"Holy Fuck" I whispered to myself, but not quietly enough as my Chemistry teacher turned to glare at me.

"Sorry Mrs" I said with guilt, but Pen couldn't stop giggling.

I elbowed her under the table, and she punched me back.

"Ow you dumb bitch, guess you're not coming then." I said to her.

"Coming where?" She responded.

"To Billie, she just announced her Australian Tour, I will take Lucy then." I told her.

"Oh, hell no bro, we are going, and we are starting the biggest mosh she will ever witness" She whispered to me earning another glare from our teacher.

"Bet" I said back.

Chemistry went quick and soon enough I was home. To do or not to do my homework and revision. Not. Now don't get me wrong, schools' fun I really enjoy, mostly for the social and sport aspect, but my god is senior hard. Year 12 has been a royal pain in my ass. Its March a week after 'When We All Fall Asleep Where Do We Go?' came out and that's all I have been blasting. Straight through or shuffle, I couldn't care less.

"Hey... Leave a message,

Hey... Call me back when you get this

Or when you've got a minute- "Myphone started blaring.

I answered without checking the ID.

"Harrington Keys! We are going to Billie, don't fight me on it, she's performing in Brisbane in May." Lucy screeched into the phone.

"Okay one luce, I know, obviously, I already signed up for pre-sale, and two... pipe down you just caused my right ear to bleed!" I yelled.

"Oh few, good cause I didn't want to be the one to buy them in case we missed out, you and Penelope would come for me" she said back laughing.

"Ahahahaha dude, you're not wrong luce, anyways I should start on my homework, just transfer me the money and tell Pen to, too. Bye love you" I said.

"See ya Harri, love you bye!" She yelled into the phone before hanging up while laughing.

Honestly that girl never stops yelling, but I love her and Pen, I can't not. We've been friends since Primary School ever since we joined the same basketball team. From there we clicked from our love of sport, music and everything in between. I looked at the clock to see it was only 4:50.

I did just over two hours of work and was starved. "Dad! When's dinner" I yelled.

No response, like always but I could smell the food. Padding out of my room and to the kitchen Dad turned to me.

"Oh, my sweet child, did you say something?" He asked sarcastically with a big smile.

"Hardy har har father, I know you heard me." I said back to him rolling my eyes.

"Well while you're here, might as well set the table and call your brother to see when he is coming home from training" he told me, turning back around to finish cooking.

"Yeah, ok since I'm here" I muttered, grabbing the utensils.

"What smells good?" Mum said entering the kitchen and kissing my cheek.

"Dads attempt at curry, why couldn't you cook? You're the full Asian in the family" I whined.

"Harri!" Both my parents said laughing.

Mum's from the New Zealand but always gets asked where in south-east Asia she is from and it has become a running joke in the family, but the women can cook any cuisine under the sun. Chinese, Thai, Italian and Christmas lunch my favourite meal of the year. Dad's Australian so I'm half, luckily my brother and I were blessed with tan Mum's skin. Came out of the womb as white as a ghost, but the minute we went in the sun we tanned fast. Living near the beach helped with that too.

I picked up my phone to call Jock my brother. He graduated last year and was picked up by selectors to train with first division rugby team at University, which is big as a first year.

On the third ring he picked up.

"Yes, Harrington my darling sister" he answered.

"When are you home ass wipe?  Dad's almost finished his attempt at curry for dinner" I told him, while giggling at the glare Dad gave me.

"Umm, I only just left training, we had to do an extra hour of cardio for preseason, so maybe 20 minutes. Can you make me a bowl and save it in the microwave for me please?" he asked.

I sighed, "fine, only for you this one time. Don't ask again or I will sister slap you across the Pacific to New Zealand. Bye Jock drive safe" I told him.

He chuckled into the phone. "Alright Harri, thank you" and with that I hung up.

"Jock's training went longer than expected so I will put his dinner in the microwave" I told my parents, as I entered the kitchen again.

"Oh ok, then let's dig in" Dad said as he filled the four bowls with rice and curry.

Dinner was actually good, Dad's cooking in general is good, but that usually revolves steak, mash potatoes and veges. Mum usually handle the exotic meals.

"I'm impressed Dad, this is almost as good as Mum's" I told him laughing.

"See I can do more than mash and steak, no ever lets me though" He said back chuckling.

We sat and talked about school and how I was tracking. After the good news of me topping chemistry and a few of my other subjects I decided to bring up Billie's concert.

"Ahem" I cleared my throat.

"Uh oh, here we go what now" Mum said looking at dad with a knowing look.

"Hey! Here me out first at least" I whined. They both just laughed.

"So in May, there's a concert in the city, please may I go with Luce and Pen" I begged.

"And who is performing?" Dad asked.

"Billie Eilish" I responded.

"Oh, the one you have a crush on?" Dad asked again.

"Yeah the one and only" I told him.

"Billie who?" Mum asked looking confused.

"Eilish, the one who's music you said was creepy and she whispers to much" I said.

"Ahhhh, ok" she said back.

"If you can pay for your ticket, then I don't see why not" Dad said, and Mum nodded her head.

"YES! See this right here is why I love you guys most of the time" I yelled and hugged them, laughing.

"It's a good thing we tolerate you then Munch" Dad said using my nickname. Munch is short for munchkin, a dad joke he started using when I little, but jokes on him cause I'm a little taller than the fool. Which is odd because both our parents are quite short, but Jock and I ended up tall, me at 5'8" and Jock is 6'3".

After dinner, I resorted to the warmth of my bed and got comfy. Picking up my phone I scrolled through Instagram to see Billies newest post. I sent it to Lucy and Pen.

@Harrikeys; "We gon see my baby soon"I sent to them.

@Lucy.smith "Oath we are, im so keen bro" She responded.

I kept scrolling and looked at my explore. No surprise that it was filled with shoes and Billie posts. There isn't a night where I don't get sucked into an Instagram deep dive of videos of Billie performing or being a goof. Especially her and Finneas and when she performs 'Bitches Broken Hearts' that song and performance hits so many places.

I put my phone on charge and rolled over, letting sleep take over.
