Hard Love

Chapter 2 : Frances and Domnic

Growing up was tough . It wasn't all roses and rainbows .

Being the oldest of five siblings made me mature and wise. I had it tough, but through the toughest seasons, I had my best friend Domnic .

We met when I was 10, and he was 13 when he came to live with his uncle and aunt, and that's when we became best friends apart from his cousin Grace   who is my first bestie.

Me growing up was memorable cause I had Dominic with me. I became dependent on him .

Everyone in our neighborhood knew him cause he was always thoughtful. Being in  high school was the hardest since he was well known cause of his good  looks and my first crush.

I had girls piling up asking for his number, what he likes and dislikes, and so on.

I just didn't like the attention much , but he would always put me first in everything, I hated it because girls would think that I was dating him and cause a lot of trouble.

Being dependent on him sucks a lot cause as I still remember he left the town without saying goodbye ,no phone calls nothing. That right there what shook me to my core.

Later that year in high school, I started dating Kevin , one of Domnics guy friends . I graduated with honors in high school .

We decided to move to the city . After two years , We saved enough, and I finally decided to go to law school since I have always wanted to become a lawyer.

He was a great guy until I  discovered how he was a married man, so much for the plans and all.

After all that pain, the only person I knew I had to call was that one person who knew me well ,Domnic.
Should I call him , me thinking to myself. What about if he's married ?

After a few seconds of contemplating, I decided to give him a call on his old number.
*tring * tring  *
"Fran". Domnic replied, just hearing his voice made me cry more.
"Dom , I am sorry for calling at this time, are....."
"Fran, where you at ? Tell me now.
" No, leave it. I am coming right now. Stay exactly where you are !, "  He answered rapidly.

Before I could answer or reply, he had turned off the phone.
That's how I ended up in Domnics' house .

Two weeks after leaving Kevin.

As I turned on the television, the tv announcer was anonouncing ,  the handsome bachelor Kevin Romero was off the market and will be getting married to the American  heirrous Layla Smith, before I could hear another word concerning the wedding,  Domnic had turned off the Televison.

" Fran! You know what, Fran? we're going out tonight. " Domnic said out loud. Oh no ! What did I just hear .

The last thing I want is to go out with Domnic.
I literally couldn't say no, and plus, I wanted something to just take away my focus.

Domnic waited for me downstairs .He gazingly stared intently at me,heat spread all over my body .

"Damn, this guy had just gotten more sexy and hot with his chiseled jaw ,muscular arms ripping through the suit he was wearing and silky hair, I thought to myself." Waiting for his reply, but got none.

As we entered the club , he took me straight to the VIP lounge. Oh no, here we go again, girls staring at me like they want to pluck out my eyes . High school replica over again .

Not only the girls,  but hunky guys, were staring, and damn yes did we dress  to kill, I was confident with my nice figure, not gonna lie about that.

Domnics POV

Hearing the one only voice I yearned  for years made me run straigh to her , the one and only Frances ,my best friend ,my comfort zone,I have always felt safe around her .

Well, Kevin called me about Frances,  I dropped everything to just pick her up.
I suggested that we go out. I am taking her to one of the clubs I own, thinking as  she left to go get ready,cant wait to have fun with her again .

I was ready ,waiting for her to come, as she came down the stairs, I just couldn't get my eyes off her,  damn did she just dress to kill, beautiful ,hot,what am I thinking,  I haven't thought of Frances this kind of way ,this is new!.

I wanted to yell at her to change her clothes, but I'm just going to keep my damn mouth shut .My possessive instinct just got activated.

As I took Frances to the VIP lounge , I just couldn't get my eyes off her ass. I can't wait to taste that, I thought to myself . Did I just think of tasting her !Dude , get your head straight !she's not a piece of meat , She's your best friend, I told myself. My cock twitching,shit ,I muttered to myself.

I ordered our drinks , getting stares and gazes everywhere , girls forcing themselves was infuriating,  my sole focus is Fran, if she wasn't here I would take one of this bimbos home.

I signaled to my bodyguards to help clear the way as I brought the drinks over to her . She started taking the first shot, second shot, "Heh, hey, slow down .." I said .

I took my share of alcohol! I started the conversation.  " I miss this, Fran... I'm sorry about leaving you without saying goodbye, " I said regretfully.

" Don't worry, Dom, I am prone to people leaving me , I don't deserve anyone's love,"  she stated. Drunkenly! Okay, she's had enough . I stated .
" we've had enough for tonight. We're going back home !" I stated,  carrying her.

" No ! Don't spoil the fun. We're just getting started , "she said slurrily while laughing at the same time on my back .

We came out of the club and into the car , I left her in the passenger seat and told the driver to take us home.
As we reached the front of my house ,I carried her straight up to the bedroom .
