Clary had woken up in the middle of the night, luckily without screaming this time. She shook her head and ran her hands through her hair. “Not again,” she mumbled. She got out of her bed and walked to Jace’s room, where she found him wide awake. “Hey,” she spoke, trying not to startle him as she walked over to his bed. “Can’t sleep either?”
Jace heard the latch on his door, but he didn’t look up until he heard the voice. Clary. He turned his head to look at her, giving a half hearted smile. “Not really sleeping much at all these days.” he admitted quietly, scooting over to give her room. “Another nightmare?” he asked. He could recognize the signs in Clary easy enough.
