I enter the house with Iz, Jem, Will, and Tessa trailing behind me. I see the house is looking pretty clean; the boys really did it well.

"I'll show you guys to your room, and then you guys should eat. I bet you're all hungry." I suggest while Iz turns her heel to the kitchen. I walk upstairs and head to the guest room next to Jon's room. The walls are plain blue and the floors are white tiles. There are two blue twin beds, a table plus a chair, a TV and a small couch and a white drawer.

"This could be Jem's room or Will. You guys could pick, either this room or the next one." I say. Jem quickly calls dibs on this room and Will run off to the next room. I laugh at them for being childish.

"So Tess, do you want to have your own room or maybe you could sleep in my room?" I look at her and she's smiling at the sight of Will. She turns away and looks at me.

"With you of course! I've missed you." She hugs me tight. We pull away and I show her my room.

She unpacks her bag and change into a grey t-shirt with white shorts. She always wears her Clockwork Angel necklace, she never take it off. We go back to where Will and Jem are, and head downstairs together. Will and Tessa are walking hand in hand while me and Jem are trailing behind them, close to each other.

Jem and me are always the closest; we're like brother and sisters. Jem never thought of me more and me neither. He's the one who show me around Alicante High, who's always helping me with my homework and never upset me. He's like the best guy friend you could ask, well beside Simon.

"So have you moved on after Sebastian's passing?" He asks me carefully. I know he's asking me for my own good but it pains me inside remembering the tragedy. I stay quiet, not answering him.

"I take that as a no." He continues and sighs. He puts her arm around my shoulder and pulls me close to him. We walk like that to the kitchen.


Jace's POV

Alec, Jonathan and me prepare the house to be clean as possible. We don't want Clary to get mad at us. I mean, she's cute but not when she's furious, and I try to stay away from her when she gets mad. We wait for them to arrive and Jon asks Ann to cook us meals. After an hour, I hear the car pulls over. Not long after that Isabelle comes through the kitchen door.

"So, where are Clary and her friends?" Jon asks her.

"Upstairs, Clary is showing them their room, and they will be here in a few minutes."

"So what do you think of them?" I ask her, really curious.

"Well one of them looks like me and Alec and his name is William Herondale. He's tall, muscular, and handsome? Yeah you can say that. There's also his girlfriend, Theresa Gray. She has brown hair and gray eyes. Last one is James Carstairs. His hair is silver and he has silver eyes. He's cute, and I guess he's the calm one. Clary is really close with him." She explains perfectly.

A few seconds after that, Clary's friend, Theresa and William waltz in. William really looks like Alec and Isabelle. Especially Alec, but Alec's facial expression is much more softer instead William facial expression is tough. After them, Clary enters with Jem's hand around her shoulder. WHAT! They're not dating right? I hope not. Jonathan gives me a pity look and I just roll my eyes. She will be mine.


Clary's POV

The kitchen is really silence when Jem and me enter. Jace looks at Jem with anger or jealousy? It's hard to guess his emotion.

"So this is my friend, Will, Tessa, and Jem." Iz, Alec, Si, Jon and Jace nod in acknowledgement. So I continue, "And this is my brother Jonathan, his friend Jace, my best friends Alec, Isabelle, and Simon."

Jem, Will and Tessa smile to them, and I drag them to grab some Spaghetti that Ann just made. We all eat in the dining room, with Jon, Si, Alec, Iz, and Jace of course. I sit in between Jem and Isabelle. Across from me are Tessa and Will.

"Remember when Clary just moved to Alicante High?" ask Will to no one in particular.

"Yeah! I remember she got in trouble with Camille instantly! I remember Jem help her for that." Tessa replies him.

"What did she do?" asks Alec curiously. I glare at him. How dare he!

"Well, Clary sat at Camille's usual seat, and Clary didn't want to get up. Clary said that she sat there first and it's Camille own fault for getting there late. Camille started to scream at her and not wanting to hear her screams again, Clary stood up and punched her. Then Jem came to the rescue." Tessa replies Alec, ignoring my hard intense glare.

"Wow, I didn't know that Clary is such a troublemaker." Iz reply, with laughter

All of my friends are laughing right now, except Jem. He's giving me a light smile, which I reply by squeezing his hand under the table. After finishing our food, all of us head to the living room to have a small chat.

"So Clary, have a date yet for homecoming?" Jon asks me teasingly.

"Unlike you, I already have a date. Right Jem?" I retort back and grin at Jem.

Jem nods and put his arms around my shoulder again. Jon smile fade away and quickly look to Jace, which I follow. Jace looks emotionless. He sit there not moving and then he stomp out of the living room. What's going on? I mouthed to Isabelle and she just shrugs and scoot closer to Simon.

I shrug and invite Jem, Will, and Tessa to the music room while the others watch The Hunger Games together. I've watched that movies a thousand times already.


