《2.15.15 - 5.15.17》 When 16 year old Gloria Kate's mom decides that she's in love with punk rocker Billie Joe Armstrong 6 years after Gloria's biological dad dies, she is destined to make sure Billie leaves. For good. But when Gloria's house gets "infiltrated by the spawns of Satan himself", the only one she can turn to is her best friend and partner in crime, Christian. After a couple months of everything being okay, Gloria finds some unexpected news that changes her outlook on everyone in her family. Including herself. While Gloria's battling the riots at home and at her own school, she's still trying to maintain her relationship with Christian without letting anyone see she's on the verge of breaking. Will she ever make it through? After all, this is her 21st Century Breakdown. .......... Disclaimer: I don't own Green Day or any of their songs (although it'd be pretty cool if I did). And whatever you guys may think, I don't hate Billie Joe Armstrong or anyone from Green Day. They saved me so the least I can do is make a fanfiction about them.

Billie has been with Olivia for a while now, but covering up the bruises is getting more and more difficult, and people are starting to notice. Tré is there for him, like he always is, but how will Olivia react to that? Trillie

Whatever you think this story will be, it isn't.

1994; she (iris carlile, 18) met him at woodstock, after a breakup between her and her boyfriend. except he wasn't in the crowd, he was on stage.

My name is Diana. I am what everyone calls a fuck up. I have no talents except screwing everything up. I live with my mother. I never met my father because he left my mother before I was born. I'm an only child and it sucks. My mother is abusive. She beats me all the time whether drunk, high or sober. I am ... Well I guess you can say I'm jaded.

Insomniac : someone who has difficulty falling asleep

Woodstock, 1994. 
Collin Grey doesn't belong in the fluorescent lit future that haunts her. A safe, quiet life that fits like someone else's jacket. The cookie cutter American dream. She doesn't quite belong in the chaos, either. So when her best friend drags her to a muddy music festival halfway across the country, she goes, not to rebel, just to breathe. She's not looking to be found. Especially not by Billie Joe Armstrong. He's the kind of alive that makes her nervous grinning through the wreckage, loud without apology. The lead singer of a band she barely listens to, the kind of person who sees right through people like her: the quiet ones. The scared ones. The ones who want more but don't know how to ask. When a rainstorm turns the festival into a swamp of music and chaos, Collin is forced to face everything she's been avoiding, herself included. But Billie? He's not just a distraction. He might be the reckoning. For all his noise, listens in a way no one else ever has. He doesn't try to fix her. He just sees her. It's not a love story. Not yet. But it's the start of something. Something messy & loud.
