A/N
Jace Lightwood was a lot of things, he was a brother, a shadowhunter, and most of all he was stubborn. So naturally when The elder Lightwoods banned drinking, he was the first to rebel. The rule had come about after Isabelle, Clary, Alec, Magnus, and him and come stumbling back at three am so wasted they couldn't remember their own names. Mayrse had been furious and had instantly put a ban on her children's and their friends drinking. This was on Monday, now it was Friday night and Jace needed to unwind. He figured a few drinks wouldn't get him in trouble since he had a high tolerance. One drink turned in to two which turned into six and that's where he had lost count. Now, Jace was stuck outside the club unable to get a cab and wasted. He decided to call Alec for help. He answered on the third ring.
"What is it, Jace?" he snapped.
"Hey, broski, brosif, bro-buddy." Jace slurred
"Are you drunk?"
"I only had a few-"
"Drinks?"
"Bottles I think." Alec sighed heavily.
"Where are you?"
"H-h-Hardy's..." Jace slurred. "Or maybe Harry's."
"I'll be right ther, whatever you do, don't move." Alec said and then hung up. He raced down the hall of the Institute and pounded on Isabelle's door.
"What is it?" she snapped.
"Jace is drunk and stranded at Hardy's." Isabelle followed him without further questions. The two raced down the road and made it to the bar in record they found Jace standing as still as a statue in front of the door.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Alec asked as they approached.
"The magic voice on the speaking box told me not to move, so I listened." Alec rolled his eyes at his parabati's antics.
"As the magical voice I give you permission to move." Jace rolled his shoulders and then took off like a shot out of a gun. As he ran he ripped off his shirt and threw it behind him. His siblings took off after him,screaming at him to stop and slow down. Instead of listening, Jace started to sing."
'Is this the real life,
Is this just fantasy..." Jace sang. Isabelle shook her head as she sprinted.
"Is he singing Bohemian Rhapsody?" She asked. Alec only nodded and picked up the pace. After what felt like hours of chasing him Jace finally tired himself out. He turned into Central Park and laid down on the first bench he found, by the time the other two Shadowhunter caught up he was already asleep.
"What should we do?" Isabelle asked.
"Well, the Institute is only eight blocks away, we could just carry him." Alec suggested. His sister looked at him like he was insane.
"I am not carrying him eight blocks, running in these heels is hard enough without all that dead weight." Alec just sighed.
'Well, then what should we do?"
"Let him sleep here and pick up his hungover ass in the morning." She suggested. Alec glared at her.
"He's your brother and you'd just leave him here like that?"
"I'd leave you too don't worry."
"Just help me carry him." Alec said as he grabbed Jace's arms. Isabelle reluctantly grabbed his legs, together they started walking back toward the Institute.
"He sooo owes us..." Isabelle said as they walked, "I'm talking eternal servitude and a shopping trip."
"I think mom will kill him before you can make your request." Alec said as they mounted the steps and awkwardly pushed open the door. Mayrse was standing in the Church with her arms crossed over her chest. Her eyes filled with worry when she saw Jace.
"What happened?" She asked. Alec was just about to lie for his brother when, unfortunately Jace decided to wake up.
"Magical voice, who's the scary lady?" He attempted to whisper to Alec. Mayrse's gaze turned stony.
"You've been drinking again haven't you?" Jace just giggled and attempted to walk over to her, falling on his face ungracefully in the process. Mayrse looked livid.
"Alec, help him upstairs we'll deal with this in the morning when he'll remember, I suggest not letting him sleep alone, in case he gets sick or decided to wander." Alec nodded and helped Jace to the elevator, Isabelle followed giggling.
The next morning Jace woke with a missive hangover on the floor in Alec's room. His friend was sitting at his desk writing. Alec turned and saw Jace blinking sleepily.
"Oh, good, you're awake." Alec said and then he quickly opened the shades letting the middday sun stream on to Jace. He screamed. Mayrse walked in a few moments later. Jace cringed when he saw her furious face.
"What the hell were you thinking?"
