She walked in and sat down on a seat inside the mainly empty carriage. She swung her handbag onto her lap and got out her iPod and begun to play Radioactive by Imagine Dragons. Just as the chorus began, she felt her phone vibrate in her bag.

She took it out and looked at the screen to see she had a new text from Izzy. Hey hun, where are u? meet outside Hollister xox. She began to type her reply. Nearly there, on the subway. kk will do.

She put her phone away and looked up to see the next stop she was getting off. She stood up, giving up her seat to an old man who had just got on. When the doors opened, she stepped out and headed to the exit.

When she arrived at Hollister, Clary looked around, searching for the tall girl with raven hair. She soon spotted her, towering over everyone else in her stilettos. She speeded over and was lifted up in a hug with a laugh from her best friend.

When she was put down she laughed saying, 'Wow Izzy, if you'd hugged me any longer I would have suffocated!'

'But I haven't seen you in aaagggesss,' she whined.

'Izzy. Its been three days.' Clary replied, rolling her eyes.

'Well…yeah I guess. But come on, we're going shopping!' gabbing the redheaded girls hand and dragging her towards the shops.

Three million shops later, or so Clary thought. They were leaving the mall. Clary had bought presents for Simon, Alec, Magnus, Jocelyn and Luke. After spending ages wondering what to buy Jace, she finally decided on buying him a nice grey woolly jumper for the rest of the winter months.

Clary sat tapping her feet as they sat on seats on the way back to the Institute. She was excited to set up the decorations and mostly excited about seeing Jace. She hadn't seen him for a few days as he'd been away killing demons in San Francisco.

'Will you quit that out!' snapped Izzy at Clary and her bouncing knees.

'Sorry'

She heard a buzz in her pocket and took out her phone to see a text from Jace. When are you back? Missing you, cant wait to see you xx. She smiled, pleased to know that Jace was missing her too. She texted back saying On the way now, missed u too, see u outside the institute in a min.

As the text sent she felt a tap on her shoulder as Izzy announced that this was their stop. They stepped out and headed out of the subway.

They walked towards the Institute's street and Clary began to really feel excited. They stepped along the sidewalk, walking along to the Institute's grand building.

She saw a flash of gold as she noticed Jace stood outside the

Institute's doors on the other side of the street.

'Jace!' I shouted as he lifted his head and smiled as he stepped towards the edge of the sidewalk.

I smiled and ran forward without thinking into the middle of the busy road. His eyes widened in shock as her shouted 'Clary!', then she turned to see a yellow cab speeding towards her as everything went black.
