HEY I DONT OWN THE MORTAL INSTRUMENT... PLEASE READ AND REVIEW THANKS.


CLARY POV

I went to talk to Jon about going out to eat with the Lightwoods.

"Hey Jon" I said entering her room

"Red, I could have been naked you know. Knock next time" he told me walking out of his bathroom

"Please if there is something there I haven't seen before I'll let you know" I said sitting on his bed

"That was just wrong, what do you want?" he asked me

"Well I just talked to Jace and we are going out to eat tonight. All of us together" I said so he wouldn't get the wrong idea

"Oh sorry about that" he said

"Sorry about what?" I asked

"Well you like him" he told me

"Me? Like him? Dude are you serious? I mean come on the kid is hot but nothing more than that" I said

"That's not what it looks like when you look at him and believer buttercup I'm not the only one that noticed, Mike and Seb have noticed to" he said

"Well you guys are seeing things because there is nothing there, like I said he's hot nothing more. You know me, no emotional attachment of any kind." I said getting up

"Alright so what time we going to eat?" he asked

"7pm" I told him

"Fine I'll tell the guys" he told me

"Good" I said and walked out

I went to my room; there was still some time before I had to get ready to go to dinner so I called my mom

"Hey Clary I can't talk right now but is everything ok?" she said once she answered

"Yeah mom everything is fine but why aren't you here yet?" I asked

"About that let your brother know I won't be going over there. The Clave wants me to stay here while the investigation is going. So you guys are going to be there 3 months and if not longer I'll let you know" she said

"3 months? Mom really?" I said but it came out like a question

"Sorry baby I have to go, Love you and take care of each other" she said and hung up

"Love you too" I said to a dead end

"Great, Ahhh! Let me get ready" I said to my self

I went to shower before going to get my clothes I already knew what I was going to wear. I put on high waited black shorts with a gold belt, a white chiffon shirt (I left the last few buttons undone so that I could tie it into a bow and make it look shorter), short black high heel boots, my hair into a high pony tail, some light make up and gold accessories. I knew I was over dressed but I looked hot and that is what mattered.

"Clary let's go!" Seb yelled while passing by my room

"Coming!" I yelled. I walked past the weapons room on my way to the door. I got a few things and then met up with the guys.

"Finally!" Jon said

"Nice shirts boys" I said looking at them; they were wearing black jeans and dressy button down shirts.

"The Lightwoods are waiting outside" Mike said

"Then let's go" I said

JACE POV

"How long are they going to take?" Alek asked getting annoyed

"Come on your use to waiting for Isabelle" I said smiling

"Yeah but she's done already and I'm hungry" he said

"Sorry my sister knows how to make people wait" Jon said while stepping out, right behind him was Mike and Sebastian. Where was Clary? I thought right there I saw her, she looked beautiful.

"Wow" I said really low and then looked around to make sure no one heard me but Isabelle was smiling at me.

"Sorry to keep you waiting" Clary said

"Not a problem let's head out" I said walking in front of her acting as if nothing was effecting me but just knowing that she was behind me and looking like an angel made me want to turn around and kiss her with everything in me. Isabelle was walking next to me and she just looked at me smiling.

"What?" I asked

"Nothing, we can talk about it later" she said walking ahead of me and entering Taki's. We took our seats and the waitress took out drink order.

"Jace!" someone yelled, I turned to find Aline. She was an old friend of the family.

"Be right back" I said, through the corner of my eye I saw Clary following me with her eyes.

"Hey" I said, she smiled and gave me a hug

"How are you?" Aline asked

"Good out with some friends" I said

"I see who are the good looking guys?" she asked

"Well you know me" I said

"Jace, I was talking about those" she said pointing to the table

"Oh that's Jon, Mike and Sebastian. They are from the institute in Los Angeles, they are going to be staying with out for a while" I told her

"Oh the Fairchild but isn't there two" she said

"Yeah Jon and his sister Clary" I said

"Wow, I have heard a lot about them but never thought I would actually meet them. They are the best and youngest Shadowhunters the Clave has seen, they have like these special abilities or something like that. Introduce me, please" she said

"Ok, let's go" I said walking to the table

"Hey guys this is Aline. Aline this is Jon, Clary, Mike and Sebastian. You already know Isabelle and Alek" I said

"Hi nice to meet you" she said

"Hi" Jon said with a smile

"Jace, I hope to see you again. It's been like forever since the last time we hung out and I miss you" she said winking at me.

