Maddi's Tales Part One Part One

Rachel nudged me forward. "Rachel, no! I'm not about to ask him out!"

"C'mon! You two have been officially going out for how long? And you still haven't gone out on a real date!" she exclaimed. She was my best friend and parabatai, but she was pretty pushy.

I'd been dating Theo for almost three months and we've never gone on a real date(staying after school and running around the hallways is not a date). Partly because I'm lazy fuck who would rather just sleep, and the fact that my whole family is made up of magical beings. Theo is human. I'm not. I'm worried. We've made it this far without him wondering why my blue hair never fades or finding out about my powers. "C'mon," she whined. "Just do it. He's already your boyfriend. It's not like he could say no, but if he does. Curse him."

"Rachel, no!" This sentence summarizes my relationship with her. She sighed.

"You never use your powers to your advantage." She rolled her eyes even though we both knew she was wrong. I used it to my full advantage.

"Whatever. Anyway, I'm not doing it. I don't even have anything planned." I hope that's enough to get her to stop. The real reason I don't want to ask him is because I don't want to mess anything up with him. If we go on a date, he's going to have to pick me up because knowing him he'd insist, then he'd have to meet my dad's. Then what if something does go wrong. Something is going to go wrong. I'm glad I met him, sure. He's cute with his accent and brown fringe. I wouldn't have met him if my parents hadn't put me in mundane school. They sent me to school because they wanted me to fall back on something if Shadowhunting didn't work out, and if the economy gets any worse, the Shadowhunter salary won't cut my need for concert tickets. But I love it, so more than likely that's what I'm going to do. Rachel's Mom liked the idea too so here she is with me.

"You leave that to me. I'll text you, and you go ask him." Rachel shoved me roughly one more time before dashing off. I didn't protest any more because I remembered she keeps a pocket knife in her backpack and has deadly accuracy like my dad. Like last time we were training I was fucking around and she almost cut off my ear. It wasn't fun.

Theo Ross. Probably one of the best guys at this school and he's mine. He was tall, had his hair in a fringe, and he was British. Must I say more to prove how perfect he is? "Hey, Theo!" I called to get his attention. There was a crowed hallway and he'll have a hard time hearing me, so using magic, I temporarily muted everyone. "Theo!" He looked at me and waved.

"Maddi, hey." He walked over to me and kissed my forehead.

I ran my hand through my hair. "Yeah, um. There was something I wanted to ask you." This is it. The moment Rachel has been pestering me to do.

"What's up? Walk with me." We stared to go down the hallway to our next class.

"Do you want to go out on a date with me?"

"A date? Aren't we already dating. Bane-Lightwood, I thought you already knew that we were a thing." He laughed it off. He preferred to call me by my last name when we were messing around.

"No I mean like a dinner type thing. We go out, eat, and have a good time. I don't even know Rachel's making the plans. I'm not sure if I should trust her though." Theo knew Rachel of course. She first tried to threaten him with knives to make sure he never hurts me, but I made sure that didn't happen.

He chuckled. "That sounds like fun. Should I pick you up at six from your house or?" Oh no. If he picks me up he'll have to go through my dad's. That's exactly what I don't want. "Maddi, you've gone paler than usual. What's wrong?"

"My dad's." I couldn't get any other words out.

"Maddi, is that what's bothering you? I couldn't care less if you had two dads. It doesn't matter to me. You turned out pretty great and I've never met them. I think I've seem one of them pick you up from school. The one with the rad tattoos. He seemed nice enough, and the other one can't be that bad. I insist that I come pick you up and meet them." Shit. He's too kind for his own good sometimes. And I guess my dad forgot his glamour. Thankfully, I put a rune on every morning to hide my runes. No one has seem them yet and I hope to keep it that way. At least Theo thinks they're rad on my dad.

"I guess you can. They've been wanting to meet you..."

"Great. It's a date. I'll see you tonight, Maddi." He hugged me and walked off to his class. I sighed. This is going to be a difficult night I know it.

~o~

When I had an hour til my date, I started to get ready. I wore a white shirt with a dark red flannel thrown over it. I wore black skinny jeans with my combat boots. If I had to say so myself, I looked pretty great.

