Kiss The Sky: A Modern Myth [Tommy Lee/Nikki Sixx AU]

If there was one thing Nikki Sixx should've known for years, it was that he couldn't trust his judgment...his rotten judgment that only led him to Blackie Lawless, to make too many mistakes, and turned him into the notoriously beautiful criminal and pathetic excuse of a man that he was today.

However, something about the sunny, young tattoo artist just felt so right. It surely wasn't his Greek god looks, it obviously wasn't the smile that managed to make Nikki forget his problems, and it definitely wasn't how he was the one person who made Nikki feel like he was worth something. Whatever it was with Tommy Lee, it was only a matter of time before Nikki's defenses failed him...

Now, if only his stupid, mysterious nightly savior never came into his life, would stop coming for him and sleeping with him, and above all, quit playing with his heart and making him feel the same things he felt for Tommy...

After all, wasn't it plain idiotic to feel something for a man whose face he never even saw?

One way or another, he knew he was making yet another mistake, and his head was screaming at him to get out of the early grave he surely dug himself into, before he was too late...

From a young age, Tommy Lee was always taught to mind his own business, and most especially not to get himself involved in dangerous gang business. It was only going to get him killed, he was told.

However, when a devastatingly beautiful and broken miscreant entered his life, he found himself abandoning these warnings. From the moment he tattooed that single character on the man's chest, he saw something in Nikki Sixx - and it was a certain something that made him throw all caution and self-preservation to the wind...

It was a foolish thing to do, but then again, he was always a hopeless romantic...

Even though he knew that to even think of crossing Blackie Lawless was more than foolish, and to actually dare play with any of Blackie Lawless' toys was basically asking for a death sentence.
