Just as they finished talking, Simon entered the classroom, and is eyes went wide when they landed on Isabelle. He stumbled over to the girls and slid into the seat next to Isabelle.
"Izzy! I didn't know you were coming today!"
"I didn't know this was your school."
"Well, yeah. I see you've met Clary."
'Oh yes, shes told me ALLL about you."
Simon stammered slightly. "A-all about me?"
"Kidding babe, I still like you."
Simon chuckled awkwardly. "That's good. Oh have you met Maia?"
He asked as Maia came and sat down on his other side.
"No. Hi, Im Isabelle."
"Maia. Are you Simons girlfriend?"
"Yeah I am."
Maia grinned around Isabelle at Clary, who mimicked her.
"By the angel he didn't make you up." The three girls all cracked up laughing and Simon blushed furiously, but was saved as the teacher walked in.
"Good morning class. Today we will be starting on trigonometry. Now you will have learnt the basics the previous 2 years, but this year we will have a quick revision and dive in deeper. I trust everyone has their calculator?"
There were a few mumbles around the class.
"Well, if you don't have one you have until the end of the week, before you'll be placed in detention."
A few kids groaned, but Mrs. Marks just kept talking and started with trigonometry. It was boring and the 4 of them internally groaned when they realised how hard it would be. Finally the lesson ended and they left to go to their lockers. Clary was next to Maia, and Simon was across the hall, but Isabelle didn't know yet.
"They said they would assign me one by the end of the week." She said with a shrug. "Can I keep my books in your locker for now Clary?"
Clary nodded and cleared a shelf for her. After they had gotten their history books out the went outside and sat on the grass, talking about their holidays.
"Yeah it was awesome, I caught up with Jordan like, everyday. And then at the end we went to the coast for a week."
"Is Jordan your boyfriend?"
"Yeah."
"Is he hot?" Isabelle asked curiously.
"Extremely,"Maia said with a grin.
Isabelle turned to me, "Clary do you think he's hot?"
"Definitely. If he wasn't dating Maia I would definitely be after him, but he's dating Maia so Im not,"Clary finished with a wink at Maia.
"I want to see him."
"You'll see him at lunch Izzy, he sits with my brother and all the other idiots in the football team."
"Oh cool. Is there a cheerleading team?"
"Yeah, we're both on it. You should try out."
"Yes! I totally want to. When are tryouts?"
"Next week I think."
"Awesome, I am totally there."
"You'll most likely get in. Im almost certain that Kaelie chooses cheerleaders based on who can pull off the outfit."
"Sounds like a skank."
"You got that right. 'Queen bee' of our school. She thinks shes so amazing; you'll probably get an invite to her little clique."
"No way am I doing that again. I tried being really popular at one school, my gosh they were all so stupid and annoying, and fake! Like they brought all these crap clothes that were knock offs. I just wanted to scream! But I didn't."
"Probably a good thing Iz."
Izzy punched Simon in the arm, and all of them stood up as the bell went off, heading off to history. When they arrived the teacher, Mr. Penhallow, took attendance and told them what they would be studying.
"So, we'll start off with World War 1, then World War 2 for term 1. Term 2 hasn't been decided yet, but we'll keep you updated. Who knows anything about World War 1?"
When no one answered he sighed and settled into a lengthy speech about World War 1 and who it was between, where it was etc. Finally, when Clary thought her head would explode the bell rang. Clary hightailed it out of there, Isabelle on her heels as the hurried to the girls locker room. Clary changed into black nike shorts and sneakers, with a white fitness teeshirt. Isabelle appeared in purple nike shorts, black sneakers and a matching purple sports bra with a loose singlet top over it. She entered the gym, when the coach was standing talking on his phone. As students began appearing he put it away, opting to teach the class instead of talk on his phone.
"Okay, today we'll be playing volleyball. Sort out your teams and start, I'll come around and correct your technique." Clary and Izzy hurried off to be on the same team, and started the match. They worker quite well together, and Clary was happy until she heard that annoying nasally voice behind her.
