Decided to post another chapter today. At the end of this one, there's going to be another 1989 flashback, BTW. I haven't done those in a while because I had felt like there's no need for them now that we know the truth about what's happened in their past anyway, but I kind of missed doing the flashbacks tbh just because they were so cute in them lol.

Anyways, the flashback would take place in one of those happier times BEFORE Nikki learned about Marshall's no good ways and they were just happy together.

Nikki's P.O.V.

"Yes, that's her, speaking," I reply to my mystery caller frowning slightly and rubbing my still throbbing forehead, God no more drugs for me ever, leave it to rappers and rock stars or something.

"Well, hello there Ms Jacobs, my name is Monica Jenkins and I am with the #1 Actor's League agency. We have your old resume and your headshots on file here, and we were wondering are you currently available to participate in an audition? There's a current open casting call for a movie role..."

What?!

"Um..." is all I can say because I am just so shocked right now, I have to say, this phone call here wakes me up immediately, knocking the rest of my hangover right out of me instantly.

Maybe not all of it thought, because I say something completely stupid next.

"Well I um... I don't know if you guys realize this or not, but I am currently blacklisted in Hollywood, and I can't attend any auditions anyways..."

"Ms Jacobs, whatever issue you used to have before, it has been taken care of actually," the lady on the phone politely replies. "Which is exactly why I am currently reaching out to you. We've got a role here for you that we think you would be perfect for, so if you are available..."

"Shit!! Yesssss!! Of course I'm fucking available!!" I blurt out then catch myself so as not to sound too eager. "I mean um... yeah, I'm available, I don't have anything else lined up right now, so yeah..."

"Perfect... The only thing is that the audition would be held in Detroit, and I know that you are currently located in LA. Are you okay to travel to Detroit for this?"

Ugh, back to fucking Detroit again...

"Yeah, sure," I say happily.

"Perfect," Ms Jenkins repeats again, sounding satisfied. "So I will see you in exactly two weeks then, I will text you the address to our agency and the time to meet up with our team here so we could prep you for the audition."

"Um... okay, thank you so much!!" I exclaim, again unable to stop myself from sounding way too eager.

"Wait, hold on, what is the movie even about?" I ask curiously, even though honestly? I could care less at this point, I would literally audition for anything, unless it was like a porno or something.

"I am sorry, Ms Jacobs, bit as of right now, I cannot reveal any details to you over the phone," the lady then replies as though it's somw type of top secret information.

Oh well though, I'll take it. Like I said, it doesn't really matter to me what it is, as long as it's not a porno.

After we hang up, I promptly take my butt to the bathroom, brush my teeth and force myself to take a shower, my whole body aching the whole time, but I do feel somewhat better afterwards. I fix myself some breakfast and sit in the kitchen area eating it, when all of a sudden I hear the door to the apartment unlock and then I hear three distinct voices coming from the living room. One female and two males. I immediately recognize Kianna, of course, then one of the male voices is DeShaun, and the third one...
