Dove Crimson is the next big thing on the sunset strip going by the name Lupasa.
What will happen when she's asked to go on tour with Mötley crue? Is her rise of fame and new love interest good for her? Who cares. This isn't a normal love story any...
I woke up in a good mood for once. We got kicked off our tour with KISS, they were a bunch of old men anyway, they weren't anything like what I thought real rockstars were like. Pure business men when they walked off stage and no fun at all. Despite that, we heard news that we could be going on our own tour, Doc wasn't meant to tell us yet but our opening act was this duo 'band' called Lupasa, he had been asked by Elektra to manage them. If Doc were to manage them, we would be seeing them a lot more after the tour as well. Me being the control freak I am, I needed to meet them.
"What strip club are we hitting first tonight then?" Vince laughed.
"Business first, you know about our tour, well we need to meet our opening act" I took a swig of beer.
"Ooo what is it- um- Lupasa" Tommy yelled.
"Decent name" Mick sighed. Which was actually a compliment.
"The singer chick, Dove, is meant to be so fucking hot dude" Tommy said excited.
I had heard about this crazy 'Lupasa' selling out the strip just as we did. I needed to see them on stage, to see what they would be bring to the tour.
"Well then, I call dibs." Vince chuckled.
"Yeah with our luck she's probably dating that drummer boy she sings with." I patted his back as we walked out and headed to the strip to meet Doc.
Dove's POV
"Okay, great, thanks for letting me know."
Tom hung up the phone.
My heart was racing and I was starting to sweat.
"Daniel, they are coming tonight."
"What are you on about now?" he poked his head round the dressing room.
"Motley Crue and that Doctor manager guy." I muttered zoned out.
"You mean Doc, their manager?" he laughed.
"Yes, you know what I what I fucking meant." I gave a slight chuckle.
"Well isn't that good? We get to meet the band that we are going to be touring with and we get a manager at the same time." He questioned.
"wha-what if we mess up, or seeing them gives me stage fright and I like throw up on stage or something." I could feel my heart race faster.
"Hey, its going to be fine, you are Dove fucking Crimson and I am Daniel fucking Statton, we don't mess up, we don't get scared and we most fucking definitely do not lose!" he yelled.
"You should be a football coach." I acted shocked sarcastically.
"Get ready champ." He said walking into the bathroom.
I looked really fucking hot, I was quite literally a walking piece of art. When I looked my best, I felt my most confident, and I needed all the confidence I could get tonight. I had on a black mesh mini dress and Leather platform boots.
(Pic for reference but imagine more volume in hair - as it was the 80s lol)

I ran on stage, and I could feel my heart in my throat. It was completely packed as usual, but this time was clearly different, because we both knew it was the biggest moment in our career so far and we could not fuck it up.
"Hello sunset!" I yelled.
The crowd was screaming.
"Did you miss me?" I smirked, causing the crowd to scream and yell louder.
"Aw thank you, you know I've missed you too, so much that I have a new song for you, do you wanna hear it?"
hundreds of "yes" and screams filled the room.
"Well there is no denying that.." I turn to Daniel who's playing a simple beat as background "What do you think Daniel, shall we give them a show?" He nods and spins the drum sticks in his hands.
"Lets hear it for our new song- National Anthem".
(National anthem (DEMO VERSION) Lana del rey)
I was nearly half way through the song, when I spotted them, You couldn't miss them. One caught my eye, he was tall, green eyes and black teased hair. I found myself staring too long because when I was awoken from my trance he was staring at me awkwardly and playing with his hair.
Nikkis POV-
We entered the club, and it felt weird not being the ones playing for once. The smell of sweat and booze hit my nostrils and honestly it felt like home. God have I missed tis place.
"lets get a drink." Vince said.
"Four Jack and cokes and a vodka please" Tommy asked.
"Make it a bottle." Mick said.
As we had our drinks, the famous 'Lupasa' came on stage, and boy was Tommy right. Dove was one of the most beautiful girls I had ever seen. She was like a ball of fire on stage. She was perfect... for our tour.
"I don't care if you like her or not, she is going to make a lot of money, she is 'IT'. I am managing her either way." Doc muttered to me.
"They, there is two of them." I said sarcastically.
This new song of hers wasn't exactly my style but it was a piece of art, I'll give her that.
Being a songwriter myself I was listening to the lyrics and they were petty fucking good.
It's a love story for the new age, for the sixth page We're on a quick, sick rampage Winin' and dinin', drinkin' and drivin' Excessive buyin', overdose and dyin'
On our drugs, and our love, and our dreams, and our rage Blurrin' the lines between real and the fake Dark and lonely, I need somebody to hold me
He will do very well, I can tell, I can tell Keep me safe in his bell tower hotel Money is the anthem of success So put on mascara and your party dress
I'm your national anthem, boy, put your hands up Give me a standin' ovation Boy, you have landed, babe, in the land of Sweetness and danger, Queen of Saigon
I was studying her on stage when I caught her staring at me. I could see the sweat reflecting of her forehead, and the way her hair fell so perfectly and don't get me started on those fucking eyes. They were burning into my soul. She caught herself staring at me too long, maybe my blushed face and awkward movement made her realise, but she pretty much avoided staring at me the rest of the show.
Doves POV
We had finally finished our show, and I was in my happy place, adrenaline, a bottle of gin and a baggy of cocaine to even me out. Daniel had no problem with me drinking and doing drugs as long as it was after the show and not before.
"Hey don't hog it, I need some too." Daniel huffed.
"Have you never heard of ladies first?" I sniffed the line handing him the mirror it was balanced on. Just as I looked up I see Motley Crue and Doc stood there with shocked faces.
Shit.
