AN: Hey guys, I'm back again. Thank you to everyone who has reviewed or PM me about this fan fiction I really appreciate it. Anyway here's chapter 3 for you guys.
Clary's point of view
I woke up instantly when I smelt the smoke coming through the house.
I climbed out of my bed and opened my door slightly to see if there was any kind of fire around anywhere.
I crept into the kitchen and saw some burnt pancakes lying on the side.
They looked as burnt as I get in the summer or abroad on holiday.
Today is Friday, the day of the 'amazing' sleepover that Tris and Caleb are having.
I sighed and then went back to my bedroom and shutdown the alarm clock before it went off and I glanced at the time, it showed at 06:30 am.
I stumbled over to my wardrobe and pulled out a load of clothes that looked okay and I pulled them on.
I ended up wearing a Black strappy top with a jewelled skull printed on it, and another pair of black skinny jeans and I pulled on my black converses and walked out to the kitchen again to get Samson and take him for another walk.
When I got back to my house after dragging my dog all the way home I saw that both Tris and Caleb were chatting excitedly about their sleepover later.
They smiled at me as I walked in but soon went back to chatting to each other again.
I got myself a plate of pancakes and started to eat them eagerly almost wanting to go to school. That means that only about two days or so until I can talk to Jon again.
I can now tell him how great my classes were even if I sit next to Jace Herondale in some of them and how awesome some of the teachers are and well he can tell me the same back.
The other week I had heard one of his bands songs come onto a radio station and I had sung along with the 'first played song' and I remembered when I had helped them write it too.
The song in question had been called Dance, Dance. (AN: Originally sung by fall out boy. I also do not own any lyrics to that song).
I had almost wanted to laugh when some of the sluts had said in their conversations that the song was so awesome and that they would marry Jonathan Fray one day.
I was also lucky considering the fact that no one had made the connection between me and Jonathan and our last names yet.
I hoped that it would stay that way at least until Christmas when Jon is going to pick me up from school and we'll stay in a rent out place in New York of course but it'll be just me and him for once.
I had only told Simon and Izzy about that he was actually my brother which had made them laugh so loud in P.E that they'd had to sit out for ten whole minutes before they had calmed down enough to play basketball again.
That had been yesterday and today I haven't even started to make anyone laugh yet.
Apparently I had been ordered by Izzy's mum to go to their house for dinner on Monday night which made me feel kind of nervous but I pushed that feeling away at least until Monday after school.
After another terrible car journey full way to much of Tris' music and horrible singing we arrived at school and I scrambled out of the bright red car (which was more like blood red to me but I tried to ignore that part mostly) and I ran up to where Simon and Izzy were sitting half way up on the soft grassy small hill waiting for me.
As I got near to them Simon yelled down the small hill "Hello down there!"
I laughed but it was soon cut off from Izzy almost running down the hill and giving me a tight hug and said "Hey Clary. How are you?"
I got some of my breath back and said "Hey Iz and I'm fine, you?"
She shrugged and said "Sluts tried to throw Coca Cola over me but they forgot to take the lid off so it didn't hit me."
Simon had now reached the top of the hill and I went to ask him what he was doing but her then spun around and yelled out to me and Izzy "Hey guys! CATCH ME!" and with that he started running down the hill straight at us.
Izzy moved out of the way so he would run straight past us but I opened my arms and jumped out of his way at the very last moment so he tried to stop but he failed and didn't even need to stop anyway.
When he re-joined a crying with laughter me and Izzy, he glared at me and said "You never caught me Fray, I'm so sad now."
Still laughing I just about said "Sorry Si – I'm so –mean but – that was hilarious."
And then he started to laugh with us as well so most people started to give us weird looks but none of us cared.
This was another thing to tell Jon about, how super amazing my two best friends were.
The whole day went by so quickly and not even Jace or/and Tobias or Four as he always insists could put my mood down.
When the final school bell rang I asked Simon and Izzy whilst waiting for our relatives to stop flirting if they wanted to help me paint my room on Saturday.
They laughed and said "Okay."
I smiled and said "Anytime is fine and wear old clothes and bring a spare set for later too."
Izzy smiled and asked me "How are we painting it?"
I grinned and said "I painted it black last night two coats are now dry so now we get multi coloured paint balloons and sponges and lots and lots of paint and we throw them at the walls.
