—Sky's POV—

We were back home and Duff and I were hanging on the couch. "Don't you have a job or something?" Duff asked. "I do, but I called them the other day and my boss said that I could take a few weeks off. I can still make money through gigs." "Do you play many shows?" "To be honest, I used to play places like The Troubadour until Guns came on the rise and basically took over Sunset blvd." "Sorry" he said with guilt in his eyes. "I still have gigs so it's all good" "Maybe we can play some acoustic shows together at the whiskey or something?" "Yeah, why not? Only my guitars and shit is all still at Axl's.." "Want to pick them up?" "Right now?" "Yes" "Do you have a little?" "Yeah, of course" I wrote a letter to Axl and walked to the kitchen, I placed it on the table an went to the bathroom.

—Duff's POV—

I wanted to read the letter she wrote, but I also didn't.

I -for whatever reason- decided to read it.

Dear Axl,

How do I start saying you how I feel when I don't know how I feel. All my life I've wanted to be loved the way you loved me. We were "the best hollywood couple''. I wanted to grow old with you, start a family with you. I trusted yo and loved you with all my heart. but all of that is now gone.

Axl; just know that you are one hell of a guy. You are really passionate about everything you do. Al I wish for you right now is to live a happy life, stay positive and to do whatever the fuck you wanna do. Thanks for loving me the way you did.

From the bottom of my heart,

Yours Truly,

Sky.

It made me really sad that something like that had to be written. They really we're Hollywoods best couple. This is going to affect the whole band, the whole industry.

Sky flushed the toilet so I quickly put down the letter an grabbed a beer. I had to act as if I never read it. "You ready?" she asked "yes I am" "let's go then"

—Sky's POV—

When we arrived in the street where Axl lives and Sky got really nervous, I washed that I could do something about it, but there was nothing I could do right now. I drove into his driveway and stopped the car. "You want me to go with you?" I asked. "No, I can do this."

I walked towards the door, slightly hesitating. I knocked. The door got opened and it showed a woman, a skinny, blonde woman. I knew this girl very well. She was the popular girl at my school in Lafayette. Gina Siler. "What do you want?" she asked. "I'm here to pick up my stuff." I said. "It's okay, she can come in" I heard Axl say. I walked in and greeted Axl. "I'm here to pick up my stuff" I said to him. "It's all where you left it." He then said. I walked upstairs and got everything, I put as much as I could in my suitcase that was also still there. Gina, who probably doesn't know I know her, came in. "Do you need any help?" She asked. She was a lot friendlier that how I know her. "Yes please" I said. "Can you maybe get all my records together in this bag, that'd be nice" I said. "yeah sure." "Thanks" She got down and grabbed all the records that were stored around the floor. "Hey listen up" she says and looks at me "I'm really sorry about what happened between the two of you. You guys were the best couple of Hollywood. You guys were perfect together, you belong together." she said. I thought about what she said and I started crying. She hugged me, she really was a nice girl now. "You know Gina.." I said through the tears. "how do you know my name?" she asked. "We used to go to the same school." "oh really?" she asked. "yes" I said laughing. We were both laughing at this time, when Axl came in. "Don't be friends with that bitch" he said to Gina. "Excuse me?" she said. "You heard me" he said and pulled her away by her arm. "That hurts!" she screamed. "AXL!" I said. "Don't you realise you're hurting her?" I added. I grabbed all my bags, filled with my clothes, records, bday presents etc. and followed Axl with Gina downstairs. I got some small things from the downstairs area when Axl decided that he wanted to start a fight with me. "Are you gonna go to your Duffy now?" he asked "actually Axl, yes I am, he's waiting for me in the car." "You already had sex with him, haven't you" "maybe we have." "Slut" that was the breaking point. I hated that word, slut, that's what we call the LA girls in shorts on sunset blvd. I got really mad, but I tried to keep this fight by words and not knuckles.

—Duff's POV—

I heard someone screaming "AXL" so I decided to take a look of what was happening inside.

—Sky's POV—

"Well, you slept with me, and then kissed Shelia and now you're with Gina, who's the slut now?" I said. I knew I shouldn't have said that but I didn't really care. Axl pushed me against a wall and wanted to punch me in the face. "AXL!" I heard Duff. I turned my face and so did Axl, I managed to escape from his strong grip and ran over to Duff. "He called me a slut" I whispered to him. "Let's just go home, okay?" he said. "please, just wait in the car Duff" "Promise me, to step into the car without anything broken." "I promise" I said. Duff left the house again and Axl and I continued what we had started.  "Axl, was I not good enough?" I asked him. "You are good enough, I am not good enough." "Axl you are good enough, but I think for now...we need to let it rest." "What do you mean?" he asked. "Us, we shouldn't be together. Here, I said and gave him the letter. I'm gonna go home, to Indiana." "But..." "goodbye Axl" I said as I walked away from him. I got in the car and said "just drive, I don't wanna talk" and off we went.
