As the four boys talked, a girl, with a purple, two-pieced bikini, walked up to them. "Hey, Slash!" She smiled. "Hey, Ann. How you been?" Slash asked, smiling back. "Its been good. You?" She sat next to Izzy. "Me too. Uh, guys this is Ann. she moved in last week." Slash introduced her. Ann was a pretty girl with orange, flamy hair. Freckles covered her nose and cheeks.
"That's Izzy." Slash said and made a gesture towards him, only him. "That's weird" Izzy thought. "Nice to meet you." Ann stuck her hand out towards the boy with brown hair and sunglasses. "You too." Izzy shook her hand and then put his own hand back in his lap.
Slash flashed him a smile, Izzy just slightly raised his eyebrows and crinkled his nose in confusion. "Did you guys hear about that party that Tommy Bass is throwing tonight?" Ann asked the group. "That Suite 19 guy?" Steven asked. Ann nodded.
"I'm good. He's just some dumb lanky kid. No one likes lanky kids." Steven scoffed. "Well, I'll just go fuck myself, then." Duff threw his hands into the air. "Except you. We love ya, Duff." Steven patted his shoulder and Duff laughed lightly with a faint, playful "Whatever."
"I'm not going. Axl isn't, so I'm not." Izzy shrugged. "Why not?" Duff asked. "Vince might be there."
"More petty fighting between those two?" Slash shook his head while smiling. "Vince lit some shit on fire and blamed it on him, a call went home to his mom and that fucking junkie, free-loadin', asshole of a dad," Izzy paused before going on, "So I slipped Vince's girl some tongue. Axl doesn't want to deal with more of Vince's shit, especially since its summer."
"He should still go. If Vince pulls shit he should know he, at least, has you, if not all of us." Slash lit a cigarette. "I know, but I'm not makin' him do anything he doesn't want to." Izzy said, Slash nodded.
"Is Axl the hot-head?" Ann asked. Izzy smiled, "Yeah, he's got quite an attitude."
"Well, if you do go to Tommy's party, do you wanna pick me up and go with me?" Ann smiled at Izzy. "No, sorry. If I go I'm goin' with Axl." Izzy slightly shook his head. "I need to talk to you." Slash stood up. Izzy looked at him, confused.
"Now! Urgent! Get the fuck up!" Slash impatiently waited for Izzy. "Alright, alright, chill!" Izzy sighed and got up with Slash. Slash dragged him behind the pool house. "What?" Izzy asked. "Ann just asked you out, dumbass!" Slash whisper-yelled. "I'm aware!" Izzy whisper-yelled back.
"Then why did you say no?"
"I told you, I'm not dating anymore. I'm tired of dating girls I don't like."
"Just try. You never know. Its summer dude, I'm trying to get you a girl."
"No. I'm not saying it again."
"This isn't normal, dude. People might start thinking you're gay or weird."
"You don't get it! None of you fucking do!" Izzy's anger rose quickly.
"Look, I'm not trying to piss you off but, you hang out with Axl too much."
"Go fuck yourself! I don't need your bullshit!" Izzy walked off, leaving Slash behind the pool house. The last part of the conversation was heard by the others.
