ASTERIA LEAPED EXCITEDLY INTO EASTON'S ARMS, earning a small grunt followed with a light laugh as he tightly wrapped his strong arms around her torso as her slim legs snaked around his waist as she burrowed her face into his broad shoulder.
"i missed you so much," she mumbled out into his shoulder, "oh my god, east. so much has happened-" she started, but was interrupted by a familiar voice.
"uh- astie, who is this?"
asteria whipped around to face a very confused looking duff, along with the rest of the band behind the tall blonde, looking equally as confused as him.
she let out a nervous laugh, motioning towards easton who wore a ghost of a smile. "guys, this is an. . . old friend from back home. his name is easton." then, asteria proceeded to motion to the men standing in front of the tour bus entrance. "easton, these are the members of guns n' roses. the motley boys should be around here somewhere, but i don't see them until later tonight when we get checked into our rooms."
the five disheveled men let out their own selective grumbles of greetings, while easton just simply waved as his lips formed a flat line.
"astie has never talked about you before," slash blurted out bluntly. asteria only glared at him non-discreetly, but easton only chuckled; seemingly unbothered by slash's remark.
easton nodded, "due to some personal reasons, me and her haven't been in much contact unfortunately. but that doesn't matter now, because now i can be here with her for the rest of this tour!" he cheered out, grinning brightly as he brought her into a side hug, starting to ruffle her hair up, despite the many shouts of protest from the young woman. this made the group of men laugh at the bond between the two.
"we should catch up over dinner," easton suggested to asteria, who only nodded excitedly with a large grin, gripping his wrist and leading him to her hotel room.

"WHO'S THAT SCHMUCK?" tommy found himself asking a very high steven adler while the two watched from afar as asteria laughed loudly at something easton had said. tommy's eyebrows furrowed, and steven giggled.
"you're jeaaalous~! tommy lee is jealous!" steven sang out, his voice tumbling in and out with obnoxious laughter. tommy was quick to smack steven upside his head as he rolled his eyes, "i am not jealous of that dude. if i wanted her, i would have her under my arm right this second."
steven snorted sarcastically at the over-egotistical man. "yeah okay, sure. why don't you go introduce yourself to her friend if you're such a big-shot?" he asked, raising his eyebrow quizzically, watching as tommy seemed to think for less than five seconds before scoffing and walking off towards asteria and the brunette boy who was seated right across from her in the bar booth.
"hey asteria!" tommy exclaimed cheerfully as he confidently strutted up to the booth. he motioned to the man across from her, who had an eyebrow raised out of amusement. "who is this? why haven't you introduced me to him?" he asked quickly, jealousy seeping through onto his tone.
"i'm easton schwartz, her best friend. and who are you?" easton said, holding his hand out for tommy to shake, but tommy didn't make any move to return the favor.
"tommy lee; i'm her best friend." tommy said, his glare hardening every second along with his stone cold tone, as he hoped to scare off the new brunette.
but the man just chuckled, his eyes sparkling with pure amusement. "that's not what ria here told me." easton claimed, motioning over to an emotionless asteria, who was looking at tommy, but seemed to be zoned out in thought.
tommy scoffed at the man's sassy remark, yet ignored it passively as he turned his attention to a glaring asteria. "how are you doing?" he asked the young blonde woman who was shooting figurative daggers into his skull.
asteria huffed out a breath, sneering with displeasure. "take a wild guess." she snarled, anger bubbling up in the pit of her stomach.
"come on, why can't we talk about this? you've been avoiding me ever since the fight!" tommy exclaimed, earning a scoff from the woman. "it's that obvious?" she sarcastically asked him.
"look, let's just talk about this over a drink or something later tonight after the concert, okay?" tommy pleaded. asteria's face went blank as easton smirked. "tommy, i can't tonight. . . i'm going out with easton to dinner after the concert. i'm sorry, but we can talk tomorrow or something. just not right now." she said, her voice now softened.
tommy's expression hardened as he nodded stiffly. "i see how it is. i'll see you later." he angrily said, storming off out through the entrance of the hotel bar.
easton turned to asteria, who still wore her blank expression. he smirked at her, nudging her thigh with his. "c'mon, let's grab some more drinks and then get ready. that douche ain't worth your time, ria," he said, leading her off towards the bar area to order more drinks. asteria nodded softly, but her gaze lingered on the entrance that tommy had just stormed out of.
was she making a mistake?
