Hey!

I want to thank all of you that followed, favorite and reviewed this story. It means a lot. So I wrote this chapter earlier than I intended to.

There will be some bromance in this chapter between Clary and Alec.

And again if there is something wrong with my grammar or spelling please tell me.

So on with the 2nd chapter.

Disclaimer: I don't own anything except the plot.

Chapter 2: Broken Hearts

As soon as I entered my class I didn't have time to react when was dragged by Izzy to the seat next to hers. William sat behind me with Alec and Simon in front of us.

Other students filled the room and we all started talking until the teacher came in. "Buenos Dias, estudiantes." She presented herself as being Mrs. Montemaire. She must be a new teacher I haven't seen her here last year. "Bien, hoy vamos a hacer una prueba para ver su nivel al idioma pero primero me gustaría que se presenten." She started calling the students and when it was my turn I told her my name, my age, that I was here in an art course and that I have been studying languages since I was little.

After our presentations we started doing the test. Some minutes after someone knocked on the door, I didn't bother to look up, he apologized and I suppose that he took the test and sat in one of the back seats because when I got out I didn't see him in the ones in the front.

My next class was Maths that I only had with Alec. Simon has it too but not at the same time as us… We went to our lockers to take the books and made our way to class.

I didn't know this teacher either but I could see by her posture and way of speaking that she was rigorous. We presented ourselves and then she started talking about the Pythagoras theorem and trigonometry but I zoned out at her second word. Like I didn't know all that shit...

"And then we have the tangent that is… Miss Fray could you give me the pleasure of telling me what is the tangent?" She asked. Her voice dripping sarcasm.

Oh, she thought that if I wasn't paying attention I didn't know the answer? Ha! She could take her pride and stick it up her ass and then down her throat.

"Of course I could tell you and the pleasure will be all mine." I answered her in a matching tone. "The tangent of an angle is the ratio of the length of the opposite side to the adjacent side. In other words is the sine divided by the cosine." I finished my sentence with a smirk and the teacher looking at me with wide eyes.

Oh. My. God. Her face was priceless. Shouldn't I be taking a photo? Maybe I could ask her to take a selfie with me.

I wanted to laugh so heard but I kept myself calm. Sure thing that when I'll put a single foot out of this room I'll burst out.

Alec was looking at me with amusement clearly written all over his face. I stick my tongue out to him and he snickered but quickly covered it with a fake choke. Whit that I almost loose it.

We spent the rest of the class sending silent messages glancing at each other and teasing ourselves. Soon enough the bell rang and we both got out from there the faster we could.

As soon as I stepped a foot in the corridor I let it all get out. Alec joined me after sending me a "Okayy..." glance. I'm pretty sure that the people passing next to us thought we were some creeps or something like that by the glances they were giving us. That made us laugh even harder.

About two minutes after we managed to calm down and head off to our next class. We were having P.E. with Jordan and Maia, Emma and Jules, William, Isabelle, Simon. Well, basically with all the members of our team. And if I didn't search wrong, we were going to have self defense classes this year.

Always a good way to quick some asses and show people not to mess with us.

Oh. I almost forgot to ask Alec who was texting furiously to someone about the new guy. "Hey Al did you guys met the new one? I didn't have time to pass trough The Institute the other day."

"No, we didn't. I think he had a small problem. But he's coming today." He mumbled not looking away from the phone.

As we arrived we went to our separate ways. He to the males changing room and I to the female. I put all my things in a locker after I wore my black sports shorts and a sports bra with a dark green cropped T-shirt. Then I made my way to the gym.

When I entering the room I hit someone's chest very hard, enough to make me loose my balance. He grabbed my waist and steadied me. A took a step back and I was about to thank him when my eyes landed on a golden guy. Seriously he was literally golden. Golden hair, freaking gold tanned skin and golden eyes? Who in the freaking hell had golden eyes? Who in the freaking hell looked like that?

Wait- I've seen those eyes somewhere... And that hair... Oh my God! It can't be... How can that be? No. It can't be. I'm sure it must be a mistake. Yeah, that's it.

But I must say he looks hot and sexy in that white tight V-neck shirt that shows his six pack and for sure that he has m-

"I know that I'm awesome but it's not pretty to be staring at someone like that, you know? Not that I care... " He was smirking at me.

