CHAPTER 9

Izzy's P.O.V

When I first stumbled onto Tumblr I honestly thought it was some sort of demon dimension. It sort of is, isn't it?

I was quickly absorbed into a deep dark pit of nerdy-ness and there was no turning back. The video games are bad enough but my new obsession is getting out of hand. My new obsession…Star Wars.

I am a die-hard Star Wars fan and my pajamas and various posters reflect that perfectly. If anyone saw this they would think I was crazy.

One day while searching through posts I found one that made me laugh so hard I fell off of my chair and laughed for a solid five minutes.

Of course after calming down I stalked 'xXTheCakeIsALieXx' and finally built up the nerve to talk to him…purely online of course.

We talked a little bit here and there, then here and there became everyday. We really got to know each other and we became…friends. Of course this was after convincing him that 'TalkToTheWhip' was not code for some sexual fetish.

The first time we Skyped was pretty funny looking back on it…Simon -this is what he told me his name was- is this brown haired, brown eyed, Nerd-hot in the best way, hilarious guy. I think from that word vomit you can surmise I liked what I saw.

He did too.

He floundered for a solid two minutes.

"Hi I'm Izzy." I said.

"S-Simon." He stuttered out.

Our conversation was a bit more awkward than usual but he was still his funny self. We skyped frequently after that and I would often help him with his homework because according to him I made it 'fun'. We would just talk other times about 'nerd stuff' or rant to each other when we were angry.

I learned a lot about him over the month that we talked. I noticed the way his eyes lit up when he talked about his mother and sister. How he got this glazed over look in his eyes when he was nostalgic. How he would become so animated when he talked about his friends.

Yesterday I found Alec storming down the hallway and Jace with a girl in his room. What a great start to the day. After Alec locked himself in his room and Jace and the redhead left I went to my own room in hopes of talking to Simon. Lying on my stomach on my red comforter I opened my laptop.

When his face popped up on my screen I felt my smile grow across my face.

"To what do I owe the pleasure?" He said jokingly

"I had nothing better to do." I replied.

"I am hurt!" He said in mock offence.

"You'll live." I said. "I really needed someone to talk to. My brother, Alec, is being all moody because he found Jace with a girl in his room…Alec, of course, still will not admit why exactly he's jealous, even though it's blatantly obvious…" I sighed. "He's just such an idiot sometimes."

"Some guys, not me of course, are idiots." He said matter-of-factly. I laugh softly at this.

I notice his eyes darting to his phone in the corner of the screen.

"Expecting a call?"

"My friend. She just sort of disappeared. I've been texting her but she's not responding." She. He runs a hand through his hair.

"Do you have any idea where she might have gone?"

"I took her out for her birthday…I have my suspicions she…did…with…" He gets flustered. He seemed hurt and I felt a pang of jealousy deep within my chest. This girl…he must think of her as more than a friend.

He looked up at me with his warm brown eyes and I just about lost it.

"I'm sure she's fine." I said after swallowing heavily.

"Yeah." His eyes were sad. His phone went off and he relaxed slightly. "That was her."

"Told you she'd be fine." I smile.

"Yeah." He smiled a bit too.

We stared at each other for a few seconds too long before he abruptly said.

"Wow, I am exhausted. I'm gonna go. I'm gonna get some coffee…"

He closed his laptop.

I heard the door to the institute open and slam shut about an hour later.

"Alec!"

Shit's about to go down…By the Angel, Simon! You've rubbed off on me.

I walked carefully downstairs. I had been thinking about Alec and Jace and the redhead that he brought home. He wouldn't do that without a good reason…and his reaction…He really only gets this frustrated and angry when something is important to him.

"He must really care about you…" I started. She looked at me slightly confused, like she understood but didn't know how to respond to my statement.

I took her into the kitchen and gave her ice cream. She shared a bit of her feelings and how they met…she's a sweet girl and I pointed out that she balanced Jace out. The way they looked at each other after he came in…I want that. I want it so bad.


AN/Thanks for reading this chapter. It will most likely be back in Clary's perspective next chapter unless you like Izzy's perspective. Please review, favorite, and follow, I love hearing what you think!
