In Drummer Heaven

And I Thought I Was Done Fighting

"I've never seen any girl eat as much as you do." Tommy laughs as I bite my hamburger.

We decided since we have a day off before we start back on the road again. We decided that ordering room service and watching movies on pay per view all day was a good idea considering that if our manager catches wind of us we'd all be fired.

"I'm sorry." I say and he laughs.

"I never said it was a bad thing." He says and plays with my fingers. "All those little bimbos that follows the band around, they don't eat anything. At least I've never seen them eat."

"Maybe they're all just the undead." I say and kiss Tommy's cheek. "Or vampires."

"They want to suck the blood of all the pretty redhead drummer girls." He says and kisses my lips. "I love that you don't starve yourself."

I smile and peck his lips, I pull back and he scowls. Tommy pulls me closer to him and kisses my lips again roughly. He bites my bottom lip gently and pulls back.

"I'm taking this." He mumbles, I laugh and kiss his lips again.

"God, I love you." I say and he smiles.

"I love you too." Tommy says and kisses my cheek as the phone rings. "I bet it's your boyfriend." He laughs.

I crawl over to the cordless phone and then go back over to Tommy. I sigh and he wraps his arm around my shoulders. I hold the phone to my ear.

"Hey babe, I'm so sorry about earlier." Bret says. "That girl was just a really big mistake."

"Dani and CC say that this isn't the first time you've cheated on me." I say.

"Shit." He mumbles. "Darcy, don't be like this. You honestly believe them over me, your boyfriend?"

"Yes I do, Bret." I state. "I was told that you've been cheating on me since the week we got together."

"Bullshit! Who the hell told you that?" Bret demands.

"Or I thought poker night was an all guys thing. Tell me who was the guy you were banging in your car at the drive in?" I ask.

"You're honestly believing them?" He asks. "That's fucking great, my own fucking girlfriend doesn't trust me!"

"Of course I don't Bret! A girl answered your phone when I called you earlier!" I state. "You want to talk about not trusting people, you told me that I wasn't allowed to talk to any guys unless they were gay or fucking Nikki Sixx!"

"You're blowing this out of proportion." Bret states and I roll my eyes.

"I'm really not, Bret. You're the asshole in this because you fucked countless other girls while we were together." I say.

"We are together." He states.

"What makes you think that?" I ask with a sarcastic laugh.

"Because I'm saying this relationship isn't over." Bret states and I sigh.

"You honestly think that after this we're still going to be together?" I ask.

"Yes because you're going to come to your senses and realize that I'm the best thing to ever happen to you!" He says.

"Not even close, asshole!" I snap. "You know there's a reason that I yelled Tommy and not Bret." I state and Tommy laughs.

"You're trying to tell me that he was better at sex than I am?" Bret snaps back.

"That's exactly what I'm saying!" I nearly yell.

"You know I was the one that slipped that picture to your manager! I broke you and Tommy up!" He yells.

"You're a fucking asshole!" I yell.

"I might be a fucking asshole but I always get what I want!" Bret states. "I wanted in your pants and guess where I got?!"

"I faked every organism!" I yell and Tommy starts laughing.

"Who the hell is in there with you?!" He demands. "Fuck Darcy, I told you that you weren't allowed to take to guys, let alone fuck them. Now who's the fucking whore!"

"Must be sexually transmitted, asshole!" I snap.

"You're such a bitch!" Bret snaps.

"I know, I have a fucking crown. It's just at the fucking bank in a lock box!" I scream.

"When you're ready to have an adult conversation call me!" He snaps.

"I'm not going to fucking call you!" I state.

"End of discussion." Bret states.

"End of relationship!" I snap and end the call.

I sigh and lay back on the bed. Tommy lays down beside me and laces his fingers through mine. I lean my head against his shoulder and I feel him kiss my hair.

"That asshole is the reason we had to break up." I say quietly. "Bret slipped the picture of us kissing to our manager."

"I'll kill him." Tommy mumbles. "I'm going to kill Bret fucking Michaels because I lost months with the girl I love and I had to watch the asshole date my Darcy and kiss my Darcy and--"

"Your Darcy?" I ask with a laugh and his wide grin crosses his face. "Possessive are we, T-Bone?"

"Yeah babe, you're mine." Tommy says and kisses my hand. "I love you, Darcy Nicole Killinbeck. I should've told you sooner."

I smile and peck his lips gently.

"And I love you, Tommy fucking Lee." I say with a laugh and Tommy laughs.

"Did you really fake every organism?" He asks with a laugh. "Am I really better than him?" He wonders and kisses my cheek.

"Yes and yes." I say and he grins.

"Good." Tommy says and kisses my nose.

We finish eating then watch a couple more movies then Tommy sees the time. He frowns and forces a smile.

"Nikki, Vince, and Mick are gonna think I died or something." He admits. "I should go back to my room before they go looking for me." I frown and he kisses my lips. "Don't be like that, babe."

"It's not just you leaving, babe. No one can know we're together or we will get fired." I remind him and he frowns.

"It'll be hard but we'll find a way." Tommy promises me as we walk towards the door.

He picks up my face and kisses me sweetly and gently. He pulls back and kisses my nose and forehead.

"I love you." Tommy tells me and I smile.

"I love you too." I say.

"I'll see you on the rider tomorrow. I'll try not to kiss you if everyone is around." He adds with a laugh as he leaves me room.

I lay back down in bed and I sigh happily. I think I'm finally done fighting.
