It all happened in the blink of an eye. It happens so fast. At one point I was in my house with my bestfriend and the next minute I was in the 80s.
I knew I was because I saw the dates at the bus stop stations, and clocks in the diners. How? How did this happen?
I walk down a long road and looked for a sign that would tell me where I was. I was alone and scared. I had no clue what to do. God someone please help me.
I look up at my right and see a sign that says Sunset Strip. Hold on a minute. I was on the famous sunset strip.
No fucking way.
I smile and wrap my jacket round me tight. It was cold, like very cold. I put my hands in my pockets and feel something. I pull it out and see that I was 30 dollars. Oh, thats right! My parents gave me my allowance for the month today!
I put it back in my pocket. This would be good use in the future. It was dark, maybe about 12 at night and people were staring at me from afar.
I walk down the street quicky as I try and find somewhere to tell me the exact date and time. I then see a diner at the corner of my eye. I slowly walk over to it and walk in. There are many people in the place. I then go take a seat next to a window.
"Hello there honey, what can I get you?" Asks a girl with a notepad.
I look up at her and smile.
"Uhhh, could I get a coke? Also what date is it?" I ask her.
"It's 15th May!" She says happily.
I then look over at her outfit and she is wearing a Guns N Roses badge. It must be the year 1988. Guns N Roses got signed in 1987 and their record came out later in the year.
"Thank you. So it's 15th May 1988.." I say almost like a question.
She nods and smiles at me.
"Ok, I only want the coke thank you!" I say.
She takes a note of my order and then walks off. I smile and look out the window. Holy Shit. I had time travelled to 1988.
"No dude! You gotta like twirl it like this!"
"Like this?"
"Yeah! Then just keep doing that. You will get the hang of it Popcorn."
I slowly turn around and behind me I see Tommy Lee and Steven Adler.
I quickly turn back around and my eyes widen.
Fuck.
That's Tommy fucking Lee and Steven fucking Adler.
I then feel a presence beside me. I look up and they are both standing there.
"Hey, uh can we take a seat?" Tommy asks.
"Uh, y-yeah, sure." I say.
They both take a seat and there is a brief moment of silence.
"So we saw you turn around and thought you were really pretty and wanted to talk to you." Says Steven.
"Me, pretty?" I ask.
"Dude, your fucking gorgeous!" Exclaims Tommy.
"That's the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me. I'm Y/N." I say.
"I'm Tom-"
"Your Tommy Lee and your Steven Adler. I got your poster on my bedroom wall." I say.
My eyes widen at realization on what I just said.
"I can't believe I just said that." I mumble to myself.
This moment felt too familiar. Oh shit that's right! In The Dirt, the Mötley Crüe biopic something like this happened, well exactly like this. Tommy said he had Nikki's poster on his-
You know what nevermind. My bestfriend and I watched the movie as soon as it came out. It's one of our favourites.
"No way! You know my band?" Asks Tommy amazed.
"Hell yeah! Same for Guns N Roses." I say with a smile.
"For some reason you have became even more gorgeous to me after knowing you like rock music." Says Steven.
I laugh and smile at him as he blushes a bit.
"Well, where are you staying? We could walk you home. don't worry we don't mean stay the night!" Exclaims Tommy.
"Well, actually I'm homeless.." I say.
"What?" Asks Steven..
"Yep, you see I time trav- I mean just moved to L.A. and have nowhere to stay." I say.
"Well come stay with us! Steven and I have a house together! Actually Guns N Roses and Mötley Crüe all live together at the moment in a big house." Says Tommy.
(I know they don't actually all live together I just wanted to add it to the story!)
"Wait really?" I ask.
"Hell yeah! We have a car and we can go there right now." Says Steven with his child like grin.
"It's just I don't wanna be a burden." I say.
"Trust me you won't, Steven and I are like the odd ones out. We need a new friend." Says Tommy as Steven nods in agreement.
"Sure, I will move in." I say with a smile.
"Great! Let's go!" Exclaims Steven.
We all leave the diner and parked outside is a shiny red convertible. Steven get in and so does Tommy. I follow close behind and get into.
Tommy starts the car and Steven turns on the radio.
Paranoid by Black Sabbath starts to play and I bop my head along with the music. Steven notices and turns it up really loud.
Finished with my woman
'Cause she couldn't help me with my mind
People think I'm insane
Because I am frowning all the time
We all scream the lyrics and laugh hysterically at our enthusiasm and stupidity.
Then it hit me. Holy shit. I was about to live with two of the greatest rock bands of all time.
