It's Not As Easy As It Looks, chapter 4
I shot my eyes open to meet Billie's.. i shook my head and rubbed my eyes.
"I fell asleep huh?"
"Yeah.. I'm sorry for getting you pissed"
"My fault i drank it" I said stepping out the cab and stumbling into the building.
I pressed to call the elavator and Billie tapped his foot, i stared at it and it seemed like forever till one opened.
"Aha, this one has chosen our doom"
"Eh?"
"What?"
"What what?"
"Forget it" He sighed.
"Forget what?" I teased trying to wind him up as we got into the elavator, and ofcourse there was cheesy elavator music, i finally found the 74th floor button and waited for the doors to close.
"Wow were high up" I rolled my eyes.
"You don't say"
"No i did Jenni, you just have to be more mature" I blinked and stared at him, when the door opened for a couple of people to get on.
By level 23 it was jam packed and me and Billie were getting squished like sardines in a can. As the door opened again i sighed and watched as loads of people get off, but more people got on.
"It's like a fucking circus!" I shouted in a whisper. Billie held me as we got squished in the corner.
"You okay?" He asked with concerned eyes as someone stepped on my foot.
"OW! WATCH WERE YOUR GOING!" I yelled, my eyes filling up with tears, i was clostraphobic and this really wasn't helping.
"No i'm not Billie, i need to get off" Billie nodded and when the next stop came, we got off.
"What level we on?"
"50"
"24 levels to climb.. juuuuust fucking great" I sighed.
***
"It's okay for you.. your young" He moaned, as we walked up the stair case, slowing down and panting.
"Your only 11 years older, your just not fit"
"Hey! I run around stage on tours!"
"I know i was only joking" Billie pretended to sulk, but we had reached our level and it almost seemed that i dragged my feet into the studio.
"Where have you two been?" Then Wade notice we came through the stairs.
"Your joking me?" He laughed as he watched Billie sit down and rub his feet.
"Wimp" I muttered, i glanced around at Mike, Tré, Billie Joe and Wade, i looked at my shoes and noticed a patch of dirt, i shook my head and i jumped, as the sound of minority cut through the air,
"Fucking hell" I mumbled and looked at caller ID.
"Heya Jaz"
"Why do I have to call an American number to get to your phone?"
"'I'm in New York.."
"What?! Since when?"
"Like 2 days ago when I got my job over here"
"Job?! Why didn't you tell me?"
"Because..I dunno..sorta forgot"
"You forgot about your best friend? Charming"
"Oh fuck you, you could be happy for me"
"I am, but-"
"Then act it for fucks sake"
"Ya know what, i'm going to go, it's late over here in England"
"Yeh, must be nice" I held up on her, not giving a flying fuck anymore, I slammed my phone into my pocket and looked to the guys..silence loomed.
"I'm hungry" Billie said randomly, he made Tré jump who hit him.
"Oi, okay who's coming to the lobby with me?" No one said anything, but i put my hand up when i heard my stomach growl.
"Me" I smiled pathetically.
"Okay lets go" I got inside the elavator with Billie Joe and mumbled something when i remembered earlier.
"That was just rush hour" He said putting his hand on mine and trying to reassure me, i took deep breaths when the elavator shook.
"What the fuck was that?!"
"Fuck knows" He whispered looking at the ceiling like it was gonna give him fucking answers, there was another attack that threw me against the wall, i felt my lip and there was some blood.
"Fuckers" I mumbled as the lights went out.
"Great" Billie Joe muttered walking over to me and putting a hand on my shoulder, i started to have a panic attack already.
"Were stuck aren't we?"
"Looks like it"
"Ah fuck i'm such a jinx" I sobbed.
"Nah your not, we just went in the wrong time" I sighed, i could see my reflection in Billie Joe's eyes, i looked away knowing how much it hated me.
"Look everythings going to be okay"
"That's what you say"
"You don't trust me?"
"I don't know you"
"Yeah.." I heard him sigh and sit down next to me, i started to cry but i didn't want him to hear, but we was stuck in the elavator.
***
"Try the god damn button again then!" I yelled, Billie shook his head and tried.
"Nothing will fucking work! The power is out!"
"Fuck it!" I yelled kicking the door and banging on them trying to get out. Billie rushed up behind me and pulled me away from the door.
"Lemme go!" I yelled and accidently kicked his arm, he winced in pain and a rush of guilt overcome me.
"Sorry"
"It's okay, your scared"
"I'm a scaredy cat" Billie Joe laughed and i smiled.
"No i am, i'm scared of everything, and don't try and scare me cause i don't have a spare set of pants on me!" Billie rolled on the floor laughing, so i poked him.
After our poking fight we were lying on the floor, Billie sat up and stared at me, i hate it when people stare at me.
"Stop it" I moaned turning the other way, Billie bit his lip and lay next to me.
"This is so boring..I need to pee god damn it!"
"Eww" I laughed, a smile formed on my face.
"Move away from me then" I rolled over the opposite way and groaned when my head hit the wall.
"Ouuuch"
"This day just keeps on getting better and better.." I watched Billie as he repeativly pressed the emergency cal button, after 5 minutes we must of got through or the power came back on because the doors opened.
"I'm freeee!" I shouted and ran out of the elavator, Billie raised his eyes at me.
"What?"
"We're still on the wrong floor"
"I am not taking that thing again" I laughed as I walked to the emergency stairs, I finally reached the lobby where Billie Joe was sitting munching on a chocolate bar, I rolled my eyes as he looked to his watch.
"I got down here 3 minutes ago"
"Lucky you" I said walking past him and into the mini Café it had, I bought a cold drink and a packet of 'chuckles', which the name actually made me chuckle.
I sat next to Billie and opened the packet of Chuckles, eating the green one, since lime was my favourite flavour.
"Hello again" He smirked as he threw the chocolate bar wrapper in the bin.
"We should probably go up"
"In the elavator?"
"Yes"
"Fine" I rolled my eyes and got inside with Billie, no one got on and it didn't break down, I sighed when we got to the 74th level, Wade came up to me and gave me a portfolio full of tips, hints etc on the work, I smiled and cheered when he said my shift was done and I was allowed to go home.
***
The mini bus went through the McDonalds drive thru as everyone wanted one, we pulled up to the speaker, Tré rolled down the window and shouted into the speaker that he would love a happy meal and a date for the evening, I laughed and shook my head before pulling Tré away and getting closer myself, I read off the list to what everyone had written their orders on and soon we were off to the hotel where we ate out dinner.
I had been allowed in the guy's suite to eat because they didn't want me to be lonesome.
"Ya know I used to think you two were veggies" I looked to Mike and Billie and smiled.
"Why?" They both laughed.
"Rumours..that seemed to be on the 'did you know' section on fan sites..
"We must put a stop to this!" Mike said slamming his fist onto the wooden coffee table infront of him.
"Well..I wanna get smashed" Tré said outta the blue, the guys nodded and started to put on their coats.
"Uh..ok..see you tommorow" I narrowed my eyes and went into my own room, short after there was a knock on the door.
"You coming?" Tré asked, I rolled my eyes then smirked.
"Sure"
"I fell asleep huh?"
"Yeah.. I'm sorry for getting you pissed"
"My fault i drank it" I said stepping out the cab and stumbling into the building.
