Waking up this early in the morning was never my thing. Never had been never will be. But it was Isabelle's thing, she always came in, in the morning and woke me up. She never bought food with her though, which meant I had to get up and walk to the kitchen, which actually wasn't that far now, not since mum moved me to the spare room because she was planning to redecorate.
I put on my usual, black jeans and a green jumper, it wasn't cold but i didn't usually dress up for school. Isabelle was in the kitchen making some sort of concoction of food, Jace was sat at the table, writing something and Max was opposite him eating a bowl of cereal. I stuck some bread in the toaster, when mum walked into the kitchen. She kissed us all on the cheek and said goodbye before we headed to school.
My family wasn't one for big gestures but we showed small signs of affection, that showed we did care about each other, without saying anything.
I grabbed the toast as it came pinging out of the toaster and headed to the spare room to get my bag. Isabelle had offered to drive us all to school, she had only just got her license but she was more trusted than either me or Jace. Piling into the car, we dropped Max off and suddenly we were outside the large building that had the words "Edom High" plastered on the front, which is actually ironic because this place was very similar to hell in my eyes.
I said bye to Isabelle as she found her friends, Clary and Simon, they were just inside the doors as usual. Jace had gone off earlier claiming "he didn't want to be seen with us". I however had no one at this hell of a high school, apart from Johnathan, Clary's brother, who didn't want to associate himself with his younger sister, much like Isabelle didn't want to associate with me.
"hey Alec you ok?" Johnathan said as he smacked my back with his hand, quite firmly i might add.
"uh, yes i'm good, can't say the same for my back. what about you?" I said as I rubbed my back to try and alleviate the pain a little.
"oh yeh man i'm good" Johnathan had said once we reached our lockers "we've got that chemistry test today haven't we?" Shit I had completely forgot about that but I was good at science anyway so it didn't really matter.
"Yes we do, are you prepared?" I tried to keep the conversation going even though I knew it was going to end in about 0.2 seconds because I had math and Johnathan had history.
"I think so, right I'll see you in chem then" Johnathan said as he disappeared into a room, I continued walking, math was on the other side of school and I had 5 minutes to get there before the teacher would kick off about me being late.
I got there in time and sat and listened to Mr Garroway drone on about algebra or whatever he was talking about because I wasn't really listening.
The rest of the day went well, I hadn't thought about the doom that was waiting for me when I would reach chemistry. For one day everything in my life was going well that was until someone walked into me and sent me flying onto the floor. I hit the floor with a bang, and I hit my head I could tell because suddenly there was a sharp pain at the back of my head and a ringing in my ear.
"Oh my god, I'm so sorry" a familiar voice rang out, I had no clue who it was because my vision was blurred. I felt a hand on mine and on my back.
"I have to take him to the nurse" I could here them say, still no clue who i was looking at.
Next thing I knew there was a bright light in a room and then darkness.This is odd. I could hear myself talking but no words were coming out of my mouth, well actually it felt like my mouth was moving but i couldn't hear myself saying anything audible and it was still dark. Maybe this was one of those dreams where you feel like you're doing stuff but you aren't.
Suddenly there was a bright light. I could see everything again and there was a figure, still no clue who it was, until my eyes started focusing and I could see that it was, Magnus Bane. What the hell was he doing here?
"I need you to stay still. Your mum's on her way, but you need to rest so please stay still" I could hear the nurse saying before she walked away and into the office.
"You're awake then" Magnus said with a smile on his face.
"Uh, ouch" I went to say something but all I felt was pain, what the hell had happened?
"Hey she told you to stay still" Magnus said putting his hand on my arm, to try and stop me from moving my hand.
"I'm sorry, what happened? I can't remember" I asked assuming that Magnus knew the answer
"Well, I accidentally walked straight into you and you ended up on the floor and you smacked your head, I'm the one that should be sorry" Magnus explained. Of all the people that could've walked into me it had to be him. Magnus Bane one of the most popular people in school, walked into me and now we're in the nurses room and he's still here.
"Why are you still here?" I don't know why I said it, why did I ask?
"I thought I'd wait and check if you were ok, your friend, what's his name? Johnathan didn't seem to care. I can leave now though, if you want me to?" Magnus had walked over to the chair and was picking up his bag when I basically shouted at him,
"Oh no please don't leave, not until my mum gets here" I didnt particulate want Magnus Bane of all people to be here right now but I also didn't want to be alone either.
"Oh ok, sure" Magnus had a smile on his face as he brought the chair over to the bed that I was led on.
