Y/N's POV, Early 1999

Mötley Crüe when the band started it was meant to be a unbreakable bond between four passionate people, a brotherhood stronger than anything else, but over the years all of them seem to have forgotten that and have fallen out over a number of different things and circumstances.

Things started to break down in 1985, then got better in 1988, then collapsed again in 1992, and have been up and down since. And now although things with Vince have improved, things with Tommy have now deteriorated and that's been hard on Nikki given Tommy's been by Nikki's side since the beginning of the band, he was the first person Nikki recruited and he's stuck with him for all this time, but now, their friendship was strained, Tommy's relationship with all the band guys has seen better days.

Vince and Tom had never really clicked again, they hadn't gotten along since 1990, after that they just tolerated each other until Vince's exit from the band in '92. And since Tommy's marital problems with Pamela Anderson and all that shit with them went down Tommy's been kind of a dick, he was stressed, hurt and depressed so I got it but he was taking it out on the wrong people, he'd lost interest in the band, I'd seen it, but I'm not sure Nikki had yet, or if he had he wasn't acknowledging it.

I'd known the guys for a long time, I used to work for them, Doc hired me for them in late 1983, my job was to assist the band for anything and go with them when they did interviews and things but really I was hired by Doc just to keep an eye on them all as he assumed they were more likely to listen to me than him, and that assessment turned out to be true.

It goes without saying Nikki and I hit it off quickly, he was always flirting with me and it took him nearly two years to actually win me over and get me to go on a date with him because I was so stubborn about it, he was too though, he didn't want to be used and I wanted him to prove to me he liked me enough to want a relationship not just a fling, and he proved just that.

We had challenges and mountains we had to climb but we got there in the end and came out of it all stronger in our relationship, I loved Nikki, I adored him and we'd been married ten years this year which was scary to think about because time really flies.

As for right now though, there was been another band meeting today to do last minute talks about the next album the band was working on which started in a couple of months time and Nikki had left to attend that meeting and had now been gone just under an hour, he usually left a little earlier because he always liked to be at those meetings first given it was his band.

I'd stayed at home, I wasn't needed there, I'd attend a few recording sessions but the band meetings I found pointless attending, I might be Nikki's wife but I'm not needed everywhere he is even if he wants me to be.

I had nothing to do really, the kids were at school so I was just watching TV, flicking through channels when I heard the front door open then slam a little aggressively which made me jump and look in the direction of the front door to see Nikki storming in and that makes me question why he was back here "Babe? You've barely been gone an hour. You okay?"

"No." He states simply "It's bullshit, the motherfucking audacity he has to do that. Asshole! He's dropped us right in the shit, and he hasn't even thought about that."

I furrowed my eyebrows, not understanding what he was talking about "Who has the audacity? What the hell are you talking about? I need context honey, I don't have the faintest idea what you're saying."
