Jace and Skylar had gone running up the stairs to Magnus's and if they were to be honest, they were having fun nudging each other and laughing. When they arrived at his door, Jace was the one who offered to keep ringing the door bell. Until a very cranky, grumpy Magnus who shot Jace a glare but smiled faintly at his beloved little angel. "Pumpkin, I wish I had known before you would stop by. But currently I am not...in the best state?" Magnus tried to word it..but come on that wasn't going to stop the two lovebirds who pushed their way into his living room. Every time they came here, it was always changing which Skylar was use to really. She didn't mind it, it was interesting to see what mood she was really in. "I was hoping that my breakup would mean I wouldn't have to see..him." The warlock mumbled pointing at Jace before he closed the door behind them.

"Well I thought we were friends." Jace said and crossed his arms over his chest. "I honestly believed that we bonded."

"I only put up with you because of Alexander and Skylnn." Magnus corrected as he walked over to the two, not pleased that they had forced their way into his apartment without considering what he was going through.

"Sadly, you are still stuck with me..thanks to Skylnn." Jace said with a grin when he winked at Skylar who rolled her eyes in a playful manner, before shaking her head at him. 

"Why are you two here again?" Magnus asked, changing the subject. He had been visited by almost everyone, and had received messages...even calls from others asking him and giving him life updates.

"You and Alec should just get back together, he won't do it again really. He only did it because he cares." Jace said, he leaned against the wall as he glanced over at Skylar who had wondered off...she had other things planned then talking to Magnus about Alec..in truth she planned on speaking to him alone about it. 

"Well he can't do it again since well Camille is dead!" Magnus said, shaking his head. The warlock was regretting the fact that he had let him inside the apartment and was now stuck listening about why he should get back with Alec..is if he didn't know how amazing Alexander Lightwood was already. They had began to speak back and forth until Skylar received a call of a slightly panicked Isabelle which meant they had to return to The Institute.

Mourning clothes, used when nephilim die...Sebastian had done nothing but cause chaos...taking nephilim away and using them for his own game. Skylar had fallen silent, mentally blaming herself for all that has happened..it made her sick..well actually she had felt like this for quite sometime and her back was still hurting badly. She wished that she knew how this transformation and how much it would affect her body even more. She glanced at everyone else, before she zoned out into her own world.

Everything was swirling around her head about it all, her brother and her father, it had happened often when she sat in her room all night thinking about it. Skylar could hear others speaking, it was all a blur for her...it had always been a dark place in Skylnn's mind..and it was not something she ever spoke about.  She snapped out of it hearing a few voices, shouting seeing a raven haired shadowhunter moving over to grab a blonde little girl. She watched back and forth until the blonde as known as Emma had run off with Bella following. "Jace, I'll be back.." Skylar whispered glancing over at him, he smiled faintly and gave her a nod. He knew what she planned on doing and was not going to  stop her.

"They shouldn't have done that to you." Skylar said as she walked into the room with girls in, the raven haired shadowhunter trying to get the blonde one to speak. Emma had turned around, frowning at the sight of Skylar..she was ready for another fight with the Clave if that was what it took. "It was wrong, you all have been through something awful...and they didn't even wait to figure out what happened."

"So you're not here to interrogate me?" Emma asked, Bella straightened up as she watched them a carefully. "Then why are you here?"

"To check on you..Emma..I saw what they did..." Skylar explained as she shoved her hands into her jacket pockets as she continued speaking to Emma and Bella until the two girls were feeling comfortable to speak as well.  "So Julian and you are bestfriends?"

"Do you have one?" Emma asked as she tilted her head to the side waiting for a response. "Bella's bestfriend is Mark...Julian's older brother..she is also very much in lov-" Bella quickly nudged the younger blonde and frowned.

"Am not!" Bella said quickly, she felt her cheeks start to burn up slightly at what Emma had almost said. She mumbled a few words under her breath as she stopped herself from turning into a tomato. 

"My bestfriend is my parabatai...Isabelle." Skylar said with a bright smile, she could think about the very day they had the ceremony and how amazing it truly felt for both of the girls. Before the older blonde can say anything else, she felt a hand on her shoulder for a second and knew it was Jace. 

"Hey, everything alright here?" Jace asked softly to Skye who nodded, the couple whispered to each other before the Herondale looked at Emma then at Bella, a soft smile on his lips as he turned around and left. 

"You know Jace Lightwood?" Emma asked, her eyes suddenly lighting up when she spoke of him. Skylar nodded and cleared her throat, she wondered why Emma was suddenly happy.

"I do, he's a close friend...very friendly and close." Skylar said, immediately regretting the words that had escaped her mouth, Bella raised an eyebrow at her and shook her head.

"You mean...you two are dating? Everyone knows about him having a girlfriend, we may be younger but we aren't stupid." Bella pointed out, Skylar chuckled and nodded in agreement. 

"Yes, we are dating."

"Which makes you Skylnn Morgenstern..." Emma said with a small smile tugging at her lips, she sighed and shook her head. Mentally cursing at herself for not noticing before, if you stared at Skylar you could see the similarities between her and her twin brother. "You two are talked about a lot...we all know everything that there is to know..."
