Tragedy(Billie Joe Armstrong) (#Wattys2018)

Chapter 36: Coffee Hurricane

Bandit's POV

I woke up to the pale sunlight stabbing my eyes. That didn't help the incessant pounding in my head. "Mmm," I let out a groan as I tried to pull the blanket over my face.

"Blanket hog," Billie said and pulled the blanket towards him.

"No..." I whined and pulled it back.

"Stop..." he mocked my tone and tugged at it.

"You," I returned. We were both pulling on the blanket now.

"We're right next to each why are we fighting for a large blanket?" He asked.

"Because the light is blinding," I ripped it from his hands.

"Oh my god," he sighed, "give me at least some of the blanket."

"Here," I let some of it go.

"But seriously why are you cocooning yourself in the whole thing? I'm literally right next to you. It's not like I'm across the room!" He complained.

"Ask my sub conscious that," I unraveled my self from the blanket and let it spread over the rest of the bed.

"You're very difficult this morning," he wrapped his arm around me.

"No one is in a good mood when they're tired," I told him.

"You've got a point," he yawned.

"Back to bed?" I asked.

"Yes please," he said and I found myself easily falling back asleep.

I woke up with my eyes feeling really heavy. Why am I so tired? I felt fingers lightly stroking my hair and a rising motion underneath my head. I opened my eyes and remembered I was with Billie.

"Good afternoon," he said.

"What time is it?" I asked.

"I don't know," he laughed. I tightened my grip on him and buried my face in his chest. "Why are you so tired?"

"I don't know," I exhaled. "I don't wanna go to school tomorrow."

"I don't either, that's why I'm not going," he said.

"You should though, Mike and I get bored without you and Tré," I told him.

"Well if I go what will Tré do without me?" He argued.

"Tré sleeps until we get out of school," I pointed out.

"Eh," he shrugged.

"Aw they're so cute!" I heard Gerard.

"Wakey wakey eggs and bakey," Mike said.

"Food?!" I lifted my head.

"We can go get food if you two get up," Mike said.

"That was a mean joke," I laid my head back down. "If you say 'eggs and bakey' I'm expecting eggs in bacon waiting for me!"

"Get up Bandita!" Tré said.

"Ugh you people suck," I rolled over and got up.

"You ruined my moment guys," Billie sat up.

"What moment? I was trying to go back to sleep," I said and everyone had a laugh.

"Your pile is there," Billie pointed to a pile of clothes on top of the dresser.

"Thank you," I grabbed jeans and sweatshirt from Seaside Jersey. "I'll be back," I walked out and into the bathroom. I changed my clothes and threw my messy hair back into a braid. I wiped off the smeared eyeliner and splashed some water on my face. Well at least I have a tooth brush here. I brushed my teeth and left the bathroom. "Ready?" I asked.
