New Town, New Life (Green Day Fanfic)

23 - Give em Hell, kid

I was walking with mike to school and we already talk about us being related. I mean if we were related, then why don't we look a like? But then again there are different types of twins.

I noticed a pink paper was sticking out of my bag and it was starting to bother me. I took it out and saw in big bold letters on it said 'TOWN FAIR'
I forgot about it since I had been informed on who is my brother. I stopped walking and read the paper had written on it. It said there was going to be a competition and the winner was going to receive a prize.
Mike noticed I stopped walking and came over to see what I was looking at.

"Hey, maybe you guys can preform, It'll give you more publicity." I said to Mike.
"Yeah, seems like a good idea but I need to discuss it with Billie and Tre."

•----•----•----•----•

The school day had painfully slowly passed on and it was time to leave. A lot had happens this morning, a lot of rumors about a kid being gay. Don't get me wrong, being gay is awesome, and being friends with them is even better. Although school isn't a place where it shouldn't be told at. I mean it sucks to to keep in too, because I'm not exactly as 'straight as a ruler either'.

"Hey have you heard there's a gay couple? Ewwww, that's so gross" I heard one of the girls on their way out.
I wanted to just get into their face and asks what so bad about being gay?

"Joey! Are you even listening?" I see mike trying to get my attention again.
"Huh,what...sorry I wasn't listening"
"Rude!" Tre just interrupted," you're welcome Mike"
"Anyways, your idea for the town fair is great! Also, who'd of thought you were related to mike. That's cool." Billie told me as we walked down the hall to head outside.
"Yeah. I know it was a shock to me, um hey, I forgot something in my locker. I'll be right back, just wait for me near the main entrance."

I made my way to my locker, and got my private notebook. Maybe I shouldn't bring it to school, but I do just in case I get inspire with some lyrics or I just want to write something. I closed my locker but saw some short kid get shoved up against the lockers by some jocks.

"A faggot like you shouldn't be here, Iero." One of the jocks said and punched him in the somache and started kicking.

"P-please stop! Stop!" He screamed, but continued to punch until he was on the floor coughing out blood.

Wait did they say faggot? Is he the gay guy? I gotta help him! I dropped my bag on the floor and ran to them, I pushed them away from the the short kid. I jumped in front his body so they could stop. Bad idea. One of them punched me the face and started to beat on me.

Thats when they stopped and laughed as they walked away. At least they stopped now.

"Hey are you okay?" I asked
"Aren't you gonna insult me too? Run away in disgust!?"
"Ouch harsh. Naw, I'm cool with gays. I'm not exactly straight either. I'm Joey, well that my nickname any way." I reached out my hand, expecting him to shake it.
"Your forehead is bleeding!" He screamed and pointed. Didn't he know that pointing is rude?
I reach up and sure enough it was bleeding. I thought it had healed by now, guess not.

I ran into the guys bathroom- I could have gone to the girls bathroom but it was on the other side of school- and grabs some paper towels, putting pressure against the cut. I saw In the mirror that the short guy was watching me.

"This is the guys bathroom you know." He said, no shit Sherlock.
"Yeah, I noticed" I said.
"I'm Frank by the way, did they cause your forehead to bleed? And why did you try to stop them?" He seemed so confused that it was cute.
"Well, Frank, no they didn't. It was because of another fight, and I did it because no one should be beat up because of their sexuality" I said as I threw away the paper towel.
"Thanks." He smiled at me, and it was really cute too.
"Oh! I um, I don't want to be rude or anything but I have to go, my friends are waiting for me outside...um do you wanna come?"
"No thanks, I plan on going to my friends house."
"Okay, well bye then." I said as I ran out, waving good bye and went to grab my back back off the ground and made my way outside.

"What took you so long!? Who, what happened to your forehead?" Billie said.
"I got lovestruck but instead of falling in love, I fell on my face. Come on let's go! I wanna hear you guys play!" I pulled their arms as I ran towards my house.
"Whoa, what's gotten into you?" Mike said as we all ran.

I slowed down as we reached my apartment. Well it's actually more like a house to be honest. I got the keys and unlocked the door. I let myself fall into the sofa, embracing the cushions.

"Ahh, home sweet home. So..." I said down as I sat up right," we have to discuss some important stuff. So are are guys going to preform?"
They all looked at each other and nodded.

"Okay, the fair is in two days, so you guys should pick a song you guys know by heart, it could a cover, but you guys do a song of yours. They're really awesome! Just like Joey, Joey is awesome!." We all laughed at the last part.

"Well, we could do Welcome to Paradise... we've become good at it and I like how it is..." Billie said unsure.

I beamed up and nodded my head really excited. We all got up went into the basement. They fixed their instrument while I sat down in the chair.

"Well welcome to paradise it is...

Dear mother,
Can you hear me whining?
It's been three whole weeks
Since that I have left your home
This sudden fear has left me trembling
Cause now it seems that I am out here on my own
And I'm feeling so alone..."
