friends, so why don't you go off and find Alec? He'll save you from Isabelle if that's what you want." Clary rolled her eyes and tried to get away once more, this time she was held back by Isabelle.

"Clary," Isabelle said, "believe it or not I like you. So if we're going to be friends—and trust me we are—you need to call me Izzy. Got it?" Clary glanced at Izzy, friends? Really? She internally sighed, they wouldn't want to be friends with her if they knew Valentine was her father. They'd hate her. Her body didn't seem to care what her mind thought though because before she realized it she was smiling and nodding.

"I do have to go see Simon though. I haven't seen him since I got back from…I haven't seen him in months. He'd hate me if he knew I was purposely ignoring him. He'd make me watch Gossip Girl with him again…." Clary mentally slapped herself. She almost said Idris, she almost spilled the beans.

"Gossip Girl?" Jace asked with one eyebrow raised. Clary mentally slapped herself again, she told them Simon watched Gossip Girl? He was going to hate her now.

"Who watches Gossip Girl?" Maia asked walking towards them with Simon by her side. Clary was sure she looked guilty because Simon was looking at her with a murderous glare. Trying to ignore his glare Clary looked towards Jace and Izzy, who both looked confused and a little ticked off.

"What are you doing here?" Jace asked, realization dawned on Clary. They may not be able to tell that she was a shadowhunter but the fact that Maia was a werewolf was painstakingly obvious.

"What do you mean what is she doing here?" Simon asked. "She's here for the fantastic public education." Clary's chest sank, it was just like Simon to get involved in things above his head.

"Why don't I talk to you over there?" Maia asked, indicating to an unoccupied area just out of hearing range. Izzy nodded and shot a smile towards Simon, who blushed. "I'll meet you over there in a second." When Jace looked like he would object Izzy grabbed his arm and yanked him over.

"Don't tell them about me," Clary said to Maia, who raised an eyebrow before nodding.

"What was that about?" Simon asked.

"Nothing," Clary said putting on a false smile. "How was your summer?" Clary then zoned out while Simon began telling her of all the names the band had vetoed. Her gaze drifted over to where Maia, Jace, and Izzy where standing. She wondered what Maia could be telling them to prevent them from reporting her to their parents, or the Clave.

"Clary?" Simon asked, she was dimily aware that Simon was saying her name but the greater part of her mind couldn't find the urge to care. "Clary, while your not paying attention to the wonderful me I am going to get some things off my chest. You know the recent killings? Well, I was responsible. In my spare time I am a serial killer. Shocking?"

"SIMON!" Maia practically screamed, "Don't make jokes like that. It's not right! It's crude." Maia's voice had brought Clary out of her trance and she began to wonder what Simon had said that could have made Maia angry.

"Sorry," Simon began to say raising his hands up in the air, "I didn't mean it."

"Of course you didn't," Maia said but her tone was considerable softer.

So this chapter was kinda short. I really am sorry about that. I promise that'll update sooner. It'll also be longer. Please review because the more review's I get the longer it'll be. How does that sound?
