Chapter Five
"Wow. That was some movie. I loved the action." Nick's eyes were wild with excitement. I couldn't help but laugh.
"Well, boys, I should get to bed now. I had a lot of fun." With that each of the guys hugged me and went to their tents.
Brian kissed my cheek. He whispered in my ear, "You ok?" I nodded and told him goodnight.
Nick remained. "Need something, Nickolas?"
"I just wanted you to know that I enjoyed spending the day with you." He looked down at his hands as he spoke.
"I've had fun." I slid my hands into his and looked up into his eyes. I stood up on my toes. My being only 5'2" tall didn't help any. He leaned down and touched his lips to mine. It was so soft and gentle.
"Goodnight, Nickolas." With that I crawled into my tent and fell asleep thinking of Nick.

"Over the next few days Nick and I did a lot together. I was definitely falling for him. We went boating, sat on the beach, went swimming, had picnics. Just about everything.
Each night I would tell Nick goodnight, but I would stay up and sit at the picnic table. Brian would come outside and we would talk for hours. Nick and I had a relationship forming, and Brian was quickly becoming my best friend.
I told Brian everything about myself. He knew secrets no one else did. I truly cared for these men. It was difficult to think that I'd be leaving in two days. I doubted that anything would happen after that, and it saddened me.

"Nik, you ready to go?"
"Go where?" My mother frowned slightly.
"It's our last day here. We're all going to town to see what movies are playing."
"Oh, Mom. I have plans for tonight."
"These secret friends of yours again?" She didn't even give me time to respond. "This is a family vacation. We have to at least spend the last day together. You can see your friends when we get back."
I smiled at that and climbed into our van to leave.

"So, Nicky Boy. What do you have planned for your last night with Nikki? A devilish smile played on AJ's lips as Nick punched him playfully on the arm.
"Nothing like you're thinking, but I don't think it's going to be our last night together. I want to keep seeing her after we leave. I'm going to take her to the beach to lay under the stars."
"Awww...our baby bro is becoming a romantic."
"Very funny, Bri. I just like her a lot. I want it to be special."
