Home Sweet Home...I hope, chapter 1
*Jamie's POV*
There I stood, guitar and suitcase in hand on the Armstrong's porch looking into Tre's eyes.
"Who are you girl?" I didn't answer, "You're weird."
Billie Joe scowled at him and Mike hit him in the arm. Mike looked into my deep blue eyes, the same color as his.
"Sweetie can you tell me your name?"
"Jamie Pritchard."
"Jamie Pritchard?" Mike's jaw dropped.
"Myla's kid?" he asked I nodded.
"My parents died in a car crash and I didn't want to go to foster care so I came looking for... You." Tears flowed to my eyes.
"I'm so sorry," Mike said wrapping me in a hug
"Woah Mike, this means I'm an uncle," Tre said dancing around us clapping his hands.
"No you moron, it means Mike's an uncle," Billie Joe laughed. I raised an eyebrow at Tre who was charging toward me. He picked me and started running around in the front yard screaming, "Mine, mine, and mine!" Mike pried me from Tre's grip and then Billie Joe tripped Tre and he fell into the Koi pool. I felt bad so I went over to help, but when I reached my hand out he pulled me in. SPLASH!
Me and him looked at each other straight-faced but burst into laughter when Tre spit a koi fish at my face.
"Okay you two, this is why we have a fish pond?" Adie laughed.
"JOEY, JACOB COME DOWN HERE!" Billie Joe yelled at the bottom of the stairs.
"Mommy why is Tre and that girl in the fishy pond?" Said who appeared to be Jacob. I turned beet red when Joey walked out. He was the spitting image of his father; black hair, black eyeliner, black shorts. But then I realized we were wearing the same Ramones shirt. I noticed him checking my attire too but when he got to my reddish-caramel colored hair we met eyes and both blushed. He ran inside and came back with a towel and handed it to me.
"Thanks... "
"SURE BRING THE PRETTY GIRL A TOWEL!"I blushed again, so did Joey. I handed the towel to shivering Tre who kissed me on the cheek.
"Isn't she the nicest, Joey!" Joey was visibly uncomfortable.
"Stop it Tre, you're scaring the poor kids,"Billie laughed.
"Okay Jamie why don't you go clean up and we will figure this out." Mike smiled.
"Yeah, you can stay in the guest room if that all right with your uncle," Adie smiled.
"Fine with me until we can get your room at my house fixed up. It's storage now because you haven't stayed there for years."
"Thank you guys so much."
***Upstairs Guest Room***
My room was beautiful, it was crimson with green rope lights lining the ceiling; I had a green bed with a canopy with more green rope lights twisted around it. Adie had fixed up earlier. I heard a knock at the door.
"Come in," I said. Joey walked in.
"Hi," he said.
"Hi," I smiled.
"So sense you're gonna stay here for a while I thought maybe we get to know each other..."
"Uh, sure, what do you wanna do?"
"I thought I could show you Christie Road?"
"Thee Christie Road Tracks."
"Yes," He laughed.
"Okay, hold on, let reply my eyeliner."
"Me too."
As we looked in the mirror he asked,
"Are you eleven?"
"No, my birthday is the 18th of May."
"Cool."
We told Billie Joe we were going to take a walk but Tre must have heard from the kitchen because he yelled,
"AWWW THE TWO LOVEBIRDS ARE GOING TO CHRISTIE ROAD!"
But Mike must have whacked because we heard Tre yell,
"Ouch."
I just shook my head.
We walked at least two miles just talking when Joey grabbed my wrist and told to come on. We walked under a cherry tree and sat down.
"Why are you being so nice to me?"
"Uh, can't tell you."
"Oh please," I begged.
"Nope."
"Oh come I won't..."
He kissed my lips softly.
"That's why," he smiled. I looked at my watch, 8:30. But it was still light.
"I'll race you back," I said grabbing his hand.
We raced all the way back, bursting through the gate and jumping in the pool. When in the pool we calmed down. I tore my shirt off revealing my swimsuit top. Joey blushed.
"It's not my bra, stupid!"
"Oh," I got closer as if about to kiss him, but I splashed right in his face the instead.
"Hey!" as his eyeliner ran down his face.
"Come on, you want to watch the star shower?"
"Yeah," He grabbed three towels and a blanket. He gave me and himself a towel and laid one on the grass. We laid down and he threw the blanket over us. I leaned my head on his chest.
"Look a shooting star," I said turning around so I was facing him.
"Make a wish."
"Why? It's already come true," he said kissing me.
***Tre's POV***
"Tre, will you get the kids please?" Adie asked.
"Sure," I walked outside to Jamie and Joey laying on a blanket talking and all of the sudden Joey kissed her and being the gentlemen I am, I walked away.
***Joey's POV***
OH MY GOD SHE ACTUALLY LIKES ME! I KISSED HER.... TWICE!
"I think we should go inside."
"Yeah."
"Ya wanna watch a movie in my room?" She asked.
"Uh sure."
"What movie, a horror flick?"
"Okay."
Half through the movie Jamie fell asleep in my arms she was cute as she slept. I swept the red thin hair from her face.
"You really like her, don't you," Tre said leaning in the doorway.
"Yeah."
"Love?"
I blushed.
"Don't get embarrassed, I saw you kiss her."
"Uh, yah I do."
***Jamie's POV***
"Tre?"
"Yeah whats up?"
"Uhh... I wanted to ask something?"
"Ask away."
"What was up with Mike and my stepmom?"
"Oh I knew this was coming. Come here on the porch." Tre put his arm around me,
"About seven years ago Mike and Myla got into a huge fight about you... "
"About... Me?"
"Yep, Mike is your dad... But he had to give you to child protection services because he was on tour and had no one to take care of you and they gave you to Myla. But about two years ago he went to get you back but Myla said no." Tears flodded to my eyes. Tre hugged me.
"But look at you now, you're a beautiful young girl who has a huge future ahead of her," Tre comforted.
"Thank you," Tre kissed my forehead." You can be my uncle."
"YES!"
"Wait does Billie Joe know this?"
"Yeah."
"Thanks."
I ran inside to Mike and stopped right in front of him.
"Hi," he said.
"Hi... Dad," I smiled. He picked me up and kissed my cheek.
I looked over my dad's shoulder and looked at Tre who was grinning at me. I smiled.
Me and my new found dad spent the rest of night catching up.
***Joey's POV***
"Oh snap! I fell asleep on her bed after watching Jackass last night!" I thought to myself. I turned over to find Jamie still sleeping facing me. I stared at her.
"Keep staring and I might do a trick."
"Did I wake you up?"
"No."
"Good."
She walked down stairs and I followed, she was pouring herself some coffee.
"You know that's not good for you."
"Bite me!"
"Okay!" I chased aroung the living room and out into the backyard and finally grabbed her and twisted her around and put my arms around her and softly nibbled on her neck while she was laughing hysterically.
"Stop it!" She laughed, so I did.
"You said bite me,'" I said using air quotes she rolled her eyes.
There I stood, guitar and suitcase in hand on the Armstrong's porch looking into Tre's eyes.
"Who are you girl?" I didn't answer, "You're weird."
Billie Joe scowled at him and Mike hit him in the arm. Mike looked into my deep blue eyes, the same color as his.
