This is set in 2015. I wrote this before The Dark Artifices/The Last Hours/Tales from the Shadowhunter Academy came out, sorry if something is different if you're reading this after they are published. He arrives mysteriously in New York where he is found by the New York Institute Shadowhunters. Except he's been dead for 78 years. (My bios are really bad. Just try the story.) Almost all characters and ideas are Cassandra Clare's. The pictures on the cover are Cassandra Jean's, though the collage was done by me. ~Natalie

Have you ever wondered what it would be like, if all the characters from The Mortal Instruments, were to read The Infernal Devices? I'm sure you've all heard by now, that Tessa Gray will almost certainly be in 'City of Heavenly Fire'. Well, what if, all the TMI characters, plus Tessa, who by the way, is still alive, read The Infernal Devices? What would some of the reactions be? And when I say, all the characters, I mean all of them. What happens, when all the characters mentioned from all over the series, and more, are all transported to Idaris, to partake in reading? What happens when Magnus, yet again, enters Idaris, but this time...with sparkles!?!? What's Tessa's reaction to all this? Not to mention, (SPOILERS) Jem Carstairs, being a silent brother, and all the infernal Devices characters coming to the future to read. This is gonna be fun! If you haven't read all of The Mortal Instruments and all of The Infernal Devices, by Cassandra Clare, I suggest not reading this. Possible Cursing

17-year-old Will Herondale is content with his life. He's got a good family and two amazing best friends, Jem and Will. But Will lives in a world where your soulmate's words are tattooed onto you from birth. But when Will's tattoo is simply the statement, "I love you, Will," how will he know when his soulmate will die?

**I do not own the cover image!** This is a fan fiction for the Will & Jem (relationship) fandom--- the FIRST on Wattpad!!* Ever wonder why Will and Jem were as close as they were? Wonder how they could be so selfless with each others lives in a way that many other Parabatai were not? Ever compare their friendship with that of Jace and Alec, and wonder what really made their relationship so different? Now is your time to find out. This is the story behind the story. The story that tells the secret life of William Herondale and James Carstairs. The story that not even Tessa Gray herself, knew of.

Will Herondale is a completely closed off, depressed 17 year old boy. All his life he's worked on building walls around himself, never letting anyone in. Plus, he's in love with his best friend, James "Jem" Carstairs. Jem is calm and accepting. He's oblivious to Will's feelings for him, and always sticks by Will's side, no matter how frustrating it gets. Ever since they became friends, he's been trying to knock down Will's walls. When he finally succeeds, how will he react to Will's dark secrets? *in journal format from Will's point of view*

What if Henry made a portal that took the Shadowhunters from the London institute, to the New York one? In this book The Mortal Instruments and The Infernal Devices meet. Find out what goes on when two worlds collide. CONTAINS A LOT OF SPOILERS!! And all rights go to Cassandra Clare :)

Will and Jem are an undeniable truth no matter what world, what life, what scenario they find themselves in. As the wheel turns and life changes, so does the nature of their love. The constant in their lives is someone there to watch their back and guard their heart against the world, over and over and over again. (Series of one-shots. Requests are always open!