"See you soon Aline" I said and sat down next to Isabellle, I looked over to Clary and I thought I saw for a moment jealousy in her eyes but it was gone too fast for me to really pin point what it is.

CLARY POV

While Jace was gone talking to that girl, Isabelle and Alek asked us a few questions about our life in Los Angeles. When I saw Jace come back with that girl, I wanted to die. Who the hell did she think she was? Flirting all over my Jace? What Clary back up, your Jace? He's not yours. Ok this guys is going to drive me up a wall, I'm talking to myself. She said bye to Jace and gave him a wink, that's it I'm going to rip her to pieces. No you need to control yourself, this is just one guy. I looked over at Jace and something in me clicked, I have feelings for him. Strong feelings and if I don't keep myself in check and away from him something might happened. I have never let anyone close to me or let my walls down; I'm not going to start now with some Shadowhunter player boy. The whole time Jon was looking at me, I just hope that he didn't notice my momentary change because I will not hear the end of it.

"Clary you're done?" Mike asked

"Yeah, yeah I am" I said

"Good we are going to pay" he said

"Ok, how much do I have to give?" I asked

"Nothing it was my treat" Jace said

"Thank but we don't mind paying" Jon said

"It's ok, I invited" Jace said handing the waitress the check back

"Keep the change" he told her, she nodded and walked away

"Let's get going" Isabelle said

We made our way back to the institute in silence, hardly anyone said anything. Jon was walking next to me and I could tell that he wanted to talk about something; I just hope that it has nothing to do with Jace. I made my choice and I am going to keep my distance from him so that I can figure out first what this feeling is.

"Hey Clary can I talk to you for a moment?" Jon asked, I looked up at him and noticed we were at the institute already.

"Sure" I said, we walked to the side of the institute. There was a table a few feet away from the window in the kitchen.

"So brother of mine what do you want to talk about?" I asked him once we sat down

"Clary I saw what happened at Taki's" he said, I looked at him with wide eyes but changed my face fast before he noticed. He was looking at the floor.

"I don't know what you are talking about" I said, he looked up at me and smiled

"Clary when Jace came over with Aline, if there was a color to describe what you looked like I would have to pick green" he said

"I was not" I told him

"Clary we had this conversation before" he said

"And I told you before you are crazy I don't feel anything for Jace" I said

"That's not what it looked like tonight, you like him and not just 'hey your cute' like it's a 'I really really like you'" he said

"You're talking crazy" I said looking to the side

"Clary let me tell you something. I know that you like him a lot and you just don't want to admit to anyone or yourself. But I hope you can get over that soon because if you leave this feel bottled up it might hurt more than if you ride with it" he said

"Jon even if I felt anything for him, he's a player" I said

"Clary you might get hurt and believe me I don't want that for you but it's better to get hurt and learn that to live wondering 'What if'. He might be a player but maybe you're the girl he's been waiting for to help him change. I have seen how he looks at you and it isn't an 'I want that ass tonight, so I can dump tomorrow' no he looks at you with true interest. I think you should give him a chance, if it doesn't work then for at least you tried. But don't take yourself out of the game before you even got the chance to play" he told him

"But Jon" he cut me off

"I know you're scared for what happened between mom and dad but Clary that won't happen to you trust me. I promise you here that I will be there through the good and the bad no matter what" he said

"Promise?" I asked

"Yeah, give Jace a shot. You never know he might be the one" he told me smiling

"Sure at the age of 16 I'm going to find the one" I told him laughing

"You never know" he said getting up

"Let's get to bed" I said

"Night Clary sweet dreams and think about what I said" he told him

"Night Jon, I will" I said while heading up to my room. Tonight was going to be a long night and I had a lot to think about. Should I give this feeling that I have for Jace a chance?
