Hell on High Heels

When I hear the first guitar chords of a familiar song, I turn around and see Mick standing on stage, getting ready for the sound check.

Janet, my best friend, Mick’s girlfriend and the person I just had a conversation with, excuses herself and walks towards her boyfriend. I decide to grab a drink and while I walk to the bar, the bartender greets me.

‘Me’, in this case, is Chelsea Wilson, a student at the School for Fashion and Performing Arts in Los Angeles and hoping to be a professional fashion designer one day. I work at The Rainbow Bar&Grill as a waitress.

Even though today is my day off, I still came to my work today, to watch Mötley Crüe who’ll be performing today.

The Mick guy I just greeted is Mick Mars, a good friend of mine and the guitarist of the band. I’m pretty close to the other band members.

I once dated the drummer Tommy Lee but we realized we acted more like friends, so we decided in the end to just be friends instead of a couple.

I smile when he comes running towards me yelling my name, loud and hyper as always. I give him a hug when I see another guy standing in the doorway.

“Checking out Nikki again?” Janet asks with a grin.

“Shut up, before Tommy and Mick hear it,” I hiss with a blush.

She ‘s the only one who knows a have a crush on Nikki Sixx, the bassist and I like to keep it that way. I never show it to Nikki though, I always pretend that I feel nothing more for him than friendship.

I know he doesn’t like me like that anyway, he only just broke up with his ex Lita Ford a week ago and I don’t think he’s completely over her yet. Besides, Lita is a good friend of mine and I don’t want to risk friendships over a little crush.

After the show I search for the guys. Vince is standing in the corner talking to three girls I don’t know, Mick and Janet are making out in another one and Tommy and Nikki are standing next to the bar, obviously not sober anymore.

I decide to hang out for a while because it’s just amusing to talk with a completely wasted Tommy.

After a while Janet shows up, rolling her eyes when she notices that I’m checking Nikki out. Unlike her, he’s so wasted that he doesn’t even notice.

‘Seriously girl, you’ve got two options: tell him or get over your crush. You’re driving yourself mad."

"Easy for you to say,” I mumble.

Unlike her, I never have that much luck with guys. The guys I tend to like are either gay, already have a girlfriend or are simply not interested. I know I’m a bit whiney now but it just sucks.

“He’s single, he’s over Lita, Lita is over him and believe me, I’ve seen him checking you out tons of times, you just didn’t notice.”

I look up. “You’ve never told me that before. Well, I’m telling you now, so stop being so shy around him.”

I sigh and decide to grab another bottle of beer. Before I know it, I bump into Nikki.

“Oh sorry dude. It’s ok babe. Want a drink? yeah, I was just going to get one, so thanks. No thanks,” he said, giving me his sexy smile.