When I went to my bathroom to do my makeup I was greeted by my Papa. Oh no. The classic pre date talk I've been dreading. My papa hands me my eyeliner. Here he goes. "You know I'm okay with having a boyfriend, your dad is too. The thing is that we're dad's. We don't want you to get hurt. Or for him to freak out over your powers, my powers, or dad's job." He shrugged as if to say "what can you do about it?" Not much, actually. "The least we can do is be supportive, but we can't do anything about your powers or that fact that he's a mundane."

"I know, papa. I just want this to all work out with him. He's my first boyfriend and everything." I was about to ask him if he remembered his first boyfriend, but then I remembered he probably didn't. Theo is so nice and kind and I want it to be perfect.

"Im just letting you know that we want you to be happy and we'll do our best to seem normal. Look in the bright side, Jace isn't going to meet him." I laughed. Uncle Jace has warmed up to me over the years, and he's the uncle who protects me from the boys while my dad's just make sure it's not a escaped convict.

I carefully winged my eyeliner and applied lip gloss. I've learned how to perfectly wing my eyeliner since I was thirteen. Having a Dad like mine comes with it's perks.

"You look great, darling. I've taught you well." He patted me on the back. "Good luck on your first date. Your dad's and I's is a story I have to tell you some day, but that is not that day." He laughed and left while I went back to my room to wait for him to arrive.

His car pulled up on our street a bit later than six. He knew where I lived so I just had to wait for him to get up here. My dad's were resting on the living room couch. "Dad, Papa, he's here." They sat up and tired to look more presentable. Thanks for trying. Soon enough the bell rang and I went over to answer it. In the doorway stood Theo wearing blue jeans and a simple black shirt with a black blazer. "Hello, Maddi." He have me a hug and went over to shake my dad's hands. So formal of him. "Hello Mr. And Mr. Bane-Lightwood. Pleasure to meet you. I'm sorry I'm late. A dog started chewing on my pants when I left my house." My dad and I both looked at my Papa. He mouthed "it wasn't me." I rolled my eyes.

"Theo is it? Nice to meet you," my Papa said. This was so cringy. My dads meeting my boyfriend and everything hasn't gone horribly wrong yet. It's a miracle.

"So we're are you two going?" my dad asked. Why does he always have to be the responsible dad? Whenever he was gone and it was just me and my Papa he would give me ice cream for breakfast. If I asked my dad for ice cream for breakfast he'd say no.

"Rachel texted me the details. We're going-" I stopped talking when I heard my dad's phone ring. He rolled his eyes and I automatically knew who it was.

"What do you want Jace? I'm a little busy right now." His eyes widened at whatever uncle Jace said. "There's how many? Are you serious! How many mundanes? Are you kidding me!" He immediately got up and ran to his room while still on the phone. Papa and I both looked at Theo and told him to ignore it. From the living room I could hear Dad tripping over things. He came running back into the living room with his gear on. "Magnus! What did you do with my bow? Shit! It's in the closet!" He ran back into his room. I sighed. This was the thing that was going to go horribly wrong. I was about to say something to Theo when my dad rushed in again. "Love you Magnus, Maddi! Gotta go! I'll be back eventually!" He ran out the door. My Papa looked at me. He was just as shocked as I was. "I think it's time for you two to go now." He got up and basically pushed us out the door. "Have fun! Come home before midnight!" He slammed the door and Theo and I were outside. So this is when things were going to get weird.

"What the hell was that? Why does your dad have a black bow and arrow in his closet? What's a mundane?" You are.

"Um he needs it for...hunting. My uncle and him hunt." Why am I such an idiot. That was the worst thing I could've said.

"But we live in New York City? And its night."

"My uncle is weird." At least that wasn't a lie. On the bright side my parents didn't have time to interrogate Theo. "Let's go. I'm hungry." I grabbed his hand and pulled him away from my house. I hopped to get far, far away from there. On the bright side my dad didn't break any of my papas jars for work. Now that would've been a disaster.

Rachel made a reservation at Cindy's, a small Italian restaurant. It's similar to Takis, but downworlders hardly visited. Rachel assumed it was safe for me because people I know are there, and its a mundane meet up. At least, she hoped it was safe.
