The door slamming awoke Clary with a start. She quickly sat up on her bed and looked around. "What the hell….?"

Her roommate, Isabelle, was half way dressed. Clary couldn't help but stare. Isabelle was perfect in everyway and Clary knew that she was going to feel like a dwarf next to her.

Isabelle turned around and smiled. "Hi"

Clary smiled, averting her eyes to Isabelle's face instead of anything below. "Hi" Clary started getting out of bed, while Isabelle pulled a green camisole on.

Isabelle walked up to her and stuck out her hand. "I'm Isabelle Lightwood, your roommate."

Clary took her hand and shook it. "Clary Fray"

Clary looked around desperately for a clock. "By any chance do you know what time it is?"

Isabelle smiled, all her pearly whites showing. "Sure, it's seven thirty"

Class is going to start in forty minutes, Clary thought. I need to get ready.

"Okay. Thanks"

"No problem" Isabelle said, turning back to her part of the room.

Clary then bent down to pick up her duffle bag in search for a towel and her bathing supplies.


Jace slipped on a regular black t-shirt. He just finished with his shower and his hair was still damp, drying in different directions. Girls liked his hair anyway, especially when it looked like he had just gotten out of bed.

"Hey Simon, you ready yet? I'm starved" Jace yelled to Simon, who was in the bathroom.

"When are you not hungry? Seriously Jace; Give me five more minutes!"

Jace grinned. He was always hungry. He stuffed his red and black Jordan sneakers on at the exact same time Simon came out of the bathroom.

"Ready beautiful?"

Simon rolled his eyes. "Let's go"

Walking out of the building, the boys walked to the cafeteria to eat breakfast. Jace took out his phone to check the time. It was seven fifty; they had enough time. What Jace really wanted to do was to find Clary.

Opening the cafeteria door, Simon said, "Where'd you go last night? I woke up in the middle of the night and you weren't there."

Walking into the breakfast line, Jace shrugged. "Had to pee"

"You weren't in the bathroom Jace. That's the reason I got up."

Jace picked up his breakfast, an orange juice and headed for the cashier line. Simon wasn't too far behind him.

"Were you with Heather?"

Jace seemed puzzled. "Heather? Who's Heather?"

"That girl you were at the party with this past weekend. Everyone knows about you and Heather." Simon said, giving the cashier his money.

"Well apparently, I don't know about me and Heather. We aren't together." Jace said, walking to their regular eating table. At the table was Alec already with his food. Sitting next to him was Sebastian. Does this mean Clary is going to join us?

Jace smiled to himself and slowed reaching the table.

"But you guys did do something, didn't you?"

Jace turned to Simon and grinned. "Oh, believe me, she was begging for more."

Simon started laughing. "Awesome, man"

"Hey guys," Alec said, his mouth full of pancakes. "What's so awesome?"

"Jace and Heather" Simon said, drowning his pancakes in syrup. "Yum, this looks so good."

Jace rolled his eyes and took a bite of his toast.

"Wait, Heather Flynn? In our anatomy class?"

Jace nodded. "Yes, and what an anatomy she has."

"Wow," Alec said, shaking his head. "You're a fucking idiot"

"That I might be, but at least I get some" Jace said laughing. Simon then elbowed Jace on the side. "Who's that?" he whispered gesturing toward the boy next to Alec, who was smirking.

"Oh right, Sebastian this is Simon. Simon this is Sebastian."

"Hey," Simon said. "What's up, man?"

"Hey, nothing" Sebastian said grinning. "First day"

"Oh cool. You'll love it here. Lots of hot girls" Simon said grinning.

Sebastian laughed. "I see that."

"Holy mother of Jesus," Simon said in awe. "Alec, is it me or does your sister gets hotter every time I see here?"

Alec shrugged. "She's my sister Simon. That would be weird of me to answer that question."

Jace laughed and Sebastian turned around to see who they were talking about.

"She's the tall black haired girl coming over here." Alec said answering the question in Sebastian's head.

Sebastian turned back around, his mouth hanging open. "Holy mother of Jesus"

"My exact words" Simon said before taking a sip of his orange juice.

"Hey boys," Isabelle said sitting down next to Sebastian. "I don't think I've seen you here before. You knew?"

He nodded slowly not able to speak a single word.

"I'm Isabelle. You are…?"

"He's Sebastian"

They all looked up to see the petite red haired girl Jace had been with earlier this morning.

"Clary," Isabelle smiled. "You know him?"

