Title: Cemetery Rating: PG Word count: 161 Pairing: Clary/Mattes Round/Fight: 4/A Summary: You are walking home and cut through a cemetery late at night.
“Ugh, Clary, this place gives me the creeps.”
Mattes picked his way through the weedy grass that had long since obscured the pathway through the old cemetery, and Clary paused ahead, waiting.
“Tisn’t a big deal, you looby. ‘S just a bunch of stones ‘n shadows.”
Mattes made a face, looking at the nearest headstone. The name had been scrubbed from the face of the rock by time, but the namelessness didn’t help him feel any more settled.
“It’s just—“ Mattes paused, but continued when Clary remained quiet, “—reminds me of why I wanted to be a Dog in the first place, you know?”
Clary studied one headstone herself. “So things like this don’t have to happen?” she asked quietly. The headstone had been that of a child, and something like sorrow tugged the corners of her mouth down.
“Somethin’ like that,” Mattes agreed, taking her hand and pulling her away from the sad, lonely granite. “Gates’ this way.”
