Sorry for not updating in a while but I promise to do it soon. Now that it's summer I can! Do enjoy...
I angrily lifted the fencing sword high in the air and slashed the dummy across the stomach. I imagined the dummy with jet black hair and dark blue eyes. I imagined Will. I turned to another dummy that I liked to picture with Goldie Locks blond hair and golden eyes. I slashed his neck.
When that was through, I changed into a sports bra and shorts, and because I was home alone, did not put on a shirt. I put on boxing gloves and hit the punching bag hard. It really hurt my knuckles, late last year, before my parents left, they gave me an old punching bag. Don't ask why, cause it's a long story. Anyways, I never really used it so I wasn't as skilled at punching things. That came out wrong, I am awesome and amazing at punching things, just not without hurting myself.
"You looked hurt Cecily." I turn to see no other then the sandy haired Gabriel Lightwood staring at me with a worried expression on. It's a good thing I wore a jogging bra. His hair was pushed away from his face, his eyes fixed on my face, his hands in his pockets, his spine leaned back. I put my hands on my hips and glared at him, then I realized that his gaze lowered down. I literally gave his eyes full access to my breasts. Smart. He stared at them, though I was pretty sure he was not a virgin, it seemed like the type of look a virgin would give. I crossed my arms and glared at him some more.
"How did you get in?"
"Maia and Clary." Of course, they're probably here for the pool. I did invite them and they have a key. I trust them that much, yes. Apparently that meant Gabriel too.
"Who else is here?"
"Simon," I had no problem with him, "and Jordan." Of course, him and Maia are dating.
"Fine. Give me five minutes I need to change."
He sprinted up stairs as I pulled out another bathing suit. It was a violet floral suit that Will would never let me wear in public because Izzy had picked it. He never even saw it, just knowing Iz picked it was enough for him I guess. I actually happened to like it although it had a tiny string holding it together. It's top has pop out purple flowers that made you look at my...ya know. And the bottom was the same plain purple.
I marched up stairs, holding the top's strings together because I couldn't tie them. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Maia and waved her over, accidentally flashing the living room or her and Clary.
"Oh my gosh! Cecy cover it up! We get it your curvy!" Clary said covering her eyes.
"My god. Just tie my straps?" Maia giggled as her fingers laced around the stings to my bikini, "I can't believe you guys actually showed up. I thought at least you Clary would wanna go with Jace." I smirked as Maia burst out laughing.
"Shut up. At least we brought Lightwood with us." Clary shot back.
"Why did you anyways? It's not like you guys are friends with him..."
"Of course we are," Clary attempts to tie her hair into a bun, "Everyone is really except you Herondales. I mean...Simon's my best friend and he's friends with Gabriel. He kinda has to be, considering how he's dating her cousin, plus they go to the same archery thing. With Alec gone, Gabriel has been sorta protective over Iz. And she with him too. I think it's because...Gideon doesn't seem to care at the moment..."
"So Clar Bear's friends with Gabriel, what's your excuse?" I turn to Maia.
"My excuse?" Maia gave me one of her rare glares, "Look stop interrogating us. He's our friend okay? Jace doesn't even have a problem with him anymore. I think that your listening to Will to much. And if you must know, Jordan, Simon and Gabriel are all friends. They aren't all popular like Izzy, that doesn't mean they can't hang out. Okay? Let's go. The boys are waiting."
And I sheepishly followed them. As we stepped outside into the bright light of my backyard, I got the familiar glance of a blue pool, a few umbrellas that stretched over a few pool chairs. Okay, I'm gonna be honest. My family's rich. My parents only went back to Whales because they needed to branch out the company to Whales. They own some cosmetics thing that has breached out to North America, Britain and...oh yeah. All of Europe pretty much. We weren't millionaires, they company only has a few places in Europe, but we were rich enough. My dad of course would never trust me, without a supervisor and he did not trust Will and Jace to watch over me, so he hired me a butler. Of course I didn't take advantage of him idiots! In fact, he only had to work when I had friends over. The other rest of the time, he only had to cook and babysit me. Although he, or Buford, insisted, I never let him do my laundry or clean my room. He had simple things to do. Today, he had set out a dish of sandwiches, crust cut off, pop, chips and his oh so famous snicker doodle cookies. They were really good.
"Hey guys." Simon smiled sweetly, "Cookie?" Like the elegant girls we were, Maia, Clary and I raced to get the cookie from Simon's fingers. When Maia snatched it away, there were cries of victory and battle cries. The boys chuckled as I stuck my tongue out at Maia. She took tiny bites of the last cookie, rubbing it in Clary and I's faces.
"Miss," I turn to see Buford, "There are more, that have just come out of the oven. Would you like me to fetch them?"
"Yes, thank you Sir." Clary cut in and I nodded.
"So..." I smirked at Simon, "Why didn't you go with Iz?"
"Ce, you know parties aren't my thing."
"Yet you're dating Miss Popular." Maia teases.
"Well," Simon turned to Clary, "This one rejected me."
Clary turned as red as her hair quickly as we all laughed.
"No wonder," Jordan walks behind Maia, "Blondie Locks was and is still available."
"Well," But before Maia could finish her sentence, Jordan tossed her into the pool and soon enough, Simon did the same with Clary as Gabriel did the same with me.
A bit short but I hope y'all enjoyed it. If I get enough, maybe 3, comments, I'll continue. Thank you for reading!
