I woke up to the sound of my twin brother jonathan calling out my name. Ignoring him I shoved my pillow over my face covering my ears. His footsteps were growing closer and I groaned. My door opened and I already knew jonathan already had a smirk on his face. "Oh clarissa?" he whispered and I threw one of my pillows at him. Today was not the day to anoyy. I felt a shadow cast over me and my pillow being jerked from my grasp. Screaming while pulling my covers over me I whimpered hopelessly. Thinking he was gone I poked my eyes out from the covers and saw his blonde halo like hair and that devilish smile of his. Frustrated my hands shot out trying to push him away. Sadly though he jumped out of the way and onto my bed. Anoyyed I raised my eyebrow at him pushing my red curls from my face.

"Come on be nice to your big brother"

"Only by five minutes jonathan"

Sleepily I sat up against the wall and glanced at the clock. It was ten and saturday I really didn't enjoy that. Christmas break was offically starting monday and I really was trying to enjoy my weekend before the hustle and busel of everything that is jolly. He pouted and I rolled my eyes getting out of my sheets and standing up. "Fine" I said to him "what?" The smile on his face indicated I was going to regret this sooner or later.

"Were going to a cabin for the whole break!"

My eyes widened we were on break for almost three weeks. No i was not being stuck in a cabin with my brother and whoever else for three weeks. He was still smiling sweetly and I was going to attempt to smack it off in a minute or two.

"With who?"

"Jace and them"

"NO you are going on your own i'd rather be here without internet than stuck with you and your best friend!"

He frowned and faked a tear. He should really know by now his fake tears did nothing on my mind nor did i care. I crossed my arms and shook my head causing my red locks to whip him in the face. Sighing he sat up straight a stern look on his face. Oh god not the big brother look.

"You are going and that's that!"

"You aren't the boss of me"

"Yes I am mom already said your going parents aren't allowed anyway"

He got up and walked out closing my door behind him. The least he could've told me was when all of this was going to start. I wanted to assume monday but jon always had a way of doing weird stuff. Slowly i got up and padded down to his bedroom knocking on the door lazily. He opened it and raised his eyebrow. I did the same thing obviously anoyying him.

"When?"

"In a hour"

He shut the door on my face and once again I screamed. Walking back into my room I closed the door and rumaged through my closet through everything in. How were we getting presents if our parents weren't there. Pulling down my suit cases and duffle bags a note fell. There was a answer mom and dad dropped off the presents and only magnus (the responsible one) knew where they were for christmas day. Trying my fastest to pack my bags with the right stuff my phone buzzed. Looking over I saw it was a text from izzy.

Be there in ten

okay

Quickly zipping up my bags I threw on some Jeans my combat boots and a gray sweater. There was nothing i could doo quickly with my hair in ten minutes so I just started brushing it out when jon knocked on my door yelling.

"COME ON MOVE IT RED HEAD"

Busting through the door I glared at him.

"I don't even want to go so why don't you come on"

I proceed to walk down the stairs with my things and strung my purse over my body. Jon opened the door for me and I marched out into the freezeing december air. Snow fell into my hair lightly as i trugged over to Jon's truck bed. Jace Herondales blonde head popped up and came over to the truck bed. He better be ridding with Jon or I would kill someone. Smirking wildly he took my begs from me.

"Clarissa"

"Idiot"

He playfully rolled his eyes and I walked over to Isabelle new silver nissan. Knocking on the window i signaled for her to unlock the door. I opened the door and slid in glad to feel the heat on medium warming me. Jon walked up and began helping jace. Before he got in the car he signaled the rest of us to follow his car. As we pulled out I got a call from him and i put it on speaker his light voice full and clear. He started giving directions and i picked up the phone anoyyed.

"Why couldn't you have called izzy for this instead of me?"

"Because you have unlimited data cause mom and dad love you more"

"I know now shut up and keep driving"

I put the phone down and hang up when he was done. Boredly I turned on the radio and hummed the lyrics to Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas. Isabelle was tapping along and i wondered how Jon had pulled her along. As if reading my mind she answered my thought.

"He said simon was coming"

The corner of her mouth quirked and I made a oo sound and she flushed. Her and simon were absolutly adorable together. Not that they were even together yet but i was working on it. It was so obvious they had the hots for each other not that they would admit it. "Stop looking at me like that!" she laughed and turned the radio down slightly still smiling. I couldn't help it though I loved love.

"Soon im going to have to start looking at you and jace when you're by each other like that"

"Don't make me puke"

"You know you like him clary"

She nudged me laughing once more. I refused to say anything. I didn not like Isabelles brother I absolutly dispised Jace Herondale.

"It was one dare in 7th grade!"

"You still tongued him though in front of Jonathan!"

"Because of you!"

We both cracked up as we pulled into a gravel drive way behind Jon's truck. Alec and Magnus following behind probably with Simon in there to. Izzy and I stepped out and I ran over to grab my bags from Jon's truck. Right as he dropped them to the dirt covered ground I swooped them up carefully. Once everyone had their stuff Jon directed us to the cabin. It was a nice size and I looked over to Magnus who had evidently helped Jon pick it out. He and alec were holding hands and i was practically fangirling over it as well as every other sane girl in the world. He pointed to the windows and named off the rooms.

"That large room is the girls it's the biggest since im nice the other two are the same size me and alec's is that very top one on the last floor and that one down the hall is Jon and Jace's"

"Where's my room?"

"Oh yeah simon you have the pull out couch"

Grumbling Simon walked up the wooden porch while the rest of us laughed. Magnus opened the door and I thought maybe just maybe this wouldn't be so bad.

Me and Isabelle ran down the hall to our room and collasped onto our seprate beds. They were both queen sized which was freaking amazing. Magnus had really taken us into thought. Looking at the size of the other rooms him and alec probably shared a bed and with Jon and Jace's luck got two seperate twin beds. Happily I started unpacking while Izzy looked out the window. Suddenly she bounced over to my bed happily.

"What do you want to do tonight?"

"I don't know"

I laughed at her bubbliness as she got up and walked around the room a little. She took out make up and beauty products setting them down on the long dresser and vanitys. She even offered to help me hang stuff up. While we set to work I inhaled and took in the pleasnt scent of pine needles and ginger bread. Suddenly there was a crash and a certain golden boys voice calling out from the kitchen that everything was okay. Izzy and I rolled our eyes and walked out of our room down the steps to investigate.

Hey guys I'm in a Christmas mood so tis the season for a nice little story! :3
