Ni Hao! How are you? So a lot of you want more Clace but ya know what? They haven't even met yet… So yeah. I'm still debating whether I'm gonna make Alec gay here or something… I'm thinking of putting a quote in the A/N of every chapter so here it goes. Let's go with a classic.
"Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light."
Where does it come from? You tell me! Anyways, let's get started.
Disclaimer:
Me: *calls Cassie Clare*
C.C: Hello?
Me: . .INSTRUMENTS.
C.C: How did you get this number? Who is this? And no.
Me: I will find you, and I will kill you.
After homework, Simon and I decide to go to the park. Out of the door, I spot a little boy no more than 10 years old next door. He's struggling with a big cardboard box.
"We should help him." Simon says.
Walking to the boy, he lifts his head and I see his cute little blue eyes. As we reach him, he smiles showing straight pearly whites.
"Are you my new neighbors?" He asks.
"Yep." Simon and I say at the same time. Its freaky how we're usually pretty synchronised with each other.
"You're pretty. Are you two in love?" He asks innocently.
"No." We say once again, in synch.
He just giggles and puts the box on the ground. It's full of trophies and medals.
"Can you help me? This is like carrying an elephant." I take the box as he leads us to the house.
Inside, it looks pretty much the same as mine but it looks so… empty.
"Max? Is that you?" A voice shouts from somewhere in the house.
"Yeah ma. I have two friends with me! One of them is really pretty and the other one looks funny." He shouts back.
Simon looks at me with a face asking 'I look funny?'
I just shrug.
Coming out of what seems to look like a kitchen is a lady who's in about her forties. When she sees us, her eyebrows shoot up in surprise.
"Hello. Nice to meet you. I'm Maryse Lightwood. You must be the Frays next door."
"Hi. I'm Clary and this is Simon. Do you need any help with unpacking?" I ask nervously.
"Actually, yes. You can help me with Isabelle's room. She's about your age. It's on the second floor, second door to you right." She says as she nods to the stairs.
We nod and make our way upstairs.
The room is painted dark purple with some little gold detailing. It's pretty big and already has a master bed with some furniture set up. The furniture is all black.
Definitely a girl's room.
Taking one of the boxes, I start unpacking. It's filled with books. They're all pretty good. Catcher in the rye, The Hunger Games, Harry Potter, Walden, a lot of Stephen King. I put them by color in the bookshelf and take another box. Suddenly, a guy comes barging into the room.
"Izzy!" He shouts. "Who are you? Where is Izzy?"
"I'm Clary." I say trying to ignore that fact that his beautiful blue eyes are staring into my green ones.
"And I'm Simon." He says as he puts out a hand for him to shake.
Still looking annoyed, he presents himself.
"I'm Alec. Where's Isabelle? I need to talk to her."
We both shrug as he storms out.
After unpacking except for the clothes, we go downstairs to bump into someone.
"Ow! Look where y-" A female voice yelps as she looks at us.
She has straight raven black hair and is very tall.
"Who are you?" She asks.
"They're your new neighbors. That's Clary and this is Simon. Try not to chop their heads off. This," she says to us, "is Isabelle."
"Hey. Mom? Can you help me unpack my room?"
"Actually, we did it for you." Says Simon for the first time after closing his mouth probably because he was trying to catch flies.
"Thanks." She says as she runs up the stairs.
This is family is starting to scare me.
*Horn blares* That's it! Hoped you liked it! Gotta go. I'm hungry.
Bye!
