That was a long day i'm so tired, finally made it back to the bus to head to the next stop i'm so tired i can't even remember where. Myself and Emi are in the toilet brushing our teeth together... we're best friends we do everything together lol.
" I've spent so much time with guys now i'm starting to feel like one" as she scratches her head looking in the mirror.
" Oh ! i forgot to tell you after i went to the toilet in the bar i went to get a drink and that slash guy totally hit on me and bought my drink " I whisper hoping none of the guys are outside the door.
" NO WAY!! Soph he's like hot.... oh shit Nikki " the realisation hit her.
" yeah Nikki.... I like Nikki but we still haven't really talking about whatever this is between us and i can't help but feel like I overreacted with the whole Vanity thing i don't want him to think i'm crazy "
" You're a saint compared to her from some of the stories Mick told me, apparently she used to date Prince and is like a major drug addict " she rummages throw her makeup bag.
That got me thinking maybe her and Nikki done drug's together. I wanna know more but i don't wanna pry and ask Nikki questions especially since he's been doing good.
" great she's dated Prince and i've dated assholes like Jason, i'm a loser "
" hey but now you're dating the Nikki Sixx " she nudges me with a smirk
I just give her a " you know that's a lie look " . A big knock nearly knocks the door down.
" ugh ladies are you nearly finished i need to piss badly and last time i pissed out the window it came back on top of Vince who was not happy " tommy whines from behind the door. I laugh and open the door seeing him stood in the aisle with his knees twisted.
" Sorry Tom " i apologise feeling bad for taking too long.
" it's okay i've to get used to sharing with women " he laughs and hurries into the toilet.
We make our way to the back of the bus to see the boys just sat around drinking a beer. I go over and sit beside Nikki who looks like he's about to fall asleep poor guy. I just snuggle up against him and watch whatever is on the television before i find myself drifting off aswell.

I hate lying to her. Especially since she wants to help me. She's so kind maybe a little too kind for an asshole like me. I watch as herself and Emi go to the toilet together. They're women they would be in there awhile so i have time. I get up from my spot when they're out of sight and creep into my bunk and closing the curtain. It's the only sort of privacy you have on this bus. The guys are watching tv and drinking beers i know they won't come and bother me.
I dig under my pillow for the plastic bag i but under there earlier. I pull it out and careful take out the contents , the spoon , needle , lighter and the drug. I practically know a dealer in every state we go to. Useful information i know. I know i should feel bad but i don't. It's not that i don't wanna feel bad i just physically can't when i'm totally obsessed with drug. I want it. I need it.
Once i get my fix i leave the bunk. The girls still not out yet. I don't feel sick or paranoid i just feel drained and like i'm about to pass out. I grab and beer and sit on the couch near the guys who are just chatting. Their voices feel so far away. I hold the beer in my hand trying to open my eyes to see watches on the tv, but i can't. I feel myself slipping , my senses still on alert but my body shutting down. I can hear Tommy bang on the toilet door and hear it click open. Shit. My eyes are closed I can't open them even if i wanted to they're practically glued shut. I feel a dip in the couch beside me knowing it's Sophia i can smell her sweet perfume. Then i feel her head rest against my shoulder. I feel terrible i want to be good for her, I want her to trust me. I want to settle down with someone find love , a soul mate. I think i found her. I just don't want to ruin her.
Sophia's pov
I wake up early knowing i'm going to have another busy day. I think we're in New Mexico. But we finally get to stay in a hotel, we have two shows here. I make my way to the back to make myself a cup of coffee. No one else seems to be awake. I walk in and see Nikki still in the same position i left him last night. I didn't want to wake him when i was going to bed so i just laid a blanket over him. Is he okay though i thought he would've woken up during the night and went into his bunk. I walk over to him and kneel in the floor trying to look at him face but he's slouched on the coach. Doesn't help his hair is all in his face. I move a piece of hair that's covering his eyes and he jerks awake looking like he's seen a ghost. I get freight and jump back landing on my ass. He realises it's only me and relaxes. I start to laugh he's so dramatic.
" jesus Soph you scared the life out of me " he sits up
" I could say the same you're such a drama queen " i laugh. I make my way over to the coffee machine, trying to figure out how to work it. I can feel him behind me towering over my small figure. He plugs in the machine, oops.
" I knew that i was just getting my bearings " i feel embarrassed. He just smiles and nods.
" would you like a cup " i ask him with a sweet sarcastic smile.
" I don't know if i trust you seeing as you didn't even know how to turn it on " he thinks he's so funny. I roll my eyes.
" i'm joking i'm joking i'd love one " he walks over kissing my forehead. He's so cute.
We get to the hotel and it's so nice. Very fancy maybe and little too fancy for this lot. We all stand in the lobby with our bags waiting for Doc to sort out rooms.
" you know i used to live here " he says coming up beside me
" really this is awful fancy how did you afford it "
" ha ha very funny smart ass i meant in New Mexico "
" i thought you were from Seattle "
" I am, well sorta. I moved around a lot when i was younger. I lived with my grandparents in Idaho aswell for a while " this was the first time Nikki had openly told me anything about his life. I'm glad he feels like he can trust me telling me this information.
" Okay here are the room keys " Doc hands us all our room keys. I look over at Emi's and hers says 307 and then i look at mine and it was 303.
" Doc me and Emi don't have the same key cards " she looks over at me with this look. Not a bad look but a look.
" that's because she requested a room with Mick , so you're bunking with Sixx " oh that little.... she done this on purpose so I can get closer to Nikki.
" oh what a shame " Nikki says sarcastically throwing his arm over my shoulder.
" Now be down here at 5pm so we can head to rehearsals, Guns should be here soon they're running late " doc explains. I forgot all about the boys joining us. I'm glad i'm sharing with Nikki will give us good quality time and plus it'll keep Slash away from me.
