Sweet Home Alabama, chapter 2
Ryan pulled in the drive way of the huge, white mansion on Ocean Boulevard.
Holy shit... Gemma thought, she had never seen a house this big before.
Gemma got out of the car and Ryan grabbed Gemma's bags and unlocked the front door. Gemma stepped into the house. A girl with blonde hair walked up to Gemma.
"Hi, you must be Gemma. I'm Brittany, Mike's girlfriend," she said while pulling Gemma into a hug.
"Hey," Gemma smiled.
"Thanks for dropping her off, Ryan," Brittany said.
"No probs," Ryan said as he walked out the door.
"Sorry your uncle is'nt here, he should be home in a few hours," Brittany said
"Okay, cool," Gemma said.
Brittany picked up Gemma's bags. "I'll show you to your room," Brittany said.
Gemma followed Brittany up the white staircase until she got to the second floor and walked down the hall to a white door. Brittany opened the door and walked in with Gemma still following. The room was huge; there was a widescreen TV, a double bed, a huge stereo, and a couch in front of the TV.
Brittany put Gemma's bags down. "So I guess I'll leave you to unpack," she smiled.
"Thanks," Gemma said as Brittany walked out.
Gemma walked over to the window; she could see right into the neighbour's window, then she noticed a girl playing air guitar; the window was open, and Gemma could hear her music. She was listening to "Basket Case" by Green Day.
Gemma opened the window. "Hey!" she yelled.
The girl immediately stopped playing air guitar and turned her music down. "Hi," she replied.
"You like Green Day?" Gemma asked.
"Yep," the girl smiled.
"Cool, you wanna come over for a while?" Gemma asked.
The girl's eyes widened like she had just seen a ghost. "Yeah, sure," she said.
Gemma closed the window and walked down the stairs to wait for the girl.
Brittany walked over to Gemma. "Have you finished unpacking?" she asked.
"Oh, no I havn't started; I just invited the neighbour over," Gemma said.
"Oh, okay, cool," Brittany said.
The doorbell rang as Gemma opened the door. "Hey," Gemma said.
"Hey," the girl said as she walked in. "Nice" she said, looking around.
Gemma laughed. "I'm Gemma by the way," Gemma said.
"I'm Hayley," the girl said.
"How do you know Mike?" Hayley asked.
"He's my uncle," Gemma said.
"Oh, that must be so cool," Hayley said.
"Why?" Gemma asked.
"You know, him being in a famous band and all," Hayley said.
"What are you talking about?" Gemma said, getting confused.
"I mean come on! He's the bass player from Green Day!" Hayley said, getting really excited.
"Wait, what!?" Gemma said.
Brittany walked back into the front hall. "Gemma I just got off the phone with our uncle; he said he will be home in ten minutes so you can finally meet him!" Brittany exclaimed.
"Oh..." Hayley said. "You havn't met your uncle, so I'm guessing you didnt know he is in Green Day."
"Oh my God, Brittany is Hayley serious? Uncle Mike is Mike Dirnt?" Gemma asked.
"Yeah, didnt he tell you?" Brittany said.
"No," Gemma said.
Brittany laughed. "Well this is funny," she said.
"I think I should go," Hayley said.
"Oh, okay, bye!" Brittany said as Hayley walked out the door.
"I'm going to my room now," Gemma said.
"Um, okay," Brittany said.
Gemma walked back up the staircase, still in shock as she walked into her room.
Gemma started unpacking her stuff when she heard a knock at her door.
"Come in," Gemma said as she sat on her bed.
The door opened and Mike Dirnt walked in. "Oh my God," Gemma said. "Why didnt you tell me you are Mike Dirnt from Green Day?"
Mike laughed. "I thought your mom would have told you," he said.
"As if; mom never tells me anything," Gemma said.
Mike laughed again.
"I seriously can't believe you're Mike Dirnt still. Oh my God, can I meet Tre and Billie?, When did you meet Brittany? She's cool. Do you know Hayley? The next door neighbour?" Gemma asked as she talked really quickly.
Mike laughed. "Your mom said you talk alot," he said.
"Yeah, but I can't help that I have alot of things to say," Gemma said.
"You wanna meet Tre and Billie?" Mike asked
"Yes!" Gemma yelled.
Mike laughed again. "They're downstairs, waiting to meet you," Mike said.
Gemma followed Mike down the stairs and walked into the living room where she saw Billie and Tre sitting on the sofa.
"Oh my God!" Gemma said.
"Oh my God!" Tre said.
Gemma raised one eyebrow, Tre did the same. Gemma looked at Billie; he smiled, and Gemma smiled back.
"Hey! How come you smile at Billie but raise one eyebrow at me?" Tre said.
"Okay, no need to scare her," Billie said to Tre.
Gemma laughed.
"Hey Gemma, go get ready, Billie's having a barbeque in about an hour," Mike said.
"Okay," I said.
"Yeah, I should go get ready for that," Billie said. "See you guys in a while," he said; Tre poked his tongue out at Gemma and followed Billie out.
"Hey Mike, can I bring a friend to the barbeque?" Gemma asked.
"Um, yeah sure. Who's your friend?" Mike asked.
"Hayley, she lives next door," Gemma said.
"Okay, cool," Mike said.
Gemma walked up to her room, she saw Hayley next door again. Gemma opened the window.
"Hey," Gemma yelled.
"Oh, hey," Hayley said.
"You wanna come with me to a barbeque?" Gemma asked.
"Um, okay," Hayley said. "Cool, come over in about an hour, and then we'll go," Gemma said.
"Okay," Hayley said. Gemma closed the window and started to get ready.