Izzy grinned and said "That sounds so fun, is eleven okay?"
I nodded and said "That's fine, just bring an extra set of clothes with you and wear old ones to paint in."
Izzy nodded and then I sighed and said "Do they have to flirt right now?"
Izzy muttered an agreement and Simon smiled but said nothing.
Simon then yelled at his sister Rebecca "Hey Becca, we need to go now!"
Becca looked at Simon but came over to him and they went to her bright pink car. Me and Izzy loved teasing him about having to ride in a car in that colour.
I rolled my eyes as Jace came towards us. I was riding home in Izzy's car so I could tell her where to go and unfortunately Jace had to ride in the car with us too.
Jace glared at me for no random reason so just to annoy him I smiled slightly and said "Hello Goldilocks have a good day?"
Jace scowled at me and said "Fine Red! Until I had to see you."
I fake smiled brightly and said "Wow someone's tired, better not stay up too late tonight then."
Jace glared at me as I got into the passenger seat and he had to climb into the back of the car.
Izzy turned on the radio and I heard the presenter say "… and this is Dance, Dance by The Shadowhunters (AN: Yes I am well aware that it is a terrible and really crappy band name but it was the first thing I thought of) I had to try not to laugh with Izzy as it came on.
I grinned to myself and I started humming along to the words which I knew pretty well as my brother was the main singer in his band.
I should also tell you about my brother's band shouldn't I? Jon is the lead singer and he will occasionally play the piano if the song needs one. Then there is Magnus Bane who looks pretty much like a gay, glittery Sonic the Hedgehog who plays the main guitar. Next it is Will who has longish blonde hair and dazzling blue eyes, Will plays the bass guitar. And finally Ragnor Fell who has dark brown hair and very dark brown eyes. He plays the drum kit.
I could feel eyes watching me and I was hoping it wasn't Izzy so I glanced around at Jace who looked away from me guiltily and I said "Are you wondering why I know all of the lyrics to this song?"
Jace looked back at me again and said "It is one question that is in my mind yes."
I smiled and said "I thought so."
Jace nodded and looked away and asked "And are you going to tell me why you know all the lyrics?"
I smiled and said "Nope."
Jace stared at me and said "That's not fair!"
I answered him with "Life isn't fair."
Jace asked lightly "Why don't you live with your dad?" I froze.
Technically I lived with my dad before I went to my first foster home but he used to abuse and beat me and Jon up so we ran away to the police and he was now in prison, and yes that means I've lived with eight families not seven but I've never told anyone about my father because most hate me for being with seven different families and eight will only make it even worse.
So instead I said "How is that your business?"
Jace studied me curiously and said "It's not; I just want to know about your father because you've never mentioned him before."
I looked away and said "I don't particularly like my father so I don't talk about him much."
Izzy then said "You hate your father but what about your mother? Why are you fostered?"
I looked out of my window and said "My mother is now dead."
Even Jace fell silent which made me curious but I never took my gaze off the window.
Izzy then said "I'm sorry Clary; I didn't mean to bring that up."
I looked at her and said "It's fine, not many people know and most assume that my mother signed me up for adoption and the families all put me back again because they hated me or I did something wrong. But really my life is nothing like that; even though that sounds a lot simpler than what it is but now is not the time for me to spill my darkest secrets out."
Jace stared at me unbelievably and I said "You thought exactly what I just said didn't happen was actually what happened to me didn't you?"
Jace just looked away from me embarrassed and I said "I would appreciate it if you didn't tell anyone else this, only me, Jon, Jon's band mates, Simon and you two know so far. And I want to keep it that way for as long as I possibly can."
Jace nodded and I went back to looking outside and I saw that we were practically at the house.
Most people think I'm weird for not calling the prior house my home but to be honest the only home I've ever had disappeared when I was seven which I can't really remember so to be honest it's basically like I've never had a home.
We pulled into the large driveway and I got my keys out ready to unlock my door.
As I did I could hear Jace and Izzy talking to each other in hushed whispers but I ignored them until we went inside and I smiled at both of them and said "I guess you know your way to Caleb's room Jace and Izzy I'll give you a tour if you want."
Izzy grinned and said "Okay."
Jace looked at me and said "2nd floor the third on the left right?"
I nodded and Jace soon disappeared upstairs and I grinned at Izzy and said "Let's start the tour then Miss Lightwood."
