True//Billie Eilish//

Billie was passed out, cuddled up against me. Maggie had come in earlier to tell me about dinner but I told her I was letting Billie sleep.

Billies schedule was always full so when she got time to relax I let her have full advantage of that. It was hard having a friend that was famous but truthfully I wouldn't change Billie for anyone else, famous or not.

"She loves you, you know" I hear from the doorway and I turn my head. Claudia stands against the doorframe with her hands in her pockets. "I sure hope so, man she means so much to me" I say with a dreamy tone.

"You're a good person Liz I just hope you open your eyes soon" she says and walks away.

Open my eyes soon, what does that mean. "What time is it" I hear from beside me and I look down at Billie. "6:57" I say and tuck some of her hair behind her ear. "Sleep good" I ask to which she hums in response.

I shift in bed and she groans and holds me in place. "Stay" she says and I smile. "I want to but I have school tomorrow and I need to finish that report" I say and she pouts. "Please Liz just stay until I fall asleep again, you know I can't sleep alone" she says and I smile.

"Alright softie" I respond and she rolls her eyes. "I am not a softie" she states defensively and I raise an eyebrow. "Whatever makes you fall asleep at night Billie" I say and place a kiss to her forehead.

"Are you free after school" she asks and I raise an eyebrow. "I thought you were going to sleep" I question. "Well if I sleep you'll have to go home" she says matter-of-factly.

"Well if you dont sleep I'll still have to head home" I say mockingly to which she violently rolls her eyes. "You should be lucky I love you because your attitude is fucking cruel" Billie states and snuggles closer to me. "Alright im gonna get some sleep, hopefully I'll see you tomorrow" she mumbles and closes her eyes.

Billie was passed out like that and so I spent the next ten minutes trying to maneuver my way out from her monkey grip. I throw my clothes back on and slip my vans on before closing the door and heading downstairs where the O'Connells watch some movie.

"Leaving already" Patrick asks me and pauses the movie. "Yea I have a report to finish and school tomorrow" I say as I run a hand through my brown hair. Finneas is first to pull me in a goodbye hug and I smile. He was like the brother I never had with how caring and loving he was to me.

Claudia wraps her arms around me to which I hug her tighter. We were "roadies" together is what she called it. We were either backstage with the singers or in front jamming out. "I'll pick you up Friday still so we can head out to coachella" she tells me and I smile.

"I'm being serious though, Billie loves you more than you know so I think its time you open your eyes" she says and I nod totally not understanding what she means.

Maggie kisses the top of my head and Patrick gives me a side hug before I call it quiets and head to my apartment.

I had moved out on my own when I was sixteen because I couldn't deal with my parents anymore. Either marking me to hell because I was bisexual or trying to fix me. A good friend of mine, Riley happened to be moving out as well and so we moved to LA and got an apartment.

Now why would two broke teen girls move from Kanas to California you might ask and well its Riley happened to have a girlfriend out here. She met her on a trip and got together doing long distance so when she had the chance to move she did.

I enter the house and throw my keys onto the table. "Liz you're back" Riley's voice can be heard echoing throughout her room.

"Yea I'm home" I say back and walk to her room. Are styles were really fucking different and that meant so were are rooms. Riley's room had pictures of one direction and fucking some singer she was obsessed with along with deep purple bedsheets and an overall girly atmosphere.

Now my room had band posters and photos of skateboarders. I had a skateboard rack in the corner of my room and my black and gray sheets. Billie loved my room because it was dark like hers in a way.

"So did you guys finally do it" Riley asks as she folds up the rest of her clothes. "Im sorry can you elaborate me on what the fuck you're talking about" I question and she scoffs. "Have you and Billie fucked yet" she asks and I choke on my own spit. Riley was the only person that was allowed to know about one my sexuality and two who the fuck I was dating. We also let her girlfriend in on it since she stays the night so she was bound to run into Billie.

"I'm sorry to burst your bubble but we are just fucking friends" I say and she chuckles. "Yea yea alright".

A buzz goes off and I lift my phone from my pocket. "Is it your girlfriend" Riley teases to which I shoot her a challenging glare. "She's not my girlfriend" I respond and Riley mumbles something.

Billie- I fucking miss you already.

Billie- can you just drop out and come stay with me.

Billie- alright well will you at least face time me while you work?

Me- fuck you're so needy mamas.

Me- i can't exactly drop out if I wanna get into college.

Me- call you soon.

"Anyways if I'm not up by six wake me up" I say and point a finger at her before walking to my room and locking the door. I set my phone up on a pile of books as I change into comfy clothes and then I call Billie.

The phone rings twice before her cute face appears on the screen. "Hey asshole" I say as I type away at my report and write some stuff down on a paper.

"Wow great to know you miss me too" she replies and I stick my tongue out. "Shouldn't you be sleeping, if I'm not mistake I believe someone has more rehearsal tomorrow" I lecture to which she sighs and whines, "You know I can't sleep alone and shouldn't you be sleeping."

"See I would be sleeping if someone would have let me go earlier so I could finish this dumb report" I say and scribble down some shit on my paper. "Fuck" I groan and erase the same part of the paper for the fifth time.

This shit was killing me but I couldn't fail if I wanted to keep all A's. "Princess dont get stressed just take a deep breath" Billie says through the phone and I follow her advice.

Billie went ranting on the phone about her upcoming tour and busy schedule but I tuned her out so I could finish my work. I finally finished at three in the morning and grabbed my phone that was close to dying to see Billie fast asleep on face time.

"I love you mamas, sweet dreams and I'll talk to you tomorrow" I say and plug my phone in, leaving it on face time.
