We all piled out of the bus, for freedom. Jason White did what he calls a "cartwheel," while everyone else just took in fresh air.
"What time is the show at?" I asked Billie Joe.
"7:30" He replied. Sweet we still had about 4 hours. But then there was practice, yeah that lasts a long time. So more like 2 hours. I stood there taking in the cool, fresh air when.
"RUGBY TACKLE!" Tre came charging at me out of no where.
"Ahhh." Tre was on top of me on the ground, everyone was laughing, at us. When the phone begins to ring, on the bus. Billie Joe gets hold of himself and runs to get it. We all start talking outside as Billie's inside. After about 10 minutes, he walks out looking really happy. Wow.
"Hey guys guess what?"
"What?" We all say sounding like a preschool class.
"Adrienne and the kids are coming!" He said excitedly. Cool I have only met Adrianne, I never met his boys.
"Great Bill when are they coming?" Mike asked.
"In a couple of days." He replied, looking as though he could do a cartwheel. I was glad to meet them, we all walked back inside, and started talking, for a while I was playing another round of Mario Cart with Jason. This time he won one and I won two and Donkey Kong won one.
An hour later we were walking over to where we had to practice, they set up their instruments and I just looked like I was doing something. When they were all set, we went though all the songs because we haven't performed in over a week. Which lasted an hour and a half because we skipped all the hey-ho's, and audience stuff.
We now have over an hour left of nothing, it was actually shorter because we needed 20 minutes to get dressed and stuff. The time went by fast, we all didn't really do much, as time went by we got quieter, we were starting to get nervous, for the show.
We silently got ready for the show, we were all nervous whether we were going to admit it or not. Billie Joe said that I should dress in something comfortable. I stuck with my normal jeans, my "Ramones" t-shirt Billie Joe bought me cause I didn't have one. I think he thought I was sick when I said I didn't have one. I also just wore a pair of black converse and my legendary black studded belt.
All of a sudden we heard the music that symboled that we were about to go on. Mike was all sweaty and ready to go, Billie Joe was way to quiet, and Tre was nervous you could tell but wasn't doing to much to show it.
All the lights were turned off, when we silently walked on stage. Except for one, that was shining right on me, I was the one who announced that it was their time, the other guys weren't in sight, I was all alone. I held the microphone up to my mouth and said.
"Hello fellow people, you might be wondering who the hell is I am, right. Well I have come out here to see how much you want to see Green Day." The crowd started screaming.
"Wooh, wooh, wooh, wooh, wait a minute, that was good, but first, before they come on, I or we want you to scream as loud as you lungs possibly can." I made a face holding out my arms that symboled for them to scream. They did, and it was the loudest crowd yet.
"Holy Hell, that was good." I said into the mic.
"How about I hear it one more time." They screamed.
"Ok one... more... time!" I screamed into the microphone, taking a breath between each breath between each word. Right as I finished, and they started screaming, American Idiot started up, and all the light turned on so that everyone was visible.
A few days later.
We were all waiting at the air port, we did 3 more shows in different locations, so we were traveling a lot. Billie Joe was on the edge of the seat, watching everyone who got off the plain. It was all he could talk about for the past few days, well I'm glad for him, he hasn't seen his kids for a while, and only has seen Adrienne, once since I have been on tour with them.
Then he saw them, he bolted out of his chair, ran up to his wife and gave her a kiss, the hugged both of his kids. I'm glad they are the type who hug, a lot of fathers don't hug their sons. Tre put his hand on my back and led me over to the group.
"Caroline nice to see you again." Adrienne said giving me a hug.
"Really nice to see you too Adrienne." I said returning the hug.
"Caroline this is my son Jacob." Billie Joe said. He held out his hand and I shook it, with a smile.
"And this is Caroline is Joey." Joey looked up at me and smile, oh god he was adorable.
"What time is the show at?" I asked Billie Joe.
"7:30" He replied. Sweet we still had about 4 hours. But then there was practice, yeah that lasts a long time. So more like 2 hours. I stood there taking in the cool, fresh air when.
