I would have updated yesterday for a second time, but my laptop died. So it's not my fault! Thanks to everyone that reviewed!
"What?!" Jace screamed.
Clary looked a bit sick, but also like she wanted to laugh. Simon was paler than usual, assuming that was possible without him being. Or more dead. Isabelle, even though her boyfriend was involved, was laughing out loud. Magnus was grinning, and Alec was trying to look sympathetic for the two, but was failing miserably.
"What did I do to get dragged into this?" Simon asked the warlock.
Magnus shrugged. "I don't know. I couldn't pick Clary, because that wouldn't be funny. Isabelle and Alec are both technically related to him and I'm not doing it. That leaves you."
Simon made a sad little sound. "Why me?" he wailed.
"So, are you going to or not?" Magnus asked Jace.
The shadow hunter shook his head. "I'm going to do that."
"I thought you said you never wimped out of a dare." Alec snickered.
Jace glared at his brother, who he hadn't thought would remember what he said when he was ten and playing this game. With a growl he said "Start the time." Standing up he went over to where Simon and Isabelle sat.
Isabelle got up and moved, allowing Jace to sit in her seat. She moved over to sit by Clary.
Seven minutes later, Jace and Isabelle switched seats back.
Jace wiped his tongue off on his sleeve. "Ew!"
"You are so going to get it Magnus." Simon growled, looking a little green.
The warlock chuckled. "Bring it."
Jace then turned glared at Alec. "This is your fault."
"How is it my fault you made out with Simon?" Alec tried to keep a straight face, but he couldn't help it and laughed.
"You taunted me by telling everyone I had said I would never not do a dare. So I had to do it."
Clary shook her head. "Jace, you still could have not done it. It's your fault if anything."
"No, it's Alec's fault. And Magnus's. He told me to the dare, and Alec taunted me into actually doing it. Their working against me!" Jace pointed an accusing finger at the couple.
"Yes, their trying to get you." Isabelle said, sarcasm heavy in her voice.
Jace opened his mouth to protest in one way or another, but Clary butted in. "Can we just continue the game?"
Simon nodded. "It's your turn Jace. You better get revenge."
Jace grinned. "Oh, I plan on it." he turned to his brother. "Alec. Truth or dare?"
Alec stopped his quite laughter. This wasn't going to turn out good for him, was it? "Um…uh…"
"And I wouldn't pick truth unless you want to answer a really embarrassing question. And if you back out of either, your boxers are coming off." Jace was smiling in a very evil way.
Alec hesitated. "Um…I suppose…dare." He really didn't like answering questions that Jace called embarrassing, and he really wanted to keep as much clothing on as possible. And the dare couldn't be THAT bad, could it?
Jace grinned. He'd been hoping Alec would choose that. "I dare you to dress up like a maid for the rest of the night."
Alec blinked in disbelief. Had Jace really just said what he thought he said? Please let me just have really bad hearing! Alec pleaded in his mind.
"Maid?" He squeaked.
Jace grinned. "Yes, a maid. One with a short, frilly skirt and tight corset." Alec opened his mouth to speak, but Jace wasn't finished. "So, dear brother, what will it be? Dress up like a maid or take off the boxers."
Alec groaned. "Is there a third option?"
"You could always strip." Magnus said unhelpfully. "I'm sure that would make up for it."
Isabelle nodded. "Oh, definitely."
Alec debated his options and if he could make a run for it. Finally, he gave up. There was no way he was getting out of this. "I'll do the dare." He muttered. Getting up he made his way to the bathroom.
Jace looked at his brother's boyfriend. "Magnus, can you get an outfit for him."
Magnus nodded eagerly and quickly followed Alec.
"And if you aren't back out here in one minute we're coming in there." Isabelle called after them.
A minute later, Magnus came back out of the bathroom and the door was slammed shut behind him by Alec. "Remember Alec." he said through the door. "Put ALL of it on. I will be checking later." There was a loud bang on the door. Magnus started back towards the loveseat, laughing so hard he almost fell onto the floor as he went to sit back down.
Isabelle looked at Magnus thoughtfully. "Judging by hard your laughing, I'm guessing you picked out something really slutty and embarrassing for him to wear."
Magnus shook his head and with a long, happy sigh, managed to stop laughing. "No, not slutty. Just really, really, really cute!" Magnus was practically exploding with excitement.
Clary sighed inwardly as he said this. She had been prepared to see Alec walk out of the bathroom wearing little more than a 'skirt'. Thankfully it wasn't anything like that though. No matter how much she liked Alec as a friend, she didn't want to see him dressed like that.
