Clary

Moving schools all of the time did have its benefits. I never go too attached to anyone enough to miss them, I could start a fresh image and no one wanted anything to do with you. But it did have one disadvantage: egotistical, arrogant dick heads that think they can take advantage of the new girls.

And here was one right now.

Standing in front of me was a tall boy, his gold hair carefully set around his head, wearing black Levis and black Allsaints leather jacket over a thin white shirt. A look of desire in his golden eyes. "I know a really good storeroom that no one ever uses anymore," He said. "How about I meet you there at lunch? Soundproof walls."

I gaped at him, discussed, not saying anything.

"Is my brother bothering you?" Someone asked. I looked over my shoulder to see a tall girl with long black hair and dark eyes looking at me and her brother. "Jace, at least let her settle in before you start hitting on her." She said almost as if scolding him.

The boy – Jace – raised his left eyebrow at me. "Am I bothering you?"

I closed my mouth and regained myself. "Yes, you are." I say simply.

The other girl smiled at Jace proving she was right and Jace started to defend himself.

"I was just trying to help her make friends" He said to his sister. He then glanced at me "You don't want to go making friends with the wrong sort." Quoting Harry Potter.

"I think I can tell the wrong sort for myself, thanks." I quote back smirking.

"You had that coming." The girl said. "I'm Izzy, this is my man-whore brother Jace."

"Clary." I say smiling at the girl.

"Nice talking to you Clary, I'll see you at lunch." Izzy said taking hold of her brother's jacket sleeve and pulling him away, but not before he could look back at me and wink.

.o.O.o.

Registration ended and I had been handed my time table. I stood next to the wall studying the sheet to see what my first lesson was – social studies, room 43. I checked the map on the back, set my shoulders straight and headed off to class, hoping to God I wouldn't make a fool of myself like I did at my last school. Just the thought makes me shiver.

The memory quickly leaves when I come up to room 43 in the hall. Everyone was already inside and I open the door. Everyone stares at me as I close the door behind me back at I stare back at them.

I walk silently over to the teacher's desk and he looks up from his desk at me. "Yes?" He asks me causing the class to laugh.

"I'm Clary Morgenstern. The new girl." I say trying to ignore the head rising in my cheeks.

"Ah yes, Miss Morgenstern. Would you like to take a seat next to Mr Lightwood." He said pointing to an empty desk next to a boy with black hair and startling blue eyes. I walked over and sat at the desk putting my bag under it. The boy leans across to my desk and smiles.

"Hey, I'm Alec." He said putting his hand out for me to shake.

"Clary." I say taking his hand. "Are you my any chance Izzy and Jace's brother?" I ask.

Alec nods leaning back in his seat. "Yeah, so you have met my fellow siblings?"

"You could say that." I said thinking about Jace's arrogance.

The rest of first and second period flew by and before I knew it it was lunch. I manoeuvred my way through the crowded hall way and to my locker that I just got given the key for and shove my coat in it. Once it was locked again I followed the crowd to the canteen and stood near the door scanning the tables for Izzy. I saw her and she waved me over, I didn't want to make friends with this girl, it would just make it harder to leave again, but I was told to blend in so I had no choice in the matter.

I reluctantly weaved in between tables until I reached Izzy's and sat down in a seat opposite her. We were soon joined by Alec and another glittery boy who gave Izzy a questioning look. "Magnus, this is Clary. Clary, Magnus." Izzy said as Magnus and Alec sat down.

Magnus beamed at me. "Nice to meet you."

I smiled at him taking in his appearance. Leather jacket with silver studs up the arm, jeans with holes in the knees, eyeliner and glitter.

"So, where's Jace?" Magnus asked taking a bit out of an apple that suddenly appeared in his hand. I must have made some sort of noise because three pairs of eyes turned on me. "I trust from that unearthly sound that you have met Jace already?" Magnus asked grinning.

I was about to answer when the man himself walked up the table and threw himself down in the seat adjacent to mine. "Who has met me already?" He asked looking around the table, his eyes lingering on me for a split second longer.

"Clary." Alec said nodding in my direction.

Jace turned his full attention on me. "Ahh, yes. You rudely turned down my offer this morning, didn't you?" He said.

I raised my eyebrows at him and took a drink of my smoothie that I pulled out of my bag before answering him. "You wish you got rejected by me."

Izzy and Magnus burst out laughing and Alec smiled whilst Jace raised an eyebrow. I took another drink of my smoothie while Izzy and Magnus calmed down again. "So," Izzy said when she regained herself. "Clary, lets' see your time table." She said sticking her hand out.

I placed my time table in her hand and she studied it. "We have biology, gym, history and English together. You have maths with Magnus. Social studies with Alec, but you already know that. And finally design tech with Jace." She handed me back the piece of paper and I stuck it back in my bag. "We have bio after lunch so I will show you the way."

I nodded and sat back watching the four friends laugh and chat among each other, thinking of how I couldn't get attached to them, seeing as I would probably be leaving in a couple of months. Sometimes it was hard not to get attached to anyone, and moving away from them was a hard and painful experience I never wanted to encounter again. The last time that happened was when we first started moving and I had to leave my best friend Simon Lewis behind in California. Now I was in New York.

I kept in touch with Simon after I moved but after a while time tore us apart, like it does with every childhood friend, and left me stranded, alone with my mother and no friends.

"Clary!" I snapped back and look at Izzy who had an impatient look on her face.

"Sorry, what?" I asked clearing my head of all unimportant thoughts.

Izzy smiled. "We were just wondering how you like it here so far."

I sighed and looked at them all then back at Izzy. "It's just like any other school I have been to. Nothing special."

"Oh." Izzy said disappointment in her voice.

"And how many schools have you been to?" Jace asked leaning forward.

I looked at him in the eye. "More than you."

"How many?" Jace asked not backing down.

I kept silent for a moment then said, "In total, 8."

Izzy's eyes widened. "Eight? Why?"

I was starting to get fed up of all these questions so I gave them the straightest possible answer: "My mum." And I guessed from the tone of my voice they decided to leave it there.

If I get more than 5 reviews saying they want more I will try and get it out as soon as possible. So if you do like this so far, don't be afraid to review x
