"Oh," said Tre, suddenly worried.
"Tell me." said Zooey, "please, I want to know."
Mike nudged him hard under the table, Billie Joe continues to stare at Jovie, who is applying, yet another shade of eyeliner, he is facinated!
"Hurry up Tre," says Mike, smiling, "I have something to tell Em, and I don't think it can wait!"
Tre scowls at Mike, Emily looks at Mike curiously, "What do you have to tell me?"
Tre put his head down, "Em," explains Mike, "It can wait believe me!"
"No, it can't! I want to know right now!Damn It! Tell me now!"
Billie Joe looked briefly at Mike and then at Tre, before continueing his longing glance at Jovie, now eating her food.
"Emily, let Tre talk, he has been dying to tell Zooey this, and Mike just decided yesterday to tell you what he wants to tell you," said Billie Joe, still staring at Jovie, and ignoring the look of contempt now spreading across Emily's face as he talked. "Please, just let him tell her. Please?"
Tre was touched. Billie Joe was standing up for him, and now he could finally tell Zooey, what he had been longing to tell her since the moment he first laid eyes on her.
"Zooey, I-"
"Billie?" asked Emily.
"Yeah?" said Billie Joe, not even looking up from his gaze at Jovie.
"I'm over here! Look at me, when I talk to you, get it? got it? Good!"
Billie Joe looked at her, "What's up Em?"
Emily laughed, "Don't call me Em. If you want Jovie so much as to look at her while she eats, the least you could do is tell her so!"
He looked away from Jovie, quickly, "Emily, you know that we are just friends, I don't want her."
She laughed again, "Well, let's see then, if you don't want her, then why is her face plastered all over your wall?"
"Em!" said Zooey, outraged, "Shut the fuck up! Billie are you okay? Jovs, just ignore her!"
"I intend to." said Jovie, not looking up from her plate. Billie was relieved. Emily was not finished yet.
"You tell her how you lost your baby teeth?" smiled Emily.
Mike spit out his food, Billie was traumatized. Zooey looked at her sister, "Don't you dare tell her that story, or I'll never forgive you! You hear me! Don't you dare! You have emberrased him enough, look at him!"
Zooey pointed at Billie, he looked down, Tre just gave up, Emily snickered, Mike scowled, Jovie, suddenly looked up from her food interested.
"Billie Joe, you never told me how you lost your baby teeth?"
He began to shun it, when Emily interjected, "Well, Jovs, your boy here, boy is he something. One day, me and Zo, we were about what Zoegirl? Eight or Nine?"
"Emily." said Zooey glaring at her sister.
"Well, we got over to his house around noon, what happened? Mike you were there, fill in the blanks for me."
"Off the subject Em," said Mike, "off the subject."
She stopped, "I'll tell you another time."
Jovie looked at all of them, "What happened? Billie, tell me, i promise I won't laugh."
"Tre, please tell me." said Zooey, changing the subject entirely.
Tre looked away, "Not now, maybe later, or whenever you are more interested in me."
Zooey could not believe what he had said to her, "Please tell me, I am interested in you. Please."
"Tell me!"
"Emily knock it off! I'll tell you in a minute! Give me a break!"
"Now!"
"Minute!"
"Now!"
"Emily, I swear to God-"
"Now!"
Zooey screamed, She could not take it anymore! She had had enough, with Tre being upset at her, because of other people, her sister being a spoiled brat and getting everything she had wanted, her best friend Jovs, being as beautiful as she was, not knowing it, and not knowing that the same man she is in love with is very much in love with her, and her being a rock star's niece! No more, he was going to tell her.
"Tre, tell me baby, please? I promise you, that whatever happens, I will always care what you have to say, Please tell me. I really do want to know. Please baby, please?"
Tre decided to tell her. it was now or never, she had to know, even if it damaged his and her friendship, she had to know.
Zooey, I love you, very much, and I always will."
The table got silent, so silent that you could hear a gnat sneeze from a hundred miles.
Until, "Tell me!"
Mike sighed, she had to know too, "I love you Emily, and I can't live without you."
Jovie dropped her fork. Billie Joe untucked his shirt.
"Tell me." said Zooey, "please, I want to know."
Mike nudged him hard under the table, Billie Joe continues to stare at Jovie, who is applying, yet another shade of eyeliner, he is facinated!
