Blood, Sex and Booze

[3 MONTHS LATER - BILLIE'S POV]

It was the usual gang at my and Alyssa’s house tonight. She and I were on the couch, Marty and Tre were about to fall asleep on the floor, and then there was Mike. He hadn’t had a girlfriend in forever until now. The new ‘lucky lady’, as he put it, was a girl named Randi. She was apparently our age, which was 27, and she was bleach blonde with black hair underneath, plus she was tall and skinny just like Mike. I hoped that this relationship with this so called ‘Randi’ would last for him. I was nervous about this, and I didn’t know why. Mike got a call from her and he stood up, saying that he was going to pick her up and that he would be right back. We all said bye to him and he walked out. After the door shut behind him, there was a small awkward silence between the four of us.

“I wonder what she’s like.” I asked. Alyssa turned around to glare at me, “no! Not like that!” I said putting my hands in the air. She smiled at me and turned back around.

“I knew a Randi once.” She said quietly, “but I havn’t seen her in years.”

We all felt awkward, not wanting to say anything. A few minutes went by and Alyssa decided to break the silence.

“Let’s watch a movie!” She yelled as she got off my lap. She began to go through our movie drawer and rummaged through it. I heard her squeal and she got up and started the movie. She jumped back on the couch and I pulled her close again. The movie started and I saw that she had put in ‘Aladdin’.

“Alyssa!” Me, Tre and Marty all yelled and rolled our eyes. She sunk down and tried to hide her face. Mike came in with Randi by his side.

“Why did Alyssa do this time?” Mike asked as he closed the door behind him. She went to glare at him but saw Randi. Her jaw dropped and she got up.

[ALYSSA’S POV]

“Randi!” I yelled attacking her into a hug, which I knew she hated.

“No!” She yelled, pushing me away. I laughed and let her go.

I sat back down with Billie while her and Mike sat on the floor.

“Hey Randij.” Marty said and I smiled.

Randi turned to her, “hey Martenaj.” The three of us began laughing.

“Just like the old times.” Marty said still laughing.

We all were quiet and Randi quickly turned her head to face the TV. She yelled that she loved that movie, then the three guys got up and left to go into the kitchen and left us three girls in the living room to watch the movie. We all ended up getting popcorn and loads of pop as we sang along to all the songs and we ended up getting so hyper, that we passed out on the floor during the credits.

[RANDI’S POV]

“Randi! Hey! It’s time to go home. Wake up.” I heard Mike say, as he slapped me on the face. I grabbed his hand and bit his fingers.

“Owie!” He squealed and jumped back. We all laughed at him and I sat up to sit on the couch normally.

“I don’t want to go home yet.” I pouted, making the best ‘puppy-dog’ face that I could. Mike groaned and rolled his head, then stood up straight.

“Alright. I guess we could stay here.” He told me. I cheered, and ended up waking Alyssa and Marty. Which was surprising because they’re both deep sleepers.

“I’m staying over Alyssa.” I said as I got up and went into the bathroom.

I saw her look around to see who was surrounding her. She smiled and laid back down on the couch.

I looked at my face and my whole feature was a mess. My eyeliner was smeared so much to the point where I looked like a raccoon. The blonde part of my hair was all bunched together and was sticking out in different directions. I looked for a brush that looked like something Alyssa would use, I wouldn’t want to end up using Billie’s, that’s disgusting.
I walked back out there and saw Mike laying on the love seat and Alyssa and Billie laying on the couch. I looked at her and made a ‘tsk, tsk’ move with my fingers. She smiled and rolled her eyes.

“You’re a little bit too late for that, Rans.” She said.

I stopped in my tracks and I turned around to she her and Billie playing tounge hockey.

“Hey, hey, hey! None of that while I’m here!” I yelled as I shielded my eyes.

“Get used to it, they do it all the time. I’m one of the main witnesses.” Mike mumbled.

I sat down next to him, still trying to shield my eyes from them.