As they sat there, waiting for Alec to emerge from the bathroom, Simon yawned. "I'm kind of tired."
"Too bad. We're playing all night long." Isabelle said, leaning against her boyfriend.
"Then I'm hungry." Simon complained.
"Go get food then. We do have such a thing as a kitchen." Jace pointed out the library door.
Isabelle sat up. "I could go make us something to eat."
This was followed by a shout of "Please don't!" from Simon, a "Um…that's ok." from Clary, a "If you do, warn me ahead of time so I can make it to bathroom with Alec and lock the door." from Magnus, and one "Please save me this torture!" from Jace.
Isabelle huffed and leaned back against Simon.
A minute of silence passed.
Finally, Jace sighed. "Alec!" he yelled. "Are you coming out anytime soon?"
After a pause, Alec answered. "I can't get it on, so – "
Magnus interrupted by shooting up in his seat. "I'll help you get it on!"
"No, no, no! That's ok! I-I got it." came the hurried reply.
Magnus, looking extremely disappointed, slumped back down in his seat.
Nobody said anything as they waited some more for Alec to reappear from the bathroom. Isabelle had the sneaking suspicion that her older brother was just hiding out in the bathroom, waiting until he got the chance to escape to his room. She was about to yell at him to get his ass out of the bathroom when the door clicked open.
Everyone turned to look as Alec emerged from the bathroom, wearing the maid's outfit Magnus had picked out for him. ( art/i-cosplay-cafe-maid-outfit-79881099 here is the link to what Alec's outfit looks like. I don't feel like describing it right now)
Clary giggled. "Omg Alec, that outfit is so cute!"
Alec, whose face was blushing bright red, ignored her and quickly walked over to his and Magnus's loveseat, sitting down beside his boyfriend and staring down at his feet, which were covered in black high heels that Magnus had insisted he wear.
Isabelle nodded. "It really is very cute Alec."
Alec mumbled something that nobody except Magnus heard. The warlock laughed at whatever it was and wrapped his arms around Alec's waist, pulling him into his lap.
"If it makes you feel better Alec, we can all gang up on Jace." Simon said.
Jace laughed. "You guys could never beat me at this game. I am the dare master!"
Clary rolled her eyes. "Of course you are."
Isabelle suddenly laughed. "I see that someone has recently waxed their legs."
Alec's face blushed even more. "Magnus made me." he defended himself, still looking at the ground.
This caused Jace to laugh even more. "And Alec, where did you learn how to walk in high heels?" he asked when he could breath, referring to when Alec had made it from the bathroom to the couch without stumbling.
Alec made a pitiful little noise and buried his head in Magnus's shoulder.
Magnus in turn glared at Jace. "I will have you know that is also my 'fault', and learning to walk in high heels is wonderful for your balance."
Jace scoffed. "Ya, right."
Clary glared at her boyfriend. "Be nice. And Alec, it's your turn now."
Alec looked up. His face was still red, but not as much as a second ago. "Isabelle, truth or dare."
"Dare."
Alec frowned. He wasn't very good at thinking of dares. Magnus leaned forward and whispered an idea in his ear. Alec giggled as manly as a gay guy in a maid's costume could. (Which wasn't that manly)
"Ok, Isabelle I dare you to either make out with Church-"
"Ew! Fuck no!" she screeched, shivering slightly at the very idea.
"-or a tickle me Elmo."
Isabelle snarled. "Give me the doll."
Magnus snapped his fingers and a tickle me Elmo doll appeared in the shadow hunters lap.
Isabelle grabbed the thing and held it up, even with her face.
"Do it Isabelle. Kiss that doll!" Jace yelled.
Isabelle brought the doll to her lip and kissed it. After about a minute of this, she stopped her make out session and threw the Elmo.
Jace just barely ducked in time to miss it hitting his head. "Hey! Are you trying to kill me?"
"Clary, truth or dare." Isabelle said to his girlfriend, completely ignoring him.
"Dare." Clary said without thinking.
"I dare you to drop ten pieces of ice down your bra and leave them there until they melt."
Clary shrugged. "Ok."
"Alec, since you are dressed as a maid, can you go get the ice?" Isabelle asked.
Alec groaned. "Do I have to?"
"Yes."
"But I don't want to get up." To further state this point, Alec snuggled closer to Magnus.
"But – "
"Hey hasn't it been ten turns by now?" Simon cut in.
"Yes."
