Ever since Simon had become a Shadowhunter he'd began to fill out nicely. His hair was cut the slightest bit shorter, his muscles were more built and firm, and all in all he looked more healthy. Except even though Isabelle and Clary had noticed, Isabelle had noticed others noticing too. She had never been the jealous type, and she never wore her heart in her sleeve. Though this one little nerd who lived on mundane video games and his nose in a comic book, had found a way into her heart. Even if she would never admit it.

Isabelle was currently sat in the Institute with Clary, who was drawing on the window seat. While she herself was picking aimlessly at couch cushions. Her mind was wandering away with itself, and she never was the paranoid type. Not until Simon.

Who at the present time was on a boys night out with Jace, Alec and Magnus. They were celebrating Alec-her brother-getting married to Magnus, but we girls weren't invited, because apparently-according to mundane traditions-it was only for men.

"Iz, stop panicking. You have nothing to worry about, I should be the one worrying. Jace has a track record of women." Isabelle laughed at Clary's comment, who was laughing along with her. Jace did have a past with the ladies, but Simon-to her-was hotter than Jace.

"I'm not panicking, but he's your best friend and I know you don't see him the same. But you have to admit, the boy has filled out and he's not the scrawny little nerd anymore. He's well.. He's hot and I won't be the only one to-"

The ringing of her mobile cut her off mid-sentence, picking it up her brow furrowed at the caller I.D. It was Simon. She picked up, to hearing loud music in the background and Simon sounding slightly tipsy.

"Hiiiii Isabelle! What are you doing?" Isabelle took the phone away from her ear, and put it on loudspeaker, gesturing for Clary to listen too.

"Hi Simon. Clary and I are just at home, what are you doing?" Simon giggled-actually giggled-down the receiver.

"I've been dancing with Jace, but he disappeared dancing with Alec and Magnus. Now there's some girl-"

Isabelle immediately saw red, and picked up the phone taking it off loudspeaker. She had no right to be losing her temper, Simon wasn't even her boyfriend, but she felt protective of him.

"What girl?! What's going on?!"

Simon's voice drifted off quickly, along with whatever he was saying, since it sounded like his phone was being taken from him.

The last thing she heard from the boy she was secretly falling head over heels for was,"Iz, I just really need to have you here right now."

That was all it took for Isabelle to pocket her phone, grab Clary by the arm and drag her out the door. If that girl had done anything to Simon, she would raise hell.

I appreciate any and all feedback! :)
