I got out of my house with my suitcase full of random clothes and see a big truck in front of Guns' house. Ok weird.

Izzy is by the front door and I go to his encounter.

"Hey Izz" I great him. "What is this all about?" I ask him, landing my suitcase on the pavement.

"Axl bought a piano." He replies, shrugging his shoulders.

"Wow, fancy." He nods and leans against the door frame. "Look, I'm gonna put my suitcase on Slash's room and after that I wanna show you something." I say, heading upstairs. "Meet you in the basement."

I enter in Slash's room and it's empty. I land the suitcase beside the closet door and leave the room walking downstairs.

I step inside the basement and I see Izzy sat down on the couch, smoking a cigarette, and Axl is sat by a big piano, playing a nice melody.
"Hi guys" I say as I take a seat beside Izzy.

"Hi." Izzy grins and Axl stops playing and turns around to face us.

"Hi Sheena" he says and I wave.

"So, what did you wanna show me?" Izzy asks before taking a drag from his cigarette.

"Do you remember that I said I would help you on the last song? Well, I did it." I say, smiling proundly. I really liked how it turned out. I finished it today when I went to pick up more clothes.

"Show us then" Izzy says, handing me an acoustic guitar. I'm kinda nervous because I never sang in front of people before.

"I didn't compose a new song. I just took one from Appetite and changed it a bit." I say and I start playing. After playing some chords making a nice rhythm, I start signing.

"I've been looking for a trace
Looking for a heart
Looking for a lover
In a world that's much too dark
You don't want my love
You want satisfaction, oh yeah" I sing in a kind of different way that is sang on appetite. I make a little break and Axl sings the next part.

"You don't need my love
You gotta find yourself another piece of the action, yeah"

We sing along together and when we finish I start glaring the pair, nervous to know what they think about it.

"So..." I say playing with my fingers. I generally do that when I'm nervous.

"Sheena...." Axl starts quietly. "That was fucking amazing!!!!" He almost yells and I sight in relief. "We are definitely gonna be using it." I turn my gaze to Izzy and he nods in agreement.

"Seriously?" I ask surprised.

"Yep. And I don't care if the others don't like. But of course, they're gonna love it." I'm really happy I've had done something good and someone liked it. This doesn't happen usually. Axl turns to Izzy. "Now Izzy, fuck off." He demands.

"Why?" Izzy groans.

"Because I need some privacy with Sheena." He says, giving Izzy a look that can almost kill. Izzy sets up groaning and disappears. Problably Axl wants some privacy because of the song.

He looks at me with a smirking on his face and patts the free spot on the big bench where he's sat down. I obey and sit where he told me to.

"Nice piano you have here." I say, admiring the majestic instrument.

"Yes, it is and we are gonna play it." He says.

"But I don't now how to play the piano." I protest.

"I teach you." He starts playing. His fingertips touch the piano keys so softly and in harmony. "All you have to do is this." I watch his hand carefully and do as he says. "See, it's not difficult. Keep going, sweetheart." I do as he says and he starts playing too. Our hands play in sync making a beautiful melody. It's really cool. "I was thinking, we could use this on the song..."

"Yeah, that will fit perfectly." I say, not taking my eyes out of the piano keys and watching my hands moving independently.

"Ok, let's go then." And a second later, Axl starts singing. "When I look into your eyes
I can see a love restrained"

"But, darlin', when I hold you
Don't you know I feel the same?" I sing.

Two hours later and with the basement full of papers scratched and wrinkled we finished the song. I can say that it's a beautiful song. It's really nice. I love it. I'm in love with the song.

"It went pretty well." I comment.

"Yeah, it's beautiful. But I couldn't had done it without you." He says with a smile and I smile back.

A/N: It's fucking short, I know BUT I'll compensate you later. I promise the next one it will be waayyyyy better. Or maybe not. But I hope it will.

One more thing. Do you remember that new story I told you about? Yeah, that's right. I'm really enjoying writing it, and I was thinking and if I put the 1st chapter, just the 1st one, here just to see what do you think about it? I really don't know thought. Tell me what do you think about it and stuff.

I'm really sorry for the short chapter. Maybe I'll update again tomorrow or something. At least I'll try.

Vote, comment and be happy ^-^
