Hunter's view:
After Jake left, I stayed in my room trying to wrap my head around my feelings and the whole situation. A tear of frustration fell down my face,that I quickly wiped away,when there was a knock on the door.

"Go away," I yelled.

"Hunter it's Charlie. Please can I come in?" Charlie pleaded.

I sighed and pulled myself off my bed. I opened the door and saw Charlie standing there with a sympathetic look on his face. He opened his arms and embraced me.

"I'm sorry Hunt," he whispered.

"You shouldn't be. This is all my fault. If I never came Jake and Casey would still be friends and me and Barclay wouldn't be fighting," I said,tears forming in my eyes.

"I think I should go back home," I admitted. "Stop all the craziness."

"Are you insane?!" He yelled.

"I think so," I whispered.

"Just give it a few more days. Everything's gonna go back to normal," he tried to reason with me.

"Nothing's ever gonna be normal!! Jake and Casey were best friends until I showed up,now they're tearing at each other's throats. Me and Barclay couldn't be closer,now he can't even look me in the eyes! I want everything to go back to normal but I know it won't until I leave!" I cried out.

I slammed my fist into the wall and fell to ground crying. My mind is spinning. I can't breath or think straight. I'm seeing two of Charlie. Charlie doesn't have a twin,does he? My breath quickened again. Charlie quickly sat down next to me and pulled me close to him. He began to sing quietly to me to try to calm me down which was surprisingly working. My breathing slowed down and I finally pulled myself together enough to stand up. Charlie stood up not long after and hugged me.

"Everything's gonna work out"

God I sure hope he's right...

I stayed in my room thinking about my choices. Maybe Charlie is right. A few more days won't hurt. Maybe I'll even find out which boy I like more. Who knows???

Casey's view:

I was sitting out on the couch when Jake walked out of Hunter's room.

"How dare you do that?!" He screamed at me.

"How dare I do what?" I asked innocently.

"You know exactly what!" He barked.

"Is that jealousy I hear?" I smirked.

He quickly lunged at me and slammed me into a wall. He had me pinned. I tried to move my arms to no avail. We heard a loud crash we made him to lose focus. I took that chance and flipped him to where I had him pinned. He tried to kick at me which only resulted in me pushing my knees into his thighs. He continued to try to kick out from under me and he even spat in my face causing me to punch him in the nose. I pulled my arm back going to get a another punch in but the other boys finally pulled me back.

"Casey? Jake? What the hell happened?" Hunter asked coming out of her room.

"Hunter! I-I," I stammered,not sure on how to explain.

"What happened to Jake?" She demanded,running over to him.

"Come on,Jake,let's go get you cleaned up," she muttered and pulled him to the bathroom,brushing past me.

I screwed up...

Hunter's view:

I took Jake into the back bathroom to clean up his cuts.

"What happened?" I sighed,dabbing his cuts
With alcohol.

He hissed at first then gained his composure.

"I got angry so I went out and yelled at Casey and pinned him against the wall but I lost focus and he flipped it then he punched me," he explained.

"You shouldn't be angry at him. You should be angry at me. I caused this whole mess," I sighed.

"No no. I could never be angry with you," he whispered.

"But I made all of this happen. I made you and your best friend fight!" I cried.

"You're worth it," he whispered.

He began to lean forward and I got lost in his eyes. Our lips touched and he brought me closer. I couldn't help but get lost in the kiss. I felt my mind disappear then Casey reappeared.

I think I've made my choice...

WHAT DO YOU THINK HER CHOICE IS???
