Thank you so much for helping me out! It looks like most of you said that I should skip around a bit and fit in all 3 movies. I think I'll do that. You all deserve muffins. *offers pretend muffins*

This chapter is basically the finishing of the first movie. The scene below was one of my favorite parts, next to Clary and Jace's first kiss, and the part at the beginning of the book where Simon makes a joke about his resemblance to Jesus. That had me laughing so hard.

Enjoy!



6 months later….

This was the last scene of the first movie. Clary wanted to jump and shout in happiness. It was finally over.

Her heart sank when she remembered that there were still 2 more movies.

For some reason, Delilah had chosen the scene right after the one in the greenhouse last. The one where Simon finds Clary and Jace outside her door, kissing. Luckily for him, Delilah had finally gotten her facts correct, and Simon is now straight. No tight pants and glitter for him. She remembered the defeated look on Magnus' face when he'd found out that he was no longer in charge of Simon's attire.

"Okay, this is the last scene. We've got an hour left, I want you to perform it your best. Action."

Jace and Clary started out hand in hand down a dark hallway that was supposed to resemble the one outside her room in the Institute. They stopped; Jace bade her goodnight, and bent to kiss her mouth, tenderly, and hesitantly. Just like he had before. They both had to try very hard not to get carried away.

On cue, Simon opened the door, and plastered a look of shock on his face. He wore his old glasses and a bed head hairdo.

"What the hell?" He recited, through gritted teeth.

"Simon! What are you- I mean- I thought you were-"

"Asleep? I was. Then I woke up and you weren't there so I thought…."

"I'm sorry," she whispered, trying to sound upset. She wondered how Simon was feeling at this moment. He had Isabelle now…Surely there wasn't a chance that he still..? No. That was silly.

"In the future Clarissa, it might be wise to mention you already have a man in your bed, to avoid such tedious situations." Said Jace, a flicker of amusement in his voice.

"You invited him to bed?"

"Ridiculous isn't it? We would have never all fit."

"I didn't invite him to bed, we were just kissing," Clary said coolly. The blood actually rushed to her cheeks.

"Just kissing? How swiftly you dismiss our love," Jace said, making Clary want to giggle. He said it exactly the same.

They recited the rest of their lines, a little overly serious and soap operaish. Which is probably exactly what they looked like when this actually happened. Simon had already stormed back into Clary's room, and Jace had already marched down the hallway after telling her how unmemorable the kiss was. She didn't believe him that time, either. Now she was bickering with Simon.

Surprisingly, Delilah hadn't stopped the filming yet. She was perched on her chair, an expression of interest on her face. Clary didn't realize how much she dreaded this part of the scene.

"Because, I've been in love with you for ten years, so I thought it seemed like time to see if you felt the same about me. Which, I guess, you don't," he spat, looking totally and completely truthful. A pang of hurt swam in his eyes, real hurt. But then it was gone.

Clary immediately felt guilty. Simon said something else that she honestly didn't hear, and he was standing at the door, staring at her sadly.

"You really want to know what else it was my mom said about you?" He asked, his face a reflection of what it had looked like more than a year ago.

She shook her head.

"She said you'd break my heart." And then he closed the door.

The lights turned on, and Delilah was clapping.

"That was probably the best acting I've seen in a long time. Wow," she stuttered, shaking her head. Was she actually being nice? "That's a rap. Go home guys."

Simon and Jace came in the room, and they both tackled Clary in a hug, leaving her breathless. Simon claimed her, twirling her in a circle. He crushed her to his chest.

"You were awesome," he whispered, smiling.

"So were you! I really thought it was real," she replied, a hint of sadness in her voice.

Jace cleared his throat, and Simon reflexively released her.

"It's not exactly something I like to dwell on, but I've got someone else now," Simon told her, glancing over at Isabelle, who had come to watch the last scene. She grinned at him, beckoning with her hand.

Clary turned as Simon went to her, and ran into Jace's arms.

"I love you," she mumbled, and he tightened his arms around her.

"Not as much as I-" he began, but Clary had pushed the words back in his mouth, very eagerly.

