My eyes scan the giant, drunk, noisy, multi-colored (from the lights) crowd. Waiting, wondering where he is. "He has to be here." I say to my "boyfriend". I know Simon has a crush on me but, I don't like him like that. So, I'm hoping, that he'll get over me once he finally "has" me. See, I'm not the awful person you might think I am.
"We should leave. Your dress is more like a scrap of fabric and my costume is kinda itchy. You must be cold, I know I am. Look there's alcohol, this isn't age appropriate. Lets go-" Simon ranted.
"Just shut up, Simon. That's coke, it's hot in here, and your costume is not itchy. Now lets go make You-Know-Who (A/N No, I'm not talking about Voldemort) jealous."
"Lover's quarrel?" A smooth as honey voice asked behind me. The voice I know so well and miss so much.
"I don't know what you're talking about." I said casually, trying to hide my excitement, turning around.
Jace's eyes about popped right out of his head. Yeah, my costume showed that much skin.
"Clary?" Jace squeaked.
"Yes, Jace?" I answered.
"What are you wearing?"
"Elaborate."
"I mean , isn't it a little..." He paused as if he couldn't fing the right word," tiny."
"I have no clue what you're talking about."
"Well, I mean... You know..." He stuttered.
"You know as entertaining as this is, I think we'll go get some of that "coke". If that's even what it is." Simon interrupted.
"Uh, Clary can't drink that. It's actually alcohol." Jace said like an overprotective mother.
"Uh, " I said, repeating Jace." I can drink whatever I want. You're not my mother, or my boyfriend. After you cheated on me I'm surprised I'm even letting you talk to me! And you don't have a right to look at me like that!" Clary said the last part after Jace gave her a look of sincere hurt.
I stormed over to the counter, with Simon trailing behind me, grabbed a bottle of beer and finished it in a couple of gulps. Then I looked at Jace challengingly, while reaching for another bottle.
"Ok. That's enough for you." Simon told me.
I looked up, and he backed off at the look in my eyes.
"Clary-"
I then proceeded to give Jace the look, and her had the same reaction.
Four hours later, I'm hunched over my toilet spilling my guts out.
I really shouldn't have drunken that much.
"I told you so." Simon said, holding back my hair after I voice day thoughts.
"Shut up," I muttered weakly.
After a while in the bathroom, Simon helped me get into bed.
"Thanks." I said, sorry I made him do that.
"It's ok. I'll just head home now." He said back.
"Bye."
"Bye."
School on Monday (the party was on Saturday) was uneventful. Until lunch.
I was ranting about Dramione and as I sat down Jace's girlfriend, the one he cheated on me with, decided it would be absolutely hilarious if she poured water down my head.
I thought it would be hilarious if she had no hair.
I good sized chunk out.
She stormed off, probably expecting Jace to go after her.
He didn't.
That made me smirk harder.
"Well done." Simon commented outside of the bathroom as I was cleaning up.
Thankfully she's so dumb Kaelie can't figure out anything else to do but pour water on me, so I learned quick to have a pair of clothes on hand.
"I know." I said very modestly.
Nothing else happened that day.
To think about it it's been kinda quiet these past few days.
But I'm sure nothing's going on.
At least I hope.
I don't need too many surprises these days.