"Oh my god, Clary! How are you!"
"Kaelie, Ive said this before. My brother doesn't want to date or sleep with you and I sure as hell don't want to be friend with you."
"Come on Clary, we would be best friends!"
Clary rolled her eyes, "Yeah, right. Come on Iz, lets join that game," and she pulled Izzy over to the other court. Clary turned back and saw Kaelie standing there still, glaring at her with a sour expression on her face.
"That was fun."
"Extremely."
"Not a fan of her?"
"no, she keeps trying to get close to me so she can know my brother. Its annoying."
"Understandably so."
They lapsed into a comfortably silence, grunting occasionally when the ball came towards them. 10 minutes before the bell rang the coach let them go to get dressed, and Izzy and Clary quickly changed back and headed to the cafeteria, still with 2 minutes to spare.
"So, what do your brothers look like Iz?"
"Well, Alec and Jace are both really muscly, and Jace has blond hair while Alec has my coloured hair. Um, I guess their tall but not excessively so, and then Max looks almost exactly like Simon actually. He's pretty cute. What about you?"
"Yeah, Jon has white-blond hair, and is muscly."
"Awesome."
The girls both got a salad and fries for lunch, and sat down at Clary's usual table in between the doors and centre of the cafeteria. 5 minutes later the rest of the school piled in, the football guys sitting in the centre and everyone else falling in around them.
"See that guy with white blond hair over there Iz?"
"Yeah, oh my gosh hes so hot."
"ew no. That's my brother."
"Dayum Clary, Im going to practically live at your house."
"Ha-ha. Where are your brothers?"
"Um, lets me see." She paused, her eyes scanning the cafeteria, before resting on 2 boys walking towards the football table. "There they are. Jace and Alec. Jace is the blond one."
Clary gawked at them as they moved to sit at the popular table. They were so attractive, and Clary couldn't stop staring.
"Izzy, your brothers are gorgeous."
"Ppfht, don't tell them that. Jace has a big enough ego as it is."
Clary laughed, "Sounds like my brother."
Simon and Maia joined them, and the spent lunch laughing and joking together, until the bell rang signalling the end of lunch. Clary hurried off with Simon towards art, which was at the other end of the school. They made it just as Mrs. Branwell walked in.
"Good afternoon, children. Today I would like you to partner with someone from another year and paint or draw a portrait of them." Clary looked around, and noticed the class split evenly between seniors, year 11 and year 10. The classes were usually segregated, but electives was a mix between the 3 years. Clary found a year 10 boy and sat down beside him.
"Hey Im Clary."
"Julian."
"So, lets get started." Clary got out an easel and a fresh sketch pad, also collecting her favourite pencils. She got lost in her drawing, occasionally looking up to check what Julian looked like. Finally, the bell brought her out of her little world. She looked up to see Julian giving her a sheepish smile.
"Sorry, you're a lot prettier than in my picture; I'm a really bad drawer."
Clary laughed, "No don't worry. Sorry I couldn't quite get your eyes right."
"No that's fine, wow you're an amazing artist."
"Thanks," Clary said blushing slightly.
They both handed their drawings in to the teacher and Clary left with Simon to go to music, where they ran into Izzy who was just walking in.
"Hey, how was phycology?"
"Don't even talk to me about it. It was stupid to think it would be fun."
Clary laughed and followed her in, sitting on the end beside Izzy, and Simon on her other side. Just as the teacher walked in, Jon, Jace and Jordan strolled in, slipping into the back seats and laughing loudly at something, disrupting the whole class without caring at all.
Mr. Wayland sighed, "Are you going to keep this up all year boys?"
The boys all grinned at them. "Great. Well, at least I know what I'm in for. Lets get started. This semester, we'll cover music theory, practise and history. Each Friday you'll have a 'test'. You will have to present a song to the class on anything. You can sing, or play an instrument, and every 2nd week you are allowed to do a duet. Understand? Today we'll just revise treble and bass clef, ready for Friday. Lets go. Who knows what note lies on the first line in treble cleff?"