"He's my older brother" she said, sitting down next to Isabelle. There was about five inches away from her and Jace. She looked up at him and smiled.

He smiled and said, "Hey"

Before she could say anything in return, Isabelle spoke up. "Guys, this is Clary. She's my roommate. Clary this is Jace, my adopted brother, Alec, my actual brother, and Simon, their friend"

"…And future boyfriend." Simon said grinning.

Isabelle rolled her eyes, smiling.

"Simon, I think its time to give up on that dream. It's obvious that the dream just doesn't like you back" Jace said, patting Simon on the back.

Alec agreed. "Plus, if I were to pick her boyfriend it definitely wouldn't be you."

"Gee guys, I feel so loved, thanks" Simon said, his voice full of sarcasm.

"Anytime," Jace said, grabbing another piece of toast of his plate and taking a hug bite out of it.

"Um, do any of you know where building three is?" Clary spoke up.

Before anyone else could answer, Jace spoke up. "Yeah, that's where my first class is. I could take you there if you want…"

Clary smiled and nodded her head. "Please. I wouldn't want to be late on my first day."

"Exactly," Jace said smiling. "We should go now then, it's a long walk."

Clary nodded and got up from the table. "See you guys later"


"What school did you go to before?" Jace asked his hands stuffed in his pockets. As they walked together silently, they had been thinking silently about each other.

Clary looked up at him. "Uh, well it was nowhere near here. I lived here in New York but it was in the city."

Jace nodded. "Oh well, that's cool. Miss your friends huh?"

She shrugged. "Well, I didn't have many friends; only a best friend. Her name was Crystal but then there was Sebastian; he was like the best friend who was always there."

As they approached a building, the announcements came on. "Happy Wednesday East Academy Tigers! Today is April 7th 2009! Let's make it an awesome day Tigers!"

Clary smiled while Jace shook his head.

"They always do that?"

"Everyday" Jace groaned.

"Jace! Jace!"

The two teens both turned around at the exact moment. Running their way was a slim teenage girl with straight blond hair. She had a very short skirt and a skimpy tank top on.

Clary had to admit though, she was pretty.

"Jenna, hey," Jace said, stuffing his hands in this pockets farther. "What's up?"

Clary thought he seemed to act a little too cool for this kind of situation. Maybe that was just him.

"Well, you didn't call me this morning like you said you were going to. I kind of got worried." Jenna said, walking closer, swaying her hips sensually.

Jace didn't seem to notice. "Yeah. Sorry. I woke up late."

Jenna blinked a few times. "Uh, oh. Well okay then." She then turned to Clary. "Who are you?"

Clary seemed shocked to even be put into the awkward conversation. "Uh, I… uh"

"Her name's Clary Fray. She's new here."

"Well obviously because she's still here." She faked a smile and shooed her. "You can leave now."

Clary was even more shocked now. Why are the girls here bitches? Isabelle isn't one, but then again, she's my roommate.

Clary turned around to the main door to the building and opened it. Before walking in, she turned around to see if maybe Jace was behind her. She thought wrong because he was still there with Jenna or whoever the hell she was.

"I guess I'm going to have to find the rest of the way on my own." She said to herself.


Clary's walking away.

Jace's body started aching.

"—so being the cheer captain this year is going to be tough, but I think I can handle it."

Jenna was going on and on about cheerleading when Jace didn't even give a damn if she wanted to jump off a cliff.

"Mmm, well Jenna, it's been great really, but I have to go. You know class starts in roughly thirty seconds and if I'm late again Mrs. Green just might have my head." Jace said, backing away to the glass door.

"Uh, okay then. Are you going to—"

Before she could finish, Jace was already inside the building and racing down the hall.

Jenna huffed and folded her arms across her large chest.

The bell then rang, signaling first class had officially started.

"Oh, fuck!" Jenna exclaimed stomping her foot.

"Late again Ms. Powell" The dean said walking up to her. "That's two strikes. Come to my office please."

"Oh fine whatever" She said, walking with him to the building everyone hated to go to.


"Nice of you to finally join us, Mr. Wayland," Mrs. Green said. Jace slipped in the door just a couple of seconds after the bell rang, but the teacher at the desk still noticed.

Jace took a bow and grinned. Everybody laughed. "My pleasure, Mrs. Green."

The teacher rolled her eyes and glared at him. "Take a seat Jace"

Jace nodded his head and turned to find an empty seat. To his convenience he found one right where he wanted it. Next to her.