“What do you mean?” I asked leaning my head on his shoulder.

“Well,” he began then cleared his throat, “let’s just say that Tre…and I…and Marty…have all walked in on worse.”

My eyes went wide and I looked over at Alyssa and Billie. They were with smiling and Alyssa was biting her lip, trying not to say anything. Marty and Tre came out into the living room, and there was a random baby in Marty’s arms, and I just now noticed that her stomache was bloated looking…which looked more like a small bubble, and I instantly turned to Mike.

“Them too?” I whispered. He looked at Marty and Tre and smiled then shook his head.

“They have a daughter…her name is Alice. She’s sleeping upstairs, and so is Abby. Which, is Billie and Alyssa’s daughter.” Mike whispered to me.

“Oh dear God!” I said and put my hands over my face.

“Whats wrong Rans? Angry that I got some before you?” Alyssa threw in my face.

I began to laugh and so did she. Marty chimed in a few seconds later, just realizing what Alyssa had said.

“You’re sick.” I said with my finger pointing at her.

She shrugged her shoulders.

“Well, Tre and I are heading home. We’ll stop by again soon.” Marty said taking her, Tre and Abby out the door.

“Is she pregnant?” I asked.

“Yes.” Mike, Alyssa and Billie all told me.

“Oh!” I said shocked, “well, I’m tired. Where am I sleeping?”

“In the guest room. Follow me.” Alyssa said getting up, and I followed her upstairs and down a long hallway.

“This is the guest room. You’re welcome to stay as long as you’d like.”

“You’re sounding like one of those narrators on ‘The Price Is Right’ or something like that.” I told her with sarcasm in my voice.

She laughed and I went into the room. She also tossed me a pair of pajamas that I could wear from one of the closets in her and Billie’s room.

“Sleep well. I’ve missed you Randi.” She told me, “I love you.”
“I love you too.” I told her. I didn’t say that often, so I was pretty sure that it meant a lot to her. Plus Marty was the only best friend that she’s got anymore, and it’d kill her to lose her. So I wanted her to make sure that I was here also.

She pulled away and smiled at me before closing the door behind me. But Mike came in and laid on the bed. I changed in the bathroom into the clothes that Alyssa handed me, then I climbed into bed with Mike and quickly fell asleep.

[ALYSSA'S POV]

I went downstairs and saw Billie still watching TV, and he looked really bored. I smiled from the top of the staircase and I went down the steps, as swiftly as I could, trying to get his attention on me. I stopped half way down and I called out his name in a soft voice, almost seductive, but I didn't want to sound like that, it sickened me when people talked like that. Billie turned around and saw me standing on the steps. I was dressed in a tank top and some short blue shorts, and for some reason, I guess that caught his eye. He turned off the TV and started walking towards me.

"No!" I yelled and ran the rest of the way back upstairs. I ran into our room and I dove onto the bed. I rolled over onto my back with my arms by my head, and saw Billie standing at the end of the bed with our door closed.

"You're fast." I said.

"It isn't the first time." He said smiling. I tilted my head, trying to grasp the concept of the joke he just made. I finally understood it and I bursted out laughing.

"That was just sick." I said still laughing. He shrugged, of course, then climbed ontop of me, pinning my arms down exactly where they were and kissed me.

"I was just coming to tell you that I was going to bed." I whispered before he kissed me again, then went down to my neck and he looked back at me again.

"Your'e in bed now, arn't you?" He said sarcastically.

"No need to get cocky, Armstrong." I said poking his nose. He rolled his eyes.

"You're not getting your way tonight. My best friend is down the hall, are you stupid?"

"That doesn't mean that she has to hear anything."

"Ugh!" I groaned in disgust, but couldn't help but to laugh. I pushed him off of me and I put the covers over me.

"Goodnight Billie." I told him.

"It would of been a good night, but you just ruined it."

I got in his face, "shut up!" I said but smiled afterwards.

