Marigold (A Nirvana Fan fiction)

Dave's First Concert

Seattle, WA
June 20th 1990

Dave's POV

I was sitting back stage it was getting close to seven. I could hear the crowd screaming and yelling. I was nervous and Y/n was no where in site. "Come on Dave!" Krist yelled about to walk on stage. I followed them on the stage. I was nervous and excited at the same time. Mostly nervous. I sat down at my drum kit.

"Uhm, excuse me." Kurt said into the mic. The crowd became quiet. "We have a new drummer." Kurt said pointing to me. I look out into the cheering crowd. "And we also have a special guest." Kurt says then Y/n walks on stage. I look at her, she had a guitar on her and she was looking at Kurt. The crowd roared with excitement.

Then Y/n smiled. Oh that smile, it brought me to life. I know it sounds weird but it was true. "DAVE!" Kurt yelled at me and I snapped out of my thoughts. "Yeah?" I ask. "Pay attention." Kurt said. The reason why Y/n was playing guitar was because Kurt had broke his arm.

I couldn't keep my eyes off her. She was so perfect. I know, I sound crazy right now but.... She is outstanding. I shook the thought off and continued to play.

After The Concert

I was tired. So was everyone else. I was sitting on the small couch backstage. Kurt and Krist came. "Hey." I said. Kurt nodded and sat down next to me. "Y/n is getting the van ready." Krist said and I just nodded. Y/n came. "Guys, the van is ready." She said. We all got up and followed her to the van. It was Krist's turn to drive. Kurt, Y/n and I sat in the back. Y/n in between both of us.

1 Hour Later

Eleven o'clock. I was still up. Kurt and Krist were sleeping. I got out of the small bunk bed and walked over to Y/n's room. I knocked on the door. "Come in." She said and I quietly stepped in. She looked up at me and smiled. "Hi Dave." She said. "Hey, I can't sleep." I said scratching the back of my neck. "Me too, come sit." She said patting the spot in front of her.

I walked over to her small bed and sat in front of her. I looked at her beautiful e/c (eye color) eyes. She looked up from her piece of paper to meet my brown eyes. We stayed staring at eatch others eyes for what felt like forever. "So... Why can't you sleep?" She asked me. I shrugged. "You?" I ask her. She shrugged also. "So, you play guitar." I said more like a statement than a question and she nodded.

Then the unthinkable happened she leaned in and kissed me, I was shocked but happy at the same time. But of course I kissed back. It was great I felt like we were the only people on this whole planet.

Your POV

You were 23 and jobless. Nirvana had moved on from your life and became WAY more popular. You had found about Kurt doing drugs and you two got in this big argument.

Here is how it went:

"Really Kurt?" You ask picking up the needle on the ground. "I swear Y/n don't tell Krist or Dave." He said looking at you. "BULLSHIT! YOU EXPECT ME NOT TO TELL THEM?!" You yell at him. "You know, Y/n I thought I could trust you." Kurt said snatching the needle from you. "I thought I could trust you too, but you're going to get clean for all of us." You say looking him dead in the eyes. "GET OUT!" Kurt yelled pointing to the door. At this point Krist and Dave were watching and tears were streaming down your face. Tears were on the breaking point of falling out of Kurts eyes. "If thats what you want." You say turning on your heel and walking out without any of your belongings.

You were sitting on the busy street of LA with nothing to do. 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' had just been relised and it was a smashing hit after two days. You were proud of them, of course but you also missed them dearly. Suddenly a bunch of lights flashing happened. You stood up and looked across the street. It was them. You ran over to them trying to get through the fans and the paparazzi. Once you final made it to the front. You locked eyes with Kurt.

"Y/n?"
