Love at First Sight, chapter 1
Sitting alone in your garage playing your guitar (which looks just like Billie Joe's guitar named blue, but is black and doesn't have as many stickers) you're waiting for the rest of your band to show up to start band practice. Your friend Kirstin played drums and your friend Brandi plays bass. It was 9:00pm and they still hadn't shown up so you picked up your cell phone and dialed Kirstin's cell phone number.
"Hello." answered Kirstin.
"Hey it's Colleen." you said. Alittle pissed off that you had been waiting so long.
"Hey Colleen, Brandi is here you wanna talk to her?" She asked. Sounding alittle funny to you.
"No that's ok just get over here will ya, I've been waiting forever." you said into the phone.
"What are you talking about?" Kirstin said obviously confused at what you had just said.
"Hello...band practice! Where are you guys?" you yelled, definetly angry that she had forgotten.
"We're at my house, my brother is having a party, and I think we are alittle drunk. Hehehe." Kirstin said slurring her words alittle.
"Ahh...alright sober up and we'll practice tomorrow." you said as you hung up the phone without saying goodbye to your band mates.
You continued to play your guitar since you were bored and nothing else to do. You just say there alone playing random notes and chords. You closed your eyes and tried to think of words to go with the chords you were playing. You started to hum a tune to yourself. Then you stopped playing and decided to go inside since it was getting cold. Just as you opened your eyes you made eye contact with a someone who was walking by your house at that exact moment. Your eye lock only lasted about a minute but it felt like eternity. He had black spiked hair and amazing green eyes, which you could even see from where you were sitting, and he wore all black. You shook your head trying to break you out of the trance you were in. You stood up holding your guitar and walking out of the garage closing the door behind you. Stepping into your house you went to your room and placed your guitar on it's stand and proceeded into the living room, where you plopped down on the couch and closed your eyes thinking about the green eyed mystery man you had just seen. Suddenly there was a knock at your front door, your eyes snapped open and you jumped up to answer it. Opening the door your heart leaped to your throat as you came face to face with the green eyed mystery man you were just thinking about.
"Hi." he said.
"Hi." you said back.
"Uh...I was just walking by and heard you playing guitar really well, if you don't mind me saying, and I play guitar also and I just wanted to ask your name." he said obviously nervous, you could tell he didn't know what to say.
"I'm Colleen...and you are?" you asked, not letting your eyes leave his.
"I'm Billie Joe. Would you mind if I came in to talk?" he asked alittle shaky.
"No, I don't mind at all, come on in." you said moving aside so he could come inside.
You took a deep breath realizing you had just let the cutest guy you had ever seen into your house. Closing the door you turned around and watched as he sat down on a couch in your living room. Damn he had a nice as you thought to yourself, as you sat on the couch opposite the one he had just sat on. Your heart beat alittle faster as he got up from where he was sitting and sat next to you...close next to you.
"So what did you want to talk about?" You asked trying not to make eye contact with him, afraid you might get caught in the green eyed gaze once again.
To late, you looked at him only to realize that his eyes were even more radiant up close. The both of you sat there and talked about everything possible. You talked about families and how strangly both of your father's had died when you were 9 yrs old and Billie Joe's when he was 10 yrs. old. You talked about how both your mother's worked, Billie Joe's as a waitress in a local resturant and yours as a real estate agent who was always away on business. You told Billie Joe how you were always home alone because your siblings were all in college or lived elsewhere. You talked about music and how Billie Joe also had a band but had been with them for a couple of years where as you were just starting out. There were even a few moments when you would both go quiet and blush when looking at eachother. Billie Joe looked away so you wouldn't notice him blushing, he looked into your room. Watching him look into your room your day dreamed alittle about what could happen in that very room in the future. Billie Joe told you that he had a guitar just like yours but it was blue and it had many more stickers. He also told you how his dad gave it to him.
"I named mine blue, you wanna know why?" He asked as you nodded. "Because it's blue." he said with a smile as you both laughed.
Sadly looking at his watch Billie Joe said he had to go considering the fact that his mom would flip out because it was 1:00am, you had been talking for 4 hours. Standing up at the same time you walked him toward the front door. You both stopped and faced eachother. Billie Joe leaned down toward you and for a moment you thought he was going to kiss you but instead he wrapped his arms around your waist as you wrapped your around his neck and he pulled you close so you were embraced in a hug. You then realized this wasn't just any hug, you could feel his hands rub your back, so you snuggled your face closer to his and before pulling away you kissed him lightly on the neck.( Author side note: The whole hug part was came from an actual dream I had.) He said goodbye softly and you watched as he exited your house and walked down your driveway reaching the sidewalk. You closed the door and walked into your room, a smile never leaving your face. You put on what you would be sleeping in, which consisted of black shorts and a black spagetti strapped tank top that said Hurley. You walked back out into your living room and happiness over came you, you started dancing around your living room. Suddenly there was a knock on the door, the knock startled you and you fell, you felt a sharp pain in your leg but you didn't pay any attention to it and ran to the door. Opening the door you reviled Billie Joe. You smiled at him and he smiled at you, looking at your change in clothes.
"Um...Hi...Sorry to bother you I just forgot my sweater." he said.
"Oh, come on in and get." you said looking at the couch where sure enough his sweater sat.
He stepped in and looked you up and down hoping you wouldn't notice but you had. He stopped and stared at your leg, which made you feel alittle uncomfortable.
"Uh...Do you know your bleeding?" he asked pointing at your leg in the exact spot where you had felt a sharp pain in a moment ago.
"Oh wow I guess I am." you said wobbling alittle you couldn't stand the sight of blood.
You wobbled a little more almost loosing your balance. Billie Joe noticed this and grabbed your waist. He helped you into the bathroom and sat you down on the closed toliet seat. He knelt down infront of you and lifted your hurt left onto his knee. He grabbed a towel and began to dab away the blood on your leg. You looked away because you didn't want to look at the blood.
"Sorry so clumsy sometimes." you apologized.
"It's ok I'm just glad I was here to help you." He said looking up at you and smiling.
You could feel him slighly rub your leg, to calm you down or to just feel your soft leg. Either way you didn't care. He finished putting a bandage on your leg and you started to stand up you slipped and grabbed on to the first thing you could to stop myself from falling which just happened to be Billie Joe's belt. You smiled shyly as Billie Joe grabbed your arms and helped you up.
"You really are clumsy aren't you." he said with alittle laugh.
"Thank you so much Billie Joe." You said smiling as you both walked toward the door.
Billie Joe turned and faced you. You couldn't help but stare into his beautiful eyes.
"Um...I was wondering if you wanted to go to a movie or to get some coffee with me tomorrow?" he asked nervously.
"I'd love to." you said with a smile.
He smiled and said goodbye and walked out of my house and to the sidewalk I watched him walk away again. Damn his ass looks good you thought to yourself again. You ran to your room and crawled into bed. The sooner you go to sleep the sooner you wake up and have your date with Billie Joe.
"Hello." answered Kirstin.
"Hey it's Colleen." you said. Alittle pissed off that you had been waiting so long.
"Hey Colleen, Brandi is here you wanna talk to her?" She asked. Sounding alittle funny to you.
