"We'll be fine. You wanna know why? Because were Nikki and Vanity."
She nodded, staring up at him with eyes full of hope and love. "...And we get through everything. We'll be okay."

"Hey Vanity, its been a few days so I thought I'd call you. I'm sorry if I was a little too pushy at the coffee shop. I didn't mean to make you cry, guess I'm good at that huh? Anyways, just give me a call back and we can talk about me and Arianna. I'm really excited to meet her.

I rolled my eyes as I played the next message, "What's up Van? I just watched two homeless people duke out it out over a newspaper. Cops came and arrested both of them. As you can tell my boredom is-"

"Are you just gonna delete every one of his voicemails?" Clementine asked me as she was wrapped up in Tommy's arms on my couch. It's been a few days since I dropped the baby bombshell on Nikki and today he's left a few messages on the answering machine.
"Vanity, I'm really trying, Y'know? Can you just call me? Either, I'm calling when you're not home or you're just deleting my messages." I laughed as I pressed the erase button.
"That's cold Van." Tommy berated as I rolled my eyes, "He's trying."
I scoffed, "I will call him tomorrow." I reassured but he shook his head and turned his attention to the TV.
I grabbed my purse and jacket, "I'll be back later Arianna will be at her babysitters until about eight in the morning. Jenny will drop Her off. Love you both." I told them as they waved me off before I left my apartment.
I opted on walking to the strip club. It was only a few blocks away and it was a nice night. When I arrived a line to get in was wrapped around the building. It was Thursday so that meant it was happy hour from eleven to two in the morning. All drinks were half priced and private dances were given at a discount sometimes free if you new the right person.
I walked around to the back entry as I saw Jason standing by the wall smoking a cigarette, "I already had to break up three fights tonight. The nicer weather brings out the assholes, I swear." He chuckled as I walked ho to him, taking his cigarette as I brought it to my lips.
His arms engulfed my waist as he pulled me to him, "There's some pot in that." He whispered into my ear before placing his lips on the side of my neck.
"Missed you, haven't seen you in a few days. Where've you been hiding?"
Oh you know, my ex popped up, told him about his kid and I've turned into a hermit in my own home where I feel safe.
"Just been busy, I missed you too." I mumbled right before he gave me a kiss. He deepened it by pulling me closer to him, his hand wandering over my body as it rested on my ass.
