"Are you really dating Jace?"
"You two are so cute!"
"How did you meet him?"
I heard these comments for the whole day at school. I was the number one topic. At lunch I had gotten tired of all of the stares and whispers, so I went to hide in the bathroom. After a couple of minutes, I heard the door open.
" I can't believe Jace would choose her! She's so plain and boring!" a voice said. I tried not to let it get to me.
" I know right! She's such an attention whore!" another voice said. I couldn't take it anymore. I just wanted to run away but I wasn't that weak. I unlocked my stall and calmly came out. The girls looked mortifyed. I washed my hands in no hurry. The girls were just standing there awkwardly and getting redder by the second.
" Bye!" I called out when I left. I was proud of myself for not running out and being over dramatic.
After that, the rest of the day went pretty smoothly. I had gotten used to the comments and learned to ingore them. After my classes I went to my locker and got my bag. When I closed the door, I had a heart attack. One of the girls from the bathroom was standing there.
" I'm really sorry for what I said. I didn't mean it at all! I just was jelous. I don't know if you care but I just wanted to clear the air. I hate having beef with anyone." The girl said. She actually seemed really nice.
"No problem. I get it." I said.
" I'm Seelie, by the way. I'm in your art history class" She said.
" Oh cool! I'm Clary." I said though I doubted, that she already knew that.
" See ya around?" She asked.
"Sure!" I said and left to my bike. I don't know why, but that really made my day. It really proved that something small like that can change everything. I rode the rest of the trip in a good mood.
Izzy and I were going to buy our dresses, since the AMA's would be in four days. I was wearing black jeans, a black loose button up with the first three buttons unbuttoned and the sleeves tucked. I also had my black leather jacket. my hair was in a messy bun and I was wearing Dr. Martens. I only had a bit of brow colour on.
I was going to pick Izzy up from school. Her school looked really fancy and sophisticated while out school was filled with artworks.
Izzy's schools yard was packed with people. I drove in the driveway. Everyone was staring at me. I tried not to get self-concious and remain confident. I took off my helmet and opened my hair.
" What!" "It's a girl!" I heard eveyone gasp. I walked towards the building. Then someone had the audacity to slap my ass. I grabbed his hand and flipped him over my shoulder. I had done Martial arts for seven years and had a black belt in kung fu. I still held his hand, bending it so that if i would turn it a bit more, his arm would fall out of it's socket. I also had my foot pressing his head to the gravel. We were soon surrounded by people filming us.
"That's not how you treat women, now is it?" I asked.
"No!" The guy whimpered. I lifted my foot and let his arm go. He stood up and ran away stumbling.
I didn't get mad easily, but the one thing that would get me riled up fast was when people mistreated women or anyone. Everyone started applauding. I just laughed and walked inside.
When Izzy's class ended, she hurried out woth her stuff falling out of her hands. I laughed and helped her put her stuff into her bags.
" Heard you already caused a scene?" Izzy asked laughing.
" Hey, it's not my fault someone slapped my ass!" I said and shrugged. We both laughed. Everyone was staring at us.
" wait, that's the girl who kicked that guys ass!" " It's Clary Fairchild, the one who's seeing Jace Herondale!" We hopped on my bike and rodd tp the Macy's. Just as we were in the escalator, I got a message from Jace.
JACE: These are the pix we got a few days ago. You can post them if u want!
CLARY: I will!
JACE: oh and bu the way remind me to never make you mad
CLARY: why
JACE: The video of the guy slapping your ass and you flipping him has honestly gone viral.
CLARY: What!
JACE: Yup.
I saved the pictures to my camera roll. Anita was so good at photography. We both looked good even though I felt kind of rough. I went to my Instagram and chose my favourite three photos. I tagged Jace. I captioned the photo "An angel and a potato💫 "
As soon as I hit share, my phone blew up with notifications. I had about 150k followers. I saw that Jace commented on it.
" and you're the angel." Jace is too sweet.
When we made it to the dress section, I gave the note to one of the told us to follow them. They immedietly gave us about 10 dresses to try on. By the fifth dress, Izzy had already found her's. It was a skintight bright red dress, with a deep neckline. The top part was tight but the lower part was beautifully flowy. Izzy looked gorgeus.
It took me forever to find a perfect one. I tried on atleast 20 different dresses, suits and everything in between.
I was so relieved when I finally found the perfect dress. It was a emerald green off shoulder floor length dress, with a bit of a sweetheart neckline. The sleeves sat perfectly on my upper arms. The top part was also tight but it spread out. The material was allost silky, except a bit thicker and sturdier. I chose black stilettos and Izzy chose white ones.
When we went to buy the dresses, we found out that we got them for free. I was really grateful. We thanked the employees and tipped them. We went to get dinner from pizza hut.
When we finally made it home, I was super tored but Izzy still forced me to come to the gym with her. He mostly did strength training and I did cardio. After I while, I went to the boxing bag and started to beat the crap out of it.I hated boxing with gloves, so I usually never used them. The only problem with that was that my knuckles were usually bloody and full of tiny little cuts. And when they weren't full of cuts, you could see all of my old scars. My knuckles were basically just a huge scar by now.
We showered at the at the gym and went to the sauna. It was a thing, that we learned about on our trip to Finland last year.
At home I just put on my pjs and washed my face and teeth. Then I jumped into bed and fell soundly asleep. I, once again, dreamt of Jace.
I'm sorry this is really short! Don't worry guys I'll keep on writing longer ones! Once again, if u liked please review. It makes my day❤️
