Ch.31 Bad Reputation

So Scott,Anna,and little Billie landed back in Milwaukee at around 8:00 and drove back home and during the drive Anna was worrying about Billie the whole time and Scott asked
"Are you okay,you've been super quiet"
"I'm just worried about Billie and I miss him"
"Oh, well its eight here so its only like six there so you can Facetime him"
"Yeah I'm gonna do that"so they got home and Anna set her stuff down,and immediately grabbed her phone and went in room at her dad's and Facetimed Billie and it rang and finally someone picked up,it was Adrienne
"Hi Adrienne"
"Hi Anna"
"Um is Billie there" and Adrienne sighed
"When we came home he went straight up in your room and wont come out"
"Oh no,well just tell him I'm on the phone"
"Okay" so Adrienne walked up to Anna's room and spoke
"Billie,Anna's on the phone" and Anna heard shuffling in the backround,then Billie's face appeared,his face was red and his eyes were red and puffy
"Hi" he said in a small voice
"Please tell me you haven't been crying"and he just went silent
"Sorry"
"No its okay I just don't want you to be sad so how about you grab your bear and we can talk all night if you want"and that resulted in a small smile from Billie,so he did what Anna said then she spoke
"Adrienne told me that you won't come out of my room,but you have to okay"
"Okay"and Anna smiled seeing if that would make Billie smile and it worked
"So when do you guys plan on coming"
"On the 7th"
"Cool,when you guys come we can get as much ice cream we want because I live like 20ft from an ice cream shop and caffine,I live like two blocks from Starbucks and go to the skatepark and go to this awesome little hidden away park I know of and take little Billie for walks,how does that sound"she said smiling
"I would love that" he said smiling
"You have to promise me something"
"Hmh"
"Whenever you miss me hug your bear or get ice cream or both okay"
"I can do that"he said smiling,at least he was smiling and not crying
"Good"and she was just happy she cheered him up
"And you can call me everyday if you want just so you're not sad,because I miss you too and I have little Billie by my side"and Billie just smiled and nodded
"Believe me I will do the same,its weird being back in Wisconsin though"
"Yeah its weird you not being here"
"Hello I'm right here" and Billie just smiled
"Y'know what I mean"
"Can you do something for me"
"Sure"
"Go by Adrienne so I can see her too I miss her" and that was kinda Anna's way of getting him to come out of her room,she is smart after all
"Okay" so Billie walked back downstairs and found Adrienne and she got into the frame
"Hi Anna'
"Hi Adrienne,I'm excited for you guys to come up to Wisconsin,we're gonna have a crap ton of fun"
"Yeah,Billie already bought the tickets"
"Really thats sweet"and Billie just blushed a bit and Adrienne just laughed
"Yeah I get to control your caffine and ice cream high butts for a week"
"You love us"
"Yeah,well I'm gonna let you guys talk,bye Anna,love you"
"Love you too Adrienne,bye" so now it was just Billie,and he went down into the studio and sat down and spoke
"Y'know what worried me the most about you leaving"
"No"
"You not sleeping"
"Oh thats taken care of,Adrienne recorded you singing to me so I could listen to it here,she just didn't tell you"
"Oh yeah I forgot well thats good"
"And you have to promise me that you get sleep okay"
"Okay"and to make Billie smile she held up her wristband hand and he got it and smiled and held up his,Anna also got an idea to cheer him up some more,so she got up and went to her stereo and put her Ramones Cd on and turned up the volume so he could hear and Billie just smiled and she could tell he was happy now and they talked for hours about what they would do,and by now it was like midnight and then Billie looked at the time
"Oh crap its ten here so its like midnight there,you should get some sleep"
"Okay,night Billie,love you,just do what I told you okay"
"Okay night Anna,love you too"so they hung up and Anna passed out with little Billie curled up next to her,and her dad just came back from explaining to the landlords that little Billie would leave tomorrow,because Scott's apartment doesn't allow dogs,but they allowed it for a day and he saw her passed out with the phone still in her hand and he just laughed and headed to bed himself and Billie listened to what Anna said and he got some sleep and kept his bear right next to him and Adrienne took a picture and sent it to Anna and everything was back to normal,for the most part.
