All These Things I Hate, chapter 2

Billie Joe had fallen asleep and Mike was sitting staring at Tre. He had spaced out when the machine went off and tapped his finger to it. The beat changed and Tre moved.
"Tre? You waking up? Come on buddy wake up," Mike said.
Tre groaned in pain and his eyes opened slowly.

"Thank God you're awake," Mike sighed with relief.
"What in the hell are you on about?" Tre asked, moaning, "And why can't I move?"
"You were in a car crash Tre, they, they didn't think you were going to wake up."
Tre had a shocked look in his eye. "Really?" he asked.
Mike nodded.

Billie stirred in his seat and woke with a start.
"Hey Bill, Tre's awake," Mike said softly.
Billie Joe looked Tre who happened to have his eyes closed. Billie frowned.
"You think that's funny?" he shouted, "Well it's not, you're sick Mike, I never thought you'd ever do anything like that." Then he stormed out of the room.
"For the love of," Mike sighed and got up to go after Billie.
"Just leave him," said Tre, "I think he just needs to let off some steam."

Billie Joe went storming down the long corridor of the hospital, kicking random parts of the wall as he went.
"What the hell does he think I am?" he shouted kicking the wall.
He went storming down towards the door, when it swung open and knocked him flat out.
"Oh my God I'm so sorry," Kyle who was in his early twenties blurted out. "Holy God I've killed Billie Joe Armstrong!"
Luckily a nurse had heard all the commotion and had gone to see what was going on.
"What happened here?" she asked.
"I... I... opened the door and it hit him and now he's out cold," Kyle blurted.
"I know where his friends are so we'll get him on a stretcher and take to the room they're in, ok?"
Kyle nodded. He didn't want to go with them, his friends were Mike Dirnt and Tre Cool, and he couldn't face telling them what he'd done.
"I've got to go see my mum," he mumbled.
"Off you go then," the nurse smiled kindly, "But before you do can you stay here while I get the stretcher and then help me lift him on?"
"Uh, Ok."

When the nurse came back with the stretcher she told Kyle that they shouldn't actually be lifting him on themselves but everyone else was busy so they might as well.
Kyle took him from under Billie's arms while the nurse lifted him up by his legs with one arm and supported his back with the other.
"God he may be small but he's not light," thought Kyle.
When they got him safely on the stretcher the nurse thanked Kyle and wheeled him back to the room that Tre and Mike were in.

"Oh my God, what's he done?" Mike worriedly asked.
"He's just taken a knock to the head, he'll be fine."
"How did it happen?" Mike asked.
"Someone opened the door when he was walking towards it and it hit him on the head," the nurse replied, "Has Frank woken up yet?"
"Yeah, he has, he's just sleeping."
The nurse nodded and got Billie into a bed, once she'd done that she smiled and walked out.
"Billie you are a complete idiot," Mike sighed.
He'd been doing a lot of sighing today.
