Y/N's POV, 1998

Out of all the things I could have predicted today, this wasn't one of them. I had a fiancé, Matthew and he was currently arguing with me because he hated how close I was with my friends, well... mainly one friend, Nikki Sixx. Now, I'd known Nikki years, literally years I'm talking over twenty.

We'd known each other so long, even before we ever came to Los Angeles. I knew him from school and we'd just always been close, and maybe a little too close when we've both been in relationships, I admit but all of it was platonic. I'd been with Matthew for seven and a half years, and at first he was in awe of Nikki and the other guys, they were Mötley Crüe, I mean, who wouldn't be?

But over the years, he just grew a resentment for him and especially since Nikki became a newly divorced man in 1996, and was single, Matt hates him all the more. Nikki and I didn't really know what personal space was when we were around one another, we'd never had it because we didn't need it.

I'd always been Nikki's comfort person, and he'd always been mine, we just trusted each other, and both those facts were why I think Matt hated Nikki so much, and given he was still a single man meant he didn't really hold back on his PDA with me. Nik and I always held hands, sat with arms around each other, hands on each other, we'd always kiss one another, not on the lips I must clarify, obviously. I mean, we still make a habit of crashing out in the same bed whenever circumstances arise for that.

Since I knew it bothered Matt I have tried to limit the PDA whenever Nikki came over to satisfy Matt's insecurity over it while simultaneously not hurting Nikki's feelings.

But I could hardly even sit next to Nikki now, Matt would always sit in between us and if I ever wanted to hang out with Nikki alone now, it always resulted in an argument because Matt didn't trust Nikki not to try anything with me and didn't trust me not to let him.

It was exhaustive and Nikki had began to notice I wasn't seeing him as often or being as open with the PDA, and he knew Matt hated him and why I was doing it but I know it still hurt his feelings. I loved Nikki, truly I do but Matt's my fiancé and I didn't want to argue with him,

But today, an argument was inevitable I supposed, next week Matt and I had planned to go out for dinner together, but accidentally on the same evening I'd told Nikki I'd go over with him to Tommy's place, as he was getting released from jail the night before and Nik wanted me there because Tommy was my friend, all the guys were my friends, but Tommy and I had a similar bond to the one Nikki has with him so Nik felt it best that we both just go over and make sure he's alright.

And I'd just realised the double booking and had told Matt, sparking this whole argument and boy, was it a bad one.

"Can't you see how fucking wrong it is?! Can you not? Because I'm telling you if you can't fucking see how fucked up it is that you let another man run his hands all over you while I'm sat right fucking next to you, you're all kinda of fucked up in the head!" Matt yelled at me, banging a finger into his head to drill his point.

"Nikki doesn't 'run his hands all over me'! He's my best friend, I've known him for over twenty years, we're close, okay?! How many times do I have to repeat that to you! Nikki isn't a threat, Matthew! For fucks sake!"

"What part about this is okay with you?! If I had a female friend touch me the way you and Nikki touch each other, you're telling me you'd be okay with that? Stop making me out like I'm fucking crazy, Y/N! It's not right!"
