The school day goes by uneventful. Clary, Izzy, Maia and Simon kept to themselves. Jon, Jordan and Magnus went to classes and sat together at lunch talking about try outs tomorrow and possibly getting new recruits. Alec and Jace both kept to themselves except when they saw Clary and only focused on her. She of course was oblivious all day. Raphael and Sebastian just watched her from a far as well. Clary was blissfully unaware although it wasn't hr fault. She always felt people staring at her because of her brother and family. They were wealthy and he was incredibly popular. She just ignored the stares and went about her day.
At the end of the day she went outside and found Jon at his parking spot waiting for her. She was still not happy with him but she wasn't angry anymore. It was Jon after all and no matter how much she hated it she loved him for always wanting to protect her. It was hard to stay mad considering she depended on him for transportation. Her 16 birthday was coming up by the end of the month and she already knew what she wanted, a brand new car so she wouldn't always be so dependent. She could wish all she wanted but she knew it would never happen. Her family could afford it but they couldn't afford Clary getting hurt. They saw her as a porcelain doll that could break from a 4 foot fall. Her dad was worse than Jonathan. She was the image of her mother only smaller. It made him feel more overprotective.
She felt the car slow down and she bolted before Jon could stop her and ran to her room. Before she could lock the door Jon pushed the door open.
"Clary can we please talk. I hate it when you're mad at me. Please talk to me. I'll do anything to get you happy at me again." Jon asked pleading his sister.
"I'm not mad anymore I'm just disappointed. I hate that you don't trust me. You jumped to a conclusion without hearing my side first and then you have been threatening guys behind my back. Do you know what that did to me? I felt ugly for so long thinking no one wanted me." Clary looked at Jon with a hurt expression. It made Jon feel worse and she knew it.
"I'm so sorry Clary but I can't help it the thought of some guy getting near you repulses me to the core. My entire life I have kept you safe and I guess I'm afraid of letting someone near you who can truly hurt you. What if the guy beats you and you're too scared to tell me and I treat him like a brother. I would kill him and hit myself for being blind." Jon said looking hiding his face from her.
"Jon you can't make these scenarios in your head that probably will never happen. Besides I took a self defense course at the Hamptons and that guy is now my P.E. teacher. So I'm good and if I need you I will tell you and dad. Please Jon just be ok with me dating. You can threaten the guy every time you see him if it makes you feel better. "Clary said smiling at her brother.
"Ok, as long as I can do that." Jon held his sister closely. "How is your P.E. teacher your old defense instructor?"
"I guess he just took a summer job and being a teacher and a coach is his full time job. Oh yeah he is also the track coach and I'm trying out this year." Clary said smiling at her brother.
"Really? That's great Clary I know you will do amazing. Since tryouts for soccer are longer you wait for me after at the field." Jon said to his baby sis.
"Ok. I get to watch the new recruits so it's a win win." Clary said smirking at her brother knowing full well that would piss him off.
"Clary don't push it." They both chuckle.

Jace P.O.V.
All day seemed like an endless sea of girls all over me today. I made out with three of them but nothing great. They were pretty and inexperienced but overall they helped pass the time. The only one that caught my eye was that red headed girl again. I watched her come into the cafeteria with a hot athletic looking girl but they got lost in the crowd. I saw her again in art, that class is so easy and so are most of the girls. Why the artsy girls are so easy ill never know. But she stood there across from me never looking in my direction drawing some stupid vase the teacher put in the middle and said to draw free form. I don't know what the hell she meant but I just drew the vase. It looked warped but she said it was ok. When the bell rang I tried to catch up to her but a girl from class took my hand and led me to the closet down the hall.
It was a nice surprise, I didn't have to do anything to get her she just took control. She pulled me to her and our bodies pressed against each other. She slid her hands up and down my back slightly scratching at the fabric. I put my hands on her waist and squeezed her lightly. When she moaned I took it as a sign and slid them down to her ass and squeezed her. She groaned in pleasure and she put her arms around my neck and jumped. I squeezed he ass and she wrapped her legs around my waist. I started to press us closer and started to grind against her. She loved it, our kissing became more passionate and our tongues entwined with one another. I want to take her shirt off when I felt my phone beep. It must be either Izzy or Alec wanting to know where I am. DAMN, things were just getting good.
"I have to go my siblings are waiting for me. We will finish this later." I kissed her again and walked out without hearing her response. That should ensure me making it clear she is just a distraction. I had a much bigger prize in mind.
The car ride was quiet, Alec was driving and concentrating on the road, Izzy was texting and I was thinking of ways to get that red heads attention. I noticed Alec looked a little mad but that was normal. Alec never smiled or showed much emotion which was fine. I went up to my room thinking of what to do. I finally settled on joining the varsity soccer team. I have seen those guys at lunch and they are smack dab in the middle and they have everyone's attention. Joining the team will make me more desirable and raise my status. She doesn't know what is coming her way.
O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O
Alecs P.O.V.
Today was an ok day. I was able to see her in class and my shy ass couldn't go up and talk to her. She is just so pretty and popular. Girls and guys are always around her and moving away from them to let them walk. I didn't know that yesterday, she looked so normal, and now I come to find out she is pretty much the IT girl. I heard other guys admiring her but they said that going near her would be impossible because of "him". Apparently her boyfriend is very overprotective. She is always with someone which of course makes it harder for me. If I want to be able and date her I have to be more popular. I could try out for the soccer team since those guys are the most popular in school. I see their leader walking with the team down the hall and all the girls just sigh with desire, the guys' just look at them with jealousy. The only problem is I have no idea how the hell to play. The only thing that I can think of that could be a close second is the track team. When I walked by the trophy case down the main hall I noticed the track team had almost as many trophies as the soccer team. If I'm accepted I can maybe get her attention.
Tomorrow I will try out and actually get on a team, I will change anything just to be near her again. I won't give up my black though, that stays.