"You can't deny me."

"Yes I can."

"No you can't."

"Yes I can."

"No you can't."

"Alright! Fine! You win! But I'm going to sleep." I said giving up and rolling on my side to where I didn't have to face him.

"Fine. Night Lyss." He told me, and pressed himself up against my back and put his arm around my waist. I smiled and put my hand on his and I fell asleep.

[MIKE’S POV]

I woke up the next morning, and Randi was still sleeping quietly next to me with her face shoved into the pillow and the blanket all the way up, covering her shoulders. Her blonde and black hair was a mess as it stuck out all over the place. I smiled at her and slowly slid off the bed, trying not to wake her. I finally got up and saw that she was still sleeping, with her body moving slowly up and down as she breathed. I went into the kitchen and saw Alyssa digging through the refrigerator. She stood up straight again and I saw that she had a bagel sticking out of her mouth, a bowl of cereal in her right hand and a jug of milk in her left. I laughed at the sight of her, and she tried to hold back her laugh, afraid that she would drop the bagel and everything else she was holding. She closed the fridge door with her foot as she sat everything down on the counter and started cracking up, and I joined her.

“You looked ridiculous. Why didn’t you just set everything down in the first place?” I asked still laughing and holding my stomach.

She had calmed down and was still laughing a little in between breaths.

“I don’t know Mike, I don’t know. Think about it, it’s me. Do I ever think ahead?” She asked, placing her hands on her hips and leaning against the counter.

I put my hand on my chin, as if I was in deep thought.

“Hmmm,” I started, “nope.” I said with a smile. She smiled back then went to pour the milk into the bowl. Eventually, she was devouring the cereal like she was starving. I watched her demolish the bagel afterwards. She went to go burp, but it came out as really weak and just a little ‘pop’. Alyssa busted out laughing, as I did also, with orange juice coming out of my nose. I gasped in response and wiped my face off.

“Oh, that’s disgusting.” I said before I ran to the bathroom that was just down by the front door and wiped my face off with toilet paper. I heard Alyssa still laughing from the orange juice incident, and I shook my head. I came out of the bathroom and walked into the living room area where she was now sitting. My hand ran through my head of hair that was bleach blonde now and stuck to my head. I was thinking about going back to my ‘American Idiot’ era look, with the full brown, or just blonde with the brown roots coming in. I couldn’t decide. Alyssa was sitting on the love seat with her legs propped up on the armrest on the opposite end. She had the remote in her hand as if she was going to change the channel. Before she could, I looked up on the TV and saw that it was a talk show with a picture of us…Green Day…on it and was talking about our new record that was due to release in May.

”Green Day’s newest album, 21st Century Breakdown, is due to be in stores in May, and lead singer, Billie Joe Armstrong, says that the album is politics related.” The news reporter began to say.

I rolled my eyes and sat down on the recliner. It wasn’t new…well to me anyways, and I’ve been hearing the same stuff about us everywhere I went. Making a new record was a big deal, especially to all of the fans who’ve been waiting for such a long time. There was silence between me and Alyssa now, I guess we’d worn ourselves out by laughing over the stupidest things a few minutes ago in the kitchen. Billie was up by now and he came behind Alyssa and put his hands over her eyes and tried to do a fake girl voice asking, “guess who it is.” I put my hand over my face as I laughed at Billie. He was so stupid, and was horrible at covering up his voice. Alyssa grabbed his hands and pulled him to the side, causing him to fall flat on his face on the ground next to the couch. I laughed even harder at that. Seeing Billie in only boxers and a band tee on the ground after being pulled down onto it made me laugh.

“Shut up Michael!” He said as he got up. Alyssa gave him a cute little smile, and I couldn’t see Billie’s face since his back was turned to me, but Alyssa just laughed and rolled her eyes. He sat down at the end of the couch, and Alyssa shoved her feet into his lap.

