Let's gooo

Dating a rockstar was one of deepest wishes of tons of people. Being together with someone who had so much to offer and was part of something you love,music,was the best thing that could happen to you.

That was,what most of the people thought,but the sad reality was ,that you were like a living target.Sometimes you got more attention,than your partner,who was part of the publicity. And in most cases it was a true nightmare.

A nightmare was something that Y/N only knew trough dreams or horror-movies. She never connected it with love,but this was exactly her situation.Her love for Iron Maidens leadsinger,Bruce Dickinson was a nightmare,of course not caused by him,but the rest of the world.

Bruce's Maid is a druggy  ,Y/N read out the title on the newest magazine,it was an interview with an anonymus insider who supposdly knew Y/N. Over the whole page was a picture of her,holding a drink in her hand,there were absolutly no signs for an addiction. Y/N knew that this was all a lie to push her in a bad light,she knew that none of her friends,family or the band would say something like that,but it still hurted her. She pushed the magazine aside,the next one was not even better;

A sweet cheater,the singers Maid  ,read the next title,on the front page was a picture of her,together with her cousin walking down the street.

Why putting so much effort into those lies?

Why me?

Why the band?

Coudn't could she go outside without being in the news the next day?

But in addition to the magezines,there was more,whereever Y/N went,people would give her odd looks,whisper stuff behind her back,sometimes even they called after her "whore", "you are doing it for the money", "when you guys marry,do you push him off a cliff,to be a lucky and rich widow?". On concerts the crowd sometimes booed her out,when they saw her standing next to the stage,supporting her boyfriends band. And it never stopped, a lot of rockstars had made some scandals during this time,but the media only partly reported it. All eyes were laid on Y/N,watching what mistake she would do next.Everyday of every week.

Y/N woke up this morning ,trying to focus on something positive,her job for example. Y/N worked at a music store,that was also where she met the guys from Iron Maiden. The store she worked at,was the biggest in the city,so that one day, eight months ago,the band came in to buy new strings and drumsticks.It was like a joke,one of her favourite bands of all time,Iron Maiden,stood there,then came Bruce over to her. Talking to her like a totally normal costumer. Since he was the singer he didn't needed any of the stuff his bandmates were looking for.Back then,Y/N kept her attitude,she didn't wanted that her idol thaught that she was just a groupie who coudn't handle the presence of -in the end- a normal human.And exactly this normal treatment,the strong and independant behaviour of the young woman and her natural positivity made Iron Maidens singer fall in love with the employee in the Motörhead shirt.

With their first meeting in mind Y/N got ready.But her good mind was soon replaced with an aching that shocked trough her whole body. Outside of her apartment,where her car stood,was the whord "slut" in bright red sprayed.

Instictivly Y/N put her hand infront of her mouth,anger,sadness and complete helplessness crashed her mind and body in one big wave,all caused by this one word. She shook her head and looked away. Breathing through she thought about calling Bruce,may he knew what to do,or wait no. Everyone expeccted this of her,running to her boyfriend to buy her a new car or somewhat. No,Y/N didn't let them play with her. She got into her car and drove off to work.
