Title: Coming To The End
Author: Jaxson K.
Pairing: Nick/Greg
Rating: PG

Nick was afraid he was losing his mind. He felt that way because it seemed that no matter what he did, or tried to do, he couldn't seem to get it through his head that Greg was with someone else now, and that the two of them were really through. He spent his days at work going through the motions, and his nights were spent pacing up and down the hall talking to the walls.

 

After all the years they had been together and all the things they had been through, Nick never dreamed that things would end the way they had. When he discovered Greg's infidelity, he was numb. To his credit, Nick did his best to remain civil to Greg and to be as mature as he possible could about the situation. That was on the outside. On the inside, Nick was pissed, hurt, and felt so alone.

 

Work was really hard for Nick. He wouldn't even talk to his friends about the situation. When word got around that he and Greg had broken up, Nick just said that it was for the best, and when asked why it happened, Nick just replied that they had grown apart. He was afraid to tell them that Greg had found someone else. He and Greg treated each other professionally, and made it seem as if the break-up was amicable.

 

At home was a different story for Nick. He tried to keep busy, but there was so much distracting him. Random thoughts of Greg would come into his mind, and he would remember things they had done together. He went to some of the places they used to go remembering fun times they had together. But the one thing that kept going through Nick's mind was “Why?”

 

Nick never could understand why Greg would want someone else. He had tried to be a good partner to Greg. He didn't cheat, or lie, and he always tried to treat Greg good. Sure, they argued, but so did most couples. The things they usually argued about were things that were resolved easily, and they didn't stay mad at each other for very long. Nick knew that the question of “why?” would always bother him.

 

Nick also knew that he was going to have to take the bull by the horns and start the process of getting on with his life. He knew that it would be a long time before he got involved again, and IF he did, he was going to do his level best to make sure it was with someone who deserved him.....

 

THE END

That was so sad. :( Just like Nick, I'm wondering why. I'm happy Nick decided to get on with his life and find someone who deserves him. :)

Hon, I'm still not sure why myself. Once I (Nick) found out what Randy (Greg) was doing what he was doing, all I could do was maintain. It's hard to know that after 17 years, they want someone else. I'm nowhere near ready for someone else. I just need a little peace. Love, Jaxson

Jaxon, baby. I'm so, so sorry to hear this was written from personal experience. 17 years is an awfully long time to be with someone. The least Randy (Greg) could have done was to give you (Nick) the respect to tell you that he was leaving and wasn't happy before he found someone else. And, to just leave without an explanation is just unacceptable!

Keep your chin up, babe.

Dearest Ally! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your kindness and your understanding. I do know why Randy (Greg) left, but I'm too embarrassed to say. Guess I should have came up with a reason for our (Nicky & Greggo). Maybe I will feel up to a small sequel soon and will be able to come up with a reason for Greggo to have done what he did.....Love, Jaxson;)

Well, whatever the reason, love is love. It's either there or not. No in between. You should never be embarrassed. Love should be unconditional.

I hope you find the peace you're looking for, Jaxon.

I'm looking forward to reading a sequel. I'd like to know what Greg's reason was for doing what he did.

Thank you for the encouragement and the kindness. It means a lot right now. There may be a sequel, I'm just not sure yet. I will let you and Ally know ahead of time if there is..... Love, Jaxson;)
