I'm sooooo sorry! Chapter 2 seemed weird to me so I had to rewrite it so many times! Please read Author's note at the bottom!
I do not own the characters, they belong to Cassandra Clare, I just borrow them :)
Clary POV
Clary sat up like a bolt. She was sweating and had this weird feeling of devastation in the pit of her stomach. She shrugged and untangled herself from her antique brass silk sheets.
Clary crawled to her bathroom and stared at herself in the mirror. Her normally bright emerald eyes looked dull and dead, her striking carmine hair was tangled into millions of knots and looked like a bird's nest and her porcelin skin looked deathly pale, making her freckles stand out even more. Lately, Clary's been only dreaming of that moment 6 years ago with that boy, Jace, and every single morning she looked like the undead, thanks to those haunting dreams. "Maybe I should borrow Dorothea's sleeping pills." Clary thought, stripping out of her striped pyjamas. She kicked her night-wear away and stepped into the modern, glass shower.
-MEANWHILE- Jace POV
"Alec, how was the night shift?" Jace smirked, recalling last night's events.
-flashback-
"Okay... First one drunk has the night shift with Izzy!" Jace announced, raising a drinking glass. Most of the crew grinned, gazing at Isabelle flirtaciously while Alec frowned and side-hugged Isabelle, who was glaring darkly at Jace. "If looks could kill" he thought, noticing the dark, dangerous aura around Isabelle. Elias (A.N: Remember him from the books? :D) poured drinks in everyone's glasses and chuckled as Alec drank it all in one gulp. Alec wasn't gonna let anyone stay with Izzy the whole night, no, Alec doesn't trust some of the boys, who knows what Melior might do?
After 5 mins, Alec was smashed because he had drank cup after cup at lightning speed. Jace laughed at Alec's protectiveness and Jace announced,
"Sorry boys, Alec is drunk so he's gonna do the night shift with Izzy!" The crew moaned things like: "It's not fair!" and "Her brother's so protective!" Alec walked out, wobling on his feet and Izzy went after him. She turned around and mouthed "Thank you!"
-end flashback-
Alec shook his head,
"Nightmare. I hate hangovers..." He mumbled and Jace chuckled,
"Stay in bed today. I'll navigate the ship." Jace walked off, leaving Alec, his second-in-command, brother and best friend, to rest.
Jace wondered around the deck, looking at the sea and the clear sky. His mind was muddled up and he was tired. Last night, he kept dreaming of his first foster family: his mother's cruel smile, his father's strictness and then, he remembered the day he was freed from that. The day he met the princess, the day he nearly became a slave. Those haunting, evil dreams didn't leave him last night, every time he woke up and tried to go back to sleep, they would come and invade his mind.
"Hi Jace!" An annoying, high-pitched, excited voice snapped him out of his trance.
"What do you want Kaeli?" He asked politely but coldly.
"Well, I thought that staying on the deck might be too boring for you, so I thought maybe we could go to your room and have some fun?" She smiled and pushed her chest out. Jace sighed, he didn't like Kaeli. They were drunk and they only did it once but ever since she's been so clingy!
"Kaeli, thanks for the offer but I'm not interested."
"But... But, you should be!" Kaeli pouted.
"Just go away Kaeli." Jace calmly told her.
"No, don't you want to have some fun?"
"Go away!" He yelled. Kaeli gasped and dashed to Aline on the other side of the ship befor he could apologize.
"Shit." I muttered. "It's hard being such a good-looking captain..." Jace thought, running his hand through his golden curls.
PLEASE READ!
Thanks for the 7 follows and the 2 favourites! Everything means a lot to me!
Thak you IvyCrystal, Guest and Justrockzyxxx for the reviews! Just to answer some questions:
Is Clary Older than Jace?- No, they are the same age (16) but in the backstory Clary acts older because she takes care of Jace as how she takes care of Sebastian (he is 15 in this story so the story makes sense in the future.)
Is Jace the "good" or "bad" guy?- you decide. This story is double sided :)
If there's no magic, why does the caption say magicians?- Do you know fake magicians? It's like that, there's no real magic but someone will have the title of "Magician"
Thank you for reading! I hope you bear with me through this and please review and favourite!
Yours bookishly,
SnowyCricket
