Chapter 22
I don't own any of these amazing characters!
Clary's POV
"Which room is he in?" Jace asks Izzy. "He is in the room that is 2 rooms down from mine." "Oh ok, does Simon know about the whole royal family dinner?" Asks Jace. "No, I was about to go over there." "Oh ok then we can come with you." I say. "Ok then, let's go." Izzy gets up and opens the door. She holds the door open for Jace and I. We walk over to Simons room. Jace knocks on the door. "Who is it?" Simon calls from his room. "Jace,Izzy and I." I call back. "Ok come in!" Jace opens the door. We all step in. "What's up?" Asks Simon. "We are having a royal dinner in a couple of days and you and I are supposed to learn proper table manners for when eating with the royal family, we also have a special guest joining us." I tell him. "Ok, that sounds interesting, and whom is to teach me the proper table manners?" Simon asks. "That would be me." Jace cute in. "I'll be teaching Clary." Says Izzy. "That's one of the things we have to learn, how to be proper and not to fool around basically, so we can stay." I tell him. Simon had a look of shock come across on his face, he quickly erases it and replaces it with a large smile. "Ok then we better get started." Simon says. I look at Jace, he doesn't look like he is going to enjoy this... I laugh, I try to cover it up with a cough. I catch Jace looking at me, sorry not looking at me glaring at me. It's so hard not to laugh, that was hilarious. Izzy grabs my arm and leads me to her room. Once we get to her room she goes into her closet and grabs a basket. "Ok let's get started." She says as she leads me to her desk. She sets the mystery basket down. "What is that?" I ask her. "Its a basket with dinner utensils," I give her a weird look. "My mom taught me how to use the proper forks and such with this.I'll also teach you how to dress appropriately, when in company of the royal family." I nod.
Jace's POV
"Sooo..." Simon says. "Ok, cut it out!" "What did I do?" "I can list off what you have done wrong, it's a long list... I've only known you for basically 2 days." "Ok... I'll shut up." I nod happily. "So to start I need to teach you how to be a gentleman." I say. "Aren't I already one?" Simon asks. I give him a look. He seems to get the message. "Ok, first and foremost, when a lady is with you, you always open doors for them. You always be kind. Don't make dumb comments. Be polite. Basically that's it." I look at Simon, he looks deep in thought. "Ok, got it." "Are you sure?" I ask. "Yep absolutely positively surely sure!" He yells. "Woah not so loud, also you can't do that." "Ok." He says. I then take hours going over stuff like that. I also go over which utensils to use when eating and so on. I'm sure Simon got most of it. At the end Simon collapses on his bed. I hear him let out a sigh. Well this day took a turn. "I'm going to see how the girls are doing." "Oh ok, I'm coming to." He says still laying on the bed. "Are you coming?" "Oh yeah of course." I nod and continue walking. I go to knock on Izzy's door, I hesitate because I hear laughing. Looks like they are starting to get along more know after all of that eairlier. I hear Clary squeal. I knock on the door. "Come in." I wander into the room, Simon following close behind. "Hey whatcha doing-" I see Clary in a dress, a black short tight one that takes my breath away. "I thought you were teaching her proper manners not how to dress to go to a club." I say. "I did, but we are getting ready to go to a club, Magnus is hosting one of his grand parties at the Pandemonium." "Oh ok, I didn't hear about that." I say. "Wanna come?" Asks Clary. "Yeah! I'm in." Says Simon. "Sure." I say. "Go get ready then!" Izzy yells at me. "Ok fine. We are going, jeez!" I say and head out the door. I go to my room, Simon goes to his.
Clary's POV
"Oh My Gawd!" Izzy says. "What?" I ask. "Did you see Jaces face when he saw you in that dress?" "Um,no, why?" I ask a bit confused. "His jaw basically hit the floor." "I take it that's good." "Um, heck yeah!" Izzy says with lots of excitement. "Ok!" I say. "I'm going to wear my sneakers." I say to Izzy. "No, no you are not." "Why not?" I ask. "Because I said so." Izzy goes to her closet and starts digging around. "Here! These should work perfectly!" She says as she hands me the heels. "I'm going to twist my ankle in these!" I say! "No you will be fine!" She says. "Now for the makeup and hair!" She says happily. I'm starting to think that she loves this kind of stuff. Nope I know she does! I let her do her thing. "Close your eyes, I'll tell you when I'm done." "Ok." I say closing my eyes. Awhile later Izzy finally says she's done. "Wow... I look..." "You look stunning, any guys jaw would be hitting the floor." Izzy says. Izzy gets the curler she had plugged in and grabs it. Izzy combs my hair. Then she grabs a piece and braids my hair at the side of my head and takes it to the back of my head and pins it there. Then she takes the curler and curls all the other pieces. "Wow." Is all I can say. "You are welcome." She says. "Thanks!" I say. Izzy does her makeup and hair. It takes her forever. I mean forever. She likes it one way then decides on another one. This goes on for awhile. "Ok you look great!" I say. "Let's go now." I tell her and grab her and lead her out . "Let's find the boys." Says Izzy. "Yep." She takes me to Jace's room.
