Author's Note- Hi! This is my first fanfic. This chapter is super boring, but I'm using it to set up the story. Please keep reading!
Clary POV-
The day started like any other. Clary got out of bed after her mom yelled at her to wake up. She brushed her teeth, grabbed a cereal bar, and waited for brother Jon in the car. "Hey, Clare Bear, can you pass me twenty bucks? I got to uh…. buy lunch," he muttered. Clary knew her brother was a terrible liar, so she asked," tell me why you reallyneed it." Jon sighed and said," fine. I am taking this girl out on a date. I don't have any money since you know… the incident happened. Please? I'll pay you back later." Clary knew she couldn't resist him, so wordlessly, she took twenty dollars out of her bag and gave it to him. "You owe me. Hurry up and drive. We're going to be late," she muttered. "Thank you so much! I promise I'll pay you back!" Jon replied, and quickly drove the car to their high school.
As soon as they arrived at Alicante High School, she saw Izzy and Simon waiting for her. "Hey Clary. What did you do over the weekend? I went shopping and Simon said he spent the whole time playing his video games or whatever," Izzy asked. Simon blushed and looked uncomfortable. Clary knew that Simon had a huge crush on Izzy, and vice versa, but they were both too embarrassed to admit it. "I just stayed home and watched- "she started to admit, but stopped when she saw Sebastian walk into the building. "Hello? Earth to Clary?" Izzy questioned, interrupting the trance Clary was in. "Were you staring at Sebastian? Aline said they broke up a month ago." Izzy declared. Clary just blushed and looked away. Just then, the bell rang, stopping Izzy from being able to relentlessly tease her friend. Izzy silently reminded herself to interrogate Clary later and quickly made her way to her locker and on to first period.
Clary had science with Mr. Blackthorn in first period. As the tardy bell rang, he announced," class as you may know, this is Sebastian Verlac. He is going to be in this class for the rest of this semester." She looked at the handsome boy with jet black hair and dark eyes and he grinned. This was going to be an awkward class. He took a seat next to Clary and whispered," hey, I never saw you on campus before. I'm Sebastian. What's your name?" She whispered back," hey I'm Clary. Clary Fairchild. I never seen you in my classes before either. Do you want me to hand you the class notes? We have a test next week." Sebastian nodded, then smiled back at her. Clary could feel her stomach flutter. This was going to be a long class.
Jace POV-
As soon as he walked into school, he could feel all eyes on him. Even though he without a doubt, was attractive, he didn't want too much attention today. Especially not the attention of Kaelie Whitewillow. Everyone knew they broke up after two months, but they also knew they were an on-again off-again couple. Jace didn't want to see her today, so he took the long way to his class. However, his efforts were in vain. He tried to avoid the glance of his ex, but she broke away from her friends and headed toward him. "What do you want, Kaelie?" he demanded. "What's with the attitude? I want to get back together again. I miss you," she replied, flipping her platinum blond hair and using her puppy dog eyes. "Fine, but I don't to see your annoying friends again," he replied. "Fine, I don't like them anyway. I only want the attention to be popular. Meet me in the closet during first period?" she asked, trying to sound suggestive. Jace snorted, then nodded. It wasn't like Geometry was exciting anyway.
Clary POV-
Clary had asked for a bathroom pass, hoping to avoid the glance from the boy staring intently at her. She walked to the bathroom and heard a noise in the closet. She shook her head disgustedly, knowing it had to be Jace Herondale and Kaelie Whitewillow. No doubt they were back together. She would never admit that 2 years ago she liked him, but the constant presence of Kaelie made Clary give up and convince herself to get a cat and become a cat lady.
Izzy POV-
History was so boring. Not wanting to pay attention to the monotonous voice of Mr. Garroway, she pulled out her phone. She had two texts from Magnus.
-Hey Izzy, can I borrow your glittery eyeshadow? I want to use it for the party tmrw.
- You ready to go that video game convention with Simon on Wednesday? I knew he'll be excited…
Izzy blushed. She had a huge crush on her friend, but it wasn't like she was ever going to admit it. She was forever going to be in the friend zone. She quickly texted back-
-Fine, but don't you dare break it and I guess. I don't know much about video games, but I'm there to support Simon.
A moment later, Magnus texted her again-
Don't worry I won't break it. Tell your brother I said hi.
Izzy knew that Magnus had a crush on her brother Alec. However, Alec was always too embarrassed to make a move or tell his parents about it. Suddenly, she heard a voice," Isabelle, hand your phone to me please. Pay attention to my class." It was her boring teacher. She wanted to retort back, but she didn't want detention so she handed her phone to him, sending him a well-deserved glare.
After class, Izzy went to go find her brother. She spotted him at his locker. "Alec, can you go convince Mr. Garroway to give my phone back? Please? Everyone knows you're his favorite student," she pleaded. Alec thought for a moment, then smirked. "Were you texting during class again. You got to pay attention more," he replied. "Yeah, I was texting Magnus," Izzy answered, enjoying the blush on Alec's face when she mentioned Magnus," everyone knows his class is super boring." Alec sighed then promised her sister to get her phone back, then quickly hurried to his next class.