Izzy laughed and said "Oh yes please Miss Fray."
As we went around the massive house we talked a little about each other again but most of it was me pointing out rooms and us looking into them and Izzy was mostly saying "Wow I love…"
We finally finished the whole four floors of the house and we went back to our second floor with the bedrooms on it.
I walked down the small, dark corridor and pushed my door open which made it look very gothic with the poorly lit room and the black walls.
Izzy smiled at the room and saw my sketchpads lying in a pile on my bed.
Izzy asked me lightly "Can I look through your sketchpads."
I went over to the pile and gave her most of them which showed her my fictional and real life photos but not my personal diary one.
Izzy picked up my fictional one first and flicked through it whilst I cleared up some clothes and books off the wooden floor.
By the time I had reordered my books Izzy was down to my last one which had all of my photos of me and my families in it.
I sat next to her and watched how she studied the one of me, my birth mum and Jon in central park all laughing and smiling at the camera for the photo.
Izzy looked up and asked "Is that your mum?"
I nodded and said "Yeah, most people say that I look like her but I think that she is a lot prettier than me."
Izzy shook her head and said "You downgrade yourself too much."
I rolled my eyes and said "Like the sluts upgrade themselves."
Izzy and I burst into laughter and then Tris, Kaelie and Seelie walked through the door and looked at us as though we were crazy which just made us crack up even more before leaving my room again muttering a few words like "Goths these days, or so nerdy." It obviously made me and Izzy lay on my bed crying with laughter again for the second time today.
Izzy soon left for her dinner with both of us still chortling at what happened.
I walked back past the lounge where the sluts and players were sitting in a circle playing truth or dare.
I hated that game, if I chose truth I got the screwed up ones like who do you want to have sex with in the room (Which is completely gross) and if I chose a dare then I have to either do something like kiss the ugliest boy in the room or take off a piece of clothing.
I think that this game was going too far really considering the sluts kept pretending to be grossed out and Kaelie was practically in her underwear with no top, no skirt/shorts and only underwear and some tights were on and I could only think about what's going to happen soon.
I walked through to the kitchen and grabbed myself my mug which Jon had got me which had a skull with a bullet hole in his head and he was saying "I thought I was titanium", (Yes I found that hilarious when we had seen it in a shop and then Jon got it for me for that Christmas and also a chocolate dildo which was really hard to eat when I was in front of someone, especially a stranger.) and I got myself a cup of coffee.
Whilst waiting for my coffee to be ready I grabbed and minute heated popcorn bag which was full of popcorn (Not someone's sick or rabbit droppings *cough cough Jonathan cough cough* and i was so amazing that I cooked it in 58 seconds instead of one minute. (That's a joke between me and Jon but that story will be for another day.) And I poured the popcorn into the bowl before retrieving my already made coffee and walked back into the living room again.
I had hoped to go back out unnoticed but no Kaelie and Seelie had to notice me and I heard Kaelie say "Where are you going with them Clary?" and drawing everyone's attention on me.
I turned to face them and I said "Why do you care Kaelie?"
Kaelie snorted and said "I don't but I'm allowed to ask aren't I?"
I said "You tell me, I made no decisions in American laws you know."
Kaelie looked at me confused but Seelie snapped "Don't be sarcastic Clarissa."
I could feel my anger rising inside of me as I asked "What if I want to be sarcastic Seelie?"
Seelie answered "No one likes sarcasm Clarissa."
I said quietly "Prove it then."
Seelie said "What?!"
I repeated my answer louder "Prove it then."
Seelie glared at me and said "No."
I shot back "Then don't say everyone then."
I walked out of the room and into my own room. It was too dark in there but no way in hell was I going to sit somewhere near them people.
I sighed and then got my IPod and plugged it in and set it onto shuffle so I now blasted Crush Crush Crush by Paramore into my eardrums at full blast.
It sounded slightly weird until I realised that it was one of the songs that my brother had made me sing a cover with them to and it was me singing.
I set it back to the start and listened to the all too familiar lyrics again.
"I got a lot to say to you, yeah, I got a lot to say
I notice your eyes are always glued to me
You're keeping them here and it makes no sense at all"
I didn't sound too bad actually well for me anyway.
"They taped over your mouth
Scribbled out the truth with their lies
Yeah little spies
They taped over your mouth
Scribbled out the truth with their lies
You little spies"
That's probably one of my favourite parts of this song.
