Thorns In The Heart

Chapter 3

Slash taking Christen on tour? That was unbelievable! Christen wasn't even that excited for it! She knew she was going with her favorite band but she over worried what may happen. Her thoughts made her be quiet and Slash looked down concerned with her. He elbowed her shoulder lightly than said "Something wrong?" . Her head raised up looking at Slash. She was really small compared to Slash. Being 5'4 and 115 pounds was a big deal for Christen! Her head slowly shook answering his question. It was hard to believe she was okay. The shadow around her eyes,the shyness she had, and the fact it looked like she would cry. She didn't feel tears on the outside but she did on the inside. They finally arrived to a big building which was the arena the band was performing at. Slash took her to the tour bus where the rest of the gang was. First thing she saw on the bus was Axl who was with some girl. Everyone who was on the bus eyed Christen almost like she was an intruder. Duff stood up walking over to her with a smirk on his lips and whistled "Well well well who's this pretty thing?" Slash slowly pulled her over to his side protecting her when Duff came over. "Duff this is Christen,Christen this is Duff." Before anyone said Christen's name she quickly blurted out "I prefer being Chris!" Steven chuckled at the girl thinking she was cute while Slash growled at him. Everyone knew that Slash was obviously into Christen from the way he was acting. Normally if Slash was only using the girl he'd just let her do what she wants and not care if the band members are flirting with her. Slash looked at everyone than continued to speak "I decided to add her to the crew because where shes working now is to dumpy for someone good like her" Axl quickly gave Slash a dirty look before responding " Shes going on tour with us?". Christen bit her bottom lip getting nervous from the way everyone was acting.Steven drinking in the corner,Duff checking her out, Izzy  just smoking examining her looks,Axl's tone in voice when he asked,and the way Slash just met her acting as if they were close friends. Christen played with the sleeves of her jacket "If I'm to much of a problem I'll just go." her voice softened. Everyone quickly started saying no except for Izzy.  He wasn't talk active. Similar to Christen herself. The girl who was with Axl stood up pulling her short red dress down before going over to Christen. She came stroking Christen's hair and said "We better get you dolled up before the show because this is a new life and new life means a new style" she took Christen heading to the back of the tour bus getting out a huge kit full of makeup,cloths,and shoes. "Did I tell you my name?" the woman asked.Christen awkwardly smiled shaking her head. "Well in that case the name is Ramona I'm Axl's girlfriend" she said while brushing Christen's hair up pulling it back. "I can tell your a shy one from the look you give people with those eyes" she chuckled. "Is that a bad thing?" Chris asked watching Ramona applied some makeup on her face. Ramona grinned shaking her head "No but you should at least try talking more. On this tour there involves plenty of talking!" Christen nodded taking the girls advice "Ramona?" she questioned in her soft voice and Ramona responded back "Yes?". Christen started to laugh "Could I at least not wear a dress to the concert?". Ramona's red lips almost had a frown shaking her head "You gotta look good for the first night." Christen groaned "But Ramona-" she got cut off with Ramona saying "No buts! Now lets finish you up!"
