"You..." Bel hesitated, pulling streaks of Fran's green hair away from his ear. "You still have a chance, frog."
Hearing those words, Fran's heart sunk to the ground. Does that mean that Kagami won? Against the people whom he knew the best? Perhaps this girl was really strong to the point of freakiness.
"Gomenasei..." He said, bowing to the others in the group. Bel's eyes widened, though still hidden from Fran's sight. "I let you all down... I'm sorry...I'm so sorry..." He stuttered, staggering to his chair beside Bel. What would Belphegor think of him now? Incompetent? He sighed, then noticed the egg that Lussuria had made specially for him. It was heart-shaped.
"Fran-kun...I''m sorry as well. If only I had accepted your illusions...and said that it was what I wanted, maybe you would have won." Lussuria walked over, hands rubbing nervously. Fran smiled at Lussuria's thoughtfulness, but replied with a simple smile, "I would rather have the truth than the net full of lies that bring me up to victory. I will win Kagami, and remain as Bel's fighting partner by myself and my own strength." With that, Fran stalked off into the hall. He didn't feel half as confident as he made himself sound in front of the other Varia members. This girl was strong, so strong... Shi-sho Mukuro would have accepted her gratefully as a student, like her maybe even better than MM and Chrome-chan. He began sulking, and dropped on to the ground in a corner. He thought to himself, "I'm a disgrace to Varia...it'd be better if I left". A hand was suddenly placed on Fran's shoulder, and he jumped up in shock. It was sempai.
"Fran." Bel began, but turned his head away from him, "I... don't know what this feeling is exactly." Fran's heartbeat began rising crazily, bumping so heavily it could have easily fell out of his body and bones.
"Sempai..." Fran whispered, leaning on the wall for support.
"All I know is that...I don't want you to lose... I don't want me to be the prize to a strange girl..." Bel turned his head so his bangs were slightly rising. Fran only wanted to pull apart this man's bangs, to feel his heartbeat, and hold him tightly in his arms forever... but that wouldn't ever happen...Fran suddenly realized what he was thinking, and hit his frog hat to stop it... of course, it didn't hurt at all. Fran reminded himself that he was only fighting so that he could have more interesting scenes of Bel dying, to have more fun bending the prince's knives...to laugh with him, happily. Bel seemed to realize what he had said as well, took in a breath and ran off. Fran tucked his knees in and thought about everything all again. Beru sempai...wanted him to win. So he was going to. He was going to train ten times as hard, a hundred times as hard...just for Beru sempai...
Just to feel the doki doki...once again...and forever and ever...
Doki.
