PART TWO
Izzys P.O.V.
It felt great to leave Jace like that. Too bad that Clary having more guys will make it better for him. He may be my brother but sometimes I wish he wasn't. The way he treats girls is horrible. I won't let Jace make Clary into one of his conquests. Besides I'm pretty sure Clary is a virgin and doesn't just give it up to a few pretty words.
Ugh where is Alec? He deserves Clary not Jace.
Hopefully Alec won't take long. I have a lot to tell him. Knowing him he is probably blowing off steam convincing himself he never had a chance. I wish Alec would talk to me more.
O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O
Alecs P.O.V.
When I left the house I couldn't help but want to go back inside and bash Jaces head in. I wanted to know exactly what he did on his date with Clary. The entire time I was with her I showed her nothing but respect and when I put my arm around her I noticed her wince. Jace must have crossed some sort of line for her to react like that. I swear if he touched her against her will I will personally shove my fist down his throat.
After a semi long drive I finally arrived at my happy place. It was an archery range towards the outskirts of Alicante. When my dad said we were moving here I decided to look for a new archery range. Thankfully this one was only 25 minutes away. The one I went to back home was an hour away.
I've never told anyone I come to these places. I feel like they might misunderstand me more. This is the only place I can unwind and feel at ease. Besides, I look pretty badass holding a bow and arrow.
I make my way inside and give the guy my member information. I pick out a white bow with an emerald green grip. Clary has already changed my choices in colors. I usually just get a complete black bow. Now every time I see something with the color of her eyes I have to have it. If I could only just have her.
Two hours and many killed targets later I head home. Izzy will probably send cops to look for me if I take any longer. I finally feel ready to hear whatever Clary told her. I just hope she isn't going to reject me. But if she does I will never let Jace out of my sight. The moment he hurts her I will hurt him. Just because she isn't mine doesn't mean I can't still look after her.
When I walk in I head to my room but Izzy stops me at the top of the stairs and pulls me into her room. For a girl her grip is strong. When she's mad she sinks her nails in, it feels like a hawk is trying to rip your arm off.
She throws me to her chair and stands over me with her arms crossed. Shit I'm in trouble.
"Where the hell were you? Don't you want to know anything about Clary?" she said.
"I was blowing off steam. Finding out about Clary and Jace going out is not exactly good news. I just didn't want to be around when you told Jace Clary wants to be with him." I look away from my sister not wanting to see pity in her eyes.
"She never said anything close to that. Alec Jace fucked up on their date. It didn't even last 15 minutes. He took her to some coffee shop where Kaelie works and he acted like a jerk." She said smiling at me.
Jace fucked up. Omg I still have a chance. This is great. I feel my body relaxing. Izzy notices.
"Wait there's more you need to know Alec. But you have to promise you aren't going to storm out. Ok?" There's concern for me in her eyes. This isn't going to be good.
"Oh god what now? (She looks at me waiting) Ok I won't go away." I hold onto the chairs arms & wait for the worst.
"Thank you. Look Clary is obviously a great girl, she's pretty, popular, smart and nice, so it shouldn't come as a surprise that you and Jace aren't the only guys after her. (I stiffened) In total there are four guys. You, Jace, Sebastian Verlac and Raphael Santiago." She said.
I couldn't take it after that. I jumped off the chair and just paced back and forth. I promised I wouldn't leave. "Ugh" Four guys! Why did I think I would be anything special to her?
"Calm down Alec let me explain things. Sebastian is Clarys ex and she didn't even know about him until recently. Maia and I noticed it first, besides Clary doesn't really seem interested in rekindling that old flame. The only real competition is Raphael. He has been sweet and super romantic. He hasn't pressured her in any way. I have heard things about him though, like he always changes girls every other day, he's kind of like the original Jace of Idris." The moment she called him the original Jace I saw red.
"Then why are you letting him near Clary?! How could you be so stupid Izzy? I thought you wanted to protect her. Guys like Jace and Raphael don't change." I was fuming. I was still competing with Jace. In a way.
"I'm not going to let her get hurt. Maia and I have a plan. We have been talking and we are going to team up with Simon and her brother to keep her safe. If any of you four mess up we will be right there to tell her. We don't want her to get hurt. Besides the thought of you and Clary being together make me happy. I would love her to be my sister." She looked sincere.
"Really? You really like the idea of us being together?" I can't believe Iz is on my side.
"Yes. I know you will make her happy Alec." She brings me in for a hug.
"Thanks Iz." I smile at her.
"Oh shut up. Look there's more." She says
"Oh god not more guys I can't deal with that Iz." I place my head in my hands.
"No no no. It's actually a good chance for you to advance with Clary." She smiles and raises an eyebrow at me.
