What a differance some wine makes, chapter 1
HANNE'S POV
I couldn't believe that I was going to shoot the promo photos for Green Day. I had loved Green Day since I had heard Basket Case come on the radio way back in '94. And now, in about 10 minutes they were coming in for their 1st of 2 photo shoots. If they liked it, they could be willing to do more. I checked out the 3 separate sets that I had gotten ready. I was doing individual shots today. For Billie I had set up a whole Red and Black theme with the hand with the Heart grenade as a backdrop. The back around was a vivid Red with the Heart grenade outlined in the back. He was going to be wearing all black with a red t-shirt under a black jacket and the black eyeliner and I just wanted to get some Close up shots and stuff. For Trè I had pretty much the same as I had for Billie Joe, just that it was Black in the back and he was going to be wearing all red accept for a black t-shirt and with red eyeliner. I wasn't shooting Billie and Trè though. I had 2 of my best friend photographers to do that. I would be shooting the whole band together though a few months later. I didn't really get why we were having the shoots spread out so far apart, but I really didn't care. At least I got to take pictures of them. That day my main focus was on my favourite member of Green Day, Mike Dirnt. He had been my celebrity crush for 11 years. Since I was 15 years old. I had the perfect plan for him. I had a pure white back around, and He was going to wear pure white, that and with his pure white hair. It would really bring out his beautiful blue eyes that you could really lose yourself in. Then I figured for the second part of the day I would throw some red wine on him and his clothes. Then I would make him maybe lie down on the floor, and with the wine bottle knocked over and it running out on the floor, just for shits and giggles. I really didn't know how the second part would turn out, but I figured, why not try it? I heard the door open behind me and it dragged me out of my thoughts. There they were, standing there each in there outfit. They all looked so amazing. My best friend in the whole world came out of the other room and smiled at them. She loved Billie Joe, and she was going to shoot pictures of him. The girl that was going to shoot Trè was named Kaz, she was a good friend of Mari's, I didn't really know her, but we were starting to get acquainted. She was a huge Trè fanatic though. They both came in and got there guys and I was left alone with Mike. He looked like an angel in the all white outfit I had for him. He smiled at me and my heart melted.
"Hi, I'm Hanne-Marie Braaten. I'll be your photographer for the day. But please, just call me Hanne, I hate the rest of it."
"Hanne, that's a pretty name. I'm Mike Dirnt, you might know that already. I can't wait for the shoot."
He smiled at me and we shook hands. I led him into the studio and smiled.
"Ok, first off I just want to get some basic shots. The whole white theme is to really bring out your fucking gorgeous blue eyes."
As I said that I blushed and looked away from him but I could see from the corner of my eye that he was smiling. I started taking a few shots and after about 20 I had gotton the ones I wanted.
"Okay then Mike! We are finished with the basic white!"
I flashed a smile at him and ducked under the table and pulled out the case of wine. There were 15 bottles of it. I had no idea why I had ordered so many, but what harm could it do? I poured to glasses full and walked over to him.
"Wine? I didn't know we were going to be drinking!"
He said and laughed. I smirked at him and gave him one glass and he took a swig of it.
"This is good!"
I grinned even more then and threw the other glass onto his chest.
"What the FUCK was that for?"
He shouted loudly. I went back to table and fetched the bottle.
"Sorry Mike, I had to surprise you with it or it wouldn't have splattered like that if you were ready for it. It's for the second part of the photo shoot."
He laughed and so did I. I poured myself a glass of the wine and drank it in one gulp and smiled at Mike as I filled both our glasses.
"Damn, no other girl I know can drink red wine like that!"
"Haha. I'll take that as a compliment! Now you lie down and hold the bottle close to the ground and slowly pour it out onto the floor, OK?"
Mike grinned and nodded and lied down on the floor. I lied down across from him and took pictures as he slowly poured the wine out. I got some great shots.
BJA POV
My photo shoot with Mari had gone fast. So I found this little room for myself as I waited for her to check trough all the photos and make sure she got what she wanted. At least out of the photo shoot. We had decided to go out for drinks later. She seemed really exited and I really needed to get out of my depression from Adrienne leaving me. That fucking bitch had gotten drunk in Italy and slept with another man. And worse, yeah, gotten pregnant. She now lived in Italy with the other man. And there was Joey and Jakob. As much as I wanted and missed them I knew I couldn't have them as I was leaving for a 2 year tour in a few weeks. I loved finally getting rid of Adie and her bullshit, but I really missed having someone to love and hold on to. I was suddenly jerked from my thoughts as something slammed up against the window that was in the room. I had not noticed it when I first walked in. The door behind me suddenly slammed open and Trè walked in with a smirk on his face.
"Guess who has a date for tonight?"
He said and sat down beside me.
"I do, and I can assume you do? But look at Mike."
"You do too? Great! Mike? What about him?"
I pointed out the window at Mike and his photographer.
MIKE'S POV
I took a big swig from the bottle of red wine. Hanne was standing in her skirt and t-shirt against the white background. She was breathing heavily, trying hard to suppress her laughter.
"You must have known Miss Braaten, that you cannot win a tickle fight with me! Though I will give you one chance to escape your horrible fate!"
"My horrible fate? What would that be? And how do I escape It Mr. Dirnt?" She said and bit her lip to keep from smiling.
"You must down that bottle if you giggle!"
I pointed to the bottle by her feet that was about 2/3 full. I walked up to her and slowly stroked my fingers down her neck. She shivered and I smiled, rather pleased at what I was doing. As she still didn't giggle, I blew softly into her ear. She let out a small moan as she bit hard down on her lip, both to try and suppress the moan and a giggle. I went around and stood straight in front of her.
"Stop biting your lip," I said and looked into her wide chocolate brown eyes. As I leaned down I could feel her hot breath against my face. It smelled good, like a cinnamon Tic Tac.
TRÈ'S POV
I stared at Mike in disbelief as did Billie Joe. I could not believe that Mike was in there making out with the photographer! Just as I couldn't think of anything that could make the situation worse, the door slammed open and in came Nicole, Mike'sgirlfriend.
"YOU FUCKING BASTARD!" She screamed and Mike pulled away from Hanne. Nicole stormed first up to Mike and slapped him, and then slapped her. "NEVER contact me again you ass!" She yelled and stormed out of the room again.
"Did that just happen? Did Mike just get dumped?" Billie asked a little shocked. I nodded my head and just then Mari and Kaz came in and said that they needed some more pictures.
MIKE'S POV
"Oh my god. Are you Ok?"
"Yeah, I am, what was that about?"
I rushed over to her and put my arms around her. She was red where Nicole had just slapped her. I bent down and felt that it was warm, but also that it was damp. I kissed it and looked her straight in the eyes. She had tears in them and then she said in a kind of high pitched voice.
"Did I just cause you and your girlfriend to break up?"
"Don't worry sweetheart, if I can call you that. I have been looking for an excuse to leave her. And now when you came along, I couldn't just let you walk in and out of my life. I really like you, you know. You are fun!"
I bent down and kissed her passionately. I broke apart from her and looked at her longingly, and I smiled. She smiled at me and pulled me down to her and whispered into my ear, breathing heavily.
"I live about 10 minutes from here. Wanna come?"
She looked deep into my eyes and I nodded my head vigorously.