"Crush, crush, crush
Crush, crush
(Two, three, four!)
Nothing compares to a quiet evening alone
Just the one, two, I was just counting on
That never happens; I guess I'm dreaming again
Let's be more than this"
I was now humming along with the lyrics
If you want to play it like a game
Well, come on, come on, let's play
'Cause I'd rather waste my life pretending
Than have to forget you for one whole minute"
I was mouthing the words now.
"They taped over your mouth
Scribbled out the truth with their lies
Yeah little spies
They taped over your mouth
Scribbled out the truth with their lies
You little spies"
"Crush, crush, crush
Crush, crush
(Two, three, four!)
Nothing compares to a quiet evening alone
Just the one, two, I was just counting on
That never happens, I guess I'm dreaming again
Let's be more than this now"
I almost could remember singing this next to Jon because I messed around by head banging and dancing whilst singing too.
"Rock and roll, baby, don't you know
That we're all alone now? I need something to sing about
Rock and roll, honey, don't you know, baby
We're all alone now? I need something to sing about
Rock and roll, hey, don't you know, baby
We're all alone now? Give me something to sing about
Nothing compares to a quiet evening alone
Just the one, two, I was just counting on
That never happens, I guess I'm dreaming again
Let's be more than, no!"
You could now hear Jon almost laughing at our success of that song.
"Nothing compares to a quiet evening alone
Just the one, two, I was just counting on
That never happens, I guess I'm dreaming again
Let's be more than, more than this, oh"
I smiled to myself at the memory of that day, basically me and Jon's band had done random covers in Magnus' recording studio for most of the day and then we went to Taki's which is an amazing restaurant for dinner.
I lost my smile when I realised that Jon was still on the Palm Coast in Florida with his band at Divergent College.
I missed him a lot more than I would ever admit to anyone even Jon or myself.
Jon was always the one person who I could talk to about annoying sluts and dickhead idiots but we also had so many funny moments in our lives together that it is almost weird not to hear his laugh every day.
I listened to about another twenty odd songs before turning my IPod off and starting to draw my favourite manga character which is L from Death Note.
Other than his left knee he looked pretty amazing, but I think that's because I have drawn him way to many times before hand. I started to spray my picture with hairspray so it would smudge if someone touched it.
I heard Natalie soon yell out "Diner's ready guys."
I groaned and I could hear everyone talking and laughing with each other. Brilliant, I'll be the odd one out again.
I commanded myself to go get my plate, then eat in silence and then leave again. Never going to talk and never going to pay any attention to them.
I walked into the dining room and smiled at Natalie and Andrew as I sat down.
I almost groaned at that we had some nicely cooked spaghetti bolognaise for tea. I liked it but I couldn't eat too much of it before I felt sick.
I sat in my seat next to Jace and Caleb which I had apparently been reserved for whilst I was getting to the room.
I started to pick at my food and after about half of my proportion I felt sick and slightly faint again so I placed my knife and fork down as gently as I could and tried to make myself as unnoticeable as possible.
Jace obviously being Jace noticed that I was trying to hide myself away and he asked me "Did you have a good day Clary?"
I could feel near enough everyone's stares on me and Jace so I forced a smile onto my face and said "It was okay thanks. What about yours?" inside my head though I was practically screaming I don't give a shit in the world what happened in your day today but I am trying to seem pleasant.
Jace obviously either didn't get my message so he started explaining to everyone how good his day was.
Finally when everyone had stopped eating, I felt really embarrassed because everyone had eaten everything off of their plates but mine was still half full or half empty, whichever way you want to look at it.
I glanced at Andrew desperately who somehow read my message and said "Clary, why don't you take the dishes out tonight?"
I smiled at him gratefully and said "Okay."
I jumped up instantly and grabbed mine, Caleb's and Jace's plate to start off with and hurried into the kitchen which then I was bombarded by Samson who was trying to get attention and then the food.
After all of the plates were in the dishwasher I turned around and saw that Samson had already picked up his half destroyed, flattened football and was creeping towards me hopefully.
I smiled and made to grab his football which made him run backwards into dining room which I then had to follow him in there to try and get him back into the kitchen.
Everyone was looking at me as I tried to wrestle the football out of my dog's tight grip and I soon managed to get it off him after at least two attempts.
