Trying to keep up with Issabelle was hard. My legs were stubby in comparison with hers so I had to jog to keep up. I had a feeling that she was doing that on purpose.

"So, Junior right?" She asked with barely any interest laced into her tone.

"Yeah." I breathed out, I was already slightly out of breath.

"That`s good, I'm a Junior too." I couldn`t tell whether she was being sarcastic or not. So I replied with.

"yeah that's good." we stayed silent for a while.

"Let me see your timetable." She stopped abruptly, causing me to crash into her. Once again I sensed that she did that on purpose. She was smirking as she turned to me. Her hand was held out expectantly, I dug around in my coat searching for it, where was it? It was handed to me only 5 minutes ago.

"Here you go." I said triumphantly. she snatched it out of my hand, not bothering to look patient any more.

"I see you have homeroom, biology and P.E. with me today," she said scanning the sheet quickly, "But I don`t have Art with you, though I know someone who-" she cut off looking over my shoulder before muttering "Speak of the devil, MAGNUS!" She shouted, I turned around to see an eccentric looking man covered head to toe in glitter. He reminded me of one of those people who 'lived' for the creative arts. Everyone`s head turned slightly as he walked past them. I guessed they were used to his shiny fashion sense though, as they didn't give it a second glance.

"Hello to you to Issabelle. And who`s this strawberry shortcake?" He asked looking at me. Shortcake?

"Magnus, just the person I was looking for, Carrie here needs to get to art today and seeing as she`s new, she doesn`t know where it is, sooo I need you to take her there, comprende?"

"Got it." He replied.

"It`s Clary, Clary Fray." I said, reminding her of my name.

"Clary, where have I heard that name before?" He murmured to himself, his eyes widened before looking straight at me.

"Are you by any chance related to Jonathan Fray? " He asked

" Yeah, he's my brother." As soon as the words left my lips though, I soon regretted it. Issabelle's head snapped to my face, scanning to see if I was telling the truth, she was looking at me as if I was suddenly a human being and not just another burden to her.

"Clary, his sister was called Clary, how could I be so stupid." she muttered to herself.

"Then why didn`t you get a ride in his car today. Clary?" Magnus questioned me.

"He didn`t want to stop on the way, and we got into a fight about it until he finally told me that he didn't have enough space for me."

"Oh yeah, Jon usually let`s me and my brothers ride with him, I'm Issabelle, his girlfriend by the way, please call me Izzy though." She extended her hand, reintroducing herself. After shaking it, we stood in an awkward silence for the next few seconds. No one talked, until the school bell rang, signalling for us to get to class. Issabelle looked as if she just remembered where she was.

"Common Clary, we need to get to class quick or Mr Trueblood will get really annoyed. " She rushed grabbing my had and running down the hall. Even in her extremely high heels and tight skirt, she was fast. I on the other hand, was being dragged. My trainers offered no use in helping me be faster. I was dressed in dark grey jeans, and slightly baggy t-shirt. I wouldn`t stand out much if it wasn`t for my bright red hair, which was surprisingly natural. Still, I couldn`t hold a candle up against Issabelle, who looked like a model out of a runway magazine.

We got to class a few minutes later, Mr Trueblood, who was a middle aged, balding man, looked as if he was in a middle of a lecture. He glanced at us for a second before he started again. Izzy walked to the back and took the seat that was nearest to the window. I followed her, acting as invisible as possible. She smiled at me before digging out her phone and blocking out the normal world. I had to admit, it was kind of weird that both Jon's and mine previous ex-boyfriend and his current girlfriend both looked alike. Did we have the same taste in people? Gross.

Sorry there was no Clace in this chapter, I just want their first meeting to be more than in the hallway. There will be Clace next scene though. Thank you for all the reviews so far, honestly, I get so happy when you guys review.
