Clary is a normal 16-year-old girl from Arizona whose life is about to change. She is moving to San Diego, California to get away from an abusive father and to get away from all the bullying at her school.
She thought her life was a living hell and...
I was sitting in my room minding my own business. I heard a knock on my bedroom door. It was my brother Shawn.
SC- Hey Clary. CC- What is it, Shawn? SC- You have a guest downstairs. CC- I do? SC- (nods)
I rolled off my bed and followed Shawn downstairs. I slowly walked down the stairs and saw a boy's body that I kinda recognized.
He turned around with a huge smile on his face.
??- Hey Claire-Bear.
My eyes widened and I got insanely happy.
CC- Justin!!!!
I ran over and jumped on him. He caught me and we hugged each other.

CC(whispering in his ear)- OMG, I missed you. JL(whispering back)- I missed you too.
He put me down and looked at me.
CC- What are you doing back so early. JL- My team got sick and we all had to come home. CC(cautious)- You're not sick right. JL- No. After games, I always go back to the hotel with my mom. CC- How'd your team get sick. JL- They drunk water that Europe provided. CC- Oh. JL- Clary can I talk to you on the porch. CC- Sure.
We walked outside to my front porch and Justin shut the door behind him.
We stopped in front of my front door and we faced each other.
JL- So...... CC- So....... JL- (chuckles) CC- What did you need to talk to me about? JL- Oh. Remember, before I left for Europe, how we have been going out on dates and stuff like that. CC- Yeah. JL- I just wanna tell you that I had fun on every single date that we have been on. CC- I've had fun too. JL- Also, I..... uh..... CC- (giggles) Is Justin Lakewood nervous? JL- No. CC- Then come on out and say it. JL- I like you. CC- (eyes widened) JL- Like a lot.
My brothers were right. Justin does like me. I never thought he would actually admit it.
CC- I like you a lot too Justin. JL- (smiles) Then this makes this next thing I'm gonna say a whole hell of a lot easier. CC- What is it?
Justin looks down like he is nervous and then he looks back up at me.
JL- Be my girlfriend. CC- (eyes widened) What? JL- (chuckles) I want you to be my girlfriend. CC- (gasps softly) Yeah. I'll be your girlfriend. JL(excitedly)- You will!!! CC- (smiles and nods her head) JL- I'm so happy. Thank you.
He grabs me and spins me around.
