Maybe being your friend is a good thing
An: this is my new story. I hope you like it. It's about Clary all of the sudden becomes friends with Isabelle after an accident she have in school. But she is a little confused as to why Isabelle wants to be friends with her. And don't worry its mostly a Clace story. With some Malec and Sizzy in it. also i have tried my best to write this in a diffrent way then I usually does. and i dont own anything.
"I can't believe that you did that" said my best friend Simon when we walked out of history class. Me and Simon have known each other since we were in kindergarten. He asked me to be friends with him and I said yes, and the rest is history. If only making friends in our age was as easy.
"what did I do exactly." I asked just to make him say it again.
"come on it happened five minutes ago. But fine I will be more specific as you can do a lot of different dumb things. I can't believe that you agreed to go to the lightwood house to study. You do know who lives there right." Simon said. And I rolled my eyes and said, "yes I do know who lives there but Isabelle is my partner in history, and we need to make a project of the rise and fall of the berlin wall." I said as we stopped outside my locker getting ready to go to next class that is sports for me and maths for Simon.
"why can't you just study in school like I am with my partner. And why did you pick that subject." Simon said. I closed my locker and we walked to Simon's locker.
"well, I don't want to spend all night in school, working on a history project. and it was either that or a paper on all the presidents of the united states of America. And I don't know enough about them to make a whole paper on them." I said. And Simon closed his locker and we continued walking toward his classroom.
"well, all right then but please don't do anything stupid." Simon said. And I rolled my eyes again.
"like what make another friend or perhaps don't find my way back home like I did when we went to see that movie. And I had to call my uncle Luke to take me home." I said.
"no, I didn't mean it like that I just don't want you to get hurt. But I must go in and you can't be late again." Simon said and gave me a quick hug and walked into his classroom. And I took a quick pick at the clock and realise that I had around five minutes to make it to the gym and get changed. So, I had to make a run for it.
I got there with only two minutes to spare to get dressed so I quickly changed and walked into the gym. "great you are all here well today we are going to play a quick run before or game of dodgeball. So, ten laps around the gym and then I will pick the team captains." said our gym teacher Mr Buttons and blew his whistle that indicated that we needed to get started.
I took me around five minutes to finish my laps which is average but there were some people after me. about two minutes later all the people was done with there laps and we heard the whistle and Mr Buttons started talking "great now that you are done, I will pick the captains. On the first team we have Jace Herondale and on the other team we have Maia Roberts." Both are good athletes first is Jace Herondale who is the team captain of the football/soccer team. And then we have Maia Roberts who is on the cheerleading team with Isabelle, and she is also on the gymnastic team. So, to be on any of the team would be good.
"Jace, you pick first." Said Mr Buttons. But there is no way I will be picked first. "I pick Oliver brown." Jace said. And of course, he picks on of his teammates.
"I pick Hanna Nuland." Maia said. And she picked a girl on the gymnastic team. "Alec lightwood." Said Jace aka his best friend and Isabelle's older brother also on his team.
"Jordan kyle," said Maia. Her boyfriend and on the soccer team. "Kaelie heart" his fling or girlfriend I honestly don't care to know. Also, on the cheerleading team one of the reasons I didn't get to even addition.
"Clary Fairchild" said Maia. And that would be me. we are sort of friends but not really. So, I walked over to her and saw the look Jace gave us.
"are you trying to lose. Because then I will start picking worse people. But anyways I pick Evan Erickson" said Jace and yup his comment hurt until Maia said
"nope but she is small, and I can imagine that she is good at hiding. And I pick Sebastian Verlac" I gave her a smile. She picked another soccer player. "whatever next up is Jonathan Fairchild." My twin brother who happens to be best friends with Jace and on the soccer team where are all the non-sports players.
"and finally, we have Amanda Gordon" the last one is also on the gymnast team. How come I am the only person in this class that don't have a big sport. Just some karate and judo and some ballet for the balance. They actually don't know what they are up against if only I have any kind of throwing ability.
"great we can finally start. So here are the basic rules if you get hit by a ball you are out and if you catch the ball the other person is out. No hits in the head or the person who throws it is out. You understand." Said Mr Buttons we all nodded.
