Dear Loves.
I am so sorry I did not post sooner. I got to carried away with school again. Forgive my tardiness, and also forgive me for this horrible chapter that was extremely rushed. I will post soon, probably this weekend so – look forward to it.
Please Follow for motivation!
Con Amor

(Johnathan Morgenstern POV)
Its been a month since the three new students arrived at City of Angels High School, and to say that the entire atmosphere has changed is putting things mildly – or even worse – a lie. Everything is different, even the school janitor, Mr. Wilford has changed. He used to always be stoic, not a single 'hello' or even a nod to the students. Now he smiles, whistles and hums to jazz music. Don't ask me how he started doing that, or why I know, I just know. (Author Note : I mean he is Johnathan Morgenstern... how could he not know? Sorry I am just obsessed with Johnathan. LOL)
But that is not even the big change take Jace, Alec, Jordan, and Isabelle for an example. Isabelle still talks to me, but not how she used to. You see, Isabelle has a crush on me. But being Isabelle ' The Badass ' Lightwood and a beauty Queen, she could not possibly tell me. She just flirts her ass off. It's not that I don't like her – I do – just not the same way she does. I like her as a friend. That is why I am so glad she has set her eyes on that geek, Simon.
Now Jordan is a special case. You see, Jordan has always been a calm person. Always the one with control, but for some reason whenever he is close by Maia, he acts on impulse. That idiot looks like a wolf, ready to claim his mate.
Now, Alec on the other has always been too reserved, but come on, the guy has his limits. He is a plan maker – or a master behind the curtains, the director - he even asked my sister to pursue William. Really Alec? I thought you were the innocent one. Stupid deceiving bastard with snake blue eyes. (Author Note : 'Snake eyes' if you seen White Collar the TV series, Is the nickname for the main character cause of his sapphire eyes.)
Aline told me of the encounter with Alec - around two weeks ago, on our way home from school. "So Alec came up to me in the hallway, before lunch. And guess what he said." She tells me in a sing-song voice as I drive us back to our house from school. I don't even look to the passenger seat, I just want to ignore her. ' Goodness girl, I don't care what he says ' I think. But my father told me to control my anger so I say "What did Alec say?"
"He told me that Jace is playing a game – of sorts. The game involves him – The Jace Wayland – to make that Clarissa girl to fall in love with him. Then he will crush her heart in tiny little pieces and finally confess his love for me. But I have to help him, by seducing Will." Aline pauses and puts a manicured nail on a lock of her hair - and twists it. "Well I can't say it will be difficult, he is after all a man - a sexy one. Maybe I will even fall for him, but no. Jace is my only love and I will do this for him." She says with a dramatic sigh. "So what do you think. I think it's sexy and romantic".
I held the strong urge to roll my eyes. "Interesting" was all I said. 'But come-on Aline do you really believe Jace loves you? He is using you as a pond.' I thought.
Jace that stupid bastard. I mean come on who thought of this stupid plan. But I can't help thinking this whole 'game- of sorts', will be interesting to watch. Who should I go for? Clarissa with William or Clarissa with Jace. There could even be a Clarissa with me. Now that would make the game more fun, indeed.
Oh well it's time for school.
"Come on Aline, hurry up!" I yell.
She yells back to hold up, while I make my way to the car to turn on the engine. Five minutes later I see her rushing down our porch, then she settles herself on the passenger seat panting.
"Here" she says breathlessly. I roll my eyes.
Once we are close to the school grounds she says "Today is the day I start to pursue William Herondale". I can't help but smirk. Today is the day I pursue Clarissa Garroway. I used to like Jace as a friend but his ego needs to brought down a notch. But I don't have a problem with Will.
. . . . . .
"What's up you guys?" I say as I sit in front of Clary in US History. I nod to all three of them. Which would be Clary, Maia, and Will of course. "Hey", they all mutter. I smile at all three of them. "Will are you going to join a sport?" I ask. "Cause we could really use you on the football team".
He looks at me with his blue eyes. "I really don't have time for a sport. School takes up too much of my time". He says in a relaxed tone. What the heck? Too much of 'my time'? Maybe he is a little too much like Jace.
"Oh you must be really busy then" I answer in a sarcastic voice. He detects my voice and shoots me daggers "Yes, actually all three of us are extremely busy outside of school". I smile slowly at him "Oh? Then you guys work?" I ask. He looks at me with so much annoyance that I can't help but smirk. He must think me a piece of gum under his shoe, always there bothering and irremovable.
"Well that information is not at your disposal. In fact why don't you just-". He gets cut off by a pouting Clary. "Will. Don't speak like that, he was just curious. Why don't you answer politely?"
Will looks at her with wide eyes, while she pouts at him. I am too amused to do anything. But then again, I should interfere because this has gone too far. "Clary it is fine. I should have been more considerate to your personal desires to keep things secretive". She turns slowly to me and gives me a hard look. "Yes, you should have been." She pauses. "Next time, keep your nose to yourself Johnathan. It is none of your business what we do after school."
What the Fuck?
The Bell rings and all the students are at their seats. The teacher calls role and starts the lesson. The teacher explains that we have a test on the American Revolution, but all I can think about is this 'thing' that the three beautiful new students do. Do they participate in illegal activities? Yeah right. As if that were even possible. Will could fit maybe the job, and Maia is very outspoken. But Clary is cute and fun, not the type to do those things at all.
Maybe I should follow them after school today. Should I? The entire period I spend on thinking about whether I should follow or not. A constant back and forth of my brain. The bell rings and I am cut off out of my thoughts as I gather my belongings.

"Red Angel, that was unnecessary to cut me off in front of Johnathan." says Will as we get in his car. I look at him as he settles himself in the drivers seat. Goodness I must have acted like a total bitch. I smile sadly, "Your right. It's just that Johnathan was making you loose precious energy by pushing your buttons, that I had to interject. Next time I will let you handle it. But Will, don't you think it better when we handle things together." I say.
He looks at me, almost to see as if the answer were a lie. "Your right, I am sorry too. I got mad for nothing." I smile, "It's fine, and I am glad we talked through this."
He turns on the engine and turns to me, and kisses me swiftly "So am I. So do we eat before or after the shoot?"
"Before", I answer as he drives us to La Tortilla.

"Find a ride home Aline" I say as I follow Will's car out of the school's parking lot.
