Mick POV 4 years later

We had just finished our first show from our Girls Girls Girls tour and were on our way to the same bar that I met Veronica. The memory flooded back to me. She was right. I didn't care about all those girls I fucked. In fact, when they were writhing underneath me, I imagined it was Veronica I was fucking. When I would eat a girl out, I would imagine how Veronica would taste. Probably like liquid sugar. How tight she would be.

After a few minutes of letting my mind wander inside the limo, I realized I was getting hard. I folded my legs and thought of how I could've improved on the show to make myself better. That saved my ass. Once we arrived I got a weird gut feeling that Veronica was going to be there. I brushed it off. 

We entered the familiar building. I looked around and saw no Veronica, but I stopped on a familiar face. I studied it for a second. Oh shit. Shelly. That meant that Veronica was here. I felt sick to my stomach. I heard the doors open at the front of the bar and turned around slowly. It was Veronica, but she was with another man. I got angry. I had no right to be angry, though. She had every right to be with whoever she wanted. especially after what I did to her. 

I tried to ignore the fact that the woman I've been in love with for 4 years was with someone else, but it was overbearing and too hard to ignore. I decided to turn around and look at her. Her hair was a bit of a darker brown than it was before. Her green eyes were just the same. She wore less clothes, and a lot more small details that stood out to me.

She turned my way and locked eyes with me, her face falling but still talking to the person she was with. She turned away and brought back her happy smile. I don't know where the fuck I got my new found confidence, but I walked over to her. "Hi Veronica." I said as friendly as I could, completely ignoring the man behind her. She stayed silent. "No fuckin' way, babe! You know Mick Mars?" The man she was with asked. "It's a long story, Chris." She said, staring at me with a clearly annoyed expression. "What do you want? I made it very clear to you I never wanted to see you again." She told me. "I just saw you hear and thought I should say hi." I said with a smile. "Well you thought wrong." She said turning around and acted like I didn't even exist.

My smile fell. "Veronica, will you please just talk to me outside?" I asked. "Fine. Will you leave me the fuck alone then?" She asked harshly. "Yes." I said. "Promise?" She asked again. "You'll never have to see me again." I told her.

She followed me outside with her drink in hand. "Listen, I know I said some things that I shouldn't have. I had just lost my wife and I was lonely. You were right, I shouldn't treat women like that. But I didn't know how to approach that in the right way and I said some really fucked up things that I regret every fucking day. I miss you and I've loved you since the day I met you. Even with my ex I never got that feeling that I got from you. You complete me." I said to her. 

Veronica's face wasn't annoyed anymore, but confused and empathetic. "I'm so sorry. If I would've let you finish, then we could probably be together right now, we could be married, have kids. We could've had the perfect life that every girl dreams of if I would've just let you talk." She said apologetically. "Because I love you too. Chris has been my rebound for 3 years." She told me. 

I pulled her in for a kiss, and she didn't fight me. She kissed back. I held onto her waist tightly as if I was going to lose her if I let her go. She pulled back and gasped. "I have to break up with Chris!" She said. "You don't have to be with me." I told her. "But I want to." She told me, never letting go of my biceps. I smiled. "Okay." I whispered.

She broke the news to Chris and he started crying. I felt bad, but it was for the best. She didn't even love him. I told myself over and over again in my mind that she loved me and held onto that feeling in fear that it wasn't true. 

I went to go tell the boys that I was leaving, Veronica attached to my arm. "Hey boys, I'm leaving." I said. "Damn, Mick. You gotta a hot one. Can I have her when you're done?" Nikki asked with a smirk. "No. She's permanently mine." I said happily. She nuzzled her face into my arm.

"Let's go baby. I'm tired of waiting." I said with a smirk.
