Disclaimer: I do not own any of these characters, Cassandra Clare does.

Hiii! I know I just updated yesterday but, I really am excited for this fanfic so I wanted to start as soon as possible! Okay, hope you like it!


Clary was already late for school. She had begun walking at around 7:40, not knowing that her new school was more than twenty minutes away. She began to walk faster thinking today couldn't get any worse-when ironically it began to rain! "I hate this!" Clary yelled out loud to no one in particular. Little did she know that someone was walking to the same school, at the same time, only a few feet away.

"Um, excuse me but, are you okay?" said a voice that didn't sound familiar to Clary. As she turned around, it's like everything played in slow motion; she turned around and saw a boy with long, blonde curls. He had such dark-golden eyes, Clary felt like she could be sucked into a black hole just by looking at them. There was something about this strange golden boy, that made Clary's heart beat so fast, she was sure he could hear it from the few feet that separated them. She knew she was staring but, she just couldn't help it; she wanted to find out what it was about this weird boy that drew her to him-physically.

Clary was so caught up in the moment, she didn't even realize the boy had his hand out-introducing himself to her. "Hi, I'm uh, Jace. Jace Wayland," the boy-Jace- said to her. Jace, she thought; it was a name that she had always admired. It was the kind of name that kept you up at night, just because of the beauty of the name.

"Oh! Hi, my name is Clary. Clary Fray," she said quite nervously, while shaking the Jace's hand. She hated this; when a boy made her go crazy just at the thought of him. Simon had that affect on me, she thought to herself, though she knew she could never compare any random, attractive boy to Simon. Clary couldn't stop thinking about this stupid boy, and she had only just met him! It was only fair for her heart to tell her that she had a tiny, little, compact, miniature crush. Though she knew that it probably would't stay like that forever.

As Jace walked alongside Clary, (he supposed they were heading to the same place) he couldn't help but smile at her super curly, orange-red hair. He honestly didn't know why this girl, named Clary, made him feel nice and tingly inside when her warm, pale arm brushed up against his. He was so focused on how close she was walking to him that he didn't even realize that she was actually talking to him.

"Do you wanna play twenty questions while we walk?" Clary asked him, looking at him from the short space that kept them apart. Oh God, he almost said out loud. He had only just met her a few moments before and she was already having this weird affect on him; he sorta liked it. Although he hoped she felt the same- she probably didn't but, a boy could only dream.

"Why?" he asked her not really understanding why someone as gorgeous as her would want to pay attention to him. Clary really was beautiful he thought, when he looked at her with those questioning, golden eyes of his.

"Just because we're walking to hell and, I would like to get to know if you're just a pretty boy or if you're actually an axe murderer and you're waiting for the right time to attack me." Clary spoke nervously and she didn't really know why. She had never actually been nervous around anyone before but, maybe it was just the affect the town had on her. Moving to a new neighborhood was nerve-wrecking and extremely stressing. She had always thought about the pressure of making new friends- and here she was, already talking to a random boy she met a few minutes ago.

"You're pretty and funny, just great. Another reason to act stupid. But anyway, sure. I'd like to play twenty questions with you." Jace said looking straight at Clary's big, bright green eyes. Weirdly, he got anxious for this stupid game. God, he thought; he hated when he got worked up over girls.

(I was honestly thinking of ending the chapter here lolz not that cruel hearted.)

"Okay I'll start off. How old are you?" Clary asked him, a bit curious about this, extremely tall and muscular boy's actual age. She had thought of him to be around 16 and 17 but, who knows, he could be a 23 year old going back to high school.

"I'm 16, oh and by the way, I absolutely love that band," Jace said pointing to her My Chemical Romance graphic tee. This was it, Jace had to marry this girl for the sake of his heart. First of all, she had these gorgeous orange curls that complimented her green eyes so perfectly, he could feel his own breath hitch in his throat. Second of all she liked My Chemical Romance, which in Jace's case happened to be one of his favorite bands of all fucking time; and third of all, Clary was totally hilarious and her humor was already winning him over.

"Oh my God, really?! I didn't think anyone in this town would know them!" Clary said and silently praised herself for going back into her house and changing into a graphic t-shirt because the fancy blouse she was was going to wear, wasn't really working for her.

"It's too bad they broke up, we would've gone to one of their concerts together!" Jace said to her and laughed because damn, was this girl special.

"Anyway it's my turn to ask you a question so uh, where do you live?" Jace said again and he actually didn't really mean for it sound so stalkerish but, he really couldn't help his curiosity.

"I live on Penhallow road, close to the memorial library," Clary asked trying to make it sound like she lived somewhere interesting because he looked like he actually cared about what she was talking about and, she wanted to make it worth his time.

"Oh, cool. I live around the town hall, which is just two blocks away from the memorial library." Jace said to her, which made Clary's eyes widen at the thought of Jace living in such a huge house. For his plain black t-shirt and black skinny jeans, he really didn't look like he came from such a rich family.

"Okay then, what's your favorite book?" Clary was just dying to ask this question from the moment she began talking to him. In her mind her favorite book had to be either one of the Harry Potter books or Looking For Alaska by John Green.

"I would never be able to chose between Hamlet and To Kill a Mocking Bird." Jace said liking where this stupid game was headed very much. He would not be able to stop himself from thinking about this strange and funny, red haired, band-loving nerd, all day long.

And guess what? That's exactly what he did.
