(Clary POV)
It has been one week since the Jace incident. Nobody has seen him since then but I don't think they care anymore. I still can't help but think about what Izzy said to me about Alec and I looking cute together. The thing that stands out the most is about what she said is about how he looks at me a certain way. Does he? I look back at my sketch that I was working on before Izzy asked me to be her parabatai. I gasp when I see it ,or who rather, I was sketching clearly. I was sketching Alec. I groan and put my head in between my knees.
"What is wrong with me?" I ask out loud.

"Did you say something Clary?" I turn around and there is Alec. Sitting right behind me.
"I...um...nothing." I stutter out. I curse myself when I feel the blush rising on my cheeks. He gives me a look that says We both know that isn't true. I glare at him half-heartedly and turn back to look at the sketch. I sigh. This will be a very long day.

(Izzy POV)
With each passing day, the tension becomes even more obvious. If those two are too stupid to notice it then I'll have to step in. I have the perfect idea! Pandemonium! No, that won't work. Thats where Jace and Clary met. Too many bad memories. I got it: Invite Simon and Maia and Bat and Magnus for a game of truth or dare! Clary will love that. If I know my brother (which I do) then he'll tag along because Clary is there. Yay! I can finally get those two to admit their feelings. This will be fun! I call them and tell them the plan to get Clary and Alec to admit they like each other. They all think it's a great idea and they'll be here at 8:00. Time to work my magic!
(Alec POV)
I hear Izzy on the phone with someone. I lean closer to hear her conversation. Yeah, yeah I know I shouldn't be doing it but I'm her big brother. My heart skips a beat when I hear her say something about Clary and I. What about Clary and I?
She hangs up the phone and starts walking towards where I am. I jump up and brush myself off before she can see me.
"Hey Iz, have you seen Clary anywhere?" I attempt to pretend I didn't hear her conversation. Thankfully, I convinced her I just got there.
"I haven't seen her in an hour or so, why?" She asks.
"Just wondering." I reply quickly and turn and walk the other direction.
"Okay…" she says as I am walking away.
I go to my room and close the door. I slide down until I'm sitting on the ground with my back against the door, my mind reeling about what Izzy said. Clary and I? What about Clary and I?
I'm so happy that I was able to do this! I will need time to write the next chapter though, so it will be a week or so until i update again
I love suggestions for the plot so PM with anything you would like to see
Thank you again for the amazing reviews!
