Lost Love, chapter 1
"I sit around and watch the tube, but nothing's on..." I sang. Then my cell phone rang.
"Damn!" I yelled and turned down my radio in the car. I was on my way to Tre's house.
"Hello?" I said, sounding irritated.
"Hey, Dria, this is Tre. Are you okay? You sound mad."
"Oh, no, I'm fine." I said, trying to sound a little happier.
"Okay. Well, when are you coming over?"
"Well, I'm on my way now."
"Okie dokie! See ya in a few!" Tre said, and immediately hung up.
' Boy, he must be pretty happy that I'm coming over.' I thought to myself.
Well, I should start off the story by introducing myself. My name is Alexandria, but everyone calls me Dria. I've been friends with Tre and the guys since high school. I even lived with them for a while. But I DID NOT live with them so they could have sex with me. I don't believe in that. I'm Straight Edge (No sex until marrige, no drugs, no alcohol). I will admit that those rules had been bent quite a bit when I was living with the Green Day guys, but that was the past. I'm not as immature now.
At Billie, Mike, and Tre's House
I knocked on the door, but nobody answered. So I just walked in. The living room and the kitchen were empty, so I assumed the guys were upstairs. I went upstairs and into Tre's room because I heared the TV on. He was laying on his bed, watching some infomercial. That totally showed how bored he was.
"Hey!" Tre said, and turned the TV off.
"Hi. Why is it so quiet around here. Where are Billie and Mike?" I asked sitting on Tre's bed.
"Oh, they left to go to the store. So, whatcha want to do?"
"I dunno. What do you want to do?" I said, getting up.
"Do you want to go to the mall?" he said, getting up as well.
"Uh, sure." We both just stared at each other for the longest time. I finally looked away.
"Well let's go then." I said, and walked out of the house and into the car.
1990, At A Party
I was at some lame party. I was forced to go by my friends, and the only reason they wanted to go was because of the alcohol. So, I was sitting there, on the couch alone. Everyone else there was dancing. It seemed like I was the only one there sober. Well, it was getting kinda boring, so I decided to go home. Knowing I would have to walk because I didn't have one, I started down the dark street.
"Hey, wait up!" somebody yelled.
I turned around to find three guys coming towards me. I started to panick, thinking they may be some rapists or something. Then I realized that I went to school with them.
"Hi! I'm Mike, this is Billie Joe, and this is Tre." Mike says, pointing to Tre who was staring at me.
"Hi" I said, realived that it was only them and not some murderer.
"What do you want?" I asked.
"Well, we saw you sitting alone at the party and knew you were having a bad time, so we were wondering if you wanted to hang with us." Tre said. He had such pretty eyes, and a nice looking face. I instantly was attracted to him.
"Sure, why not?" I say, and started walking with them
At Billie's House
"Well, here we are." Billie Joe says, and plops down on the couch. Tre and Mike follow. I just stood there, looking like an idiot, by the door.
"You can sit down, you know." Billie Joe says, pointing to a spot next to Tre.
There was a long silence. Then Billie Joe finally says, "So, what's you name?"
"I'm Alexandria, but everyone calls me Dria." I say, looking at Tre.
"Well, nice to meet you, Dria." he said
"Yeah, nice to meet you." Tre and Mike said.
"So, whatcha want to do?" Billie Joe asked.
"Well, whatever you want to do."
"You're not much help." Billie Joe said, and nodded to Mike, who took a small bag out of his pocket. It was pot.
"Whoa guys, if you are gonna do that stuff, I'm leavin." I said, immediatly getting up and start for the door.
"Wait, where are you going?"Billie Joe asked, getting up as well, walking towards me.
"I'm not into that dope shit. I'm Straight Edge. And anyways, I don't wanna get into any trouble." I say opening the front door.
"Okay, okay, we won't do any dope while you are here." Billie Joe said miserably, and Mike put the bag of dope into his pocket.
"Okay." I closed the door and sat back on the couch.
"Well, I better go now that we definantly don't have anything to do." Mike said, and left.
Billie, Tre and I just sat there, looking at each other.
"Well, I'm gonna go to bed. There's nothing else around here to do. Are you staying tonight Tre?" Billie Joe said.
"Yeah. Is that okay?" Tre asked.
"Of course, bud."
A qhile later Tre and I started talking, and instantly started getting to know each other. Maybe a little too much...
The next day
I was asleep on the couch when Tre woke me.
"Hey." he whispered, moving my hair from my eyes.
"Hi."
"I can't believe last night. I mean it was great and all, but I'm Straight Edge.I'm so against pre-marrital sex." I explained.
"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have even made a move on you." Tre said, putting his head down.
"But you know, I won't regret it." I said, kissing him on the cheek.
"Really?"
"Yeah." I replied, getting up and putting my clothes back on.
