New Town, New Life (Green Day Fanfic)

24 - Even if She Falls

"Guitars? Picks? Drum sticks? You guys have everything? You guys are next I don't want nothing bad to happen. Ugh why ami worrying so much!?"
"Joey calm down. You're not the one who's performing." Billie laughed and I stuck my tongue out.
"I just...it is my brother performing out there, I have the right to worry."
"Aww thanks for caring about me" mike said as ruffled my hair.
"Hey! Watch the hair! It takes time to make my hair perfect" I said pretending to fixtures hair.

We were currently back stage...well sort of. There were two sets of curtains, the one between the crowd and the people on stage, then there was a curtain that separate them from people backstage. He fair was being held at a park and it was a few streets away from the beach too.
There was a lot, and I mean a lot of people here. If I came alone I wall be ran straight home, but I was with my friends so I was okay.

"And that was Anne her magic act! Now up next up is... Green Day and they will be performing a song! Please welcome them."

"Well we gotta go, now see you in the crowd Joey!" Billie said and they went onto stage.

I went into the crowd and saw them tuning and getting ready. Then Billie walked to mic and began talking.

"Uh we're Green Day and we'll be performing a song I wrote, it's called a Welcome to Paradise

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

Pay attention to the cracked streets and the broken homes
Some call it the slums
Some call it nice
I want to take you through a wasteland I like to call my home
Welcome to paradise

A gunshot rings out at the station
Another urchin snaps and left dead on his own
It makes me wonder why I'm still here
For some strange reason it's now
Feeling like my home
And I'm never gonna go

Pay attention to the cracked streets and the broken homes
Some call it slums
Some call it nice
I want to take you through a wasteland I like to call my home
Welcome to paradise

Dear mother,
Can you hear me laughing?
It's been six whole months
Since that I have left your home
It makes me wonder why I'm still here
For some strange reason it's now
Feeling like my home
And I'm never gonna go

Pay attention to the cracked streets and the broken homes
Some call it the slums
Some call it nice
I want to take you through a wasteland I like to call my home
Welcome to paradise
Oh, paradise

Thanks for listening" Billie said as they walked off stage and the crowd cheered.
I ran into them and hug them really tight.

"You guys were great! You guys are sure to win!" I said really happy.
"Thanks Joey, so you wanna go check out the rest of the fair? They aren't telling the winners at the end"
I nodded and we just walked around. We would play a few games and win some prizes.

"I'm starting to get hungry Billie!"
"Stop your whining Tre. If you're so hungry go buy something" mike response back to tre.
"I'm agreeing with Tre, I'm hungry too. Let's go buys some food and go into the picnic area." I suggested.

We all bought something, I bought myself an ice cream just for me. We walked over the grassy area and was that Frank? Yeah, it him! I gestured the guys to follow me. But the seemed confused by the y followed. I saw Frank sitting with a guy, and man was he pale. Is that his boyfriend? Ooooooh, I'm interested now... to be honest, they both look really cute together. I walked up to them and a half eaten sandwich from Frank's hand.

"Hey Frank, is this you're boyfriend?" I said. He blushed really red while the other one seemed to be afraid me. He seriously look terrified of me, did I looked that scary?
"Y-yeah, uh Gerard this is Joey, she uh... friend of mine"
Gerard's seemed relived once he said that, I waved at him and he smiled at me. I noticed that he had small teeth, no wonder that's franks boyfriend, he's so cute!
"How are you friends with Frank? If I can ask..." Gerard asked. I looked at Frank and he nodded at me
"Weeeeeell... some Jocks were being an assholes to Frankie and I kinda stood up for him. Kinda of a bad idea when they're like twice my height."
I leaned in close and whispered,"I think they're just jealous of Frank."
We all giggled and Gerard stood up,"I'm going to get us something to drink. Want something Joey?"
"Uh, a water would be nice thanks." I smiled warmly and he disappeared into the crowd.

"Gerard seems really nice." I said, still stared at the crowd that he disappeared into.
"Yeah he is. I love him, I hope he loves me back. We both were in a wreck but we helped each there out. That's what got us close to each other." Frank said and I looked at him. I noticed he had really nice eyes.

We sat in silence, but it was good silence. I was still smiling but then It faded as soon as saw her.
Was it really... her?
It couldn't be. It probably was someone who looked like her. All the blood on my face had flushed away. I need to leave, she can't find me here. I started to panick, it just can't be her, it is her!

"Hey are you okay? You look like you just saw a ghost or something." Frank put his hand on my shoulders but I quickly jerked it away. I was too panicked for anyone to touch me.

Then she saw me.

Quickly, I need to hide or something. I grabbed Frank and just put him in front of me and made out with him. I'm probably going to get in deep shit for this. When she had finally look away and was out sight, I let go of Frank. That's when I noticed Frank was kissing back.
"Sorry, I needed to hide from someone..." I said nd saw Frank blush.

I looked behind Frank and saw Gerard.we both stared at each other eye wide, Frank saw and he turned around.
"I can explain Gerard. Don't be mad." I said but he was in shock. He started to tear up and ran away.

Now I'm in deep shit.

Frank pushed me away and ran after Gerard. I can't blame him, hope it can be fixed.

The fair was nice and all but it could been better. Turned out some other act won the prize for first place, but the guys got a smaller prize for trying. Hope Frank and Gerard work it out. Please don't let their relationship end because of me.
I jump into bed and just fall into a dreamless sleep.

Still the same time
*Mystery P.O.V.*

Was that really Joanna kissing a guy? Wow. She sure has changed, literally. Appearance and personality.

"Hey! Are your u even listening? Ugh, this why I don't work with your type of people. Anyways I just want to get shots of both you two making out or something? Is that too hard for you?" Man this chick may be hot but she is a total bitch. If I do recall her name was Gabriella? Something like that.
"Seems easy enough. Joanna and I were close so it shouldn't be too hard."
"Good. I'll pay you once I get the shots."

I nodded and left, haven't seen Joanna in a while. I think it time for me to visit her again, I mean she is mine anyways...

A/N - I'm going to put song titles for my chapter titles from now on. So who do you think is the mystery person? And what will happen to Gerard and Frank? Opinions?Woohoo I made a ferard! Lol.

"I'm so happy 'cause today
