Chapter 7
A/N: Sorry for taking so long time to update. My new school gave me tons of new homework´s and assessments. THIS CHAPTER MAY MAINTAIN SOME SPOILERS FOR THOSE WHO HASN´T READ THE MORTAL INSTRUMENTS SERIES. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. Anyway here is the chapter.
(Clary P.O.V.)
Saturday
I wake up because of my stupid iPhone rings 8 am. Who is awake on a Saturday morning 8 AM. I look at the caller id and see that John is the one calling me this early hour.
"Hello this is Angel" I say in a sleepy voice.
"Hello Angel, I´m ringing because you have an interview tomorrow at 8 am" John says.
"Which?" I ask tired.
"It´s Good Morning America"
"Okay, am I a special guest or something?"
"Yes, they will ask you about your new album. So be prepared and you will sing one of your new songs to get more publicity, understood?"
"Yes and I will sing "Undercover" " I say.
"Okay, your team will be there so just show up around 6 am and the transport comes around 7 pm tonight" adds John.
"Okay"
"Have a good day Angel"
"You too" and all I hear is that John ends the call.
Yay, go up on a Sunday 5 am (hear the sarcasm). Okay, I´m up time to do some breakfast. I walk down to the kitchen. I take out the things I need to do American pancakes. I LOVE pancakes, they are fabulous and AMAZING. I´m totally obsessed with pancakes.
An hour later I was done eating American pancakes and the dishes afterwards. I showered and brushed my hair. I decided to wear a gold T-shirt and a pair of black jeans shorts. I also wear a pair of black sneakers with gold details.
I wonder if Jessica is awake yet. I think I should call her about the interview. Good idea. I tap in Jessica´s number on my phone and press call.
"Hello Clary, what do you want?" Jessica asks curious.
"I have an interview tomorrow on Good Morning America. What do you think?"
"That´s awesome"
"Except the part where I have to wake up 5 am in the morning"
"Oh, now I know why you are so disappointed" Jessica sighs.
"Can you come with me to the show, please" I plead.
"Just because you asked nice"
"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" I exclaim.
"See you tonight then"
"The transport comes 7 pm and it will take us to the hotel we will be staying at." I say.
"Okay, see ya"
"See ya" I say and end the call.
What should I do now? I wonder. Suddenly I got an idea. I should do homemade bath salt. (A/N: I believe it is called that, but I don´t know)
I get all the ingredients from the kitchen and the ingredients from the art room. I mix the olive oil with the salt and add some blue soap dye to the mix. Finally I put in the scent of lemons into the mix and mix all the ingredients together.
After that I pour it into a bottle and but a ribbon on it. Afterwards I go and get my spa bowl. I pour warm water into the bowl and when pour some of the bath salt into the warm water.
I take the bowl into the living room where I had light some candles and put on some relaxing music. I put down the bowl on the floor on a towel. I put my feet´s into the water and start to relax.
I sit there about 45 minutes. It´s so relaxing and I feel so free and calm. This was one of my better ideas in my life. Good I miss Isabelle, Simon, Magnus and even Alec. Even if Max is dead, god I miss him. Think of all the fun you had together Clary, not the bad things with Jace.
A while later I feel calm and relaxed again. I wonder what they are doing now. It would feel so good to know that they are okay. I suddenly see an image of a rune pass by my mind. I take out my Stele draw the new rune without thinking. I think show me Isabelle and I see a room with black colours and some red details.
A few seconds later Isabelle walks into the dark room. Behind Izzy comes Simon and he is covered with runes. When did he become a shadowhunter?.
"I miss her so much Simon, it has been over five years since we last saw her" Isabelle says to Simon.
"I know it hurts Izzy, it hurts every day" Simon says with a heart breaking countenance.
"The worst thing is that we don´t know if she is dead or alive"
"Don´t say anything like that Izzy, I would know if she was dead"
"Sorry, but it was in December she disappeared 5 soon to be 6 years ago"
"Jace does not even talk the hole December month. I don´t know what happened probably between them that dreadful day and it´s killing me"
Before Simon even can answer Izzy, I had already cut the rune of. I couldn´t watch it anymore, it tore my heart to pieces. I wonder if they will come to my concert in New York. I think it´s time to face my demons. I will meet them on my concert even if it´s the last thing I´ll ever do.
I try to call Jessica 3 times before she answers.
"Jessica, I need you to fix some things" I say excited.
"What?"
"Come to me and I´ll tell you"
"Okay, see you soon"
"See ya"
A few minutes later a whirlwind of sparkles appears in my living room.
"Hello Jessica"
"Clary, what do you need help with?"
"Well, I want to meet them on my concert in New York and I need your help"
"Okay, let´s see I can make a poster fly into the institute´s door and later a magazine comes to the front door and the magazine is about you and your music. I don´t think they will recognise you, but you can catch theirs attention. On the show I can set up so they will be in the V.I.P. part an afterwards they will meet you. Those that sound nice?"
"It´s the perfect plan, thank you!"
"Okay, what should we do now?"
"I don´t know, what would you like to do?"
"I know, we could watch a movie"
"Which one?"
"Twilight" Jessica exclaims.
"No, we have already seen it like 100 times" I say.
"Can we please see The Hunger Games Mockingjay Part 1"
"I love that movie, let´s see it"
We watch the movie and eat popcorn meanwhile the movie plays. In the end of the movie all the popcorns are eaten up and all the soda is all drunken up.
Jessica is my best friend. She knows exactly how I want things to be in my house. No trace of boys. I don´t hate boys, I just….
Don´t tolerate them anymore after him.
I see Jessica fell asleep again under the movie. She always does that.
