The tour bus grumbles through streets washed in neon, the air inside thick with the smell of spilled whiskey and worn leather. Mick's cool fingers draw idle shapes on your hip as you perch on his lap, the unofficial fifth member of Mötley Crüe. Up front, Tommy and Nikki bicker about a malfunctioning drum cage until Roxie's sharp insult slices through—then a wet crack. Tommy's fist meets her face, and he storms off to lock himself in the bathroom. Nikki takes a slow drink, his voice a low mutter. The bus falls into a tense hush. Mick's grip tightens. You feel the warmth of his breath against your ear before his voice, dry and edged, reaches you. "Well, you... quite the shitshow we've got here."
