Heart of a Fighter[Nikki Sixx] 13

Chapter 13- Izzi's POV
I spent much of the afternoon with that damned paperwork. When I finally finished, Charli decided to go home and start rearranging things while I went to Tommy's. I checked my appearance in my rearview mirror; my wildly curly red hair in a messy bun, oversized sunglasses, red tank top, denim miniskirt, and doc martens. I smirked, heading up to Tommy's apartment. As I approached, I heard loud music, yelling, and a hell of a lot of banging around.I rolled my eyes as I banged on the door. Finally, someone came to the door, and I mumbled to myself before looking up into the face of a very shocked Tommy Lee.
I smirked, flicking his hand playfully. "What, Nikki didn't tell you I was coming?"
He shook his head, "Yeah, but he failed to remind me of exactly how hot you are." He said with a playful smirk as he eyed me up and down.
"You ain't so bad yourself." I said smiling, eyeing him as well. I'd forgotten exactly how good-looking Tommy was!
"Come in!"
I smiled, walking past him into the apartment. I looked around for Slash and Nikki, seeing the two playing cards competitively. "Mind if I join?"
Nikki looked up and smiled. "Sure." He said, dealing me and then Tommy a hand.
"charli's fine with you two moving in. We're moving the furniture around tonight so you guys can move in tomorrow." I said looking at my cards, and jokingly craning my head to attempt to look at Tommy's.
"Hey!" He said, shoving me.
I giggled, sticking my tongue out at him.
"Awesome!" Nikki and Slash said at the same time.
"We'll be there." Nikki said, grinning like a little five-year-old who had just received a new toy.
"Dork." I stated, kicking him in the shin. I then looked over at Slash and gasped.
"Oh my God!!!Can I actually see your face?! It's a sign of theApocalypse!!" I practically screamed.
"Shut up, whore." Slash mumbled.
My hand flew to my chest as my jaw dropped. "That hurt me deeply, Slash. I see how you are."
He just shrugged his shoulders and I pretended to cry.
Tommy hugged me gently, saying "Aww, Izzi, I don't think you're a whore!"
I grinned,patting his arms.
Why did his touching me send chills down my spine and butterflies burst into flight in my stomach?
But I just ignored it and continued to hang out with the three guys until it was only Tommy and i that were still awake.
We were standing out onhis balcony laughing about old times. Well... the ones we could remember, hehe.
"Wow, good times, good times." I said with a huge grin.
"I'm really glad we ran into each other, Izzi. I've really missed you." Tommy said, smiling softly.
I smiled back, noticing how close our faces were. "Yeah. I"ve missed you too, Tommy."
He seemed to widen his smile even more after that, and leaned down, gently pressing his lips against mine.
I pressed myself up against him, kissing him back. Tommy wrapped his arms around me, gently running his hands up and down my back, turning the innocent peck into something much more passionate. My arms wound instinctively around his neck, my fingersrunning through his hair.
After a while, we broke away, and itbegan to dawn on my how late it was. "I should go," I mumbled, rushing into the apartment and grabbing my keys. I ran out the door and down to my car before he had even left the balcony.
I sighed heavilyas I walked into Charli and I's apartment, to see her laying down on the couch, obviously exhausted.
"Nice to see ya home." she grumbled, sounding irritated.
"Uh-huh!" I said, shakily, walking into the kitchen, rummaging around for some cereal.
"You alright?" Charli called, still not moving.
"Sure, sure." I said, trying desperately to control my quivering voice, but failing miserably.
"Cut the shit, Izzi. What happened at Tommy's place?" She was now in the kitchen/dining room area.
I turned my back to her, hiding the blush that was creepingup into my cheeks at the mere mention of his name.
"Nothing did." I said, losing my courage more and more by the second.
"Isabelle."
That's it, I cracked. "We kissed, okay? Tommy and I kissed. I freaked out, and bolted." I looked down at my bowl of Frosted Flakes, cutting up a banana, watching the pieces fall into the bowl one by one.
"What?! You kissed Tommy?!" Her face was one of pure shock.
I cringed. "Yeah..." I mumbled, avoiding looking at her.
There was complete silence.
I finally looked at her with a mouthful of cereal to keep from answering her questions.
She shrugged a bit and said, "Well, Tommy is pretty cute, so...I'd go for it."
Quite frankly, I was shocked. Charli was encouraging this newfound thing with Tommy? Well, she did harbor a major disliking for Nikki because of our past... Wait, what?! Was there even a thing with us? I shook my head of these thoughts and finished off my cereal, dumping the bowl in the sink.
Charli was swaying on the spot, and I sighed, taking her arm gently and leading her into our bedroom.
I don't know how long I laid there, going over the pros and cons of throwing myself into a relationship with Tommy, but I finally fell asleep around dawn.
