Before They Were Green, chapter 5
*RECAP*
"You okay?" he asked Mike.
"Yeah. It's just I really hope Sweet Children makes it big," he smiled cheesily.
"Yeah me too I..."
"BILLIE! WATCH OUT!!!!"
*END OF RECAP*
Billie jumped off the swing and threw himself onto the ground just as a drunken teenager took a swing at him with a baseball bat. Luckily he missed. "Hey Sam!Come back here you fucking idiot!" another drunk teenager slurred at the first from the other side of the playground.
"Hehe I'm just havin...funnnnnn," Sam slurred swaying back and forth on his way back to the other guy. They both walked out of the park, laughing drunkenly. Mike rushed to help Billie up. When Billie had thrown himself to the ground, he also threw himself onto the rocks. When Mike had helped Billie up, he saw that Billie's jeans were torn at the knees and his knees were bloody.
Billie took a sharp intake of breath in pain. "Ahh!" he grimaced. His hands and elbows were also cut open, stained red blood shining in the moonlight. Both Billie and Mike were shaking in fear of what had just happened, Billie, being the one that almost took a blow from a baseball bat, was the most scared and he started crying.
"Shh. It's ok Bill, let's get you home," Mike soothed, still wide-eyed with fright. He let Billie put an arm around his shoulder and they both struggled out of the dark park, Billie limping. Mike kept darting his eyes around nervously threw the dark, scared if those guys would come back. When they finally arrived at Billie's house it was 10:05. Ollie just happened to look out the window to see her son leaning on his skinny best friend for support, Billie was clearly injured. They staggered up the front steps and Ollie flung open the screen door.
"What happened?!" she burst out. Billie was crying. Alan came over to the door.
"What's going on?" he asked, his brow furrowed with confusion.
"I was talking...*cry*...then he...*cry*... It hurts!"Billie whined like a small child. He was slightly hyperventilating.
"Alan, help Billie to the couch please," Ollie said in a concerned tone. Alan walked up to Billie Joe and Mike.
"Here, I'll lift you," Alan offered. He put his arm under Billie's legs and hid other arm under Billie's armpits. He lifted him off the ground and staggered, finally setting him down on the couch. Ollie got a wet cloth and wiped away Billie's tears. She gave him a hug, he cried onto her back but it turned to just sniffles.
"Mike what happened?" Ollie asked.
"I was just talking to him then the next thing I know I'm yelling for him to watch out cuz this drunk dude swung at him with a baseball bat," Mike said.Ollie gasped. "But don't worry he didn't get hit, he ducked down just in time onto the rocks and cut his knees, hands, and elbows," Mike explained.
"Oh my poor Billie," Ollie cried. That night Ollie had cleaned up Billie Joe's cuts and calmed him down. Wouldn't you be scared if someone had tried to strike you in the head with a baseball bat? Thought so.
*The next day at Tre's*
"So was it scary?"Tre asked, wide-eyed, looking up at Billie from sitting on the couch.
"Hell yeah!" Billie exclaimed. He showed Tre his busted up knees, hands and elbows.
"Ouchie-wowchie," Tre said. "Oh cheesie I love you so. You're so cheesie. You're a cheesie made of cheesie cheese. You cheesie..." Tre sang whilst stuffing his face with Cheetos.
"I think you've had enough of those," Mike laughed taking away the bag of cheesies from Tre but Tre wouldn't let go.
"Hey! Gimme back those cheese penises!" Tre screamed.
"Haha NO!!" Mike yelled, pulling the bag just like Tre. RRRIIIPPPP. Cheesies went flying.
"You okay?" he asked Mike.
"Yeah. It's just I really hope Sweet Children makes it big," he smiled cheesily.
"Yeah me too I..."
"BILLIE! WATCH OUT!!!!"
