AN: Hey Guys! Sorry I haven't updated in ages but I've had so many new ideas for stories, as well as writing up more chapters for my already published stories and doing homework and revision for loads of my school work. Anyway now my exams and stuff is over I can write more. And thanks to everyone who has reviewed or PM me it really means a lot. Anyway I'll let you guys read on with the story and I hope you enjoy the chapter.
Clary's point of view
I walked quickly into my art lesson hoping to beat Jace so I didn't have to put up with him all lesson but unfortunately my plan yet again failed miserably as Jace was already sitting in his seat with all of his equipment out already and seemed to be almost waiting for someone.
I remembered last night when I'd finally let him have a few pieces of information about me but not every single detail.
I hope I didn't make another mistake in my shitty life.
I walked over to my chair next to him and slid into it and greeted Jace with a small smile.
I looked away quickly and grabbed my stuff out of my bag and then listened to Mrs Lakewood ask everyone for their homework which me and Jace had spent hours on last night.
I got my stuff out of my bag and then the rolled up tube that was the painting of Jace and as the teacher walked past she opened it up and exclaimed "Wow you two, this is amazing."
I didn't really know why everyone says that about my drawings, they're really not that good in my opinion.
Jace however told the teacher "Clary drew it Miss, she's amazing at art isn't she?"
Mrs Lakewood nodded and said "Yes Clary, it's so nice, the shading and the lines are so perfect."
I told the teacher as Jace dumped it on me "Jace was also a very good person to draw as he sat so still."
Jace glared at me witch I replied back with a smirk and then Mrs Lakewood told me "It's a good job that you're tutoring Max Lightwood Miss Fray, and you and Jace seem to work well together."
I and Jace both smiled politely at the teacher and then as she walked off Jace hissed at me "Why did you mention me in it?"
I hissed back "Because you made it sound as if it was all me."
Jace sighed and we went back to our work in our sketchpads which was to make a page that represents you.
So I had a midnight black background which represented my past, then a swirl of red which represented my hair, then it was a swirl of a white blonde to show Jon's hair, and now I wasn't sure what to do.
Those things practically represented my whole life, a dark past, and then me and Jon going through everything together. I had barely anything else to do to show anyone about me.
I decided to paint a book in one corner to show my love of books and Luke too.
By the time I had finished my book painting the lesson was over and it was break time.
I dried my paint and then Uriah dragged me off to the canteen to meet our friends.
Break and Calculus passed quickly and soon it was time for P.E which involved me and fighting, the worst combination in the world when I was at school normally.
Once everyone was in the gym Hodge yelled out to everyone "Okay guys settle down! My name is Hodge Starkweather and I'm a kickboxing teacher down at the Gym. I recognise a few of you who I have taught in the past."
He smiled warmly at me which I smirked at in return as everyone turned to me confused that Hodge recognised me.
Hodge told everyone "To start off with I'm going to do a few practise sort of thing to show you that if you push yourself hard, you can achieve a lot of things."
Hodge then did a mock fight between him and his two accomplices who were both defeated by Hodge easily, then as one of them injured himself Hodge sighed and then called to me "Clary, you up to kicking someone's ass today?"
I half smiled and replied "Whose ass am I kicking?"
Hodge asked me hopefully "Same as before, me and this one and you by yourself."
I told him without smiling "Bet on it old man."
Hodge grinned at me and said "Okay Clary, do your best."
I smirked and said "Or my worst, whichever way you look at it."
Hodge smiled and said "Count down together?"
I nodded and we both said together "Three, two, one, fight."
The other man went straight at me with a kick to the head which I dodged and grabbed his leg and threw him off balance. Hodge leapt at me next but it took a little longer to get him away with a kick in the stomach.
Soon the other man was out with a bloody nose, and a suspiciously looking sprained wrist.
As Hodge yet again flipped me over after I kicked him, instead of knocking his legs out from underneath him I landed in a standing position and then kicked him in the back of one of his knees which then gave away making Hodge stumble slightly and I then punched him straight in the face and he fell to the floor in defeat.
Then I half realised that the whole of my P.E class was staring at me and that I had just beaten two people about twice the size of me in a fist to fist fight and in front of them in the school gym.
I ignored the stares and went over to Hodge and whispered "You okay?"
Hodge nodded and said "Ouch yeah, fine just a bit of a weird landing."
I nodded and then offered my hand to Hodge to help him up like I have done so many times beforehand at the gym.
Hodge accepted it and he said to me jokingly "Well when I said try your best I didn't mean kill everyone."
I replied "I told you or my worst. Not my fault you didn't listen."
Hodge laughed and then said to the class "Okay guys there's your demonstrations done and now you know that just because you're like Clary here it doesn't mean you can't beat fully grown men like me."
Hodge gave me a smile and I half smiled back but even that was slightly forced.
We were then put into fighting pairs and I was up against Sebastian which was just my luck.
When we fought Sebastian had started and I wasn't fighting my hardest so I didn't injure him to badly but it got slightly out of hand when Sebastian then taunted to me "Come on Fray, you can do better than this, or are you too scared? Are you that scared of me that you want to go cry in your mummy's lap and stay there forever and have your daddy comfort you."
At the mention of my family I saw complete red around him and I snarled back "You don't know the first thing about me."
After that I only saw flashes of what I was doing and I started kicking and punching him quicker than he could register that I was doing it.
It wasn't until Hodge grabbed me by the waist and literally dragged me away from Sebastian's curled up body on the floor.
Hodge muttered in my ear "Hey, calm down okay?"
I took a few breaths before realising what I'd done out of anger and how I'd just acted exactly like my dad used to and I slumped and calmed myself down and stared as the sluts ran to him and sent me furious glares.
