The Rights Of Cali: What Are You Going To Do, Billie?...Kill Me?, chapter 3
She wasn't really surprised to see everyone she loved standing there welcoming her home, after Billie had given it away. But she loved it all the same, at first coming back into the house was scary. But once everyone was more than nice to her, she was more comfortable. Tre was there, she had thanked him more than once, Mike was there, Kelly was there. Ollie was there, making sure the food didn't run out or go all over the place. And Billie was there.
It really felt like she was having the best time of her life...
"Do you want me to help clean up?" Cali asked as she watched Ollie wash up the dishes, Billie was in the other room picking up some empty beer cans.
"No thanks...I'll clean up, you just relax...Besides, I have a good slave helping me out, and Mike," Ollie said, laughing at her own joke, Cali laughed as well.
"Ollie, I can't thank you enough...I must of put you through-"
"It's okay Cali...you're like a daughter to me," Ollie said, giving Cali a friendly wink. Cali smiled and turned her crutches and she started to hop to where Billie was.
She stood in the doorway, watching Billie Joe try to hold all of the beer cans. He looked like a confused puppy, trying to find out how to do something. She laughed to herself and watched him silently.
"Having fun Mr. Armstrong?" she asked, Billie didn't know she was standing there. So he quickly go a fright and dropped all of the beer cans that were cradled in his arms.
"Aw...Now I have to pick them up again," he whined giving Cali a cute face.
"I would help you...but, Y'know," Cali said. He looked over to her and grinned.
"Excuses, excuses..." he joked, she playfully rolled her eyes and started to walk to the bedroom stairs.
"I feel like I'm going to pass out, I'm going to bed, night night Billie Joe," she said, kissing him on the cheek, making him drop the beer cans after he had just dropped them. He grinned like a little 5 year old, he puckered up his lips. Like he was an inexperienced 10 year old kisser.
"Don't I get a real kiss?" he said, closing his eyes tight. She patted his head and walked to the stairs.
"Night!" she said, with a giggle as she hopped up the stairs. He smiled to himself and kept cleaning up.
Cali lay in her bed, hearing soft murmurs from down stairs, she could hear Billie yelling at Mike about dropping something on his foot. But all she could hear from Mike was laughter.
She couldn't fall asleep, being in this house just made her...Feel, as though Tommy was right outside, just waiting for her to come out. What scared her the most was walking from the front door, in the same hall way she was almost killed in. She hated thinking about it, it scared her half to death...She just didn't know how something so bizare could happen to her. She tried to drag the thought away from her mind by closing her eyes. She dreamt about things, like what it would be like seeing Green Day play infront of millions of people, she dreamt about her and Billie, just lazing around on a rainy afternoon. But one person came to her mind, Rhys...
She just thought about, why he gave his number to her...But she couldn't think of Rhys being anything other than a friend, a male friend, that just happened to be good looking.
"Hey you..." Cali heard a voice, and a person slipping into the bed beside her. She felt and arm carefully wrap around her waist.
"Finished?" she asked, realizing that it was Billie's warm touch.
"Yaha...And I couldn't be more happier."
"I would be happy too, after cleaning all of that..." she said, giggling.
"That's not all I'm happy about..." he admitted. She smiled to herself, knowing exactly what he meant.
"I'm glad you're home, Miss Right." She turned over and looked at him.
She kissed him on his soft lips, making a tingle buzz in the pit of his stomach.
"Hmm..." she hummed as she kept her lips on his, he felt her tongue slip past his lips. It grazed against his, a feeling he thought he would never feel again. She softly gained control and laid on top of him, her hands moving up his shirt, gliding over his skin. She felt each bump as her hand went up to his chest and then back down, their lips moving against each other's, he softly let out a moan. Still feeling the tingle.
"Hmm..." he pulled apart from her, her breath being a bit caught in her throat. "Do you think we should be doing this?...What if I hurt you?" he said, asking it like she was virgin. She pulled away from his warm body and laid down next to him...
"Okay..." she said, feeling the rush go away. He sighed, as he pulled his arm over her. Like before, they both laid there. Waitng for each other to drift asleep.
Cali blinked her eyes open, the afternoon sun finally hit her face. She gently moved herself over, but not to find Billie there. She breathed out and then yawned. Her eyes feeling heavy, she just wanted to go back to sleep.
But she got up, and carefully got dressed. She didn't want to look at the stitches. She was just going to act as though they weren't there. And she still couldn't feel her leg, she couldn't wait until she could.
She slowly hopped down stairs, she saw Ollie sitting on the couch, reading some book.
