“How did you know?” Lacy asks the girl. “Just who are you?”
“I am someone that sees things. I know things. And for starters… I have moved here just for a special purpose.”
“What do you mean?” Lacy asks. She didn’t know who the girl was.
“You need help choosing? Why not choose Robert? He really likes you know? He tried so many times trying to give up on you and go out with other girls. But he couldn’t. And what about you? You tried dating Ronnie but couldn’t stop thinking about Robert. Don’t that tell you that you love Robert? Not Ronnie?”
“You’re wrong! I like Ronnie too!” Lacy glares at Stephanie.
“I am only telling the truth. The way things are going. Just choose Robert. I bet you that you will be with him for a while before anything.” Stephanie smiles a little at Lacy. Lacy didn’t like the smile.
“Look, I don’t need you telling me who I should choose. In fact, it really isn’t any of your damn business!”
“I know it’s not. But I am only here to help. Nothing more. You see, if you choose Robert, Ronnie is going to be very depressed. He really likes you.”
“Then why tell me to choose Robert?! I don’t understand you?!”
“Lacy, you need to choose Robert. Let me take care of Ronnie. Let me be with him.” Hearing Stephanie say that crushed Lacy.
“NO! I love Ronnie! I love Robert too!” Lacy snapped at the girl. “Now get away! Go!” Lacy yelled. Stephanie walked away. “I don’t know who that girl is but I hate her! Her trying to tell me who to date and then telling me that she wants Ronnie?!” Lacy felt angry at Stephanie and didn’t even want to speak to her anymore. She slammed the door and looks down at the floor. “I really do need to choose, but… I honestly don’t know if I love one more than the other or not…”
“I did my best. I don’t think I can do anything anymore. It’s up to her to make a real decision. I guess it’s really time for me to leave now.” Stephanie said and walks away.
In no time, Robert and Ronnie had came to the house. Lacy had let them in and brought them to her bedroom. “Are you finally going to choose one of us?” Ronnie asks. Lacy looks down and then sat on her bed.
“I honestly don’t know who to choose. I really like you both.” Lacy admits.
“That’s not really possible, you know that.” Robert glares at Lacy.
“Making me choose after I just miscarried, I don’t even know what to say or do. Robert, why are you making me choose now?” Lacy looks at Robert. Ronnie looked down. He felt upset hearing about it.
“She miscarried my baby.” Ronnie thought to himself. Lacy looked away again.
“I really don’t know what to say. You both want me to choose. And I… I don’t want to. I can’t stand the idea of hurting any of you.” Lacy felt like she wanted to cry, but tried to hold in the tears.
“Lacy, just choose.” Robert said looking at her. She looked up at him then stood up.
“Alright.” Lacy looks at Robert and then at Ronnie.
“Who do you want to be with?” Ronnie asks. He felt like Lacy was going to choose Robert. She kept being around him more than him, which got him upset and jealous.
“Ronnie, I love you.” Lacy said and walks over to Ronnie. Robert was glaring. Lacy touches Ronnie’s face. “I love you a whole lot.” Lacy kisses Ronnie. Ronnie blushes and kisses her lips back. She moves away from him.
“Lacy?”
“Robert.” Lacy looked at Robert.
“Let me guess, you want him?” Robert asks in a rude way. He was getting jealous and angry. Lacy walks over to Robert.
“I love you Robert.” Lacy says and touches Robert’s face.
“The hell you do.” Robert said and moves her hands off of his face.
“Robert, listen to me!” Lacy glares.
“NO!” Robert snaps at her.
“Dammit! Robert! I love you too!” Lacy forces a kiss on Robert. Ronnie wasn’t sure what to think of Lacy at the moment. Lacy moves her lips off of Robert. Lacy walks backwards to the wall. She was staring at Ronnie and Robert. “I made up my mind.”
“What is it?” Robert asks her.
“I want you both. I can’t decide!”
“You can’t have both you stupid retard! Why do you think you can have both of us?!” Robert says and places his hands on Lacy’s shoulders. Squeezing them.
“Please Robert…” Lacy starts crying. Tears ran down her face.
“Let her go, Robert.” Ronnie says to his brother. Robert lets go of Lacy.