So, we usually have an annual music contest where I will team up with Jem and Will with Tessa. Each team will pick a song and sing it to the other team. The other team will give us some critics and comments, and we're going to do it now. Btw, Will can play drum and sing. Tessa can sing while Jem can play the Violin and sing.

Jem and me begin to discuss the song we're going to perform to the other team. We agree to the song and give each other parts. Jem will be playing the Violin and I'll sing. Will and Tessa will performs first and then Jem and me. We sit on the couch at the Music room to watch Will and Tessa performance. They're singing Just The Way You Are by Bruno Mars.

(Tessa Bold Will Italic Together Bold Italic)

Ohhhhh ohhhhhh ohhhhhh ohhhhhhh

(Will grabs Tessa hands and grab her close to him.)

Oh, her eyes, her eyes
Make the stars look like they're not shining'
Her hair, her hair
Falls perfectly without her trying
She's so beautiful
And I tell her everyday
Yeahh

I know, I know
When I compliment her she won't believe me
And it's so, it's so
Sad to think that she don't see what I see
But every time she asks me "Do I look okay? "
I say

(He swirls Tessa and then keeps holding her hand.)

When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
'Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for a while
'Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are
Yeah

(Tessa smiles at Will, Will try to dance but it's really horrible.)

Her lips, her lips
I could kiss them all day if she'd let me
Her laugh, her laugh
She hates but I think it's so sexy
She's so beautiful
And I tell her everyday

Oh you know, you know, you know
I'd never ask you to change
If perfect's what you're searching for
Then just stay the same
So don't even bother asking if you look okay
You know I'll say

(Tessa hold Will hands close to her, not letting go.)

When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
'Cause you're amazing (amazing)
Just the way you are
And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for a while
'Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are

The way you are
The way you are
Girl you're amazing
Just the way you are

When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing (amazing)
Just the way you are (are)
And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are


We stand up and applause for them, and sit back down to give them critics and comments. Tessa kiss Will in the cheek before focusing on Jem and me.

"It's really wonderful, I love the twirl you did there, Tessa. But Will, you look like a bear break dancing. I don't even know if a bear could break dance. Anyway back to the point, you're dance is terrible. That's all." I say to them. Will glare at me and playfully hit my arm.

"I always love your sound Tess, but seriously could Will dance any better? It's really embarrassing." Jem says jokingly. We start to laugh before Jem and me performs. We're going to perform Honeymoon Avenue by Ariana Grande. The song fits me perfectly.

Jem begins to play his violin for the intro, and then I sing.

I looked in my rear view mirror and
it seemed to make a lot more sense
than what I see ahead of us, ahead of us, yeah.
I'm ready to make that turn
Before we both crash and burn
Cause that could be the death of us, the death of us, baby

You know how to drive in rain
And you decided not to make a change
Stuck in the same old lane
Going the wrong way home

(I'm enjoying this song; I couldn't stop myself from dancing.)

I feel like my heart is stuck in bumper to bumper traffic,
I'm under pressure
Cause I can't have you the way that I want
Let's just go back to the way it was

When we were on Honeymoon Avenue
Honeymoon Avenue
Baby, coasting' like crazy
Can we get back to the way it was?

(I turn to face Will and Tessa and look straight at them.)

Hey, what happened to the butterflies?
Guess they encountered that stop sign
And my heart is at a yellow light, a yellow light
Hey, right when I think that we found it,
Well, that's when we start turning around
You're saying, "Baby, don't worry,"
But we're still going the wrong way, baby

You know how to drive in rain
And you decided not to make a change
Stuck in the same old lane
Going the wrong way home

(I dance with Jem, since he doesn't have to play the violin anymore until the end of the song.)

I feel like my heart is stuck in bumper to bumper traffic,
I'm under pressure
Cause I can't have you the way that I want
Let's just go back to the way it was

When we were on Honeymoon Avenue
Honeymoon Avenue
Baby, coasting' like crazy
Can we get back to the way it was?

They say only fools fall in love
Well, they must've been talking about us
and sometimes I feel like I've been here before
I could be wrong, but I know I'm right
We gon' be lost if we continue to fight
Honey I know, yeah,
We can find our way home

(I grab Jem's hand and intertwine it with mine.)

I feel like my heart is stuck in bumper to bumper traffic,
I'm under pressure
Cause I can't have you the way that I want
Let's just go back to the way it was

When we were on Honeymoon Avenue
Honeymoon Avenue
My baby, coasting' like crazy
Can we get back to the way it was?

(Jem grabs my waist and grab my hand while I put my other hand on his shoulder; we start dancing around the music room)

When we were on Honeymoon Avenue
Honeymoon Avenue
Baby, coasting' like crazy
can we get back to the way it was?

