Three Guys And A Girl, chapter 3
"The door!" Remie shouted at Billie. He right next to her he wriggled is finger in his ear and stood up.
"You don't have to shout. I'm sat right next to you. Sheesh." Billie slowly dragged himself lazily to the hall and opened the door. "Yeh?" he asked the guy.
"Uh, I came for a band audition... " Billie looked at him blankly. "... To play the drums?"
"Ah yes, step into my humble home."
Billie took a step to the side then drew his arm back and grinned bizarrely. The guy looked at Billie for a bit then grinned just as strangely and stepped inside.
"I like you!" Billie exclaimed to him. He slyly strolled into the living room where Remie was sat scoffing her face with popcorn and introduced them both. "Remie this is... " Billie looked at the guy as if waiting for him to finish off the sentence.
"My name's Frank but everyone calls me Tre!" he smiled as he held out his hand for Remie to shake. Remie smiled back ecstatically then grabbed his hand, pulled him closer and hugged him as if he was an old-time friend she hadn't seen for years.
"Welcome to the family!" she yelled.
"Ha! We don't even know if I'm good enough yet!" he replied, " but I'm sure ill get pretty close!"
He grinned making Remie sneer.
"Come with me," Billie said then guided Tre into a small room that contained a battered drum kit, two homemade amps and one guitar. Billie crossed his arms and stood to the side letting Tre jump onto the seat.
Immediately he started off with a steady beat then transforming it into a 3 minute long drum solo. By this time Remie had appeared and was stood next to Billie smiling eagerly.
Billie nodded his head in appointment.
"You're pretty good! Do you know My Generation?" he said whilst plugging his guitar into the amp and hanging it on his shoulder.
"Ya." Tre replied whilst looking Remie up and down as she ran into the hall were someone was shouting for her.
"Cool. Count me in!"
Tre did as told then started to beat in time with Billie's playing and singing.
After getting halfway through the song, Remie and a guy walked in.
"This is Mike!" she shouted over the loud music over to Tre, whilst pointing to Mike. Tre nodded his head to Mike then grinned as he saw Remie jump up excitedly. Mike quickly tuned the string he had just finished applying to the bass then put it around himself, plugged it in and joined Billie and Tre.
Remie sat down on the floor and listened to them play together as a band. She grinned excitedly then just sat there until they had finished. When they had finished she clapped loudly at them.
"Brilliant!" she exclaimed, "Fucking brilliant!"
Billie turned around to look at Mike who whispered something at him that Tre couldn't quite make out. Billie nodded then turned to Tre. "You're in," he said to Tre.
Tre's eyes lit up. "What? Are you serious?"
"Yeh."
"No way!" he shouted and jumped up off of his seat and onto Billie.
Mike and Remie laughed loudly at them. "You wanna help come up with the new band name?" Mike interrupted.
"Yes but first..." he started as he rolled off of Billie, "I would like to light up a celebratory joint!"
"You don't have to shout. I'm sat right next to you. Sheesh." Billie slowly dragged himself lazily to the hall and opened the door. "Yeh?" he asked the guy.
