Chapter 8

I spent ages trying to pick out what to wear. I finally decided on an old pair of Levis, a flowy black top and some heels. Nicky showed me to a table. It was near the stage.. great. "Wish me luck," he whispered in my ear and then kissed my cheek. "Good luck," I replied. I was not looking forward to seeing Jon. 

I looked around the room while waiting for the gig to start - a way to distract myself. There were alot of women of all ages, most wearing Bon Jovi t-shirts, and bored husbands that were dragged here. The room was packed to the brim, if they let another person in the room it would explode. 

Finally the hotel manager, Peter, came on stage. "Let's get this show on the road, well as many as you know Bon Jovi are here tonight and so is the hotel's singer Nicky who is amazing and I want you to stay after Bon Jovi have played and listen to him, believe me you will not regret it.." that made me smile, Nicky was an amazing musician much better than any of the crap ones that are out now. 

I looked up on stage and Peter had gone, Hugh, Dave, Tico and Richie were on stage and ready to begin. Jon ran onto the stage with the same energy he always had when playing a gig. If I fell unconscious right now I would be happy. 

The audience went crazy when he smiled... but then again who didn't? When Jon smiled it felt as if he was smiling at you and only you. But something about his smile didn't seem right.. it seemed fake. His eyes looked sad.

He sang "Lie to Me" "This ain't a love song" "Open all night" "my guitar lies bleeding in my arms" and a beautiful cover of the goo goo dolls "Iris" that had me in tears. I told him it was my favorite song and he sang it.

Jon went and sat at the piano he started to play a beautiful melody in a minor key. 

"Take me back, I love you.

Pity me, I need you.

Yes, I was a fool to let you go,

But without you there's no tomorrow.

I'm a fool to want you,

I'm a fool to hold you,

To want a love that can't be true,

A love that's there for others too,

I need to know that you love me,

I need to know that you need me,

Like every rose needs it's thorn...

Take me back, I need you,

Pity me, I love you.

I know it's wrong, it must be wrong,

but right or wrong I can't carry on without you.." 

His voice cracked on the final word, he then closed his eyes and I saw a tear roll down his cheek. In fact tears were rolling down every man and woman's cheek. It was the most heartbreaking song I had ever heard, with such raw emotion. It sent shivers down my spine.

As Jon left the stage he got a standing ovation. 

 

Chapter 7

The following morning Nicky lay on the bed watching me get dressed. He was looking at my stomach strangley. I chose to ignore it. "Sweetheart, no offence meant but your stomach looks larger than usual.. infact it has for about a month or so.." He told me. I didn't think I had put on any weight, infact I had hardly been eating for the past four months. I turned sideways and looked at my stomach in the mirror. He was right it had gotton bigger. Infact my breasts looked bigger too.

I saw myself turn ghastly pale. Was I....no I couldn't be. "I think I need to go to the doctors.." I said, Nicky looked concerned. "Babe are you ok?" he asked, the worry was evident in his voice. I nodded.

Lucky for me the doctor could see me straight away as he had no other patients. He examined me, "is there any chance you could be pregnant?" he asked. Nicky's face lit up when he heard the doctor ask, he loved children. "It's.. possible" I replied quitely. "Well, we'll do a pregnancy test and see.." he said with a smile.

Turns out I was four months pregnant. Great. I was having a baby. This is amazing, I was having a baby! I couldn't wait, it was meant to be the best experience of your life!

Nicky couldn't stop singing "I'm going to be a daddy, I'm going to be a daddy!" for days! Then came the dreaded Friday. Oh how much I was looking forward to seeing Jon that night...not. I thought I was over Jon, but when I heard him on the raido... I knew I would never be over him.

I lay on the bed resting as Nicky got ready to go to the hotel early. "I have a seat reserved for you, you know I thought Jon Bon Jovi would be some big headed rock star, but he's kinda down to earth." Nicky had met the band earlier that day at the hotel, Jon and himself really hit it off. Nicky turned around, he was laughing to himself. "He had the funniest look on his face when I showed him a picture of my fiance.." Nicky immatated the look Jon had on his face, it was one of surprise. Wait.. did he say fiance? "Fiance?" I said, Nicky's smile grew wider. Before I knew it he was down on one knee. "Becky, I know we havn't been dating all that long, but I love you. Your the mother of my child. I couldn't ask for a better person to spend the rest of my life with than you, Rebecca Jones, will you marry me?" he asked. Marry him?! My head was screaming YES YES! SAY YES YOU FOOL! but my heart was screaming NO! YOU LOVE JON! BUT YOU LOVE NICKY TOO! YES! NO! YES! my heart was all confused. "Yes!" I replied with a smile. Nicky slipped a beautiful ring out of his pocket and placed it on my finger and then kissed me.
