A New Beginning, chapter 5
***Billie Joe's POV***
Oh it's seven o'clock. I guess I should wake up the kids. I thought to myself as I was getting dressed. I went and got Jakob up first.
"Hey buddy. Time to get up. You have to get ready for school."
"Dad. Do I have to go? I wanna sleep."
"Yes Jakob you have to go. Now get up or else I'm not getting your guitar for you for a week."
With that Jakob sprang up and get dressed right away.
"Hey dad. Why did Melissa stay here last night?"
"Well her daddy died and her mom is away for a bit so she's gonna be staying with us."
"Yeah. It's like I have a big sister now!" he excitedly exclaimed and ran downstairs to eat breakfast. Next I went to wake up Melissa. I walked in the door and she must have been talking in her sleep.
"Die fucker. Die. Go to hell you fucking bastard. You fucking prick." I heard her say but it was muffled by the pillows covering her face. I gently shook her awake and she took the pillow off and slowly opened her eyes.
"You're a violent one now aren't you." I said jokingly as she woke up.
"I was having the best dream ever. I dreamt that I was beating the shit out of Bush. I guess it's just 'cause I'm not use to living in a country with a giant prick running it."
"Wow that's an awesome dream." I said with a laugh.
"Well I better go and get read for school. I'll see ya round." she said as she ran threw the door.
"Hey dad. Where's Melissa?" Joey asked scaring the shit out of me.
"Oh she went home to get ready."
"Oh. Well I guess I should walk her to school today since she doesn't know the way."
"Joey. If I didn't know any better I'd think you took a shining to this girl."
"Dad." he whined.
"You wanna bang her all night long." I said jokingly with a smile spread across my face as I was laughing.
"Kay dad no. Just no. Not right. Kay maybe I like her but I don't wanna fuck her."
"Joey!"
"Sorry dad. I mean screw her."
"Much better now go get ready." and with that he went downstairs to join Jakob with breakfast.
***Melissa's POV***
"What to wear, what to wear." I said to myself as I looked through my closet. I decided on my dark blue jeans, black studded belt, and my black Green Day tour shirt my older brother got for me when he went to their concert when he was 13 and I was 10. My parents said it was too dangerous for me to go and I didn't wear my contacts today.
I quickly tossed my hair up into a ponytail and but my eyeliner on. I ate a piece of toast and then brushed my teeth. I shoved my cell phone into my pocket but seeing as no one would need to call me I took it out. Stuck on it was my guitar pick necklace that was signed by Benji Madden. I went insane when I thought I lost it. I must have just stuck it in my pocket. I quickly put it on and just then there was a knock at the door.
"Oh hey Joey. Sup?"
"Oh not much. I was just wondering if maybe you didn't mind if you'd walk to school with me?"
"Sure just let me grab my binder." I quickly ran upstairs and grabbed my binder with all my school stuff in it. "Kay lets go." I said as I locked the door. We started to walk and there was an odd silence. I wanted to ask him but I was scared to.
***Joey's POV***
Kay I'm gonna ask her right now. I don't care if she says no.
"Umm hey Melissa. I was just wondering if.... Well I really like you and I was wondering if you would be my girlfriend?" I asked staring at the ground.
"I'd love to. I've been wanting to ask you but I didn't know if you felt the same way." she said and gave me a kiss on the cheek.
"You're not doing this just to try and get to my dad right. Cause if you are I'll dump your ass right now." I said looking at her. I've had to many girls trying to use me to get to my dad.
"Of course not. I'd never dream of doing that. I'm not a selfish bitch. Besides you're so cute. I mean your dad could be Michael Jackson and I wouldn't give a shit. Well maybe not Michael Jackson but you get the idea." she said as she gave me a hug. Just then I noticed a gold chain with a pick on it.
"Hey what's that?" I asked pointing to her necklace.
"Oh when I was 13 I went to a Good Charlotte concert and I get one of Benji's picks. I got him to sign it and I made it into a necklace. I've worn it almost everyday since." she explained. We soon arrived at school and I went with her to pick up her time table. Right after that we bumped into Estelle and Ramona.
"Hey Estelle, Ramona. This is Melissa. She just moved in next door." I said introducing her to them.
***Melissa's POV***
Joey had to leave right away but I stayed and talked with Estelle and Ramona. Their names seamed very familiar but I just couldn't place it. Oh well I'll remember if it's important. I was in 3 classes with Estelle and 2 with Ramona. We quickly became good friends and they were really nice to me for my first day.
"Hey Mel. You wanna come over to my house. I'm sure my dad won't mind." Estelle said.
"No I better get back tonight but maybe tomorrow." I called back as I left with Joey hanging off of me not wanting to stop hugging me.
We soon arrived back and we sat down and watched TV.
"Alright. We can still watch the 2nd half of egos and icons. I love this show. Oh god haha." I said as we switched the channel. It was on Green Day. "I love this episode. It's funny." I said making myself comfortable by placing my head on Joeys chest.
'Have you ever eaten a clump of a women's period before? ' asked Billie from on the TV.
"OH MY GOD. WHAT THE FUCK DAD!" Joey screamed as I started to crack up. No mater how many times I've seen this one it never gets old.
"Joey. What have I told you about swearing. And what?" Billie called from upstairs.
"Only when extremely pissed off or at the appropriate time. And what the hell was that about?" he replied.
"What was what about?" Billie asked with a puzzled look.
" 'Have you ever eaten a clump of a women's period before? ' What was that about. It was just on the TV. You said it in an interview." Joey replied being stunned still by what his dad had said.
"Let me guess. He just opened his mouth and out it came. Just like that." I said finally calmed down from laughing.
"Ya what she said." Billie said his face now a slight shade of pink from embarrassment. "I never thought that they would put that on that show. Anyways you two are looking awful close for being 'just friends'" Billie said.
"Oh we're more now." Joey said as he kissed my cheek.
"Aww how cute." Billie mocked.
"Dad shut it will ya?" Joey retorted.
"O. K. O. K. Oh and yeah me and your mom got invited to this Good Charlotte party on Friday night but I have to work late so I can't make it so you to could go if you want to." Billie said as he started to walk back up the stairs. Joey looked at me and I nodded.
"O. K. Dad we'll go." Joey called up the stairs.

For what started as a shitty week turned out pretty good I thought to myself as I climbed into bed. About 10 minutes later I heard my door open and someone crawled into bed next to me. They wrapped their hands around my waist and started kissing my neck. I figured out it was Joey. "Joey stop it. You can cuddle but you can't touch. Got it." I said while giggling and turning to face him.
"Got it." he said as he embraced me in a hug.
Oh it's seven o'clock. I guess I should wake up the kids. I thought to myself as I was getting dressed. I went and got Jakob up first.
"Hey buddy. Time to get up. You have to get ready for school."
