My Piece of the Action

GN'R party

Raven stood by the door to the storage unit rehearsal space.

"Wooo-oh!" Steven cried out as Axl and one of the chicks at the party began making out against the wall. She had noticed Steven becoming looser and more elastic then usual. He would act drunk even before he'd had any alcohol, but it didn't affect his playing so the rest of the band was actually pretty chill with it. She'd seen Slash send him concerned glances before, and Izzy and Duff had both asked multiple times over the past few days if he was feeling alright. She knew Axl was always very focussed on what he was doing and could forget about the other people involved. He could even come across as ignorant, or inconsiderate, but Raven was perfectly aware of just how much Axl really did care.

He and Slash had thrown the party happening around her at the moment to celebrate new years, but Raven knew they didn't actually care that much about the reason of the partying, they just wanted to get drunk with a bunch of randoms and pass out.

Slash was having some kind of drinking game a few metres from her with Steven and few few random party goers, Axl was getting very intimate with the girl up against the wall and Izzy was slumped against the same wall very close by Axl's feet, asleep. Raven, being almost 20 weeks pregnant, was once again stuck sober as everyone around her got 'slashed'. She was just wondering where Duff was when his over tall figure came pelting around the corner of the building and he slammed right into her. She almost fell on her arse, but her grabbed her hands just before she hit the ground and pulled her back up,

"Fuck. Sorry Raven!" Duff exclaimed.

"Th-that's okay!" She stammered, heart pounding in shock and fright. "You scared the shit outta me! What the fuck were you even doing?!" She exclaimed,

"Running." He said blankly, then turned and stalked away. Raven rolled her eyes and walked over to lean against a wall, making sure that she was very much out of the way, so that nobody would try to bowl her over again. She looked over to where Axl and the chick were standing to see that in her confusion involving Duff, the two had disappeared somewhere,  and Raven could only imagine what they might be doing.

Raven had to have her next appointment tomorrow, and she idly thought to herself that the five men had better be able to get their arses up and come with her in the morning.

She sighed and watched as Duff chugged another drink, having joined Steven and Slash at the drinking game. There was laughter all around and music blaring from the stereo system inside the storage unit that somebody had dragged in.
The people in the aparment across the way had opened their doors and the partygoers were going in and out of the place as well as partying out the front of GN'R's little storage unit. Their neighbours didn't seem to want to steal the party or have a different one, they seemed like they just wanted to join in, and the party goers were taking perfect advantage of their home. Raven heard something break inside and lots of laughter and chatter. She decided to go inside in search of somebody sober. The place was already trashed, alcohol bottles and rubbish littered the floor and drink stained the carpet. A few people were already passed out, and others were dancing around them and tripping over them in search of more drink, food or a toilet. Nobody at all seemed sober,  Raven moved through the place, one guy was vomiting in the kitchen sink, which made her flinch and cringe, and brought on her own nauseous feelings. Moving on, she discovered (and quickly covered again) a couple fucking in one room. The bathroom had two people passed out in the bathtub on top of each other. She gave up, and made her way back out to the storage space that the boys owned, and on her way out, amired the unknown person's workmanship,  who had duct taped some poor passed out fool to the ceiling.  It was actually pretty well done. The guy was completely bound and securely taped up to the wood surface of the ceiling with only his head sticking out the top. She laughed to herself at what his reaction would be like when he woke up.

Just as she got outside, she could hear a woman screaming, shouting about something. Raven didn't think all that much of it at that moment. She was getting used to people being fuckwits by then. She simply proceeded casually toward the roller door of the storage unit. Upon entering, she saw a half dressed woman with tears streaming down her makeup caked face, mascara running, picking up her clothing from the floor. She'd sort of lost her mind, and Raven recognised her as the girl Axl had been making out with earlier in the night against the wall.

"You really need to leave." Axl said calmly, or seemingly so, but as he stepped toward the girl, Raven could see that glint in his eye. He was losing his temper. This girl was about to feel the wrath of that trademark Axl Rose anger.

She blubbered something illegible and plonked her arse down on the cement floor. Slash came through the door, taking in the situation.

He stepped forward calmly.

"Get the fuck out!" Axl shouted, grabbing her under the arms and trying to carry her out of the way, but she bit his hand and he yelled out in pain, dropping her back onto the ground.

She was screaming even more now, but to a shocked Raven, it all just blended together into a never ending stream of curse words.

"Hey, calm down

It's late, you've had alot to drink and you aren't thinking straight. You need to go home." Slash said calmly. Suddenly, through the blur of insults, a single line of awful words came through, barely coherent, but just enough, all the same.

"I WAS CHERRY  YOU FUCKING DICK!" She screamed through her tears. The familiar words hit her like a tonne of bricks to the face and she shriveled up inside. They weren't actually something she'd heard, but those thoughts had torn through her concious more times then was comfortable in the past 20 weeks. Drunk fucking was the very cause of the dilemma currently growing within her.

"Please get up, you really need to go home" Slash remained calm, gesturing toward the door, "here, let me help you up and you can go." He offered one of his hands, which she took, before running away on her wobbly legs and disappearing into the night. Axl slid down the far wall, where he'd retreated to, and huffed out a sigh. Slash went back out to the drinking game, lightly brushing his fingers over Raven's arm on the way past, and Raven went and sat next to Axl.

"Hate it when that happens. How would I  know if she was a virgin or not?!" He exclaimed.

"I know, Ax." Raven said, rubbing his arm, "but when that thought hits you, it hits you damn hard. It knocked me  on my arse when I realised what happened, and it was so fucking hard to get back up. I was just lucky not to still be at the guy's house when it happened." Raven told him "and Slash is right, it is late and she was very drunk and had even had some drugs, so she wasn't in the right state of mind." She added. Axl nodded,

"I know it's hard on her, I know. But when girls tell ya they were a virgin afterwards it makes you feel kinda guilty, if you know what I mean?" He said.

"I do know what you mean, but I have a doctor's appointment in the morning and I really need you there, so you should probably tell these drunk idiots to fuck off and get some rest." She replied, and Axl got up to do just that.

How did you like it? Apologies for the random bold writing in the middle of the chapter and the fact that it's so short. I'm writing on a mobile phone so sometimes I'll accidentally hit buttons and sh*t.
Thanks for reading. Rock on, everyone! And thankyou for your undying patience and loyalty.
