Say it, before it's too late!, chapter 1
Markus' P.O.V
I looked at her with tears in my eyes. Why did she have to go? She was everythig to me. She leaned against me. Crying her eyes out.
"Come on now!" somebody yelled from the car. I couldn't let her go without telling her what I felt for her! I tried to stop her. Tried to call her back, but I couldn't speak. I saw her body disappering into the car.
"I love you, May!" I whispered to myself and watched the black car taking my black-haired beauty away.
"Markus? Are you awake?" my mum yelled from downstairs. I groaned. It was 9 pm on a Saturday. I acted like I didn't hear her and turned my Mp3 player on. "Whatsername". The song I always put on after dreaming of her. My beauty. My everything. It was three years since she moved away from me. I hadn't had life since. I didn't gave a shit about school so my grades were not much to brag about. I lost all of my friends. They thaught I got to pathetic. To desperate to get her back. My parents also thaught so.
When I went downstairs an hour later, my mum were sitting on the couch with my dad. Watching David Letterman and laughing of his pathetic jokes. I made myself some toast and ate it in silence. I caught myself thinking of here. Her short, black hair and her amazing green eyes. I loved her so much! She probably didn't remember me.
May's P.O.V
I couldn't wait! Finally I was moving back home! Back where Markus were. He probably didn't remember me, but I just couldn't wait to see him. It had been three years, two months and five days since we had moved apart. Dad got a better job in a different city, and I had to move with him.
The drive seemed to take forever. I turned my Mp3 player on. Billie Joe's voice came into my head and sang so beautifull. I loved Green Day. They reminded me of Markus. Three years ago, Markus had looked like Billie Joe. Markus was my punk boy. He would always protect me from ignorant, mean people calling me names.
"Here it is! Our old house!" said dad and stopped the car. I looked at the red house that had been in my mind for three years. Now finally I could go back to my old room, with all the writings on the wall. I looked at the house next to us. I wondered if he still lived there. In one of the windows a boy stood. He looked sad at me.
I unpacked my bags in my old room. All the writings were still there. All the fun things me and Markus had written. A single tear fell from my eye as a tribute to the old days.
Markus' P.O.V
A car pulled up in May's driveway. Was somebody going to move in? I looked out of the windows to find a young girl unpacking things from the car. She was wearing a Green Day t-shirt and a pair of baggy jeans with alot of holes in it. Her short, black hair covered her eyes. I stared at her. She was a beautifull girl. She must have noticed me 'cause she was looking directly at me, with green eyes.
I couldn't belive it. Was May moving back in her old house? I rushed over there in my similar Green Day t-shirt and black jeans. I fixed my hair so it would look like Billie Joe's hairstyle and with a last check of how I looked I nocked at the door. The girl opened looking at me with a look of curiosity.
"Welcome back!" I said and smiled at her.
"Oh, my God! Markus?" She threw herself at me and gave me a big hug. She laughed and asked if I still lived next door. I nodded.
"Can you come out for a walk?" I asked.
"You know to catch up." She smiled and nodded.
The wind blew through her hair. I just wanted to kiss her, but I didn't dare. What would she say?
" Oh, it's so good to be back!" she said and smiled.
We went through the park.
"Do you remember?" I said and pointed at our tree.
"Off course I do!" she said as she ran against it and climbed up into it.
I followed her. This was the perfect time to tell her. I opened my mouth.
"May?" I asked.
She looked at me and smiled. I felt that I was blushing.
"You know Green Day are coming?"
Damned! I couldn't tell her.
"They are?" she said and started smiling even more.
"I have to be there!" she said. She had always been quite obsessed with them. I loved there music, but she was obsessed. Her room was filled with sayings like: "Billie Joe is my God!" And posters where all over her walls.
"Yeah, I got two tickets!" I lied. "Want to go with me?" She threw herself at me again. I almost fell out of the tree.
She gave me a big hug as I followed her to her door.
"I can't wait!" She said and winked at me. I was also exited, there was only one problem. How could I trick my mum into not going?
I came inside the door.
"Markus? Where have you been?" mum said and I blurted out with the whole story. Mum laughed and said that she really didn't want to go. So she gave me her ticket. Things were going easy. I could tell her at the concert. That would be perfect!
