What's With This Girl?, chapter 2
We get to the club and we see that the lines are packed. Darby led us around the back way so we wouldn't have to stand in line. He knocks on the door and this huge bodyguard opens the door. Darby whispers something to the guy and he let's us in. The first person we see is Drex pacing the floor back and forth. I could tell she was nervous. "Hey guys." She said. "You made it that's great. Kira there's some people I want you to meet." She walks me and my friends to this place that kind of looks like a dressing room. We walk in the room and who do we see? Tre Cool, Mike Dirnt and Billie Joe Armstrong sitting on the couch. I could believe I was staring at Green Day. "Guys this is my little sister, Kira, and these are her friends." Tre was the first to say hi to me. "Hey Kira. Kira... That's a real pretty name." "Heh thanks." I said as I nervously shaking his hand. "I like your outfit." Was it my imagination, or was he flirting with me? It had to be my mind playing tricks on me, or me taking his compliments in a different direction. A direction I shouldn't even be thinking about. "You guys can sit down if you want?" Mike looks at all of us. "Yeah we're not child molesters." Billie says "Well... I would watch out for Tre." Tre just brushes it off and laughs. I tried my best not to look nervous as I sat next to Tre. "Are you always this nervous around people?" Tre asks. "I wouldn't know I haven't been around any famous people, except you guys." I said. "You don't have to be nervous we're not that important." Mike says. "Yeah." Billie says, "You know we actually suck." "We don't really play our instruments." Tre said "and Billie can't sing. That guy from New Kids On The Block does his vocals." We all start cracking up. We spent hours in that room just talking about stuff. I even got the balls to tell them that I can sing and play guitar and drums. Tre was really fascinated by that. "I'm sorry guys but I'm going to have to take these guys from you. Just a quick sound check." Said Drexel. We watched the guys act like babies screaming they don't want to go as they slowly walked out of the room. Monty sat next to me and whispered, "Don't think I didn't see that." "See what?" I asked. "You were looking at Tre's ass." Damn! I was hoping she didn't see that. "Wh-Wha- What? No I wasn't." "Don't give me that innocent bullshit." Monty said. "I saw you. You were staring at his ass. And don't think I didn't see that he was flirting with you. I swear if you were five years older, he would have you back at his hotel room fucking your brains out." "MONTY!" I screamed. "That man's married for God's sake!" "Yeah... Have you ever heard of adultery?" "Monty, you're sick." Monty just looked at me devilishly and sat back down next to Ricky. Was she right? Was he flirting with me? What if I was five years older? What the hell am I thinking? This is crazy, he wasn't flirting he was just being nice... Right?
Meanwhile at the guys sound check....
"Kira's kind of cute." Tre said. "Not like I want to get with you cute, like little 7 year old you see in her little church dress cute." "Quit the bullshit Tre. If that girl was 21 you'd be making a pass at her." Mike said. "Yeah did you guys forget something? I'm fucking married. Oh yeah and another thing, that girl's 15." Tre said. "But even I can admit that girl's cute." Billie said. "She's got a nice rack for a girl that age." Tre said. "TRE!" Mike yelled. "What? I'm being honest." "I got to admit her boobs are as big as Adie's" Billie said. Mike just laughed. "Oh what so Billie can talk about the girl's tits but I can't?" said Tre.
Back at the dressing room, Dannie and me started to talk a lot. He told me stories about his hometown and his family. He was actually really nice. But my mind was still on Tre, wondering if Monty was right. It was true what BeBe said; I do have a crush on Tre. But it's a stupid crush. So what if he likes me. Well that would be great but he's not going to leave his family for me. An hour had passed and the guys came back to the room. "Okays guys we're kicking you out." Mike says. "Yeah the guys have to get ready it's almost time to start letting people in." Drexel says. Drexel walked us out of the room and into the club. "The place looks great Drexel." Donnie said. 'Thanks Donnie, I hope everyone else thinks that." "Drexie, don't worry so much. Everything's going to be fine. Trust me." I did my best to help my sister calm down, but I don't think it worked. She still looked so nervous. The club finally opened at it was a success. Green Day was fucking amazing. Drexel told me that this was the most successful opening she had ever seen.
