With Loves Last Breath

Simon

Simon layer on his side of the bed, starring at the ceiling. Izzy was on the other side, snoring softly. It was an adorable snore, almost like a kittens. Simon turned to look at Izzy's sleeping form. It was on a whim that he asked to sleep with Izzy. He was pretty sure the others thought that he just wanted to stay away from Clary. But it was more than that. When Izzy had kissed him, he'd felt something, a spark, igniting in his chest. A spark that wasn't there with Clary.

Simon let out a frustrated sigh, and slowly sat up, careful not to wake Izzy. He slid out of bed, and out the door. He wasn't going to leave the apartment, he wasn't that stupid, but he needed to be alone for a bit. Away from Izzy.

He crept into the kitchen, and sat down at the table, his head in his hands. Why was this so complicated? He loved Clary, he knew that for sure, but, something about Isabelle, it compelled him. She was just so mysterious. And beautiful. And now, he wasn't so sure about his feelings with Clary. Yes, he loved her, but in what way? In a romantic way?

Or in a brotherly way?

Simon groaned and layer his head against the table. The cold wood felt good on his for head. He closed his eyes, trying to organize his thoughts. It was late, but he felt wide awake. His head was whirling, from everything with Magnus, to Izzy kissing his cheek before she fell asleep, to Clary and Jace holding hands as they walked into their room together. Ooh, he felt a headache coming from all of this.

A sudden creak from the hallway made his head shoot up. He got up very quickly, and grabbed the nearest object to him. Great, who ever was there, if they were an intruder, they'd have to go against Simon and his deadly rubber spatula. Simon inched toward the entrance hall. His find landed on a squeaky floorboard, and a loud shriek came from the loot. Simon froze, waiting for someone to come at him. He stood there for about a minute before he heard someone breathe a sigh of relief and the door opened, hinges crying out in protest. The door closed with a soft click, and Simon heard steps running down the hall. Who the hell was that? He thought. It couldn't be one of the others, they all knew better than to leave. And there was no one inside who would want to hurt anyo-

 Simon felt the blood drain from his face. There was one person here, who might want to hurt them, who was one of Elizabeth's closest companions, supposedly turned "good". But what if it was just a ruse? Simon turned on his heel, sliding on the slick floor, and ran to the door for Brianna's and Adi's room. With one strong kick, he opened the door. Simon ran inside, and stopped dead in his tracks. Adi was straddling Brianna, and they both looked very flushed in the face. Brianna's shirt was on the floor and Adi's pants were unbuttoned. Simon felt blood rush to his cheeks. Clearly he had been wrong, and had just interrupted a very intimate moment.

"Simon" Brianna said through clenched teeth. "What do you want." she reached down and picked her shirt up off of the floor.

"I'm really sorry clearly I just interrupted something I didn't mean to disturb you but I thought something might have happened to you cause I heard someone leave and I thought it might be Adi going back to Elizabeth I thought she might have fooled us and you were in here dead or dyeing and-"

"Simon" Brianna barked. "Slow down! I can barely understand a thing your saying. Now, what is this about someone leaving?"

"I was in the kitchen, uh, getting a glass of water, when I heard someone in the hall, when I went to go look, I made a noise, and after someone sighed and I heard the door open and close, and there was the sound of someone running down the hall. I thought it might have been Adi, running back to Elizabeth, but clearly I was wrong." Simon stuttered, trying not to look at Adi's glaring face."

"Crap." muttered Brianna. "It couldn't have been anyone inside, no one in their right mind would leave, so who could have gotten past the wards?"

"Brianna!"

Izzy came running in, and nearly crashed into Simon. Lucky, he caught her before she tripped and fell.

"Brianna, something's happened!" she said, breathlessly.

"What now?" groaned Adi.

"When I woke up, Simon wasn't in bed, so I went to look for him. But when I went to go check the rooms,"

Brianna went pale. "Please don't say who I think your going to say is missing."

Izzy shook her head miserable. "It's Eleanor." she said.

"She's gone!"
