Soda Pop And Ritalin, chapter 4
After 35 minutes of setting up mousetrap and 10 minutes of playing it Billie-Joe and Mike finally arrived.
"We're back!" Mike shouted from the hallway.
"Oh, good! I'm starving!" Jackie said whilst getting up and making her way into the kitchen.
"But we've only just started... and I'm winning." Tre shouted after her. After a moment he realised she wasn't going to come back so he sighed, got up off the floor and followed her into the kitchen.
***
"That was good." Said Billie Joe leaning back on his chair.
"Yeh, I agree, well, ive got to go home now. I am gonna pass out when I get back. Anyway. See ya later guys, and nice to meet you Jackie." Said Mike and got out up of his chair, put on his coat and waved goodbye to everyone.
"Hold up Mike." Mike took a step back from the door and looked round the doorway to see what Tre wanted. "Yeh ditto to you guys. Bye!"
Tre opened the door and walked out along with Mike as Billie Joe and Jackie waved back.
It was silent for a moment until Jackie said, "Oh my god Billie, I am so sorry."
"What?"
"I forgot to order a room at a hotel."
"That's it?" he asked laughing.
"yeh, I thought... "
"Jackie, its ok! I like having you here, when you weren't here it was... lonely. I don't mind if you stay here for a week."
"Really?" she said a bit surprised. "Oh, ok then." She shrugged and smiled then looked at Billie Joe and kissed him on the cheek. "Thank You."
"Don't worry, take your time!"
"Do you think I could borrow something to sleep in please?"
"Yeh sure." He said, got off his chair and walked upstairs.
***
Jackie looked at Billie as he lay asleep on the bed. He looked so beautiful and innocent but she couldn't help thinking about Tre every now and then. It was like he was one of those annoying little pop-ups on the computer. She decided to to ignore and fell asleep on Billie Joe's arm. When she woke up it wasn't Billie's arm she was lying on. It was Tre's. But she didn't seem to think anything of it and gave Tre a long passionate kiss to wake him up.
"Wow, Jackie, you look beautiful in the mornings." He said when she had finished kissing him.
"Thanks." She smiled.
Tre looked into Jackies eyes for a moment and got lost for a second but soon snapped out of it and said,"Oh, do you wanna come have brunch with me, Mike and Billie?"
"Yeh sure. Where is it?"
"Starbucks. Mike loves it there so there's usually where we go."
"Nice."
***
When Tre and Jackie had got dressed and had something quick to eat they jumped into Tre's car and drove towards Starbucks.
"So, what did you think of Mike and Billie then?" he asked Jackie.
"Yeh, they're nice." She said and smiled at Tre.
***
Billie Joe and Mike were already sitting at a table upstairs when Jackie and Tre arrived. When they walked up the stairs Tre placed his hand in Jackies and smiled at her. She smiled back but as soon as they got to the table where they were sitting she immediately let go off his hand, walked over to Billie and gave him a long lovingly kiss and sat next to Billie for the rest of their brunch occasionally kissing and hugging him. After a couple of hours it was time to leave so they all said goodbye to each other and Jackie and Billie left Starbucks and got into his car. Just as they were about to leave Tre ran up to the car and was about to say something to Jackie when Billie interrupted him and shouted, "Don't you fucking speak to her! You don't think I know what is going on? It's so obvious. Go fuck yourself Tre!" And with that last comment he got a gun out of the pocket on his door, pointed it at Tre and pulled the trigger.
Jackie screamed whilst sitting up in the bed to find Billie slowly sitting up in the bed with her. He looked very dazed and said sleepily, "What?"
Jackie looked around in the dark room, then at the clock which showed 3.56am. She sighed and lay back down in the bed and said.
"Nothing, it was just a dream. Sorry if I woke you."
But by this time Billie had already fallen asleep.
"I love you." She said quietly, wrapped her arms around Billie's waist and fell back to sleep.
"We're back!" Mike shouted from the hallway.
"Oh, good! I'm starving!" Jackie said whilst getting up and making her way into the kitchen.
"But we've only just started... and I'm winning." Tre shouted after her. After a moment he realised she wasn't going to come back so he sighed, got up off the floor and followed her into the kitchen.
