A New Beginning, chapter 19
This is the last chapter to this story. There will be a sequel to it soon called 'Is This Really What I Want?'
Okay fast forward 2 years and a bit. Melissa, Joey, Ramona, and Estelle are now all 18 years old. Still in school. It is 3 days before their grade 12 graduation prom. They have already graduated. The prom is on the night of the last day of school. Melissa, Ramona and Estelle have now formed a girl punk band called Disturbed Children (Steal that name and I will be pissed. That name is actually the name of my band. On with the story now) that is starting to get noticed. Disturbed Children is scheduled to leave on tour the day after the prom to be My Chemical Romances opening act. Melissa is vocals and lead guitar, and as you might have guessed Ramona is the drummer and Estelle is the bassist/back up vocals.

"Melissa come on. Why do you have to go on tour for so long?" Joey started whining about me going on tour yet again while I was washing dishes.
"Because Joey. How many times do I have to tell you? This band is what I love to do. We got offered to tour with MCR. Seriously we're still a little band and we're gonna be opening for big shows because MCR is a big band. We seriously couldn't have passed up this chance. This is our chance to get our music out there. If you'd ask your dad he'd say the same thing." I said putting a plate back in the cupboard.
"But why do you have to go for so long. I thought you loved me. It seems like you love this band more then me now." he said before jumping up onto the counter.
"I do love you Joey. You're the most important-" I started before being cut off.
"Well it sure as hell doesn't seem that way!" Joey yelled. "I love you. I love you so much it hurts. It hurts me when I see how much time you're spending with this band."
"Joey I do love you. I loved you since we first met what was it 2, 3 years ago. But this tour-"
"This tour means more to you than I do! You spend so much fucking time with this band it's hardly like I even exist to you any more! How do I know you're gonna stay faithful to me while your on the road?!? How do I know that your not fucking a different guy every night or even if you're fucking Mikey or someone from that band?!?"
That was it. That was the last fucking straw I thought. I slapped Joey so hard across the face I was sure there was gonna be a bruise there by tomorrow.
"Joey I loved you so fucking much. How could you say that?!" I yelled feeling tears forming in my eyes. "You know I would be faithful to you. But I guess you don't trust me. And relationships are built on trust. But I guess we don't trust each other so I guess there is no relationship between us anymore!" I yelled going upstairs. I threw all my belongings into my backpack and ran downstairs to see Joey still sitting in the kitchen. I knew I was gonna regret it right away but that didn't stop me. I took off the promise ring he gave me our first Christmas together, walked up to him and put it in his hand.
"I don't want this anymore. You promised to trust and support me and right now your doing neither." I said bitterly walking back to the door. "And find yourself another date for the prom. I'll see you at school." I said before walking out of the house.
Mom and Greg were gone yet again so the house was all to myself. I sat on my bed to be faced with a picture of me and Joey in a lawn chair at the 4th barbeque 2 years ago. The same one that was in my locket. I reached up to my neck and grabbed the locket. I was so mad at him I took it off and threw it at the wall.
I took out my cell phone and called James who was a close friend to both me and Joey.
"Hey James."
"Hey Mel what's wrong and don't say nothing because that'll be a load of shit."
"Can you come over? I really don't wanna talk about if on the phone."
"Ok I'll be over there in a bit." he said before hanging up.
*10 minutes later*
There was a knock at the door. I went and answered it to see James there.
"Hey Mel so what's wrong?" he asked stepping into the house and heading into the living room.
"Joey was being an ass." I simply said sitting down next to him.
"But this time it was different. He was complaining about me going on tour. He said he didn't trust me. He said that he wouldn't be able to know if I wasn't cheating on him. I just had it. After he said he couldn't trust me I left him. I told him that a relationship was built on trust and we didn't have that anymore so I left him and gave him back his promise ring." I said putting my face in my hands.
"Wow so it really is over between you two." he said just putting an arm around me for comfort.
"Yeah it is. But I'm sure with me being on tour it wouldn't be long until he left me and I don't need to be worrying about that while I perform."
"Yeah I guess your right. Look I know it's a little late to ask you but since you're not going with Joey to the prom anymore would you wanna go with me. I mean just as friends?"
"Sure James I'd like that." I said before kissing him on cheek. For the rest of the night we just sat and watched T.V.
*At the Prom*
"Mel I still can't get over how hot you look."
"James stop it." I said giggling as we walked into the gym.
"But it's the truth. Besides you're gonna be hearing it a lot starting tomorrow after your gig once you become famous." James said slinging his arm round my neck.
"Oh my god James." I said bitterly. "Look who Joey came to the prom with." I said while pointing at Joey and Kim.
