"Yeah, I think I have the same room as last time. It's got a balcony that outlooks the whole city. It's beautiful at night." He said.

"I heard that there are going to be some fire work tonight. How 'bout you and me spend the night out on your balcony, watching the fireworks?"

"Couldn't have said it better myself." He kissed her head, and they walked into the hotel. On their way into the hotel, Chloe thought back to the day while they were in London, where her and Tiff had worked things. She was really happy that they did, because things would have been hard if them didn’t...

Back In London

The nest morning, Tiff woke up in Brian's room, in the other bed. Brian was awake, watching tv. He looked over at her.

"Last night, was... Interesting..." He said, turing towards her.

"I know... We should fool around more often... I did give you a scare though, hun?"

"Yes... Next time you take off my clothes, don't fall asleep two minutes later... " Brian laughed.

"I was tierd okay?!? Give me a break. I had a long day..." Tiff rebutted, as she stretched her arms out. "I have to talk to Chloe today. Tell her I'm sorry. I really don't want a bad summer..."

"Okay. I'll call Nick's room. He'll get her on the phone." Brian reached over and dialed Nick's number.

Chloe woke up by the sound of a telephone ring. Nick was still asleep, not even being botherd by the ringing. Chloe picked up the phone.

"Mmm Hello?" She said, rubbing her eyes.

"Hey, Chloe? This is Brian."

"Oh hey. How's everything? Is Tiff talking to you? You guys getting anywhere?"

"Um, yeah, we're definatly getting somewhere... Um, Chloe, she's really sorry. She's been thinking 'bout this fight all night. She wants to fix the friendship."

"I want to too, but I don't know if she means it..."

"She does. Here's proof."

Tiff picked up the phone. "Hey Chloe, uh, how's everything?"

"Fine... Tiff, I'm really sorry. Can we just put everything behind us? I mean, I know I may have done a few things I shouldn't have, but you should have lightend up a bit..."

"Chloe, I'm sorry too. I dont want to lose my best friend, especially if we're going to be spending the whole summer together. I couldn't live with myself."

"Okay. Then it's settled, we're frineds again... So you aren't mad at me for falling for Nick?" Chloe asked, gently stroaking Nick's face while he slept, stiring a bit with her touch.

"No, I've open my eyes, and I'm sure glad I did... Brian is one hell of a guy..." Tiff replied, smiling at Brian as he sat next to her. "Ok, well, I'll let you go, we can talk more later. I wanna freshen up a bit."

"Okay, oh Tiff, I realy am glad we're friends again... Honest..."

"Me too Chloe, me too..." Tiff hung up the phone and turned to Brian. "Now that that's done, why don't we..." She said, wraping her arms around his neck, pulling him over. She looked at him, and kissed him, wondering how she could have ever over-looked this guy...

Nick stirred a bit, and woke up. He opend his eyes, and the first thing he saw was Chloe. "Hey sweetie... Good morning..."

"Morning to you too..." She said, stroaking his face once again. She bent over and kissed his forehead. "I just got off the phone with Tiif..."

"And???" Nick asked, waking up a bit more.

"Everything's fine. We've worked out our problems, and we're friends again."

"So that means she's fine with you, and me? We can be together in front of her now?"

"Yeah, no need to keep our feelings to ourselves anymore... I don't know what happend, but she seems to have fallen for Brian..."

"Mmm... That's good... You're not going to get jelous that she has your old fav, are you? Not going to go all crazy on me, are you?" Nick said, sitting up and smiling.

"No... Don't worry, I won't get jelouse... I'm with the best guy anyone could ask for..." She said, moving closer to him, sitting on his lap.

"You are??? How do you know that one..." He replied, putting his arms around her waist, holding her closer.

"Why don't you show me..." That was the last thing she said before being swept away by Nick passionate kisses.

Late that night...

Brian and Tiff headed off for their night out on the town, out in one of those many boats, which road through the canals of Venice. They said their good byes to Nick and Chloe, and they were off.

"So, now that we're alone... Shall we?" Nick asked, as the two of them immediatly headed to the hotel elevator. Chlose nodded in agreement, and they headed straight up to Nick's room.

Once in the room, Chloe glanced at the clock. "Nine thirty already?"

"Mmm hmm..." Nick replied, wrapping his arms around Chloe's waist, and gently kissing her neck. "Fireworks start at ten, right?" He asked, resting his head on her shoulder.

"Yeah. There's a bench out there for us to watch them from. We can see the whole sky from out there." Chloe turned around, and wrapped her arms around Nick's body. "You know, this trip, is simply wonderful. I couldn't have asked for a better time."

"Neither could I..." Nick bent down, and kissed Chloe's lips softly, but in time, it became an intense, deep kiss. Chloe simply loved the tast of Nick's kisses, and could never seem to get enough of them.

While they shred this kiss, they both walked over to a couch, and fell back opon it. Chloe ran her hands up and back down Nick's back, slipping her hands underneath his shirt, feeling his bare skin against her hands. Nick's response to this, was to deepen the kiss, only after he effortlessly whisked off his shirt.

Chloe giggled as Nick's hand ran across her stomach, they were sligtly cold, and tickled her. "Nick... If we keep this up, we're not going to get to see those fireworks..." Chloe said, breaking the kiss for a moment.

"So... We'll make our own fireworks..." He said, leaning in for another kiss. Chloe placed her hand over his mouth.

"Sorry baby. I want to see these fireworks. Our own can wait..." She sat up, as did Nick. He knew she was right. He kissed her forehead before getting up from the couch. She watched as Nick went into his bag, and pulled out a sweater. He put it on, and looked over to Chloe, and motioned for her to come over to him.

She got up and headed over to him. Once at his spot, he took hold of her hand, and they walked out to the balcony.

Once the fireworks started, Nick and Chloe had already made their way to the bench, and were laying down on it, Chloe resting against Nick. She sighed, as the multi-colored fireworks lit up the sky. It was almost as if each little spark danced along the dark night sky.

"They're beautiful..." She muttered to Nick.

"I know... I know..." The evening was set. The romantic mood was perfect. Neither one could ask for somethng more.
