If I.

|Chapter 5|

Fran's POV

"Wow" I said, eyes gazing at the beautiful sight in front of me.

"Yeah" Michael muttered, taking a sip of his beer.

I could feel the quick London breeze flow through my hair, sending chills all throughout my body.

"I feel like I'm flying" I breathed opening my arms, letting the feeling take over my body.

"Now that's the beer talking" he laughed, holding his jacket tighter to himself.

"Do you come here often?" I said taking a seat beside him.

He looked over at me and shrugged. "It's my escape from the real world I guess"

"Oh really, an escape from what?"

"More like from who" he said shaking his head.

"Who?"

"Nothing" he said standing up, offering his hand to help me up.

As I got to my feet, his hands went for my cheeks and collided our lips.

"M-Michael" I said pushing at his chest gently.

"I'm sorry! I just... I just wanted to see something" he said putting his head in his hands.

"We just met.." I mumbled, running fingers through my hair, trying to collect myself.

"I know.. I know, it's just, there's this girl, and.... She's with someone else and I can't shake her" he choked back a sob, pulling at his hair. "She's all I think about"

"Oh"

"Yeah.. Oh" he sobbed. "I'm really sorry Fran, it's just you're beautiful, and I thought maybe... If I distracted myself.. I could forget" he slumped back on the floor.

"Listen" I said, ruffling his hair. "It's fine. It's just, we're friends"

"I understand completely" he nodded.

"If you ever need to talk, I'm here"

"Thanks Fran" he hummed, leaning his head on my shoulder.

.............................................

"Thanks for tonight" Michael said rubbing his neck, closing the door behind him.

"Yeah totally"

"See you at school" he said, before turning around, walking back into the house.

Right after him, Amber comes running out squealing.

"So? You and Michael huh" she said wiggling her eyebrows.

I laughed shaking my head.

"Aww why not!"

"We're friends! Just friends!" I said drilling the idea into her head.

She pouted, before saying her goodbyes and running back inside, cursing at the cold weather.

I leaned my head on the steering wheel and started rubbing my temples.

"What is my life" I grumbled.
