The First Punch

As I lay on the floor of the back lounge, the happenings of last night come back to me and I am reluctant to see if Tony is awake. I think of what I could do or say to him if he happened to be awake. I could say something like ‘don’t tell anyone this happened’ or ‘can we keep this on the down low’ but what I really want to say to him is ‘I’ve been waiting for this moment, and I’m so happy that we did this’ but I might just say ‘good morning’ and smile.
I reluctantly pull my eyes off of the ceiling to Tony, who was sleeping peacefully. I sit up and look around the room for my clothes. I move to the couch where my underwear is and I slide them on. Then to across the room and put my bra and tank top back on.
Tony starts to stir and I watch him as his eyes open and a smile appears on his face.
“Good morning gorgeous.” Tony said not breaking the smile on his face.
I nervously bit my lip and then smiled, “Hi!”
Tony pulled on his underwear and his shorts. And stood up coming towards me, he opened his ams for me to give him a hug. I quickly made my way into his arms. I felt safe here. His muscular arms make me feel like no one can hurt me, even though I’ve been hurt so much in the past.
“Is anyone else up? What time is it?” Tony asked.
I broke away from his embrace and went to unlock the door to the back lounge. I poked my head out of the door to see all of the guys passed out on the couch and Jamie was on the floor. I squinted my eyes to try and see what the clock said at the other end of the bus. It said it was 9:40. I put my head back into the lounge and shut the door behind me.
“They’re all passed out on the couch, and Jaime is on the floor.. Oh and it’s 9:40” I explained walking over to the black couch to grab my jeans from the cushion. I slid them on, buttoned, and zipped them. Tony nodded and went to find his shirt and to put it on.
“So Tone.. I have a question for you..”
“Shoot”
“So you know how Mike and I just broke up a day or so ago?”
“Yeah, why?” he nodded
“Well I was just wondering if it was like bad if uh- we were a thing.”
“You really feel that way about me, Axl? Honestly?” I nodded while biting my lip “Well I feel that way too!” Tony said enthusiastically
“Tony are you being serious? Ever since Mike and I have been arguing a lot I’ve realized what a great person you are to have in my life!” I exclaimed.
“So do you want to be together Axl?”
“I mean why the hell not?! I really couldn’t give a shit about what Mike thinks.”
“Axl this is great!” Tony pulled me into a hug.
“But Tone, can we just keep this quiet from the fans and everyone, I just don’t want them to think of me as a slut or something, you know going from Mike to you in like a day… Tony I couldn’t deal with that.” I said with a shaky voice.
Tony put my head in his hands and brought his lips to mine. When he pulled away he said in a reassuring voice, “Anything you want beautiful.”.
He pulled me closer to him and wrapped his arms around me.
“Should we get something to eat? I’m starving!” Tony exclaimed breaking out of our hug.
I laughed, “Sure!”
I opened the door and walked out leaving Tony in the back lounge. I made my way to the kitchen area and started a pot of coffee. I heard the door to the back lounge shut and I looked over to see Tony walking through the bunk hall. I felt a smile appear on my face. He sat on the couch next to Vic who was passed out leaning on Mike’s shoulder who’s feet were on Jaime’s back. None of the guys even moved when Tony got back up and scurried over to the door to look at the sheet that tells them when and where they play today.
He turned around quickly and looked at me with an urgent look on his face.
“Axl we go on at 11 at the main stage! We need to get the guys up! Shit its like almost 10, we need to eat and sound check. Why has no one came to our bus to get us?!” Tony rushed.
“Just calm down Tone, and get everyone up.” I said in a reassuring voice.
He walked over to Jaime and gently poked his head, he didn’t move. Then Tony tried to wake him up by saying his name.. that didn’t work. So Tony screamed Jaime’s name which made him jump, which then made Mike jump, and same with Vic.
I started to laugh as all the guys complained about how early it was and how badly their heads hurt.
Jaime then got up rubbing his head looking at the clock. He squinted his eyes and asked what time we were going on.
Tony looked at him wide-eyed, “11.. We go on at 11 Jaime.”
“Shit its like 10ish right now! We only have like an hour…”
“So we can drink our coffee quick, eat a little something and go to our stage.” I said calmly.
“The main stage?” Vic asked.
“Yeah” Mike said looking at the sheet by the door.
He turned around and shot me a look before going to the bunk hall to get clothes to change into.
“Woah… Last night you and Mike sure got into it huh!?” Jaime said looking at me with a slight smile on his face.
“Yeah, I guess. He was just being an asshole that deserved to be hit. He such an annoying little fuck! AGH!!” I put my hands on my face to cover it.
“So who wants coffee?” Tony asked
Jaime and Vic raised their hands and Mike came into the room.
“Are we like taking an oath or some shit? All of you have your hands raised.” Mike said in what was supposed to be something funny but was just plain dumb.
“Me too please” I ignored Mike and said to Tony
Tony looked to Mike, “Coffee?”
“Nah man I’m all set” Mike said grabbing some whiskey off of the shelf and walking out of the bus.
“What the fuck dude?” Vic said running after him off the bus.
I watched as Vic flew out of the bus. Why’d Mike have to be so ignorant?
Tony then started pouring the coffee into 4 cups. Jaime, Tony, and I all made our coffee the way we liked it and moved over to the window to watch what was going on with Vic and Mike.
Mike was downing whiskey like it was nothing. Then Vic grabbed his arm and pulled the alcohol out of his hand. Vic then proceeded to dump out the bottle onto the ground. I saw Mike throw his hands up in the air and start to yell. I could just barley hear him yelling at Vic to ‘fuck off’ and to 'get the fuck away from him'.
I saw Vic motion for him to get back on the bus and to grow up. Mike apprehensively went towards the door to the bus. Vic followed him and they both made their way back onto the bus.
Mike looked directly at me and asked, “So… How was Tony you whore?” He said this with a slight smile on his face which was the same smile my dad used to make just before he would hit me or insult me. I cringed.
“Back up dude, you have no right to call her a whore… Especially when you cheated on her!” Tony went toward Mike.
“Oh yeah? Tone how can you sleep with someone as ugly and fat as her?”
“You’re just saying that cause you’re jealous of me! You wish you could have her! But you can’t.. you fucked that up… she’s mine now.. at least we all know I’ll take better care of her than you ever did. And what the fuck Mike she is not fat nor is she ugly! Are you fucking blind?!” Tony spat.
“Guys… we don’t have much time now… Let’s all just drink our coffee and get dressed.” Jaime suggested.
Vic nodded his head and Tony shook his head walking away from Mike and heading into the bunks.
