END RECAP
***Back to Danni now***
Once Tre gets off the phone, we drive back to his house. He directs me to the bathroom and i hop into the shower.
***TRES POV***
Im sitting on the couch watching TV while dannis having a shower. I can slightly hear a mumbling kinda noise. I walk to the bathroom, and it becomes clearer now. Open the door about one inch and can see her, thru the frosty glass, dancing in the shower singing American Idiot. 'Thats sooo cute!' i think to myself. "HEY!" yells Danni. "You perve!" she laughs. I quickly close the door. "Woops" i giggle to myslef.
***Back to Dannis POV***
I get out of the shower and dry myself off. Then I realise I have no clothes. So i call out to Tre for some clothes and he brings me one of his tshirts and Claudias pants. "Thanks!" i say. I get dressed and go back into Tres loungeroom. "Hey" i say. "Hey baby, do the clothes fit?" he asks. "Yeah, there great, love the t-shirt!" i laugh. Its green and has a picture of a clover on it, and around it, it says, 'kiss me, im punk!' "Yeah, I dont know if you remember, but i wore something siumilar to that in the Nice guys finish last clip. "Oh yeah!" i exclaim. "Want something to eat or drink?" asks tre. "Just a drink thanks" i answer. I follow tre into the kitchen. "Fancy some chocolate milk?" asks tre in a posh accent. "Yes thankyou, sir" i answer. He puts syrup in a mug and adds milk. "There you go, me lady" he says, and bows down. "Why thank you" i giggle.
Tre goes and has a shower and i wait in the lounge room and watch tv. He returns and we head off to the studio. "Hey, um, do you think billie and mike will think that our relationship is weird cuz youre like half my age?" i ask. "Well, i duno, but theyre pretty understanding. They know what the feeling is when your in love and it doesnt matter what age differece. I mean, look at tom cruise and katie holmes! They are soo happy together, did u see tom on oprah?! he was jumping all over the furniture! if i was on oprah, i would too. because i feel the same way about you as he does katie." answers tre. "Aww, thats cute! Ok then ill take your word for it." i reply.
We arrive at the studio. We get out of the car and walk into the studio. "Hey guys! This is Danni, the girl I spoke to you about."declares tre. "Hey! Im billie joe! nice to meet ya." says billie, and puts his hand out to shake my hand. "Thats not how you do it!" i exclaim, and give him a hug. "Hehe, i have taught her well!" laughs tre. Then I move on to Mike and he says "Well you probably know who I am, nice to meet you." "Nice to meet you too, Mike." i reply and give him a hug aswell. Tre looks at me and puts on a fake sad face. "What about me?" he asks, in a sooky way. "Oh dont worry, I havent forgotten about you!" i exclaim, and put my arms around his neck and kiss him. "Ok, im happy now!" declares tre.
"So, your the winner of the drum lesson competition then?" asks billie. "Yeh, best thing that happened to me in my life." i answer. Tre takes my hand. "So, how old are you?" asks mike. "Im...ah...15"i reply. Billie Joe and Mikes faces go blank. "Oh, cool" says Mike bluntly. Bille joe grabs tre and talks to him privately. Me and mike look at eachother in confusion.
***Tres POV***
Billie joe pulls me to away from Danni and mike and says "Tre, what the hell are you doing?". "What do you mean 'what am i doing?'" i ask. "Shes half your age! if the media cuaght hang of this you would be ruined!" whispers billie. "I dont care, i love her, i have never felt this way before in my whole life. i didnt feel this much in love for claudia OR leisa. i dont care about age differences, let the media say what they want, they cant change the way i feel." replys tre, angrily. "Personally, i dont care how many years differences there are, im happy for you, she reminds me of you, humor wise, but im just concerned of what others will think." replys billie. "i dont care what other people think! what about tom cruise and katie holmes! Mark philopouses(spelling?) and that young rich chick, how come they can be in love with someone half their age and i cant?!" exclaims tre, getting a bit loud now. "Im not saying you cant, but if you put it that way, its ok." replies billie. "Thanks Billie...i really love her...it was love at first sight."says tre, calmer now. "I know how you feel, i had the same feeling with adrienne." says billie. "Then you know that i will risk everything just to be with her"says tre. "Yea i understand, man" said billie. Billie pats me on the back and we head back to Danni and Mike.
