Tessa woke up abruptly from a nightmare. She turned onto her side, breathing heavily, and came face-to-face with Will's face.
What was he doing in her bed? She looked around. She wasn't in her bedroom. She was in the Herondale guest bedroom...
And she thought she told Will to sleep on the floor. How did he end up in her bed?
She remembered that she fell into an ice bucket, well got pushed, and that he had let her take a shower and had given her a room to stay in and a change of clothes.
His clothes, maybe.
He was shirtless, for whatever reason, and Tessa only hoped he was wearing pants or shorts or something.
She didn't want to check, though. Instead, she smoothed out her too-big t-shirt, and wriggled around the boxer shorts.
Will's eye fluttered, and he shifted in his sleep. Tessa silently tried to wiggle her way to the edge of the bed.
Once off, she tried to open the door, but she couldn't open it. It was either locked, or it she wasn't doing something right, though she couldn't see how a door could be so complicated.
She groaned. She would have to change silently and wait until Will woke up. At least there was a bookshelf in the corner, so she could read a book while she waited.
She found her bra folded in the corner neatly with an extra shawl-like blanket, and went over.
She slipped Will's shirt over her head, trying to cover herself properly, and slung on strap over her shoulder.
As she was fastening her bra, Will's eyes opened. Tessa didn't finish clasping her bra.
He looked at her. At least she was wearing something...
"Tess? Undressing? Is that how you managed to get me in your bed?" He asked sleepily.
She rolled her eyes and threw his shirt back on. "Well, you're the same in the mornings, aren't you. And just to be sure, I did not sleep with you, and I did not undress in front of you. In fact, I'm dressing now, because I'm ready to go. Thanks for everything, but I really need to go. Sophie will wonder where I am."
He nodded, and got up. Thankfully, he was wearing shorts. Tessa tried not to look at his abs.
He walked to the door slowly and slid a few buttons on the knob.
The door popped open with a click, and Will gestured exaggeratedly to it. "Well, goodbye, your royal highness," he said sarcastically, still somewhat half asleep.
She smiled to herself. It was kind of funny. She curtseyed to him. "Thanks sire," she paused. "I'm stealing this book, just so you know."
He frowned. "What book?"
"A Tale of Two Cities."
He smiled again. "Well, I've never liked that book anyways. But enjoy the first edition copy? And don't bother returning it."
She smiled back. "Thanks."
For once, Will had actually been nice.
~~~o0o~~~
"So, did you uh, sleep with Will Herondale?" Sophie's eyes widened.
"No!" Tessa covered her face, mortified. She was back at her dorm, and was sitting eating breakfast with Sophie.
"Nothing happened, I swear. He just let me stay over, and he ended up in my bed and saw me in my bra. We did nothing. I swear."
Sophie raised a delicate eyebrow. "Okays then."
The two finished their toast and tea and got ready for a shopping trip.
It was Saturday, and since school was not happening, they decided to go shopping.
"You need new clothes, Tessa," Sophie had said a few days ago when they planned it.
They got ready, chattering like usual and flinging clothes around their rooms.
Tessa picked out a tight grey dress, untypical from her normal garb. Sophie picked out a romper. They always dressed nicer for shopping.
"Okay," Tessa said, once they were both ready. "Which mall?"
"Im thinking Selfridges," Sophie said, glancing at the clock on the wall. "We have exactly four hours to shop, because we have to be back here at twelve to prepare for Maia's birthday party. I feel so bad for her. Jordan and her broke up."
Tessa nodded sympathetically. They left their dorm and locked it behind them.
One party to another. That seemed like normal teenage school life, not that Tessa liked it, but it was the truth. High School was just so party-filled. She often went to the library by herself, though.
~~~o0o~~~
The mall was packed. People milled about, carrying huge shopping bags and chattering on their cells.
"First store. Victoria's Secret," Sophie said. "I need a new pyjama set, as well as a couple bras. Mine went through the wash and didn't come out the same," she giggled.
Tessa snorted, and patted her purse thoughtfully. A Tale of Two Cities was in her bag, and she could at least read it while Sophie shopped at VS. It wasn't really her kind of store. All the lace and bright colours.
Once inside, Tessa sat in a chair and Sophie left to look around. When she came back, she was holding an armful of lace and satin.
"Tessa. You can't read. Okay?" Sophie plucked the book from Tessa's hands and shoved it in her own bag. "You my friend, are going to try these on!" She gestured to the armful.
Sophie shoved Tessa into the change room.
Tessa looked down at the armful of bras and lace nightgowns. Ugh. They weren't her. She wasn't provocative at all. And definitely not a slut.
She tried on everything. Finally, she picked out two things, that seemed a little less showy, and went to the cash desk. Sophie wouldn't let her leave the store empty handed.
At the cash desk, she paled. Standing there were Will, Jem, Gideon, and Gabriel, laughing and holding up a tiny bikini.
Will noticed her, and approached, flanked by Jem, Gideon, and Gabriel. "What are you doing here, Tess?" He asked, looking at the bra and nightgown she was holding.
Her cheeks reddened. "I might ask the same of you, William," she replied. The other boys laughed.
Will grinned cockily. "Tessa and I slept together last night, you know," he said to Jem and Gabriel and Gideon. Jem's laughter faded.
"We did not," Tessa said stiffly.
"Alright, tess," Will said,lifting an eyebrow suggestively.
"If you'll excuse me, I think I'm going to go buy this now," she said, and left Will and the boys standing there.
~~~o0o~~~
"Oh my god," Sophie," Tessa said to her friend during lunch at the food court. "I can't believe that I saw Will and the Shadowhunter guys at Victoria's Secret! What were they even doing there?"
Sophie grinned. "Maybe they were there with girls..."
Tessa nodded. She hated the idea of Will being with a girl, but she tried to push the thought away.
"Will's so insufferable, isn't he. Such a arrogant jerk, isn't he?" Tessa looked at Sophie.
"Yes. I've never liked him," Sophie said, twirling pasta onto her fork.
"I guess we'll hit some more stores and then go home, huh." Tessa nodded. "Yeah."
They finished their lunch and headed off to the next store.
Throughout the whole rest of their trip, tessa couldn't help thinking of Will Herondale, the by now imprinted in the back of her mind constantly.
It's the beginning of Wessa, I guess... How did you guys like this chapter? Sorry for the shortness of it... I'll try harder next time... And for the next chapter.. more Wessa? Or what? :)
