Get Down Tonight
Axl's POV
Izzy and I were the only ones at home when Erin got home. Duff and Nikki had gone with Tommy down to the Cathouse. Slash and Steven went out to score. Erin smiles at Izzy thinking it's me. She collapses down on his lips and gives him a huge kiss. My eyes go wide with Izzy's surprise. He just sorta holds his hands up not knowing what to do. I just roll his eyes and bite his tongue.
When Erin releases his lips he just clears his throat, "Well hello to you too sugar."
"We were kinda talking about something important," I butt in.
Erin looks at me, "Oh come on Izzy, you've had him all day."
"Yeah Izzy," he smiles at me, "You've had me all day. It's my baby's turn," he says wrapping his arms around her again kissing her in a very vulgar kind of way.
I narrow my eyes at him. He's lucky I'm high right now or I'd mop the floor with his ass. He's just doing this because I declared no sex for either of us until we get back into our own bodies. Now he wants to piss me off by making out with my girlfriend! He knows that I can't do shit about it right now. But if he doesn't stop kissing my girlfriend all bets are fucking off! That fucking bastard.
"Erin," I say, "Erin..." but they're both ignoring me. She never gets all into my kisses that way, what gives?
Izzy twists my lips into a sarcastic smile and smirks at me as Erin starts sucking on his ear. I just narrow his eyes at him and scowl. "I think Izzy's feeling left out honey," he chuckles. I continue to just glare at him hatefully.
"Izzy can leave and go find a girl to shack up with," Erin dismissively flicks her wrist at me and kisses Izzy again.
I can hear Izzy moaning and I see Erins hand grab him over my jeans. Ok. Enough enough already! This shit has to stop. "I don't know," I say, "Axl said he didn't mind sharing, I mean I am his best friend after all."
"What?!" They both look at me in shock.
"Well that's what you said Axe," I glare at Izzy.
Erin raises her eyebrows and looks at Izzy, "You told him what?!"
My mouth gapes and Izzy doesn't have a clue what to say. "I... I...no. No I never said that!"
"Oh come on Axe, you said she'd be into it," I say with a big smile on Izzy's face. Yeah motherfucker, now what?
Then, out of nowhere Erin smacks the shit out of my face and pushes herself off Izzy's lap, my lap. She storms out the door slamming it shut behind her.
"What the fuck is wrong with you?!" He shouts at me in my own voice.
"You think I'm just gonna let you grope my girlfriend in front of me?! Fuck you!!"
"I was just fucking with you! Now you've pissed her off and left it to me to clean up your fucking mess! Fuck you!!" He yells back.
"You wish," I mutter under his breath.
The next thing I know he's grabbing his arms with my hands. He throws me onto the floor and straddles his chest pinning me to the floor. This normally went the other way with me pinning him to a floor. At least it looks right to anyone who might see. I look up at him trying to read through my own expressions. Its not anger, it's not anything spiteful at all. Confusion would be acceptable but it isn't even that. It's not worry. What does this look mean? Is it a reaction to whatever look I may be giving him?
Then Izzy slowly starts to move my face closer to his. My expression never once falters. My instinct is to back away, but I'm already on my back on the floor with nowhere to back away to. I try to get him off me but trapped in Izzy's body, I'm not as strong as I'm used to. Izzy has my strength now and he is holding me down with my own muscular legs. What is he doing? Why is he getting closer and closer?
Then it happens. Izzy presses my lips to his own. He quickly uses my hands to stabilize his head so that I can't move it. I have no choice but to take this. I try to make his lips as stiff as possible to refuse this awkward kiss. But Izzy's will is stronger than his lips. I feel my tounge gently go between his lips. My resolve breaks as I try to ponder what was happening. And while I'm busy trying to wrap my head around it his mouth just surrenders to mine which I'm not controlling.
I just couldn't comprehend why he was kissing me. I might be in another body but it's a guy! Why is he doing this? Then a flash of being on my back on the sidewalk pops into my head. I see myself looking down at me in utter panic. "Axl I love you." That was what he said to me in my own voice, Axl I love you. Finally Izzy releases me and the look on my face is unchanged.
"Do you get it now?" He asks softly in my voice, "I don't want your fucking girlfriend."
And I can't think of a single thing to say. All I can do is lay motionlessly on the floor in perplexed shock. Izzy raises my weight off of him and just looks down at me. I should speak but no words will form on his tongue.
"There, now you know my secret Axe, my big secret the VooDoo guy mentioned. Now you know what I told you on that sidewalk. So what's your secret? Your thing to overcome so we can just get our own bodies back?"
What? I can think but I can't talk. Izzy, my best friend, was in love with me? How in living hell is that possible? In love with me? It was a preposterous notion. In love with me, what the fuck was he talking about? He can't be in love with me. It's just not possible. It's improbable. It's reckless. It's just plain moralistically wrong! The very idea of it...in love with me? What gives him the right to love me? Nobody ever loves me. It's just not possible. This would all be funny in some parallel universe.
