Too Fast For Love

Chapter 24: Back For More

Nikki's POV

I woke up the next morning in a place that I didn't recognize at all. The last thing I remembered was leaving the rollerskating rink after making Kat feel like shit and cry. I know I probably shouldn't of done or said what I did, but I couldn't stand seeing her with another person, let alone one of my friends.

I turned to the left side of the bed to then realize there was somebody next to me. It was some random girl that I must of picked up from somewhere. I quietly got out of the bed and put my pants back on and grabbing my scattered belongings and helmet and left out the door. I then realized where I was. A scummy ass motel. This shit was really getting old.

I hopped onto my motorcycle and started it up and then headed out. I didn't know exactly where to go, but the first place I thought of was Kat's place. I know she probably didn't want to see me, but I needed to apologize to her. I hated hurting her. It took me almost an hour to get over to her place considering I was in the middle of somewhere I've never been before.

It was getting to be around 2pm and I was starting to think that she wasn't home, and possibly at work. I had been waiting downstairs in parking garage hoping she would walk down so I can see and talk to her. Just when I was about to leave, I see a familiar car pull up. It was Sebastian. He noticed me and got out of his car and walked over to me.

"Hey Nik, whats up? What are you doing here" he asked. I knew he was purposely trying to play dumb.

"I just - I realized that Kat had told me that she had something of mine that I wanted back. It's a - a jacket that I want to make sure I pack for tour" I replied, trying to come up with the best excuse.

"Sixx, I'm not stupid. I know about you and Kat. You guys had a past. But you hurt her dude. I could see it in her face last night. Honestly, you don't deserve her" he replied.

"Woah dude, and you do" I question straightening myself up. He was only a little bit taller than me, but I think we both knew I was just a bit stronger.

"Oh c'mon Nikki, you trying to get all tough on me? Acting like you're going to do something" he replied, stepping closer to me. Then that's when I heard a voice come closer.

"What the fuck?! Both of you guys, back the fuck up" Kat said coming up in between us, dropping both bags of groceries she had bought. At least that explained where she was.

"What is going on with you two" she questioned still standing in the middle of both us, looking back and forth. "You guys are good friends. So quit it now and both of you, help me bring up these bags" she says pointing over to her groceries sitting on the floor. We each grabbed two bags and followed her upstairs to her place.

Kat's POV

I couldn't believe the bullshit that I walked into. I for sure did not want to see Nikki at all at this particular time until I really had to. But Sebastian instigating Nikki? I didn't expect to see that.

"Just set the bags down on the table, I'll put them away" I said. They proceeded to do so and then took a seat on opposite ends of the couch. Thankfully, no later than 5 minutes pass, Alice comes walking in.

"Hey Alice" I say closing the fridge.

"Hey uhh what are they both doing here" she asks. "Don't you think it's just a little bit weird?"

"Al, don't even get me started. I didn't even plan this" I said taking a deep breath. Then that's when Nikki got up from the couch and headed towards my direction. I looked up and looked back down, not wanting to make any other type of interaction than what I did earlier.

"Hey Kat, can we talk" he asks. I don't acknowledge him.

"Please Katrina" he says again a few moments later. At this time, somehow Alice got Sebastian to go outside and talk to her. I don't know how she did it, but she did.

"Okay fine. What? What could you possibly want to say to me? I mean other than sorry for showing up at my place uninvited when you clearly made me feel like the dumbest piece of shit on earth last night" I say putting my hand on my hip and my other arm leaning against the counter.

"Kat listen" he starts to say putting his hand on my arm to 'comfort' me. I quickly shake it off, clearly not wanting to be touched by him. Deep down, I really still loved Nikki. I wanted him to touch me again, to kiss me again, to be together again, but that could never happen. He's turned into somebody who I really don't even know anymore.

"I really do want to apologize for what I said last night. I had no right to say those things" he started to say.

"You're damn fucking right, Sixx" I say interrupting him.

"Stop. I know how much I've been an asshole to you and that you have no trust in me anymore, but I want us to get along. I want to be able to talk to you again and be around you without you having any resentment. I figured that since you are coming with us on tour, I should at least try to fix things. I know that you and Sebastian are seeing each other and I respect that" he said.

"Sebastian and I aren't seeing each other. We are just friends. I barely met him yesterday morning when Tommy came in with him to my store" I replied. "I don't even know why I'm telling you this? I don't have to explain myself to you, Nikki."

"Oh okay. Well...I just want us to be okay you know, with each other. No hatred or resentment. I mean after all, we do have a past, a pretty serious past" he replied.

He was right. Not just about us having a past, but everything. I didn't want anything negative between us. Nikki and I have known each other for a while, even if we weren't talking for most of the time. He was important to me and I didn't want to lose that.

"Fine Nikki. I forgive you" I reply.

"Good. That's all I came here for" he said with a small smile appear on his face. I somewhat smiled back.

"I'll see you later then" he said turning around and walking out.

"Bye Nikki" I said biting my lip, watching him walk out. Every little bit of me on the inside wanted me to just stop him and keep him here with me, but that wouldn't be fair to me. I already knew what would be the outcome. It also wouldn't really be fair to Sebastian either.
