Duffs POV (January 11th, 1987)
i barely remember last night, usually when that happens I've downed so many bottles of vodka I loose count.  if only she were mine, maybe I wouldn't feel the need to drink every night and wake up unconscious.

I guess i should get up and see what the guys are doing.

as usual.. Slash is coming up with new riffs, Steven and Izzy are goofing off and telling  jokes that only each other is laughing at, and Axl.. he's still asleep, he must've partied too hard last night.

i know I can't do my best friend like this, but she's just so beautiful.
she is the most beautiful girl I've ever seen. if only I had gotten to her first, before Axl.

Her name is Alicia Davis. her eyes are  light green, her hair is so dark and pretty, and her smile could light up an entire room. she isn't one of those girls most guys in bands go after.. she's respectable, not the slutty kind. maybe that's why she's different from all the rest.

The only person who knows how much I like her is Slash, that's because I trust him with my life and I know he'd never tell Axl. I mean I really couldn't stop myself from telling him considering I had way too many shots of tequila, on top of all the vodka I drink on a daily basis.

man I need a smoke. "Slash come smoke with me."

"man I'm working on this new riff though, can you give me a few minutes?"

"No slash.. I'm not sure if you're hearing me correctly. come smoke with me!"

"okay, okay man I'm coming."

"I can't stop thinking about her man." I say as I inhale my first smoke of the day. "Dude, you're gonna have to figure out someway to stop, because you know damn well that Axl will beat your ass and he won't think twice."

"I'm gonna talk to her I have to. She seriously kissed me and just left me hanging who does that?"

"Hot chicks, that's who. teases." Slash says as he rolls his eyes.

I put on some nice clothes, or at least clothes I think I look good in. I put on a Ramones shirt, black jeans, boots, and fluff my hair up in the mirror a bit.

well here goes nothing Duff. I don't think I've ever been this anxious in my life.
