The Love and Pain of Sophie Manor, chapter 1
*Sophies Pov*
RIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNG! Damn I hate alarm clocks. I hit the off button and pull the covers up higher hoping for some more sleep. "Sophie get your ass out of bed!" I heard my 20 year old sister Lucy shout from downstairs. We lived alone in a flat since our parents died 2 years ago and since Lucy was 18 at the time she got custody of me. I slowly got out of bed and put on my school uniform and some eyeliner before going downstairs for food. Lucy made pancakes for me. I ate them then grabbed my bag and headed for the door. "Have a nice day" Lucy called to me. I turned to her forced a smile and nodded but the moment the door closed the smile left my face. If only she knew... If only she knew that ever since our parents died and we moved to California that my new school has been living hell.
I guess I should introduce myself. My names Sophie Manor I'm 15 years old and I'm a punk although having to wear a school uniform doesn't make it look like I am. You've probably already realized that I live with my sister and my parents died so I'll tell you about school. Before me and my sister moved I had friends I wasn't popular but I had friends. Now we've move thought all that's changed everyone hates me. I get called all sorts when I haven't even done anything I've learnt to live with it but it still gets me upset.
I walked through the gates getting thrown the usual insults "Slut" "Bitch" "Slapper" "Hoe" but I just walked on and ignored them. That worked until I walked straight into the person I most feared.
Billie Joe Armstrong
He was a popular guy who had all the girls after him. He had blue hair and shocking green eyes. He was in a band called Green Day with his two friends Mike and Tre, they had never really bullied me they threw a few insults now and then but I could tell they didn't like what Billie Joe did. Sometimes they would tell him to back off if he was about to hit me so I guess that's something. Right now though he looked at me with very angry eyes and shoved me hard against the lockers "Watch where your going bitch!" He said glaring at me. And for some strange reason I noticed his eyes soften a bit even though he was trying to look angry. That confused me for a minute but I brushed it off thinking it was my imagination. I got up off the floor and began to walk away but he grabbed my arm and pulled me back "Where'd you think your going" He said and pushed me against the lockers again. Mike came up and pulled Billie Joe away. "Why are you doing this Billie Joe what has she ever done to you?" Billie didn't answer he just glared at Mike then Tre came "Not again BJ when are you going to leave her alone" he said. Billie replied by saying "When she stops being a slut" before Mike or Tre could reply though I seemed to find my voice, "You have no right to call me a slut you don't even know me the only time we've talked has been when you've insulted me!" All three of them were staring at me shocked at what was happening but I couldn't stop now I was fuming. "And you know what Billie Joe I fucking hate you and I know that's what you wanna hear so there you heard it" I shouted before turning on my heel to head to my next lesson I caught a glimpse of Billie's face and I could've sworn he looked hurt but I honestly didn't care right now I just stormed to my next lesson... Math.
I took my seat at the back and got out my notebook and started a song. A few minutes later I looked up to see Mike and Tre enter with Billie trailing behind talking to some blonde prep. He looked at me and caught my eye but I just looked back down angrily. The three of them minus the prep took there seats at the front. The teacher came in took the register and started the lesson I wasn't paying attention to her until she shouted "BILLIE JOE STOP TALKING IN MY LESSON GO SIT AT THE BACK SWAP PLACES WITH SOPHIE." I picked up my stuff and he did the same glaring at me as he passed I just glared right back. I took my seat in-between Tre and Mike and put my stuff down. The teacher set our work so I started to do it even though I couldn't be bothered. Then Tre spoke to me "So... You like punk" I nodded "Really? You don't seem punk like" Mike said. I laughed slightly "Yeah well this school uniform doesn't help" I replied. He smiled then we got into a conversation about pretty much anything. I was so caught up in it that I didn't notice Billie throw a note at Tre's head.
*Tres Pov*
WHAT THE FUCK? Oh Billie's throwing notes I picked it up and read it:
Why the hell are you two talking to that bitch!?
BJ
I rolled my eyes I didn't know why everyone hated her she hadn't done anything I turned the note over and scribbled a reply on the back
She's actually kinda cool she's a punk you know I'm gonna invite her to band practice tonight to check out Green Day
Tre
I threw it to him he read it and looked at me with an unreadable expression. I took this as an opportunity to ask her since he didn't exactly say no. "Sophie you wanna come to Green Day's band practice tonight?" She looked kind of taken aback but then she answered "Sure but I don't think Billie would like that," Mike nodded. "Well, I threw him a note and told him and he never said no so..." I said trailing off. She shrugged "Sure then" then she went back to talking to Mike I quickly got some paper and written a note for BJ
She said she's gonna come tonight
Tre
When I threw it at him he read it then scribbled something when he threw it to me it said
Whatever I don't care
BJ
I shrugged then got on with my work.
*Sophies Pov*
I was walking home to get ready to go to Tre's where they were having practice. He said he'd pick me up at 6 since he recognized my address but I had no idea where his was. So I got in got changed and ate something it was now five thirty so I sat down and waited I was nervous cause I knew Billie didn't like me and I was scared at what he'd be like outside of school. At 6 I heard a knock an answered it to find Tre and Billie Joe "Hi Soph I knocked for Billie first so that's why he's here" Tre said. I shrugged and grabbed a jacket "Okay whatever" I replied and we left the house. "Nice shirt" Tre commented. I was wearing a black top that said 'Rock chick' and jeans. I smiled "Thanks." About five minutes later I could see Billie looking at me out of the corner of my eye. I ignored him at first then it started to piss me off "No offense an all Billie but can you stop staring at me its kinda freaky" I said. Tre started laughing and Billie looked at the floor blushing slightly for a minute before staring angrily at us both. We were silent till we got to Tre's house where Mike was waiting. We said hi then went to the basement so they could practice.
