"Hello and good evening! My name is Bob Cunningham and I am here with two of the boys from the legendary rock band, Guns N Roses." Bob Cunningham introduced, causing the audience to go wild.
Axl Rose and Slash were on the talk show aired on live TV called Evenings with Cunningham and they were very excited.
"Hey, I'm Axl Rose and I'm the lead singer of Guns N Roses." Axl smiled and waved at the audience, giving his signature grin.
"And I'm Slash, lead guitarist." Slash bit his lip and smiled, brushing his poofy hair out of his face.
"So, boys. I would like to start off with some simple questions, then we'll dive into the juicy gossip." Cunningham grinned. "How are things on this new tour of yours, the Not in this Lifetime tour?"
"Oh, it's great!" Axl chuckled, "I mean, not as much partying and girls as there used to. I'm getting to the point where my back is starting to hurt and my voice ain't as great as it used to be."
"Hey, you're voice is great, Ax. Don't put yourself down." Slash frowned, putting an arm around his singer. They were both sitting on a huge couch, but very close to each other.
"Classic Slash." Cunningham smiled at the camera, "Always looking out for his singer. Say, we saw a photo of you two recently."
"Oh, yes?" Axl raised an eyebrow. "It better not be those damn 'Fat Axl' photos, I've seen enough of those."
"No, no! It's actually a photo of the two of you." Bob motioned to the two rockstars, who both cocked their heads to the side. "Come on, Jim. Put the photo on the big screen."
Slash and Axl's eyes widened and their stomachs dropped.
"Can you maybe explain this?" Bob asked politely. All the people in the audience were on the edge of their seats, waiting to hear the two men's explanation.
"W-Where did you get that?" Axl stumbled, face getting red as he fiddled nervously with a silver cross necklace.
It was a picture of Slash and Axl making out on the beach from last week, although, they thought they were alone. Motherfuckers.
"Someone emailed it to us. Are you two, yenno-" Cunningham was cut off by an angry Axl.
"Who the hell took that? Why the fuck would someone take pictures of us without our damn permission?!" Axl was fuming. The whole audience gasped at Axl's profanity, know it would be bleeped off on television.
"Hey, Ax, calm down." Slash grabbed Axl's arm to keep him seated.
"Woah woah, we didn't mean this to happen. Are you okay?" Cunningham was obviously concerned. But of course, like any interviewer, he knew this would happen. He wanted controversy to keep the TV show alive.
"No, I'm not okay." Axl huffed, sitting down and crossing his arms, furrowing his eyebrows. "This is our life, why should we share any personal information with you?"
"Axl, really, it's okay for you to admit that you and Slash are dating." Bob tried to calm him down, sweat collecting on his forehead.
"We aren't dating!" Axl shouted, face flushed pink with anger and embarrassment. Slash's heart dropped. Was he really that ashamed to admit they were dating?
"But, you guys are kissing in the pic-"
"Fuck you!" Axl shouted, flipping off the camera. "I'm done, I'm done with this shit. I'm not gay, I don't like Slash like that."
"Cut! Cut to a commercial!" Cunningham yelled at the producers quickly as Axl stood up, walking away.
"Axl, we still have more questi-"
"Fuck you and your shitty ass television show!"
Slash sighed, standing up and following the angry man.
"Axl? Axl!" He shouted, trying to catch up to him as the redhead speed walked out of the place they were filming.
"Not now, Slash."
Slash stopped in his tracks, eyes watering as he just realized this was it. Now everyone knew about their relationship. And Axl didn't seem to want to admit it.
(A/N OMG EVERY ROSE HAS ITS THORN JUST CAME ON IM CRYING THIS IS SO PERFECT FOR THIS MOMENT AJAJAJAJ GOD BLESS IM MAKING THAT THE TITLE NOW AHHH)
Slash sighed and walked out the door to outside with Axl. They just stood there for a moment, silence.
"Axl..." Slash whispered. He couldn't think of anything to say except, "I'm sorry..."
"Don't be sorry." Axl croaked, playing with a string on his jacket.
"I-It's okay if you don't w-wanna be together anymore." Slash stuttered, wiping away his teary eyes with the sleeve of his leather jacket. He shuffled his feet, kicking a rock with his big black boots.
All of a sudden, Axl started crying. He turned to Slash, grabbing onto his warm body and sobbing into his chest.
"D-Don't cry. You're gonna make m-me cry harder." Slash laughed, pulling his boyfriend close. He sighed, burying his face in the crook of Axl's neck. "I'm sorry this had to happen. I know you weren't ready to tell everyone."
Axl sniffed, looking up at Slash.
"Shit, babe. We've been through way worse things than this." He giggled, his wrinkles on his face from old age crinkled into a smile.
"Yeah, and you're still gorgeous." Slash leaned down and kissed him on the forehead.
"I'm sorry that I made it seem like I was ashamed of our love. I was just mad I guess."
"It's okay, babe. Every Rose has it's thorn." Slash snickered, rubbing Axl's back and letting out a deep breath, wiping his eyes.
"That was a pun. Wow, you're still the same fucker." Axl sighed happily, leaning against the big beast. "We should get back inside, I kinda left on a bad note."
"Sure did."
The grabbed hands, walking back into the place to be greeted by a frantic Bob Cunningham.
"Oh! There you are!" Relief washed over Cunningham's face as he saw the two men. "Are you still up for-"
"Yes." Axl smiled, squeezing Slash's hand. "I'm sorry, sir. I'll clear everything up after the commercial.
"Thank you! Everybody in places!" He shouted, crew running around frantically.
"And we're back! Axl Rose said he has something to say." Cunningham sat back down and so did Slash and Axl.
"I apologize for my violent outburst, I was just shocked and angry." Axl sighed at the audience and looked innocently at the camera. "It is true, me and Slash have been dating for the past 10 years and I love him very much."
Slash looked over at Ax and grinned, leaning forward and giving him a passionate kiss on the lips. The whole audience awed at them, standing up and clapping.
"I guess we just didn't expect to tell everyone this on live television, but what happens, happens." Slash smiled, looking down at his lap and blushing.
"There you have it, folks. Slash and Axl Rose are a couple and a mighty cute one indeed." Bob laughed, shuffling in his seat. "Well, what are you going to do now?"
Axl thought for a second.
"Probably make love on the tour bus because that annoys the shit out of Duff."
Slash blushed and hid behind his moppy hair, Axl laughing and kissing his cheek.
"Well, boys, thanks for coming on the show tonight and I really do apologize for all of that craziness." Cunningham got up and shook their hands firmly.
"Absolutely!" Slash smiled, grabbing Axl's hand. "Thank you for having us!"
"Of course! Tomorrow evening we have a very special guest, Nikki Sixx. Good bye, folks!"
And the TV show ended.
