This Time Around, chapter 2
Keri sat in her office with the number n front of her as she waited patently for Billie Joe to answer the phone.
"Hello." a male voice finally said.
"Hello, Mr. Armstrong?" She questioned coyly with the idea still fresh in her mind.
"Yes, who is this?" Billie Joe asked curiously.
"I'm Keri Lakewo- I mean Keri erm...Smith. Yes Keri Smith from Holiday records."
"O hi! Did you guys sign us?!" he asked eagerly.
"Well no not as of yet sir, but you can be." she said, twirling the phone cord between her black and white nails.
"What do you mean we can be.." Billie asked sceptically.
"Well Mr. Armstrong, I'll be forward with you. We don't like your attitude and your sound isn't quite right yet but luckily, you have me." Keri said, unbuttoning her top button of her shirt for more comfort. "You see, I have been assigned to help you and your band to be the type of band Holiday Records would love to have."
"..o umm ok..." Billie said confused, while scratching the back of his jet black hair.
"So I would like to get started as soon as possible if we could, do you think maybe we could meet up for dinner tonight to talk and start to work?" she asked, with a seductive tone.
"Ok ,where should I meet you?" Billie joe asked, pulling a pen and paper out.
"899 Adeline Street, there is a small café there where I'll be waiting outside for you."
Billie nodded "OK thanks, Keri."
"Anytime Hun. See you then," she said, hanging up and biting her lip.
'What the fuck am I getting myself into?!?!' she thought.
***
"Mel does this look ok?" Keri asked, stepping out of her bedroom. She had a short black and red strapless, baby doll dress with red open toe heels. Her dirty blonde hair and highlights hung gracefully on her shoulders, and the side bangs covered her right eye slightly. Her blue eyes were rimmed in black eyeliner and her lips had a small amount of clear gloss applied.
"Keri you look H-O-T hot " Melissa said snapping her fingers in a joking way.
Keri giggled, as she fixed her top to make her cleavage more noticeable. "So what are you doing while im gone?" she asked as she did this.
Melissa shrugged "I'll probably have my boyfriend come over and we'll make use of your bedroom." she teased.
"Ha, ha, ha" Keri said sarcastically.
"No but really, I'll probably go over his place and watch a movie with him and his niece. He's on babysitting duty tonight." Mel concluded.
"I won't be out to late don't worry." Keri said, giving herself a look over I the mirror while she and Melissa spoke back and forth.
"Well don't forget, you can bring him back here and fuck him all you want but it just can't interfere with our plan." Melissa said, quite bluntly.
"Mel! I'm not gonna fuck him tonight!" Keri said as she blushed slightly and began to head out the door.
"You know you want to!" Melissa muttered right before Keri shut the door.
"I heard that!"
Melissa laughed to herself as she drank her water and turned on the TV.
***
"Hi, are you Keri?" A man asked, tapping her shoulder and sure enough, it was Billie Joe. His hair was shorter than his curly mop he had back in high school and it was now black. Those though, those eyes didn't change.
Keri immediately became nervous he recognized her from the way he was looking over her, but then she remembered that half her chest was busting out the top of the dress and took the time to introduce herself and tell him to have a seat.
"So your just going to work with us for a while? Help us get started basically?" he questioned, pushing his now empty plate from him and leaning back in the chair after she explained the situation to him fully.
"Yes basically." Keri answered, sipping the much-needed red wine that sat in front of her.
Billie nodded and took a long hard look at her, trying to see past the bangs that covered her eyes and remove some of the makeup with his mind.
"Is there a reason why you are staring at me Mr. Armstrong?" Keri said with flirtation in her voice.
"You just look familiar from somewhere. Did you grow up around here? Maybe I met you when I was younger." he questioned.
"Um yes I did but I'm sure we haven't met, I uh went to private school all my life." Keri said biting her lip, thinking that this was it and he remembered her.
"O, you just must have one of those faces" he concluded, giving her a once more over. "So are you ready to go? I'll walk you back to your car if you want." he offered, pulling out her chair for her.
Keri blushed, she had dreamed of something like this when she was younger, it wasn't real that it was happening now and that she was in control of it.
"Yes and Thank you." she said sweetly, standing up and meeting him eye to eye wit their faces closer than ever before.
Quickly, she jerked her body away, "My car is this way," she said, leading him to it.
Billie Joe sighed, tipping his head to the side and smiling as he checked out her ass as she walked. "I'm coming." He called out to her after snapping himself out of it and reminding himself it was only business.
***
"So I don't understand" Mike said after Billie had told them what had went on that night and he poured Tre another cup of coffee as they sat late in his soon-to-open diner he owned.
"Yeah man really, we are gonna get signed with the help of a hottie, what seems to be the problem?" Tre asked, dumping an un-Godly amount of sugar into his coffee mug.
"The problem is that she is a "hottie" I don't want anything to get in the way of our music and I just broke up with Ellie after like years and years in a relationship." Billie moaned, dropping his head onto the counter top.
"I still don't know why you stayed with that bitch for so long." Mike muttered taking a seat between his two best friends.
"I don't wanna get into this Mike." Billie grunted, digging for his keys in his pocket.
"Whatever man, I'll see you later."
Billie gave them both a nod as he dragged himself off the stool and out the door.
***
"What a wonder-fucking-ful way to start off my day!" Keri huffed, as she walked at a brisk pace through her workplace halls, trying to get out the coffee that some asshole just spilled on her.
"Hey Kare-Bear." Blake said looking up as she whisked by. "Whoa honey look at that stain!!" he exclaimed stopping her.
"I know Blakey I know," she moaned. "What am I gonna do?"
Blake thought for a moment, bringing his index finger to chin with his hip jutted out in a thinking manor.
"I got it!" he exclaimed. "Give me your shirt and I'll run to the cleaners a few buildings down."
"I can't just give you my shirt Hun." Keri sighed, unlocking her office door and stepping inside with him.
"Sure you can, I'll tell them it is needed ASAP, they do a great job trust me." Blake said with helpful blue eyes.
Keri looked back him for moment, thinking it over to herself before giving in and unbuttoning her white, fitted top.
"Promise to be fast?" she asked as he took it.
"Promise!" he called out, shutting her door and leaving her there in nothing but her mini skirt and a bra.
**
"Well this is great" Keri said to herself, tapping her fingers along the cherry wood desk out of boredom while she waited for Blake to return with her shirt.
Just then the door burst open.
"Blake Thank God I thought-." But she stopped dead in her tracks when she realized it wasn't Blake standing in her office doorway but Billie Joe and his two band mates.
"Baby, im not Blake but I can be if you want me to." Tre said as he eyes wandered all over her much exposed body.
"I erm...o fuck." Keri said biting her lip while tugging her skirt down as much as she could and trying to hold her chest.
"This gentlemen....is Keri." Billie said proudly, outstretching his arms to her as he flashed her a toothy grin while Mike and Tre smiled to each other.
"Hello." a male voice finally said.
"Hello, Mr. Armstrong?" She questioned coyly with the idea still fresh in her mind.
"Yes, who is this?" Billie Joe asked curiously.
"I'm Keri Lakewo- I mean Keri erm...Smith. Yes Keri Smith from Holiday records."