"How?" Now she has my attention.
"This coming Saturday is Clarys birthday party. She always celebrates it at the end of the month It was actually the 17 so don't worry about missing it. (I smile) So we are all invited. All the other guys will be there too though, even Jace. (I clench my fists) Calm down Alec he won't be near her. Actually none of you will. Clary is telling her brother and he is very protective so she will most likely not be allowed to have anyone of you guys around her for long. It's only fair." She waits for my response.
I hate to agree but she is right. It is only fair we are all there but not get to be alone with her. She must feel pressured to make a choice. I will make sure though to give her the best present. Jace will more than likely want to do the same. Bastard.
"That is good news Iz. Do you really think I have a shot with her?" I hope she says yes.
"Yes. Alec I don't just say it because you're my brother but because I know you're a great guy. Plus I would love to have her over all the time." A look of joy springs across her face.
"Thanks sis. Ok so I guess I'll just give her some space from now on. It's going to be hard since we have class together and practice three times a week." (I can't help but feel happy about that.)
"As long as you keep it light and not pressure her. Don't push your luck but be sure to make sure she knows you still like her." Izzy hugs me. "I would love to see you two together and happy."
"I would love that too." I kiss the top of her head. I have an awesome sister.
O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O
Clary wakes up and finds someone has their arm around her waist. She panics for a second before remembering Jon slept with her. She completely blanked on the events of the night before. Jon had been so angry with her. Well more like angry at what happened.
Oh well, he would have to get over it. As much as Clary hated to admit she did want to be happy and date. Jon apparently had been making difficult. Now he's screwed. With four guys after her it would be pretty hard to stop her. Too bad he has the team to rely on. Except for Jace.
(A smile draped across her face) that asshole was going to get his. Jon already knew about him and he more than likely won't like the betrayal of a team member. Clary could already picture all sorts of fun things Jon had planned for him. She wasn't going to stop him either. He deserved it.
"What are you thinking about Clare bear?" Jon's voice took her out of her daydream.
"Oh nothing. Just wondering when sleeping beauty was going to wake up on his own." She giggles at the look on his face.
"Sleeping beauty? I'm that good looking. Now I'm happy." Jon stretches and gives his sister a peck on the head. "Come on let's make breakfast."
(One breakfast later)
Jon and Clary are washing the dishes.
"So am I allowed to kill any of the four or do I have to wait until they fuck up?" Jon asks his sister. She nearly drops her plate.
"No Jon! Well only if they fuck up. (He smiles) Are you sure you're ok with this? I don't want you uncomfortable at my party."
She hears a glass break. Only then does Clary realize she never told him about all four guys being invited to the party.
"They what? What the hell Clary you mention this shit now?" Jon was furious.
"I forgot ok. We said we would finish our conversation today remember?" Clary wanted to hug Jon but was too afraid to.
After a long deep breath Jon's body finally relaxed.
"Just tell me everything but do it fast before I lose it again." Jon closed his eyes and wais for her to speak.
"I asked Maia and Izzy to help me out by having them talk to the other guys for me so I wouldn't have to look at them in the eye. Izzy is telling her brother and Maia has Sebastian and Raphael. They are telling them the situation and if they want to back off that I understand and it's ok. (Jon looks up at his sister obviously happy if that happens) We also thought it would be a good idea to invite them to the party since One: Izzy and her brothers live next door and they might crash it. Two: It's not fair to the others. Besides it's my party and no one else can decide who comes and goes." Clary looks at her brother letting him know the last part was for him.
"Ugh. Clary all I want is to protect you. You are the only thing in this world that keeps me sane. My entire life has always been about keeping you safe and happy. It's not easy for me to just let this happen. I mean you know how dad was when Sebastian became your boyfriend. He flipped. He was never calm the entire 5 months you two dated." Jon says trying to not look like the thought of his baby sister dating doesn't make him sick.
"Jon you and dad have done a great job in protecting me. Hell too good of a job. I am going to keep getting older. Didn't you think that the day would come when I would get married and have kids of my own? Just like you are big bro." she says.
"I don't like to think about that. And as for me I will always be a bachelor. Do you think it's fair to deprive women of my awesome body? I don't think so." Jon has a smug look on his face which causes Clary to roll her eyes.
"Back to my point. Clary I don't like it. Our parents will be gone and you will be surrounded by four horn dogs that could take you into any of the rooms and try to do something." He shutters at the thought.
"No they won't. I figured you would think that so I know Izzy Maia Simon and your wall of soccer players will be around me. It's always been like that when I go out with you and your friends. They treat me like a little sister." She crosses her arms on her chest.
