Afraid | Nikki Sixx {Remastered}

Chapter 26.

Carly's POV(I forgot to mention, I'm so sorry! But special thank you to RandiMcMickin for this idea! If you haven't already, check out her story! It's amazing!!)

Nikki ran off stage and hugged me tightly, he lifted me up and spun me around. I giggled and hugged him back. He kissed me as he placed me back on the floor, but his hands still lingered on my hips. I smiled out of the kiss and giggled. He pressed his forehead against mine.

"Someone's happy." I said and smiled.

"You have no idea, we finally get a break. Just us for three days, babe." He said.

My smile grew. "I'm so excited to be alone with you." I said.

"I am, too, babe. I gotta get out of these stage clothes and then we are getting the fuck out of here." He said as we broke away. "You coming?" He asked.

"I gotta use the bathroom, but I'll be right behind you as soon as I'm done." I replied.

He nodded and kissed me quickly before walking off towards the direction of the dressing room. I smiled and started to walk towards the women's bathroom. I quickly found it and did my business. I washed my hands and checked my makeup in the mirror. I fixed any smeared makeup and then walked out.

As I was walking, I felt someone tap my shoulder. I turned around and froze. I can't believe this is who's right in front of me. My knees buckled, my mouth got dry and I started shaking.

"Hey, Carls." My ex fiancé, Derek said.

I shook my head. "W-What are y-you doing here?" I asked, my voice shaking. It feels like I have to pull the words out of my throat.

"Aw, you still have that nervous stutter? Some things never change, I guess." He said, completely ignoring my question.

"What are you doing here?" I said more sternly, making sure I didn't stutter.

"I'm a fan, of course." He replied. "I got backstage passes, what are you doing here?" He asked.

"I'm their wardrobe stylist." I replied.

His eyebrows raised. "Damn! I would never picture you getting a job where you have to be around the Crue all the time." He said.

"Well, I did." I said. "Catching up is over, I gotta get back to Nikki." I said and turned to walk away.

"Wait, Nikki?" He asked, quickly walking in front of me. "You guys have a fling going or something?" He asked.

"As a matter of fact, we do. Not that it's any of your business." I replied. "I really don't wanna talk anymore, Derek." I said.

"No, I do, though! I've been thinking about you nonstop lately." He said.

"Good for you, I guess. I haven't thought of you since we split up." I said.

"Aw, c'mon, Carly. You know that's a lie." He said.

I rolled my eyes and started to walk away, I felt him grab my wrist and he turned me around to face him again.

"Don't fucking touch me." I spat and ripped my arm away from his grasp. "You think I have anything to say to you? You crushed me, we were gonna get married and you ruined that just a week away from our fucking wedding!" I exclaimed.

"I made a goddamn mistake! I'm only human!" He yelled.

"Oh, so you mistakenly stuck your dick in someone else!? Get your head out of your ass!!" I yelled.

I turned to walk away once again, but Derek grabbed my arm again. This time he yanked me backwards and he pressed his lips onto mine. I put my hands on his chest and shoved him away.

Before I got a chance to say anything, "What the fuck is going on!?" I heard Nikki yell.

I looked over to see Nikki walking over to me. "You're cheating on me with someone like him!?" He yelled. "I can't believe you! We were about to go on break together, we were gonna spend those three days together!" He kept ranting.

"Nikki!" I exclaimed.

"What!?" He yelled, his chest visibly going up and down from how angry he is.

"That's Derek, my ex fiancé." I whispered, leaning close to him. "He forced himself onto me, you know I would never take him back. I'm all in for you, please believe me." I whispered.

I leaned back and Nikki looked at me and then over to Derek. I sighed, Derek ruined everything. I thought I couldn't hate him anymore but, he proved that wrong tonight.

All of a sudden, Nikki grabbed Derek and shoved him against the wall. My eyes went wide. He grabbed Derek by the collar of his shirt. "You think you can come to my fucking show and fuck around with my woman?" He asked sternly.

"She was mine first." Derek replied. God, he's such a fucking idiot.

Nikki didn't hesitated, he let go of Derek's collar and swung. His fist connected with Derek's nose and he fell over, hitting the floor in a daze. My eyes went wide again. Nikki shook his hand and walked over to me, wrapping an arm around my waist.

"Alright, let's get home." He said as we started to walk out of the venue.