"Love you," he finished when they parted, kissing her again.

"This is so exciting!" Isabelle squealed, sitting down beside Clary, her hand closed in Simon's.

Clary smiled happily, and was surprised at the flutter in her stomach. She was a movie star! With the amazingly hot celebrity boyfriend. Every girl's dream life.

Alec and Magnus sat on the other side of Clary and Jace, fingers entwined. Alec whispered something to Jace, who was practically bouncing out of his seat with impatience.

"Geez Jace, chill out," Clary chuckled, running her hand through his hair.

"Well, I sort of ate all my candy already, and I really hate the previews, and there are a lot of people looking at me, which I don't mind, but there are even more people looking at you, which I do mind. I wish they would just turn off the lights already and start the stupid movie," he grumbled, blowing lock of hair from his eyes.

"You just want to see yourself on tv," she teased, lacing her fingers through his.

"Who wouldn't want to see me on tv?"

Clary sighed and kissed his cheek. She wouldn't normally do that, but smirked when a few disappointed groans echoed from the audience.

"Hey baby," Jocelyn said from the seat in front of her.

"Hey mom, how's the baby?" Clary replied, eyeing the round lump under her shirt. The baby was due in 2 months.

"Great. In fact, more than great. We stopped by the doctor before coming here, to see what sex it is. You're going to have a little brother," she said excitedly.

"Oh wow…Really? That's awesome!"

"What are you gonna name him?" Jace questioned, glancing at Luke, who had just took his place beside Jocelyn.

"Not sure yet. We were thinking…Well, Max," Luke told them, a little mournfully.

Jace nodded. "That's a great name. Max was the best brother anyone could ask for," he said, a hint of regret in his voice.

The lights dimmed, and then the movie started.

Jace had to admit, it was weird watching himself on the big screen. But he really wasn't looking at himself, he was looking at Clary. She was so…Great. Amazing. Beautiful. Talented. Everything. Even though she wasn't the best actress in the world, she still passed with flying colors.

The whole movie brought back countless memories, even though they'd cut out some things. As much as Jace hated to admit it, Delilah had done a great job. He glanced to where she was sitting beside her husband. Poor guy, Jace thought.

Jace shifted uncomfortably when Alec and Magnus began to make out again. Simon and Isabelle were too, which had Clary fidgeting in her seat. They were surrounded by constant PDA. Did no one care that everyone else was trying to watch the movie? He was thankful they were sitting in the back.

Jace and Clary had resolved to actually pay attention. Had the main characters had been anyone but himself and Clary; Jace would have not been able to resist the urge to break that resolve.

"So the more manly you are, the less you say?"

"Right. That's why when major badasses greet each other in movies, they don't say anything, they just nod. The nod means, 'I am a badass, and I recognize that you, too, are a badass,' but they don't say anything because they're Wolverine and Magneto and it would mess up their vibe to explain." said Simon, on the movie.

Laughter erupted from the audience, as it had many times. So far, Simon had gotten the most laughs and Jace the most dreamy sighs.

"I have no idea what you're talking about," Jace said on the screen, which caused even more laughter. He still had no idea who the hell Wolverine and Magneto were.

***

Alec was completely removed from this world. He was in his own world, taking in the smell, the taste, the feel…Of Magnus. They both had gotten honestly bored of the movie, and since it had already gotten past the part where Alec's sexuality had been revealed, they decided to just go for it, ignoring the disgusted remarks from people below. Why were they looking anyway?

***

Simon really did want to watch. But how could he possibly resist her? She was an absolutely fantastic kisser. Her lips kept moving around his neck, and he eventually just gave in. They could always buy it on DVD.

***

Delilah watched with a mixture of pride and stress. She was so hoping that people would love the movie, so they could make another one. There was almost no doubt about it: there would be a sequel. Luckily, her husband had come back from his very long business trip (he's also a film director), so she didn't have to stay in the Institute anymore.

The fun had only just begun.


The last little bits including Simon and Alec were just for fun really.

I think the next chapter might start out with Jocelyn having her baby. Sound good?