You know how to drive in rain
You decided not to make a change
Stuck in the same old lane
Going the wrong way home

I feel like my heart is stuck in... Traffic,
I'm under... pressure, pressure
Let's just go back to the way it was

when we were on...
(Honeymoon Avenue, Honeymoon Avenue, Honeymoon Avenue, Honeymoon Avenue)

Let's just go back, back, back.

Jem spins me around and I fall into his embrace. We pull away and stand in front of Tessa and Will to hear their comments and critics.

"Clareee! Your voice is much more beautiful than before. I love your performance. No critics." Tessa says excitedly.

"Hmm… What do I think?" Will says teasingly. I glare at him, and he laugh. "Just kidding! I love it, seriously. Especially the spin you guys did when the song ends. No critics this time." I grin to them and hug them tight.

"So what do you guys want to do next?" Jem asks from behind me.

"We could go back and watch The Hunger Games like the other." I suggest, they all agree and we head downstairs. I see that Jace is already back and he sit alone in one of the couch. Izzy is with Simon while Jonathan and Alec sit on the floor. I walk slowly to Jace and sit next to him, making him shock, but not for long.

"What are you doing here? Aren't you going to be with your friends?" He asks me, still not looking at me in the eye.

"Aren't you one of my friends?" I ask back.

He turns his head around to me this time, and look at me in the eye.

"It doesn't seem so, you didn't even remember us anymore. You left us, I get it you haven't seen them, but you don't need to forget us."

I stay quiet at his response. After a while I slowly mumble 'sorry' to him and he just nods. The movie finally ends and all of us head to our rooms.


Iz, Tessa and me will sleep in my room. Alec will be with Jonathan in his room. Simon won't sleepover because her parents are back and they miss him, so he went home. Will wants to be alone; he doesn't like to be disturbed when he sleeps. So, Jace will be with Jem…unfortunately. I hope Jace doesn't do stupid things to Jem. Jem is such a calm, nice, and friendly person. While Jace…well, you already know.

I enter my room with Tessa and Iz. Not long after I close the door, Isabelle starts to interrogate Tessa and me.

"So Tessa, how long have you and Will dated?" Iz asks to her.

"Um… a year or so. Why?" She asks back to Isabelle.

"No reason." Is her only reply. She turns her head to me "Clary, are Jem and you dating? Because it seems like you both are dating."

"NO! We're close friends, and only that. Jem doesn't have a feeling for me. Me neither." I reply quickly, not wanting her to think that Jem and me are dating. It's ridiculous.

She nods and she talks to Tessa about her clothes, her hair and everything for tomorrow. Tessa only nods and promise to Iz that Iz can give her a makeover tomorrow. I shook my head in disbelief. She doesn't know how Izzy will be when she makeovers someone. We finally went to sleep at 1 AM. We are so tired and we drifted to sleep easily.


Jace's POV

I didn't know what came into me. Seeing Clary with Jem makes me furious, and jealous maybe? But Jace Lightwood never gets jealous, especially because of a girl. But this girl is different, so much different from the others, and I will definitely get her.

Tonight I have to sleep in the same room with Jem. Maybe I can ask him about his relationship with Clary. I walk in the room confidently, and see that Jem just unpack her bags and he's sitting at the side of his bed.

"Hey dude." I greet him. He looks startle for a second before returning to his usual self.

"Why are you greeting me?" He asks curiously. He lifts his eyebrows and looks at me.

"I can't greet my friend's friend?"

"I didn't mean it like that, I mean just minutes ago you was glaring at me. If looks could kill, I would be dead an hour ago." He shifted at his sit uncomfortably.

I shrug "Maybe I need to adapt to the fact that you are dating my friend's sister."

"Why? Because you like her?" He starts to laugh. He immediately stops when he sees my expression. "You do like her!" he shouts.

"God, be quiet. Anyone could hear you." I glare at him. He haven't stop from his laughter.

"You think me and Clary are dating? That's so funny." He says in between laughter.

"Well it looks like that."

"Yeah but we're not dating. We're like brother and sister. That would be odd, wouldn't it? And Clary won't date anyone, especially after that accident." He mumbles that last part but I still could hear him.

"What accident?" I ask. Clary never tells about an accident. Why wouldn't she? Well except the fact that she thinks I'm a jerk, scumbag, and a bastard.

"She didn't tell you? I'm sorry I shouldn't have said that. Just forget it, and never ask or mention Clary about it. She'll get sad."

Then he sleeps at his bed and I jump to the other bed. Before I sleep, I keep on thinking about the accident. What happened? Why would Clary be so sad?


Sorry if the story confuse you. I have to write in Jace's POV too, so you guys know what Jace thinks. Like it? Hate it? REVIEW! Please tell me if I should continue this story or not. I hope you guys like it and please review for Jace's sake lol:D
