I am just a fan, chapter 6
Sara's Point Of View
He was just standing there and then he turned around and he looked at me and said "So this must be Billie Junior," he said looking at Billie. "I have heard a lot about you little man. How's Life?"
I just stood there I didn't know what to do I was just so surprised I mean how would you feel if Billie Joe Armstrong was talking to your best friend. Billie Joe turned to me and said. "This must be Sara, Hi what are you up to today then?"
"Err erm... " I stuttered. "Well... I... Err..."
"Are you here for the night?" he asked me. I just nodded I couldn't talk at all.
"Sara can I talk to you?" Billie asked me. I nodded quickly and ran out of the room.
"You knew he was going to be here didn't you?" I asked him very seriously.
"No cross my heart and hope to die I didn't honest I just wanted to ask you if you needed a glass of water and I knew you wouldn't speak if we were in there so do you?"
"Oh right yes please," I smiled and walked into the kitchen. I followed Billie to the sink he handed me the glass.
"Thank-you Billie," I said then gulped it down.
"So you can talk," Billie Joe said to me. I gave him the evils he was just like Billie. " So Sara what instrument do you play?"
"I play the guitar and keyboard," I said looking at my shoes I knew I had to talk to him sometime.
"What is your favourite to play?" He asked.
"Guitar," I said I was starting to blush.
He opened his mouth to say something when...
DING DONG!!
It was the doorbell Billie and I ran to answer the door but when we got there no one was there.
DING DONG! We quickly opened the door and this very tall man with a Mohawk was trying to hide from us.
"Hey, man don't frighten the kids," Billie Joe said coming up from behind us.
"Ok!" he said and walked in the door. After I saw his face I told myself that it was my idol the one I treasured the most it was Tre Cool. He looked at me then stuck out his tongue I stuck mine back out I all ready liked him more.
DING DONG!!
"Who could that be?" Tre said going to answer the door but I got there just before him
"It's not your house," Tre said to me like he was 5.
"It's not your house either," I said in the same way he said it to me. I opened the door and MIKE was there. This day was getting better and better by the minute.
Billie Joe's Point Of View
We all sat in the living room after everyone was there I was a very long silence until.
"Anyone got cookies?" Tre asked every one started to laugh there heads off till Sara said "oh my fucking god Tre is thinking about cookies and we are all just about to eat."
"Sara will I phone your mum and tell her you have been swearing in my house again," Ollie said very seriously.
"No Sorry Ollie I never meant to I wont do it again," Sara said with tears in her eyes but trying not to show it.
"It's ok as long as you promise not to do it again," Ollie continued. Sara nodded. Billie whispered something in her ear it sounded like "Go and get your guitar from upstairs." She nodded and ran upstairs with Billie right behind her.
Billie's Point Of View (Little Billie)
"Lets go up stairs and you can show me your new song that you wrote," I whispered in her ear. She nodded and we ran up stairs.
"Well let's hear it then," I almost shouted. She picked up her guitar and started to sing and play.
"Oh my fucking god that was... Oh My God," I said as she put Frankie down (Yes it was named after Tre's dad) then there was a knock at my bedroom door I opened it Billie was standing there.
"How long have you been knocking at the door?"
"Since you two ran up stairs," Billie said. I looked at Sara she was like a red balloon. I have never seen her so embarrassed.
"Are you ok Sara?" I asked her she shook her head and ran to the bathroom pushing Billie and me over.
"OPS! Sorry, mate I never meant to like ease drop but when she started to play it was so good I just didn't want to disturb her," Billie said looking at me.
"It's... It's ok she will calm down and come out but I think you might have to talk to her," I told him.
"Ok I will thanks," Billie said really starting to worry.
"No problem just don't mention her dad," I whispered dad in his ear. He just nodded.
Sara's Point of View
"What The Fuck am I doing I just knocked over a rock star and his brother," I yelled at my self I was as bright as a balloon.
Go and see Billie he will be worried.
I can't.
Just cause Billie Joe Armstrong is there god. BILLIE IS YOUR BEST FRIEND FOR FUCK SAKE HE HAS ALWAYS BEEN THERE FOR YOU GO AND SEE HIM NOW!!
