Words and Frustration

Mikes pov.
I looked at Bianca.
"Lilith used to be my best friend you know?"
She looked at me confused.
"Wha-what she wa-was?"
"Yeah she used to be straight laced until she got into the wrong crowds at shows and everything just spiraled. It happened with her childhood as well her dad would beat her and her mom was a drunk..."
"Ma-mike, how do you know this"
"Like I said she was an old friend almost a.. never mind."
"Te-tell me please"
"Almost like a lover, I think you're my kid Bianca."
She looked me dead in the eyes like I tore her whole world apart.
"YOU'RE NOT OR YOU WOULD'VE FUCKING BEEN THERE AND LOOKED FOR ME YOU'RE LYING!!"
She was yelling this which caused Billie and everyone else to run down the stairs. She stood shaking as Billie held her back she was going to hit me... I probably deserved it.
"DON'T YOU EVER TRY TO HIT MIKE OR ANYONE IN THIS HOUSE UNLESS YOU WANNA GO BACK TO THE DAN FOSTER CARE."
"I DON'T GIVE A FUCK BILLIE! HE WASN'T THERE FOR ME HE FUCKING ABANDONED ME HE DIDN'T EVEN he didn't look for me, I haaa-te you"
I looked at her angerly. We were all on edge.
"IT SHOULD BE YOUR MOM YOU SHOULD BE MAD AT. SHE'S THE ONE WHO WOULDN'T LET ME SEE YOU SHE'S THE ONE WHO STARVED YOU AND BEAT YOU. SHE DIDN'T WANT ME TO MAKE YOU HAPPY DON'T YOU GET IT???! I ALWAYS FUCKING CARED.. SHE WOULDN'T MAKE A DAMN EFFORT.!"
"you know Mike that's right it's all her fault she just fell into your dick one night and you never came back. Ya know I'm more mad now she didn't kill me when she had the chance when she stuck that gun to my head or took my meals away or anything else. You didn't save me from the pain she caused-" she pulled up her sleeves and shirt.
"You see these scars and my bones you let it happen. You let her burn me kick me everything. Maybe Billie should send me back cause Ya know something 'Dad' I never had a family and I.."
She suddenly passed out in Bullies arms and began screaming.
"FAMILY? MOM YOU NEVER GAVE ME A FAMILY OR SOMETHING TO FUCKING CARE ABOUT? Stop stop stop hitting me I ha-ha you."
She was crying and jolted upward.
"I'm done." She said and headed downstairs to Billie music room.
"Mike let her chill off for a bit it's okay. I uh just got so mad I'm sorry."
We made up and I sat down over thinking. Suddenly she came back up but all the way to her room and slammed her guitar against me said nothing and headed to Billie and Adie.
"Sorry guys about earlier I love you guys." And she went upstairs and slammed her door.
Bianca pov.
I was so mad at Mike! I took my wad of money and taped it under my bed. I grabbed my ciggs and lighter and headed downstairs to the backyard. I took out a cigarette and lit it. I tucked the pack in my bra so no one would see it. I sat on the bench and took a picture with my ipod so you could see it in my hand it was cool. I put the cigarette out, and quickly wanted another and refused. I went inside.
"Adie?" I said seeing her in the kitchen.
"Yes?"
"Can Joey take me to the store?"
"Do you have money?"
"Yeaaa-yes."
"Where did you get it?"
"My original mother."
"Okay but be back soon, dinner will be ready in an hour."
She kissed my forehead smiling and I went up to Joey asking him. He agreed and we left silently.
"What's with you and Mike?"
"Long story but he's most likely my dad and I told him my feelings. Look I really am sorry I hurt your family. I apologized but it's all awkward."
"Don't worry dinner will be all of us and we can talk it over."
I went in the store bought what I needed and came out with it hidden Joey gave me a funny look and we left.
When we got back Adie had just finished dinner and Mike was staying again! I threw my purchase in my room and came back down. I saw the only open seat was next to Mike and I sat quietly.
"Again everyone I'm really sorry about earlier I really appreciate all you guys do and thank you and I'm sorry if you wanna kick me out or anything I'm just sorry."
They all starred and Billie spoke up.
"It's okay I'm not gonna send you back okay? You're no burden I just need to be patient we both need to be. Especially with someone else Bianca."
We knuckled and I just looked at my food as I ate slowly again afraid to spit it out or get hit.
"Spa-ghet-ti" I read the white board saying tonight's meal. Mike gave me a funny look.
"I'm so glad you got the word! I'm proud" Adie smiled and Mike nuged it away. I felt bad but what was he gonna do now..
"Bianca let's go for a ride I wanna do something for you" I shook my head. I ate about half of my dinner and layed on the couch until Mike was ready.
"Let's go kid" I got up and we headed outside. We drove for a while until we stopped.
"Mike I can't read well at all."
"Ha I knew if get you to speak well, we're in Berkley and this is 924 Gilman we came here later we were told we were sell outs for signing to a record label but all the lost and hurt kids came here ya know. I didn't know what to do with my life and this gave me hope. I have another place to show ya." We drove up the street to a dark building.
"This is the original cafe I had owned the key works no worries. I go to the bathroom here and I see the writings about our greatness. I'm not mad I'm greatful. I'm greatful everyday for what I have and what I've done I may have made stupid decisions but I know you weren't one, you know why? It's because I got to know someone special I may not know your life but I know you're special because you're my daughter. I love you, you are a fighter." I hugged him tight and started crying.
"I would go anywhere and look at the grown men and think maybe that's my father.. I always wanted one and a family. I'm sorry I'm sorry I yelled and got mad. I was hurt a lot. You know what else? I wanna get to know you too. With that we left and headed back to Oakland to get some rest but I didn't rest I had a surpise.
