Jaces P.O.V:
The whole time they were eating I couldn't take my eyes off of clary. I never noticed how her eyes would glow with excitement whenever Izzy would bring up the dance tomorrow. Which made the my heart ache just a little more then usual. I put a piece of waffle onto my fork and stuck it into my mouth while I silently listened to their conversation praying..Hoping that Izzy wouldn't bring up the conversation she over heard me and my friends had, or the argument me and her had this morning. I looked up in time to see clary roll her eyes at Izzy's indecisive decision on who to go with.
"You know the dance is tomorrow right?" She stated while taking a big bite of pancakes and somehow managing to get whipped crème and strawberry juice on her nose and on the side of her face.
I chuckled.
She turned her attention on me and raised an eyebrow. I always wondered how people did that I never could.
"What are you laughing at Blondie?" somehow managing to get Alec and Izzy to look at me also.
"You have whipped crème all over yourself. Just kinda wondering how a teenager like you can still manage to eat like a elementary student." I said with a small smile.
"Oh really I think you need to stop being such a hypocrite cause you also have stuff on your face." she said while leaning over the table to try and get closer to my face.
"Have you gone blind..." but before I could finish I felt a cool soft fluffy substance get put onto my face in a big clump. I blinked. "Your going to regret that freckles."
I picked up a piece of strawberry and threw it straight at her it landing on her black tank-top she was wearing underneath her jacket.
"Can you two behave in public for once in your life time." Izzy scolded.
"Sorry" we both mumbled while putting our heads down. I looked up underneath my eyelashes and saw a little blush come to her face. She could feel me looking at her. We both met each others gaze and it made both of us have a smile appear on our faces. We locked eyes silently vowing to finish this another time and place.
Izzys P.O.V
I stared at both of them. Surprised at how Jace was actually treating Clary nicely. I was secretly hoping that with them going to the dance together that maybe Clary could open Jaces eyes and actually see the damage he has done to all of his exs and his used to be best friends before he got popular. I don't know or understand why he chooses to hurt them. But he thinks he can get away with it without a consequence. I looked down sadly at my plate of blueberry pancakes. My mind flashed back to the conversation me and Jace were talking about this morning. I didn't know who this girl was...yet but I already feel sorry for her.
"What time are our hair appointments tomorrow?" clary asked while taking a drink of coffee.
"Umm...Oh..10:30 in the morning." I said while taking the last bite of my pancakes.
"Why so early?" Clary said while trying to be sneaky about looking at Jace.
"Cause we both have alot of hair so it will take forever" I replied while seeing Jace roll his eyes in the corner of my eye.
"Are you okay?" she asked with concern coating her voice.
"I'm fine just a little too full" I replied while pushing my plate a little further into the table and out of my way.
"Well lucky for you hear comes the check." Jace said while grabing his wallet out of his pocket.
"Can I get you anything else?" the blonde petite waitress said while batting her mascra covered eyelashes.
I looked up to see Jace smirking. "No thanks I think were all good." He stood up and whispered something in her ear and she let out a little giggle.
I looked over at clary and saw her face fall but as soon as it happened it was gone. I looked at her with confusion. I looked back at Jace and saw him handing her his card and her handing him a piece of paper more then likely with her number on if. I once again looked at clary and saw she had her head facing the opposite wall staring intently outside of the window.
"I can't believe your still going through with the bet" flashed through my mind.
Suddenly a bunch of events came rushing through my mind. Clarys phone call telling me Jace asked her out. The things I heard Jaces buddies saying the night before.
I quickly stood up.
"We need to go now." I saw the nurse hand Jace back his credit card and I stormed out of the restaurant. I saw Alec and Jace run after me while Jace decided to take his time.
