Whatshisname (Trillie)

Chapter 3

Tre

I sat there, staring at him for what felt like forever. Did he just come out to me? Does he like me and that's why he told me? What next? "Tre?" Billie waved his hand infront of my face, snapping me out of my thoughts.

"So, uh, what do ya think?" Billie asked and raised his eyebrows....looking really cute..

I put on a bright smile, not because I had to but because I felt happy. "That's great!" I accidentally shouted. "Oh uh I-mean, that's g-good" I said while kicking myself. Why did I do that?!

"Uh Tre? Are you okay?"

"Yeah, I think..." I said while looking down. And about after 20 seconds of silence I finally said it. "Billie.......I think I'm gay". I started tearing up and putting my head down.

Billie stood up and walked to my side of the lunch table. I felt his hand settle on my back and slowly move in circles. After a minute he spoke. "Tre, what's wrong? Why are you crying?" Billie asked in a soft tone.

"Because I've been questioning myself for so long now and I finally just admitted it" I said with tears streaming down my face. "What are my parents gonna think?" I asked looking over at him. "I-Im not sure what they'll think, I mean you won't know until you tell them". "I guess your right".

~Time Skip~

I sat at my quiet dinner table with all eyes on me... I had just told my parents that I'm gay and I could tell by their expressions that they weren't too happy about it...

My father just grabbed his keys and drove off somewhere while my mom stayed and quietly ate her dinner. I was getting ready to get up and put my plate away but then she said something.

"It's okay that you're gay, you know that right?" She said in a soft sweet tone. "You know I'm not gonna love you or treat you any less, okay?"

I looked at her, shocked. After I processed what she said I went around the table and gave her a big hug. "Thank you Mom". After letting her go I put my plate and fork away and ran upstairs to my room and grabbed my phone out of my book bag. I had a call to make.

"Hello?" Billie said as he answered the phone.

"Hey!" I answered

"Oh hey Tre, what's up?"

"I just came out to my parents at dinner!" I nearly shouted through the phone, hoping I didn't just make Billie go deaf.

"Really?! What'd they say?!?!"

"Well my dad just looked mad and walked out of the house and drove off somewhere but my mom told me it was okay and she won't love or treat me any less"

"That's good, I mean not the part about your dad..but at least your mom is good with it!" He exclaimed.

We talked a little more, mostly about school and all that jazz and then hung up for the night.

That night I was too happy to sleep. I tried falling asleep around 10:30pm but couldn't actually get to sleep until 12:45am.

•BEEP•BEEP•BEEP• My alarm sounded at 6:00am

I shut it off and checked my phone and to my surprise I had a text! I hardly ever get texts from anyone so this was kinda weird.

I clicked the message open and it was a good morning text from Billie.
It read: "Good Morning Tre, see you at school!"
Awww that was cute, I said to myself.
I replied back: "Good morning Billie, you too!"

~Time skip a month~

Lets just say, a lot has happened the past few months! Our band that we decided to call "Green Day" was starting to sound really really good!! I'm super glad we got Mike to join in with us, we're gonna rock the concert!! And as for Billie and I, we're practically best friends now. We walked to class together, text every morning, every afternoon, and we say goodnight right before we go to bed. My feelings have gotten stronger for him over the past few weeks but I don't know what to do? Should I tell him?

Billie

We we're sitting in English class when Tre caught me staring at him.... awkward. I couldn't help it! His hair just falls so perfectly over his forehead and he's so cute that it's hard to focus on anything else! We were all reading and so the class was dead silent, well it was until the bell rang. Everyone packed up their books and we all left the room.

Tre and I were walking down the hall quietly until he broke the silence by saying something.

"Hey Billie?" He asked

"Yeah Tre?"

"Why were you staring at me in class today?"

"Oh um I'm not sure? I didn't mean to, I'm sorry if I made you uncomfortable" I told him.

"Oh no you didn't, I was just asking" he replied. We were quiet the rest of the way.

We went to music class and just as everyday, it was absolutely spectacular! Mike KILLED it on the bass today! Tre was absolutely AMAZING on the drums as always, I could tell he had a little more spark in him today though. And I finally got a riff correct that I've been having trouble on for the past few weeks! I mean, could this day get any better?

"Hey Billie" Tre said as he got up from the drum set. "My mom told me yesterday that since today is Friday that I could have a friend over tonight for a sleepover and I wanted to know if you wanted to?"

I was in full shock. Did Tre just ask me if I could sleep at his house?? Hell yeah I want to do it!!! All I have to do is go home and pack and tell my mom and I know she won't care.

"Hell yeah!!" I replied, making a big smile appear across his face.... adorable.

"Great! Would you like me to walk to your house at like 5 and we can walk back to my house together?" He asked innocently. We didn't live that far apart, I knew that because we had traded addresses when we traded phone numbers.

"That would be awesome!" I said with a smile.

((Okay, okay. I know what your thinking. "This story doesn't seem like it's getting anywhere". You're right, I don't exactly have a plan for this but I'm sure it'll get better!! Thanks for reading!))
