Izzy POV
"Alec hurry up, we don't have all day." I said for the twentieth time since we got to the mall.
"I didn't even want to be here, Izzy."
"I know but your here so deal with it." I replied, annoyed with Alec.
"You do know that Alec probably won't buy anything, right?" Clary whispered to me.
"Don't worry I'll make him." I reply.
Alec dragged his feet the whole way to Hollister.
"What even is that?" Alec asked pointing to a shirt I had held up to him.
"It's a shirt Alec, lots of mundane guys wear them."
"It's green, bright green. I don't wear green–especially bright green." Alec replied rolling his eyes.
"Oh come on, just try it on." I said throwing the shirt at him.
"Fine." Alec replied gritting his teeth.
"It looks...great." Jace said trying not to laugh.
"Jace…" I warned under my breath.
"You know what? It's really not that bad." Clary said.
"Like I'm taking fashion advice from the orange one." Alec replied going back into the change room.
"What did you expect?" Jace said turning to me. After Alec went back, I turned to Clary.
"Come on Clary, you're becoming like Alec." I said trying to get Clary to try on a shirt.
"Iz...I'm not wearing that." She replied.
"What's wrong with it?" I asked.
"Everything.." she replied getting mad at me.
Why are they all so bad at trying on clothes, gosh. At least Jace tried on like 3 things.
"Izzy you're not buying that." Alec said sternly pointing to a shirt I had picked out.
"You're not my father Alec, I am my own adult." I replied.
"Nope." Alec said taking the shirt from me.
"Fine." I said annoyed with him. He's always so protective, it gets on my nerves sometimes.
"Izzy can we finally leave?" Alec asked for probably the tenth time.
"Hold on, you haven't bought anything." I said.
"I have plenty of clothing at home." He replied.
"Alec, come on, it's all black and very dark grey. Those are funeral colours for mundanes." I told him.
"You know what, Alec is right. Can we just go? We have been here for ages." Clary said.
"Thank you! For once Clary is right." Alec told me.
"You guys are terrible people to go shopping with." I said back to them.
"Great, you agree. Let's go home." Alec said.
"Fine...hold on where's Jace?" I replied.
"Oh he left like 30 minutes ago." Clary replied.
The ride home was fairly boring and not a whole lot happened.
"Why do I need all these pencils, Izzy? It's not like I'm actually going to do school work." Alec asked when we got home.
"Well we have to pretend to be students and Clary said you need a lot of pencils." I replied.
"I'm just so excited for these next crappy months." Jace said annoyed.
"Why do you guys never stop complaining?" Clary asked.
"Because it's all so annoying." Jace replies.
"Jace, I get it but we just have to deal with it." I said facing Jace.
"What's the point of this." I said, pointing some metal thing at Clary.
"It's a compass." She replied.
"Are you stupid, a compass is for seeing which way is north." Alec says.
"No, there are two types. The type Izzy asked about is for drawing circles." Clary said.
"Because teenagers actually want to draw circles." Alec said under his breath.
All this school stuff is so confusing for Alec, Jace and I. Since we didn't go to school for normal things like mundanes do. I'm actually kind of excited to go to a mundane school, couldn't say the same for Alec and Jace though.
