What does Maryse want to talk to me in private about? I have aII different thoughts. But it has to be about either my father or brother. Or what happened between Lydia and me. But I am going to talk about heading back to school. I think it is time.
"I guess I should have seen this coming. You wanted to talk Maryse?" I asked as I entered the office.
"Yes Clary. Do not worry you are not in trouble. What you said to Lydia was all true and I stand behind hundred percent." She told me.
I was defiantly caught off guard with that. I really thought she was going to yell at me or something. But looks lie I am wrong. I shut the door and went to sit down. I then asked,
"What is it that you needed to talk to me about?"
"I wanted to first see how you are. I know is not easy for you. Mostly, with your brother and father being near. But I want you to know that you are not alone. Everyone here is behind you. Know it was not ever easy in the past. But here no one will look at you different. You are one of us." She told me.
She does not know how much that means to me. For as long as I know about everything everyone in the Shadowhunter world everyone judged me for who my father is. But now knowing I do not have to be alone and in this alone really makes me feel amazing.
"Truthfully, Maryse, you don't know how much that means to me. I felt like I have been so alone for so long until now. Jace, Izzy, and Alec made it clear I am not. Now knowing you have my back means a lot." I told her.
"You don't have to be alone anymore. So, how is everything going with them coming after you?" She asked me.
"Well, not good at all. I do not know if anyone told you, but Izzy's and mine room was broken into and destroyed like they were looking for something. We still do not know who it was. But I have a feeling that it was someone that is helping my father or brother. Because I know what they were looking for." I told her.
"Yes. I was told by Alec. He did tell me that you figured what they were looking for. But he could not tell me because he couldn't lose your trust. So, I was wondering if you could trust me with that?" She asked.
"I'm sorry Maryse. But the less people that know what I have the better. It's nothing against you. But I rather keep this right now between only Simon, Jace, Izzy, Alec, my mother, and I. But it is safe and everything." I told her.
"I can understand. If I can put it together, I can understand why. So, don't worry. But if you think someone is helping them from the school. Do you think they have insiders?" She said.
"Yes. Or my brother changed his looks and is there. It is what I'm fearing." I told her truthfully.
"You don't have to fear anymore. We won't let anything happen to you. Even if he is there or someone is helping them." She told me.
"Thanks, Maryse. I really needed to hear most of this. Is there anything else want to know?" I asked.
"No. But my door is always open for you no matter where you are." She told me.
"I will. I promise. Thank you." I said.
I then headed out. I think I really needed this moment with her. I now know I wasn't ever alone. But now I don't feel like am anymore.