"great team number one stand on that side and the other team stand on that side. Great when I whistle you may start." Mr buttons continued. And we all walked to the side that he had pointed us at. Mr Buttons put on some music and the then blew his whistle and we all started running towards the balls in the middle and I managed to grab one. Jace had also grabbed a ball and was right in front of me and said,
"Oh, little Clary have a ball in her hand what are you about to do with it." He throws the ball at me the same second, he stops talking and I manage to push it away with my ball.
Around five minutes later there was only four of us left. Me and Hanna on my side and Jace and Evan on their side. And all through the game Jace have tried to get me out but he hasn't managed to hit me yet. "come on Clary just give up we all know you can't win." Said Jace.
"shut up Herondale. You can do this Clary." Said Maia from the side-line. I decided to just ignore them both so Jace decided to get Hanna out first, but he wasn't so lucky, and she had just caught the ball Evan throw at her and got him out first. So, she pushed away the ball and tried to hit Jace with it but missed and Jace ended up with two balls in his hands and threw both at Hanna and she couldn't dodge them both, so she was out, and I had around five balls on my side.
"and then it was only two." I said and had a smug smile on my lips.
"and what do you plan on doing princess. Throw them at me we both now that you will miss. Even your own brother is cheering on me." Jace said. I tried to throw a ball at him, but I misses.
"that might be true but the only reason he does that is because he is on your team, and he wants to win." I said and dodged the ball he just threw by doing a cartwheel.
"are you showing of now red." Jace said, and I decided to throw a lot of them at the same time. I must hit him at least one of the times. But no not a single on of them hits him.
"thanks for the win red" said Jace. He throws at least three balls at me at the same time. But I managed to get hit in the head when I tried to dodge on of them. And Mr Buttons blew his whistle and said,
"the second team won." I continued to lay on the floor when I saw Maia.
"we won why aren't you celebrating," said Maia.
"I think I hit my head when my head hit the floor. I think I might be bleeding. Can you check please" I said and tried to sit back up. But felt dizzy so I laid back down.
"yup you are bleeding there is a blood pool behind your head. I saw it when you sat up." Maia said. "are you sure." I said.
"yes, I will go get Mr Buttons" Maia said and walked away. And I saw here running up to the teacher and they both hurried back, and Mr Buttons said, "how are you feeling Clary."
"dizzy and I think I might vomit if I try to stand up." I said.
"can somebody take Clary to the nurse." Mr Buttons said. And I think my brother haven't notice that I was on the floor because he hurried over to me and said
"what happened. Do I need to call mom or dad? and I will take her to the nurse."
"well, your friend threw the ball so hard that she fell down and hit her head. And she is bleeding very badly from her head, so we need someone to carry her to the nurse's room." And that is when I fainted
I woke up some time later from the sound of my parents in the room. So, I open my eyes and saw that I was in a very white room. So, either I was dead, or this was the hospital I guessed on the second on. "oh, Clary you are awake." said mom.
"hey mom sorry for taking you out of work for this" I said not wanting her to get angry at me.
"don't be ridiculous you could have died. And besides, I was nearby so it was nothing. And I want to thank your brother and his friend for taking you here instead of the nurse in your school." Mom said and hugged me.
"who took me here I don't remember a thing after I feel to the floor." I said. "well, I said your brother and then this guy named Sebastian and Jace that nice boy that are always hanging out with your brother at our house." Said mom. And I thought I might puke at the thought of Jace helping me and being a nice boy.
"mom where is dad" I said. Trying to get the subject away from my accident. "well, he said that he needed to speak to your brother and his friends about something. He went to them just as you woke up. Clary, I need to talk to you about a thing," said mom. "all right what you want to talk about." I said and tried to sit up in the bed, but it only made my head hurt even more.
"wait let me help you." Said mom. She pushed a button that made my bed go up to a sitting position.
"well, me and your father are going to start working a little more than we already do. So, we thought that maybe you and your brother want to stay at home like you do but with a little more freedom." Said mom.
I was a little confused by that statement but said "sure I like being home with Jon." Mom smiled at me when I said that.