"Then I'm going to change out of this." Before anyone could do anything, Simon was gone from the room. He returned a moment later in his normal clothes, and not the cat costume.
"Now, about the ice." Isabelle was about to get up and go get it, seeing as nobody else was going to, but Magnus snapped and a cup full of ice appeared on the table in front of Clary.
Gulping, Clary grabbed the first piece. She yelped as she dropped it down her bra. "This is cold!" but she continued on, adding nine more pieces.
"Good job Clary. Now it's your turn."
"S-Simon, truth or d-dare." Clary's teeth chattered.
"How about dare."
Clary thought a moment. "I d-dare you t-to…u-um…do the s-splits."
"Clary, why do you always make me do that?" Simon asked as he stood up.
"Because I k-know you c-can't do them, a-and it's so f-funny to watch you t-try."
It was after five minutes of watching Simon struggle that Clary took pity on him. "Y-you can stop n-now S-Simon."
With a relieved sigh Simon sat back down besides Isabelle. "Thank you Clary. Now, Isabelle, truth or dare."
"How about truth."
"Do you like me or are you just dating me for the fun of it?"
Isabelle smiled at him. "I really do like you."
Jace made a gagging noise. Clary punched him in the stomach. "Be nice!" she hissed.
"Ok, my turn. Magnus, truth or dare."
"Dare."
"I dare you to…try and strip Alec out of all of his clothes."
Magnus grinned and moved a hand to grab the bottom of Alec's maid skirt. Alec slowly looked at Magnus and narrowed his eyes. Knowing what that look meant, Magnus moved his hand back to the shadow hunters waist.
"There, I tried."
Jace snorted. "You wimp."
Magnus didn't say anything. He knew Alec would beat him – probably with the high heels he wore – if he tried anything.
"My turn. Jace. Truth or dare."
"Dare."
"I dare you to moon the camera."
Isabelle and Simon laughed at Jace's surprised expression. Clary tried not to laugh. For her boyfriend's sake. She failed.
Turning his back to the camera, Jace slid down his pants. "Get a long look at my ass camera!" he yelled. After a good twenty seconds he pulled his pants back up and sat down.
"Ok, so Simon, truth or dare."
"Truth."
"What was the weirdest thing you have ever done?"
Simon laughed. "Probably when I ate a piece of something black off the street."
Isabelle looked disgusted. "And I kissed you!"
"Yep."
"Ew!"
"Ok, before we continue the game, we should take a bathroom break and get some snacks." Clary said, already standing up.
Jace shrugged. "Ok." he stood up and followed Clary out of the room.
Isabelle and Simon got up to follow as well.
Leaving Magnus and Alec alone in the library.
"Are you hungry Alec?" Magnus asked after a moment's silence.
"Ya."
"What do you want to eat?"
"How about skittles." Alec knew Magnus loved skittles. Probably because they were rainbow colored and in all the commercials it said "Taste the rainbow" at the end.
The warlock snapped and a bowl of skittles appeared on the table.
"And some popcorn?"
A bowl of popcorn appeared next to the skittles.
Alec leaned forward and grabbed a handful of popcorn. Magnus watched him eat it for a moment.
"So Alec. Do you love popcorn?"
Alec nodded.
Magnus bit his lip to keep from laughing. He knew Alec wouldn't get the joke, which made this so much funnier. To try and not laugh, Magnus snapped in a bottle in and took a sip.
"But it has to be the right type of popcorn."
Magnus chocked on the water. Gaining his composure, he looked at Alec. "Is that so?"
"Ya. Not all of it is very good." Alec grabbed the bowl of popcorn and held it in his lap while he ate some more.
Seeing as Alec still didn't get the joke, Magnus decided to give him a hint. "So, do you like to do popcorn reading or popcorn watching more?"
Alec frowned, clearly confused. "You can't watch or read popcorn. It's a food, you eat it."
Magnus couldn't help it and laughed. Alec's look of confusion only made him laugh harder. When he had calmed down, he looked at Alec, who was still frowning. "Did you not get the joke?" he asked.
Alec shook his head.
Magnus sighed. He was about to tell Alec the joke, but the other four chose that moment to return with some snacks.
"I'll tell you later." He said quickly.
Alec just shrugged.
"So, it's Simons turn, right?" Clary asked.
Simon nodded. "Yes, it is my turn. Jace, truth or dare."
"Dare."
"I dare you to get dressed in one of Isabelle's dresses for a photoshoot."
Another ending in the middle of a dare.
