Nicole's Smoking Story Part 17

Nikki was shocked that her parents were ready to kick her out, but she understood that her lifestyle wasn’t for everyone. She would be going off to Princeton for orientation at the end of the week anyway, so it wasn’t a big deal to her. Since the prom, Nikki had been making a significant amount of money with high school kids. Enough that she could trade her car in for a new Ford Explorer and when she got to New Jersey, Nikki planned to make another purchase. So during her week, she planned so she could get into her apartment at school a month sooner than originally planned, which also meant she could arrange things how she wanted before her roommate arrived.

Prior to that fall, it would have been ecstatic -- and Nikki likely would have been too -- but those days are long passed.

She made the decision to upgrade her plane tickets to first class during the week to avoid going through any fiasco at the airport, but it didn’t change the fact that she would be forced to abstain from smoking for most of the day. Nikki had to make a tough decision while getting ready to leave. She had to decide whether to dress warmly for when the plane landed and tough out the hot sun before getting on the plane or be cold when she got home. In the end, she chose a tight black t-shirt, tucked into a dark blue pair of bootcut jeans and tied together with a thick black leather belt. She also decided on her black high-heeled boots and would carry her leather blazer folded neatly over her arm. When they pulled up to the airport, Nikki chained three cigarettes ...
