Jace POV
Maryse Lightwood looked at Jace with an icy stare. Her blue crystal eyes made him want to cringe, but he would never let her see that.
"Is there a place you can stay?" Jace shrugged.
"I'm sure I'll find a place." He stood up from the chair and Maryse looked like she was going to say something but he left anyway. He bounded down the front steps leading into the Institute. He pulled the black hood over his blonde hair and started to stride down the sidewalk.
"How dare you say that my behavior is unacceptable
So condescending unnecessarily critical
I have the tendency of getting very physical
So watch your step 'cause if I do you'll need a miracle
You drain me dry and make me wonder why I'm even here
This Double Vision I was seeing is finally clear
You want to stay but you know very well I want you gone
Not fit to fuckin' tread the ground that I'm walking on
When it gets cold outside and you got nobody to love
You'll understand what I mean when I say
There's no way we're gonna give up
And like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in her dreams
Is there anyone out there 'cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe
Is there anyone out there 'cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe
What you are doing is screwing things up inside my head
You should know better you never listened to a word I said
Clutching your pillow and writhing in a naked sweat
Hoping somebody someday will do you like I did
When it gets cold outside and you got nobody to love
You'll understand what I mean when I say
There's no way we're gonna give up
And like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in her dreams
Is there anyone out there 'cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe
Is there anyone out there 'cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe
Does it kill
Does it burn
Is it painful to learn
That it's me that has all the control
Does it thrill
Does it sting
When you feel what I bring
And you wish that you had me to hold
When it gets cold outside and you got nobody to love
You'll understand what I mean when I say
There's no way we're gonna give up
And like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in her dreams
Is there anyone out there 'cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe
Is there anyone out there 'cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe
Is there anyone out there 'cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe."
Jace's face was tight in a grimace. He didn't care what people thought of him anymore. He'd come home to an angry Maryse. She'd treated him different for a while, but now she was treating him wrong. Since news had flown to Maryse that he was not Micheal Waylands son, she'd treated him like a disease rather than the boy she raised for seven years.
Anger flooded him. He hadn't done anything wrong. He could have gone with Valentine to Idris, where he so badly wanted to go, but he hadn't. He couldn't take full credit for the decision, it was Clary who made up his mind, but his heart had also screamed no.
Valentine hadn't been his father long enough to shape him, but some part of Jace would always wonder if maybe, he had.
He stopped suddenly at the sharp scent that flooded from a building on his right. The Hunters Moon. Jace smiled to himself and slipped inside. Alcohol therapy, just what he needed.
Clary POV
Clary sat on the steps to Simon's home. It would be dark soon and he would have to come out sometime. She wondered what he would say to her when hid did come out, or what she would say. "Get out bitch!" or in her case "I know what I did wrong. I'm sorry I treated you wrong, Simon."
She knew they were all possibilities. And she believed he had the right. She knew how he felt and yet she still cried to him when it was Jace who hurt her. What kind of person was she.
A sound behind made her stand up quickly and look the door.
"Clary, what are you doing here? Is everything alright?" It was Simon's mother.
"Yes Ms. Lewis, everything's fine. Is Simon home." She looked behind her and Clary could hear the faint sound of Simon's music coming down the hall. Ms. Lewis was always yelling at him to turn it down.
"No." She said hastily and looked down. Clary nodded and made her way down the steps as she shut the door. Shot down by her best friends mother. Great.
"Bang bang you shot me down
Bang bang I hit the ground
Bang bang that awful sound
Bang bang my baby shot me down
I was five and you were six
We rode on horses made of sticks I wore black you wore white
You would always win the fight
Bang bang you shot me down
Bang bang I hit the ground
Bang bang that awful sound
Bang bang my baby shot me down
Seasons came and changed the time
I grew up I called you mine
You would always laugh and say
Remember when we used to play
Bang bang you shot me down
Bang bang I hit the ground
Bang bang that awful sound
Bang bang my baby shot me down
Music played and people sang
Just for me the church bells rang
After echoes from a gun
We both vowed that we'd be one
Now you're gone I don't know why
Sometimes I cry
You didn't say goodbye
You didn't take the time to lie
Bang bang you shot me down
Bang bang I hit the ground
Bang bang that awful sound
Bang bang my baby shot me down."
