Y/N's POV, April 5th 1993

Things were happening this year and had already happened, Blaze was two, Skylar was also two now and they were both growing so quickly, it was scary. Also, Vince's album was due to be released in a couple of weeks and I was really excited, he was too.

I'd had exclusive access from Vince to listen to the album before it was released to the publics ears. It was a great album, a solid rock album, I was in love with it. Seeing how much I loved it I think Vince did feel a little proud of himself too.

I think it'd sell very well, Crüe fans should like it as it's similar to that style of music as that's what Vince is most comfortable singing. I was happy for Vince, he'd worked hard on this album, his first solo venture and it's going to pay off for him I had absolutely no doubt.

Nikki probably won't like it if it does well, it'll just hammer home harder how much of a mistake he made. Even when that hits home he won't openly admit it- he did what he thought was best in a way, I also understand it from that point of view. I know Tommy and Nikki both had Vince issues and the kinda logical thing would be to remove that issue from their everyday lives, however, it was what was best in a short-sighted way.

They should have just talked it out, argued it out, but they had to seriously just sit down and talk about it but no, no, Tom and Nik chose the easy option and that will totally come back on them in the coming months.

Fire around the band had died down by now, fans weren't sold on John Corbai yet and many never would be but the criticism was minimal now it'd probably kick up again once an album is released and reviewed but for now everything was fine and plans for the new album were well and truly underway.

On the front of Tommy and Heather, the divorce is in the process of being finalized because of that lack of criticism, which was the agreement he and Heather reached last year. Tommy did stay with Nikki and I for two months before he found a new house to move into. He was no trouble and we enjoyed having him around, Blaze loved it too. We had a lot of fun in those months to distract him from the impending divorce.

He was practically free now though, both of them were and it seems to already be making a difference in Tommy, he's totally back to being himself and the moodiness he was projecting onto Vince and which had been looming over even after Vin was forced out was gone now and that showed the impact that his marriage was taking on him.

He was happier and that's what I'd wanted for him for a number of years.

Nikki and I were sat in our living room having just finished some coffee, watching the TV but the longer I watched it the more I noticed he wasn't actually watching the TV, I glanced over and saw he looked distracted and that his eyes weren't actually on the show we had been watching at all, they were fixed on Blaze draw random things onto a piece of paper with a rather melancholy vibe coming off him.

This was kind of strange as there had been nothing that could have caused Nikki to be upset, not that I was aware of anyway.

"Nikki? You seem lost hun, what are you thinking about?" I wondered though wasn't at all sure about the answer I'd get.

The man sighed, then went back to being quiet, he didn't stay that way for long, he did answer me after debating on his head whether he should tell me the truth "My dad." Nikki replied simply.
