Chapter 2
As Izzy and I approached my apartment we started to talk about our lives and learned about each other. I found out that Izzy has two brothers Alec the eldest and Max who actually died recently. She told me that she can't cook but she can bake. I just told her the basics Simon is my best friend my mom and Luke and I told her about my brother Sebastian who now lives in Illinois. When we finally made it to my apartment I felt my ring buzz and knew there was trouble up ahead. I tensed and reached into my jacket for my dagger regretting not bringing my sword.
When we got to my door I heard them before I saw them but I managed to stab the hell hound in the head and push Izzy out the way before the second could take a bite out of her arm. I lunged for my fallen blade and turned towards the second in time to see a golden whip wrapped around its neck before the whip squeezed so hard its head popped right off. I looked to see whom was the owner of the whip to come face to face with my date.
"You're a shadow hunter?!" we both yelled at the same time. Iz pulled in her whip while I wiped off my blade and opened the door to my apartment and locked the door after us. I went to my kitchen and grabbed us some beers.
"So you're a shadow hunter?" I handed her a beer and nodded. I sat down on the couch and patted the cushion next to me and watched her throw herself down as we both kicked off our heels.
"How have I never seen you before?" I took a deep breath and turned so that I was facing her
"I lived in Idris my whole life until I was 18 and then I moved to New York and got this place and I've been living here for three years." She nodded for a while before putting her head down
"Idris is where max was killed two years ago and I haven't had the courage to go back yet. It was my fault he died and I cant… I cant go back without thinking about him." I put my arm around Izzy as she cried into my neck. I played with her hair until she calmed down and sat back on the couch.
"Sorry for crying on you." I told her it was fine and I would always be there to comfort her.
"Can I ask what happened Iz?" she nodded and told me how her family was supposed to be on vacation and her and Max were home alone when someone charged into the house and while she tried to over power the man he hit her on the head putting her into a coma and when she woke up they told her it was a trader who needed a life of an innocent and so he killed max. I felt horrible for Izzy.
"Izzy it wasn't your fault you were almost killed to." She got up and threw her beer across the room before turning to me "Yah I got to live but why me and not him?! I was supposed to protect him! He died holding one of my sweaters! How do you think that makes me feel!" I stood up and wrapped my arms around her once again letting her cry on me.
"I know it hurts but I am so grateful that your alive." We sat down again but I put my head in her lap and felt her play with my hair and scratch my scalp.
"So is Simon a shadow hunter to?"
"Yah he and I grew up together in Idris but he moved about a year before me and I would visit him until he convinced me to just move." After a couple minutes of comfortable silence I got up and put on a movie for background.
"So is Mia a shadow hunter and does Simon know?"
"Yah they know about each other but what I find weird is that they didn't mention to either of us that the other was a shadow hunter?" I shrugged that is odd unless Simon knew something would upset me or Izzy, I guess ill just have to ask him later.
With that final question we settled down to watch the movie I had put on and after watching Izzy doze off a couple of times I pulled her up and lead her towards my room noticing how adorable she is when she's sleepy.
"I can just get a taxi Clary, its no biggy." I pulled out two over sized shirts and a pair of shorts handing a shirt and the shorts to Izzy and kissing her on the cheek.
"After us being attacked right outside my home I am not letting you go home…" she tried to protest but I put my hand up to stop her " even though I know you can handle yourself I would just feel better with you staying here." She nodded and proceeded to strip out of her outfit and into the clothes I gave her.
When we were both changed Izzy turned to me and dragged her eyes up and down my body that was just clad in the over sixed shirt and panties. "Is that all you wearing to sleep?" I laughed and nodded
"Alright no complaints here." We jumped into bed and slowly gravitated towards the center of the queen sized bed, and wrapped our arms around each other slowly drifting off to sleep as we looked into each others eyes.
