What's Scarier? High School Vs Demons

Chapter 7- Friday October 5

Jace POV
       This was going to suck. We were in the car heading to some dumb club fair the school was holding. Apparently it's important or something, I never payed attention in class. When we arrived at school, we all went our separate ways. Some of my very boring classmates invited me to join them. The girls giggled way too much for my liking. One of my classmates, John or Jack or something, got me to join the football club with him. I thought it would be an okay club to join, far better than a lot of the other ones I had seen.
       I also signed up for fencing since I thought that it could be interesting. It seemed similar to sword fighting so I wanted to give it a try. Next to that table was the jewelry club. Even I know that jewelry and fencing are not similar things but they were put near each other anyways. I saw Izzy signing up at the jewelry table. My sister the jeweler, great.
     "Hey Iz." I say walking over to her.
     "Hey Jace, signed up for anything?" She asked.
     "Fencing and football." I respond.
     "Good job Jace! As you can see I'm signing up for jewelry." She says pointing to the form she was filling out.
      "Yeah, have fun with that." I said quickly as I notice some girls gesturing for me to come over there.
      "My will is in the 2nd drawer in my dresser. Just in case something happens." I said, mostly as a joke to Izzy. I grudgingly walk over to the group of smiling teenagers.
      "Hey....Jace." This blonde girl whose name I forgot said, staring at me.
      "Hi." I responded back to her. I spend the next painful moments trying to escape these girls. Thankfully Alec called me around 9pm telling me to meet him by the gym doors.
       "Hey what's up?" I said when I got to the door.
       "You done with the clubbing?" He asks.
       "You probably shouldn't call it clubbing." I said trying not to laugh.
       "Oh right. Well I signed up for a club and would like to go home." He replied.
       "Yeah I signed up for 2, wait what did you sign up for?" I asked knowing that Alec doesn't like to do these things.
        "Archery. Where are Izzy and Clary?" Alec replied, quickly changing the subject.
        "I don't know." I said as we started looking for them.
        "Jace...!" The girl I was with earlier called. I quickly ducked into the nearest bathroom.
        "What the heck Jace." Alec said as he closed the bathroom door.
        "They won't leave." I replied.
        "Just tell them you have gonorrhea." Alec said.
        "ALEC! no! Absolutely not." I said shocked Alec would say such a thing.
        "Saw it in one of the movies Izzy's been watching. Lets go Jace." Alec responded, walking out of the bathroom. I sighed then joined him. Luckily what's-her-name had already left.
        About 5 minutes later we found Izzy and Clary sitting on a bench at the corner of the gym laughing. Alec shook his head and hissed at them to stand up so we could go. In the car they wouldn't shut up. Even when Alec turned on that terrible 1960s blues music we all hated so much.
       At home we ate some stew-like thing I heated up. It was very liquidy and the meat tasted a bit like cardboard. After like 2 bites Clary just shook her head and tossed the rest of her plate into the garbage. Izzy and Alec followed suite shortly after. I ate about half of it because I was hungry but even I couldn't finish it.
       We watched some youtube videos on the tv. Alec picked this 45 minute long documentary about like bobcats or something, I left after 2 minutes. Strangely enough, Izzy and Clary got through maybe 20 minutes before Izzy threw the remote at Alec telling him to turn it off. Then I put on some videos about conspiracy theories that Izzy, Clary and I got way too into. Alec just got annoyed halfway into the first one and sat in the kitchen. After that Izzy decided to cut apples for us to eat and she "accidentally" flung one of the pieces at Alec's head. He threw a dishcloth at her which she ducked to escape. Then Clary fell off the counter and we all just started laughing. It was a weirdly entertaining night.
      Clary and Izzy watched the discovery channel while Alec did laundry since it was his turn. I just ate chips while looking at the ceiling. There was this one black spot that I found particularly amusing for some reason. It was very different falling asleep to no noise this past week. Compared to falling asleep to the craziness of the institute that I was used to. A good kind of different.