My dog barked at me when I held it as high as I could and I ordered "Sit down."
My dog almost eye rolled at me as he sat on the floor and gave me a look reading no can I have it?
I smiled and threw it at the dog and watched him catch it in his mouth and then he pranced about with it in his mouth.
I shook my head and left the room with my dog's pair of big brown eyes staring after me.
About an hour later of reading Tris came into my room and said "Can you shut my dog up."
I raised an eyebrow and said "Ask Caleb! And your dog?"
Tris glared at me and said "Yes Samson is my dog. And he won't shut up for Caleb either."
I just said "I never knew you had a dog Tris, I thought you had a bunny rabbit."
Tris glared at me and said "Don't make me say please."
I pointed out "You just did."
Tris glared at me and said "Please?"
I sighed and followed Tris into the lounge where they had a movie on pause.
As soon as Samson saw me he barked and jumped at me. I don't know if anyone's ever had a heavy Labrador jump at them before but if you have, well you know what it feels like.
My dog knocked me to the floor and pinned me down and started to lick my face.
I commanded him "Samson off!"
My dog jumped off me and then went to bark but I quickly said "Samson shut it."
My dog panted and I told him off "Samson you have to listen to Tris and Caleb."
My dog lowered his head but as I looked up he sneaked up to one of my hands and rubbed his head against it.
I said to Tris "There you go. One quiet and happy dog."
Tris glared at me as I went to wash the drool and slobber off my face.
When I went back into the lounge Tris looked at me and said "Thank you for getting my dog to shut up."
I raised my eyebrow and asked "Your dog?"
Tris nodded and said "Now get back to your rabbit."
I smiled to myself as some of the others snickered and I said "Why of course I'll check on Bunniekins for you."
Tris asked "Bunniekins?"
I asked innocently "Isn't that what your rabbits called? Well that's what I hear you call your rabbit anyway."
Tris blushed and as Kaelie went to stroke Samson he growled at her and ran back behind me still growling.
Yeah, you could tell that he was my dog. And I now loved him twice as much then before.
Anyway I stroked his dark golden fur and I cooed to him "Who's a good boy?"
My dog rested his head on my shoulder and let me give him a massive hug.
Tris went to stroke him too but he growled at her and stood next to me.
I smiled and said "You be a good boy for Trissy now won't you?"
My dog gave me an unimpressed look which made me laugh as I walked back into my room.
They all typically got drunk or they were high but I think drunk is the more likely option (Not that the high part would surprise me though).
So when I went out at half two in the morning most of them were passed out or getting to that stage anyway.
I muttered to myself "I need a sharpie really."
I heard someone snore quietly and I almost laughed as I realised that it was Seelie.
I went back into my room and came out with my sharpie pen packet and started to doodle all over their faces.
Especially Kaelie's, Seelie's, Jace's and Tobias'.
I giggled to myself again and I got myself a quick drink and I went back into my bedroom.
At ten o clock the next morning I heard everyone's shout of anger as they realised what I'd done to them.
They all were arguing and I had tried my best not to sit there laughing whilst eating my bowl of cereals earlier.
I also giggled as they tried to wash it off because I had managed to use my waterproof pens so no water could wash them off.
They all came into my room as I was reading The Last Stand of Dead Men by Derek Landy.
I glanced up from my book and said "Oh hey guys, I like your decorations. They look very- very you guys."
Jace scowled at me and said "You did this so don't bother asking who did it to us."
I said very straight faced "I know it was me, I do remember last night unlike you lot."
They all glared at me but I pulled my camera out and snapped a photo of them all glaring at me.
I got ones of them individually too.
I smiled and said "Thanks for the photos; I'm sure they'll be on Facebook soon."
Kaelie screamed out "If you even dare do that then I'll tell them your secret."
I raised my eyebrows and spread my hands into a shrug and said "Tell the whole room if you want to. Even though I have no idea what you're talking about."
Kaelie looked around at everyone and then back at me and said "Your father he-…"
I tilted my head and interrupted her by saying "Thank you for that input and I may point out that I haven't done the photos yet."
Kaelie glared at me and said "You told me to tell you the secret."
I smiled and said "And that was before I knew that it was about one of my dad's."
Kaelie gave me a strange look and said "Anyway I researched you and it said that your dad kicked you out of his house."
I heard everyone take a breath and I said "And where did you get this information from? Oh and which dad?"
