Chapter 11: The Date

Clary POV:

We walked down the corridor to where we thought we had heard the loud crash. A window had been smashed severely. There was glass everywhere. "Clary, stand behind me." Jace shouted as a gush of wind blew through the now broken window. Just then a helicopter of some sorts flew up close to the window. The door slid open and a figure all dressed in black looked us in the eyes almost as if they where peering into our souls. We ducked as they went to throw something at us. Within seconds the hallway became quiet. Looking around I saw a large stone with paper wrapped around. I walked over to retrieve it.

"Miss me?

-A"

I stumbled backwards as I read the message. A flash of unpleasant memories filled my mind. This message could be for anyone. Not just me right? There where like more than 100 people living on this floor. But then, why would they choose the 9th floor? The floor I live on? Why would they choose the window closest to my room? Why did that figure stare at us before throwing the rock? Who was that figure? All these questions and no answers. I began to panic. Shaking. My breathing rate increasing. The black dots clouding my eye sight. I fell.

I awoke from the horrible memories yet again that night. Well morning. Okay evening. 5:30pm. How had I managed to sleep for that long? I heard someone coming up the stairs. "Oh, good Clary, you're up." Isabelle said. She wore a red dress that was tight and hugged her body nicely, black tights, and black 7 inch heels. Her hair was straight and flowed elegantly down her back. "Iz, why are you dressed like that?" "Is there something wrong with it?" She replied. "No… not at all… well... it's just that.. Don't you think it's a bit too much just to be walking around campus?" I asked. She laughed. "Clary, I'm going out." "Ohhh right that makes sense now. Where are you going? Especially on a Wednesday evening?" "I've got a date with Meliron. Now, will you be okay? Jace told me everything that happened." "Yeah, sure Iz." I lied. "Okay, Clary, well, if you need me, call and I will come straight home. Okay?" "I'm fine Iz, now go have fun." I said as I ushered her downstairs.

I walked back over to my bed. There was a note on my bed side table. Hmmm... I hadn't noticed that before. I picked it up and read it.

"Sleep well did we?

-A"

I began to tremble again. I looked around the room. No one could have possible put this here just recently. I was up here with Isabelle. How? Why? Who? I grabbed my phone as my heart rat began to accelerate. I couldn't call Iz, I mean she just left. There was only one person. I ran out the room and down the hall. Knocking on the door. There was silence. And then what seemed to be movement inside.

Jace POV:

There was a rapid knocking on my door. "Can't you leave it? I'm sure they will go away if we pretend they aren't there." Kealie said. I got up ignoring her. I answered the door and saw my favorite red head. Her green eyes staring at me. She looked scared and began to shake. I took her into my arms, wrapping my arms around her tiny waist. "Shush. Its okay I'm here. I've got you. Nothing is going to happen." I said, stroking her curly hair. I had read the note after she had passed out. I had meant to ask her what it was about but well… Kealie happened. "Jace, baby, who is it?" Clary looked up at me. Great. Clary backed away from me quickly, tears streaming down her face and then ran off. Shoot. I turned around to face Kealie. "Listen this isn't really the best time. Why don't you go find someone else to bugger. I'm not interested anymore." "Oh come on Jace? You know you want this." She said gesturing to her body and attempting to give puppy dog eyes. Yes I said attempting. And so far she was failing. "No I don't. Now get out." I spat. Gee she really wasn't getting the message. "FINE, but don't not for one minute think this is over." She said walking past me and pointing her red long nails. I grabbed a nearby t-shirt and sweatshirt and went to find Clary.
