Nikki's POV 

I woke up the next morning feeling my dog licking my hand. I turned to see him huffing and puffing. I pull off the blankets and get out of bed. My dog starts to bark and jump all over me, he probably needs to piss or shit.

"C'mon boy." I grab his collar.

Last night Iman tucked me in after I was a sobbing mess. I thought she was going to sleep in the same bed as me. But instead, she packed her stuff and went to the room next door. I don't blame her.

"Mani." I knocked on the door then opened it slightly. "Mani?" I poked my head in but did not see her. Her stuff was still there so that was a good sign. I headed towards the living room, but she wasn't there.

"Mani!" I call out again.

I open the front door and let my dog out so he can run around in the snow. I walk back inside and walk towards the washroom.

"Mani?" I look in but she is not there either.

I walk back out into the living room when I hear my dog barking. I look out the window and see two cars pulling up to the cabin outside. I opened the front door and see Jess and Mani get out of one car holding food and Fred in the other.

"Hey Sixx." Fred says walking up to me.

"Hey Fred, what's up." I smile and hug him. "Hey Jess." I turn to look at her.

"Hey Nik." She smiles.

We all walk inside the cabin. Me and Fred sit down on the couch while Mani and Jess walk into the kitchen with the food.

"What brings you guys by?" I ask.

"Well we came by this morning to pick up Iman so she could grab you guys breakfast. Cause there's no food in the fridge."

"Oh, that's nice of you, thanks." I say.

"Also, we're going to leave Angie's car here so you two can use it to drive around. Getting a taxi here is a hassle." Fred leans back on the chair breathing out.

"Alright." Jess says walking out of the kitchen. "Did you tell him about the car?"

"Yup." Fred nods.

"It's Angie's car so please drive safe. She'll throw a fit if you crash it." Jess warns.

Mani walks out of the kitchen with her arms crossed over her chest. "So, Fred have you spoken to Jess's dad yet?" She asks.

"Yeah he's alright." Fred shrugs.

"Fred, you've seen nothing yet. My dad is stern and crazy. He's a no-nonsense type of guy. So please be careful of what you say around him."

"Yeah, yeah Jess." Fred dismisses Jess's warning. "I've handled Motley Crue."
