I am so bored right now... I bet I'm entertaining you... people on the other side of the planet!
So yeah. It's back! Already! Did I freak you out?
Simon's POV (1st person)
I had been chasing the man and Clary through the school. Eventually, Clary tried to climb the fence, but the man grabbed her and pulled her down. She yelled something that I couldn't hear, although I know it was full of hatred.
"Well then," The man had started saying. "What a rude thing to say to your husband!"
"WHAT?!" I couldn't help but ask while screaming at the top of my lungs. She looked over at me, and her face twisted into horror and fear.
"Oh god Simon. I was hoping you wouldn't find out." She said nervously.
"You're married?"
"Yes. It's a really long story, but yes."
"Um... Did you forget about me?" The man asked.
"Who are you anyway?" I asked the man.
"Jace Herondale. A name you probably haven't heard."
"No. I remember hearing that name before... I just can't place it..."
"What's your name?"
"Simon Lewis."
"Lewis? That's probably why."
"What? Why?"
"There was a police officer whose last name was Lewis that oversaw me."
"Great. You were in jail."
"I wish. Psych ward."
"And you're married to this guy?" I asked while looking at Clary.
"It was an arranged marriage!" She screamed.
"So your parents made you marry this sick, twisted demon?"
"HEY! Don't judge a book by its cover!" He yelled at me.
"My dad. He said it was the only way to save our family's proud relationship with the Herondales."
"To marry this psychotic sicko?"
"I never really liked my dad. And could you put me down now?" She directed the last part at Jace. He dropped her onto the ground. She got up brushing herself off.
"So this is why you didn't tell me about your past?"
"That and something else." She pulled back the long sleeve on her shirt. She had scratches, cuts, bruises, and scars starting from the wrist to the shoulder area. I wondered why she never wore t-shirts. I gave Jace an evil look.
"Did Jace do that?"
"Yes."
"Temporary insanity!" Jace yelled as a 'reason.'
"That doesn't let you abuse people!" I yelled at him with all of my pent-up rage.
"I technically didn't."
"These wounds didn't just show up on her arm!"
"It wasn't me. It was my insane self."
"And you're not insane now? You grabbed her off of the fence!"
"It's legal!"
"But not orthodox!"
"What is orthodox, making tea while she's running away?"
"Why not! It's a better way to treat h... your wife!"
"It was an arranged marriage! Great! Now I'm sounding like her."
"I have a name you know!" Clary yelled at him.
"Yes, Susan? Megan? Esmeralda?" He started asking.
"Clary! My name is Clary!"
"After a year it gets foggy." I was having enough of this. I tapped him on his shoulder to face me, and then I punched him in the face. A fight ensued.
Jace punched my stomach, I retaliated by sweeping my leg to knock over his. He fell to the ground, kicked my crotch, and sweeped his leg so that it was underneath mine. I fell to the ground swearing and elbowed him in the gut. He raised his arm to punch me again when a hand caught it. We looked up. It was principal Morgenstern.
time jump- Clary's POV (1st person)
I was standing by the fence when the fight started, so I quickly ran inside and found the principal's office, which wasn't that far from the door. I started explaining everything quickly, replacing certain words with others, and got him to follow me. By the time we got there, they were on the ground in a bare-knuckle brawl.
We followed the principal to his office, me only coming because I was Jace's wife (Or in principal Morgenstern's case, ex-girlfriend). We sat down in the 3 chairs, (from sitting at the desk) I was on the left chair, Simon was in the middle, and Jace was on the right. He looked at the boys in disappointment.
"Ok. Who wants to start explaining?" He asked.
"He punched me in the face." Jace quickly said.
"With good reason." Simon stated.
"Which was what?"
"Nothing really."
"I found out tha-" He broke off when he saw me dragging my finger across my throat.
"What secrets do you have, Clary?"
"Oh. She didn't tell you? Figures."
"What are you talking about?" Oh no. Simon's the worst liar ever.
"If I don't hear the truth soon, it's detention for all of you."
"She's my wife." He looked shocked.
"No. That's your imagination. You went to a psych ward." Again, Simon's a horrible liar.
"Is this true Clarissa?"
"Yes. But it was an arranged marriage, I didn't want it, my mom didn't want it, hell, 98% of the Herondales didn't want it." I quickly said.
"So wouldn't that make you Clarissa Herondale?" He asked.
"By court of law? Yes."
"Well, Herondales, I still don't understand why Simon threw the first punch. He's one of the calmest people I've ever met."
"It might have something to do with this." I said while rolling up my sleeve so that he could see the scars. He gasped.
"Ok then. There will be no punishments for Simon, but sadly I can't punish Jace for this. So, you're all free to go."
Great. Jace goes away unpunished. Review fairly and PM me with ideas.
