Chapter 13

Mike: I wasn't sure how to start.I took a long sip of coffee and tried to think clearly. "Tre's ... fine" damn it didn't sound convincing ... "And Billie ..." what can I say? I had to get Adie's address somehow ... but I don't want to put Danny in an awkward position. Steve would rip his head off if he helped us. "He's fine ..." I said, rolling my eyes.Brian gave me an angry look ... "No !! he's not" Brian interrupted me. "Brian !!" "No, Mike.He needs to know.I know you want to protect him, you're too good to everyone.But we have to think of Billie".

Danny: "What do I need to know ...?" I asked confused.I was a little worried because I didn't really know how Steve was going to take it all, or Adie.We haven't talked about Billie in years.Steve has forbidden us to put his name in our mouths.Everytime Billie could be heard on the radio, he switched off.We both avoided the subject.Adie is doing very well, she lives her life and looks ahead.But that's only good as long as we don't mention Billie.Adie is a strong woman.She started a fashion label in Minnesota a few years ago.She did put a lot of work and love into it.She has wonderful friends and is happy.She has her own website to sell her stuff.It's going fantastic.She has been in two happy relationships after Billie.At the moment she is single and she doesnt pressure her in something.She is doing good and waiting for the right one to come around.Sometimes I think that Billie is the reason why she didn't marry one of the guys.She was happy with both, but she was still coming with excuses ...

Brian: "Danny ... I know that Adie is like a sister to you and you love her. Billie is not doing well ... for years. He tries to suppress it and lives his life. There are days where he's fine. But at the end of the week he collapses. He cries and gets drunk or is constantly high. He struggles with depression and aggression.He can't control his emotions. He tried to connect with other in a romantic way ... but he could not because he still loves Adie and misses her madly. He doesn't know we're here. He'll hate us ... but we'll be fine with that. As long as he's happy again. Please help us Danny !! We need to talk to Adie ..."
