It was one in the morning and Clary was sitting on Jace's bed, drawing in her sketch pad. Jace was in the shower. Isabelle was sleeping, Alec was marking a new dagger in the weapons room and she didn't even know where Simon was.
"I need to talk to you."
Clary jumped when Jace's voice close behind her. "I hate it when you do that."
"I'm sorry." Jace said.
He had on jeans that rode low on his hips and he had no shirt on, revealing his marked body.
There was a short silence when Clary realized that Jace was waiting for her to speak. "What do you want to talk to me about?" she asked.
He came over to sit on the bed next
The air was filled with a rich, spicy smell as I bounded down the narrow stairs, running shoes in hand. I jumped down the last few stairs, landing cat-like on the ancient wooden floorboards, causing them to shriek in protest.

Taking her hand Jace led Clary down the greenhouse stairs. Her skin seemed to tingle with electricity where it touched his. The Institute was dark and quiet around them. Her skin glowed in the faint light cast by the witchlight rune-stone in her hand. He smiled to himself, glad that he had been able to give her a birthday present when no-one else had.
She caught him casting her a sideways glance as they walked and smiled that bewitching smile of hers.
You know, I havent seen your room yet, she pointed out.
Jaces heart suddenly pounded faster. Do you want me to s
My alarm clock hadnt gone off. Why hadnt my alarm clock gone off? It wasnt a weekend; I had to go to school today.
I groaned, rolling onto my stomach to bury my face in the pillow. It was my eighteenth birthday today and I had school. I didnt even have art to look forward to. Algebra woopty-freaking-doo.
I reached out an arm, feeling for Gawain, who wasnt there. That was strange. Normally he didnt leave till I was awake, and surely he wouldnt leave without saying happy birthday.

Flashback:All of a sudden Aelita gasped and it wasn't because of the scary scene in the movie. Aelita just spotted my engagement ring.
Yumi's POV
"Psst Yumi can I talk to you for a second?" Aelita whispered. Oh great she definately noticed my engagement ring.
"Umm can't it wait until the end of the movie Aelita?" I whispered back hoping that she would agree to it. That way Ulrich and I could tell everyone at the same time.
"No Yumi come on." Aelita was now dragging me out of the theater and into the girl's bathroom against my will.
"Ok Yumi now tell me about that ring." Aelita demanded once we were in the bathroom. Hmm maybe I could play
Flashback:
"Um guys Yumi and I have something important to tell you." Ulrich began.