After the party and everyone was gone, Darby took the boys home, but me and Monty stayed a little while longer. We wanted to help Drexel a little. After a while, Monty and me were left alone with Tre, Billie and Mike. "So... " Mike said, "Did you guys like the show?" "You guys were fucking awesome!" Monty says. Mike looks over at me. "What about you Kira?" "You guys were amazing." "Dude I'm fucking hungry I didn't eat any thing in hours." Billie said "I can ask my sister if they have anything in the back for you guys." "You know what, I'll go look. You stay here Kira." Monty said. I looked at Monty knowing she was up to something. I was left alone with the guys. Shit. I started to get nervous again. "You're getting all nervous again." Tre said. Damn. He noticed. "Well I can't help it." "It's ok just calm down." Tre puts his hand on my back. I think he was just trying to help, but it just made me more nervous. "Yeah I don't think you're helping her very much." Billie said to Tre. "Hey you guys. Drex says that you have to get it your damn selves." Monty said "Oh yeah that's real nice." Mike said. "That's what she said." "Ok fine come on Tre we'll get it ourselves." Said Billie. "But I'm not the hungry one. Mike is." Tre said. "Ok fine then Mike let's go." Billie said. "Hey, I want to go too!" Monty said. Billie smiled at Monty. "Okay, let's go." Monty got up and ran over to Mike and Billie. When they weren't looking, she winked back at me and walked away. I knew that bitch was up to something. She purposely left me here with Tre. Now I started shaking. "You okay?" Tre asked me. Yeah I'm fine. Is it getting cold in here?" "Yeah it's getting kind of cold. So... Can you really play drums?" You could tell he didn't know what to say, but he wanted to say something. "Yeah, I can play drums. I can play other instruments too." "Like what?" Tre says. "Um... Guitar, bass, keyboard, piano, harmonica, violin and... " I did not want to tell him the other instrument I could play. "And...?" he said. "Umm... I can kind of play the accordion" "Really?" "Yeah." "Heh me too." "No fucking way! Are you serious?" "Yeah." All I could do was just smile at him. "I want to hear you play." He said. "What the accordion?" "No dummy, the drums. My drum set is still on stage. Why don't you play something?" "Uhh... Ok" We walked out to the stage and he gave me his drumsticks. "Okay play something." "Play what?" I asked. "It doesn't matter. You can play nursery rhymes for all I care. Just play me anything." I thought of the first song in my head and it was Basket Case. After I finished the song I was terrified to ask Tre for a reaction. But I did. "So what did you think?" "That was fucking awesome." "You really think so?" "Hell yeah. I know people in bands that make millions of dollars who can't play that good. I want to hear you play guitar now." "Um... Ok guitar or bass?" "Um... Bass." "Okay." I played No One Knows this time. "Hey what's going on?" Mike says. "I wanted to hear her play bass." Tre said. "You should've heard her play drums." "That was Kira?" Billie said. "I thought that was you." "No that was Kira." Tre said. "Damn." Mike said. "She's just as good as you." Monty, me, and the guys talked for about an hour until it was time for us to go. "Come on girls," Drexel said. "You bother these guys long enough. I have to get you home." "Aww, do they have to go? We were having so much fun." Tre cried. "Yes they do you big baby." Drexel said. "Well can I take Monty and Kira home?" Tre said. "Ok but take them straight home. My mom is already pissed that I let my sister stay out so long even if it is Friday."
