Used to be called Never Expected. It all began when she changed schools. If she'd just stayed at Springbrook with Simon none of this would have ever happened. But Clary would never trade what she'd gotten out of it all for the world, without the move of schools she'd never have gotten any of her new friends, she never would have gotten Jace. But what did she lose in return? Clace!
