In Love With The Drummer, chapter 19
I looked around and then ordered my 9th beer. I looked at the girl behind the counter.
"Sooo...How old are you?" I asked.
"I'm 19 going on 20." She said and smiled. "You?"
"I'm soon gonna be 35." I said. I looked at my watch. "Damn. I have to get back or Jessica will kill me. C-ya."
I ran out to my car. I was drunk and I know that I shouldn't drive. But I did it anyway. As I drove out of town I drove in the middle of the highway. Then out of nowhere there was a car coming from the other side. And it was a BIG car. As I tried to steer away, I drove in to the side of a other car and crashed. Then everything went black.
"Where in hell are he?" Mike asked.
"Calm down Mike. He's going trough shit right now." Billie Joe said.
"But still! How do you think Jessica feels?"
"Please don't fight!" I yelled. "If it's something, what I don't need is you fighting."
They looked at me. I looked at them angrily. The phone rang. I walked over and answered.
"Hello? Yes this is she. What? Oh my god." I said as I started to cry. "When? I'll be right there. Yes, thank you."
I hung up. I looked at Mike and Billie with tears in my eyes.
"Who was it?" Billie Joe asked.
"What's wrong?" Mike asked.
"There been an accident..." I started and could see that they probably knew what I was going to say. "Oh god. No. Not my Tre..."
I fell on my knees crying my eyes out. Billie looked at Mike who was looking at him. Billie sat down beside of me.
"Is he dead?" He asked.
"I--I d-don't kn-o-ow." I said. "We have to get to the hospital, but someone must stay here with Lilly and the boys."
"I can do it. Mike can drive you. Right?" Billie said and looked at Mike.
Mike nodded and I got up from the floor. We hurried out to the car and drove of to the hospital.
When we got there, I went over to the desk and told my name and asked for Tre. She looked at the papers and said that they where no one here called that name. I realized that he was called by his real name.
"Frank Wright." I said.
She looked trough her papers again.
"Oh yes. He is in surgery." She said.
"Oh god. Is it bad you think?"
"I don't know. But if you sit down, I'll call for a doctor."
I nodded and walked over to Mike who was sitting quietly in a corner. I sat down beside him and took his hand. He looked at me. I could see tears flooding his eyes. He looked at the ground again. He opened his mouth trying to say something. After a few seconds he did.
"If anything happened to Tre, I would die." He said. "I fucking love that guy. He is the bestest friend ever."
"He will be all right Mike. Okay?"
He looked at me again.
"I promise." I said.
I took him in my arms and he cried on my shoulder. I leaned my head against his and fell asleep.
I woke up someone shaking me.
"Jessica, Tre's out of surgery and is in a room." I opened my eyes and looked at Mike. "We can see him if you want."
I nodded and we walked into a room. The room was kind of dark but the nurse beside him turned the lights on. I looked at my beloved Tre that was lying in the hospital bed. I sighed and walked over to him. He looked so peaceful. I took his hand in mine.
"Oh Frank. I love you please don't die," I said.
I could feel a hand on my shoulder. I looked at Mike who stood beside me crying.
"Tre, you clown." He said and sighed. "What are we going to do without you?"
I knew what I was going to do. I was going to die without him...
"Sooo...How old are you?" I asked.
"I'm 19 going on 20." She said and smiled. "You?"
"I'm soon gonna be 35." I said. I looked at my watch. "Damn. I have to get back or Jessica will kill me. C-ya."