"E." Jace called from the back.
"That is correct Mr. Lightwood, now if we all turn to page 7 of the books on your desk we can revise quickly." He called as we all pulled our books open and studied the notes, but Clary turned and looked at Jace. He looked…familiar. But Clary wasn't sure, he was very attractive though, she knew that much. His golden hair and his golden eyes, it was incredible. But he seemed like a guy with too much ego, someone Clary wasn't willing to get to know.
The bell went, just after the boys decided to see who could throw the furthest with a paper plane. They were really mature. They returned to our lockers; and Izzy to Clarys to put their books away. Thankfully they didn't have any homework considering it was the first day of school. Clary bid goodbye to the others and made her way to the student car park where she would meet her brother. She saw him across the parking lot, leaning against his car with Kaelie pressed up against him and Jace and Jordan talking to him. Clary rolled her eyes and walked over to him, Isabelle following her to reach her brother, Jace.
"Jon, lets go."
"Yeah ok, some of the guys are coming over as well."
"Really? Haven't you known Jace for like one day?"
"Point?"
"Whatever."
Kaelie jumped at the chance, "Can I come and hang with you today Clary? Considering theres one spare seat of course."
I rolled my eyes and was about to retaliate when Izzy but it.
"No, Im hanging with Clary today, go find someone else to annoy."
Kaelie opened and closed her mouth a few times, before huffing and stalking off.
"Izzy, you are my lifesaver!" Clary exclaimed.
"Thanks me later, now lets go! I want to see your house."
Clary laughed and got in the car, ending up being squished between Izzy and Jace. Jon was driving and Jordan was in the front seat.
"So, Jace. Play any sport?"
"Football." Jace said quietly from his spot beside me.
"Oh, how original." Clary said rolling her eyes. Jon snorted.
"Come on Clary, play nice with my new friend."
Jace smirked, "I would be more than willing to play nice with you Clary," he said with a suggestive wink. Clary scoffed and elbowed him in the ribs, and Jon glared at Jace.
"Geez man, don't even joke about that stuff, shes my sister and way out of bounds for you."
Clary rolled her eyes again; just as everyone else in the car did too. The car ride lasted only a few quiet minutes longer, before they were pulling up to Clary's house and piling out the door. Clary ushered Izzy up to her room and they blasted some music out and sang along, eventually collapsing in fits of giggles when Clary tried to dance along. Izzy snorted, causing them to laugh even harder.
"Ok, wow, your, a terrible, like, terrible, dancer.." Izzy panted out. Clary mock-glared at her,
"Your just jealous your don't have my supreme dancing skills," she shot back, executing a move to prove her point. Unfortunately, she knocked a photo frame off her dresser and it smashed on the ground. Both girls lapsed into another round of laughter, finding it hard to stop their laughing.
"Im gonna go get food," clary choked out, leaving behind a laughing Isabelle. Clary took the steps two at a time and emerged in the kitchen, where she dug relentlessly through the pantry before discovering a stash of junk food. She selected salt and vinegar chips and a block of cadbury chocolate and headed back up to her room. On the way there, she was to immersed on opening the block of chocolate that she didn't notice to wall that appeared in front of her, until she smashed straight into it. She groaned and sat up, blinking in surprise when the wall offered a hand up. Looking up, she discovered it wasn't a wall at all but rather Jace standing there smirking.
"Look, Clary I know you want to touch me but there are better ways."
"Piss off Jace."
"That's a bit harsh Clare."
"You are very welcome."
"What? Oh never mind, I better leave you to your girly business."
Clary rolled her eyes and pushed past Jace and into her room, where Isabelle was just wiping tears from her eyes.
"That, made my day. Now, what food did you get?"
"I feel as though you only like me for my food," Clary said in mock disappointment.
"You'll get used to it hon," Izzy said with a grin.
"Well in that case I offer you chips and chocolate."
