Izzy POV
I was so happy that the weekend was finally here. The last few days were beyond boring. I was finally starting to see what Clary meant when she talked about how much high school sucked. Alec and Clary decided to go shopping for groceries while Jace and I stayed home to clean up the apartment.
Which meant that I cleaned the apartment while Jace watched Star Wars.
"Hey did you just hear that?" Jace asked me coming into the living room.
"Hear what?" I asked as I shut off the tv.
"It just kind of sounded like some kind of commotion is happening downstairs." He responded.
"Maybe, we should check it out." I said getting up from my spot on the couch.
"Yeah." Jace responded putting his shoes on. I grabbed a light jacket in case we had to go outside. We got in the elevator and I started to hear what Jace was talking about. When I realized what it was, I went to push the open button on the elevator to go back to the apartment.
"Iz...what are you doing?" Jace asked.
"Jace...its demons and I forgot my whip." I responded walking faster. Jace started to walk alongside me. We went inside and I got my whip while Jace grabbed his stele since he'd forgotten it in his hurry. After that we quickly headed back to the elevator.
"The sound is probably from the parking garage." Jace said as he pressed the button to go to the garage. I just nodded and began waiting impatiently for the elevator to get there. Once it opened we quickly ran out and then Jace remembered he had forgotten the key that opened the garage door. "Should I kick down the door or go get the key?" Jace asked even though he and I both knew he was going to kick down the door. I just nodded and he did just that. I made a mental note to create an excuse about that later to tell the manager when he saw the security footage.
"You take that side and I'll take this one, yell if you need me." Jace said. I nodded in response. Last time there was a demon attack only Clary and Alec had been there, meaning that I hadn't fought any demons since early September. I quickly fought off the demons near me as I ran through the parking garage. After defeating 6 or 7 of them it didn't seem like there were any others in the area.
"Hello? You're standing in my parking spot." A woman called out from her car window.
"Oh sorry." I responded quickly as I walked away. I went through the door that Jace had kicked down and looked around for him on the other side. 4 elderly people came out of the elevator and just stared at me and the door.
"Goodness sake, what happened here?" A man asked me.
"Oh um I don't know. It was like this when I showed up." I responded looking at the ground.
"Kids these days." Someone said under their breath while walking past me. The woman who I was in the parking spot of earlier looked at me then the door then me again and just shook her head and headed to the elevator.
"IZZY!" I heard Jace scream from about 20 feet away. I quickly rushed to him and helped him fight off this one particularly difficult demon. After defeating all of them we were so tired that we just leaned against the wall without saying anything to each other. After about 10 minutes we saw Alec and Clary in the car heading home.
"Great." Jace responded under his breath. Alec saw us and told us to get in.
"Demons?" Clary asked turning around in the passenger seat. Jace and I just nodded. After Alec parked the car we helped them carry the groceries.
"Don't say anything about the door." Jace whispered to me. It was useless though because as soon as Alec and Clary saw the door they knew what had gone down immediately.
"Jace..." Alec said through gritted teeth. Clary, Jace and I just burst out laughing. "Can't deal with you guys sometimes." Alec murmured shaking his head. Once we got into the apartment Alec started his 30 minute lecture for Jace and why kicking down doors was a bad idea. During lunch we got a knock on the door. Jace stood up to go answer it.
"Yeah no. I'll answer. I don't want you to kick that one down." Alec said as he got up to answer it.
"I'm never going to hear the end of that am I?" Jace asked.
"Nope." Clary and I responded in usion.
"Izzy, Jace." Alec called out from the hallway. We stood up to go see what he wanted and saw the manager at the front door. The guy–his name was John–lead us to his office where we had a long chat about the door. Jace and I tried our best to defuse the situation. Luckily the guy was just surprised and not angry like we had initially thought but we still had to pay the repair fees. Alec refused to help us pay and it resulted in Jace and I becoming broke.
We were watching tv in the living room when Alec got a call from the institute. "Alright so me and either Jace or Izzy have to go to a meeting with the clave to talk about the demons." Alec said after getting off of the 45 minute call. After talking about it for a bit we decided on Jace. Around 5pm Alec and Jace headed to the institute leaving Clary and I at home.
