1988, chapter 20
Tré laid back down on Maria's bed as Maria turned the ceiling light off and climbed into her bed snuggling close to Tré, he didn't mind.
"Hey Tré, I forgot my socks"
"What?"
"My feet are cold just a sec... ", Maria got back up and searched her draw for socks, Tré watched her silhouette frisking threw the draw "found em"
"Good", she snuggled back into her bed, Tré gulped "Hey Maria can I ask tell you something?"
"Yeah sure.... What did you do Tré?"
"Umm nothing... "
"Sure... " and Tré cupped her face and gently kissed her lips and to his surprise she kissed back, he let her go "Wow Tré... I didn't know you still felt that way"
"Well.... I'm sorry what I did and I still love you Maria Haushinka Montgomery"
"Well... I still have feelings for you to Tré but I shouldn't be doing this... I'm with Billie Joe now"
"He wouldn't know... I missed you Maria"
"Tré... " she let go oh him "I don't want to hurt Billie Joe"
"But babe, he wouldn't know"
"Yeah but I'd feel guilty"
"Why?" he stared at her face shining in the moon light seeping over the curtain
"Because... Because I just would Tré"
"Maria, I've watched him around you, he doesn't even notice when your not there"
"Tré... "
"Yes babe"
"BJ does care about me"
"Not as fucking much as I do Maria"
"Stop it... He loves me... He wrote songs for me"
"Did he ever tell you he loves you?"
"No but -"
"My point exactly", a tear tumbled down Maria's cheek
"He does love me" she wept, Tré used the palm of his hand to wipe the tear from her face, he learnt closer and once again gently kissed her, sliding his tongue in and moving himself on top of her, sliding his hands up her shirt and delicately pulling it off....

"How ya doing you fuckers!" screamed Billie Joe into the dodgy microphone on the make-shift stage at People's Park in downtown Berkeley, the crowd went wild -consisting of collage students, high school students, Gilman regulars and other random people who saw bands playing and decided to come and watch. "what? I cant hear ya's... Scream louder!" the crowd roared, Billie Joe was loving this "and that's what I wanted to hear!"
They started with their old band names song 'Sweet Children', this was a crowd favorite of course with a majority of the crowd singing along, this brought a even bigger smile to Billie Joe's face. Green Day then slammed into 'Green Day' with Billie Joe making sure the crowd knew that was their new name. Green Day then went into '16', and the songs he wrote about Maria - 'Only Of You', 'The One I Want', 'Dry Ice' and finally '1, 000 Hours' which the girls in the crowd loved. They went off with beer cups jammed into their hands and congratulations from all.
"We fucking rocked tonight Bill" smiled Mike shaking hands with people he'd never seen before until a young girl jammed a '1000 Hours' record into his hands and asked him to sign it, fluttering her eye lashes
"You guys re so completely cool! Can I have your autograph Mike?"
"Sure" he looked up at Billie Joe who laughed
"Looks like you already have groupies Mike!"
"Yeah I guess buddy"
"Hey Mike, where's Al? He like ran off stage straight away"
"Yeah I noticed that"
"Can I have your autograph too Billie Joe?"
"Sure kiddo"
"I'm not a kid, I'm 14"
"Oh sorry" he scribbled his name on the EP cover and walked off to find his friend, Mike didn't notice, well he was a little distracted.

Maria sat up panting
"Tré that was a once off okay?"
"You'll be back for more, I know you to well babe" he smirked climbing out of Maria's bed and pulling on his sweat pants.
"Tré I'm serious"
"Whatever Maria", she climbed out of her bed also and punched Tré's nose -hard "what the fuck?"
"TRE! I'm fucking serious! This will never happen again!" she spat
"Okay Maria, it won't happen again... But I really do love you babe" he smiled, rubbing his nose "I think you made it bleed-"
"Good" she hissed pulling on her own underwear and pajama pants "never again" she mumbled as Tré snuck out of Maria's room heading to the bathroom.
"Hey Tré, I forgot my socks"
