A 'Tre Cool' Love Story, chapter 10
It was very quiet when Sarah and Tré went downstairs.
"Dad, where are you?" Tré yelled out. There was no answer.
"He's probably not home," Sarah said.
"Yeah he's probably still at work or probably just out," Tré said, shrugging his shoulders. "I'm hungry, can you cook?"
"Ah... no not really," Sarah said unsurely. "The last time I cooked, I burned 2 minute noodles." Tré fell to the floor into a fit of laughter.
"How the hell can you burn 2 minute noodles?" Tré said still laughing.
"In the microwave," Sarah said and then hit Tré on the arm.
"What was that for?" he asked.
"You laughed at me, so I'm not cooking anything," Sarah said crossing her arms.
"Meanie!" Tré said rubbing his arm. "Fine I'll cook something or maybe we should just walk down to Billie's house and eat there."
"No I can make something," she said. "Don't worry I won't burn anything. I'm planning not to cook anything." Sarah didn't really want to go down to Billie's house because she knew that Tré will talk about what they did last night.
"Are you sure?" Tré asked. "I don't want you burning down our house."
"Tré you want something to eat or not?" Sarah said a little annoyed.
"Fine give me whatever you can whip up," he said and sat down at the kitchen table. Sarah went to the cupboard and got the bread out. Then she put two slices in the toaster. She went to the fridge and only saw peanut butter.
"Is peanut butter ok with you?" she asked.
"Yeah anything just as long it's edible," he replied. "Um, Sarah what's that smell?"
"What smell?" Sarah said sniffing the air. "Shit the toast!" Sarah ran over to the toaster and switched it off. Two slices of charred toast popped out.
"You burnt toast!" Tré said laughing. "I can't believe you burnt friggin toast!"
"Shut up!" Sarah said. "I think your toaster was fucked up."
"Yeah right," Tré said. "That's just your lame excuse for burning the toast."
Sarah sat down at the table and put her head in her hand. She felt like crying. Tré was after all being a little bit harsh.
"Babe, are you ok?" Tré asked as he patted her back. Sarah just shook her head, while it was still in her hands. "I'm sorry," Tré said and hugged Sarah. Sarah didn't react so Tré just got up and went to the toaster. He put another two slices in there and put it down. Sarah looked up to see what he was doing.
"Yep our toaster fucked up," Tré said pulling out the two slices of toast he put in. Both sides were burnt black. Sarah smiled. "So are you ok?"
"Yeah so what are we going to eat then?" she replied.
"Let's just go down to Billie's," Tré said heading for the door. Sarah really didn't want to go but she just followed. It was only a 15 minute walk down to Billie's. As they got nearer to Billie's house, Sarah and Tré heard someone shouting.
"You fucking asshole!" it was Jordana.
"You had no right to go through my fucking messages!" that was Billie.
"Yeah well someone kept texting you last night and I had to find out who!" Jordana yelled and got into her car in Billie's driveway.
"Where are you going?" Billie asked in a worried voice.
"Away from YOU!" Jordana yelled and backed out of the driveway. She put the rude finger up at Billie and sped off down the street. Billie was going to chase after her, but knew it was pointless.
"What was that all about?" Tré asked. "Trouble in paradise?" Tré gave Billie a suspiciously look then a smile.
"You're an idiot!" Billie said.
"No you are," Tré replied. "You're girlfriend looks to be on the verge of breaking up with you. So you are definitely the idiot."
"Tré stop being a dickhead," Sarah said. "So what happened between you? Seriously, Jordana doesn't get angry so easily. I'm guessing you did something very wrong."
"No well I didn't do anything," Billie said.
"Sure sure," Tré said sarcastically.
"Well this chick that I met down at Gilman a while ago kept texting me while Jordana and I were doing you know what," Billie said and hung his head.
"Well did anything happen between you and this girl?" Sarah asked trying to understand the situation.
"No she asked for my number so I gave it to her, but I didn't think that she would try to call or text me," Billie said and he sat down in the middle of his driveway, and he put his heads in his hands.
"You shouldn't have given her your number,"
"Shut up Tré!" Sarah and Billie said simultaneously.
"Ok well if I'm gonna be treated by shit then I'm going inside and raid your kitchen," Tré said and ran up to the house.
"Do whatever," Billie said with his head still in his hands.
"Is there anything else you want to talk about?" she asked. Billie just shook his. He got up and went inside. Sarah followed him.
"Yeah Ollie it's a true story," Tré said nodding his head. Ollie started laughing. Tré put a spoonful of cereal in his mouth.
"What's a true story?" Sarah and Billie asked at the same time. They looked at each other and both of them laughed.
"It's true that I have only one testicle," Tré said touching his crotch.
"Yep that's a true story," Billie said smiling.
"It all happened when I was riding my unicycle across-"
"Tré please don't tell us the story," Billie said. "I cringe every time I hear it."
"Ok ok," Tré said.
"Sarah you did know that Tré only had one testicle right?" Billie asked.
"I'm walking out right now!" Ollie said putting her hands up and then walked out of the kitchen.
"Yeah she found out last night," Tré said and a sly smile crossed his face.
"What only last night?" Billie asked raising an eyebrow. Sarah slowly nodded. She knew that Tré would tell Billie or Mike or both of them. "Was that your first time?" Billie asked Sarah. She nodded her head again.
"Are you fucking serious?" Billie asked. Sarah nodded her head.
"She was great," Tré said and kissed Sarah on the cheek. She smiled.
"You're really quiet today Sarah? Are you ok?"
"Yeah I'm fine, I'm just really hungry," she replied putting her arms around her stomach.
"Hey help yourself! I think I should go and give Jordana a call," Billie said grabbing the cordless phone and left the kitchen.
Sarah grabbed the box of cereal on the table and Tré gave her a bowl and spoon. They started talking and eating. Ollie walked into the room and noticed that Billie wasn't there.
"Where's Billie?" she asked the two sitting at the kitchen table.
"Trying to talk to Jordana," Tré replied. At that moment Billie walked into the kitchen.
"So what happened?" Ollie and Sarah asked at the same time.
"She says it's over and she doesn't want to see me ever again," Billie said. His voice was a little shaky, but then he ran upstairs to his room. The others could hear him strumming at his guitar.
"We better head off," Sarah finally said. Tré nodded and Ollie walked them to the door.
"Thanks for breakfast," Tré said cheerfully and he took Sarah's hand. They both headed home.
A year had passed since Billie and Jordana's break-up. Everyone knew that there was no way in hell that they would get back together. They hated being around each other. Finally, Jordana had decided to leave California and never return. Billie started going out with the girl that kept texting him. Her name was Adrienne Nesser and Billie absolutely loved her. Meanwhile, the relationship between Tré and Sarah was rock solid. It seemed like nothing would break them apart but was this true?
"Dad, where are you?" Tré yelled out. There was no answer.
"He's probably not home," Sarah said.
"Yeah he's probably still at work or probably just out," Tré said, shrugging his shoulders. "I'm hungry, can you cook?"
