Angel Face, chapter 7
"Wow.." Billie Joe said, not knowing whether to hug her, or to go find Tre and pound him into the ground. He chose to hug her.
"He didn't mean it, he's just angry right now, he'll get over it." Billie said.
"Yeah, I guess so. I mean, I wish he wasn't so mad, I wish I didn't feel so guilty, I wish a lot of things.." Morgan said, laughing.
"You shouldn't feel guilty, you didn't do anything wrong."
"I know, but it sure doesn't feel that way."
"Well don't. Listen, you want to go somewhere? We could go out to eat, or whatever you want."
"No..I think I'm gonna wait here for Tre. You know..so I can talk to him."
"Ok, you want some company while you wait?"
"That'd be great. Thanks."
Billie Joe and Morgan sat in silence while waiting for Tre. The only sound you could hear was the Tv. After waiting for about 2 hours, Tre came stumbling through the door.
"Tre..what the hell man?" Billie Joe said, starring at Tre with disbelief. He was completly drunk.
"Hey..look..," Tre began. "It's the bitch whore that dumped me!! How ya' doin'?"
"Tre..you're drunk.." Morgan said.
"Am not.." Tre said, as he tripped over his own feet, walking torwards the couch.
"So..what you two lovebirdies been up to?" Tre said, his speech slurred.
"Waiting for you, we need to talk, might be best to do it tomorrow..seeing as you're completley wasted." Morgan said.
"How many times do I have to tell you guys, I'm not DRUNK!" Tre yelled, putting fear into Morgan's eyes.
"Morgan," Billie Joe whispered to her, "Maybe you should go home, let me deal with Tre."
"No," Morgan began. "I'll stay."
"You sure?"
"Yeah, I'm sure."
Tre began rumaging through the fridge for a beer.
"Tre man, I think you've had enough.."
"I'm fine..."
Billie took the beer from Tre's hand, and put it in the sink.
"Hey, Billie Joe...you gotta take my beer too?? After you took my girl, you goin take my beer too??"
Billie Joe's face saddened at the state Tre was in.
Tre sat down and just cried, just sat there and cried.
"Listen, Tre..it's gonna be ok--" Billie began, putting his hand on Tre's shoulder.
"Get your mother fuckin hands offa me.." Tre said, slapping Billie's hand away.
Billie starred at Tre, and sadness filled his green eyes.
"And you...you..you bitch. You dumped me for him?" Tre said, looking at Morgan.
"Tre..I'm sorry.."
"Yea, well sorry isn't good enough. You break my heart, I'm gonna break yours."
Tre started torwards Morgan, only to be blocked by Billie Joe.
"Tre, don't...this isn't the way to solve this."
"Oh she had it coming, and so do you."
Tre pulled his fist back, but stopped when he heard Morgan.
"Tre, don't hurt him..." She sobbed.
Tre put down his fist.
"Why shouldn't I?" He said. "Why shouldn't I hurt him? He hurt me more than any punch ever could..you hurt me."
After saying that, Tre walked back to his room.
Morgan starred at the wall, tears running down her face.
"Do you want me to take you home?" Billie Joe asked.
"Yea, thanks."
Billie Joe walked her home, and opened the door for her.
"Actually," Morgan began. "Would you mind staying for a little while? Because Katie is out of town visting her parents, and I really don't feel like staying in this house alone."
"Sure no problem."
So Morgan and Billie Joe sat on the couch, and watched Tv until 4 AM. They fell asleep in eachother's arms.
-10 AM-
"Billie Joe...?" Morgan said, opening her eyes.
"Hey, yea, I guess we fell asleep on the couch last night, huh?" He said, stretching and yawning.
"I just hope Tre doesn't walk in.." Morgan said.
The door opened, and in walked Mike.
"Hey you guys...Tre has a major hangover, and is in a really bitchy mood, so I'm hangin out with you guys today." He said, not very surprised at the sight of Morgan and Billie.
"Yea, Tre gave us hell last night too." Billie said, rumaging through the cabniet, looking for something to eat.
"Is he okay?" Morgan asked.
"Yea, he'll be fine. Just a matter of advil and time." Mike said.
"Okay..good."
Billie Joe gave up on searching for food, and poured some orange juice.
"Dammit Morgan, you need some food around here." he said.
"Yea, I've been to lazy to go shopping."
"Consider it done." Mike said.
"Mike...you're a life saver you know that?" Morgan said, giving him a kiss on the cheek.
"Hey now.." Billie Joe said jokingly, pulling Morgan away from Mike.
"Well, you get one better than that then." Morgan said, and gave Billie Joe a peck on the lips.
Billie Joe stood there, still as a rock.
"Haha.." Mike laughed.
"I'm gonna go get you some food Morgan, be back later."
"Okay, thanks.''
"What was that for?.." Billie Joe asked, following Morgan to the stove.
"Because I felt like it." she said, turning around, leaning on the countertop.
They all the sudden heard the door knob turn..
"Morgan, what the hell are you doing with a boy in here?!'' Morgan's mom shouted.
"He didn't mean it, he's just angry right now, he'll get over it." Billie said.
"Yeah, I guess so. I mean, I wish he wasn't so mad, I wish I didn't feel so guilty, I wish a lot of things.." Morgan said, laughing.