May's P.O.V
The day started out great. I called Markus to see when the concert started. It started 5 pm so I started getting ready. I made my hair all messy and used the eyeliner just like Billie did. Then I used some mascara just to make my eyes a little more shocking. I loved my clothes. A pants full of holes with a belt like Billie Joe had. And I wore a red top under a black jacket. I looked awesome.
In the car we didn't say much. I was to exited to speak. This was going to be my first Green Day concert ever. I was old enough(I was 18 now, I had just not moved away from dad yet), but I had never had the money to go. I gave Markus a big smile and another "thanks for bringing me". He smiled, but it looked like something was wrong. I didn't ask. I knew Markus to well. He wouldn't tell me.
The area was crowded with people. We were lucky to get in the front. Markus was smiling now. We was so lucky to get up all the way to the stage, in the very front. Green Day came out on stage and everybody, including me, started screaming as crazy. They started out with American Idiot.
Then in Hitching a ride, Billie threw his lovely red tie, out into the audience, and I got it. I almost fainted, but Markus took his hand on my shoulder, holding me. "But Billie, that is your last red tie?" Tre said and laughed. "Oh yeah", Billie laughed to. "I can buy a new one!" The song continued.
Everybody had left. Me and Markus were the only one there, when Billie, Mike and Tre stepped out on stage. "
Are you guys still here?" Billie laughed. I stood right in front of me. I looked into those gorgeous eyes and lost my voice completely.
"She wanted to return your tie!" Markus said and pushed me in the shoulder.
"H..he...here!" I said and reached out my hand to give him his tie back. He looked at my hand and laughed. "No, just keep it! I can just buy a new one!" he said.
"What's your name?" Mike asked.
"I'm Markus" said Markus and reached his hand out. Mike, Tre and Billie shook it. How could Markus be so calm.
This was my Gods. My heroes through five years. I couldn't just shake hands with them and act like I was calm.
"I'm May!" I said and reached my hand out. Tre and Mike shook it. I was fine. This wasn't so bad. Then Billie looked at me, smiled and said, "May is a beautifull name!"
And then everything went black.
Markus' P.O.V
"Oh, my fucking god!" Billie yelled.
"What did I do?" I looked down at May. She had fainted and was now lying on the ground.
"Can I take her backstage?" I asked Billie.
He nodded silently. I guess he was in some kind of shock. I carried May backstage with the guys of Green Day. How was it possible to faint? I knew they were stars and all, but they were still just humans.
"Do you want anything to drink..uhm..Markus?" Mike asked when I had put May on the couch they had.
"Maybe a beer?" He looked at me.
"No thanks I'm driving. I think Billie need it more than me." I pointed at Billie who just sat staring at May from one of the chairs.
"I didn't do anything!" he said and looked totally freaked out.
"No, you didn't!" I said and gave him the bottle of beer.
"She is just so obsessed with you guys. That she got really nervous and fainted. She'll be okay!"
Billie still looked kind of frightened. I sat down in one of the other chairs.
When May woke up everybody was staring at her(Me, Billie, Mike and Tre). She screamed.
"Calm down!" I said. "You don't want to pass out again do you?"
She giggled. It was so cute. I had to say it now. What felt about her.
"You're really lucky your boyfriend was here. We would have ran away if he wasn't here." Billie laughed.
"Oh, he isn't my boyfriend. We're just friends!" She said. It was like a punch in the stomach. I couldn't breath. How could she say something like that, when I was about to say that I loved her.
"Dude, you okay?" Tre said and looked at me.
"It looks like you can't breath." I just laughed.
"I think you should get some water!" Billie said.
"You look very pale and sweaty!" I did as he said with a close eye on Billie Joe, as he crawled closer and closer to May.
He took his hand and whispered something in her ear. She giggled and smiled. I went back to them and saw that Billie was still holding her hand and was smiling at her still. I stood up.
"I got to go. It was nice meeting you guys!" I said.
I looked at May.
"Are you coming?" She looked a bit troubled.
"I think I'll stay here for a while. I'm feel a little bit dizzy." She said. I ran outside. Drove my car as fast as I could. How could she like that guy. Just because he was famous? I lost control of the car and ran it in to a tree.
I never saw May again...
I looked at her with tears in my eyes. Why did she have to go? She was everythig to me. She leaned against me. Crying her eyes out.
"Come on now!" somebody yelled from the car. I couldn't let her go without telling her what I felt for her! I tried to stop her. Tried to call her back, but I couldn't speak. I saw her body disappering into the car.
