Life Changer (Green Day Fanfiction)

Billie Can't Keep His Mouth Shut

The next day, I walked into school and saw Mike. He ran over and put a hand on either side of my face.

"What happened yesterday?" He asked. "I was so worried about you." I looked into his eyes and melted. Is it possible to want to be with both of them?

"Sorry. Something happened and I had to go think." I said.

"What happened?" He said, worried.

"Oh, nothing. My mom called me." I said casually.

"Oh. Well, you coming to practice?" He asked.

"Sure." I said. I walked with him down the hallway. He slipped his hand into mine carefully and I smiled.

See, this was nice. But then again, I've never held hands with Billie Joe.

We walked into the music room and Billie saw us, and looked at me as if he was asking the question I never wanted him to ask.

Which was 'So you picked him?'. Because I haven't picked either yet. So I shook my head at Billie and he looked happier.

"Let's go people!" Tré said. Billie picked up Blue and Mike went to his bass. They started playing and I almost cried when I heard Billie sing for the first time.

"She...

She screams in silence

A sullen riot penetrating through her mind

Waiting for a sign

To smash the silence with the brick of self-control

Are you locked up in a world

That's been planned out for you?

Are you feeling like a social tool without a use?

Scream at me until my ears bleed

I'm taking heed just for you!" He put his guitar down and I saw Mike frown. Did Billie tell him?

"Who's the song about?" He asked. Clearly not.

"You don't need to know that." Billie said.

"Stop being a child and tell me." Mike said.

"No." Billie was mad.

"You're just jealous." Mike muttered.

"Jealous? Why?" Billie asked.

Don't say it Mike. Don't you dare say it.

"You're jealous because Alicia kissed me and not you!" Mike yelled. Billie looked at him with a smug expression.

"That's what you think." He said. Mike's eyes widened.

"What?" He asked.

"I kissed her too. And she kissed back." Billie said.

Billie I'm going to fucking kill you.

Mike looked at me, his expression a mix of angry and hurt. He threw his bass over his shoulder and stormed out, slamming the door. Billie sighed and looked down.

"Does someone want to tell me what the hell's going on?!" Tré asked.

"I'll tell ya tonight." Billie said.

'I'm going to go look for Mike." I said.

"He won't talk to you," Billie told me.

"Don't be stupid. Of course he will." I said.

"Nah. When Mike gets hurt he doesn't talk to anyone." Tré said.

"I told ya. He's a sensitive guy." Billie said.

"And yet you're the one who hurt him, Billie Joe." I snapped, and then I left, hearing Tré say

"Wow, Billie. The full name. Well done, you've successfully pissed off 2 people in the space of one conversation."

I walked down the hallways and searches all over. Everyone was looking at me. I went up to a kind looking girl.

"Excuse me?" I asked.

"Yes?" She looked up. She was pretty and looked kind.

"Do you know Mike Dirnt?" I asked. She nodded. "Have you seen him?" I asked.

"Yes, actually. He ran out of the front door, he was running really fast." She said.

"Thanks. What's your name?" I asked. She smiled.

"Lauren." I smiled.

"Well, thanks Lauren. Do you know Mike well?" I asked.

"I sit behind him in English."

"Okay. Well, I have to go find him!" She giggled and I ran off. Halfway down the hallway I noticed she was running behind me. We ran outside and round the corner, and we saw him straight away.

"Mike." I said. He looked at me, angry, until he saw Lauren.

"Lauren, what are you doing here?" He asked.

"I helped find you." She smiled.

"Oh." Mike replied.

"But I'm not sure if you wanted to be found." She said. Mike gave a small smile and looked down at his bass, playing a small tune. Lauren looked fascinated and sat down in front of him. "That's beautiful." She said. Mike turned bright red.

"Thank you." He mumbled. I grinned at them.

"Lauren, can I have a second to talk to Mike?" I asked. She nodded and smiled, and walked off. I sat down.

"Mike..." I said.

"I know what you're going to say. It's Billie. I'm not stupid. The second you saw him, it was Billie." Mike said, and to my surprise, he smiled.

"And you're okay with that?" I asked.

"I think I knew from the start." He said.

"Oh." I said.

"So now you have to tell Billie." He said.

"Oh my god. What if he doesn't want to be with me?" I asked. Mike laughed.

"I think you're safe. Have you seen his lyrics lately?" He asked. I shook my head. "I stole these this morning," He said, handing me some paper. I read through and my heart was beating.

"He totally loves you." Mike said.

"He's not in love with me." I said, and Mike rose his eyebrows.

"I know when my best friend is in love." He said.

Oh crap.
