Blood, Sex, and Booze, chapter 5
They walked up to the second floor to apartment number 6. Mike unlocked the door and we walked in. It was very different from the outside. It was a big mess, and their instruments took up almost the whole living room. They had a small TV in the corner. They had one couch in front of it. It looked like it was meant to be a very nice looking place because they each had their own room and the kitchen was very nice. There was even a space for a dining table- which they had.
"I'll show you your room," Billie said.
His room was very cosy. He had a big bed with black and red conformers. Posters were sloppily hung all over.
"Very nice;" Amy Lee said.
"So, want to go rent a movie or something?"
She turned and looked at Billie and thought for a second.
"Wanna go for a walk?" she asked.
"Really? I-I mean yeah, if that's what you wanna do."
"Okay."
She moved a little closer so Tre and Mike would hear
"Is it okay if we just go?"
"Sure."
"Mmk."
They walked out to Tre and Mike playing game cube.
"We're gonna go get some movies," Amy said.
"Cool, get Master of Disguise for me, will ya?" Tre asked.
"Yeah, sure," Billie replied.
They began to walk down the street when Amy Lee blurted out:
"Two years ago, when I was a freshman, my boyfriend raped me."
"Whaat?!"
"Mmhm, I almost didn't live if it wasn't for my other friends going to the police station."
"That's what you didn't want to tell us?"
"Yeah, sorry."
"No! It's fine. I'm so sorry that happened to you."
"Thanks, just... don't tell Mike and Tre yet, okay?"
"Got it."
All at once, Amy's knee kind of snapped, she almost fell but she caught herself.
"Are you okay?" Billie asked.
"Erm, I-I'm fine. It's just probably from earlier, when me and Mike walked to the store, I fell on the ice on my knee, so.."
"Oh. Let's just go back."
"Fiine."
They got back to their apartment and explained what happened to Tre and Mike.
"Well, I'm pretty tired. Good night," Mike said.
"Okay, Nightie night," Tre said.
"I'm pretty beat too." Amy Lee looked at Billie.
"Okay I'll go get some blankets for m-"
"It's okay, I'll sleep on the couch."
"Noo, no, no, no. I really don't give a shit. The couch is fine"
Amy sighed and thought for a minute. Billie and Tre exchanged grins.
"What if I slept on the floor and you slept on your bed?"
"What's the point of that? The floor is worse than the couch."
"So I have someone to talk to."
"I thought you were tired."
"I'm not that tired."
Tre chuckled.
"How about I sleep on the floor and you sleep on the bed?"
"Nope."
"You're stubborn."
"Whatever. I like the floor. Besides, the carpet in your room is soft."
Billie sighed.
"Fine."
"WAIT!" Tre exclaimed.
Billie and Amy looked at Tre, eyebrows raised.
"You know that cot from when Eddie lived here?"
"Mmhm," Billie said.
"Don't we still have it somewhere?"
"Yeah, I think in Mike's room."
"Well, then there you go. Billie could sleep in the cot, and Ames could sleep in the bed."
"Sounds fair," Billie said.
"Fine."
They all got ready to go to sleep and Billie and Amy lay down on their spots.
"I'll show you your room," Billie said.
His room was very cosy. He had a big bed with black and red conformers. Posters were sloppily hung all over.
