Imani and I are walking to the adress Samual gave us, in our matching platform boots. Imani is wearing a yellow jumpsuit that looks great with her dark skintone and a long fluffy coat. I'm wearing a blue dress and a big leather jacket.

When we've met up with Sam just outside the pub we have to wait in line for a bit.

He's passionatly talking about the live music of tonight

"I've seen these people perform once before and I'm actually a big fan. I might ask one of them for an autograph or something".

Imani pulls on his sleeve

"You're totally fangirling!"

She teases.

Sam puts his hands in his pockets

"No... I just enjoy good music!".

I bounce up and down in the chilly evening air and Sam puts his arm around me to rub my shoulder

"Brrr I hope we get to go inside soon".

And we do.

We walk in and are hit with a wave of warmth, chatter and music.

We first go to the bar and Sam orders beers for us. Imani leans over the counter

"Actually can you make one of those beers an Alabama Slammer... thankyou!".

She gives me a look

"I hate beer".

I chuckle.

The music changes to Let's Dance by Bowie and Imani cheers. She pulls Sam and me to the dancefloor, I'm a little awkward because not a lot of people are dancing. But Imani's energy makes me feel more at ease. We dance with our drinks in hand, until the lights dim and someone walks up on the stage-area to introduce tonight's artist.

Sam shushes us

"The band is starting!".

I almost drop my pint when I see what I should've realized way sooner was a possibility.

My guys, as in Slash, Izzy, Duff, Steven and Axl are walking on stage and setting up their equipment.

The bar venue is getting more and more crowded as the guests are standing up and walking to the dancefloor in front if the stage.

Sam, Imani and me are getting pushed to the back as Slash strikes his first chord.

"Wow the place is suddenly packed!"

Sam yells over the music

"They must've grown in popularity".

Imani finally notices my shocked expression and asks me what's up.

"Those are... my friends... my roommates... the band I told you about"

I stutter, staring at the stage.

Imani claps her hand over her mouth

"No way!"

"Yes way!"

"Oh my god!"

She squeals

"And which two did you fuck again?".

Sam almost breaks his neck turning to us

"What? What does she mean? You know these guys?!".

I laugh and feel my face getting red. I don't answer Sam and point out Slash and Axl to Imani.

She pushes out her lips and nods in approval

"Goddamn, get it girl".

I laugh and try to avoid Sam's burning questions by moving into the crowd.

When I'm surrounded by people, with Imani and Sam right behind me, I start to dance and jump to the music.

They're playing a song I've heard before.

"I'm on a nighttrain!

Bottoms up

I'm on a nighttrain

Fill my cup

I'm on a nighttrain

Ready to crash and burn, I never learn!"

Sam sees me singing along and he gets even more curious but when I grabs his hand he let's it all go and dances with me.

The audience is roaring and bouncing and the energy is amazing.

It's hard to see the guys with all these people in front of me but I don't mind as long as I hear the music. Imani seems to think something different because she leans over and asks

"Did they notice you're here yet?"

I shake my head.

"Well they should!"

She grabs me and pulls me forward.

"No- Imani, we don't need to..."

But then I'm at the edge of the stage. I look up and see a Axl singing into the microphone whilst looking down at me with a surprised expression.
