Is This The End?

A new day comes nice, so I wake up and remember the concert on Saturday, what am I going to do… I mean, meeting Green Day´s pretty sweet, amazing, but still… I don’t fucking know the guy! I made my way downstairs, got out as soon as possible and started towards school, just like every Thursday´s morning; the difference of this though is that this week the semester is over, finally! A couple of weeks off school will be pleasant… even if I have to get a temporary job. I am somehow excited about the concert, I mean; you don’t meet your favorite band every day, at least not me.


Famous Saturday is here… I have to get ready and meet up with the cousin at school… I can’t be free of school on Saturdays either!
The alarm of the clock started ringing at 3pm o´ clock; I left my book aside and went up the stairs to get a shower. After getting the shower and getting ready I got out finding my dad walking up to the house; I didn’t even close the door and tried to get away quickly.

“Hey you! Come back here, freak! You know what?” He shouted as I walked on ignoring him, guess what? He was drunk. “I just saw your ex-freak around here, and! You know? He´s still a pain in the ass!” My blood started to run cold through my veins, what is he talking about?

A few minutes later I was already at school, since the cousin I didn’t even know wasn’t around, or wouldn’t come up to me, I sat on a bench and just looked around for a few minutes.

“Hey, you must be… Azelia? Right?” A very tall, black haired guy asked as he stepped right in front of me.

“Um… yes.” Did I just doubt what my name was? He chuckled with sympathy.

“Well, my cousin… told me that you were a big Green Day fan, are ya?” He smiled so naturally, it forced me to smile too.

“For sure.” I replied.

“That´s nice.” He stood there looking at me in the eyes with his hands on his front pockets. I examined him, his black haired was spiked up; he wore a Green Day T shirt and some worn out jeans, black converse. He´s eyes were blue, kind of small, but that made him look pretty cute, his pale skin looked so smooth on his cheeks; he was pretty good looking after all… “Oh!” He chuckled blushing as he noticed he´d been staring at me for quite a while. “Sorry… Uh, well. Name´s Mike, like Mike Dirnt.” He laughed happily, stretching his hand out to me. I smiled and shook hands with him.

“A pleasure to meet you Mikes” I don’t know why I felt in such confidence with him in such a quick time. He smiled; his smile made tiny holes on his cheeks.

“Well, let´s get to the car…” He smiled as he led me to his car.

“Rob did tell you the concert´s at New York, right?” Mike asked as he started the engine.

“Yup.” I nodded as I answered.

He started towards the New York road and turned on the radio. Dookie was on, how I love that record. He smiled, banging his head to Welcome To Paradise. I grinned at this.

The drive didn’t become that long, since we started chatting about other bands we liked, it was pretty stunning for me, that someone else liked same bands as I did. We eventually got to New York around 6, the concert begins at 7:00; I just want to be there now!

“Hey, we still got an hour left so, since we have pretty good tickets we don’t have to be in line an hour earlier; would you like to go eat something?”

“Sure.” I agreed. He smiled still looking to the front.

After we ate, we both had a little talking; then went back to the car. He opened the door for me politely and closed it behind me. He jogged to the driver´s side and got in as well; we both laughed at some random guy dancing awkwardly on the sidewalk as he started the car´s engine. He drove out of the drive-in. We´re only a few streets to the concert.

Mike drove down the street, I felt my head fall for a while, I´d gotten pretty tired for a while; I threw my head back on the car´s seat and closed my eyes.

“Fuck!” My eyes flew open at Mike shouting anxiously, I had lost conscience only for a few minutes; I looked to my right out of the window, just in time to feel and see the impact from another car colliding to ours. I felt one of Mike´s arms hold me back to evade that my head would be smashed by the glass or vise versa.

Our car stopped its movement by complete, the other car had stopped by complete too. My ears couldn’t hear anything for a while, but all of a sudden every noise I should have heard before came to me at the same time. Cars abruptly stopping and the soles of shoes running our way.
“Shit…” Mike coughed still holding me back. “You ok, right?” He asked fearfully I had been hurt.

“Yeah, I´m fine, what about you?”

“Yes, I´m glad this car is pretty strong…” He chuckled anxiously. I grinned back, happy we were both ok.

“Wait here…” He took off his seatbelt and got out of the car, running to the other driver´s door. I stared out the window as he opened the driver´s door.

I sucked my breath in. The other driver was, no he couldn’t be, he was so much alike…

“Chuck!” I got out of my seat as fast as I could, I ran through a couple of guys that were watching the whole damage of the cars. I got a look over Mike´s shoulder as he helped the driver out of his seat. It is him! “Chuck!” I cried.

“Wait, take it easy; gotta be very careful.” Mike warned. Chuck had been hurt! No! No, please, no!

“Chuck…” I whispered hurt. Mike pulled Chuck out of his car slowly and carefully; he laid Chuck on the floor, he was unconscious and breathing slowly, his eyes closed.

I feared for him so much, was it that bad, the crash? Mike and I barely got a scratch on ourselves.

“I think he hit his head with the wheel…” Mike scratched the back of his head nervously.

I took Chuck´s face in both of my hands. I put his warped arm in a nicer position. He snarled unconsciously. Dreadful thoughts came to my mind. I heard Chuck mumble something in the depths of his thoughts; I knew he was in pain.

“You know this guy?” Asked Mike, who was next to me.

“Yes.” I stared at his face as he grimaced, still unconscious. “Chuck it´s ok; you´re going to be alright.” I whispered. “Should we take him to the hospital?” Mike just shrugged.

“Look, he´s waking up.” I looked down at Chuck again.

“Where…” He stopped as his eyes widened to see me there. “Hun? I mean…” He stared up at me confused.

“How are you feeling? Did you hurt yourself?”

“I… I´m fine.” His wide eyes shining as much as mine, or so I think. I smiled.

“I hate this had to be the way we´d to meet again…” He chuckled at my comment.

“Ouch…” I giggled. “What happened?” He asked not even trying to sit up.

“We crashed, but it seems our car resisted enough…” I looked up at his car; the whole front was entirely fucked up, I guess he could see something had gone wrong with his car because of my look and looked at it too; he cringed.

“It seems mine didn’t…” He giggled.

“Why are you laughing?” I asked with a bewildered grimace.

“I´m glad.” He said amused.

“Glad? Why? Because your car is totally destroyed?” I giggled puzzled for his reaction.

“No. That it was my car and not yours. I´m glad you´re intact, not a scratch, that´s relieving…” He gave me one of those smiles only Chuck could. I grinned back still worried about his health. “I´m alright, don’t worry.” He sat up, with a few pain grimaces.

“I think we should take you to the hospital.”

“No, c´mon,” he chuckled, “I´m ok, really. Don’t worry.”
