Jace was slowly coming back to consciousness. He was trying to decide whether he got hit by a train or was he under a collapsed building. His whole body felt like it was in pain.
He was trying to open his eyes to see the damage but he could hear voices, so he decided to listen and hope that he could find out what happened.
"-did Isabelle mean when she said you dropped him down the stairs?" Said a familiar feminine voice. He couldn't put a name to the voice though.
"I may have lost my grip on the mundie when I was on top of the stairs." Said a not as familiar voice, but Jace could swear he heard it before.
"Alec! It's bad enough he had demon poison in him-" said the feminine voice, giving a name to her companion.
Now he remembered something. Alec was the guy at the club and the other voice sounded like it was the red-head, Clary. Why was he unconscious and around those psychopaths?
"I wasn't sure if you were actually concerned about his life seeing as you marked him!"
"He was going to die without it and his parents-"
"We don't know if they're his parents!"
"Well then it's very coincidental that his parents have the same name as them!"
"It could happen! Who knows?"
"What is your problem?"
Jace finally opened his eyes and was looking clouds and angels. What the hell happened last night?
"Oh great. It's up." Said the male voice again.
Jace followed the voice and looked right at Alec and Clary who were staring at him.
"Don't sound so happy." Jace said, his voice sounding hoarse and tired.
Alec glared at him before turning in his spot and walking towards a door. "I'm going to tell Hodge he's awake." He said before slamming the door shut.
Clary sighed but didn't say anything.
"What's his problem?" Jace asked.
"When I find out, you'll be the first to know." Clary said.
"O-kay…what am I doing here? Where am I?"
"You're in the infirmary at the institute. You've been unconscious for two days."
When she said the institute, he could have sworn he heard it before.
'There is demon poison flowing through you. I need you to stay awake so I can get you back to the institute.-'
He suddenly remembered everything.
Running through the park after a fight with his parents.
Clary tripping him.
The frantic phone call from his father.
The complete mess of his home.
The goons and the strange monster.
Clary saving his life.
"You said I had demon poison. What does that mean?"
"The demon you tried to kill with a kitchen knife bit you. Its venom was flowing through you. You collapsed when I was bringing you through the portal and you were close to dying."
"Then what happened?" Jace could tell there was more to the story since Clary was biting her lip.
"I got you to the foyer, but I knew that you would be dead by the time you got here, so I drew a rune on your arm."
Jace looked down at the arm she had pointed to, and sure enough there was a strange mark on it.
"Why do you look so nervous when you say that?"
"Because if you were a mundane, it would have killed you or turned you into a forsaken."
Jace was silent for a minute before he found his voice. "So…you must have known somehow that it wouldn't kill me, right?"
"Well, I saw it that you were going to die if I didn't do it, and I was pretty sure it wouldn't kill you since you had two shadowhunters at your apartment along with a demon."
"You could have killed me!"
"But I saved you!"
"After taking a chance that could have killed me!"
"If I didn't do it, you would be dead right now!"
Jace didn't know how to respond to that. He tried to sit up, but his whole body protested. "Was I hit by a train?"
Clary laughed, it sounded like tinkling bells. "No, after I drew the rune, Alec and Isabelle found us and I told him to carry you the rest of the way. I went to get Hodge and Isabelle told me about an hour ago that you might have brain damage when you woke up because Alec dropped you down a flight of stairs."
"Accidentally?" Jace asked, trying to keep his annoyance to a minimum.
"As far as I know."
Jace glared at nothing in particular, then tried sitting up once more. He was about to collapse when Clary rushed over and helped him sit up.
Jace caught her scent. He really wanted to inhale more of it. She smelled of strawberries and honeysuckle. Unfortunately, she stepped away from him as soon as he was sitting.
Jace became aware that he was shirtless and looking under the blanket, he was only wearing his boxers.
"Um, out of curiosity, what happened to my clothes?"
"They were covered in blood and there was some demon blood splattered on them."
"Okay, can I get them back?"
"No…"
"Why not?"
"I burned them."
"What?!"
"It was completely precautionary."
"So I have no clothes? Wait, who undressed me?" Clary blushed
"Not exactly. Alec was willing to give you some of his." She threw him material. Unravelling them, he could tell that the black pants were too long and the shirt was too small.
"Shoes?"
"Alec wasn't as willing to give you shoes, but it's a good thing you're the same size as Robert, foot wise. So here." Clary passed him black leather working boots.
"Thank, but you never answered my question about who undressed me." Jace couldn't help but smirk as the red heads face turned crimson. "I know my body is incredible, but this has to be the first time a girl ever undressed me while I was unconscious."
"Shut up and get dressed. I'll wait outside and I'll show you to Hodge." Clary said before leaving through the door.
Jace couldn't help the grin on his face as he carefully pulled back the covers and pulled on the clothes Clary threw him.
He didn't need to roll the pants, but the shirt was short enough that you could see a part of stomach. Clary was right when she said the shoes would fit him, but that made him wonder would this 'Robert' have been closer to his size in clothes?
Checking to see if he forgot anything else, he walked to the door to meet Clary.
Please let me know what you think!
I will try to update soon!
Till next time ~Maraudergirl68448