-and it's an arrogant and an asshat. I finished my previous thinking.

I narrowed my eyes at him and was about to reply when the teacher called us. I Iave him one more glance and made my way next to the other students. I stopped dead on my feet when I saw who was there. Luke?

I almost said that but he prevented me from doing it by shaking his head slowly. That really caught me by surprise. What was he doing here?

Luke was my parents best friend. They had met in a mission when they were about my age and since then they've become inseparable. Well until my mother's death. After that they started growing apart. But I didn't.

Luke was like a second father to me and he helped me when I most needed. He was always there when I didn't have someone to keep my life steady, when I didn't have someone to be my grounded rock. I knew I could always count on him for everything. Even for things I wasn't supposed to do... He even knew about my plan and me being The Shadowhunters' directress which Valentine and Jon didn't. Not that I didn't trust them... I just knew how they'd react and it wouldn't have been pleasant.

He presented himself as being Logan Bloodrose. He said he would be our teacher for this year and that that we'd be having self defense classes. Then he said that he wanted to see our level of fighting and asked if someone knew how to fight.

Me and the guys put our hands up with some more students including the arrogant jerk that I had met earlier.

"Now I want you to present yourselves, choose your partner and show me what you have." He said. As no one took the first step I asked Alec to come with me to the ring. He hesitated but still agreed.

"Hello. My name is Rissa and this is my friend Archer." We positioned ourselves and I was waiting for him to take the first step. "Oh come one Arch. I'll take it easy on you." I teased with a smirk and with that he attacked me.

He used our confusion tactic. He made me believe that he was going to trow the first attack at me by the left but he did it by the right.

The thing is that I know all their movements, one by one and I knew he'd do that. So I threw myself over landing right beside him and as I knew he was expecting that I took a step to the right and elbowed him in the ribs. He then threw me to the floor and tried to punch me but I was quick enough to dodge it and I lift myself from the floor. I kicked his feet from under him and he fell backwards but he had grabbed my hand and we both fell together. He managed to flick us in the air so he landed above me arresting my feet under his. He threw a punch but I caught it and I pushed him away from me standing up. Now was my turn to attack so I punched him I the jaw and then I brought my knee to his stomach and finally I threw a last punch before he fall on the ground unconscious.

I kneeled next to him and shook him. I didn't knocked him out that bad so a slap would definitely solve the problem. And that was what I did. I slapped him hard and he opened his eyes wide looking at me with confusion. I rolled my eyes and pulled him up stadying him.

"You're OK?" I asked him and he nodded.

I knew he wasn't because he never fights like that. We always spend about half an hour to one fighting without even stopping one second. He had been distracted all the time.

I took him to a bench and sat there with him. "Alec you know that you can't lie to me. What happened? What happened after that little chat you had on your phone. Who was it?" He looked at me and then down. "No one." He said but he was lying trough all his teeth.

"Alec. You know you can tell me everything, right? I'm not being your boss right now, I'm being your friend. And you also know that I can check your phone calls..." The last sentence was to just light up the mood. I would never do that without people permission unless it was really needed. He gave me a ghost of a smile and then sighed. "Clary I never told this to anyone, including Isabelle. I- I'm gay, Clary." Oh. He was still in the closet fase. "Al... There is nothing wrong with being gay. Why are you so sad about it? It won't change the person you are and definitely not our friendship." I asked him. It couldn't be just that. There must be something else.

It was as he had read my thoughts. "Magnus... He is- was my boyfriend. He- he cheated on me. He was telling me that when we were walking trough the corridor." My mouth shaped a perfect 'o'.

God he must be so broken... I know what was the pain of loosing someone you care about but I never went trough the pain of a broken heart. So I just gave him the only thing I could- my love. Not that kind of love. Alec was like a brother to me.

I gave him a hug and said "You can cry you know... We are not made of stone. And I'm here with you. Don't save it all for yourself." With that he hugged me back tight and I felt hot drops on my shoulder.

Boy, he must love him a lot...

So this was chapter 2. I hoped you liked it.

I know that there hasn't been much action but I promise you that that won't last long.