The talk show was still talking about us, and was showing random pictures every now and then. Billie looked up at the TV and saw a video that was previously recorded of him being interviewed. He too rolled his eyes and changed the channel.

[RANDI’S POV]

I heard laughs and muffled voices coming from downstairs, and then I heard Alyssa yell something, then Billie…and then Mike. I looked over my shoulder behind me and noticed that I was alone. I got up and went to the bathroom to fix my hair. I grabbed a random brush from the top of the toilet and then violently shoved it through my hair as fast as I could. After I was done with that, I skipped to the stairs then walked down the steps, not wanting to break any bones in the process. I saw Mike sitting in the recliner; and Alyssa and Billie on the loveseat across from him.

“Hey Mikey.” I said and leaning down to give him a quick kiss. After I pulled away I looked at him and he smiled at me.

“Hey Rans!” Alyssa said cheerfully. I looked at her and gave her a usual glare, and she just laughed, like always. I saw Billie give her a kiss, and I waiting for them to pull away, but didn’t. I rolled my eyes and pretended to clear my through. Billie pulled away quickly and they both began to blush, looking down at their feet. I smiled at them, which was rare, and I sat down on Mike’s lap, since there was no where else to sit, other than the floor, but I didn’t feel like doing that. The house phone began to ring and they all groaned and looked at me.

“Fine. I’ll get it.” I said as I groaned myself. I went into the kitchen and answered the phone; it was Marty.

“Randi?” She asked sounding confused.

“It’s me. Nobody else wanted to answer the phone, and made me do it, while Lyssa and Billie played tongue hockey, I had to break it up.” I said rolling my eyes.

“Shut up Miranda!” I heard Alyssa yell from the living room. I laughed, and so did Marty; I guess she heard her too.

“That’s usual, get used to it Randij.”

“I have no other choice, do I?” I said sarcastically.

“Right. Anyways, I’m coming over. Tre is still sleeping, and I’m really bored over here.” She said then hung up. I looked at the phone with a confused look on my face, then I hung up and shrugged my shoulders. Walking out into the living room was probably a mistake; I saw that the three of them had started to play ‘Twister’, and Billie and Mike were going up against each other, as Alyssa was the one who called out all the movements with the spinner. My eyes went wide, due to the position that Billie and Mike were in. I couldn’t help but laugh though. Alyssa turned around to look at me and she had a big smile on her face.

“Now, who’s idea was this?” I asked as I sat down next to her.

“Mine.” She said with a smile.

A few moments later, Marty came in, and had the same expression on her face as I did, we all busted out laughing, and so did she.

“Oh, come on! It’s just a game.” Mike said getting frustrated.

“Yeah whatever,” Marty said sitting next to me, “Millie.” She whispered.

I immediately got confused.

“Millie? What’s that?” I asked.

Alyssa and Marty both began to laugh really hard. Billie and Mike were on my side; they were too also very confused.

“No seriously, what is it?” I asked. They both calmed down and explained in my ear to me that a ‘Millie’ was a Mike and Billie ‘moment’. Just like a Frerard was a Frank Iero and Gerard Way ‘moment’ that could sometimes last for hours.

“Oh God.” I groaned with my eyes wide, and looking at Billie and Mike like they were crazy. The two began to laugh really hard, once again, and the boys were still confused.

“What is it?” Mike mouthed to me.

“Never mind.” I mouthed to him, shaking my head. He rolled his eyes and Alyssa called out the next movement.

“Right hand red, left foot blue.” Alyssa said smiling at Billie. I worked out the movement in my head, and realized that it would only make the look of Billie and Mike a whole lot worse. Once it was done, us girls were laughing. Mike was hovered over Billie with his ‘area’ up against Billie’s butt and Billie’s legs were inter wined with Mike’s and they were both positioned like this, and they weren’t even on the ground. I pulled out my phone and quickly snuck a picture and showed it to Marty, then to Alyssa. They both held their hands over their mouths trying not to laugh.

