Breric l One shot's (Bruce Kulick x Eric Carr)

Why do you mess up?!

Eric's PoV

I was crying to myself because of my best friend Bruce. Even though I wish we could be more than best friends, he would never feel the same way.. I've had a huge crush on him for about 9 months, and I don't know how to handle it! We have practice today and it's the worst thing to be the drummer, when your crush is the guitarist.

Why? Because you can see him all the time! The past few weeks I tried to focus on my drums, but I couldn't stop staring at him. I'm glad I never messed up, 'cause they would've notice it and ask me whats wrong. I wouldn't know what to say!
Well.. it was different today..

I wiped my tears away and grabbed my drumsticks and my keys to drive to practice. When I came in Paul was already there, shit I'm early.
Ugh whatever..
He was tuning his guitar, but stopped when he noticed me.

“Hi Eric! Why are you so early?“
He asked, with a confused expression on his face.
“I don't know.. I felt like it.“ I mumbled.
“Are you okay? You look a little upset..“ I looked at him.
“What? No I'm fine!“ I said smiling.

“Hm.. if you say so..“
Suddenly I heard the door open. I immediately turned around..
Oh, it was just Gene..
“Hey guys, what's up?“ He asked.
“Not much.“ Paul answered for both of us.

I sat behind my drums and waited for Bruce. After about 5 minutes he came in, smiling his beautiful smile.
I immediately felt butterflies in my stomach.
“Alright lets start.“ Gene said handing Bruce his guitar.
“Are you in hurry? I have to tune it.“ Bruce said. “Oh.. right“ Gene answered.

Well, that was extremly akward.

After Bruce was done tuning his guitar. Paul started talking.
“We're gonna go trough a few songs, which aren't perfect yet. Firehouse, Deuce, Black Diamond, Hotter than hell, Calling Dr. Love and Beth.“

3rd Person PoV

Eric was confused. That was weird, Paul almost never let him sing more than one song. But he loved singing so he was fine with it + it helped him to focus on his drums and singing.
“Let's start with Black Diamond.“ Bruce and Gene nodded and looked at him.

Eric blushed. “Y-Yeah let's go.“ Bruce smiled at him and he blushed even more. Paul started playing and singing softly.
After that it was Erics part. His playing matched his vocals perfectly and he didn't even pay the slightest attention to Bruce.

They finished the song and turned around to look at Eric. They looked shocked. Eric immediately felt worried.
“D-Did I do something wrong?
Are m-my vocals bad?
Did I sing the wrong lyrics?!“
He quickly asked.. well he yelled.
“Did I play to f-“ he was cut off by Bruce. “No, you didn't! ..It was amazing.“ Gene and Paul agreed.

“I think I'll let you sing the song on more shows.“ Paul said.
Eric was shocked.
“R-Really?“ he asked. Paul nodded and smiled. Erics shocked expression turned into a smile.
“Wow.. thank you.“
“Alright let's play Calling Dr. Love.“ Bruce would've loved to hear Erics voice again but he couldn't say a thing. That would be weird.

Bruce and Eric started playing the intro together. It worked, but not for a long time. Eric was constantly day dreaming and thinking of Bruce.
He sometimes hit the wrong drums,
he came out of the rythym,
he messed up his backing vocals.

“Alright stop!“
Paul yelled. Everyone stopped playing. He looked at Eric, clearly mad.
“What the hell were you doing?!“ He yelled at him. Eric jumped, but stayed silent.
“You played Black Diamond so perfect, and now you're playing like a f*cking monkey!“ He continued.
Eric looked down, obviously hurt.
