2004
Nikki and Kristen had gone completely no contact for years. That gave Nikki enough time to get sober again, of course with a few slip-ups here and there. But he was now a fully sober family man as he had always dreamed of being, however, 20-something-year-old Nikki would be cringing at how he is now. He and Donna had gotten back together (keep this in mind readers ;) ) and were raising Frankie Sixx and his other children. Kristen had become a distant memory to him, flashes of her smile and sounds of her laugh still haunted his dreams some nights. Nikki was itching to make new music but he had promised Donna he'd take a break for his family.
Kristen on the other hand was doing well. She had found herself a good job with a record company mixing music and other things, she was headed down the road to become a great producer. Kristen and Tommy had dated for about a year until Tommy fell head over heels for Pam Anderson and they were now married. Kristen didn't mind much, Tommy would always be her best friend. Kristen had chosen the single life as it was the only relationship she could be in with no drama involved. Kristen told herself that she was over Nikki and she had been for years, but the truth is she wasn't. There were many times during her and Tommy's relationship that she would secretly hope they would run into Nikki for whatever reason, but that never happened. Sometimes she thinks about the possibility of Nikki walking through the doors of her place of work and they'd live happily ever after. But nothing was that simple for her.
Kristen had been put on working with an up-and-coming band called Hinder. She wasn't sure what she thought of them, but they were nice to work with. They had been working on their debut album, set to release at the beginning of 2005. She had spent months holed up in the DJ booth trying to make sure it was nothing short of perfect. The record company was throwing Hinder an album release party and as one of the producers on said album, she was invited. Kristen almost declined, the party scene not really being her favorite place to be. She got way too much of it when she was with Tommy. But after her boss threatened her with the loss of her job, she decided to go. Her boss was a nice family man with salt-and-pepper hair and a bright smile. He always picked at Kristen for never leaving the house, which is why he said he was going to fire her if she didn't come.
Which is why she was sitting with her arms crossed and an awful cramp in her face in the back of the car that was sent for her. She had chosen a simple short and tight black dress to wear, something that complimented her figure without overdoing it. She felt the car come to a jolting halt and a moment later the door was being opened and her ears were flooded by the sounds of camera clicks and screams of questions. They weren't for her, they were for the long list of A-listers that were going to be present at the party tonight. She was escorted into the outdoor space that was decorated with lights and rock was playing softly in the background. She clenched her purse tighter and headed straight for the bar to find her something to occupy her time with.
