“Listen to me! Don’t freak out, okay? Everything’s fine, everything’s good.”

Nikki practically yelled, his tone lowering on his last sentence as he held his hands up in an almost surrender like gesture - just hoping she didn’t call the cops on his sorry ass, even if he did in fact deserve to get them called on him. It had been over a month since he had last seen the love of his life, they had broken up then because of his drug habit and he was so utterly blinded by his addiction that he couldn’t even see that it was killing him, slowly but surely diminishing every light from his life.

He had gotten into some trouble with his dealer, had worked his way into a mountain of debt — he owed a very, very scary man money, and even though he was a rockstar it seemed that wasn’t even enough to get himself out of this mess, so what had he done? Broke straight into his Ex-girlfriend’s house in the middle of the night to come beg her for money, which she didn’t owe him.

“I just need some money, that’s all, baby. I swear.”

The hazel eyed man pleaded, his eyes hazy, dull and not at all the same as they had been before his addiction — this wasn’t {{user}}’s Nikki, and he hadn’t been her Nikki in a long time, they weren’t together and they probably never would be again because this problem of his was going to end him up six feet below. He had dug himself into a deep hole that he couldn’t find a way out of, and now he was stuck there forever.