"You don't work?" she asked, sitting next to Ollie. Ollie looked up from her book and smiled.
"Took the week off, I know I'm needed here more than there." Cali nodded and looked at the book Ollie was reading.
"The Catcher and the Rye..." she read. Ollie laughed and put the book down...
"Billie read this once, I think...Which is quite surprising, I just thought I would read it, to see why Billie thinks it's such a great book..." Cali laughed.
"Oh, before I forget, Kelly came by earlier...She said she was coming by to pick you up, she wants you to meet someone...And go to her shop."
"Okay...But where is Billie?"
"Oh...Um, they went to some thing with Larry, about Kerplunk. I think..." Cali raised an eyebrow, Kerplunk?
"Jussi, this is Cali...Cali this is Jussi," Kelly said, introducing Jussi, pronounced as Yussi in Finnish. Cali shook his hand.
"Nice to meet you Cali, ahh...Sorry about Tommy, he is, how you say? A Crazy mother fucker," Cali smiled.
"I think that too..." Cali said, laughing as well. Jussi laughed and so did Kelly...
"You don't mind if I look at some CD's do you Kelly?" Cali asked, knowing that Kelly was more than interested in Jussi, and the same could be said for Jussi about Kelly.
Cali walked away, she went to look at all the aisles of CD's, she let Jussi talk to Kelly.
"So...Jussi," Kelly said, flirt! Jussi came closer to Kelly, Cali kept an eye on them both, playfully rolling her eyes as she watched Jussi move in on Kelly.
"Me and my band are playing...Soon, want to come and watch us?" Jussi asked, Kelly swallowed her breath, because Jussi's eyes were not too far away from her's.
"Hell yes!...I mean, yeah...That'll be great," Kelly said, Jussi smiled at her. Making Kelly melt. He went in closer to her, and kissed her cheek.
"You've got to come..." he whispered. She almost fell over, she softly placed her hand on his chest. Feeling how rock hard his it was...
"I will..."
Cali's eyes wandered away from the two love birds, she noticed a CD she hadn't seen before, she picked it up and looked at the back and front cover. She was shocked to see it.
"1039/Smoothed Out Slappy Hours. Green Day..." she read, a big grin came to her face, she searched around in her pocket and pulled out some money, she hopped over to where Jussi and Kelly were, of course Jussi was almost 2 inches from Kelly's lips. And her hand still on his chest, as they whispered to eachother from behind the counter.
"The band is called The 69 Eyes, we are good," Jussi whispered, his lips slowly moved closer to Kelly's lips. He felt a very strong need to just kiss her lips just once. But he stopped when he heard a cough from behind him, Kelly was almost on the floor, being unable to breath.
"Um, paying custumer here...I'm your number one priority..." Cali said, trying to hold her laughter in. Kelly rolled her eyes.
"Excuse me Jussi..." Kelly said, stepping away from him.
"Hello, I would like to buy this please..." Cali said, still grinning. Kelly took the CD from Cali's hands and looked at it.
"You can have it for free, seeing as though I'm such a nice person..." Kelly said, smiling as she gave it back. Cali put the money down on the table...
"I still wanna buy it, take the money...Please?" Cali said, pleading for her to take the notes. She wanted to buy the CD, she was a real Green Day fan.
Kelly looked down at the money, and then to Cali. Then purposely looking over to Jussi, just for the hell of looking at how hot he was.
She felt guilty taking money from a good friend...
"Okay, I'll give it to you for half price?" Cali shook her head.
"It's just 15 dollars Kelly." Kelly sighed and took the money, Cali grinned and took her very own Green Day CD.
"Thank you!" Cali said happily. She looked over to Jussi, "Um...I know this is going to ruin everything, but can someone take me home?...I kinda gotta pee real bad..." Cali asked, giving an excuse, to leave Jussi and Kelly, who looked like they were about to have sex on the counter.
"I will take you, you can come if you want Kelly?" Jussi said, giving puppy dog eyes, pleading for her to come. Kelly agreed...
As Jussi pulled up in front of the Armstrong household, Cali looked at the CD she had just bought, feeling proud of herself. Supporting the band she loves, and the guy who was the lead guitarist and singer. Who she also loves...Cali looked to the front seats of Jussi's car.
Kelly looked in the Jussi's Grey and blue eyes, as they were focused on her's. He lifted his hand, and rested it on her cheek, finally giving her the kiss Kelly was dieing for.
"Finally!...Thanks for the ride. Bye!" Cali said, quickly getting out of the car. Before she could get hurt by two people having sex on her in the back seat of the car.
