Simon woke up before Izzy did and he smiled when he saw they were still holding hands. He let go and decided to write her a note so she knew where he was. He thought for a second then wrote:
Izzy
Going to Java Jone's to meet the band
See you when I get back
Love From
Simon
Simon re read the note and put it on the pillow where his head had been. He walked back to his own room at the Institute and changed his clothes. He looked at the time on his phone, it was 10:am.
Great he still had an hour before he had to be at the coffee shop. When he was all ready he headed to the entrance of the institute so he could walk over to Java Jone's. When he arrived at the elevator he found Jace standing waiting for it.
"Morning" Simon said as he approached.
"Morning" Jace replied.
"Where you going?" Simon asked. He couldn't see Clary anywhere.
"Going to get breakfast for me and the others, you know what Izzys cooking's like" Jace answered him. Simon laughed.
"Yeah" he said agreeing, Izzy was a really bad cook.
"You wanna come for coffee first, I'm meeting with the band and you would be welcome to join us." Simon said being polite.
"Yeah, Izzy and Clary are still asleep so they won't mind waiting a little longer" Jace replied as the elevator arrived. They stepped in and went down to the street. When they arrived at Java's the band were already sitting in one of the window booths. Jace and Simon walked over.
"Hi guys, I brought Jace along. Hope you don't mind" Simon said as they went and joined Eric, Matt and Kirk in the booth.
"Nah dude, its cool. Hey Jace" Matt said.
"Hi" Jace replied. He looked a little awkward sitting with them. He only had friends who were either shadowhunters or downworlders, he didn't really know any mundanes.
"So the matter of the band..." Eric started after they had ordered themselves coffee. The coffee came almost instantly and they continued the conversation.
"Whats the band actually called now?" Simon asked them. He hadn't seen them in ages, he had been to busy with shadowhunter buisness.
"Well it's still The Mortal Instruments" Kirk said taking a sip of his coffee.
"Really?" Jace asked looking at Simon. Simon grinned
"Yeah it's one of the things I remembered" he said and the rest of the band just looked confused.
"Well, I think we should keep that name" Eric said. They all agreed and started out sorting when they would practice.
"I can practice any time" Simon said and the others nodded.
"Why not a Thursday at 3:00" Kirk said.
"School ends at 2:00 so that's a good time" Matt pointed out.
"Good idea, and I can do any time" Simon said. They kept talking about when they would next meet up and when the first practice would be. Jace was just sat there drinking his coffee when Simon had an idea.
"Hey Jace, you play piano right?" Simon asked making sure only Jace could hear him. The rest of the band were just talking about a new music shop in the city.
"Umm, yeah. Why?" Jace asked sounding curious.
"You should join the band" Simon suggested. Jace took a minute until he replied to this.
"What makes you think I would want to?" He asked raising an eyebrow.
"Well, you don't really know anyone except shadowhunters and downworlders and I thought you might want a break from all the training" Simon said. Surprisingly Jace said
"Yeah that would be cool" Simon grinned and asked the rest of the band.
"Guys, can Jace join the band. He's good at piano" the others looked at Simon and Jace then exchanged a few whispers.
"Don't see why not, we could use someone on keys" Eric said as the rest of the band nodded.
"Cool" Jace said then he got his phone out of his pocket and read a text. When he put it away he said
"We need to go Simon, Izzy and Clary are complaining about being hungry and we need to get there before Izzy tries anything" Simon nodded.
"Bye guys" Simon said as the two of them stood up.
"Bye see you Thursday" Matt said as they left the shop.
"So welcome to the band" Simon said to Jace. Jace smiled
"Glad I came now" He said as they walked over to Takis. They ordered coffee and hot chocolate for them all to chose from and they got muffins and doughnuts. When they had the food they walked back to the institute and were greeted by Clary and Izzy who both looked annoyed.
"Finally" Clary sighed taking a bag of food off Simon.
"We were waiting ages" Izzy said. They went into the dining room and spread breakfast over the table although now it was more like lunch since it was 12:30.
"Jace joined the band" Simon announced.
"Cool" Clary said taking a bite out of a blueberry muffin. They sat in silence for a while, demolishing all of the food.
"So how long have you been awake?" Jace asked.
"Oh, about an hour" Izzy said and Clary nodded.
"What you doing this afternoon?" Simon asked as he took one last sip of hot chocolate.
"I need to go shopping and your coming with me" Izzy said looking over at Simon. He groaned
"Can't Clary go with you? She would be a better shopping companion than me" He said. "No Clary can't" Jace said as Clary looked over at Simon with a look that said No use trying to get out of it. Simon sighed.
"Fine then, I'll go" he said.
"Yay, see you in a minute" Izzy exclaimed running to her room to pick up what she needed.
"Bye Simon, have fun shopping!" Clary said with a laugh as her and Jace left the room hand in hand. Simon rolled his eyes and walked to the elevator where he met Izzy. They pressed the button and waited for the elevator to arrive.
