Chapter four: Clary

I awoke the next morning alone, the beta was gone, which is good, because if Axel saw him in here he'd think we'd done it, when I don't see Jackson that way at all.

My bedroom door was slammed open and Kelsey came running in and straight into my wardrobe not giving me much time to ask or speak she rushed me to get dressed and then we were out the door and at school.

"Ok what's going on?" I asked, she grinned, "There's an assembly this morning" she said, I arched a brow and looked to the other three in the room, Kayden just rolled his eyes at her.

"Kelsey convinced the principal to allow us to perform at the assembly" he explained, my eyes widened, Kelsey nodded her head enthusiastically.

"Do I get a say?"

"Nope" she replied grinning, "Maybe my brother will fall in love with you when he hears your voice"

"We're performing Lithium, I doubt that will happen" one of the guys said, "I'm Tom by the way and this is James, he's a hunter" I nodded, keeping my distance, I have enough experience with hunter weapons.

"So I have to sing?" I asked, they nodded,

"And play the piano parts since we don't know how to perform those" I sighed, and nodded, I didn't have much of a choice.

Half an hour later we were on the stage in the auditorium and the curtains were down, and we could hear everyone on the other side as the assembly started my stomach did flips.

"Hey, breath" Kelsey said, smiling, her, Kayden and James were playing the guitars, and Tom was on drums, "We have a few songs to play, you know Lithium, and my immortal right?" she asked, I nodded, she smiled, "Ok, cool" she said smiling, I swallowed, my heart racing, suddenly the curtains began to rise, I took one last deep breath, first up was Lithium, I placed my hands on the keys, and lost myself in the music, letting all my pain out into the song.

(A/N song on side/top if you wanna just listen to it again I do not own the song)

Lithium, don't want to lock me up inside.
Lithium, don't want to forget how it feels without...
Lithium, I want to stay in love with my sorrow.
Oh, but God, I want to let it go.

Come to bed, don't make me sleep alone.
Couldn't hide the emptiness, you let it show.
Never wanted it to be so cold.

Just didn't drink enough to say you love me.
I can't hold on to me,
Wonder what's wrong with me.

Lithium, don't want to lock me up inside.
Lithium, don't want to forget how it feels without...
Lithium, I want to stay in love with my sorrow.

Don't want to let it lay me down this time.
Drown my will to fly.

Here in the darkness I know myself.
Can't break free until I let it go.
Let me go.

Darling, I forgive you... After all,
Anything is better than to be alone.
And in the end I guess I had to fall.
Always find my place among the ashes.

I can't hold on to me,
Wonder what's wrong with me.

Lithium, don't want to lock me up inside.
Lithium, don't want to forget how it feels without...
Lithium, ...stay in love with you.
I'm gonna let it go.
