Love and Leather

Chapter 9: Trouble

"Man! I'm so fucking hyped!!" My brother yelled as he grabbed my shoulders and tossed me around, I was happy that he was happy.
"I'm gonna go to the bathroom and get changed." I told him,
"I'll wait right here." He said as I walked to the bathroom to get changed into my outfit.

I looked in the mirror and fixed my hair and checked my make up,
"God, what are you doing." I whispered to myself. I had knots in my stomach, and it was hard to breathe. I put my hand on my stomach and took a deep breath, and then exhaled slowly,
"Pull it together Vanity." I said out loud, then a group of girls walked in and I quickly left the bathroom.

"C'mon! Let's find our seats." My brother said while grabbing my wrist and pulling me through the crowd. The more we got lost in the crowd the more closer we got to the stage,
"ah right here!" I stopped in my tracks, we were only three rows away from the stage.

"Grey,I don't feel good." I told him and he rolled his eyes,
"Oh stop being such a pussy and get over here." He told me and I sighed and scooted past people, not only was it three rows from the stage but it was dead in the middle.

I sat down in the chair, crossed my legs and chewed on my thumb nail,
"can you please act interested?" Greyson asked me ,
"Grey! The show hasn't started yet!" I defended myself,
"Don't ruin this like you ruined your friendship with Nikki." Greyson said and I smacked his arm,
"hey! That was rude!" He put his hands out in defense,
"I'm just saying...I don't wanna look over at you and see you sulking the whole time."  He told me and I just nodded and looked at the stage.

I looked up as the lights dimmed and the crowd started screaming, and the girls that were behind us were especially loud,
"Ladies and gentleman, Mötley Crüe!!" My heart started beating faster when I heard the announcer.

Immediately Tommy was banging on his drums, mick was playing his guitar, Nikki was plucking the strings of his bass and Vince started singing, and I finally decided to stand up and see them, but I was still a tad to short.

Don't you know, know, know
It's a violation
I still hear you saying
Such a perfect, perfect night
No , no, no fight all temptation
Well, in a black hearted alley fight
I'm screaming
Take me to the heights tonight

Take me to the top,
Take me to the top.

About two hours later they were playing 'Looks That Kill'

....if you don't get her name
Well you might not make it back

She's got the look that kills, that kill
She's got the look that kills, that kill
She's got the look that kills, that kill
She's got the look

I was singing along to the song, when I looked at Nikki. He seemed to be having the time of his life, I smiled at the thought of him enjoying what he loves.

I then realized his eyes were looking in my direction. As his eyes met mine, his fingers slowed on the bass until there was no movement at all. He shaked his head and closes his eyes, walking onto the cat walk in front of the crowd. Beginning to strum the strings again, a sigh leaves my lips, praying he didn't recognize me completely.

He starts head banging while strumming at the speed of the song. His poofy, teased hair is flying all over the place but then again his eyes search for mine until we lock sight again,
