Jace walked down the hallway past Alec and a girl with red straight hair. She looked familiar. Probably another of Simons's friends. He stood in the elevator and Izzy walked in from the next floor. "Jace, Have you seen her yet?" She was bouncing on her heels. "No. She should be here any minute though. According to Simon." The door dinged. "Hey, Simon. have you seen Clary. Yet?" Isabelle asked Simon looked nervous.
"About that..." they looked at him, "What?" Jace asked. "Um... Well... You See... Clary Morganstein isn't coming?" "What?!" Jace yelled. "But... I may or may not have just let in a Clarissa Graymark." He whispered. "What did she look like?" "Short, long straight red hair that looked like it was still curly so maybe she tried to straighten it and it won't work... and-" Jace took off towards the stairs. "I'm not running in heels JACE!" Isabelle Hollard. "Mom's office" I yelled back. She headed for the elevator "See ya tonight Simon." Jace heard before the door to the emergency stairs shut. He dashed up the stairs passing the first few levels before heading in the direction of the office he flung the door open to find- his parents. Robert and Maryse locked in a kiss." "Oops." he shut the door as they started scolding him. "You're good, Jace." "Where?" he asked. "With Alec but by your rooms. she's looking for you. Oh.. and take the elevator." He nodded. "Thank you." He hit the up arrow. It was taking too long. Isabelle was in there waiting. "What." He hit the button to the floor with their rooms on it. There were two empty bedrooms, One for Clary and the other for Magnus. Magnus Bane would be here soon.
Izzy hit the emergency stop button. "What are you doing?" He growled. "You know this is why we had to leave. "Why?" "Your so possessive over her." "No, we had to leave to keep her safe." "Do you think she'll understand?" "I-I- I don't- I don't care about that right now. I haven't seen her in how long? please! Imagine if you had to go without seeing Simon!" She turned pink. "Ho-How'd you" "I am more observant than you think." She nodded her head."Just like I know you know Alecs Gay." "Don't tell Mom and Dad!" She looked scared. "I won't don't worry. Now can we go now! Clary's literally on the next floor!"
She laughed and turned to the phone that she'd been holding. "Yes." I hit the start button and it dinged... I took a deep breath. And there she was staring at me. Alec is next to her. "Hey Jace," she said. "Hey, Clary." "So... are you gonna get out of the elevator?" "Oh... Yeah." She laughed. I stood there. Staring. taking her in. Her hair was long straightened. Her eyes were bright but closed off. The elevator dinged someone was on the floor. "There's My Girlfriend!" An unfamiliar voice said. Jace whipped around. "who?" "Magnus! you made it!" Jace heard Clary and he froze. He turned as Magnus picked her up into a hug. "And who is this handsome guy." "I'm Jace." Magnus glanced at him, "Not you, I was talking about blue eyes." He pointed at Alec who blushed. "A-Alec Lightwood." "Alec...hmm... Short for something, let me guess, Alaric? Alejandro?" "No." "hmm.. I've heard of two lightwoods before. Ah... You must be Clary's best friend then, Alexander." "Y-Yes." Alex visibly shivered at the sound of his name. Jace shook his head and focused on the arms wrapped around Clary. He was pissed. "And You are?" He growled. They all looked at him. "Magnus." "Why are you flirting with my brother if your Clary's... boyfriend." Clary flushed. "Wait- Don't jump to conclusions, "Alec, Izzy... Jace... Meet Magnus Bane. Don't worry, It's just a cover, Mr. Bane here is all curve and no straight." "What?" Alec asked. She laughed, "Don't worry...He's gay." "And so-" "Clary! Welcome back." Isabelle squealed. "Thank you. Isabelle" Jace noticed Clary and Isabelle stood away from each other. Jace was tired of waiting. He shoved her out of the way pulled Clary from Magnus and enveloped her into a hug. Her arms wrapped around him so fast it nearly shocked him.
"Jace." She whispered in his ear. "Clary." He said and pulled back. tears were falling on her face. "Come." He said. and pulled her down the hall towards the last door. His room. She smiled at him. "bye guys! Alec, please show Magnus to his room! I'll see Max later!" She yelled just before the door shut. Jace didn't give her a moment to look around he pounced and pulled her into a kiss silencing her before she could speak.
