Waking Up To Screams., chapter 4
A few weeks later Jake was a normal boy and dangerous as ever. Billie and 80 were happy as ever. It seemed as though nothing could get better. Green Day had totally rocked the VMA's, Billie's relationship was the best ever, his son was a healthy little boy, what could have been better? But things never stay the same.
Green Day were on tour and they were getting awesome feedback from the fans and the media. The video premiere of St. Jimmy Live had came out, Wake Me Up was still topping the charts, Holiday was still in the countdown, and Bullet In A Bible was a few weeks from release. They were the most influential band of all time. But everything seemed so perfect, well, it was just too perfect. Billie thought it was getting a little redundant, Mike thought there were better ways to spend his time, and Tre was being a little whore. There were way too many arguments behind the scenes and even outside of their profession. Mike called Billie one day.
"We need to meet and talk." He said.
"Where? How about your house?" asked Billie Joe.
"Yeah, call Tre and tell him to be here in 20 minutes."
"So..." said Tre.
"I think we need some time off. I mean, like, our last North American tour date for this year was a few days ago, for like 1 month and a half. I am not saying we not talk to each other until the Brit Awards, but just do our own thing. You know?" Mike asked.
"Perfect. But our fans would think we are on hiatus like blink-182. Actually, I think Green Day needs something like that. A hiatus sounds like a perfect way to release some of this tension. We're so not gonna break up. It has been too long. But a break would work just fine. Tre, what do you think?" Billie said.
"Yeah. Sure. Let me just get out of here. I have a 3:00. Whatever you guys want. It is not like I contribute anything to this band anyway. Except for my utter devotion and time that could be well spent on other important things." He said.
"What the hell are you talking about?" Billie said raising his voice and standing up going over to Tre.
"Oh it's nothing your majesty."
"You know what, fuck you you little sick and twisted pervert. That might sound good to you, but you know what, just fuck off." Billie screamed and walked out.
Mike went upstairs in disgust. These were the guys who had been a forever band for over 17 years. There had never been a fight like this. Could this be the end? No. Never, not Green Day.
Tre had a plan. This little plan was called revenge. He called Adrienne. An hour later, she was convinced and willing.