"that's great honey. So, it is your birthday in a week, and we aren't home then so we thought that we would give you your birthday gift today after we gets home. We planned to surprise you but now that we are already here. And you are in the hospital. We thought we would go out for dinner tomorrow night, and you can bring all your friends if you want. We are also planning to have a small party. So, what do you think?" Said mom.
"that sound great mom but when can I go home. I have a big project that I need to do." I said.
"well, the doctor said that you may go home after they do a control check before and the nurse said she would be right here." Said mom. And just as she said that a woman stepped inside the room and said
"hello, Clarissa Fairchild, I am your doctor and I just need to make sure that there hasn't been any damage to your brain. So, what I am going to do I take you with me to the CT scan to cheek for any kind of damaged or leaks. all you need to do is lay there." I hate being called Clarissa. No one is saying that ever except for my dad. when I see him. But I just nodded, and she pushed the button and maid the bed goes back to normal, and she pointed to one of the guys that I didn't even see.
"can you please prep miss Fairchild for the CT scan" she said and walked out of the room again.
To say that the CT scan is fun is like saying getting stabbed in the eyes doesn't hurt. Just utterly wrong. I laid there for what feels like an eternity and when I got back to my room. There was a lot of people there and a bunch of get-well cards, candy, and some stuffed animals.
"so, can you go back home yet." Asked my brother. And I looked over to the doctor and she said "well first I need to see if Clarissa can walk yet. But the CT scan looked normal. So, there shouldn't be a problem. and I got to say what a lovely bunch of people there are here to support a friend." I looked at all the people around me and some I knew but others were mostly Jon's friends. I took the doctors hand and she helped me down the bed and I took one step and then another.
"great I just need for one of the guardians to sign her out and then you may go home. But I recommend checking on her at least every two hours to make sure that she is all right." The doctor said as I sat down on the bed yet again.
"I can go get your parents Clary." Isabelle said. I haven't even noticed that she was even here.
"thank you Isabelle and I am sorry our project was held back." I said.
"no problem we can always work on that tomorrow or the rest of the week." Isabelle said and then she walked away. To find my parents, I guess.
"well, when your parents are back just push that button and I will be right back." The doctor said. I nodded and laid back down on the bed.
"why are all your friends here." I asked Jon. "they all were worried when you were sent off to the hospital." Jon said. I cant help but noticed that the one who put me here isn't even here.
"and I appreciate it all. But I am not used to the attention." I said and closed my eyes. It didn't take long until Isabelle was back with my parents. Or well I assumed it was both of them as I still had my eyes closed.
"Thank god that you are okay." I heard my dad said. I opened my eyes and could see my dad standing there alongside with my mom, Isabelle and Jace.
"thank you, Isabelle, for getting us. And thank you Jace for being such a good company." Mom said. of course, it would just be a happy dream that Jace wouldn't be here.
"well, I am ready to get out of here." I said and sat up. But my head was still spinning a little, but I didn't care.
"here are some cloths you can put on." Isabelle said. and gave me some cloths. I nodded and walked into the bathroom where I could finally be alone for some time. The cloths Isabelle have given me was just a pair of blue jeans along with a hoody. But I cant help but notice that neither of them is my cloths. I guess my parents didn't have time to get some of my cloths either.
I walked out where most people have left. Which I am grateful for. but Isabelle, Jace, Alec and Sebastian were still here. "see I told you my old cloths would fit her." Isabelle told Jon. When she saw me. "and how old was you when you last had that on." My mom asked.
"when I was eleven, I think." Isabelle said. Oh, great I have the body of an eleven-year-old. "can I go home yet?" I asked.
"yes, the doctor was just here and told us we can go home. But we have to keep an eye on you." Dad said. I nodded and looked for my bag. "what are you looking for." Alec asked.
"my bag. Maybe I left it at school." I said. "yes, I think I saw simon walking around with that." Sebastian said. I wonder why simon haven't even called or stopped by. And speaking about my phone where is it. Great one more thing I have lost. "okay thanks. Then we can leave." I said. and us all left.
My head is still hurting when I got home and sat down on the sofa. And I still feels so tired that I fall asleep right there on the sofa.
