Simon glanced toward the window. It was a brisk night, and the
wind was blowing leaves across Second Avenue like handfuls of
thrown confetti. There was a girl walking down the street, a girl in a
tight belted trench coat, with long black hair that flew in the wind.
People turned to watch her as she walked past. Simon had looked at
girls like that before in the past, idly wondering where they were
going, who they were meeting. Not guys like him, he knew that
much.
Except this one was. The bell on the diner’s front door rang as the
door opened, and Isabelle Lightwood came in. She smiled when she
saw Simon, and came toward him, shrugging off her coat and draping
it over the back of the chair before she sat down. Under the coat
she was wearing one of what Clary called her “typical Isabelle outfits”:
a tight short velvet dress, fishnet stockings, and boots. There
was a knife stuck into the top of her left boot that Simon knew only
he could see; still, everyone in the diner was watching as she sat
down, flinging her hair back. Whatever she was wearing, Isabelle
drew attention like a fireworks display.
Beautiful Isabelle Lightwood. When Simon had met her, he’d assumed
she’d have no time for a guy like him. He’d turned out to be
mostly right. Isabelle liked boys her parents disapproved of, and in
her universe that meant Downworlders—faeries, werewolves, and
vamps. That they’d been dating regularly for the past month or two
amazed him, even if their relationship was limited mostly to infrequent
meetings like this one. And even if he couldn’t help but
wonder, if he’d never been changed into a vampire, if his whole life
hadn’t been altered in that moment, would they be dating at all?
