Jace Gets Kicked in the Butt

Dedicated to Jenny because this book wouldn't have been the same without her, she has awesome ideas, and she herself is one of the most awesome people I've ever met in my life so far. :P

  There I was, just a-shooting with a bow. Long came some shadowhunters and they stayed a while. Said, “Help me kill this cow, and kick him in the butt...

  Just a random song that’s playing in my head.

  I munch on a blueberry muffin while studying Alec’s face.

  Call me a stalker. I don’t care. You’ll probably stare at Alec if you ever get a chance to in you puny mortal life, thank you very much.

  He is annoyingly beautiful. He has long, thick eyelashes, full lips, and angular cheekbones. I still remember the hue of Alec’s eyes: Electric blue. Like a son of Zeus's. There is something about  how he acted before that leads me to the conclusion that he is insecure, unlike Jace, who takes advantage of his own charms. That make him, somehow, more beautiful. But right now, Alec is asleep, all the self-consciousness and cautiousness drained out of him. He looks younger, maybe fifteen or sixteen instead of eighteen.

  Okay, I’ll shut up.

 I pick up another muffin from May’s pan(FYI, May can conjure up any kind of food with her frying pan! Even Happy Meals! Toys not included.) God, they taste awesome. It's made partly with ambrosia, and the whipped cream on top was nectar. When I finish it, I feel rejuvenated and not at all tired and grumpy. My friends obviously feel the same. I spot May looking intently at Jace. Like I said, a lady’s charm, that boy.

  For what seems like forever(or maybe just 10 minutes), Alec’s eyes slowly open. Eyes like sapphires, I think. 

  Before he can ask anything, I automatically respond, “You’re in the infirmary in Camp Half-Blood. You guys passed out.”

  He sits up and shakes his head. “Crazy day,” He mutters.

  May speaks up, “It’s going to get crazier.”

  Rita takes a bite out of her second muffin, “I’ve got that feeling also.”

  I sigh. “You know, when you almost see the Minotaur naked one morning,” I say with a pitiful smile, “You’re pretty much in for a rough day.”

  Alec nods, exhaling. “I’ll be ready.”

  “And when you think things get any worse,” Jenny says mysteriously, ending with a whisper, “It does.”

  My mental picture: A cool gust of wind blowing dead leaves off shriveled trees(that kind of rhymes!). Nice job, Jenny.

  I don’t know if being parabatai makes them have a weird domino effect, but the next thing I know is that Jace is awake. 

  “Clary!” He yells. No respect, dude. Not only Izzy and Clary are sleeping, you know.

  “Dude,” I say in an exasperated tone, “Chill. She’s RIGHT NEXT TO YOU!” For some reason, Chris Brown ft. JB's “Right Next To You” is playing like a broken record in my head. Even though the song is mostly by Chris Brown...I don’t like JB! I’ve only heard the tune once many years ago! Why the hell is it back?! The only thing I remember from the music video was that it was Armageddon(probably), the gf(probably) fell into a black hole(probably), and Chris Brown jumps in after her(I don't even want to say it again.)
