CHAPTER 8
"The desire is not enough"
"Holy Heaven, I can hardly feel my legs!" - exclaimed BJ, when she, Nick and Franky was on the way to home.
"That's right! Next time you won't come with me! That was your last trip!" - was teasing sister Nick.
"Ha - BJ laughed - I don't need your opinion anymore... Kevin said he'd take care about me"
"Sure he would! - Nick laughed also - I hope he didn't promise you anything else, cause he's known as being very forgetful"
"Shut up!" - said BJ, while Nick was laughing.
When the entered house, BJ headed to her room and Nick went to kitchen for a glass of "Coke". Franky sat on the sofa in hall and she seemed like being very lonely. At least maybe she was really, or maybe she was just pretending. There was no matter. When Nick went outta kitchen and headed to his room, Franky suddenly called:
"Nick..."
"Yes?" - he turned to her.
"Can I talk to you?"
"French... It's too late now and..."
"Please..." - she was begging Nick not only by words but also by her eyes.
"Uh... Okay French! What's that about?"
"Can we go to the another place?"
"Like what?"
"Beach" - her eyes were sparkling. Nick looked at her and felt nothing to that pretty girl. And he was amazed by the fact he didn't feel anything to Franceska Gallagher.
After 10 minutes there were on the beach. Waves, moon and stars, night sky, little breeze and oceanic wind, soft and silky. That was like a paradise. Franceska enjoyed every detail of it, but Nick wished only for Alsie being there with him.
"Remember that night, when we escaped from our friends just here and enjoyed all our little night world?" - asked she quietly.
"Yes, I remember that, Franky. Is that all you wanna talk about?" - Nick looked at her seriously.
"I also wanna notice that BSB were very kind to me. I'm pleased they remember me still"
"Forget you? You're kidding! - Nick smiled - Besides, they are fond of girls"
"You have great friends, Nicker"
"I know that! My guys are really Great!"
"You seem to love them a lot, ah?"
"Surely I do love them strongly, Franky. They are the main part of my life, my work and me myself" - he looked at the ocean. He looked so romantic and handsome then, that Franky felt a strong desire to kiss him.
"Nick...hmmm... I wonder... Did you have something serious after me?"
"What are you talking about?" - pretending Nick.
"Hey stop! You know what I'm talking about!" - she looked at him.
He didn't say anything.
"So?"
"So what?"
"Did you?"
"Well... not just after you, but later... Yes I did" - answered Nick after a little pause.
"You know Nick... I think we're friends, yeah? - asked him Franky. Nick nodded - So, you can tell me anything you want. I've been knowing you for ages!"
"And what's from that?"
"So... Did it was too much serious?"
"Well... kinda... Yeah it was"
"How much strong? More much stronger than it was between us?"
"Well... I donno... And why do you want to know?"
"Well... Let's say personal curiosity"
"What?" - Nick laughed.
"Nick... I know that's corny... but I'm still care about you, I mean it"
"Really?"- Nick did a sarcastic glance.
"Yes. Nicker. - Franky looked at his blue eyes - You know I can see the stars in your eyes"
"Stop that Franky - interrupted her Nick, he was half smiling - I'm tired of being your toy boy"
"Excuse me... I didn't play with you, you played with me"
"Jeez... French. Let's stop that!"
"Sure. There's no matter whose guilt it was... Now there's no matter... We can built it again" - she approached close to him and gave Nick a deep and passionate kiss. Nick didn't answer on kiss.
"What's happening Nicker? You've always wanted and loved only me, haven't you?" - Franceska smiled, staying close to Nick and playing with his lips by her finger.
"Yes you're right Franky. I did. I loved only you, and nobody else. - he pushed out her finger - But now everything's changed. I don't love you anymore... I realized it only today. And you know that's cool, to be outta the love with you"
"Great Joke Nicker!" - laughed Franceska.
"I'm not kidding, French. I love another girl"
She was shocked. Firstly she thought Nick was just checking on her, but then she found out he was more than serious.
"Do I have any chance?"
"As being my sweetheart again? Nope, sorry!" - frankly answered Nick.
"Holy shit. I can't believe it! You can't..."
"Yes I can, French. I'm in love, but now with you"
"Are you doing that especially to make me jealous? - she smiled with isteric smile at him - Well... You've got your point. I'm jealous about you"
"Well... Franky I'd love to hear it a couple months ago, but now... Sorry" - Nick shrugged.
"You're... - Franky was in despair. But then she suddenly looked straight in Nick's eyes - I will fight for you"
"You don't need to - took a breathe Nick - She doesn't wanna even see me or hear about me" - with that words he turned around and headed to mansion.
"Nick I want you back - said Franky quitely, but Nick heard that - I want you Nick, forgive me, I was such a fool, please... baby"
"French... - Nick turned to her - Forget about me! I'm lost! - She noticed the pain in Nick's eyes - Your desire isn't enough to return all we had. It's too late! Nobody on Earth can compare with Alsie for me"
"Jeez... Does she mean so much for you as I think?"
"Much more, French"
"But you can't love her stronger than you loved me"
"I can, Franceska, I already love her more than you, I think... But I can't compare... You're different, but both are precious for me. You were the main person int my past, she's the main person in present"
"Nick... I can't believe..."
"Why did you come, Franceska?"
"I wanted to get you back! That's the main reason"
"Well... You can go back, French. You won't be able to turn back time and return our relationships"
"I'll try, Nick. You'll see... You still love me, but you don't wanna confess it"
"Poor Franceska! - Nick sadly laughed - Where have you been with that believe and that words 5 moths ago? I felt sorry now about you. All I can offer to you is my friendship"
"I don't need your friendship... It's too miserable for me"
"Well... Then sorry, can't help you with anything" - and he went away from her.
Franceska was shocked that's why she kept staying there alone. Nobody could see as later she sat down the sand and stopped her glance on big waves of ocean. At that moment she hated all world, but most of all - herself.
