The boy with golden eyes looks down at Clary, his height towering over her. He has golden hair to match with his golden eyes and has a slim, muscular build. He's wearing a long sleeved black V-neck, but Clary can see something black poking out from under his shirt on his chest... A tattoo? Clary chews on her lip; he was extremely attractive and he was staring at her. The blue eyed boy gives Isabelle a look as if to say: Seriously? Causing Clary to frown.
The golden boy inspects Clary, head to toe and she feel her cheeks redden. She wasn't wearing the most flattering clothes and her hair was a mess, though the latter was usual for her. Suddenly, the boy bursts out laughing. Clary knits her eyebrows, glancing at herself in the mirror, wondering if there was something on her face. The other boy looks at him with wide eyes before he starts chuckling along.
"Really? Wow, I mean I was feeling sorry for whoever was going to have to share a room with you Izzy, but I'm beginning to think it'll be the other way around." He laughs some more and Isabelle's mouth falls open. Clary bites down on her tongue and glares at him though deep down that had really hurt.
"Jace! Stop it, you haven't even met her! Don't be a prick." Isabelle shrieks at him which only makes him laugh harder. He doubles over and Clary can feel whatever attraction she'd just had towards him diminish.
"Is something funny?", Clary finally speaks up and is surprised with how strong her voice actually sounded. It appears she's not the only one when the blue eyed boy smirks slightly.
"No there isn't", he glances at Jace, as Isabelle had just called him, "I apologize for my friend and I both, you're just not what we were expecting. I'm Alec." He takes a step towards her, smiling slightly before reaching his hand out. Clary notes that he has an accent too before glancing over at Jace, noticing he's stopped laughing. Instead he was now looking at Alec, frowning.
She looks back down at Alec's hand which was still reaching out and contemplates what to do. If she reaches out and he's just messing with her, she'll be even more humiliated, but if she doesn't, she'll just seem like a coward.
With a serious face she reaches out and shakes his hand, his smile widening. There was something familiar about him, but she just couldn't put her finger on it. Isabelle was now smiling and as Alec lets go of Clary's hand, she speaks up.
"And that is Clary", she smiles brightly. Someone huffs exaggeratedly and they all turn to see Jace walking over to Isabelle's bed before throwing himself on it.
"Are you all done playing meet and greet or shall I leave? It's getting quite boring." He speaks up, and now that she wasn't so embarrassed, Clary realizes he also has an accent, noting they must all come from the same place.
"You're an ass", Isabelle smirks and swats him playfully. Alec sits down on the bed next to her and hugs her tightly. She wraps her arms around him too, whispering something to him. Clary turns away and continues unpacking, her face still flushed in embarrassment. She was mad, she was supposed to get a roommate who was just like her; not a pretty girl who wore expensive clothes, who had a friend who was confusing her, and another one which was a complete dick.
As she walks into the closet to put her clothes away, she makes sure not to glance back when she hears them start to whisper. Clary frowns, straining to try and make out what they were saying, but it comes to no use. They were talking too quietly and their accents weren't really helping; all she could make out was that it seemed as if they were arguing now. She attempts to not let it bother her, though she feels as if they're talking about her.
As soon as she walks out of the closet they stop and look at her, confirming her earlier suspicions. She turns away, heading to her side of the room and continues to unpack, scowling. She was confused, wondering why'd Isabelle and Alec had warmed up to her if they were going to talk behind her back.
"Would you like to come to a party tonight, with us?", Isabelle's voice sounds rushed and is followed by Jace sighing, demonstrating just how annoyed he was that she'd asked. Clary's lips part in realization, now understanding the topic they'd been arguing over.
Taking a deep breath she turns around to look at them; Alec was watching her intently, Isabelle looked nervous, and Jace looked slightly mad.
Knitting her eyebrows, she shakes her head no, "I really don't think that's a good idea." Alec and Isabelle frown in unison but Jace looks relieved, throwing himself back on the bed.
"Come on, it'll be fun! I promise that we'll come back early, yeah?", Isabelle begs, pouting.
Clary chews on her lip, not even sure why she was debating the answer. She's about to deny again when Jace speaks up, once again interrupting her.
"You know what? You should come... It'll be fun." He simply states with a strange look in his eyes. Clary notes that he almost looked, dare she say, mischievous. She watches him carefully, he simply shrugs with a smirk on his face.
Clary opens her mouth to deny once again, but stops herself. Isabelle was still pouting and the boys were watching her every move, she didn't want to look like a coward. She groans before nodding her head as if to show surrender. Isabelle and Alec beam at her, Jace's smirk only growing. Clary glares at Jace, not liking the way he'd decided to change his mind out of nowhere. He simply gives her a daring look and turns away from her to talk with Isabelle and Alec.
Clary tunes them out for the remainder of their little visit, only nodding when Alec explained that he'd come pick them up later for the party. Isabelle closes the door once they leave and looks at Clary, nervous once again.
"I'm sorry about that... I haven't really seen either of them in a while." She smiles sheepishly.
"You don't need to apologize for anything." Clary offers a warm smile, wondering what the hell she'd gotten herself into.
