At home, Jimmy spoke to Axl in private. That was an interesting twist on the Sweet Child Of Mine song you sang at karaoke today. Axl blushed.
"Who did you have in mind when you sang that altered version today?"
"No one in particular," Axl said, blushing and looking at the ground shyly.
"Sure you weren't thinking about someone special to you?" Jimmy questioned.
"I wasn't thinking about anyone special when I sang that altered version today," Axl lied, still looking at the ground shyly.
Jimmy then said,"Billy has blue eyes. Just like the "Sweet Child," in your song.
Axl had a caught look in his body language and face, but chose to lie. He responded,"I thought Billy's eyes were gray."
"No, Billy's eyes are blue. Just like the sky," Jimmy said pointedly.
Axl said,"The alternate version of Sweet Child Of Mine I sang today wasn't about Billy. It was just a silly little thing I did for fun."
"And your name is really Michael Randall Johnson," Jimmy said wryly.
Axl blushed.
"Whatever you want to confess to me, I'll keep it a secret," Jimmy promised.
Axl took a deep breath and said,"All right. I love Billy. The alternate Sweet Child Of Mine song I sang today is about Billy. Please don't tell anyone else," Axl pleaded.
Jimmy promised to keep it a secret. Axl thanked him and was welcomed.
Jimmy asked, "Does Billy know you love him?"
Axl replied,"I haven't told him."
Jimmy responded, "The way you guys were smiling at each other at the bar today looked like two guys in love."
Axl blushed. "Do you think I should tell him how I feel?"
"Let's just say, Billy might be receptive to you loving him."
Axl looked at Jimmy in surprise. "Is Billy Gay?" Axl asked.
"Let's just say that Billy has dated at least one guy before."
Axl smiled. Jimmy said,"You didn't hear that from me." He winked at Axl.
Axl thanked him and was welcomed.
