As Long As I'm Here // Billie Eilish

Articles, articles, articles

2 days later.

Billie and I have just came back home from the grocery store. We walk inside with the bags and starts to put all the food in the refrigerator when Patrick, Maggie and Finneas approaches us. They look nervous.

"Hi! Hi Finneas!" I greet them.

"Hi, dear. Um, there is something you need to see" Maggie says and looks at us.

Patrick and Finneas are standing right behind her.

"What is it?" Billie asks.

Patrick clears his throat and speaks.

"It's an article, about you two" he says and looks Billie in the eyes.

Billie looks scared as she puts the bag down on the table.

"W-what do you mean? What does it say?" She asks them.

"Maybe we should sit down and-" Finneas gets interrupted by Billie.

"What does it say? Just tell me"

Maggie holds up her phone to Billie so she can read. There's a picture of us holding hands on a walk with the dogs taken from behind. And the article says:

Billie Eilish's new romance?

Popstar Billie Eilish was spotted in LA last Sunday on a walk holding hands with an unknown girl. The singer has stated in multiple interviews before that she is heterosexual but this picture says the opposite making the fans wonder. Could this unknown girl be Billie's girlfriend? She confirmed breaking up with her ex boyfriend, the lead singer from the band The Neighbourhood, Jesse Rutherford, for about half a year ago. Maybe the singer is just experimenting, maybe this is her new love?

I can see anger forming in Billie's face as she finishes reading the article. When she's done she quickly wipes her eyes with the sleeve of her hoodie before she turns around and walks away.

"Billie, wait!" I try to yell after her as I hear the door to her room slam shut.

"I knew this was going to happened...." Maggie says looking at Patrick.

"Just give her some time" Patrick says and rubs her back.

Maggie stays quite for a while before speaking up again.

"I'm just gonna go and check on her" she says and starts walking but Finneas stops her.

"No, she's an adult. You can at least let her own girlfriend go and talk to her" he says and looks at me.

I nod at him as an answer and he gives me a pat on the shoulder as he thanks me and I walk towards Billie's room. I knock on the door

"Billie, it's just me. I just want to make sure you're okay baby" I say through the door.

"Just leave me alone" the voice from the other side of the door tells me.

"I just want to talk to you"

She doesn't answer.

"Billie please, I just want to help you. Please let me comfort you" I beg her.
