In Drummer Heaven

Pretty Pool Hustlers

It's weird being in the same recording studio as my boyfriend and have to pretend they we're not dating. That just makes it even more irritating for our friends once we get out of the studio.

Anyways Tommy and I are sitting in he living room of mine and the girls' house. Well the tv was playing but neither of us were paying all the much attention to it. I mean we weren't doing anything that would scar anyone of life, like Rose and Jadie are asleep in their rooms.  Tommy and I are just kissing.

The front door gets busted open but Tommy and I don't pull apart. I hear someone groan and I feel Tommy smirk against my lips. His arm loops around my waist and pulls me up onto his lap.

"Jesus T-Bone." CC starts. "Her room is just upstairs."

Tommy laughs and pulls away. Dani and CC stand in the doorway.

"Yeah but we can't gross people out in her room." My boyfriend laughs and wraps his arms around me.

"Where's Rosie and Jadie?" Dani wonders.

"Asleep." I say and Tommy nuzzles into my neck.

"Asleep?" She asks and I nod.

"Yeah, I mean I just woke up." I say and she laughs.

"We should go back to bed." Tommy mumbles and gently kisses my neck.

"Well we're meeting everyone at the bar." Dani says. "Wakey, wakey, eggs and backy." She yells and I roll my eyes.

There's some thumps, hushed cussing, and loud footsteps. Jade and Rose appear at the top of the stairs.

"What the hell do you want?" Rose wonders.

"I'm vegetarian." Jade mumbles and I laugh.

"Wakey, wakey, vegetables and sadness." I joke and she smiles.

"Come on, we're meeting everyone at the bar." Dani tells them.

"I guess Tommy and Darcy will be on time this time." CC laughs and I roll my eyes.

"We could be late if you wanted us to be." Tommy says and CC scrunches up his face.

Eventually we all head down to the bar. Tommy and I walk together and bump into each other. My boyfriend is taller and stronger than me so when he bumps me I bounce off him. Tommy keeps me tethered by my hand.

Nikki, Vince, Mick, Bret, Bobby, and Rikki are already at the bar waiting for us. Poison is drinking and playing cards at a table while Crüe drinks and shoots pool. Tommy pulls me over to the pool table and wraps his arm around my shoulders.

Through the corse of the night we all rotate through shooting pool and playing poker while pushing the limits if alcohol tolerances.

Darcy and I shoot pool with Bret and Vince. When Darcy isn't shooting my arm is wrapped around her shoulders while glaring at Bret.

I really don't like how Bret looks at my girlfriend. I mean he looks at her like he wants to jump her or something. I'm sorry but Darcy is my girlfriend and Bret isn't getting close to her if I have anything to say about it. I've talked to him about it but he just brushes me off like I'm joking or something.

I do honestly think he has a thing for Darcy. I mean she's hotter than all hell but she's mine. I don't share well especially when it comes to someone I care about. Yeah, I mean I screw around a lot and I'm not always the most mature but when it comes to Darcy....everything is real. I mean I know that this isn't some fling or a girl I'm gonna drop in a couple weeks. If I've ever had a chance with love or having a real relationship, Darcy is the best I've got.

"Tommy?" My girlfriend's voice pulls me out of my thoughts.

Darcy looks up at me with worried blue eyes and I smile. I bend down and kiss her lips, I hear Vince and Bret groan.

"Look man, she was just gonna tell you that it was your shot." Bret complains and I pulls away.

"Oops." I say and look deep into her eyes, Darcy smiles at me.

I take my shot then wrap my arms around Darcy again. I kiss behind her ear and tighten my grip around her.

"What do you say, babe?" I whisper in her ear. "After this game want to get out of here?"

She turns around in my grasp and smiles at me. Darcy moves my sunglasses from my eyes and puts them in my hair. She always say how much she loves my eyes and she doesn't understand why I insist on wear sunglasses at night. To be completely honest now I do it just to bother her. Darcy then wraps her arms around my neck and goes up on her toes to kiss me.

"Ahh come on, guys." Vince complains.

"I mean could we at least finish the game first?" Bret wonders.

Darcy goes back down flat footed and smiles at me.

"Yeah." She says quietly and turns back to the game.

We play the game through and somehow Darcy managed to beat all of us. For the record that didn't sit well with Vince and demanded a rematch. Darcy is insanely competitive so she agrees.

"Hold this for a second." I tell Tommy and hand him my pool cue. "I'm going to get more to drink, want anything." I ask Tommy, Vince, and Bret.

"Yeah, beer?" Vince asks and I nod.

"Me too, babe." Tommy says and kisses my cheek.

"I'll help you carry." Bret says and I nod.

We walk up to the bar and order. I lean against the bar and Bret smiles.

"Hoe did you get so good at pool?" He wonders and I shrug.

"Natural talent, I guess. I mean I was always beating Jade and Ro, the only one to ever give a me a run for my money was Jewl." I explain. "We were seventeen and sneaking into bars to hustle pool to get extra money."

"You were able to hustle pool?" Bret asks and I nod.

"No one ever believes that two little girls are good at pool." I say. "It beats hooking." I joke and he laughs.

"I feel like you could've been successful at that." He says. "I mean your hot, Tommy's lucky."

"Uh, thanks." I say as the beers come.

Was Bret hitting on me?

I grab two as does Bret and we walk back over to the pool table. I hand one off to Tommy and he wraps his arm possessively around me and kisses my temple. I smile and wrap my arms around his chest.

I don't care if Bret was hitting on me, I only want my Tommy.
