"RAVEN!" a voice yells in her ear. "WAKE YOUR DUMBASS UP!"
"fuck off, duff," she groans, rolling over and burying her face into her pillow. she was too tired for this shit.
"I'm not duff. fuck you."
"you wish," she muttered, finally sitting up to see slash standing above her in plaid pajama pants, shirtless while his silver hoops caught the light. he stares back, an obvious lack of energy and pure exhaustion present on his face. "oh," she says plainly, taking in how hoarse her voice is from the previous night of crying.
"yeah," he blinks. "now can you get the fuck up so we can leave."
she narrows her eyes, sitting up on her elbows. she scowls back, "you have literally no room to talk. you're in pajama pants and you're half-naked. you walk outside your either gonna get harassed by an old woman or arrested for public indecency, you dumb fuck."
"woah now," he raises his eyebrows, stepping back as raven climbs out of the bed and walks over to her bag. "it's 6 am, a little early to call someone a dumb fuck, don't you think?"
"never too early to call you a dumb fuck, saul," she smiles sarcastically at him, face still swollen. she pulls out the outfit she planned in her head before turning back and continuing. "besides, you woke me up by calling me a dumbass so you deserve to be called a dumb fuck."
"alright," he sighs, not having the stamina to continue the argument. "just hurry up and get dressed, we're about to leave," he tells her, rubbing his face and walking out.
raven sighed and pulled on a pair of navy cuffed sweatpants with an 86 on the right back pocket with a white ribbed tank top. she tossed her hair up into a messy bun, slipped on her blazers, and brushed her teeth quickly. grabbing her last couple of things and putting them in her bag, she rushed out the door and to the elevator which she, unfortunately, had to share the trip down with slash on.
as the two made their way to their respective tour buses, they found all three drivers talking outside of the Demonia tour bus. "can we go to mcdonalds? I really want some hashbrowns, please," raven pleaded to their driver. the old man had a sweet spot for the girl for some odd reason.
"yeah, sure. is that fine with y'all?" he asked the other two drivers who just nodded. until one of them didn't. "I'm not sure if Motley Crue should be trusted at a mcdonalds," he shook his head.
"we can lock the doors and I can bring them food when we leave?" she suggested.
"that works," he nodded.
after about an hour on the road, the bus slowed and veered off to an exit. raven had been sitting by the window with her book. it had been raining most of the day and the cool air of the bus had almost felt like a dream for her. she placed the old led zeppelin concert ticket in 'the black tulip' and watched the light rain patter against the window.
a mcdonalds came into view and she slid the book across the table so she could stand up and pull on her navy jacket. flora came out of the bunks dressed in some baggy jeans and a big flannel with her converse.
ozzy stumbled out shortly after with dark rings under his eyes. he was still in pajama pants and he had a black zip-up on with his blazers as well. he followed the girls out of the bus where they met up with the guys.
slash had not changed his clothes since earlier, just a black zip-up as well although his was undone. axl was in some shorts and a hoodie with his hat and sunglasses although it was sprinkling and thundering and lightning. steven was also in pajama pants but with a white t-shirt and duff was still in his black jeans with some band t-shirt.
the group of eight walked towards the building but raven turned back to glance at the motley bus, which was parked right behind theirs. tommy was looking awful pitiful with his face pressed against the window. so raven waved with a fake smile which was a lot considering how shitty her mood was today.
for starters, she had to get up at six in the morning. not to mention she was woken up with a screaming in her ear calling her a dumbass. then, she didn't have time to take a shower so she felt sticky and gross. she had barely gotten four hours of sleep so she was exhausted. her face was still swollen and sore from the crying she'd done. she wanted out of this wretched state because the air made her feel sick. she was paranoid her mother was going to pop up out of nowhere. not to mention she missed her cats. at least it was raining and she was in comfy clothes.
"do you know what you want?" ozzy asked his sister, knowing how she was about ordering for her.
"just a hashbrown," she mumbled, fiddling with her rings. ozzy quirked a brow but went to order for them anyway. duff and slash were ordering for the guns and Motley so that left raven, steven, izzy, axl, and flora to congregate.
raven pulled flora aside, guessing she should tell her about what happened last night. "so I had a panic attack last night," she started.
raven immediately had her full attention. "why didn't you come to my room? or call me?"
"well I tried, I got to the door I felt like I was gonna fall," she started, sighing before finishing. "I had one hand on the doorframe, the other on the handle and I was trying to stand but my knees were about to buckle and slash opened his door and helped me back in my room, and then he calmed me down the same way he would when he was like 13," she ranted.
floras jaw was on the floor. "your joking."
raven shook her head. "no and I was like well fucking hell but at the same time I couldn't do anything because I needed help and he was there."
"well shit man, what-"
"hey, we got the food," ozzy called the girls back. their conversation was cut short as they walked back to the bus.
duff handed raven the bag of food for Motley Crue and they all watched as she walked up to their tour bus. the door immediately opened and nikki stepped out in all his glory, dressed in leather pants and a tank top.
they watched as he smiled and obviously flirted with raven as she laughed and blushed. duffs head tilted to the side a bit as he watched and slash had a scowl that rivaled the intensity of ravens, at this point.
finally, she handed nikki the bag of food, he hugged her and kissed her cheek before retreating into the tour bus. when she turned around to find the gang of idiots all staring at her, she raised her arms in confusion. "what?"