“I’m done with this game. What’s so funny?” Billie asked getting mad as he collapsed on the ground, causing Mike to fall too. Mike luckily missed Billie and they were both laying on the ground.

“I can’t feel my arms.” Mike whined. Everybody ignored his complaint, which I found pretty funny.

“You don’t want to know, sweetie.” Alyssa said backing up into the couch as Billie got up and walked towards us.

“Oh yes I do. Randi, hand me that phone and let me see the picture.” Billie said reaching his hand out to me.

“No.” I flat out told him and took off running up the steps.

[ALYSSA’S POV]

“She’s not my girl. Mike, go get her.” Billie said with a sigh. Mike quickly got up and chased after Randi. He got all the way up the steps. I heard a few ‘thumps’ and then Randi screamed and laughed. We all smiled and followed them upstairs. Mike had her pinned to the floor of me and Billie’s room, which was a wreck.

“Done enough damage, eh?” Marty whispered to me. I replied to her by hitting her in the shoulder.

“Give me that phone!” Mike yelled reaching for Randi’s hand.

“Never!” She yelled back.

He rolled her over on her stomach and he strattled her legs as he pulled her arms behind her back. He squeezed her wrists tightly, causing her hands to open.

“Aha.” Mike cheered in victory and grabbed the phone. He flipped it open and started searching through the pictures, I assumed, since the expression on his was was priceless.

“I’m deleting that!” He yelled.

“No! I want to see it!” Billie yelled and took the phone from him. His face went blank and I laughed at him also.

“You’ll get payback, Randi. Trust me.” Mike said taking the phone and giving back to her. She stood back up and ran downstairs.

“My turn to be spinner!” She yelled. We all rolled our eyes and walked down the steps, to lazy to run. By the time we got down there, she was already sitting on the couch with the spinner in her hands, bouncing up and down eager to play the game.

“Mike, you don’t have to play. But Billie, you’re forced to.” She said. He rolled his eyes and I stopped to turn around and face him as Marty walked past us and took off her shoes and jacket, knowing that she had to play the game.

“You’re fine. I’ll be playing too.” I told him with my arms around his neck. His were around my waist and I gave him a quick kiss. I pulled away but I wanted more, and kissed him again with much force. I knew I couldn’t do it for much longer, so I pulled away, took his hand, and dragged him to the mat with the red, yellow, green and blue circles on them. We began to play. Mike and Randi took turns with the spinner, and sometimes Mike would cheat and make it a hard one as us three who were playing rolled our eyes at him. The game started off easy, but began to get hard as I had to wrap my arm around Billie’s leg and Marty’s arm and what not.

“Randi, go join them for a few rounds.” Mike said holding back a smile.

“Why?”

“No questions.”

“Fine.” She said giving in. Randi stepped up to the mat. Mike spun the spinner just for her, so she could start off in a fair position. It wasn’t too bad, but I could tell she was in pain already. He kept making really hard moves for her, and were really awkward positions. After about 5 more rounds, the three of us were starting to sweat from trying to hold ourselves up and were trying to stay in the correct position. Randi eventually collapsed almost in tears, and I felt really bad for her.

“Mike, that was mean.” I whispered.

“Paybacks a bitch, isn’t it Randi?” He said in a competitive tone.

“Yeah, and so are you.” Randi said trying not to smile, not wanting to get into a fight with him, as she rubbed her arms and legs.

I collapsed, along with Marty, then Billie. I went to Randi and made sure she was okay. She said that she was only teary eyed because she was ‘holding back a sneeze’. Whatever, I knew her too well. I gave her a hug, and she surprisingly didn’t try and push me away, that’s how I knew she was lying for sure. I let go of her a few moments later and I packed up the game. I jokingly glared at Mike, and he threw his hands up in the air as if he were saying, “what did I do?!” I shook my head at him and put the game back in the closet. That game now has some good memories with it.
