Caught Between Two Worlds (paul stanley x oc fic)

Part 5

February 18, 1974, Los Angeles California, Century Plaza Hotel, 8 a.m.

The sun was already starting to blaze as a jeep pulls up to the hotel. Dakota shuts off the engine and looks up at it.

"So you're sure this is the place they're going to be playing at tonight...Ava? Ava?"

Dakota looks over and sees Ava asleep in the passenger seat. Dakota rolls her eyes and takes her right hand off the steering wheel and smacks Ava's shoulder to wake her up.

"ow! What the hell I was sleeping!"

"I know...I need to make sure I'm at the right place" Ava opens her eyes and shifts her body to look at the hotel that they were parked in front of.

Ava looks the hotel up and down through hooded, sleepy eyes and says "yeah I remember seeing this as I kissed Paul this was where they were headed"

"great" Dakota gets out of the car and Ava follows, when they pass a station wagon filled with guitars and amplifiers. As they pass the station wagon, on their way to the hotel entrance they see four tall men exit the hotel. Ava stops Dakota in her tracks and spins her around to face her. "ugh what why did we stop walking...I'm hungry"

"Dakota I think that's KISS without makeup" "what no that cant be them" Ava stands on her toes to look over Dakota's shoulder and sees the four men lugging the guitars and amplifiers into the hotel when one of them catches her eye.

She saw one of them stop in his tracks at look straight at her with his mouth gaping. While the other guys stopped at saw what he was looking at and chuckled slightly and take him back into the hotel with them.

"Dakota....that was Paul Stanley I know it was him" "

how would you-"

"how could you explain how he looked when he saw me he was surprised to see me"

"Ava that guy didn't even look like how Paul Stanley would look without makeup ok your just desperate to see him again that's all."

Ava pushed Dakota back angrily "oh really well I have a really good reason for being desperate...I don't want to see them being killed by Cody for no reason"

"well there is a reason....that they had contact with you...SOOOOOO....really if they die it's your fault"

"seriously Dakota! SERIOUSLY?!" Ava briskly walks past Dakota towards the hotel entrance leaving Dakota behind in her wake.

As Ava enters the hotel and stumbles into someone that was standing right in front of her. Asboth go to apologize they both look at each other, both wide-eyed. Ava looks up and sees a man that stands 6 feet tall with big hair, a very strong & sexy jawline and beautiful mahogany eyes staring down at her with a smile on his face.

"sorry I shouldn't have stood next to the entrance"

"oh no it's my fault I Wasn't looking where I was going"

"well despite that...I'm Stan nice to meet you"Paul held out his hand for Ava to shake which she gladly shook while thinking about how he used his real name to introduce himself.

"I'm Ava it's nice to meet you" she smiled at him.

"So what are you here for?"

"Oh you know that band KISS is supposed to play here today" Paul gives Ava a surprised look "who?" Ava laughs.

"oh you know exactly who I'm talking about" Ava smirks at him "and the only reason why I've shown up is, well, I have a thing for the lead singer, he's....REALLYsomething" Paul smirks back at her with a glint in his eyes

"oh really..." Ava Smiles back. "yeah I hope to see you there....Stan" and walks away toward the check-in desk. Paul looks at her in line and says to himself

"oh I'll be there alright..." and walks back to his hotel room.
