Joe Elliott #1

Joe is v pure but I had this idea and I thought it fit him really well :')

"Goodnight, Y/N!" My mom called from her bedroom, and I bid her goodnight, watching for the lights to go out. As soon as they did, I practically jumped out of my bed and switched on my lamp. A twinge of guilt struck me momentarily as I grabbed a pen and a piece of paper, but I reassured myself this was legal, fair and righteous as I began to write.

Dear Mum,
I love you, but I also love Joey, and we're going on tour together, even if you already said no. I'm 21 years old and I'm not a child anymore, and I know I live under your roof but I want to start making my own life. He wants me to move in with him, and I may do that if you keep trying to lock me up.

Please don't be mad, I'll answer any calls or texts. I love you.

-Y/N.

I set the paper on my desk and went to my wardrobe to choose something to wear. I eventually decided on a Guns N' Roses shirt and some black leggings with dark red sneakers.
After running over a list of essentials about six times, I assured myself that I had anything important and that I had enough money to buy things if I'd forgotten them. I sat on my window seat nervously and waited for the light of Joe's car to illuminate my window. My phone buzzed after what felt like hours and I grinned to see his name on the screen.

Joe: Come outside now. I've got a surprise for you.

I picked up my overweight backpack and slung it over my shoulder, trying to open my window as quietly as possible. As I threw my bag out, I saw headlights pull up behind the hedge surrounding our front garden, and stepped out onto the tree branch. My legs began to shake a little as the tree moved in the breeze, but I kept edging across, until I heard a voice.

"Y/N, baby, what are you doing?"

I looked down and saw Joe, who was watching me with a look of pure disbelief on his face.

"I'm escaping." I grunted quietly as I stepped down to a lower branch.

"Just jump. I'll catch you."

"Sorry, what?"

"Jump down."

"I swear, if you don't catch me-"

I took a deep breath and fell back, although the drop must have been shorter than I realised, as I fell into Joe's arms practically instantly.

"Hello, darling."

"Hi."

"Are you ready to go?"

"I'm ready to go anywhere with you." I smiled, and Joe kissed my nose.

"By the way, that surprise I was talking about? Let me show you. I'll even carry you there." He laughed, and rotated my body a little so I was bridal style. As we walked around to the driveway, I gasped and turned to Joe, who was grinning like a madman.

"You're touring with Guns N' fucking Roses?!" I half-whispered half-yelled, and Joe nodded excitedly.
"Yeah, we are. And they're inside that van." He smiled, kissing the side of my head. I turned my head to connect our lips, and was interrupted by the van door sliding open loudly.
"Hey, are you comin' on tour or are you jus' gonna stand around kissin' your lady all night?" An unmistakeable voice called to Joe, and I turned to see the lead singer of my favourite band leaning out of the van.

"Well, I know which one I'd prefer. We're coming, Axl. Just give us a minute." Joe said, to which Axl nodded and closed the van door.
"You don't have to do this if you don't want to, Y/N. It's a lot of pressure, and I-"

"Joey, I want to. I love you, and I love what you're doing with your life and your best friends." Joe put me down and cupped my face.

"I love you too, Y/N. Come on, let's go, before you catch frostbite out here." He took my hand and led me to the van.

"You guys, this is Y/N. Y/N, you already know the guys-" Joey's bandmates smiled and waved at me, all muttering various greetings, "-and this is Guns N' Roses, but you already knew that." He laughed, and I felt my face heat up.

"Hey, nice shirt." The first to speak up was Izzy, who gave me a small salute and I grinned.

"Thanks, love yours too. They're a pretty good band." I said, gesturing to Izzy's Def Leppard shirt.

"Hey, aren't we a little better than 'pretty good'?" Joe scoffed jokingly, and I shrugged.

"I guess so." I grinned, poking Joe on the shoulder.

"You'll pay for that." He warned, and I raised an eyebrow.

"Axl Rose, at your service." Axl was next to step forward, followed by Duff, Slash, and Steven.

"Steven's pretty shy around new people, especially pretty girls." Duff joked, earning an embarrassed yet frustrated glare from Steven.

"Then why would he be shy around me?" I asked, crossing my arms and leaning back on the sofa.

"Uh, because you're literally the most beautiful girl I've ever seen, ever?" Joe piped up from the front of the bus, and I hid my smile under the blanket Axl had given me.

"Aw, you made her blush!" Slash cooed loudly, and Joe swatted him playfully.

"Shut up, dude."