"Will your parents get mad that you have been gone all night?"
"My mom and dad are in Florida. They will never know."
I head for the door and turn around.
"I know I've only known you for a while, but I think I love you." I admit to Tre, who was getting his clothes on.
"Really? I feel the same way about you, too."
I took a pen and a piece of paper from the table in the living room and wrote down my number. I handed it to him and gave him a kiss."
"Bye babe." he said, hugging me.
"Bye." I replied, and left.
Two Weeks Later, During the Night
I didn't talk to Tre for a while until I got a call late one night.
"Hello?" I said, just waking up from the phone.
"This is Tre."
"Hi Tre!" I said, intantly awake.
"How are you doing?" he asked.
"I'm okay. May I ask why you are calling so late?" I asked confused. I mean, he wouldn't even look at me for the longest time.
"I just wanted to ask you something."
"Yeah?"
"Will you be my girlfriend?"
"Um, yeah. Yes I would love to! I thought you would never ask. I mean, you stopped talking to me after we, you know,did it. Why?" I asked, interested.
"I was just confused. I lost my virginity to you, and I felt like you and I were just using each other." Tre explained.
"But Tre, I love you. I've loved you since the beginning."
"Sincerly?" Tre asked.
"Sincerly."
"Well, I gotta go, Tre. I have a big test tomarrow."
"Okie dokie. I love you."
"Love you, too. Bye bye." I said and hung up the phone. Soon after I fell asleep.
A Year Later
I was sitting with Tre on his couch, making out with him, when Billie Joe walked in.
"Oh, hey guys. I see you are having fun." Billie snickered.
"Shut up, Billie!" Tre said, throwing a pillow from the couch at Billie.
A while later Tre and Billie Joe were having a pillow fight.
"Hey hey, guys, calm down." I yelled.
"I'm sorry, Dria." Billie Joe said , hugging me.
"It's fine." I said, hugging him back.
"Well, I better go. See ya."
"Bye!" Tre and I both said
There was a long moment of quiet. Then Tre broke the silence.
"Dria, I need to ask you something." Tre said, taking my hand.
"What's going on?" I asked, worried.
"Oh nothing, I'm fine. I just wanted to know if...."
"Go on." I said, getting a little anxious.
"Well, I should have told you this sooner, but Mike, Billie Joe and I are going on tour."
"Oh my God! Really?? I'm so proud of you guys! I knew you would do it" I said and kissed him on the cheek.
"The thing is, we'll be gone for a year. That means that we won't see much of each other. Our relationship will get pretty screwed up no seeing each other so much. I think you know what that means." Tre said, frowning.
I started was about to cry, knowing what he was gonna say. He was gonna dump me.
"You're gonna go on tour with us." Tre said with a big smile.
"Really?!?! Oh, I love you Tre!" I yelled, pulling Tre close so I could kiss him.
"Well, we'll have to leave for New York tomarrow." Tre exclaimed.
I couldn't believe it. My boyfriend and the guys were going on tour. I knew they would eventually. They were so talented, and they really deserved it.
The Next Day
Tre and I spent the whole night making out and holding each other.
"Hey babe, it's time to wake up!" Tre whispered, kissing me on the cheek. He was already dressed.
"Hi. Did you have a good nights sleep?" I asked, getting up and heading towards the bathroom.
"Yes. And you?"
"Yeah. I'm gonna take a shower and then I'll have to pack."
"Alright, Dria. I'll be packing. I love you."
"I love you too, Tre." I replied, getting into the shower.
I was packing my things when Mike came into the bedroom, closing the door behind him.
"Uh, hi Mike.? What's wrong?" I was a little uncomfortable.
"I have to tell you something, but you can't tell anyone, promise?"
Mike looked a little concerned.
"What is it?"
"Well, I was gonna ask Gazelle to marry me, but I don't know if this is the right time since we are going on tour now and all." Mike explained.
He showed me the ring. It was beautiful. It had a silver band with a diamond the shape of a heart on it.
"I haven't told Billie or Tre yet. They would just tell everyone. I trust you and only you because you are my best friend." he said. I felt so honored.
"Really?"
"Yes, you are my best friend."
"You are mine too." I said giving him a hug.
"So, when do you think I shoud propose?"
"I would wait until after. I mean, Gazelle will be excited enough to see you, and I think it would make it even better."
"Okie dokie. Thanks, Dria." Mike said, and left the room.
I was so happy for him. He was such a great guy, and he deserved a someone special in his life.
"Damn!" I yelled and turned down my radio in the car. I was on my way to Tre's house.
"Hello?" I said, sounding irritated.
"Hey, Dria, this is Tre. Are you okay? You sound mad."
"Oh, no, I'm fine." I said, trying to sound a little happier.
"Okay. Well, when are you coming over?"
"Well, I'm on my way now."
