A/N: It's finally time for the homecoming game! Hope you all like it!
Clary:
It was two hours before the game started and the football team seemed nervous and pumped at the same time. I had my cheer uniform on and so did the rest of the squad. We were in the field doing some stretches while the players were doing some suicide runs on the field. I looked over and saw that Jace was staring at me and looked away from him. I started blushing so I went and sat on the ground to calm myself down. I kept thinking about the night before when I was teaching Jace how to ride Stephen better.
"Okay Jace, the one thing you want to know about riding is to never have your horse know that you are afraid of anything. And you have to know what you are doing. Let me show you." I told Jace.
I hopped down from Adele and swung myself up onto Stephen and turned him onto the track. I raced him down the track and turned him around to go back. He was approaching Jace fast so I pulled the reigns and stopped him before he could run him over. Stephen rose to his hind legs and started kicking his legs. I fell off of his back and he raced off into the grass and over the hill. Stephen stopped at the hill and stomped one of his hills. Jace raced over to me and helped me up.
"Clary, are you okay? I've never seen Stephen do that with anyone, I honestly don't know what's wrong with him." Jace said.
"I'm fine, he was just startled by the abrupt stop and wasn't used to it."
"I'm glad you're okay." He said pulling me into him.
I let myself melt into his touch and when I looked up I realized our faces were really close to each other. He started to lean downwards towards me, so I broke free of him and ran over to where Adele was waiting. I swung onto her back and urged her to go back to the stables. I put her back into her stall and walked back to the house and went back into my room.
I kept thinking about what would have happened if I hadn't run away. I didn't know how I felt about Jace or Sebastian for that matter, but I figured that I was going to find out tonight. Aline called me over so we could go over the schedule for tonight. She looked at me to see if it was a good schedule and I nodded and gave her a thumbs up. I looked up and saw that the stands were crowded on both sides of the field with fans. The horns played signaling that the game was about to begin. I ran over to go onto one of the sides where the Blue jays would come in between us from the locker room. I heard a loud whoop and saw Jace followed by the rest of the football field tear through the banner we had made for them. They ran onto the field and went into a circle to do their pre-game ritual. We all went to the side of the field were our school was and started to pep the crowd up. The game had started and we were winning by four touchdowns when the halftime buzzer rang. The cheerleaders and I ran onto the field to the routine we practiced to perfection. Izzy ran up to the booth in the stands and told one of the announcers to play our designated songs for this routine. She came back in time just as 3 by Britney Spears started to play. We all started to dance and do flips here and there. Izzy and Magnus came near me and I was hoisted onto their hands as I did a scorpion and a flip in the air. I landed back on the ground and did the ground work in time. When the middle of the song came I went in the middle of the circle and did a little dance the entire squad and I came up with. Magnus and Izzy got ready as I came behind them so I could do my flip and I was in the air and doing my flips. I was about to do my twists when I heard screams and thuds and looked down to see that one of the Demon football players had run onto the field wearing their water jug, and had run into our team. I was still high in the air and I started to fall back to the ground. I tried to roll into a ball and I fell into two strong arms. I looked up and saw Jace holding and looking at me with concern. I gave a sigh of relief and heard someone yell my name. Johnathon appeared behind Jace and gave a sigh as well when he saw I was safe.
"Oh my gosh, I'm so glad you're okay. We were coming out of the locker room and heard screams coming from the field. We all ran out of the locker room and I saw the team on the ground while Jace ran out onto the field because he saw you falling out of the sky. I came running as soon as you fell into his arms. Yo guys, get that douche in the jug and take him to his own damn side!" Johnathon said.
"I'm fine Johnathon, thanks for saving me Jace, I owe you one. Let me see if the rest of the squad is okay." I said climbing out of his arms.
I checked with the girls and guys and they all said they were fine, just a few bruises here and there. We all went back to the sidelines and the crowd cheered at us for getting up and moving. The announcer told us that number 32 of the Demons would not be playing for the rest of the game. The rest of the game Jace and Johnathon were playing like demons, running so quickly you couldn't see them, catching impossible thorws and getting more touchdowns in one inning than before. The game ended with the Demons utterly defeated and the Blue jays were victorious. The boys herded Jace and johnathon onto their shoulders and into the locker room. The cheerleaders and I headed to the concession stands to get some refreshments before we would head home. I was drinking a soda when I felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned and saw Sebastian standing behind me wearing his dirty uniform and helmet.
