10 years later - Clary is now 18

"Clary." Someone was shaking Clary's shoulder lightly, trying to wake her up. She was in that limbo state. Where you neither in the dream, nor the real world.

"Clary." They were shaking her harder now, but she refused to get up.

"Clary, the foods ready." At the announcement of food, Clary's head shot up only to collide with something. When she opened her eyes, Jace was sat on the side of her bed.

"Jesus." Clary swore.

"Nope just me." Jace chuckled. Since Jonathan and Jace had become Parabati, Jace had practically had a second home at Morgenstern manor. Valentine adored Jace, and saw him a second son. To Clary, Jace was just an agitate, even if he was hot.

Groaning Clary put her head back on the pillow, and pulled her covers over her head.

"It's Saturday Jace, go away." She said. Jace wasn't going to take no for an answer. Clary felt him stand up from his position, and hoped he had left the room. Just as she was about to fall asleep, she heard someone enter the room. All of a sudden the cover where whiped away, and a bucket of freezing cold water was dumped on her head.

"AH. JACE I AM GOING TO FUCKING KILL YOU!" She screamed at him. Clary was shocked when she saw that Jonathan was also stood their laughing at her. Fuming Clary made a move to grab Jace, but he easily twisted away. Soon enough, Clary was chasing Jace all through the halls of the manor. Jace saw the dinning room and bolted straight in, followed shortly by Clary.

When she entered the dinning room she saw that the 22 seat table was full of guests. Jace ran over to the seat next to, the left seat of Valentine. All heads turned towards Clary, still in her soaking wet pyjamas. Jace was trying to not laugh. The Lightwoods, Blackwoods, Penhallows, Herondales, Verlacs, Santiagos and Starksweathers were all present, plus some other families Clary didn't recognise.

"Clarissa. I would suggest you go and get changed, we have an announcement to make." Valentines voice wobbled as he too tried not to laugh. Clary turned around and stalked out of the dinning room, passing a giggling Jonathan. She whacked him hard on the back of the head.

"You know you love me Claire-bear." He called after her as she slammed her room door. She couldn't help but smile a little.

She got back to her room in record time. Looking in her wardrobe, Clary saw the dress Izzy had bought her. It was emerald green, and stretched to just above her knees. The bodice was covered in a lime green lace, which also covered her shoulders and upper arms. The dress was pulled tight in the perfect places, which made Clary seem more curvy.

Recently, Isabelle, her Parabati, had been teaching Clary how to apply her makeup correctly. Putting those lessons to use, Clary - after drying her face - lightly applied some foundation, eyeliner, mascara and blush. She pulled out her favourite glossy pink lipstick and her favourite green eyeshadow, and applied those also.

Her hair still wasn't completely dry, so she decide to put it in a messy bun. Looking in the mirror she was happy with her work. She looked elegant, not formal. Sexy yet not slutty.

When she walked back into the dinning room all heads turned towards her. Jonathan and her mother were in their seats now. She strode over to her seat and elegantly sat down. From the corner of her eye she could see Jace staring, and it made her smile. For around a month now Clary had guessed Jace was into her, but she had never made a move.

"Now that we are all here." Valentine directed his words towards Clary."We can finally make the announcement. As you know, me and Jocelyn are getting too old to head the Morgernsten family. Therefore, after much deliberation we have decided that my daughter, Clarissa, is to marry someone of our choice so she may take our place." Clary's jaw dropped. WHAT THE BLOODY HELL! She was too shocked to speak, but not so much so that she couldn't move. As her father spoke his last words she rushed up and ran out of the door.