“I know it’s weird. It’s wrong. And I don’t deserve to do this to you both. I really want you both and if you don’t want that. I understand. If you don’t, then we shouldn’t be doing this anymore. No more kisses, sex, nothing. All we can be is just friends. I am not going to choose between you both. If you both don’t want to be with me, then we can only be friends.” Lacy said and wipes her tears from her eyes.
Ronnie hugs Lacy. She blushes as he pulled her close to him. “Lacy, I really love you. From the moment I first met you. I thought you were cute and I wanted to protect you. I guess Robert thought the same thing, I am not exactly sure, but I love you. I think Robert does too. You honestly should just choose one of us so we don’t get jealous and fight. But… I guess you can’t. I don’t know what’s actually going through your mind.”
“I can’t choose! It’s too hard to! And that Stephanie girl was trying to make me choose Robert! I can’t! I can’t not stop thinking of you both!” Lacy admits.
“Wait, Stephanie was here?” Robert asked. Lacy glanced over at Robert.
“Yes, she was. I made her leave because she hurt my feelings.” Lacy replies.
“Something about that girl makes me feel uncomfortable. Somehow she knew things. I don’t think any of us should speak to that girl anymore.” Robert tells Lacy and Ronnie.
“I really don’t know who Stephanie is. I never really spoke to her before.” Ronnie admits the truth. He didn’t speak to Stephanie really. He didn’t know who she was.
“Stephanie is a weird girl. She talks about weird things and honestly I never felt comfortable around her.” Robert explains to Ronnie. “She says she sees things and such. I don’t know how much to explain her.”
“Well, we’re weird too.” Ronnie laughs and lets go of Lacy.
“You both need to make your choice now!” Lacy says. Ronnie stared at her.
“What choice?” Ronnie asks.
“Do you both want to be with me or not? If not then we only can be friends and nothing more.” Lacy said. “It’s your choice.”
“Why are you making us choose over something ridiculous like that?!” Robert says to Lacy.
“Because, you tried to make me choose. Now I am making you both do it. I made my decision. I want to be with you both, but if you both don’t want that, then I can’t be with either of you.” Lacy says and sat down back on her bed. “Now I want you both to decide what’s best for you.”
Ronnie looks down. “I don’t want to be apart from Lacy. I guess I’ll put up with her with Robert. I love Lacy too much. I don’t want to lose her. And that baby we had that passed… I wish… it didn’t.” Ronnie took a deep breath as he thought about it.
“Did you boys make your decision?” Lacy asked.
“I decided that I don’t care. I want to be with you.” Ronnie said and looks at Lacy. She blushes at him. “I love you too much to give you up and I don’t want to see you sad.”
“Robert, what do you choose?” Lacy asks and stared at Robert.
“I don’t want to believe love exists! I don’t! But… I do… I do love Lacy. Ever since I met her. I tried to deny my feelings. My true feelings for her. I tried to play it off as I wasn’t in love that I was only in it for the sex, but that wasn’t true. I care for Lacy. I was so angry with Steven did that to her. I wanted to beat the living shit out of him! And then when Lacy was depressed for losing her baby I still wanted to be with her.” Robert was in deep thought thinking of his decision. “But I really want Lacy all for myself. This isn’t normal for her to be with the both of us. But… then again we aren’t normal people. We try to be different, because we are different. It’s wrong and weird for any of this. But…” Robert stares at Lacy.
“Did you make a decision?” She asks. Ronnie sits down by Lacy on the bed. “Robert?”
“Lacy, you promise not to try to fall in love with anyone else?” Robert asks.
“Look. I had a small crush on Craig, but I don’t love him. I only love the both of you and I don’t think that will change any time soon.” Lacy responds.
“Lacy…” Robert walks over to Lacy and pulled her up from the bed. He brought her close to him. Hugs her. Lacy blushes.
“Lacy. I really love you! I really do! I tried to deny about love existing! I did it because my dad had a terrible marriage with my mother! But I…” Robert was blushing red as he blurted it all out. Lacy blushes more.
“Robert… It’s cute of you to tell me that.” Lacy said looking at him. His face was more red than hers.
“I am not cute.” Robert responds. Lacy laughs and kisses him. He kisses back.
“Where’s my kiss?” Ronnie asks. Lacy stops and looks at Ronnie. “Come here.” Ronnie got up and pulled Lacy away from Robert and kisses her. She felt like she didn’t want this to end. Ever.