***Back to Dannis POV***
"what was that about?" i whisper to tre. "just about what we were talking about in the car, its alright now, though." replies tre.
"Oh ok...me n mike were just talking about how you were back in the Dookie days.." i laugh. "Miiike?? what have you told her?"asks tre in a sarcastic tone. "Oh nothing..." grins mike. We all laugh. "So...you play drums huh? you in a band?" asks billie. "Yeah, were called Dollhouse. You guys are our inspiration. My friend ash, our lead guitarist, would kill to meet you, and our bassist, erin, worships you, mike." i answer. The guys blush. "Cool!" they reply. "So then i guess you looked up to tre?" asks billie. "Yeah, and i still do." i answer, and smile at tre. "Your guys are so cute together, you bring out the teddy bear in tre!" laughs mike. "Hey!" exclaims tre and shoves mike in the arm. We laugh.
I feel i vibration on my leg. Then we hear American Idiot in beep form. "Oh its my phone...hang on one sec."i say. I answer my phone. "Hello?...yeah its me....yea...oh...ok...alright then...ill be there soon...bye.." "Who was that?" asks tre. "It was the hotel..they said i have to check out now because i was only booked in for two days...shit! i was supposed to hop on the plane to go home..but ive met you now, i dont wanna go back home!" i yell. "You can stay with me, just call up your parents and...oh yeah...how are you going to say that your staying with me...i dont think they would apporve." sighs tre.
"I just wont tell them im with you will i? i hate my family anyways, i never want to go back..ill just call them and tell them that im staying with a friend that i used to go to school with but she moved here."i said. "Ok, if you think it will work?" asks tre "Yeah, my parents are stupid. they dont care anyways"i reply.
"I call up my mums phone....'hello mum...yeah im having fun...look im going to stayhere in the US for a while, i love it here...im staying with a friend...her name? ummm Grace...she used to go to my school but she moved here and i saw her at the shops...yeah ok watever im staying here ok...bye.' ok now thats done, i need to go and get my stuff from my room." i say. "Ok then, come on..alright billie and mike, come over tonight for some drinks, cya later." says tre. "Ok, well cya then..cya" says billie. "Bye!" says mike.
We arrive at the hotel and i shove all my stuff back into my suitcase. "Wow, nice room you got here!" exclaims tre. "Yeah its cool" i reply.
"Cya later glass rom!" i yell as i close the door behind me. I give the key back to the receptionist and we head off.
We get to tres house and tre says "ok, you can stay with me in my room, unless you want your own room?" asks tre. "Oh no, ill stay with you...you keep me warm at night." i say. He hugs me and whispers "i love you...please never leave me". I whisper back "Never, i love you too much to go back to OZ and leave you here".
"Hey, we have alot of spare time from now until when the guys come over..wanna watch a movie? i have heaps!" declares tre. "OK!" i cheerfully reply. We look through tres collection of DVDS..hes right..he has HEAPS.. "How about a good horror? the grudge?" asks tre. "sure!" i reply. We play the dvd and snuggle on tres couch, with a blanket and a bowl of popcorn.
I clench close to tre when the scary parts come up. We scream together at the scary bits. I put my head on his chest and he strokes my hair. He takes my hand and i squezze it tight.
The credits start rolling i look up at tre and smile. "you know tre.." i say "as scary as that movie was, having you here close to me took my fears away." "Well, so long as im around i will never let anything happen to you."he replies. We kiss passionately and i start to take off tres tshirt. Things get a little steamy...
