Running wild and always running free
Doing things that I have never seen
Eerie colors and all I see are sounds
Now I know that you're the
Best thing in town

Billie Joe showing up to the paint shop had now become a regular thing. He would show up and sit around for some time before Sid would close the shop early and go exploring with Billie. Billie had kept his word and had began showing Sid around the town.
"I have a plan for today" Billie mentioned as he spun around on a chair behind the paint stained countertop.
"hmm" Sid looked up, startled by his voice; she had been doodling in her sketchbook. Her brain quickly caught up to what he was saying. Sid looked over at him and rested her head on her arm. "And what is it?"
"Surprise" And there it was, Billies crooked smile.
Sid couldn't help but grin back at him, excitement bubbling in her chest. Sid loves surprises, she find's excitement in jumping into the unknown. She looked up at the clock in anticipation, impatient to go wherever Billie had planned. 5 more minutes, thanks to the modified time Sids mom had granted her.
"Five minutes isn't too much, right?" Sid questioned with a persuasive expression. Her foot was already tapping as she itched to go to this mysterious place.
Billie let out a laugh as he watched Sid impatiently move around, itching to go. This was the exact reaction he was hoping for. He had noticed some things about Sid now that they we're hanging out often. He enjoyed watching Sids excitement, how much she moved and never tried to hide or downplay her happiness. She was always genuine and could never keep still, unless she did something with extreme concentration. Billie never had a dull moment when he was around Sid; she was interesting and spontaneous enough to always keep him on his toes.
"I'm sure five minutes counts as nothing" Billie encouraged Sid, a nonchalant smile on his face.
"Okay, all blame goes on ya then" Sid smiled as she locked up the register. She stuffed her supplies pack into her backpack and strapped it onto her back. "Take me then, let's go"
Billie laughed at her eagerness as he got up from the spiny chair and stretched his back. "Well, we gotta get Mike and Tre first" Billie informed Sid as he followed her out of the paint shop.
"Ya gotta be kiddin' me, how far do they live anyway" Sid complained, rubbing her hand down her face. She didn't dislike the boys, quite the opposite, but she wanted to know what Billie had planned so so bad.
"Don't worry, I brought my car this time" Billie chuckled as he watched Sid desperately lock up the paint shop.
"Oh thank god! Let's go! Let's go!" Sid grabbed a laughing Billies arm and dragged him over to his car. She seemed ready to jump right out of her shoes. Sid was generally unable to stay still, but now she was jumping off the walls.

Sid looked down at the waterhole in fascination. She looked up at the guys and was about to ask a question. She was only able to start opening her mouth when Tre jumped right into the water. "oh my god! wait for me!", Sid smiled as she began to take her shoes and socks off.
