My Teenie Sister Is Going Out With The Guy I Like? Why Does He Like HER?!, chapter 14
It happened so fast. Defiantly the fastest week of my life. It started waking up to Laura's music. Green Day teenish. Whatever. When my mum came into my room.
"Hey sweetie. I made some cookies want some?" she said.
"Um. It's 8 o' clock in the morning I have school soon isn't it early? And very random?" I asked.
"Yes I know dear but you've been very good lately, very sweet. Unlike Laura..."
It hit me like a whole lot of rocks. I'd practically switched lives with Laura.
***
I went to school that day.
"Mel...I have to confess something. I erm will probably run away in the next couple of days," I said to Mel.
She looked shocked but regained her composure. She slowly nodded her head.
"Okay...I guess if you have to you have to. But promise to call me and Gemma every week!" She squealed.
"Deal!" I said to her.
After school that day we made our way to the 7/11.
"Guys gather around. I have an important announcement to make," I sighed.
Everyone mumbled and crowded around me.
"Well you've probably noticed everything has changed with me and my sister in the last couple of months. We've practically switched lives. Well I haven't changed that much but everything around me has. I miss my old life so I've decided to get away and go back to my old home."
There were a few gasps, snorts and a few wails. But everyone agreed in the end, Hey! Most of them were runaways from home.
"I'LL MISS YOU!" Gemma wailed and hugged me.
"Hey, hey, hey I said I'd call you and Mel every week!" I said and she let go.
"Okay then"
I saw someone walk out of the shadows. Jimmy.
"Hey..." He said shortly.
"Hi," I replied.
He ran over and gave me the most passionate kiss I had ever received at the time, and probably ever will for a long time.
"I...have to go," I said quickly and ran. Ran away.

That night after dinner I locked myself in my room writing a note. My goodbye note. I also had to go to bed early as I was planning to sneak out at night and drive all the way back to my hometown. Even if it took a week. In the end the note I came up with was this:
Nobody likes you...
Everyone left you...
They're all out without you...
Having fun...
Where have all the bastards gone?
The underbelly's stacks up ten high
The dummy failed the crash test
Collecting unemployment checks
Like a flunkie only along for the ride
Where have all the riots gone?
As the city's motto gets pulverized
"What's in love is now in debt"
On your birth certificate
So strike the fucking match to light this fuse
The town bishop's an extortionist
And he don't even know that you exist
Stand still when it's do or die
You better run for your fucking life
It's not over till you're underground
It's not over before it's too late
This city's burning
It's not my burden
It's not over before it's too late
There's nothing left to analyze
Where will all the martyrs go when the violence kills itself?
And where will we all go when it's too late?
It's not over till your underground
It's not over before it's too late
This city's burning
It's not my burden
It's not over before it's too late
I can't take this place
I'm leaving it behind
I can't take this town
I'm leaving you tonight
And I left. I packed my bags, my Green Day stuff and left.

It was week 3 back at my home town. Do I regret leaving? Hmm...A bit. All that unsolved drama is going to be on back for a while but I will get over it. I'm currently living with Emily who won't stop obsessing over Billie Joe. Heh, heh, I have met him. I let it go that she doesn't believe I met him. If I was in her position I wouldn't believe her either.
"Ready to go back to school? You've been fully re-enrolled!" Emily said to me happily.
"More like are they ready for me?" I said happily skipping off.
***
I sighed as I was moshing along to Green Day at The American Idiot tour 2005. Yes 5 years had past. The drama was off my back but still in my mind. I was just as obsessed with Green Day as I was 5 years ago. My story (Which had been edited so much it wasn't really my story anymore) was a rock-opera. Well not really my story. But I was in it. That was pretty cool.
"It's something unpredictable...but in the end it's right. I hope you had the time of your life..." Billie strummed and sung and on came the fireworks for a few minutes and then Green Day jumped off stage leaving many fans sighing and disappointed it was over.
"Man I'd do ANYTHING to get backstage!" Emily shouted.
"Hmm...that gives me an idea..." I said and carted her off.
A big security guard with sun glasses backed me off.
"Backstage pass?" He asked.
"Err...I'm the real Whatsername," I said.
He laughed. "You don't know how many times I've heard that."
Emily walked me off a bit. "Are you crazy?" she asked.
I walked back to the security guard and saw Billie walk past backstage.
"BILLIE REMEMBER ME IT'S KELLY/WHATSERNAME!" I shouted and the security guard grabbed me.
Billie's eyes went wide and he rushed over.
"She's with me. And the other girl can come too," he said signaling to Emily. She was still in awe.
"I have someone you need to see," Billie said smiling and led me off to the lighting room.
There was a girl there with bright orange dyed hair wearing a "The Ramones" t-shirt. She gasped when she saw me and Emily.
"KELLY!" She shouted and hugged me. She had tears in her eyes.
"Laura?" I asked.
"Listen. I know the last time you saw me in a The Ramones t-shirt I thought it was a brand not a band and the last time you spoke to me I paid out Green Day but I've changed. I love punk music now and I actually hate emo. I can't stand teenies but not people who dress like them." She smiled at me.
"Wow...This is COOL!" I shouted hugging her back. From that moment on she wasn't the perfect teenie sister I hated or the emo sister who hated me. She was my sister: Laura. Who needs stereotypes when you're out of your teen years?
Sure there's a lot of shouting now but it was just after a Green Day concert, this drama is getting lifted I've carried for 5 years and a family reunion? COOL!
"Mum, Dad there's someone you want to see!" Laura said excitingly and out came my mother and father.
"KELLY!" They squealed together and hugged me.
"I'm so sorry for discriminating you all your life," Mum cried while hugging me.
"Mum its okay," I said to her.
"Life's too short for stereotypes," she said.
"I'm just going to go meet Mike and Tre..." Emily stalked off feeling out of place.
"There's someone I want you to meet," Laura said and led me off to another place.
A guy was sitting on the couch just staring into space. I knew his face though and hadn't been able to get it out of my mind for 5 years. His beautiful angel face.
"...Jimmy?" I asked.
"Well not anymore...I prefer my real name. James," he smiled.
"Well James I'd like to get to know you a bit more," I smiled back.
A fresh new start to an old life I'd been living
"Hey sweetie. I made some cookies want some?" she said.
