As if syncronised all our mouths dropped to the floor. We stood their infront of the best hotel room ever imaginable. There was lounges with throw pillows and rose petals sprinkled over them to a chocolate foutain in the kitchen. The bedrooms were colour co-wardinated and each one was a diferent colour. This hotel room was nore like a palace. In all three bedrooms their was a four poster bed. I chose to sleep in the black room, it was all satin sheets and silk. Louise and Krissy shared the red room. Hannah had the other yellow room because the mini bar fridge was stacked with mint slices and Tim Tams. She just couldn't resist.
We all agreed to meet in the bath room for a bubble bath in the spar in half an hour giving us time to unwind etc. The half an hour flew past and we all met it the huge bathroom. We all had our binkies on. We slipped into the bubble fild spar. Talk about five star treatment. Next to the spar was a mini bar fridge. Leaning over the edge of the spar, I grabbed 4 chocolate milkshakes out of the fridge and handed one to each of the girls.
"Here's to our little tour and with any luck we'll get some gigs. Also having the chance to see Green Day perform! To Green Day!" Krissy said raising a toaste and lifting her glass. We all did the same.
"To Green Day!" we echoed. Clunked our glasses together then took big mouth fulls. We sat in the spar with big milkshake mostarshes laughing and joking around.
"So how do we now what to wear to this "Bands'r'Us" day thing?" Hannah asked.
"Well I had a read of the piece of paper and it said it was at a beach so, I'm guessing not too much black clothing and maybe swimmers on underneath for after," I offered.
"How about we go to the beach tomorrow and check out the beach and stuff?" Louise said.
"Yeah, that would be great, just so we know where it is and everything," I agreed. "It's on the day after tomorrow you know"
"Oh shit! Do you think they have a drumkit I could use cause I didn't exactly pack myne?" Krissy asked.
"Umm yeah it said on the paper that they can suply a drumkit, keyboard and some amps, so it'll be ok. Lucky me and Louise brought our guitars."
The night went on and we were having a blast. Eventually we all got out and realised we looked like shrivled up prunes. The night ended in a band practice, Krissy played her bongos what she takes everywhere she goes, Hannah just sang along and Louise and I on our guitars but they weren't amped as we didn't bring them. We had planned to get our parents to either send them over or we would just buy new ones. Which was probably the best idea.
The next morning we descided to go shopping and go to the beach in the afternoon. After the day of shopping we dropped our new things back at the hotel and then made our way to the beach.
Four the first hour we lazed around sun baking then we went for a swim. The evening grew cooler so we decided to change into warmer clothes which we had brought with us. We stayed to watch the sun set.
"Hey Ellie," Louise shouted "Lets make signs!"
"Huh?" I scratched my head.
"Signs, like if someone flew over the top they could read them!" She explained.
"Oh I see," I said figuring out what she ment and grabbed a stick to draw in the sand with. The first thing I wrote was: 'I LOVE GREEN DAY!' Then I wrote: 'TRE COOL IS MY PUNK ROCK GOD'. Louise, Hannah and Krissy had wrote somethings as well like 'PURE ESSENCE WAS HERE!' and 'WE WORSHIP GREEN DAY' and stuff like that.
We all sunddenly looked into the sky when there was a sound of a plane approaching. I thought for a moment then started to jump around waving my arms up at the plane. The others just looked at me like I was off my nut and laughed then they joined in to try and get the planes attention. Then we all stood together waving and smiling at the plane. As I was waving I just wonderd where Green Day was and Tre. Wondering what he was doing while the four of us stood on a beach showing our dedication to his band...hmm I wonder...
BACK TO THIRD PERSON P.O.V
Bits of cloud drifted passed the little window of the small airo-plane, as a dull face staired blanky into the distance. The dazed face belonged to Tre Cool. He and Billie Joe was returning from a press comfrence on the other side of America. Tre had recently broken up with his girlfriend and after their separation she had said some lies about Tre and their relationship to the media. So Tre thought he might aswell face the music and set the facts straight at the comfrence that had been arranged. He had taken Billie Joe with him for support and company. Mike would have also gone but with him but he couldn't due to his mother was ill and she needed his support more than the boys did. Hence the reason they couldn't make it to the Live 8 concert. Billie Joe was sitting next to Tre on their private plane. He was talking to Mike on his mobile even though your not supposed to use phones on planes but they were superstars so who gives a shit.
"Yeah man...sounds good...uhuh...yeah well tell your mum to get better soon and we'll call around soon ok....what's that?...oh cool, you will have to give us a demo" Billie said into the phone, while nudging Tre. Tre broke out of his daze and looked at Billie with a "What the fuck was that for" face. Billie Joe coverd the phone with his hand and said.
"Mike says hi and that he's made up a coulpe of new riffs for us to try. Ones called something like ahhh King for a day" Billie laughed not making a sound and Tre gave a small smile.
"Anyways Mike we'll see ya soon alright dude...ok then...see ya..bye," Billie hung up the phone.
"Ah cheer up dude, I'm sure there is gonna be some hot chics at this thing tomorrow," Billie said trying to brighten Tre's mood.
"Mmm yeah I suppose, then she can dump me and make up some more lies ans we'll be back to where we started," Tre said with a sarcastic tone. Billie Joe smiled and rolled his eyes.
"That's the way the world works my friend, it's either their way or the shithouse highway" He then waved his arm to get his personal waiter to attend to his needs. Tre then returned to his gazing out the window. The clouds parted a bit and Tre got bored of staring. He turned to say something to Billie Joe but then he shut his mouth again and took a second look out the window. He staired down in astonishment as Billie noticed Tre's face.
"What's up dude?" Tre's eye's opened wider as his smirk returned to his face and said.
"Take a jeez at this!"