Jon plastered a stupid smile on his face. "Yeah those are my boys. We all look out for one another. Too bad now we have that slimy piece of shit Jace to fuck up our close knit group. I knew there was something about him I didn't like. Well the good thing is that you know I won't allow them to be near you unless there are other people present."
"I know I figured. I feel safer that way too so it's a win win." They both smile. "Ok now you clean this up and I'm going to go get ready. Simon is spending the night here. Are you ok with that or did I need to run it by you?" she says
"No. Simon has gotten my approval after years and years of proving himself. So chill." Jon says sweeping the glass up from the floor.
"Simon isn't like other guys. He's better." And with that Clary leaves the room and goes to change.
O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O
(Noon: Simon arrives)
Simon walks In with his backpack and a small duffle. Jon is watching TV with a bowl of what looks like instant noodles.
"Hey" Jon nods his head at Simon.
"Hey Jon. Simon glances at the TV and then goes upstairs to Clarys room. When he walks in he sees Clary at her easel near one of her windows painting with the help of the natural light. When she sees him she runs to him and jumps wrapping her legs around his waist and her arms around his shoulders. He stumbles back and they fall on the floor.
They are both laughing now. Simon shrugged off his backpack and rolled her on the floor and tickled her. Clary started kicking trying to get away. He knows her weakness.
"No. Stop Simon you suck." She says through her laughter.
"That's what you get for nearly making my head slam on the table." Simon tickled her sides and she kicked him off. She hates being tickled there.
She rolled him under her and pinned his arms behind him. She learned a few things from Luke. Now was the perfect time to use them. Simon had a shocked look on his face. Clary had never been able to do that. She could get free but never become the aggressor.
"Now it's payback." An evil look manifested itself in her eyes as she began to tickle Simon. His weak spot was under his arms. He started twisting and kicking trying to get his arms free. Laughing hysterically like a maniac. Clary was winning.
"Stop. (Laughing) Stop. (Laughing) Please I give I give." Simon finally caved and Clary got off him.
She falls to the floor next to him.
"I missed you. It's been so long since I've seen you." She looks into his eyes.
"I missed you too." Simon has a sad look in his face.
"Why haven't you been around me as much as before? Are you mad at me?" She says
"No. I just wanted to give you some space to be with the girls. I know how much you have always wanted to have a girlfriend around. Maia is a friend but not a best friend. So when I saw you and Isabelle hitting it off I decided to give you two some time." He said.
"Awwe. You should have told me. I kept thinking this entire week I did something wrong. Oh and she prefers to be called Izzy." Clary looked relieved.
"No. I also kinda didn't want to be around Isabe- I mean Izzy. She makes me a little nervous. And I also didn't want to hear her and Maia talk about Sebastard being back in the picture." He looks away to not see Clarys angry face.
"Don't call him that! (She breaths out) Look there's something I need to tell you but I need you to just listen ok? (He nods his head) Ok. It's not just Sebastian who likes me, it's three other guys too. (He slowly turns to her with wide eyes) Yeah I know but it gets worse. Its Alec and Jace lightwood. Yes they are brothers. Worse they are Izzys brothers and they all live next door. Jace is in the soccer team with Jon and Alec is on the track team with me. The last guy is Raphael Santiago and Jon wants to kill him and Jace first. So yeah there." Clary braces herself for the storm.
"ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME!? This is what happens when I back off for a week? What the hell. Why hasn't Jon done anything? They live next door! I hate this. Ugh! HER brothers both like you? God this is just great." He's on his feet and pacing.
Clary sits up on the floor.
"What do you mean by HER? OMG you do like her. I knew that. You're just mad her brothers like me since it complicates things. Awwe Simon has a crush." Clary has a goofy grin on her face.
"Shut up. This is why I never tell you who I like." Simon looks at her.
"Oh come on. She won't care and neither should you. You should hang out more often here. Since she lives next door you might see her more. Plus you will know all the details of who to keep away from me." Clary gets up and hugs Simon. She looks up giving him a pouty face. He always caves at that face.
"Damn. I hate you. Fine. But I'm just afraid a girl like her wont like me. I mean look at her. She so out of my league. She on another galaxy." He slumps down on her bed.
"No she is not. She just has to get to know you and you two will be together in no time." Clary smiles
"Fine. Now let's get this day started. I brought DVD's and a lot of junk food. Let's start by watching 'Vampire Knight'" He says as her face lights up with the mention of her favorite series.
"I knew I loved you for a reason." She grabs his duffle and heads downstairs. Simon is right behind her. Their day was about to start.
Awwe. Simon and Clary deserved their day together. The next chapter will involve some slight Sizzy time. Only a little, I wouldn't want to give anything away.
