Would You Be Mine?, chapter 6
Recap
Billie said he would call to tell me when exactly we could come. Then we had to say goodbye.
End of Recap
Billie kissed me softly on the lips and so did Mike with Mel. I hugged Tré and Mike and we said goodbye. The guys went to a car that was waiting for them. We watched them driving away and then drove back home. While driving Mel told me everything about her and Mike. "Sarah, Mike is amazing, I mean AMAZING. I've never met a guy like him. We were in bed all the time. He is so gentle. I want to be with him forever." Then she asked: "How about you and Billie?" "I love him. We were in the park and had a lot of fun. We kissed a lot. He is a great kisser. But Mel I'm scared." "Why?" "He's so much older than me." "So what? Age is just a number. Mike was concerned as well, but he realized that it doesn't matter how old we are as long as we love eachother. And you love Billie and Billie loves you, so there's nothing wrong with it." "I don't know. And they are Rockstars. I'm afraid it won't work." "Sarah, don't think so much. LIVE! Your have to live. Follow your heart!" Mel said.
Mel dropped me off home and drove to her house. She also lived with her parents but we decided some weeks ago that we would move together. We already found an apartment and in two days we would move in.
I entered our house and my parents already waited. "Where the hell have you been?" my mom asked.
"As I told you the Interview took longer and we slept in the Hotel!"
"In the Hotel? How did you pay for it I wonder?"
"Alright, alright, I have to tell you anyway. We slept in Green Days hotel room. They invited us. And we will visit them in California in some days."
"What? How about your studies?"
"I already told you a hundred times before that I would take a year off."
"I don't understand why you want to do that. But do whatever you want. You're old enough." she said.
I went upstairs and first took a shower and brushed my teeth. Then I put out my dictaphone and started listening to the Interview. It was so cool. Then I started writing the article. I typed every word they said. I always had to smile. Lucky Mel, I thought, she has all the pictures from the Interview. She's probably looking at them right now.
Then I got tired and stopped. I went down to eat something and eventually went to bed. I instantly fell asleep thinking of Billie. I couldn't believe that he actually liked me.
I woke up the next morning still having Billie on my mind. I took a shower, got dressed and had some breakfast. My parents were at work already so I had the house for myself. I turned on MCR and started dancing around. After about half an hour I stopped and finished writing the Green Day article. Then I sent it to the editorial office. I called Mel. "Hey Mel, how you're doing?"
"Great. I couldn't stop thinking of Mike." she said.
"Yeah, I also couldn't stop thinking of Billie."
"Sarah, have you already written the article?"
"Of course. It's pretty cool. Do you want me to email it to you?"
"Sure, I'd love to read it. The pictures are also great. I already brought them to the editorial office."
"Great. Did you pack already? You know, tomorrow we will be moving together."
"Nah, I didn't but I will."
"I haven't started either. But I'm really excited. All right. I have to start now. See ya tomorrow."
"See ya"
I started packing all my stuff. I had just finished with the first box when my cellphone rung. I looked at the display: it was Billie.
"Hey Billie."
"Hey Sarah, how are you?"
"Fine. I'm packing my stuff because I'm moving tomorrow in an apartment with Mel."
"Cool. So have you already written the article?"
"Yap, it's great. I'll bring you a copy of it when it's released."
"Wonderful. Listen, I've checked the flights to San Francisco. You could come next Wednesday. The plane starts at 10:30 am in Berlin. I'll pick you two up at the airport. What do you think?"
"Alright. I'll tell Mel."
"Great. I'll buy the tickets for ya and sent you all the documents via email."
"Thanks Billie! I miss you already."
"I miss you too. But it's only five days."
"Yes I know. But this will be the longest five days ever."
"Alright. I need to stop now. Love ya, bye"
"Bye"
I hung up and called Mel. I told her about our flight but she already knew because Mike had called her. We were both really excited and couldn't wait for Wednesday to come.
Surprisingly the day went over pretty fast. I packed my stuff until 8 pm then I was so tired I instantly fell asleep.
The next day I woke up very early. I was so excited. Today would be the big day: the first step to independence. I had saved some money so everything would work for some months. But then I would really have to get a job. But first I would fly to California. Yay, I was so excited. It seemed as if my whole life had changed in the past days.
I packed all my stuff in my car and drove to our apartment. Mel was already there unpacking things.
"Have you brought already everything over here?" I asked Mel.
"Yeah, I couldn't wait so I started very early." she answered.
"I didn't get everything in my car so I need to get some more boxes. Will you help me carrying them into the house?"
"Sure"
It took us about six hours to get all things unpacked. Then we sat down at the couch and opened a bottle of sparkling wine. "To our new home" we screamed and drank the whole bottle. We called up some friends and invited them to have a party.
Our friends couldn't believe that we would fly to California. They always kept asking questions like: "Are you sure that was the real Green Day?" or "You made out with Mike?" and things like that. Soon we were really drunk. The living room was a mess but we had so much fun. It was about 3 am when the last guests left. We fell on the couch and slept until 1 pm.
I woke up with the biggest hangover. Mel was already up and made some coffee. She was literally lying on the kitchen table. "Sarah I feel like shit!" she said. "Me too." Then Mel's phone rang. It was Mike.
"Hey Mike ... yeah ... We both feel like shit ... . big hangover ... OK I will ... love you, bye."
She turned to me: "Mike says hello. They will fly to California tomorrow and prepare everything for us."
"Wow, I wonder what they are up to... "
Billie said he would call to tell me when exactly we could come. Then we had to say goodbye.