I glanced at Hodge who was still dragging me away and he whispered to me "What the hell did he do? One minute you were being nice to him next minute you went all Hulk smash on him."
I looked away ashamed of myself and said quietly "He told me to go and cry in my mum's lap and have my dad comfort me and I just lost it. I don't know why I just felt angry."
Hodge told me "Okay but try not to do that again and stay over here whilst I talk to your teacher."
I nodded and then ran my fingers through my hair and sat down on the bench willing for people to leave me alone.
As soon as the teacher let us go I speed walked away and into the changing rooms and was already changed by the time every other girl had come into the room.
Most of the sluts glared at me and yelled at me across the room "Freak, girls shouldn't be able to do that." Or "How dare you do that to him."
I ignored them and went outside for a walk.
I wanted so desperately to call Jon and tell him how I just fought someone harshly just because they mentioned my family but I knew that he'd be in lessons and he wouldn't be able to answer my call so I was alone in this for now.
I sat down under a tree so I didn't have to face anyone for a while but the plan failed as soon as the lunch bell went because Izzy and Simon found me straight away and came running or in Izzy's case half running half stumbling in her massive heels.
Simon obviously got to me first and he sat down beside me and said "Hey Fray, that was awesome back there with Verlac, one minute you were like bitch please I'm a badass and then you were like HULK SMASH! Then you were like bitch please told you I was badass."
I looked at Simon and asked "Was he okay?"
Simon nodded and said "Barely any bruises let alone any serious injuries."
I sighed and felt a weight lift off my chest slightly and I asked Izzy "Is Si telling the truth about Verlac being okay?"
Izzy nodded and sat down on my other side and said "Yeah he's fine trust me."
I smiled and said "I trust you two."
Izzy linked her arm through mine and then said "Good because I trust you both too."
Simon asked me and Izzy and pointed at our linked arms "Are you two going down the yellow brick road?"
I answered waggling my eyebrows "Maybe."
Simon laughed and said "Oh can I come?"
I and Izzy glanced at each other and we both said "Sure."
Izzy offered her other arm out to Simon which he took and then he started skipping and humming 'We're off to see the wizard, the wonderful wizard of Oz."
Both me and Izzy had to half skip half run to keep up with Simon's long leg stride but it was still fun just the same.
When we got to the canteen doorway Simon did a girly gasp and squealed "We're here!"
All three of us laughed and we walked into the canteen and over to our usual table where I was greeted by everyone there saying "Hey Fray, cool Hulk smash by the way."
This was one of them moments when I realised how much harder my life would be without these few people.
I told them "I didn't Hulk smash, the hulk is tall and ugly and green the only thing we have in common is that we're both ugly."
All of my friends laughed and Izzy told me "No Clary you have green eyes too."
I rolled my eyes and said "Shut up."
Izzy grinned and said "Make me."
I grinned back and said "Okay then."
I attacked her by tickling her and pressing her pressure points which made her squeal and shriek really high pitched and when I stopped Izzy said "Well that's one way."
I smiled and said "Yup that is indeed one way."
Izzy scowled at me and I told her "Scowling really doesn't suit you Isabelle Lightwood."
Izzy laughed and soon I joined her.
I then felt a voice whisper in my ear "Meet me at the oak tree in five."
I glanced at the speaker and saw it was Caleb who was now walking away from us staring at me.
I nodded slightly and he looked away again.
Then my thoughts suddenly went to Jonathan, oh god how am I going to explain that some douche pissed me off in my P.E lesson and I did a complete dad and beat him up with no mercy or guilty feelings and everything.
I whispered to Izzy and Simon where I was going and they both nodded and I stood up and left.
I walked across the field and saw that Caleb was already there waiting for me.
I approached him slightly nervous and as he stared at me I shifted uncomfortably and said quietly "Don't tell me that it was amazing. It really wasn't."
Caleb smiled slightly and said "You read my mind and trust me Claire; that was some serious ass kicking you did there."
I shook my head and said "No it wasn't; it was horrible and I never want to do that again."
Caleb asked me "Why did you go all kill you mode?"
I told him quietly "He talked to me about my mum and dad and I just lost it."
Caleb frowned and asked "What did he say?"
I repeated it as quietly as I could "He said 'Come on Fray, you can do better than this, or are you too scared? Are you that scared of me that you want to go cry in your mummy's lap and stay there forever and have your daddy comfort you.' And I just lost it at the mention of my family which is stupid really but it just happened."
Caleb looked even more pissed than I was now and he told me "I could kill that idiot right now."
I gently put my hand on his arm and I said softly "Caleb you'll only make it worse, just let it go."
Caleb looked down at me and said "I will this time but if he ever says something about them again he might end up with my fist in his face."
I added on "And a twisted testicle from me too."
Caleb laughed and said "Okay go have fun, maybe let your hair down."
I shook my head sadly and said "You are nearly as bad as Jonathan there, why do I always have the brothers who make the stupidest of jokes?"
Caleb grinned and said "I think bad luck stalks you Clarissa."
I smiled and said "I know it does Caleb."
I then waked back towards my friends and turned and waved at Caleb who waved back at me.
When I arrived at my friends group they stopped talking and Simon looked like he was blushing.
I told them "You can talk when I come over you know."
They all nodded and went back to their own conversation but Izzy and Simon instantly left them and started another one up with me.
"So what did big foster bro want?" Simon asked.
I replied "To ask why I went 'hulk smash' on Verlac."
Simon nodded and then the bell rung for registration which meant I had to put up with Verlac complaining or pissing me off again.
I sighed before giving up and walking into registration with Simon and Izzy.
