Chapter 80 - The Diaries

"I've gotta go get Lita, go birthday shopping for Izzy and then call a numerous amount of parents to see if there kids will come. All whilst reading this document to make me a better parent" You sighed.

"Yeah I'm gonna leave you to do all that" Nikki smirked. "You need any money?"

"I'm all set. Maybe tonight we can have that bath listening party we never got to have" You mumbled to him as he kissed you. He went to pull away but you held him close, wrapping your arms around his neck.

"What's that for?" He asked pulling away with a grin.

"Just reminding you of what you get if you don't dye your hair red" You smiled and he rolled his eyes, giving you a quick peck.

"See you later babe" He squeezed your hand as he left the car and walked into the studio.

"I never understood why anyone has kids" Lita scoffed as she picked up the party decorations. "Your child's favourite colours are actually pink and black"

"Pink because it's what her Barbie wears. Black because it's what Nikki wears" You explained absentmindedly as you filled up your cart. You looked at the book aisle and picked up some books.

"Maybe I should release an autobiography" Lita murmured as she went through the celebrity section.

"Aka Lita's black book of horrors" You laughed as you eyed the book. You remembered a long long time ago Nikki wanted to release a book. He hadn't mentioned it since.

"Y'know Nikki wanted to write a book at some point" You mentioned to Lita.

"He used to write diaries from when we lived together right until he got clean. I think he stopped writing when you guys met" Lita mentioned. "Shit we have a storage unit full of old crap from when we lived together."

"Oh my god we have to go" You said excitedly. "Maybe there's some cool stuff in there. Maybe some runaways merch that you don't neeeed?" You gestured with a smile and Lita sighed.

"I forget you were a stalker of mine" Lita shook her head. "After this we'll go, maybe I'll throw in an original pressing."

"Holy shit" You said hugging her with a squeal. "I love you."

"Not enough to give me your husband" She sang as she pushed the cart down the aisle.

You encountered the Barbie aisle and grimaced. There were too many options. Why was a Barbie with a purse so much more than without.

"Why don't you get her this Gene Simmons figure?" Lita asked picking up the toy.

"I wanna say she'll be scared, but probably not. She once found a Freddy Krueger doll and wouldn't give it up. She's a weirdo" You mentioned as you eyed the Barbies. "What's the difference between Barbie and Malibu Stacy?"

"I think they are different girls" Lita said looking at them with you. "I see no difference."

You followed Lita around the storage park as she had her number on a scrap of paper. She found it and unlocked it, pushing open the door.

You were greeted with masses of stuff.  Books, guitars, records, sheets, empty bottles of booze, clothes.

"God I haven't seen this stuff in years" Lita grinned as she walked in and looked at some of the stuff. You eyed the box with Nikki's name on. It was mainly records and T-shirt's. You pulled out the T Rex T-shirt and claimed it as your own.

"Oh shit" Lita grinned as she walked over with a photo album. You looked at the photos of her and Nikki, just in their house having fun. He looked young and wild.
