In my veins »/Raphael Santiago\«

Castle

Afina woke up in the middle of the night to her phone ringing. She groaned turning on her side to see who would be calling her and to her surprise it was Clary.

"What do you need Clary?" Afina asked rubbing her eyes as she sat up in her bed. After staying with Raphael the night before she decided she wanted to sleep in her own bed at the institute the next night.

"Have you heard from Simon? He won't answer me" Clary sighed and Afina rolled her eyes sighing

"What'd you do now? No I haven't heard from him. I don't know if you've noticed but he hasn't really been jumping at the opportunity to call me" Afina said hearing Clary sigh

"Well could you help me look for him tomorrow morning?" Clary asked

"Uh ya no I can't. I'm sure Simons fine Clary. I'm going to bed now" Afina said leaning back into her bed closing her eyes

"No wait Afina!" Clary said urgently

"Bye bye now Clary" Afina hung up after that sighing contently before closing her eyes and falling back asleep.

The next morning Afina got up quickly got dressed and put her hair in a high pony tail before going down to train more.

She first grabbed her bow and arrows admiring them, missing how she used to hold the bow everyday and now it's every few months

She started shooting at her targets the feeling of herself coming back to her as she moved to each target hitting it in a bullseye

After awhile of shooting arrows and throwing daggers Afina went to leave to get cleaned up to get on with her day when she stopped hearing Jace and Izzy at the end of a conversation

"Woah slow down Jace" Izzy said

"Izzy, I can't just erase my feelings" Jace reasoned

"Do Simon and Clary a favor and don't go there" Izzy said and Afina stepped out into sight

"Funny hearing that from you" Afina said and Izzy looked away

"I thought we were good?" Izzy questioned and Afina nodded

"We are I just find it funny" Afina said crossing her arms

"Find what funny?" Jace asked

"That she cares about you getting in the middle of a relationship when she did the exact same" Afina said walking away while Jace and Izzy gave each other a look

"What's gotten into her I thought you guys were good?" Jace said raising an eyebrow and Izzy shrugged before continuing to walk over to Alec and Sebastian.

Afina walked down the street smiling at the feeling of the sun on her. She looked to her side to see Clary walking out of where Simon stayed with tears streaming down her face

She frowned before deciding to go see her brother to see if he was ok. She didn't know what happened but she knew it must have been bad

"Simon?" Afina called knocking on the metal door which he slowly opened and she noticed his eyes were red and tears were running down his cheeks

"Oh Simon, I'm so sorry" Afina said pulling him into a hug after putting two and two together about what just happened between him and Clary.

Simon hugged his sister tightly soaking in the feeling of hugging his sister, taking in the feeling of what it must feel like to have her attention.
