I Traveled Through Time To Meet Billie Joe, chapter 5

As soon as he stopped kissing me I stood up.

"I should go now, Billie. It's late!" I said and left immediately. But he didn't say a word. As I was leaving the room I saw him getting in the bed. That night was too strange. As I was getting in the bed I remembered our fight. I hate to fight with Billie. It's all my damm fault after all. But however I fall asleep quickly.

In the morning the sun light woke me up. I opened one eye and to my surprise I saw a big bug laying in my bed and staring at me.

"Oh god!" I said and then I fall from the bed.
"Where this came from?" I stood up and I went straight to Billie's room.
"Billie, wake up!"I screamed. "There's a huge bug on my bed. Go and kill it."
"Calm down. Why are you so scared? I wouldn't think you are afraid of bugs. Poor little creatures," he said while heading to my room.
"Little? It's a fucking monster!" I don't think I said but I'm scared to death of bugs and spiders. I wish they will all die!


Billie opened my room's door and steered at my bed.
"Come on Fay. There's nothing on your bed," he said with boredom in his voice.
"But...the bug was here. Right here. Where?" I was shocked. It couldn't have run away in so little time. "It was big...and..." Billie didn't care anymore and left the room.

"What time is it?" he asked from the hall.
"I dunno..." I said while I was looking for the bug under the bed.
"Oh my god!" he screamed. Then he quickly put on some clothes run to his desk, took a notebook and left. This happened so quickly that I didn't even realize the first time.

"Billie can you help me? I think I saw it under the bed." I raised my head but there was nobody. "Where the hell did you go"? Now I was alone in the house with a huge bug. I don't think I've said it but it was huge. So I quickly run down stairs. But first I lock my door.

"I think I shall calm down now. Billie will kill it later. Hmm and now lets eat." As I was heading to the fridge I saw a shadow coming from my left and heading under the fridge. But the shadow was too fast and I couldn't see what it was. As I was eating I realized I was still dressed in Billie's Pjs.

"Oh my god. I can't stay like this. Oh, I so hate those bugs," I said, and left the table. I went upstairs to put on my clothes but as I opened the door I saw three or four little creatures 'dancing' on my T-shirt.

"Shoo! Go away!" I said while I was trying to kill 'em. But it was useless, they were too fast. "That's it! I'm calling Ollie," I said angrily. You should think it's a stupid thing but those creatures really started to piss me off. So I dialed her number.

"Hello. Ollie?. Sorry for bothering you from your work but I have to tell you there are bugs spinning all over here. There are thousands of them." Of course it wasn't like that. But hey, how can you stop a pissed off girl? "Can I call the terminators?"
"Well I don't think that's a good idea. Why don't you try to solve the problem yourself?"
"But you don't understand! I can't." As I was talking at the phone two huge bugs came from under the fridge and I started to scream.
"Are you ok? Why did you scream?"
"'Cause of them. Please Ollie let me call them."
"But where is Billie?"
"I dunno. At school...I dunno...please..."
"Ok call them. But make sure they don't cost much."
"Ok. Bye," I hung up before Ollie could say goodbye.A moment later I was calling the terminators and after an hour they knocked the door.

"Saint god you came. They are every where!"
"Calm down lady. Where are they?" said a fat man.
"Well first in my room. I'll show you. Come on." I took the two dudes upstairs in my room. They looked for a while and then told me they have nests there.
"We'll have to use a very dangerous poison so you'll have to leave the house for a couple of days."
"What? A couple of days? Are you mad? I don't have where else to go. Plus this is not my house!" I almost screamed.
"Look lady I don't care. You wanna get rid of them? Then you'll have to leave the house," the other man said and pulled me out of the room.

Almost two hours later the terminators left and so did I. I locked the house and I went to see Ollie. As you know, she was working as a waitress. In the beginning I couldn't find the restaurant where she was working. It was already four o'clock when I reached Ollie's workplace.

I came in and I quickly found her. When she saw me she made a silly face.
"Please don't tell me something's wrong," she said.
"Define wrong!" I said with shame.
"Ok sit down," she said.
"Aaaaa yes...ok..." I said but I missed the chair. She helped me stand up.
"You see.. I called the terminators after all..but..."
"Fay, please tell me I gotta go to work."
"Ollie, they said we can't go in there for two days 'cause of the poison they used."
"What? There couldn't have been so many bugs."
"Oh yes they were. They even had nests."
"But where are we going to stay. Does Billie know?"
"He left in the morning. I don't know where he is."
"Oh Fay! He doesn't know. And if he doesn't know he'll enter the house."
"And there is poison everywhere in the air. Holy shit," I said and I started to run to the house. Ollie followed me.