As Cali walked away from the still parked car, she looked over to another car. That was parked in the drive way, she hadn't seen the car before. The garage door was open and she could hear Tre yelling at Mike for taking the last beer. Which made her laugh.
She hopped over to the garage and went in, she saw Billie sitting on the couch, biting his bottom lip.
"Hey guys...What's up?" Cali said, trying to hide the CD so that she could surprise them. Billie quickly looked over to her and then jumped up and went over to her...
"You might wanna go up inside, someone is waiting for you..." Billie informed her, Cali raised an eyebrow, she put the CD in the pocket of her jacket and followed Billie as he went up the stairs.
Cali walked into the lounge room, after Billie and saw a woman she hadn't seen in a long time.
"Mom?!" Cali yelled out. Her mom quickly got up from the couch and ran over to Cali, giving her a big hug. Cali pushed her away...
"Cali...I'm sorry!"
"What the fuck is wrong with you?!" Her mom looked shocked at Cali's sudden outburst. Billie stood back, knowing that she was going to go crazy, Ollie nervously watched. But is was to be expected, how else would she react?
"I'm sorry!...I didn't know!"
"That's a fucking great excuse!...Oh I didn't know my own fucking daughter almost got killed!" Cali screamed at her mother, knowing that what she was saying was right.
"But-"
"What the fuck?!...You suddenly come back from no where!...You told me you were going to get me out of that fucking school, which you fucking didn't!...And now!...All the fucking sudden I see you...AFTER...I almost fucking got killed!" Cali screamed again, her mother didn't know what to say...
"I really don't want to see you here right now...So can you please leave?...Come and make up excuses when I'm not so fucked up in the head..." Cali said, her mother nodded, and left. But it wasn't going to be the last time she saw her, her mom just knew that it wasn't the right time to make come backs...After everything that had happened.
Cali laid in her bed, not being able to sleep. Everything that was happening to her, felt like one big dream, and seeing her mom. After she had made her so angry for not coming to help her out, she felt like the worst. Like nothing could save her, no one could save her, it just felt like she had been hanging off the side of a bridge, just holding onto a rope. With the rope breaking every time something bad kept on happening to her, and at that moment, the rope was hanging on by a thread.
She felt like she was going insane, Billie had gone to sleep. She said that she just needed a little time to think, he understood. So he left her, but she was wrong for having the little time alone, she needed someone...
Her mind felt like it wasn't her mind at all, and there was nothing to get it back. So before she knew it, she was creeping around Billie's room, searching for that little relief so that she could get out of her state of mind, that little relief just happened to be stuff that makes you happy, stuff that you could get addicted too. The stuff that made Mary Jane pay a visit...
Once she had found old Mary Jane, she had at least found her 3 times. She had found some vodka, that Ollie seem to have...So she sat in her room. Being completely off the planet, after about 3 joints, 7 shots of vodka, she finally passed out on the bed...
It really felt like she was having the best time of her life...
"Do you want me to help clean up?" Cali asked as she watched Ollie wash up the dishes, Billie was in the other room picking up some empty beer cans.
"No thanks...I'll clean up, you just relax...Besides, I have a good slave helping me out, and Mike," Ollie said, laughing at her own joke, Cali laughed as well.
"Ollie, I can't thank you enough...I must of put you through-"
"It's okay Cali...you're like a daughter to me," Ollie said, giving Cali a friendly wink. Cali smiled and turned her crutches and she started to hop to where Billie was.
She stood in the doorway, watching Billie Joe try to hold all of the beer cans. He looked like a confused puppy, trying to find out how to do something. She laughed to herself and watched him silently.

"Aw...Now I have to pick them up again," he whined giving Cali a cute face.
"I would help you...but, Y'know," Cali said. He looked over to her and grinned.
"Excuses, excuses..." he joked, she playfully rolled her eyes and started to walk to the bedroom stairs.
"I feel like I'm going to pass out, I'm going to bed, night night Billie Joe," she said, kissing him on the cheek, making him drop the beer cans after he had just dropped them. He grinned like a little 5 year old, he puckered up his lips. Like he was an inexperienced 10 year old kisser.
"Don't I get a real kiss?" he said, closing his eyes tight. She patted his head and walked to the stairs.
"Night!" she said, with a giggle as she hopped up the stairs. He smiled to himself and kept cleaning up.
Cali lay in her bed, hearing soft murmurs from down stairs, she could hear Billie yelling at Mike about dropping something on his foot. But all she could hear from Mike was laughter.

"Took the week off, I know I'm needed here more than there." Cali nodded and looked at the book Ollie was reading.
"The Catcher and the Rye..." she read. Ollie laughed and put the book down...