You're right.
I opened the door and saw Billie and Billie just sitting waiting I came all the way out Billie noticed me and pocked Billie Joe. He got up and walked towards me. He didn't look 34 he looked so childish so sad so misunderstood his eyes are such a beautiful green anyone would love to have these eyes. I looked all the way in his eyes and he seemed different something had changed. I didn't look at him like he was a rock star I looked at him like he was my friend, like he could understand me. "Hey can I talk to you Sara?" Billie Joe asked me. I nodded and we went into the room. "Your eyes they change colour... hea... When you ran out they were a blue. When you came out they were a brown. And now they are a beautiful red," Billie said sitting on the bed.
"I got that from my dad; blue is embarrassed, brown is my natural colour so when I feel something but not sure then they would be brown, and I get pink eyes they mean trust, I get orange to they mean passion... " I said looking over at my guitar picks that I never leave home without.
"And red means... " Billie said holding my head up.
"Love not like Love, love but understanding Love you know what I mean," I added I had a feeling that one is pink and the other is Blue.
Billie nodded then said "What colour is anger or sad anger?" he asked me.
"Anger is green and sad anger is a topaz or white," I said he gave out a little laugh and then said
"I want to play you a song not by Green Day but by Simple Plan do you like them?" I nodded he started to play I new that song it was my favourite right now. I picked up the other guitar and started to do lead guitar while Billie did chords.
(Billie) Do you ever feel like breaking down?
Do you ever feel out of place?
Like somehow you just don't belong
and no one understands you
Do you ever wanna runaway?
Do you lock yourself in your room?
With the radio on turned up so loud
so no one hears you screaming
(both) No you don't know what it's like
When nothing feels all right
You don't know what it's like
To be like me
(Both) To be hurt
To feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like
Welcome to my life
(Billie) Do you wanna be somebody else?
Are you sick of feeling so left out?
Are you desperate to find something more?
Before your life is over
are you stuck inside a world you hate?
Are you sick of everyone around?
With their big fake smiles and stupid lies
while deep inside you're bleeding
(Both) No you don't know what it's like
When nothing feels all right
You don't know what it's like
To be like me
(both) To be hurt
To feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like
Welcome to my life
(Sara) No one ever lied straight to your face
No one ever stabbed you in the back
You might think I'm happy but I'm not gonna be okay
Everybody always gave you what you wanted
Never had to work it was always there
You don't know what it's like, what it's like
(Sara) To be hurt
To feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
(Both) To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like (what it's like)
(Both) To be hurt
To feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like
Welcome to my life
(Billie)Welcome to my life
(Sara) Welcome to my life
Billie Joe's Point Of View
She reminds me of... well me when I was her age. She likes all the bands I do. I can tell that Billie and Sara are going to be more than just friends for a long time. It might even go further than that but that is then this is now.
"Sara for a girl of 10 you have a great voice and you play the guitar like a rock star, and that song you wrote is amazing have you ever thought about being in a band."
"Yeah all the time but mum says I am to young and that what I write is just a bunch of rubbish," Sara told me.
"1. Your songs are not rubbish and 2. As long as the band is good then it doesn't matter how old they are," I told her she looked much better." So what's up?"
"A few months ago I lost my dad he died of cancer I think it has been 6 months and I feel lonely without him. I don't really understand why it had to be my dad he was the best he knew when something was wrong," Sara said then started to cry. I gave her a hug and said.
"I know how you feel someone who you loved the most had just left do you want to talk to Billie for a while?" I said and she nodded I called on Billie to come though.
Billie's Point Of View (little Billie)
"Hey Sara you want me to talk to you?" I said she nodded.
"So can you tell me everything I am really confused about it?" she asked me.
"Yeah sure I will do it for you," I told her
He was just standing there and then he turned around and he looked at me and said "So this must be Billie Junior," he said looking at Billie. "I have heard a lot about you little man. How's Life?"

"It's not your house," Tre said to me like he was 5.
