I DO NOT own the TMI series Cassandra Clare does!
Chapter 5
Simons POV:
I walked up the few steps leading to Clary's front door. I hadn't talked to her since the funeral; even then we didn't speak much. Izzy's death had caused devastation in all of us, Especially for Maryse and Robert Lightwood. After losing their youngest son Max they didn't quite seem the same, and this defiantly didn't help.¬¬¬
I knocked on the door. When there was no answer I searched the drive way trying to see if they were home, sure enough I saw Luke's truck. This time I tried the door bell, and Jocelyn answered. She wasn't looking directly at me either, like she was sting off at something in the distance. She had red marks around her eyes, like the ones you get after fighting back tears, or wiping them away.
"Jocelyn, is everything okay?" I asked Clay's mother.
She looked at me as she began to speak; "Simon, have you seen Clary?"
"No. Why? What's going on?"
"Clary's not here. Nobody's talked to her since the funeral."
I couldn't believe it Clary? Missing? "Is anybody else missing?" I asked Jocelyn.
The phone stated to ring.
"No," she said and picked up the phone. "Hold on."
She answered the phone. As she greeted the caller and proceeded to nod and ask questions I sat there blankly cursing quietly to myself. Going over in my mind what could have possibly happened to Clary, or where she could have gone and why, of course I had no idea. Valentine was out of the picture so he couldn't have taken her. The only two thing's I could come up with was; Isabelle. She had died a couple of days ago and Clary had seemed pretty upset. But she wouldn't have run away because of that. Shadowhunter's where supposed to be used to this kind of stuff. Death was a frequent thing when you were a Shadowhunter.
The only other thing I could come up with was; Jace. Something could have happened between her and Jace. It would have had to be pretty horrible for her to react like this though. They had gone through rough times before. It would have to be worse.
Jocelyn had just got off the phone.
"Simon. That call, Alec and Magnus are missing to."
"Have you spoken to Jace yet?" I asked
"No, but-"I cut her off.
"I'll talk to him. See if he knows where Clary might have gone. Or if he at least has an idea."
Alec's POV:
I looked across the table at Clary. It's hard to believe that we didn't always get along. She looked incredibly bored though. Magnus was the more social one, but he was making breakfast. She sighed.
"What do you think we should do today Clary?" I asked trying to make conversation.
"Well I've never been here, have you?" she replied.
"Magnus obviously you've been here what should we do?" I asked Magnus.
"Well we should probably call Jocelyn. I imagine she's freaking out."
"Oh my god, I totally forgot. She's going to kill me." Clary said.
"Well we don't want that to happen, I'll call her." Magnus said.
Magnus was already cooking he didn't need to deal with Jocelyn. "No I will your busy already." I said.
"Thanks Alec." Magnus said. He started over toward me then kissed me. Everyone new but it still somehow surprised me every time he kissed me.
When I left the living room I called at Magnus "Where's the phone?"
"It's on the table beside the couch!" Magnus called. I picked up the phone and started to dial Jocelyn's number.
Clary's POV:
As Alec was dialing my mom to tell her and everyone else that we were fine I started thinking about Cole. He was a good looking guy that's for sure I mean I would have to be blind to not notice those secretive grey eyes, that sexy bedraggled hair... HE WAS DROOL WORTHY! Don't even get me started with his body... but I was soon snapped out of my inner thoughts by Alec shouting to me.
"Clary, Your mom wants to talk to you!" He shouted I responded hastily scared what she was going to say.
"Hello mom." I responded. I reminded myself that I needed to soften her up to let me stay.
"Clary, is that you? Are you okay? Where are you?!-" I cut her off before any more questions could be asked.
"Yes mom it's me, of course I'm fine I'm with Magnus and Alec, and I'm in Canada." I responded every single question.
"Ok." My mom responded she hesitated but asked the question I really didn't want to answer. "Why did you leave Clary? And before you ask yes you're allowed to stay in Canada but only because Alec and Magnus are with you."
"Why don't you ask JACE mom I bet he knows... Well mom I have to go I'm sorry but I'm tired hungry and have stuff to do." I replied. I didn't mean to snap at I just did.
"Okay sweetie," my mom replied" call me later" she responded then hung up after I said goodbye. The truth is I didn't really have to leave. I just wanted to call Cole. He is someone who seems friendly enough I thought to myself. But little did I know Cole and I would become much more than friends.
