Extraordinaire.

18. The art.

Everytime Mick went to his daughters room, she'd jump out of her skin and throw something over whatever she was working on, he had asked her, but she said it was a surprise so he knocked it off and shrugged.

"What's she hiding?" Tommy chuckled as they had visited their apartment to talk with him.

"She said it's a surprise," Mick shrugged, "Really? Uh oh, be careful she may try and kill ya Mick," Nikki joked, "Yay!" Mick cheered making them laugh softly.

"There she is," Vince said, "Hey! What ya working on, man?" Tommy asked, "Something, you can't know!" She smiled, "Aww, why not?" They pouted, "You'll see, maybe in a week, also, daddy Is it okay if I go to the art store?" She asked, "Uh... I'll go with you soon," Mick said, "Nah man, I'll go with her," Nikki smiled, "Alright," Mick sighed.

They walked out and down the street.
"What ya working on man?" Nikki asked with a smile, "Something too awesome for you to see," Mixelle sighed making him chuckle.

They went into the art store and she looked at a collection of paint which Nikki bought for her, she hugged him tightly making him laugh softly as he walked her back to the place.

"Hey, how'd you go?" Mick asked as they got home, "Nikki bought me this," she said and showed them the large circular paint tray, large bottles of paint, "Oh nice!" Tommy said, "This will last me so long, yay," she giggled and sat by her father as she looked at her paints, grabbing her sketchbook which she left on the table the night before.

"I'll be back," she smiled and ran for her brushes and filling a plastic cup with water.
She began putting swatches on the page, labeling the colour down so she would know what colour was what.

"When do we get to see your art?" Tommy asked, "Soon, I promise," Mixelle giggled and crossed her heart making them chuckle.

A week had passed, they were still in Sweden while they were on tour, Mick couldn't help but chuckle as his daughter hugged him after a late show, she kissed his cheek and held his hand as he decided to go home early that night, smiling as they drove home together.

"I'm gonna head in early," Mick chuckled, "Night daddy! I might show you what I've been working on if it's finished tonight, I'll show you tomorrow," she said, "Alright darling, goodnight," he smiled and kissed her cheek before heading to bed.
