Love Is Just Too Much, chapter 7
(6 AM - Tuesday)
-Billie's POV-
I woke up and saw her beautiful face. Her eyes are closed as she was still sleeping beside me. She was much more beautiful when she was asleep. I brushed her soft cheeks and pushed some strand of her hair behind her ears. I leaned in and planted a kiss on her forehead.
I noticed her eyes started to flicker. Then, after a few seconds, her eyes fluttered open. She looked at me with her sleepy eyes. "Hey."
Is it just me or did I notice her sort of smiling at me? I think it's just me. "Hey." She replied back. I cuddled her in my arms as we sat together in bed. "What's the time?" She asked me.
I glanced my wristwatch. "Um, 6:15 am." I answered. "It's really early."
She nodded slightly as she nuzzled towards me. "Yeah, and I don't want to go to school."
"So don't." I said. "Just stay here and be with me." She didnt answer though. That's not a pretty good sign after all. "Okay, so maybe you need to go. I mean, you gotta secure a place in a college..."
She shook her head. "Oh, no. I'm not going to college. I'm just gonna lay back and do nothing." She said. "Maybe I'll get a job downtown and try to get some money." She said. Then, there's an awkward pause. "Hey, I've decided I'm not going to school today." She said.
I smiled wide. "Good." I replied. She looked up at me. I didn't know what to do. I just leaned in and gave her a quick kiss. Then, I nuzzled towards her ears. "I love you." I whispered softly.
"Mmm..." she replied. 'what was that supposed to mean?' I asked myself. As if she had heard me, she replied me back. "I love you too."
(10 AM)
-Ashleigh's POV-
Billie and I decided to grab some coffee in Starbucks and walk back towards his apartment later on. So, around 9:45 AM, we both walked out of my apartment and walked slowly towards Starbucks. When I say slow, I meant SLOW. I mean, Starbucks is just a couple of shops away. And we took our time and arrived there 15 minutes later. Pretty good, huh?
Anyways, Billie wrapped his right arm around my shoulders and I wrapped my left arm around his waist. Today's clothes are...a white hooded sweater with military baggy pants. My hair isnt combed as usual. And, yeah, eyeliners are a MUST! Billie, on the other hand was wearing a blakc t shirt with his usual black jeans which is tight at the bottom. And, yeah, he have this straight out of bed look. As in, his hair are standing in every directions. And yes, he too was wearing my eyeliner.
We were kissing around in Starbucks waiting for our coffee to be served when somebody called out our name.
"Billie? Ash?"
We both turned around and saw Mike and Tre standing not far away from us. 'Busted.'
"I knew something was up between you guys." Mike said. Billie and I broke apart and looked on as Tre and Mike took their seats in front of us. "So, howcome we didn't know about you two?" Mike asked the both of us.
I looked down and pretended not to hear the question. Billie sighed. "Erm, maybe it's because I didn't tell either one of you guys?" Billie said. "C'mon, let's the drop the topic. Let's discuss about this later, okay?"
Tre nodded in agreement. "Yeah. I'm hungry."
(11.30 AM)
-nobody's POV-
So Billie, Tre and Mike have a gig in a nearby club. They're finishing their sound checks right now before performing later that night. Ashleigh bailed out since she had some other things to do in her apartment. The guys have already packed their things and they decided to walk towards their jamming studio.
"So how long have you guys been together?" Mike asked.
Billie looked up to him. "I, uh, a couple of weeks ago maybe?" Billie replied. "Why?"
"No reason." mike said. "No doubt, she's pretty." Mike said to Billie.
Billie smiled and nodded. "Yeah, no doubt."
Billie, Mike and Tre walked in their recording studio. Tre sat down on the worn out sofa and let out a long sigh. "Damn, that sound check was really tiring."
"God, tre, you're such a complainer." Billie said.
All three of them feel silent for a short while before Mike speak up. "Howcome we're not as close we used to be?" Mike asked.
Billie shook his head. Tre shrugged. "I don't know, Mike. I mean, yeah, we're really close last time." Billie said.
"I guess each one of us have our own lives." Tre said.
Billie and Mike nodded. "We shouldn't be this way." Mike said. "I want us to be back like we used to. Like, if I have any problems, I'll go to one of you. And you guys do the same too." Mike said. "So, are we agree on that?"
"Yeah, sure do."
