For the Love of My Sister

Chapter 9

I woke up with a pounding headache slouched over some random guy. Ironically this had been how I had woken up almost every day since I arrived in L.A. After adjusting my clothes and hair I made my way through the wrecked house to look for my friends who I came with the night before.

“Jackie come on get up” I nudged a passed out Jackie from the floor.

“Five more minutes mom” she moaned.

“Come on” I said pulling her arm, dragging her along my side through the house.

“Morning babe. Have fun last night” I felt a familiar pair of arms wrap around my waist from behind causing me to flinch.

“Get away from me” I spat as I realized it was my ex-boyfriend. 

“That’s not what you were saying last night” he continued to grab a hold of me and press his lips against my neck.

“Hey get away from her” I felt Jackie tug at him to get him away from me.

“Whatever you know you cant resist this” he said before walking away with a smirk on his face.

“You okay?” Jackie soothed me as gathered back my composure.

“Yeah come on lets just find my friends and get out oh here”

It was the last day in L.A. before flying back home and I was taking a bath in the guest bathroom of Jackie’s parents home. I had only been in L.A. for a week and I partied so much I still felt hung over. I was beginning to drift into a sleep when I heard my phone began to ring, it was Michael.

“Hey you!” I answered being careful not to drop my phone in the water.

“Hey how’s L.A. treating you?”

“So much fun but I’m so tired now, I can’t wait to be back home in my own bed”

“Yeah, according to your instagram you haven’t gotten much sleep this week” Michael joked.

“Don’t judge me I’ve missed my friends here and well we had to celebrate”

“Yeah well how are we going to celebrate when you come home, I’ve missed you” 

“Oh so you’ve missed me?” I continued to flirt back.

“Define miss. The road in our neighborhood has just been lonely without your crazy ass driving on it” 

“Jealous because I beat you last time we raced”

“If you can even call it a race”

“Okay then rematch! Loser buys winner coffee” Michael quickly spoke.

“Is this your way of trying to get me out on another date” I asked in a flirtatious tone. 

“Is that your way of chickening out because you know you’re going to lose” he shot back.

“Oh you are soooo on quarterback. I’ll see you tomorrow night”

“See you then. And hey if i don’t get a chance to talk to you tomorrow have a safe flight” He spoke before hanging up.

I settled back into my warm bath smiling ear to ear as I usually did after talking with Michael. The next morning was pretty rushed considering both Jackie and I slept in, so it was hurry up and pack and then off to the airport. Thankfully the flight back was only a few hours which I gratefully took advantage to keep on sleeping and before I knew it we were landing back home in Texas. 

“Heyyyy Izzy’s back!” I heard Maddie squeal from the couch as I opened the front door. 

“Missed you too kid” I said embracing Maddie in a hug and Dianna who was also in the living room.

“How was your flight?” Dianna questioned.

“Good, I slept the whole way.”

“Yeah because she was busy partying it up in L.A.” Maddie jumped in causing me to shoot her a look to shut up, considering she had a tendency to over share.

“Well I’m glad you had fun. Why dont you go upstairs and relax we’re going out to dinner tonight when Dallas comes over”

“Cool. And Demi?” I asked Dianna, considering I hadn't talked to Demi since before I left. She had called me a few times but I never had actually answered.

“You haven’t talked to her? She’s back in L.A. for the X Factor but she’ll be back a few days before Christmas” Dianna responded giving me and un easy look I guess she hadn't caught on that out of everyone Demi was the one person I was least close with.

“Oh yeah I totally forgot.” I saved Dianna uneasiness by responding before heading upstairs. I flopped onto my bed and rolled over to my side only to catch sight of an envelope on my nightstand. 

Izzy we need to talk when I get back from L.A. 

Demi

I read the note that was inside. What could Demi and I need to talk about, was she still upset over me yelling at her before I left. Either way it can't be anything serious I thought to myself I mean Demi knows nothing about me other than she easily ticks me off when she tries to act all authoritative on me.
