Lucky Charms, Saber Spoons, and GREEN DAY!!!, chapter 4
On the way to the hotel everyone was laughing and shouting, Question by Goldfinger was blasting through the speakers and Muffy and Talia were shouting to it.
"STOP COMPLAININ POINT YOUR FINGER I'LL TELL YOU WHO TO BLAME!" they shouted in unison, Tre was having just as much fun while Mike and Billie were just laughing at the three of them singing and waving their arms around. After the song the CD mysteriously stopped, no doubt the limo driver had had enough. It was late and the five started to get cozy. Muffy feel asleep in Tre's arms, while Talia was sprawled on Mike's lap, who was stroking her hair in his half sleep state. Billie Joe was looking around, realizing how much he missed Adrienne, Joey, and Jakob. To clear his head he took out his iPod and started to play some soothing Queen. The words to Bohemian Rhapsody were going through his head as he soon fell asleep.
Mama, just kill the man, put a gun against his head, pull my trigger now he's dead...
MIKE'S P. O. V.
The vehicle slowed to a stop before I knew it, it was a truly great concert. I jerked my head up, hitting Talia, who jumped and looked around her dazed, I grinned,
"Sorry I woke you, I guess I forgot you were on me"
She nodded at me, still partially asleep, I hugged her tenderly before waking up everyone else. Muffy was mumbled in many different voices and we all watched her, her eyes soon fluttered open, she gasped for air, she kept trying to get enough air, but it looked like she couldn't, once she got enough air she started sobbing and clutching Tre. She moaned in between sobs. Soon afterward, once she had calmed down she insisted on a cigarette and said she needed to take a walk. I asked Talia what had happened
"Muffy sometimes has bad nightmares since her brother left to war, she constantly thinks he is going to get shot and sometimes, like now, her family hasn't heard from Craig, that's her brother's name, in two weeks, her anxiety makes her doubly nervous. She'll be fine in an hour or so, just don't talk to her about it." Talia smiled nervously, I could tell she was worried about Craig and for Muffy.
"I'M GOING AFTER HER!" we heard Tre call before the door slammed behind him. Talia wrapped her arms around me "I'm worried about him too, he is a really nice kid, he's always treating me like a younger sister, like he treats Muffy, If something happened to him, I don't know what we would do." Her voice quivered, I hugged her tighter, now that I have met someone so close to me affected by this war... I suddenly felt a wave of anger wash over me.
"We better go to bed, it's been a long day, Where do you want to sleep?"
The floor's fine for me, you guys have been at it all day, you guys should get the beds."
"No, it's okay, I'll sleep with you on the floor." I grinned, we both got our sleeping bags and settled on the floor. I put my arms around her and it seemed like we talked for hours before we finally fell asleep in eachother's arms.
TRE'S P. O. V.
I grabbed a flashlight before running outside looking for Muffy, I shouted her name over and over. I finally saw a figure sitting slouched in a swing. The swing was swinging side to side slowly, I walked up to the one next to her and sat down
"So... Do you want to tell me what happened?"
She sighed took out two cigarette's from the box she had in the bag swung around her and offered me on, I took it gratefully and lit it with her lighter, I smiled, it had about a dozen marijuana leaves on it. She looked at me and I showed her why I was laughing she grinned, I patted my thigh and she strutted over and sat down, she inhaled deeply and slowly exhaled the curving and twisting stream of smoke before staring her story, she told me how her brother, Craig, had been MIA for two weeks and she didn't know if he was alive or not, Her voice was full of sadness, I wanted to dry her eyes and be able to make everything better for her. To lighten the mood I changed the subject
"Aren't you a little young to be smoking?" She grinned,
"I just started after Craig left, I hate smoking, I don't even know why I started, it is so stupid" I looked at the cigarette in my hand discouragingly and silently agreed with her. I flicked it on the ground and stomped it out, she did the same.
I pulled her into a long kiss, telling her evrything was going to be okay. We walked back holding hands, under a street light I noticed she was bleeding, I moved her hair out of the way She winced
"Are you okay?"
"What why? Whats wrong?" She looked worried I looked and the gash in her forehead.
"You're bleeding" Her hand came up to her forehead and gingerly touched the bleeding cut. She looked at her hand in shock.
"What's that from?"
"I-i don't remember." Studying her in the light I noticed scrapes and rips in her clothes,
"Did you get hit by a car or something?" I asked nervously, she looked away, remembering something and soon she hugged me tight, crying slightly
"I remember now!, It was so bad, s-so wrong"
"What? What happened?!" SHe clutched her stomach and turned around, throwing up.
"Muffy? Please tell me"
"He was big so b-big"
"DID HE TOUCH YOU?" I said loosing my cool, her eyes welled up with tears, turned around and bent over throwing up again. She whiped her mouth with her sleeve and looked at me with her doe eyes,
"I'm so sorry Tre" She whispered before she fainted
TALIA'S P. O. V.
I heard the door slam and quickly put on a shirt, I heard Tre heaving for breath,
"Wake up Billie." Tre Gravely said in my direction, I did what he said immediately. Billie woke up confused
"What the fuck?" He said sleepily
"Tre needs your help, NOW" I added to wake him up, He shot out of bed, wondering what happened, Tre placed Muffy gingerly on the bed next to Billie's, Billie and I must have put the two and two together to come to the same assumption
"Is she dead?" Billie bluntly said, obviously not fully conscious yet.
Tre gave him the darkest look
"No, now get me a fucking wet towel" Billie walked to the bathroom, obeying Tre's wishes. Once returned Billie handed the towel to Tre, who yanked it away
"Ok... You're so welcome" Billie said annoyed,
"CAN YOU NOT SEE SOMETHING WRONG BILLIE?" Tre yelled in anger before tears started to spill from his eyes, as I watched, completely oblivious to what was wrong with my best friend, I felt Mike's arm reach around my hips and his chin on my shoulder. A lump rose in my throat, I quickly pulled away and walked into the bathroom, I heard Mike following me...
"STOP COMPLAININ POINT YOUR FINGER I'LL TELL YOU WHO TO BLAME!" they shouted in unison, Tre was having just as much fun while Mike and Billie were just laughing at the three of them singing and waving their arms around.
