chapter one

i sit in my dressing room in irritation, fixing up my makeup and adjusting my hair trying to look as presentable as possible. i had just gotten into an argument with my band mates a few minutes prior and i was already not in the mood for bullshit. but of course being a star came with consequences. i had already promised my band mate Dahlia that we'd be at a party being thrown down on sunset after our show, now i'm starting to regret my promise but there's no going back now.

i get up from my chair and search in my closet for an outfit that seems appeasing to me. after i got dressed i stepped out of my dressing room and began walking to our apartment, which was a few streets away.

once i got there i was met with Dahlia and our other band members getting dressed up for the party.

"are we ready to go?" i ask as i light my cigarette and take a drag.

"hell yeah, let's go people!!" Dahlia yelled excitedly. i chuckled in response and we made our way out the apartment and onto the streets of LA.

                           a couple minutes later

after a pretty short walk on sunset we made it to a small-ish apartment with a bunch of people walking in & out of it.

i started to make my way through the entrance of the apartment till i was interrupted by my band mate Dahlia. "where are you going Viv?" i turn in confusion, my finger pointing towards the door of the apartment. "inside?" i said in a confused tone. Dahlia chuckled in response. "no silly, that's not the door! that is!" she said pointing up at something above my head.

i turn to look and see a window cracked open, that i originally assumed was for the smoke in the room. "a window??" i said still confused. "yup. these guys are pretty cool huh." she said smiling. "cool isn't the word i would use.. but whatever.."

Dahlia only chuckled in response as she made her was up the stares of the apartment & through the window.

when i entered the apartment i was met with the smell of weed, alcohol, cigarettes, and some other unidentifiable smells. i looked around trying to find someone i might know, and when i looked forward i locked eyes with a tall boy with messy hair and what looks to be— women's shorts? i chuckle at the sight as i look him up and down. he's not that bad to look at tho..

i walk away and begin to wander around not sure what i was searching for but hoping to find something, or someone.

i walked into a room and quickly regretted it as i was met with two people doing some interesting things to eachother. i apologize and slam the door trying to rid my mind of that thought. after a few minutes i decide this party is pretty boring when ur sober and decide to take a seat outside. i sit on the stairs of the apartment & light my cigarette, watching people wander the streets & looking at how beautiful the sky looked tonight.

after about a minute of peace, i feel someone walking down the stairs and sitting next to me. i turn my head and it's him- the guy in the girl shorts-

i look at him and he looks at me. he's drinking a bottle of jack, straight from the bottle..

as we lock eyes he moves the bottle towards me as if he's offering it to me. "want some?" he asks genuinely.

"maybe. it's not like- laced or anything right-" i ask on a cautious tone.

he chuckles in response. "No, of course not" he says. "if it was i wouldn't be drinking it." he says surely.

"eh, i wouldn't put it past you." i say taking a drink from the bottle. i hand it back to him and he chuckles as my body rejects the drink- or maybe the taste. "jesus- how can you drink that—" i say disgusted. he only laughs. "first time drinker?"

"something like that." i say making an ugly disgusted face and trying to get the taste out my mouth.

he stares at me like he's never seen a woman before. "can i help you?" i say, in a sorta bitchy tone. not that i meant it to sound that way. "jeez, so hostile for what?" he says smirking at me.

i sigh knowing i was being pretty rude for no reason. "so, who are you? just a random rockstar?"

"something like that. the names Nikki." he says as if he expected me to know him.

"Nikkiiii-?" i respond in a confused tone, expecting him to say his last name or at least whatever band he's apart of.

"Sixx. im from the band Mötley Crüe. ever heard of us?"

"im not sure, it doesn't ring any bells." i say whilst searching the depths of my memory for something about him.

"oh- well, we're pretty popular. a lot of people know us."

"oh well that's nice." i say still thinking.

"well, what's ur name?"

"Vivienne. my last names Valiente, but that doesn't matter."

"cool name, what are you? some rockstars girlfriend or something?"

i chuckle in response. "No, but i am a rockstar."i say proudly.

"oh really?" he says raising an eyebrow. "what band are you from?"

"Visualizer. my band mate Dahlia is actually the one who suggested we come here, she said one of you invited her."

"ohhh you're from Visualizer!" he said. "Yeah i know Dahlia. we invited you guys after your set at that club. we were trying to find you but you kinda vanished." he said chuckling.

"aw, how sweet." i said with a smile. "i was in my dressing room. before the set i had gotten into an argument with my band mates, so i needed time to cool off." i said while reminiscing the argument from earlier.

"ohh, makes sense. well i'm glad you made it." he said smiling at me. "it's getting cold out here so i'm gonna go inside, but you're welcome to follow if you'd like."

"yeah i'll probably go inside in a bit. it's kinda boring in there."

"wowww." he said dramatically placing a hand on his chest. "well i'll see you inside then, Vivienne."

i giggle at his drama. "alright, bye Nikki."

"nice meeting you Vivienne." he says as he climbs into the window back into his apartment.

i take a drag from my cigar as i think about what just happened. "damn he was cute. i'll have to ask for his digits later." i thought to myself.
