Whoa, Billie Joe?

We were walking up the stairs from the basement. When I had the sudden urge to say something. I tried to hold it in but...

"Gosh you're short...some reason I figured you as being a taller individual."

He laughed as we walked through the kitchen doorway.
I took a seat on this awesome bar stool at the counter.
I watched him walk over to the cabinet and get two cups.

"Stop it!" He laughed.

I raised an eyebrow, "stop what?"

"Watching me like that...it's weird."

I laughed this time. "Well, it's not everyday I die and end up sitting in the coolest idiot's ever kitchen."
I started drumming the beat of Longview on the counter, "Sorry. Can't help it."

Billie started humming the words.

"How'd you know what I was playing?!"

"I wrote it, genius." He laughed. "Whaddya want to drink?"

I stretched my back a little. "Depends, what ya got in there?"

He started digging around in the fridge. "Grape juice, orange juice, coke, Dr. pepper, water, milk, stop me when you hear what you want." He said in a 'naming stuff on a list' tone.

A smirk spear across my face, "Coffee?" I asked.

He closed the fridge and walked over to the coffee maker, "if you insist." He began making some coffee.

That is when Joey walked in.

"Uh, dad I was wondering if I could-" He looked up at me. "Who’s that?" He said really slowly.

"That is uh...." Billie trailed off.

I laughed, "Billie." I said under my breath.

"Your names Billie?" Joey asked.

Before Billie could say anything, I said" yes."

"Logan why'd you do that?"

What the fuck? Billie's mouth didn't move...How'd I- I must- that means...

Hm... "I can hear your thoughts Billie! AHA!"

Me and Billie continued this little conversation in each others thoughts.
I guess we were giving each other mean looks because Joey was looking at us funny.

"Are you guys alright?" Joey asked in a real skeptical tone.

I raised an eyebrow, "Yeah." I said in a lousy tone.

"Lo- I mean BILLIE," he emphasized the "Billie." "We need to go continue the lesson. Your 'rents'll be hear soon."

"Yes. MR. ARMSTRONG." I said mocking him.

He sighed. A sigh like he was annoyed.

I smirked at him.
