Billie Joe, How Could You?!?, chapter 5
*Billie's POV*
I watched as Cassie was being dragged away. I waved goodbye before she was inside the house. I continued walking to my house. My older brother greeted me at the door.
"Hey B. J" he said with a smile.
"Hey Jack Ass, I mean Jake," I said running upstairs. I bumped into my sister, Allie. She gave me a smile and cocked her head.
"Guess what I found in your room, B. J."
"What?'
"This." she said holding up the lyrics to Paper Laterns.
"Give it back!" I yelled lunging for it. She giggled and playfully jerked it away. I lunged at her again and tackled her. I didn't care because I got the lyrics back.
"God, B. J. you don't have to be so violent." Allie said as I got off of her.
"Fuck you," I simply said and walked into my room. I placed the lyrics back on my desk and sat myself down on my bed and sighed. My thoughts contained of Cassie.
Does she really like me?
Will she be my girlfriend?
Those thoughts were racing through my head until I heard the phone ring.
I answered it with a "Yello,"
"Hey dude, its Mike,"
"Hey, man, what's up?" I asked. I could hear Tre talking continuously talking in the background.
"Nothing really. I was just wondering something."
"What?"
"Did you kiss her yet?"
"What?! Hell no!" I yelled blushing.
"Geese! you don't have to yell."
"Sorry," I whispered.
"It's okay. Can Tre and I come over?"
"Yep. Bye," I said as I hung up the phone. I hoped off my bed and ran into the bathroom to take a shower. Since Mike and Tre lived 20 minutes away I had enough time to take one. As soon as I got out of the shower I heard some one singing. I wrapped towel around my waist and walked into my room to figure out who it was.
"Get some clothes on!" Tre yelled once I walked into my room.
"Get out of my room!" I yelled. Mike threw a pair of boxers at me. I caught them and walked back into the bathroom. I slipped them on and walked back out into the room. Tre wolf whistled. I walked around like a model. Tre and Mike hollered and clapped.
"I love you! You're so sexy!" Tre yelled.
"Thank you, I love you too, you sexy son of a bitch," I said in a gay voice. I sat on Tre's lap and kissed his cheek. Mike laughed as I got off of Tre's lap. I went and searched through my drawer. I pulled out a black shirt and black pants. I put them on and went looking around for my ragged black converse.
*Tre's POV*
I watched Billie search for his shoes and then I looked at his desk and noticed a peice of paper.
"Hey what's this?" I asked as I got off of his bed. I picked up the peice of paper and read it. Mike got up and followed me. He read it also.
"Hey Bill, what's this all about?" Mike asked taking it from me and showing it to him. Billie quickly took it away from him and put it in his top drawer.
"What was that all about?" I asked.
"Nothing. What ever you read just now, forget it. Okay? It's just nothing," Billie said.
"It's about Cassie. Isn't it?" Mike asked. Billie sighed and sat on the bed. He nodded.
"Do you think she'll like it? I'm playing it tonight at our gig," he asked.
"I don't know. Play it for us," I said. He sighed and grabbed his guitar and played the song. Mike and I clapped when he was done.
"So do you think she'll like it?" Billie asked us. Mike and I nodded.
*Mike's POV*
"We better go over to Cassie's house and pick her up," I said. Billie nodded as he picked up his guitar. He looked really nervous. We began to walk down the stairs. Not far down the stairs, Tre began to sing 'Dominated Love Slave'. This calmed Billie down a bit. We started out for Cassie's house which was just next door. Once we stepped in front of her house Billie's face went pale.
"Dude, what's wrong with you?" I asked.
"Nothing," he answered. Tre was the first to walk up to the house. I followed, with Billie right behind me. Tre and I pushed Billie to the door. He had to muster up all the courage to knock on the door. Ronny was the one to answer. He took one look at Billie and slammed the door shut. Billie stood there stunned, before knocking again. This time Cassie opened the door. She was wearing a black tank shirt that said 'You break it, You buy it,' in pink. Also on the shirt there was a pink heart broken in half. She was wearing baggy jeans and black skater shoes also. Billie looked her up and down and smiled. I could tell he was nervous.
"You..you..look wonderful," Billie stuttered.
"Thanks," Cassie said with a sweet smile. She stepped outside and was greeted by a wolf whistling Tre. She blushed. Billie glared at Tre playfully. I sighed and began to walk to my house. My mom was going to take us to our gig.
*Author's POV*
They walked for a while until they reached Mike's house. Tre's drum set was already in the back of Mike's mom's SUV. Mike had to run inside to get his bass. Billie followed. He had forgoten to gel his hair and apply eyeliner. (luckily he had some in his pocket because Mike doesn't own any) Tre also followed. His green Mohawk was falling flat. Cassie followed for no apparent reason. She followed the guys into Mike's room. She watched as Billie applied eye liner. It was Tre's turn. He put some on and afterwards he made a kissing noise.
"I'm so beautiful! Fuck!" he shouted. Cassie giggled and looked at Billie. She noticed that he was trying to gel his hair with out a mirror, since Tre was in the way.
"Here let me help. How do you want your hair. Spiked or just whacked out looking?" Cassie asked as she got gel on her hands.
"Uh....erm...spiked," Billie answered. Cassie started to run her fingers through his hair. She spiked it up.
"Hey guys how does it look?" she asked looking at Mike and Tre. Billie got up. He walked over and looked into the mirror. He smiled at how his hair looked.
"I like it," he said. Since Cassie had gel on her hands still, she went over to Tre and spiked up his Mohawk more. Tre looked in the mirror and smiled.
"Kids come on!!" Mike's mom shouted from downstairs. Mike grabbed his bass and a pick. He ran downstairs. The rest followed. Mike put his guitar in the trunk, along with Billie's. He got into the front seat next to his mom. Tre was the first to get into the back seat. Billie was being polite and opened the door for Cassie. She smiled and got in. Billie got in and shut the door. Mrs. Pritchard drove off.
"So what songs are we playing tonight?" Tre asked. Billie shrugged. He pretended to yawn and put his arm around Cassie. She snuggled up with Billie. Tre smiled and shook his head. Mrs. Pritchard looked at the 3 in the back through the mirror.
"What's going on back there?" she asked. Billie quikly took his arm from around Cassie. She scooted into the middle of the seat. Mike and Tre started cracking up.
I watched as Cassie was being dragged away. I waved goodbye before she was inside the house. I continued walking to my house. My older brother greeted me at the door.