"Hey, what's up?" I asked him.
"I was just wondering if you were okay after that fall, it looked pretty nasty." He said, ruffling his hand through his hair.
"Oh, I'm fine; Jace caught me before anything bad could've happened. I didn't see you run onto the field but I figured you were busy in the locker room."
"I was doing something in the locker room, but I came when I heard that you fell from the sky, so I thought I would see what you looked like after you left heaven."
"That has to be the cheesiest thing I have ever heard a guy say to me."
"Eh, I guess I'm a cheesy guy, so I'll see you tonight at the party?"
"Don't worry I haven't forgot about our date, wear something nice and not this dirty uniform."
"Alright, I'll see you later Clary."
I looked away and saw that Aline was looking at Sebastian weirdly but looked away when she saw me staring. Izzy came up to me and I saw that Simon had his arm around her.
"Okay Clary, its time to go home and get you ready for your date!" she said excitedly.
I cringed at the thought of sitting in my bathroom while Izzy prepped me up and got herself ready in a few minutes. She grabbed my arm and pulled me to her Mercedes that she had drove to the school this morning and literally pushed me into the seat while Simon hopped in back. I had to remind Izzy every five minutes to stop bouncing or we would get into a car accident and then I couldn't go on my date with Sebastian. We made it in one piece to my house and Simon went to wait for us to get ready in the den. I was pushed in my room and saw a garment bag hanging on my closet door. Izzy rushed into the bathroom and came back out with about a million appliances. I closed my eyes and waited for the torture to end.
"Okay, I have now beautified you so go in the bathroom and look at my expertise." She beamed at me.
I got up and went to the bathroom to see large green eyes looking at me. My hair was curled so that every step I took made it bounce and my eyes had a little smoky look to it to make it seem as I came from the shadows. My skin looked like cream and roses with blush around my cheeks. I heard the zip of the garment bag and watched as Izzy entered the bathroom and set the clothes on the counter for me to change into. She left and I slipped the long green dress shirt over my head which stopped mid-thigh along with the ankle length black leggings. I walked out of the bathroom and saw that there was some black converse on the floor next to green high heels. And when I say high heels, I mean heels that are about 8 inches tall. I silently took the heels and put them in the closet and slipped the converse on before Izzy would know. I stepped into the hall and saw that Izzy was clad in skinny jeans, a white shirt with a ruffled bottom, and white high heels.
"Where are your shoes?" she said.
"Last time I checked Iz, these are shoes. Now, if you're talking about those walking death machines, they are back in the closet." I said.
"You are no fun, I'm getting them and you will be wearing them tonight." She said as she went back into my room.
I sighed and made my way down to the den while Isabelle retrieved the shoes. Simon was sitting on one of the Lazy boys watching one of the basketball games. I flopped down on the couch and watched as his eyes popped when he took in my appearance. I raised my hand before he could say anything.
"Your girlfriend and my best friend got to me and I regret ever letting her take control of my outfit for tonight." I said.
"You won't regret it when you see Jace's and Sebastian's eyes pop at the party tonight." Isabelle said coming into the den.
"Jace? Why Jace, I thought you liked Jace?" Simon asked.
"Simon, it's nothing you need to worry about yet, and don't say anything about what you just heard." Izzy said.
"Izzy! You swore not to tell anyone what happened." I said.
"I technically did not tell anyone, I barely even told Simon, now let's get to the party before Sebastian think you stood him up!"
I groaned and got up while Simon stood behind me and reached for Izzy's hand. We walked to my Ferrari and climbed in while I drove to jace's address. We arrived to see that it was already fairly crowded and I could hear the music already. We all got out and Simon hung one arm off of me and Izzy as we approached the house. We entered the house and saw a bunch of teenagers moving to the music.
"Well, this seems like it's going to be a fun night." I said.