Kaelie said "An official website and they said that his name was Val-.."
I then interrupted her by saying "Oh that dad."
Kaelie then sneered "Oh that dad? Is that all you've got? Why did he kick you out of his house Clary? It was because you weren't wanted was you? Your brother was loved but you weren't. You got revenge didn't you though? You -…"
I snapped at her "Get out of my room now."
Kaelie still said "You put him away in prison for stuff which no believed he did until you came along and proved it."
I couldn't be bothered to be nice enough to ask her again so I then picked her up easily and threw her outside of my door maybe slightly too hard but I didn't care about that at that precise moment so I turned to the others and snapped "Now you've had your show get out of this room before I do the same to you."
They all rushed out except from Caleb and Tris who both tried to apologise to me but I snapped at them "When I said get out I meant you two as well."
Tris then said "That wasn't meant to happen Clary; I'll talk to them if…"
I snapped again "Why didn't you talk to them before they said it then?"
Tris looked at me and I said "Just get out. Go comfort your dickheaded, arrogant, and ugly boyfriends and your slutty, stupid little, rich brats girlfriends and leave me alone."
The both left and slammed the door shut behind them.
I didn't move from the window until I heard everyone walking away again.
When I was sure that everyone had disappeared I sat down on my bed and started to cry silently.
Most of it had been true. Valentine was mine and Jon's birth father but he never knew me at birth. The first month or so was okay but after that he started to hit and abuse me for doing badly at school or answering a question wrongly. I knew that my father raped a lot of young girls too but I never said a word until I was twelve (Which was when I then moved to my foster families.) and I ran away and went to the police and told them everything about my dad and the girl and even me. The police had told me that I did a good thing to tell them but at the court trail when I said my statement and a few of the raped victims did as well and he was charged guilty before Valentine had left as I had exited at the same time he had grabbed my wrist and said "I will get you for that Clarissa Adele Morgenstern, I will be the end of you one day. And to love is to destroy and to be loved is to be destroyed." And then he was taken away to jail and he's still in there now which is lucky for me really.
I laid back on my bed and thought what a normal family would be like, a regular one not a posh rich one just a normal one.
It must be good to live in one like that, must be nice to have a family that you could love and trust properly. In mine it was only me, Jon and mum. And well mum's left us now so I miss her a lot too but not as much as Jon.
Jon is basically my closest friend and person I've ever had.
A knock on my door cut through my thoughts so I yelled out "Go away unless you're a serial killer who wants to take my life away from me, Isabelle Lightwood or Simon Lewis or my brother then any of you four can come in."
The door opened and both Izzy and Simon stood there looking at me and Izzy said "Well it's a good job that we both count as one each then."
I smiled at them and said "Yeah, I suppose it is."
I was already in my painting clothes and so were Izzy and Simon so we found some floor and furniture sheets to cover most things except the walls and ceiling.
I went out to the garage and gave Izzy and Simon a few pots of paint each and we all took the sponges up with us too.
I made the paint balloons last night and they surprisingly worked fairly well so I'd kept that idea and mixed it with the sponge idea.
I shut my door and pushed shuffle on my IPod so it blared out Raise your glass by Pink.
I picked up a blue balloon and said to both Izzy and Simon who were standing next to the wall "Think fast." And I lobbed it which made blue paint splatter on the wall and a few bits went on them.
They both laughed and we ended up having a paint fight which was even more fun than it would be if it was with Kaelie and Seelie.
Maia, Uriah, Marlene and Lynn showed up and joined in too which didn't really work but soon my walls were splattered with fresh paint.
We were soon all laughing at our paint covered selves and singing along with the music that was playing.
About halfway through Izzy said to me "I love what you did to them all by the way."
I grinned and said "Waterproof Sharpies."
Izzy grinned and I said "When we're clean, I'll show you the photos that I got."
Izzy grinned and we went back to our paint fight.
Once we ran out of our paint balloons we got sponges and dipped them in paint before lobbing them at the ceiling. Surprisingly it was pretty fun to do and we all were laughing at each other's faces when the sponge came at them.
After four hours of painting my room, I decided that it finally looked like a room where I would like and fit in at last.
The walls were now mostly splattered with different shades of blue, red, purple, greens. The ceiling had now got sponge patterns across it in the different shades of colours too.
