My Big Sister

CPOV

I basically ignore Jace all day, in other words I couldn't face him. I want everything Seb told me to be a lie but there's no reason for him to lie to me. I mean he's my boyfriend for Christ sakes and I love him. It's so confusing, I wish there was a camera there to catch what happened.

Jace didn't hang with us today at lunch; he didn't even come to lunch. Not that I'm complaining, it made it easier not to talk to him. Everyone kept telling me to go and talk to Jace and by everyone I mean Simon, Izzy and Alec but Seb persuaded me otherwise.

It was the end of the day and it looked like Jace skipped class today. So Mrs. Fairchild decided that we should start the project sooner. We got our partners name and you'll never guess who's my partner is. Jace. I get frustrated cause I couldn't start since the asshat decided not to show up. I take my art very serious and not even my awkward position with him right now will stop me.

I storm out of the class once the bell rings and stalk my way to the parking lot. I don't even care that I still need to go to my locker and meet Seb (probably will pay for that later). I too pissed to even care. I get there and see a flash of gold leaning against a nice, red Ferrari F12 Berlinetta. Damn, that's a hot car. I walk over and get his attention. "Jace we need to talk. Now."

He rubs the back of his neck nervously. "Now? Why not tomorrow, or next week, or never. Either works for me." All I do is glare at him and after a bit he gives up. "Fine what do you want to talk about?"

"First, Mrs. Fairchild switched project day to today and it's due the end of this week. Plus we're partners. Second, how dare you skip class and leave me to be stuck behind everyone else. Third, we need to talk about what happened this weekend." I realize I was holding my breath and try to catch it.

"How about we finish this talk later? Want to go to my house or yours?" I was about to scream that we need to talk about this now but I realize I need to get home and Jon's Probably worrying about me.

"Fine your place." I huff at in defeat.

"Ok see you there at 6," he gives me the address and gets in the car. I head back inside and see Jon and Seb waiting at my locker. "Sorry guys, I had to deal with something."

"You're lucky I drive you to school or you would have to walk home." Jon says a little agitated but still has a smile growing on his face.

"And I love you so much for that," I grab my things from my locker. "Now can we get going?"

Seb was coming to our house today to work on a project with Jon so we all went home together. "So what did you need to do that made you late?"

"I went to go talk to Jace." I hide my face knowing the Sebastian's glaring at me.

"I thought you were too scared to. Well I'm glad you talked to him. What did he say?"

"Well he really didn't say anything. We decided to meet tonight at his place at 6. Also we're working on a project together in art so..." Crap Sebastian's going to kill me. I don't even dare to look up.

"Really? Well ok just make sure you're home by 9." He doesn't seem to really care. I mean why would he, it's Jace.

"Yes mom." I try to lighten the mood and it somewhat works. I can tell that Seb's not happy even though he laughed.

I drive up into Jace's driveway and it's huge! I didn't know the Herondales were rich now!? Their house is like a manor. No it's more like a mansion or castle. It's magnificent. The structure and design. It looks like it been here for a long time but it's still in good care. It has a circle driveway with a fountain in the middle. Gates on the side that looks like it leads to the back yard. A staircase that leads to the almost like marble porch and it looks about 3 floors but it's long.

I get up the staircase and ring the doorbell. Except when they answer I get really confused. When the door opens a lady who almost looks like Izzy but older answers. "Um, I'm sorry I think I got the wrong house." Just as I'm about to walk away I hear Jace call my name. Huh? I turn and see Jace standing on the porch.

"Where are you going Clary? Come on in." I head back up the stairs and Jace takes me into what I think is the living room. "Clary this is Maryse and Robert." He gestures to the two adults. We say are hellos and head upstairs to Jace's room. To my surprise the room is spotless. I thought guys were supposed to have underwear and socks and stuff all over their rooms. I should've remembered Jace was a clean freak.

"So what do you want to do first?" I turn towards him and start thinking. I want to talk about this weekend but I want to start the project without the tension.

"The project. Do you remember what we have to do?" thinking he probably already forgot.

"Yeah, can you explain?"

I explain that we have to draw portrait of each other but added to things unique about it. Also that if we finish early we can hand it in tomorrow. Work on the projects and I already have thoughts running through my mind. I draw Jace with magnificent wings and a sword with the engraving "mortel épée". It means mortal sword in French, I don't know why but it just fits. It's as if he's a real life fallen angel that landed into our world. I wonder what he's drawing. I lift my head to see what Jace is doing but he's not there.

"It looks nice but my nose is all wrong." I jump about a foot away and have a mini heart attack. I look back and see Jace on the floor curled in a ball almost. Crap I did it again. See I have this habit when I get scared I either kick or punch. By the way Jace is and where his hands are covering I think I might have just punched his precious jewels. Yikes! That's gotta hurt.

"I am so sorry. Are you okay?" I know this sucks for him but I can't help but die laughing.

"Not funny Clare that really hurt like a bitch." I still can't control my laughing. After a bit I start to regain my breath. "Anyway like I was saying my nose is all wrong. It's a little smaller than that." I huff but do as he says because he's right. After I'm done I show him my master piece. "Better and may I say that I love how you think of me as a fallen angel." I can't help but blush a bit.

"Well can I see what you got so far?" he nods and grabs the sketch book to show me. I gasp at the beauty of this drawing. He's almost as good as me and my mom. My hair looks like it's on fire but not the one that burns. It's almost like a heavenly fire, calm and soft. He also drew me in a dress of water while coming out of a lake. It looks so beautiful. "It's beautiful Jace. I love it." I give him a hug. "I wonder what Charlie thinks of your drawings now? How is your sister anyway?" Charlie always made fun of him because she can draw way better than him. I laugh but stop when I feel him tense and pull away.

"Jace what's wrong?" his silence is almost those of the dead.

"Clary three's something important I need to tell you. Just don't freak ok."
