Billie Joe's Girl!, chapter 5
Tre and I just looked at each other.
"Fuck!" Tre mumbled under his breath.
"Billie, wait!" I shouted as he walked out the door. I clambered off of Tre and ran to the catch Billie Joe. What the hell was I playing at? I still loved Billie!
"Billie!" I shouted as I grabbed his arm to stop him from leaving. I twisted him round to see tears running down his face.
"I loved you, Roxy! I know I shouldn't have made you a bet. Nine months ago I didn't love you, but over time I've grown to love you more than anything in this world! When Mike asked me if I loved you, I was trying to deny it. Which is when I realized I really do love you, so much!" he said, making me feel terrible. "I thought you loved me too, but obviously..."
"Billie Joe! I do love you, so much! Me and Tre, there is nothing going on..."
"You slept with him!" he shouted, "and now you are telling me, there's nothing going on!"
"I was upset Billie! He was there, and I couldn't help it. It felt wrong, but I was so angry and upset!" I replied, knowing what I had done was wrong. "Billie, I love you so much. I want to be with you for the rest of my life. I'm sorry, for everything!"
I began to cry. Billie Joe hugged me, he was so warm. His black dread locks pushed against my red ones.
"I'm sorry too!" he replied as he pulled away, "can we give us another go? I really want it to work!" he asked.
"I would like that!" I smiled, as I played with my dread locks. By now Tre had left, without even saying good bye, I don't think the response from Billie would have been too good even if he did.
3 ½ weeks later
Billie Joe and I forgot about everything that happened, and decided to start a fresh. Once again the four of us; me, Billie Joe, Mike and Tre were all best friends again, as if, nothing had ever happened. But how long could it stay like this for?
"Tre?" I said as he picked up the phone.
"Oh hey, Roxy!" he replied happily, "what's up?"
"I really need to talk to you!" I said, as I paced from side to side of the bathroom. "When we slept together, did you use protection?" I asked out of the blue.
There was a silence on the other end.
"What?" he replied in a confused tone.
"You heard what I said, Tre! Just tell me, did you or didn't you?" I snapped.
"No, I didn't," he answered briefly.
"Fuck!" I shouted "Tre, I'm almost 4 weeks late! I could be pregnant!"
"Shit!" Tre replied in shock.
"I'm seventeen for fucks sake! This cannot happen!" I said, as I sat on the edge of the bath and put my head in my hand.
"Listen to me Roxy! Go and buy a pregnancy test!" he said.
"Tre... I want you there with me; you know when I find out... can you come over?" I asked shyly. "Billie Joe has gone out with Mike, they won't be back for a couple of hours!"
"Of course!" he replied in a sweet voice. "I'll be straight over!"
We both hung up our phones.
1 hour later
Me and Tre stood in the bathroom.
"I guess this is it!" he said, shrugging his shoulders.
"Yep, I guess it is!" I replied.
"Roxy, ya know, if you are... pregnant, I'm going to be here or you!" he smiled. I smiled back, placing one of my hand is his, for support. Then placed the test in front of us. We studied it carefully, there was a silence.
"Tre... I'm..."
"Fuck!" Tre mumbled under his breath.
"Billie, wait!" I shouted as he walked out the door. I clambered off of Tre and ran to the catch Billie Joe. What the hell was I playing at? I still loved Billie!
