He Steals the Image In Her Kiss

Some things just aren't meant to be, others are.


I had been dating Mike for 2 years. We loved each other. We met at a record label party. He was with his established band Green Day and I was just signed onto Reprise Records as a solo artist. Mike was once again in the spotlight for his new record "American Idiot" and I was actually gaining some fame for my first single. It took forever to make the album but it was worth it.


We were at another party this time for Billie Joe..the lead singer/ guitarist of Green Day. All of us were together to celebrate Billie being newly single. He had just gone through a divorce from his wife Adrienne..I felt really badly for him.She had cheated with a family friend. When I first got the news I started getting thoughts in my head. I just brushed them aside until I talked to Billie. I asked if he had any signs of her cheating. His response "yeah, I just realized all of them the moment my world came crashing down" That moment was the moment he walked in on his wife and the other man. I asked what the signs were and my world came crashing down too.


Mike, real nice...funny...smart...talented...loyal..loyal's not a word I'd use now..I used to. I hadn't confronted him, why would I of? What if I was wrong and he left me because I don't trust him? He had acted strangely for the past year or so. He was always out doing something with Tre and Billie..one time I got so nervous I actually called Tre and Billie's cell phones..Tre was at the Mall shopping for birthday presents alone.Billie was home alone. "Why would you think he was with me?? Didn't he tell you where he was going??" he had asked. I responded with "Yeah, he said he'd be with you and Tre."


"oh, Jesus."
"yep"
"I'm sure he's just on his way here or something...traffic may be.."
"NO!! Don't give him excuses..."
"I-I won't. Sorry babe. It'll be alright."
"I hope so." Billie had called me babe since the moment we met at that same Reprise party. "Do you want me to come talk to you Gwen or do you want to be alone right now??" he asked politely so he wouldn't over step his boundary."I need you." I said softly as tears started building up in my eyes. "I'll be right over." he said quickly and hung up his phone. I know what your all thinking is about to happen. No, nothing happened between me and Billie Joe that night. I guess that's a lie, one thing did happen...I fell in love with him. I know it was wrong still is. I couldn't look into his eyes without wanting to cry, hell, without wanting to rollover and die. I was torn..already dead on the inside except for when Billie noticed me ,that made me spark back into life but that also made me want to die even more because it was wrong.


Billie walked up to me as I was watching Mike laughing and talking to Deb during BJ's party. "God, she's gorgeous"
"Who is??"
"That chick that's with Mike" My voice was shaky.
"Nah, she's nuthin compared to you babe." I smiled softly and started walking away. Billie grabbed my arm and whispered "Ask him." into my ear.
"I can't"
"Yes you can, even if he leaves you for something as retarded as not trusting him, you always have those other fish in the sea."
"No one likes me."
"Ha! I know sooo..ooo..ooo many guys who are obsessed with you.That long for your touch and would do anything for you to be happy and kill, steal, cry, feel pain, die for you."
"Your drunk Billie."
"I wish! It would numb the pain."


He walked away. I was confused and just shook my head. I went over to Mike and Deb. "We need to talk Mike."
"Why? What's up?"
"Alone" I looked over at Deb.
"Ok?" We walked to a corner of the room.
"So, do you like that girl??"
"Yeah she's pretty cool."
"No, do you like her, like her."
"What are we in middle school now? What do I wanna fuck her? I wouldn't mind...if I wasn't with you I mean." I could tell that last part was a cover up.
"I wasn't born yesterday Mike."
"But you are young."
"Not that young." I poured my drink onto his head.


"Look, if you let me cheat I'll let you fuck Billie."
"What the hell?"
"Oh, like I can't tell how badly you want him."
"How dare you! I would never even with permission cheat. This is not an open relationship!" Everyone could hear us at this point. I noticed Billie Joe staring at us and I put my head down. "I want to make this work" Mike said "you just have to work with me."
"Fine" I whispered
"OK, here we are. We can do it. We've made it this far."
"Yeah, with one being unfaithful.”
"I'll stop. I can change I swear!" Mike put his arms out as if to hug me. I hugged him and looked over at Billie while in the middle of the embrace. Billie Joe looked so sad. I didn't get why and figured it was just cause my premonitions were right.
