I spent some time with Leland in my bedroom until my mom went to work. Of course, mom would still be protective and not leave me alone with a boy. Now I was home alone and my mind as racing.
I said I didn't get into religious stuff, although I did believe in a God. There was a God in the heavens above and I do believe there's a reason for everything. I will always keep hope no matter what choice I pick. Maybe I would be happy with Paul... Or maybe I will get my happy ending after all.
I don't think I'll get it if I'm living the never ending cycle or dying and being reborn. I have to break the cycle. Even though I knew being with Paul won't be like being with Leland. When I first seen Leland I was drawn to him, but I felt nothing with Paul. I'll live the life I was meant to live. And I'm going to pray everyday that I will one day get the happy end I so desperately hope for.
"I'm sorry, Leland." I was crying my eyes out. Leland wrapped his arms around me and I sobbed into his chest. Leland lifted my chin up and and gazed into my eyes.
"I will always love you. Only you have my heart. I will keep dragging through this life until you're mine. I promise."
"I promise, I will keep dragging through this life and our next life until I'm yours." I promised this to Leland and I'm going to keep it.
I had picked my choice.... I was going to be with Paul. I was going to live my life until I could be with Leland. I knew deep down (He probably does too) that there might not be an ending where we get to be together. I might just have to be with Paul forever.
I despised that, but what else can I do?
