A fire burns today // Billie joe fan fiction

[11] you

Billie Joe: do you wanna come round early? Like before Tre and Mike and your mom come around?

Me: in other words you want me to come early?

Billie Joe: in other words, I was wondering if you wanted to come around early.

Me: would you like me to come early? Or not.

Billie Joe: yes, :(.

I couldn't help but smile.

Me: Okay, I'll set off now. My mom says she'll come around about one-ish, what time are Tre and mike coming?

Billie Joe: round one too.

Me: Okay, I'll see you in ten minutes.

I was already ready, as I got up early for some strange reason today. my body just naturally woke me up at nine I guess. So I left the house to begin walking to Billies, but I couldn't help but think what Ollie had said yesterday. It just kept spinning in my head. I thought more about it now as I waked to theirs.

Billies right, you are pretty

I reached his house and knocked on the door, obviously expecting Billie to open it. So I was quite a surprise when I found myself wrapped again in the same arms of Ollie.

"Hey!" She smiled giving me a bear hug. I hugged her back and said hi as she walked me through the house. "Billies already in the back garden cutting grass with the lawnmower." She told me.

"Wow, that's surprising." I laughed.

"Yeah,"

we walked through the living room as she turned around to me. "He speaks a lot about you you know." She smiled. I felt myself blush, I also picked up how she didn't say 'y'know.'

"Really?"

"Yeah, I've never seen him act like this around a girl before," she laughed. "It's nice to see him happy."

I was about to say something, but she opened the back door. I saw Billie going up and down the garden with one of them old fashion push mowers. He was walking down the garden with it with his back facing me so he hasn't exactly realised I was here.

Ollie told me to sit down in a lawn chair at the top of the garden as she went to get something from out the house.

I watched Billie as the push mower had gotten stuck. he kicked it in frustration and began to still try and push it forward, but it wouldn't budge.

I laughed getting up out of my chair and walking over to him, I walked up behind him and spoke.

"That's not how you do it." I laughed as he jerked fast and turned around with wide eyes.

"You scared me," he laughed as he dropped the push mower and pulled me into a hug. This was new.

I took in his scent as I furrowed my face into his chest. We then pulled away.

"Well, how do you do it then smart Ass?" He asked me picking it back up from the floor.

"Here let me," I said taking the handle out of his hands, I pulled it back slightly then pushed it forward as it began to move again. He raised his eyebrows and took it back from my hands.

"How do you just do that stuff," he said confused as we walked back up to the garden with the push mower. He put it down and sat in the chair next to me.

We sat in silence, as I thought about what to say.

"This silence will be missed when Tre and Mike get here," Ollie laughed as she walked back into the back garden. I and Billie both laughed.
