Family Secrets

by Roseygrrrl

Simon's cousins come and visit, what he doesn't know is that he's not the only one in his family that is part of the Shadow world or that keeps it a secret. This is my first fan fiction so please don't judge too harshly, however I would like some feed back or even constructive criticism. I will be adding in more characters later. T for language.

Chapter 2: Confrontation

Emily POV

When we got to Simon's house Selene and I went to our guest rooms and unpacked. I had two bags, but they were only half full so I could go shopping and be able to bring home anything I bought whom I am here in New York. When I finished unpacking I went to search for Simon. I've heard all the runors amongst all the downworlders about the daylighter and I wanted to see how many of them are true. When I found him he was in his room texting someone, possibly his rumored girlfriend Isabel Lightwood.

"Hey Si. Can I talk to you for a second?"

"About what?"

"Who are you texting?," I asked as I sat down on his bed next to him.

"Oh, just some friends."

"Suuuuure, whatever you say Si."

"I'm being serious Em, I'm just texting Clary," oh the rumors I've heard about that redhead I met the last time I was here.

"Alright chill. There's no need for you to get your fangs in a twist." I'm hoping that this will get him thinking.

"Wait, what did you just say?"

"I said there's no need to get your fangs in a twist my daylighter cousin."

"How did-what-who-how did you know?!" Oh dear, looks like his common sense is still a bit slow, I was hoping I wouldn't have to explain to him, or maybe I could just let him attempt to figure it out on his own...

Simon POV

I was in my room texting Clary about how things were going with the search for Sebastian, when Emily came in and asked if she could talk to me.

"About what," I replied hesitantly.

"Who are you texting?"

"Oh just some friends," I was hoping she wouldn't give me a sarcastic response.

"Suuuuure, whatever you say Si," and there's the sarcasm I knew she would reply with.

"I'm being serious Em, I'm just texting Clary,"I swear she sometimes does things like this just to irritate me, she knows how to get on everyone's nerves and seems to enjoy it too.

"Alright chill. There's no need to get your fangs in a twist," wait did she just say what I think she said?

"Wait, what did you just say?," I asked hoping I had heard wrong.

"I said there's no need for you to get your fangs in a twist my daylighter cousin," and now I'm freaking out how does she know, how did she find out and who told her. Apparently these questions were all trying to come out at once. Sounding like this:

"How did-what-who-how did you know?!"

She laughed in reply and simply stated "Your not the only one with a secret Simon."

The only thing I can think of is what is her secret and how did she find out mine? As I was thinking she got up and left my room leaving me to my thoughts. As she walked out the door she gave me a smirk and I thought that I had seen her eyes flash to those of a cat's, but that's impossible. The only person I know of with cat eyes is Magnus. It must have been my imagination. I quickly texted Clary about what just happened.

C: Are you sure she said that.

S: I'm positive that she said that I'm not the only one in the family with a secret.

C: Maybe Jace, Izzy, Alec, Magnus, and I should come over. You never know what she means by that.

S: She could have been messing with me, you know she likes to do that.

C: I don't think she's messing with you this time Si.

S: I'm going to try to see if I can figure it out on my own. I'll text you if something happens or if I find out what her secret is.

AN: I'm not sure if I portrayed Simon's character correctly. Please review to let me know what you think, however I will not sit here and beg for reviews. I know you guys will leave one if you want to. I did add some to this chapter, and I have an idea for the plot, I know some of you think that the story is going kind of fast, but there is going to be more to the story than just Emily revealing her secret to Simon. Sorry for not posting a new chapter, but I felt like the chapters were too short and left you guys not knowing much, so I updated them.