We all walked out to the cars. Drexel, Billie and Mike got in their cars, but not before giving me and Monty hugs. We watched them drive off and Monty just smiles at me. "So you guys want to stop and get something to eat before I drop you off? There's got to be some place opened late." "Well Taco Bell stays open till 3 around here, and it's now 1:30." Monty said. "Then it's Taco Bell we go. You guys don't mind if we make a little stop do you?" I didn't want my mom to get pissed at me, but come on Taco Bell with Tre Cool? Who would turn that down? So I said yes.
By the time Tre got Monty home and me it was 2 in the morning. We dropped Monty off first. While giving me a hug, she whispered in my ear "You make sure you call me and tell me what happened." Tre droved up to my house and I can see that my mom's bedroom light was still on. Not a good sign. "This is you house? Pretty nice." "Heh thanks." Before I got out of the car Tre and me talked a little bit more. I got the guts to tell him about the relationship between my brother and me. After a while I realized that it was 2:45 and I should really get in the house. E got a pen and a piece of paper and wrote an address on it. "What's this?" I asked. "The address to my house. I was thinking maybe you could write me sometime, tell me what's going on with you. I didn't want to give you the address to the Fan Club thing because I wanted to make sure I actually fucking get it. Oh yeah and don't feel bad if I don't answer you right away. Most of the time I'm on the road and stuff." "Tre I understand. ' I told him. "I'll write you as much as I can." I couldn't believe what happened next. Tre gave me a kiss. On the cheek though, and he gave me a hug. I practically skipped all the way to the door. Then reality hit me like a fucking bullet when I opened that door. "Youkira Anne Maria Belle, where the hell have you been?" my mom yelled at me. It's almost 3 o'clock. Your sister got here 45 minutes ago, and Darby got here 2 hours ago. 2 GODDAMN HOURS KIRA!" "Mom it's no big deal. Drex knew where I was, and Darby said he'd take my friends home so I could stay longer." My mom's face got even angrier. "That's not what he told me. Kira go up to bed now. DARBY GET DOWN HERE NOW!" For the first time in years I actually worried about Darby. I hoped she didn't blame it all on him. I went upstairs and changed into my pajamas. Then I called Monty and told her what happened with Tre and me. "And you'll never guess what happened next Monty." "Oh my God what?" "He kissed me." "OH MY FUCKING GOD!" "Damn thanks for screaming in my fucking ear." "So are you going to write him?" "Yeah why not?" "I can't believe your friends with Tre Cool. Oh my God! What if you guys started going out? That would be so cool." "Get that out of your head we are not going out and that's final." "All right all right, whatever man. But really I don't know what's with you. It's like everyone thinks your amazing. Tre likes you, Rick likes you, Donnie likes you, and Dannie likes you. What is it about you that hypnotizes guys?" "Dannie likes me?" "Yeah he told tonight. Wait a minute... You like Dannie don't you?" "Well I'm not going to lie. I think he's fucking hot." "But you want to be with Tre." "Ok I think Tre's a great guy, and he so damn hot, but it would never work out." "Kira go to bed. It's late!" "Ok mom... Yeah Monty I'll talk to you tomorrow." "Ok Kira I'll talk to you later."
Meanwhile at the guys sound check....
"Kira's kind of cute." Tre said. "Not like I want to get with you cute, like little 7 year old you see in her little church dress cute." "Quit the bullshit Tre. If that girl was 21 you'd be making a pass at her." Mike said. "Yeah did you guys forget something? I'm fucking married. Oh yeah and another thing, that girl's 15." Tre said.

Back at the dressing room, Dannie and me started to talk a lot. He told me stories about his hometown and his family. He was actually really nice.

"Yeah the guys have to get ready it's almost time to start letting people in." Drexel says. Drexel walked us out of the room and into the club. "The place looks great Drexel." Donnie said. 'Thanks Donnie, I hope everyone else thinks that." "Drexie, don't worry so much. Everything's going to be fine. Trust me." I did my best to help my sister calm down, but I don't think it worked. She still looked so nervous. The club finally opened at it was a success. Green Day was fucking amazing. Drexel told me that this was the most successful opening she had ever seen.
