When Lightning Strikes Sixx: A Tommy Thayer & Nikki Sixx Story)

Chapter 24-Your Everything to Me, Sweet moments (Nikki Sixx POV)

I wake up in bed to find myself alone, my husband's side of the bed unoccupied. I start to panic.... Breathe Nikki! Maybe he's in the bathroom? I get out of bed and check the bathroom: Nope no Tommy. My brain finally decides to fully kick in and it hits me: the nursery. Here lately, Tommy's been spending a lot of time in there. I walk to the nursery and sure enough there's my heart: Tommy. He hasn't yet noticed me; he's sitting up in one of the comfy chairs: a chaise lounge and is reading a book. Tommy finally looks up and startles...

"Nikki! I didn't expect.... what are you doing up?"

"Sorry Tommy didn't mean to startle you. I woke up, guess I couldn't sleep." I move to sit as close to him as I can, and he places his book down and I take his hands in mine.

"I couldn't sleep either. Our sons woke me up, I had to piss. Just feeling restless. I think the boys are too. They keep moving and kicking." Tommy sighs wearily. It's been a few weeks since the baby shower & now he's 7 & a half months pregnant.

"Why didn't you wake me to help you out of bed?", I ask softly and Tommy bursts into tears and I am quick to thumb them away. "Shh, Tommy.... I didn't mean to upset you."

"N-Nikki.... I just, well I've woken you up enough here lately...between my cravings and insomnia. You need sleep too. You do so much for me, and our sons.... well, I think they will come early. I'm not ready.", He sniffs looking down, anywhere but me.

I place my hands on his very well swollen belly and massage it gently, "Tommy look at me." Tommy does so and his eyes sparkle with tears. "I don't care how often you wake me up, I told you.... wake me up anytime you need me. I'm your husband, I want to take care of you and besides if your losing sleep so will I. I just love you so very much, so please don't hesitate to tell me anything or ask me for anything. And if they do come early, I promise you it will be ok, and I'll be right by your side Remember Tommy, always: your everything to me!"

"Oh Nikki! That was...so beautiful!", Tommy smiles at me and I tear myself away from his belly, that beautiful belly and bring him into a kiss taking my sweet time, as I feel him run his fingers gently thru my hair. After we part for air..., "Nikki, I think I'm ready to go back to bed. The babies have calmed down. I am so sleepy."

"Let's get you back to bed, babe.", I get up first and then carefully help my husband up and back to bed where I put him back in our bed making sure he's comfortable, before crawling into bed beside him.

"Nikki, I love you...thank you for being so amazing...thank you for loving me and thank you for these amazing babies inside me." Tommy whispers.

"I love you too and thank YOU for giving me a chance, for marrying me and carrying our sons.", I whisper back but notice Tommy has fallen asleep, so quickly. I soon join him....

It's now later in the morning, around 11, I think. Tommy is still asleep beside me, hands on his belly. I gaze at him in awe, it just still blows my mind.... he's here beside me, looks so damn beautiful and is married to ME, loves ME. He truly is my everything, him, and my unborn sons. After a few minutes he begins to stir and his eyes flutter open.

"Morning, Nikki...did you sleep ok? I---," I cut him off with a kiss and then our lips part with a sweet click, "I take it that means yes." Tommy's eyes are dancing.

"That my love, means hell yes." I chuckle, "oh! Thought of anymore baby names?"

"Yeah, I think I have them set now actually. You mentioned you liked Gunner, so one son we can name Gunner Decker Sixx and our other son: Tyler Jamison Sixx.", Tommy smiles gently.

"Oh, those names are perfect Tommy! And Jamison like whiskey huh?" I smirk.

Tommy rolls his eyes playfully and snorts, "I'm surprised.... if you had your way, you'd name one of our sons Jack Daniels."

"Ah, too true baby. Too true, but Jamison.... I've rubbed off on you. You gotta admit.", I've never been so playful with anyone as I have my husband: EVER. I can't believe I was so cold to him not so long ago, but that's in the past.

"Ok, Ok.... fine. You win...happy?", Tommy smirks widely.

"Of course!", I snicker before once more kissing him, "Now are you hungry?"

"Well DUH! I'm heavily pregnant with twins.", Tommy exclaims in a mock offended tone.

"'well duh?'. What are you 12?". I cackle loudly.

"12 inches? Then yes.", Damn he's good...

"You keep that up and we won't leave this bed.", Both of us burst into laughter my heart full. Finally, we make our way downstairs, me helping Tommy of course.... the way he looks at me: Such love and trust in his gaze.... Really and truly, he is my everything. I settle my husband on the couch, and he has the book in hand he was reading last night. I sit down beside him and cuddle as close into his side as I can, taking him in my arms, hands stroking his swollen belly feeling our sons move.

"So, what are you, Gunner and Tyler in the mood for?"

"Mmm...really craving pizza. Can we have that?", Tommy is salivating. I laugh fondly.

"Of course, we can! And lucky you, we have the stuff here to make our own.... whatever you want on there."

"Oooh.... I can't wait. I- I want olives, and cheese...sauce, um this is weird but apples, and hot sauce all on there.", Tommy sounds a bit sheepish.

"Hey if that's what you want, then that's what you and our sons will get. It's not weird babe, it's not. Now let me get started on them and---," Tommy cuts me off.

"Sorry Nikki, I know we just got settled here, but can I join you in the kitchen?"

"Don't be sorry! And of course, you can! There's nothing I love more than to have you at my side.", I speak softly and am rewarded with a smile. Truer words have never been spoken.
