I'm so sorry for the extra long wait but I've been busy all summer and I didn't really know how to end this story so this is just what I came up with and i'm sorry that it's so short but I promise i'll be writing more stories from now on

Close Call: Chapter 3

I watched in wonder as Jocelyn and Luke's faces turned at first from confusion to dawning realization. Magnus was explaining to them everything that had happened last night, I wished that he would get a clue and play down everything, but he didn't. He explained every last detail exactly how it happened. I knew the others would have also preferred that I had told the truth but I just couldn't bring myself to do it knowing the risks involved not being a shadowhunter anymore.

Jace had moved to sit beside me, taking my hand in his. I was glad for the extra comfort because I don't know how Jocelyn will react to all this news. As Magnus was concluding his painfully long story Jocelyn came to sit by me and Jace got up because he knew that he wasn't very well liked by my mom. "Clary," she began. I braced myself for what was to come.

"I'm not mad at you, after all it couldn't have been your fault." she began. I slowly nodded, not knowing what was next. "I will still continue to let you train but I want you to be more careful and be armed with something small at least, at all times. Are we in agreement?" I nodded joyfully.

We all looked at each other in silent joy as Luke and Jocelyn said goodnight and promised to come back and visit Clary first thing in the morning. "I guess everything worked out then." said Jace. "I always knew it would," said Isabelle.