I decided to get them a few drinks which were where we met Jace, Tobias, Caleb and Tris. They all studied me and my friends who were covered in different paints and I asked them jokingly "Anyone want a hug?"
Caleb grinned and said "I'm good thanks."
I grinned back and said "Surprise hug attack then." And I ran around to him and gave him a paint shaped me mark on his body.
Caleb just looked down at me and said "Wow! My life is so complete now."
I spat out some of my water choking on it and said "You're welcome Caleb."
Caleb laughed and said "Go get dressed Clary."
I laughed and said "Not until my friends are first."
That made Tris laugh and say "You watching them strip down then Fray?"
I smiled and said "Nope, your welcome to if you want to though."
Tris made a face and said "Gee thanks Red."
"You're welcome Barbie." We both smiled at each other and I told my friends "Lucky we have three bathrooms huh?"
My friends all laughed and we went and got changed into our original clothes.
We went back to the kitchen and I asked Caleb jokingly "I see you've changed too. I really liked that other top you was wearing."
Jace and Tobias laughed and Caleb just went along with the joke by saying "I know so did I but something small and red hugged me whilst she was covered in paint."
I looked at him sadly and said "How sad."
My friends then all went home except Izzy as Jace and Tobias were staying for another hour or so and she had to drive them to her house as Tobias lives next door.
We all were sitting in the lounge watching a The Lord of the Rings which was slightly embarrassing for me as I kept accidently talking along with the movie.
So I escaped the awkward moment by saying "Coffee anyone?"
Caleb, Tris, Izzy and Tobias held out their cups but Jace shook his head so I took all of the cups out into the kitchen and turned our older kettle on.
I heard Jace announce that he needed headache tablets and Caleb answers to him by telling him to ask me in the kitchen.
I heard the door shut quietly behind Jace as he asked "Where are they."
I automatically said "Cupboard next to your head third self on the left."
Jace rummaged around in the cupboard until he found them and asked "Any chance of some water?"
I nodded and grabbed a small glass and quickly filled it with some tap water for him.
He didn't say thanks but I didn't care really, I was wondering why he had only come when I had come into the kitchen.
I soon found out.
"Was what Kaelie said about you true?" He asked me sounding curious.
I looked at him quickly and said "Believe whatever you want, I don't particularly care."
Jace said "I want to believe the truth but I think that not many people know about that truth, do they Clarissa?"
I just asked him whilst staring out the window "None of your business what the truth is and if you're really that desperate then go on that god damn website and search it on there."
Jace said "It doesn't actually say too much on there about you as a person."
I raised my eyebrows and said "So what does it say?"
Jace said "Your name, date of birth, family and gender. That's pretty much it. Kaelie just researched your dad too."
I glared at the coffee cups and said "Well if you want to believe your skanky little slut of a girlfriend then go ahead and do just that."
Jace sighed and walked off leaving me in the kitchen alone.
Soon the film ended and everyone went home. I walked to my bedroom and went onto face time hoping to see Jon online.
As soon as I logged on I saw Jon's name and it read online so went to click on it but just before I did his name vanished to offline.
I sighed and logged out again. Only a day or so now until I see him next.
I started to doodle in my sketchpad and it turned out to be a pegehorn.
I rolled my eyes and shut the book up again before waiting for my paint to dry.
I checked on it every hour and after two times of checking it was finally dry.
I took off all of my paint proof sheets and started to move my furniture about making everything straight again.
I also got out a load of my unpacked moving boxes and I started to open them and slowly unpack everything from each box and finding them a place somewhere in my room.
Soon two out of the four walls were covered in either rock band or fandom posters.
I also put my photo of me, Jon and mum in silver photo frame and put it on my bedside table.
I found an older photo album from my mum's collection holding all of mine and Jon's baby photos up until I was about five years old.
I now think that this room is starting to feel like my home and a part of me for now at least.
I sighed and leaned back resting my head against the backboard of my bed and left myself thinking about all of the memories I held of me with my other foster families. None were amazing but it could have been worse I suppose.
I spent the rest of the day reading my manga collection again. And soon it was night again and tomorrow I can talk to Jon once again.
AN: Well there was chapter 3 guys. It's pretty rubbish I know but I have so much homework and I needed to update the fan fiction so I just wrote this one fairly quickly. Please review and tell me what you think of it. So until next time guys its goodbye from me.
