JACEPOV

"What did you do, Jace?! Why did you yell at Clary like that?!" Isabelle yelled at me as she pointed at the open door with which Clary left open as she ran out.

"I told her to go back to New York, that's what I did." I answered, "What's wrong with that?"

"What's wrong with that?! Jace, what you said, was wrong! Didn't you see her face?! You practically destroyed her! You-" Isabelle shouted back.

"Izzy, calm down." Alec interrupted, "Jace, Isabelle's right. What you said was not nice at all. You practically did destroy her. I know that she's your sister, but the way you talked to Clary, was definitely not the way to talk to a sister."

"Ugh, I had to do it, okay?! Clary's my sister and I care about her! If she was hurt because of all this, I don't know what I'll do." I yelled, turning around to face the window, "Now will you please just leave me alone. Please." I never in my life thought that I would say the word "please," but I honestly just needed time alone to think about the things that are currently happening.

"Alright man, we'll leave you alone, but just don't do anything stupid, alright? If you need anything, we're downstairs." Alec said as he and Isabelle quietly left the room. When they left, I couldn't help but remember Clary's expression after I told her that all this was her fault. She looked sad, or as Izzy and Alec put it, destroyed. But it can't be too bad right? I mean we've fought before. All I had to do was go apologize, she'll probably yell at me, saying that what I said was hurtful, then I'd do something to convince her to forgive me, and everything will be just as it was before. Yeah, everything will be fine. I'll just give her time, then check to see if she is still in Alicante, and if she's not, after all this with Valentine is sorted out, I'll head back to New York, and apologize.

Wait, what about Jocelyn? Clary basically came here to go to that warlock, Ragnor Fell, to get what she needed to cure mom. I can't forget about that either. Great, this is something else that I need to deal with. But this is for Clary. God, why does she have to be my sister? Okay, I can't think like this. Deal with what's happening right now and get what Clary needs to cure mom. In no time everything will be fine.
