Slap In The Face, chapter 2
Well two years had passed and my boys had become quite a hit with the ladies, I guess it was because as everyone got older and more opinionated they started to respect us individuals more. Or it could have been because both BJ and Tre had dated cheerleaders. Tre had become the official class clown with his dirty jokes and smart remarks which ended me up in detention with him every Friday for either falling out of my chair with laughter or for backing him up with "Mr Turney there's a dead cat on your head" and then screaming insanely and running out of the class (I still blame Frankie though), Mike was a handsome devil who was all broody and had the girls falling off him but he only ever had one or two serious ones and BJ (a.k.a 2 dollar bill) became the "i wanna piss off my dad/or boyfriend" guy or the "i want the lead singer" bang. For a while it made me sick and i just couldn't see what they liked in him but he was my best friend and that was how i was supposed to feel right?
I had boyfriends but not many i was kinda studious and scary because my wish was to be successful and get the fuck away from my over bearing father and i guess the fact that i had kicked 5 of the jocks in the nuts for various reasons didn't help my case, or the fact that i had 3 guys who would give death glares to any male within 10 feet of me. I didn't mind although they were protective of me and i was protective of them.......
I kept them in line as much as i could, but I wasn't an angel i drank, and smoked but not to the point of oblivion like Frankie, BJ and mike would. They were sweet though (they never did the heavy stuff in front of me) because they knew i wasn't into that I didn't a little pot but id kill them if i caught them tripping on acid or coke because id seen what it could do to people (one of my best friends O.Ded). I always worried about BJ the most though.....
***flash back***
"Billie please you cant keep selling this shit, that was too close tonight"
"Listen dia i really don't wanna fight you know me and ma need the money"
"Anna would rather starve then have you end up in the slammer like Johnny"
"I can give you money its ok" i pleaded with him
he pulled me into a hug and whispered "i swear ill be more careful and i wont end up in jail like my brother ok i promise" he wiped the tears from my eyes and dropped me off home.
***********
He never took me on another drop again and he stopped selling and he and the guys started getting serious about Greenday. They were amazing and began gaining a local fan base bigger then any other band in town, id make t-shirts hand out flyers and sell cds on the street and at shows it kept me really busy and then the guys dropped a bombshell.
******flashback*******
"hey kitten you wanna come her a sec" yelled tre from the backstage at the bar they'd just finished a show at
"I coming asshole and dont call me kitten"
"we have an announcement" said BJ and Frankie together
"let me guess you guys are getting married" i put on mock tears and smile "oh ive waited for this day for soo long"
they grinned and said "were leaving school to work full time on the band"
I stood there mute a moment before i stuttered "alll o of you"
"no lydia just the two monkeys i'll still be at school with you" said mike
"Thank god i wont be alone with all the jocks and cheerleaders they wanna kill me you know." i exclaimed
They all laughed and we had a group hug before being kicked out of the back room cos the next band needed it
.***********
It felt weird without them all around but now that they were playing even more shows i was even more busy and couldnt understand how BJ managed to have a different girl every week and i couldnt even manage one boyfriend, Then i saw him Shane weston he was tall and muscular with these chocolate brown eyes and sandy blonde hair, i thought it was love at first sight and amazingly he asked me out the very same day.
"Hey im Shane and i couldnt help noticing you"
"Im Lydia and i haveny noticed you" i replied with a flirty smile feeling like a complete tool
"Well Lydia id like to know if i could take you to dinner this friday night."
shocked i nodded my head and smiled dumbstruck that a jock would ask me out. he leaned down kissed me softly and for the rest of the week we were inseperable
I thought i had found the perfect guy, he was sweet and kind, smart, funny and an amazing kisser. On thursday afternoon BJ was picking me up so Shane walked me to the car i was too oblivious to notice the death glares Billie was giving Shane. I hopped in the car and sighed
"Was that a jock, kissing you?" asked BJ
"Dont sound so suprised whats your problem" i retorted
"Yeah Billie shes a nice piece of ass all the jocks want her" said tre from the backseat
I thanked tre before hurtling myself into the back to bash him for referring to me as a "nice piece of ass".
"Quit it you two do you have a fucking death wish, im trying to drive here"
"Sorry Dad" me and tre giggled from the backseat
We dropped Tre off and Billie came in for a drink before he had to go home
"Hey what are you doing tommorrow night" he asked
"I have a date why?"
"Mums out for a couple of days visiting Charlie so i thought you might wanna stay over tommorrow night."
"Sorry BJ but ive got this date and i havent had one for ages get mike or Frankie to hang."
"there both going away for the weekend, it ok ill survive." he sighed making me feel guilty by using his puppy dog pout
**the next night**
I got dressed and primped for my date with the sexy shane and he was even right on time.
"Wow you look gorgeous"
"Thanks you scrub up pretty well yourself" i grinned
we saw a movie and then headed to a bar where he knew the bouncer so we could get in, we talked all night, danced and i was more then a little tipsy half way through the date then my phone rang
"hello"
"its me Billie"
he began to ramble on and on about nothing and Shane was begining to look uncomfortable so i said
"BJ i really dont have time to listen to you whine ok im on a date"
"Ok dia ima sorry" he hung up
and my date continued for another two hours before we decided to head in as we headed back to my place we passed Billie's and feeling a huge sense of guilt for ignoring him i yelled
"STOP ill get out her"
"are you sure?"
"yeah its my best friends place ill be cool"
I gave him a drunken kiss before heading down the back path and jumping through billies open window. I landed on his bed and realised Anna wasnt home so i could have gone through the front door
I pulled off my heels and found bj sprawled on his bedroom floor with a piece of paper gripped in his hand i yanked it out and realised it was a song
Do you have the time to listen to
me whine
about nothing and everything all at once
i am one of those melodramatic fools
neurotic to the bone
I chuckled at the words before adding no doubt about it to the end and putting it into his unfinished song box
"Billie Billlie BILLIE" I yelled untill he opened his eyes and bounced up
"What what santa what are you zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz" he started to fall asleep again and i realised it was like 3 in the morning and if Anna found him like this he would be kicked out for good! So i dragged him into the bathroom and dropped him in the shower where i turned the cold water on him
"FUCK" he screamed as he awoke
i laughed and told him to get cleaned up while i made some coffee and got rid of the beer cans and half smoked joints in his room.
An hour later everything was cleaned up and he fumbled into his room in his boxers
He blushed and said "Im sorry dia i shouldnt have put you in this position, i wrecked your date and you just saved my butt"
"trust me darling you didnt wreck anything we had a greatttt time" i said
He looked mortified at my inuendo and i couldnt help staring at his naked torso to stop my strange perving session on my best friend i told him to get into bed and i tucked him in like i always did (my nickname was mother hen)then i climbed over him to get out the window and kissed him on the forehead
"Goodnight BJ"
Before i knew what was happening his arms had yanked me to him and my best friends lips were on mine and it felt amazing
I had boyfriends but not many i was kinda studious and scary because my wish was to be successful and get the fuck away from my over bearing father and i guess the fact that i had kicked 5 of the jocks in the nuts for various reasons didn't help my case, or the fact that i had 3 guys who would give death glares to any male within 10 feet of me.