"Never mind that two dollar hooker. Come on lets dance." he said dragging me onto the floor to dance along to Sugar We're Going Down.
A few songs later a slow song came on. It was odd at first but me and James danced along with the song. I know I should be here having a good time with James but I couldn't help but watch Joey and Kim.
"Why don't you go talk to your friends for a bit. I umm have something I gotta do." James said walking over towards Joey. I went and sat at a table with Estelle and Ramona but the table was right by were Joey and James were now arguing.
"What do you think your doing here with Melissa?!?" I heard Joey yell.
"Dude you said you didn't trust her. When she got home guess who she called. She called me! She wanted me to go over there and talk to her. She didn't want to go to the prom alone! And dude she's miserable being here and have you with this - this two dollar hooker!" James said gesturing towards Kim.
"I'll have you know that they pay me five dollars." Kim shouted making me, Ramona and Estelle laugh.
"You still have no right being here with Melissa!" Joey yelled.
"Ya well guess what... . I am here with her. And if you care so much about her then I suggest you talk to her before we leave tonight because she's leaving tomorrow." James said before walking away.
"Wow James is really pissed at Joey." Estelle said playing with one of the frills on her dress.
"Yeah Mel what happened?" asked Ramona.
"Long story short I left him because he said I was gonna cheat on him while we were on tour." I said.
"Awww I'm sorry." they both said giving me a hug.
"It's alright I don't need to have his negative attitude while we're on tour performing."
*end of the night*
It's the end of my senior prom. One of the nights I thought I wouldn't see because I thought I wouldn't graduate. Anyways it's the end of the night and Joey still hasn't talked to me. Me and James were about to leave before I heard someone call my name. I turned around to see Joey running after me.
"What do you want?" I said bitterly.
"I want - I want to say that I'm sorry. I shouldn't have talked to you like that."
"Damn straight you shouldn't have. But if you're thinking about asking me to get back together with you then you're out of your mind. I don't need to deal with your shit while we're performing. Look Joey it's nice and all that you said you were sorry but I don't think right now would be a good time for us to get back together. Look I - I gotta go. MCR is gonna pick us up at 8 tomorrow to head out for tour so I have to get going and back yet and still get sleep in. I'll look you up next time we're in town." I said before turning around to walk into James car.
*back at home*
"Thanks James." I said as we drove up to my house.
"Ya no problem." he said.
"I'll call you when we're on tour ok. I'll tell you all about it." I said before giving him a kiss on the cheek.
"Ok I'll hold you to that." he called back before driving off.
I ran up into my room and opened up my suit case. I threw in all my clothes. All my shirts, pants, shorts, socks, undies, everything. We had decided to have stage clothes that we would wear to every concert. We went out shopping and bought 20 sets of the same outfit each. We all have T-shirts and jeans, but everyone has a different style and color. I also packed my cell phone, my song book, cd's, Discman, and I found my locket on the floor that I had throw against the wall. I threw that in my suit case as well.
*7:30*
I woke up to my alarm and ran downstairs and ate breakfast. After I ran up stairs and had a quick shower. I came out, got dressed, did my hair, put my make-up on and by the time I had my suit case by the door the tour bus pulled up to pick me up. Both bands were sharing a bus so it was a pretty damn big bus. Oh joy this is gonna be fun having a just legal girl band and a guy band in the same bus. I grabbed my suit case and ran out the door leaving a quick not saying:
Mom you probably don't care but I'm gone on tour for 9 months. See you then if you haven't moved. From Mel.
I gave one of the helpers my guitar and they put it with the rest of the equipment then ran onto the bus to be jumped by Mikey.
"What the. I just get on the bus, you have 9 months to do that to me and you decide to do that within the first... I dunno 30 seconds you know me?" I said laughing.
"Yeah pretty much it." he said helping me up. "Your guys part of the bus is at the very back." he said picking up my suit case and started carrying it to the back. "Your Melissa right?" he asked.
"Yep that's me."
"Hey Mikey and hot chick move. I can't see the TV."
"Frank! This is Melissa. One of the girls we agreed to tour with." Mikey said.
"Oh. Well hey I'm Frank. Now can you move I still can't see the TV."
"Oh yes master Frank your wish is my command." I said sarcastically rolling my eyes and getting a laugh from Mikey.
We went a picked up Ramona and Estelle and then we headed off to our first stop.
"Welcome ladies to your first day of fame!" someone said. We all looked up to see an extremely pail and tired looking Gerard.
THE END
!Don't worry the sequel will still involve Joey somewhat. not as much but the sequel will help the sequel after that. just read the next two sequels I have out for it ok!
