Hey. I can't update 'Magnus' so, I just thought I'd give u a little something just to keep u occupied until I can get my hands on 'City of Bones' (permanently!/library, which ever comes first...) Sorry if characters are a little OOC...

I don't own anything but my imagination, (and my laptop...)

Enjoy!


I was in a bad mood.

We, (a.i. my parents and I,) had been in Idris for three weeks, going to Clave meetings. Those meetings were the most mind-numbing activity I have ever participated in or heard about. All that happened was a bunch of Shadowhunters proposed rules that they knew would infuriate the Downworlders, causing arguments and objection, and when things got ugly, they blamed the Downworlders for being violent and unruly. One meeting could go on for hours. Even when they were being somewhat decent to each other, no one could agree on anything. All the Shadowhunters argued with each other about whether or not we should or shouldn't do x, y and z. After about three hours of listening to them, (I have a high tolerance for listening to arguments, I live with Izzy and Jace in the same house, don't I?) I was fed up. I stood up and told them outright,that if we were so conflicted, we should take a vote, all in favor raise your hand...that was meet with glares and hisses of 'freak', and, 'what do you know? Your only eighteen'. I don't know what I would have done if my parents hadn't stood up for me. But that still didn't make it any less boring...

Since I had to go, they left Jace in charge. I personally, think that they screwed up. Big time. Sure enough, the moment we entered the Institute, we found three very drunk Shadowhunters, a terrified Church, and a mess that looked like it would take weeks, no...years to clean up. My parents were ready to rip off their heads. Trying to sneak away and visit Magnus (who couldn't come with me because, despite all the treaties and the fact that Downworlders were now a part of the Clave, there was still a lot of discrimination...) was impossible, and they looked mad enough to kill, so I didn't dare ask.

I was suffering from serious Magnus withdrawal. I needed him now!

After an hour of mom and dad yelling at Jace for being so irresponsible, we started the LONG task of cleaning up the house. Again, by we, I mean my parents and I, cause Jocelyn had come by halfway through their tirade and took Clary home, and Jace...well, he fled. So did Izzy. I don't think that's fair, considering he made the mess, but judging by the looks on their faces, I didn't want to contradict, or upset them more than they already were.

We managed to clean up the entire Institute in seven hours. Pretty impressive, I have to admit, it looked cleaner than when we'd left, and considering how much of a neat freak my mom is, that's saying something. But I didn't care at the moment. All I could think about was Magnus and how impatient I was to see him. After a quick shower and clothing change, I left to go see Magnus. Two seconds after I walked outside, Izzy came running towards me, "HEY! If you are going to see Magnus, I'm coming too!"

I stared at her, "Why?"

"Because. If mom and dad catch me, I'm SO dead."

"So, your coming with me to see my boyfriend..."

"Oh, don't worry, you'll never even know I'm there!"

I was spared from commenting as Jace came out behind her. "Hey, you going to Magnus's? I'm coming."

"Why is everyone so interested in Magnus all of a sudden?" I looked up and asked the sky.

"Because, mom and dad are FREAKING OUT." he said it slowly, as if he was talking to a stupid kid.

"I KNOW THAT!" I snapped."I was with them when we first came back! Honestly, what were you THINKING? That we'd never find out?" I was going into 'mean mood'. They had the nerve to throw a party without me, not even bother to clean up the mess, (meaning I had to do it. Which meant that it took away from my 'snuggle' time with Magnus) and now they wanted me to save their sorry backsides by hiding them in Magnus's apartment. the fact that I hadn't seen Magnus in weeks did nothing to improve my mood. "If you guys think I'm going to hide you right after I spent the last seven hours picking up your mess, from your party. Then you've got another thing coming!"

I stormed away. They followed me.

"You can't stop us from coming with you, you know." Jace smirked. "Even if you turn around, we'll still head over to Magnus's. You don't have to hide us. Magnus will let us in and all we have to do is hang out for a few hours until mom and dad calm down enough to forget everything."

"Jace, be nice." Izzy scolded. "I know why he's so grouchy...it's because he hasn't slept with Magnus since he left..."

"Oh, sorry dude" Jace 'apologized'. "Forgot you're so horny. Not to mention gay..." That was the last straw.

I ran past them. Turning the next corner before either of them could respond. I kept seeing red. To say that I was pissed off would be an understatement. I was so upset that I couldn't think straight. After running for a few blocks, I had to stop and breath. The others were far behind me. Than it started to pour.

Great, just great. The first time I see Magnus in three weeks, and I'm going to be soaking wet. Today was just not my day...

I covered my head using my arms and started to run again. My only comforting thought was that if it was raining, than Jace and Izzy would be wet too.


Like I said, sorry if the characters are a little OOC. This idea just popped in my head randomly while I was doing my h.w.

No flames please.

(u know what I will say, but I might as well say it anyway...) Reviews are like MILKY WAYS!
