Might as Well Face it, You're Addicted to Love (Joe Perry/Nikki Sixx)

Chapter 139: Jo-Jo Bear & His Honeybee (Part 3)

Our second Honeymoon, God....it was perfect. It was a perfect mix of pure love, desire & US is the best way I can think of describing it. We talked to our children every day & every night before they went to bed.... them telling us about their days, how much they missed us but too how they felt like Nikki & I was always with them (still are). Time Passed & yet lasted forever...each day of our second honeymoon was like that & before my Honeybee and I knew it, a little over a week had passed, with a couple of more days left.

I suppose my Point(s) I am trying to make are always we were bound by heart, by love and as Nikki said, where you find us is not just us sharing sweet moments but talking to our five precious, precious children....

The phone is on speaker, the children Nikki & I share are calling us and, in this moment, we are all together....and I feel tears in my eyes, as I share a look with Nikki & he is in much the same way as I....

"Hey Mommy, an' daddy! We are together now. Dat' wat sissies say lots." James, my sweet boy, truly takes after Nikki & I both from looks to personality.

"They like ew' and mommy both." Tony, my youngest twin as Nikki has said since he was born, I very much agree with him & I LOVE that. I love all our children.

"You mean like having us both there buddy?" Nikki asks, squeezing my hand & I oh so gladly squeeze back. I KNOW....

"Uh-huh!" Tony exclaims.

"We love that, that means a lot to mommy & me.... more than the five of you could ever truly know." I say to my son & really all my children I share with my Nikki, "—So, you been good & have you thanked Uncle Tommy & Aunt Stevie?" I ask.

The children rotated amongst our family, like with playdates & all. But they stayed with Tommy Lee & Steven Adler-Lee, the last few days of our honeymoon. Now on with the show...

"Wes's daddy! Unka Tommy funny...." The Voice of my little Angel whom I thought for a moment in time I almost lost, lost her AND her brothers & her mother. She is Nikki's 'youngest clone'. I hear too, our sons echo their sister as well as the murmur of my oldest girls: Amara & Josephine in the background letting the triplets have their time.

Frankie giggles, so heartwarming.... her precious giggles just like Nikki's & I can clearly see her little smile, Nikki's clone indeed in everyway except for the eyes....

"Josey say only pank (Prank) Unka Pink!" Frankie's giggles turn mischievous. "Oh! Josey takes lotsa pictures mommy an' daddy.... she says it pecial' for ew.

I can feel Nikki smirk, I match him before he & I share a look.... touched as Frankie excitedly tells us more about Josephine taking pictures, like a photo shoot & That they had fun painting (not on the floor, or walls but outside.... on each other.) Josephine apparently had the idea, involving water paints on their little precious faces....The triplets talk to Nikki & I some more before apparently its nap time for them as I can hear them talk to Tommy, they don't get off the phone till they send hugs & 'Kissies' thru the phone and telling us how much they love us and at last, Josephine & Amara have their time talking to Nikki & I.

I LOVE being a father and that's BECAUSE of Nikki, my Honeybee. He's given me them; he's given me SO much.... It's everything. It's so hard to believe at times or a lot of times how FAR we've come together as not just a couple but as parents. Our children look at us like we're their heroes. I can never get over that. Each day I learn something new from them. And Nikki is right HERE, ALIVE with me for it ALL......

"Having a good honeymoon Dad, Mom? We love you." Josephine sounds SO grown up, already.... still 9 for now, but going on 10, 10 this year! And too, she has the most beautiful voice, the voice of my Honeybee in female form.

Nikki smiles, as he looks to me and I feel the same.... tears, but ones of joy. So much love, so much & he answers, "We love you too..." Nikki chokes out, "It's been magical sweet bee. We think about you guys all the time, feeling like we're with you.... we're together."

"We always are & like dad says, 'no matter where I'm at in the world, I will find my way to you, always we're together, never truly apart.'"

"God.... honey...." I fumble for words, so fucking touched. Her words reminding me, reminding Nikki.... that truly we are amazing as parents, raising our children right. "---That's so right. So right..." I whisper before finding my voice, "So.... i heard you took lots of pictures for your ma & I & painting too?" My oldest daughter, she's of course (obviously as Nikki's clone) has inherited his knack for photography & art & Music too. So proud of her, of all five of my children.

Josephine tells us she wanted to do like Nikki & I often do.... family activities, bonding, a way to unwind. Too she tells us of practicing guitars, jamming as it were with Amara....and that too is shared with the triplets.

Amara tells us, "They wanna be like Josey & I....and its lots of fun. Uncle Tommy & Aunt Stevie jam with us too. James really likes drums; he says he wants them for Christmas for Santa to bring them.

"We'll see...." I feel amused whispering to Nikki, "Well five kids.... got us a band right there." Nikki smirks, but his eyes are soft. He too is amused I can tell, amused and proud both. We continue to talk to Amara & Josephine, who tells us more about their days, things they wanna do & ask us if we can have a family vacation to the beach. We talk about everything with them, before eventually we hang up but not before telling them, telling all five of our children how much we love them, reminding them that if they need us.... Anytime, day or night we are THERE.

I draw Nikki into my arms, him sitting now in my lap.... his head resting in the crook of my neck. I can feel his tears, his heartbeat in time with mine. The tears aren't ones of sadness, but of love.... of joy, of pride.... of all the good things.

"I feel the same way honeybee." I murmur, gently running a hand up & down his back before running the fingers of said hand, through my husband's wild, yet silky raven mane.

"Its.... just, JOE."

"I got you; I get you baby."

"And I know you always have, even when I didn't see and that you always will. We've been thru Heaven, thru hell thru out our marriage....and even before then. And look at how far we've come..." Here Nikki pulls back carefully enough to look at me, our gazes now locked. "---The greatest miracles, expressions of our love.... call us mom, call us dad. WE are their parents. They are all alive and here today because of YOU. I AM ALIVE because you and your love ANTHONY JOSEPH PERRY have saved me. I am proud of us, proud to be YOURS. Proud of our children, who everyday take more & more after us."

No more words are needed as we share a slow, sweet long tearful kiss & get lost in one another as we always do....

No sex didn't follow.... right away there. We stayed like that for a while, just holding one another, looking out over the waves. Where you next find us is the same day, or evening rather and Nikki & I am cooking dinner together & as always, you'll see....

A/N: Moments with their children, with each other & so much more. Part 4 is next & then after that we will see what I come up with.