We reached the house in few minutes and we found the door opened. As I entered I saw Billie lying on the floor. I covered my mouth and nose with my T-shirt's sleeve and I got him out of there. Ollie immediately called the ambulance. As the doctors took him I started to cry. Ollie went with Billie in the ambulance and I a stayed there. I locked the door again and I started to walk to the hospital.

"This wasn't supposed to happen. It's my entire fault. I should have stayed here waiting for him" I said and I kept crying. It was seven o'clock and the night started to take over the sky. I didn't even know where the hospital was. I felt like I was the biggest loser in the world. When I finally arrived at the hospital I found Ollie on the hall talking to the doctor. I let her finish talking.

"Please tell me he'll be ok..." I said with a sad voice.
"Well the doctor said the poison wasn't lethal. He just passed out. He'll be on feet in a few hours."
"Saint god. You know it's my fault and I wanna say sorry for what happened. I'm such a mess."
"Don't worry it isn't you after all. It's the bugs, remember?" She said and smiled.

After I spoke to her the doctor allowed me to go and see Billie. I opened the door and I saw him sleeping. However I entered. At least I could see him. I made my way to his bed and I touched his had. Then I realized he wasn't sleeping he was just thinking.

"Hey!"
"Hey, how are you? Do you fell better? But as soon as I saw his face I also saw his wounded eye. "So you told your mom...about the eye?"
"No...I told her I got into a fight and she believed me."
"Okay, so how do you feel?"
"Dizzy," he said.
"Yeah..hey I hope you'll forgive me.."
"For what? It's not your fault."
"It's the bugs I know..."
"What bugs?"
"So you don't know?"
"No. I didn't talk to mom yet," he said
"There was poison in the house 'cause of the bugs. I called the terminators. And if you don't know that you don't know we can't stay there for a couple of days."
"Where are we going to stay?"
"I dunno..."
"That's bad. What month are we?"
"What? Why do you wanna know?"
"My friends are coming back from their holiday in September. We could stay at their place."
"I think it's September. Actually it's the first of September."
"Cool. They must be home now. Give me the phone please."
"Here take it!" I said and gave him the phone.
He dialed and said hello. The dude must have answered him 'cause he continued talking.
"Done. We can go to their place."
"Who're the guys?"
"Some friends of mine. You'll meet them. They're nice guys."
"But what about Mike? Why can't we stay at his place?"
"'Cause of his mom."
"What happened to his mom?"
"He argued with her. She's such a bitch sometimes."

It was about eleven o'clock when Billie, Ollie and I left the hospital. As Billie said we were heading to his friend's house. That house wasn't far from our own. Billie knocked the door and a boy dressed colorfully answered.

"Hey. What's up?" The dude answered. He was strange. His face was round and he had curly blond hair and blue eyes. Still he looked funny. It seamed he was always smiling.

"Hey how are you? Where's your brother?" Billie asked and entered.
"Come' on," the guy told me.
"I don't know. He must be upstairs. Go and check," he said
"Hi, I'm Charlie," he said and shacked my hand. "And this is my..." he laughed. "My sister." He couldn't stop laughing. "Why don't you tell her your name sis?" he said.
"Oh hi. I'm Berry. The short for Strawberry," she said.
"What kind of name is this?" I said in my mind.
"Hi I'm Fay. Nice to meet you guys."

Berry was very strange. Her hair was curly and kinda short. She seamed more like a boy than a girl and she was dressed like a hippie.

"Well Mrs. Armstrong we meet again," Charlie said.
"Don't be silly Charlie," she said and went straight to the kitchen. "Where's Linda? I must thank her for what she's doing for us."
"She must be somewhere in the kitchen."
"Hey come'on. I'll show you your room," Berry said.
"You're gonna stay with me and Billie's gonna stay with Charlie. I hope you don't mind sleeping with me in the same bad," she said and laughed.
"Nope, I don't mind as long as you're a girl."
"We reached her room and she opened the door. The room was clean and even smelled of perfume. In the middle was a huge bed witch by the way was pink.
"Hey nice bed." I said and I sit down.

"Don't worry I know you don't like the color. Billie hates my room too," she said.
"Billie's been here?"
"Oh yes...don't tell Charlie, please."
"Don't worry I won't"
"So is Billie your friend too or he's just Charlie's?" I asked while I was turning on the TV.
"Well. We're just friends now..."
"What do you mean now? He was your lover or what?" I asked surprised.
"Well hell yeah." I couldn't help myself and I laugh.
"What?"
"Oh nothing forget it. So why did you two split?
"I didn't like him anymore. I didn't take it serious but Billie had a crush on me. It was a hard time for him," she said and blushed. I couldn't believe Billie liked that girl. She had a pretty face but something was wrong with her.

"Hey Billie told me you have no clothes so I'll borrow you some of mine. Let's see what do we have here?"
"Oh no..Please" I didn't have a problem with her clothes but they were really horrible.
