CN:V.3 - You Are Not The Boss Of Me

Jace watched Simon and Izzy bicker over something he couldn't be bothered about right now. He looked at them as he sipped on his mug of coffee.

It was as if he was in this bubble; separate from the rest of the world. It was peaceful.

Just as the rest of his body was waking up, there was the sound of the main door opening and Simon perked up. "Breakfast is here."

"Why are we getting extra...?" A tall dark haired man started saying as he walked into the kitchen. He stopped and stared at Jace for a few seconds before glaring at a grinning Simon. He stumbled a little as someone walked into him.

"What is the hold-Oh..." an Asian man said, walking around the tall man and spotted Jace. "Mr. Herondale...good morning."

Jace smiled and waved. "Hey."

Izzy snickered and nodded. "I think you broke him, Si."

Simon chuckled. "Do you think he'd let me kiss him?"

That got the tall man moving. "Try it and you'll be eating your meals out of a straw." He growled, dropping the bags in his hands on the table. He made his way to the coffee machine.

Simon gave a theatric shudder. "Baby, you say the hottest things."

The tall guy scowled. "Magnus..."

"He's teasing, Alexander." The Asian, Magnus, said. "Simon? A word."

Simon shrugged and walked out with Magnus, leaving Jace with the tall man and Izzy. Izzy rolled her eyes. "Jace, this is my big brother, Alec. We work with Simon."

"In security?" Jace asked. Alec stiffened and Izzy choked.

"Yeah, something like that." Izzy said. She rummaged through the bags and handed Alec a pack. Alec grunted and walked out of the kitchen.

She shook her head. "Don't mind him. He's just grumpy. And seeing you was kind of a shock."

"Why?"

"Well, you're our boss's grandson for one." Izzy said. Then she handed him another pack. "Hope you like cheese. Simon ordered that for you."

Jace nodded and thanked her. He looked at the door where Simon and Magnus disappeared through.

"Don't worry about Simon." Izzy said. "He's always getting into trouble."

Jace didn't like the sound of that. He actually liked Simon, even though the guy acted like he was a little unbalanced. Plus, the sex was topnotch. He wouldn't mind doing it again.

Just then Simon walked in with Magnus behind him looking exasperated. The Asian walked towards him.

"I really hope this won't get back to Imogen." Magnus said without preamble. "Simon is in enough trouble as it is."

Jace saw Simon roll his eyes and dig into the bags on the table. "What?"

"Imogen won't like that you and Simon hooked up." Alec said, walking inside. "This can't happen."

Jace laughed. "My grandmother doesn't like a lot of things. And you are not the boss of me."

Alec blinked and Simon snorted.

"I don't care what Imogen likes or doesn't like." Jace went on. "I am a grown man and if I decide I want to fuck my way through her company, she can't do a thing about it."

"Typical." Alec muttered. "Another spoilt..."

"Watch it, Lightwood." Simon cut him off.

Jace grinned. "That being said. Thanks for breakfast." He left the kitchen and walked back to Simon's room. He needed to get his phone and call an uber.
