CHAPTER NINE
Clary's POV
Finally, it was Saturday, and the event from the last couple of days have been so exhausting, I needed a relax day, no Jace, no Luke, just Clary and Simon time. I needed it, I hardly talked to Simon anymore, I needed this. We needed this.
We had a full day planned, movies, pop corn, pizza, more movies and what ever else we could fit into the day to make it as fun as possible. All too soon there was a knock on my door telling me to get up. I laughed, telling Simon to come in. he bounded into the room and threw himself onto the bed, making it bounce. He smiled his cute geeky smile at me and he had that glint in his eye that said he was excited about today.
I'd gone to sleep later then I had planned yesterday, well this morning. I smiled thinking of last night.
As soon as I settled into bed, I heard my phone vibrate on the table. I picked it up, yawning as I said hello.
"Hey beautiful" his voice came over the phone, and suddenly I wasn't so tiered.
"Hey handsome" I said softly.
"So, what's your plans for the weekend?" he asked.
"Me and Simon have this whole gamer weekend going on, movie night tomorrow and gamer day on Sunday, I'm just lucky all my homework is done" I laughed softly into the phone.
"The dork has you for a whole weekend, and I never thought I'd ever be jealous of that guy" Jace said playfully.
"There's always a first for everything" I laughed. I sat up more fully in bed and grabbed a pillow, hugging it to my body, wishing it was Jace, not just a feather stuffed piece of material.
"So that means I'll see you Monday?" he asked, anticipation in his voice.
"In private and all the classes we have, yes, you'll see me, unless we have a tutor session I'm not aware off." I said, hoping to god that he said yes.
"Hmm, not for tomorrow, but definitely for the rest of the week." he said, and you could just picture that cocky, arrogant smirk on his face that he carried so well.
"Oh, well at least your telling me … four days in advanced?" I said questioningly, with a playful hint in my tone.
"It was the least I could do" and we fell into an easy pattern, we bantered back and forth, until Luke started shouting, telling me to 'get of the damn phone and sleep' I had to laugh and we both took about ten minutes just to say bye.
I had a cheesy grin on my face when Simon started looking at me weird. I just laughed and sat forward, shoving him lightly and he rolled and almost fell off his bed, I couldn't help but laugh as I have him the final shove with my foot and he was a mess off arms and legs as he fell to the floor. I burst out laughing and his heard appeared above the bed and he glared at me.
I could tell he was bout to pounce at me so I scrambled from the bed and sprinted to my door and down the landing. His heavy foot falls were behind me, the ankle socks I had on weren't good and kept sliding on the wood. I ran down the stairs as fast as I could, and then through the house, when I had no where to go, he backed me up to the wall in the kitchen. I giggled at the evil look in his eyes, something was digging in my back, a door handle?
I twisted it and it flew open and I spun and sprinted into the garden. He smiled and I looked at where I was heading. I giggled as I lifted my long sleeved off my head as I ran, leaving me in a camisole and shorts. I looked over my shoulder and winked at Simon and then cannon balled into the heated swimming pool.
He laughed, stepping back and shedding his top layers, leaving him in boxers and a vest. Then he launched himself into the pool and I moved out the way as he landed next to me. I laughed as I waited for him to re-surface and he came spluttering to the top. I laughed as he tried to dunk me, and failed on more then one attempt.
After a couple more minutes we both got out and padded into the bathroom and dried off, I sorted my hair out into a messy bun after towel drying it and then took my socks off and dried every non clothed surface, I threw Simon a towel and then wrapped mine around me, then very awkwardly discarded my clothes and made my way up to my room. Pulling on underwear and then a pair of jeans and a t-shirt over my head. I walked into Luke's room, got a pair of draw string pants and a t-shirt and boxers.
I skipped down the stairs and threw the clothes at Simon in the bathroom, then went into the kitchen to make us some hot chocolate to kick off the movie marathon.
First we had Lord of The Rings, all three of them, I was nearly falling back to sleep by the third one, but Simon kept me awake. I made us dinner, pizza, and then we started the star wars, starting with the older one's first, the originals, and then going to the one's that were newer. We both quoted from the films. Making fun of Yoda and Chewbacca and Darth Vader. It was so funny, we threw popcorn at each other, then tried throwing it into each others mouths and he kept hitting my nose or eyes.
Then we watched a British comedy that he had said was quite funny, called Red Dwarf, and I've never laughed so hard in my life. My sides where hurting me when we'd watched the first couple of series. It was starting to get dark, so I raided the fridge and found everything to make a couple of taco's.
I laughed as it took Simon nearly fifteen minutes just to chop a lettuce, I took over and was finished it all in under twenty minutes, I passed him the plate with a taco on it and laughed. We ate it by the table and then washed all the dishes.
I raided the freezer and got a gallon of rocky road out and two spoons. A bit of advice, watching a film and eating is not a good idea. We laughed so hard, we were both chocking one time or another on the ice cream.
After hours and hours of watching, laughing, eating, and just goofing around, we both started to yawn, but we never stopped with the films. As I felt my self drifting off I heard the phone ring.
I was under when the message picked up.
"Clary? Clary are you there? Pick up, it's Sebastian, listen, we need to talk …"

I'm sorry guys but that's where she left it, I think she planned on writing more, but never got around to it, I'm sure she'll add more as soon as she's back, but that might be a while since I don't even know the extent of her injuries.
Thanks, Helen :L