Anyway I go and clean up the mess we made in the living room. When I´m done I find myself walking towards the music room. In the music room I feel truly safe. I can just let all my feelings turn into music. I walk towards the piano and sit down. First I just play some random melodies that come into my mind.
A few minutes later I begin to sing a song that I wrote about one month after the accident. I call it "Behind these hazel eyes". Nobody had ever heard me sung it.
"Seems like just yesterday
You were a part of me
I used to stand so tall
I used to be so strong
Your arms around me tight
Everything, it felt so right
Unbreakable, like nothin' could go wrong
Now I can't breathe
No, I can't sleep
I'm barely hanging on"
"Here I am, once again
I'm torn into pieces
Can't deny it, can't pretend
Just thought you were the one
Broken up, deep inside
But you won't get to see the tears I cry
Behind these hazel eyes"
"I told you everything
Opened up and let you in
You made me feel alright
For once in my life
Now all that's left of me
Is what I pretend to be
So together, but so broken up inside
'Cause I can't breathe
No, I can't sleep
I'm barely hangin' on"
"Here I am, once again
I'm torn into pieces
Can't deny it, can't pretend
Just thought you were the one
Broken up, deep inside
But you won't get to see the tears I cry
Behind these hazel eyes
Swallow me then spit me out"
"For hating you, I blame myself
Seeing you it kills me now
No, I don't cry on the outside
Anymore...
Anymore..."
"Here I am, once again
I'm torn into pieces
Can't deny it, can't pretend
Just thought you were the one
Broken up, deep inside
But you won't get to see the tears I cry
Behind these hazel eyes"
"Here I am, once again
I'm torn into pieces
Can't deny it, can't pretend
Just thought you were the one
Broken up, deep inside
But you won't get to see the tears I cry
Behind these hazel eyes"
I end the last sentence I suddenly hear someone walk up towards me. "Who´s there?" I ask.
"It just me" Jessica says.
"Oh"
"That song was beautiful and so full of emotions. What is it called?" Jessica asks curious.
"Mmmmm it´s called "Behind these hazel eyes"" I mumble.
"What did you say?" Jessica asks.
"It´s called "Behind these hazel eyes"" I say louder.
"Why haven´t you sing before?" Jessica asks out of curious.
"It´s a personal song"
"Oh, okay"
"Well, this is a bit awkward."
"The song was beautiful Clary, I just wish you could share it with me or someone."
"It just, sometimes it is hard to talk about him so I just write my thoughts down and add a melody."
"We must go now, the driver is here." Jessica says and do some magic to pack our things.
"Let´s go" She says and drags me out of the door.
"I want my leather jacket." I say stubbornly.
"Go and get it then, we can´t be late."
I run in get my leather jacket and lock the door. I jump into the limo and wait for it to drive off.
The drive takes about 4 hours to the hotel. We arrive to the hotel 11pm and I´m a literally a walking zombie. I ask Jessica to check in on the hotel.
A few minutes later Jessica walks towards me.
"Come here Angel time to go to bed."
I grunt as Jessica starts to lead me towards our room. We take the glass hiss up to the 12:th floor. She lead me to the master king bed with red covers.
I lie down in the bed and fall in a deep sleep.
Sunday
"Please, please don´t kill her." I plead.
"Young angel, I can´t possible let her live. She´s a threat for us demons." The demon says.
"I´ll haunt you down then kill you slowly so you never return to the earth." I threat the demon.
"No, you will die first in a row of many if you don´t give me her." the demon says slyly.
"Never!"
It was just a nightmare Clary, just a nightmare I think. It was not real.
I look at my phone and see the clock is 4.30 am. What shall I do in half an hour?
I decide to take a shower. I´m not the person who takes like hours to shower for me it only takes like a few minutes.
After a while I had dried my hair and apply some mascara. I change into my ripped jeans and a white blouse. I put on my emerald earrings that my mom gave me about a year ago. I love them they are so gorgeous. Anyway I should probably wake Jessica up, she is a morning person.
It takes about four tries to wake her up and all I can say she is not happy.
"Why are you waking me up in this early hours Clary? Jessica groans.
"Because you have 30 minutes to get ready before we have to leave"
"Why didn´t you wake me earlier?" Jessica almost screams.
"Because you would turn me into a dog."
"Well that´s probably true, but I would turn you back."
"Anyway you have to get ready."
"Of course." Jessica says and walks away to change clothes.
Meanwhile I call our driver to come and get us around 5.30 am. Jessica walks out a while after the call was done.
"What time is it?" she asks.
"The clock is 5.24 am"
"Should we get some quick breakfast?"
"Definitely" I say and start to rush towards the dining hall.
I take with me some different muffins, eggs and bacon, juice, pancakes, toast and pitch black coffee for me.
"Here you go" I say to Jessica and give her the food that is hers.
"Thank you"
We walk to our drive and jump in. The drive takes about 30 minutes to get there and meanwhile Jessica and I eat our breakfast.
That´s the end for now, hope you like the chapter. I am so sorry for not updating in such a long time. My school gave me tons of homework´s and I have to travel to school about 1 hour every day so I´m very tired. I´m gonna try to update every second week, but don´t except to much. This chapter is extra long because well it a kind of present to you guys because I haven´t updated in a while. I love you guys for following, favourite and review my chapters. You make my day. Watching Pitch Perfect, anybody else who wants to see Pitch Perfect 2?
Behind these hazel eyes belongs to Kelly Clarkson (hope I spelled her name right)

Quote of today:
Sometimes being a friend means mastering the art of timing. There is a time for silence. A time to let go and allow people to hurl themselves into their own destiny. And a time to prepare to pick up the pieces when it's all over.
