Chapter 21 Can't resist

Iziah woke up in the morning feeling worse than ever, the alcohol over load wasn't the problem, she could remember her night with Randy, that was the problem, she had thrown herself like a lawn dart at Randy, and worse still he had rejected her. This is why she didn't like people, she was always the one that got rejected, usually she didn't care but this time she did care. She went up her basement stairs moaning and groaning, her hand still hurt and the memory of last night wasn't helping.

"And good morning to you" Raven smiled at her sister as she went to the jug for coffee. "You had a late night I take it?"

Iziah groaned sitting at the table, "I did something stupid, in the short of two days I've earnt two nails, see this is why I don't like people"

"I'm not giving you another one, member the last time we did that, you wound up in hospital"

Iziah finally smiled "Yeah that was a good day"

"So what did you do that was silly?"

Iziah groaned and put her head down on the table, "I threw myself at Randy,"

"Is he down there?"

"He rejected me, apparently I was too drunk for his liking, apparently I had to be drunk but not drunk, oh man thats confusing"

Raven patted her arm soothingly "I don't usually say this about a man that tried to make me his whore, but if he didn't fuck you while drunk, thats not rejection thats being a gentleman"

Iziah looked up at her like she just said something foreign, "Explain"

"He could of easily taken advantage of you, but he didn't. I don't know about you, but I don't know many drunk men willin to pass up sex"

"I guess," Iziah said slowly, she knew Raven had a point but it the rejection still hurt. "Is he out there?"

"Who?"

"Randy, last I remember I left him on the porch swing" Iziah looked to the front door, "Oh please don't let him be out there and he just heard everything I just said, oh that would make this day worse"

Raven got up and checked outside, there was no sign of Randy. "No Randy, but there is a note"

"Oh God what does it say?"

"It says, call me" Raven passed it to her sister making Iziah's face screw up with annoyance.

"Well thats nice, he called me an ox!"

Raven looked over her shoulder, "That means hugs and kisses"

"Oh ain't that sweet" Iziah gushed before screwing it up and tossing it on the floor. "Not interested"

"Iziah didn't you say that you wanted him?"

"No I didn't" Iziah banged her bad hand on the table making her yelp with pain. "But he had his chance last night, and he blew it which is a shame really because apparently I give really good head when I'm drunk"

"Just gonna ignore that entirely, Iziah I think you should give Randy a chance"

"Oh you mean like I gave Rey one, I've been hurt enough thank you very much"

"Fine, whatever, I don't care" Raven got up and put her plate on the bench, "But I think you should at least call him and tell him to leave you be and thank him for at least being a gentleman"

"Yeah, not gonna happen"

Raven just shook her head and went back to her room, if Iziah wanted to ignore Randy then she wasn't about to interfere.

Iziah looked at the crumpled bit of paper, her fingers drumming the table top, badly she wanted to pick it up and dial. Looking to make sure Raven wasn't watching, Iziah lept on the paper and quickly scoured the digits until they were stored in her memory. Still looking to make sure no one was around, she punched in the numbers and waited for the ringing to stop.

"Hello Iziah, I didn't expect a phone call this early"

She hated that he sounded so damn perky, he was meant to be nursing a hangover from hell, he was meant to feel as bad she did. He had no right to be happy. "Iziah?"

"Yes?" She bit out making Randy laugh

"Guess I deserve that even though I'm not sure why. So this phonecall?"

Iziah wanted to tell him to fuck off, tell him she wasn't interested. "I was wonderin why you didn't proceed last night when you could have"

"Like I told you, I would like to remember it in the morning"

"And what makes you think I would"

"You can reisist me all you want, but John has agreed to a blind date, and now you just gotta get Raven to agree"

Iziah let out a grunt "And would you like to make it a double date? Me and you"

"Are you asking me out Iziah" Randy teased bringing a smile to her lips.

"Yeah I guess I am, stop milkin it and give me an answer damnit"

"Couldn't let me have any fun could you?"

"You would of gotten that last night if you had said yes, now you gotta go through the datin methods"

"Sounds good, I'll accept your proposal Iziah, double date next week, what about Saturday?"

"Sounds good, bye Randy"

"Busted!"

Iziah jumped at the sound of her sisters voice, "Damnit girl, do you have to do that?"

Raven wrapped her arms around her sister "At least your trying again and Randy admittedly is very cute"

"Yeah I know, however there is a clause"

"Which is?"

"If I go then so do you, he's bringing a friend, so its a double date"

"Do I have too?"

"Yes, so put on your game face and be a good girl"

Raven rolled her eyes, if Iziah got a good date out of Randy then she would go, she just hoped that John would understand.
