"Hey" I heard her say from behind me, guess she's the one would found me. "Hey..." I said cautiously, I really didn't want to give her the wrong impression. "Can we talk?" I asked confidently, I was really just ready to get it over with.

She nodded and I decided we should go to the library instead of my room. We both sat down and she turned towards me, "oh" she said. I assume she read my mind, "yeah..." I said almost sadly. She nodded slowly taking it all in I suppose.

"That's your final decision?" She asked with a little hope in her voice. "Yes. I would never hurt her like that, I love her too much" I said smiling at the thought of Mina. "Well what if... what if we could figure out a way for it to work" she said.

I looked at her curiously and tilted my head, I wasn't understanding at all. "Like ummm, what if we could all be in a relationship. I'd be willing to try it, I just don't want to lose you again. And I'd love to still be your friend but not if there's even the slightest possibility for us to be together" she stated.

Fuck. This was supposed to be easy. "I..." I had no idea what to say to that, I mean I know I didn't want to lose her. I just didn't know if I'd be interested in that but especially how Mina would feel.

"I'll give you time to think" she said more as a statement than a question and then just left. What the fuck?! It was almost dinner so I headed to the dining room to eat. I ate in silence just running through ideas and scenarios in my head. It was giving me a headache.

Dinner passed quickly since I was in my head the entire time. I made my way to our room with Mina walking next to me. I was nervously playing with my hands not knowing how to tell her this now. This was all too much for me to deal with.

We entered the room and I went straight to the bed and laid down. I was strangely exhausted, probably from all the worrying I was doing. I heard Mina approaching the bed but I didn't even have the heart to sit up and face her.

"What's going on darling?" She asked, I sighed and took a deep breath. If I thought anymore about it I wouldn't say it so I was just gonna go for it. "Cordelia talked to me again today a-" she went to cut me off but I stopped her. "Please just let me finish" I said, she sighed and let me keep going.

"She came to talk to me and said that she wanted me to talk to you. About maybe all of us being in a relationship together. It isn't an obligation obviously because I would never do that to you. And she said it would be ok if me and her could just be friends. But that if there was even a slight chance we could be together she would love that. And I figured I should just tell you because I don't want you to think I'm keeping secrets. And it's really been bothering me so that's why I've been like... off... today."

I finally finished my speech and now that the weight was off me I sat up. I wanted to see the look on Mina's face, but when I sat up she had laid down. "Mina?" I whispered, she let out a deep exhale and turned her face towards me.

"I don't really know what you want me to say" she stated. "Whatever you're thinking" I replied quietly, I was scared to say the least. "There has been so much going on, I don't know what I think y/n. What do you think?" She asked somewhat hopefully.

But I couldn't really tell what she was hoping for. "I don't know. You usually always know what to do... so I thought maybe you'd give me something to tell her" I moved to lay next to her. She grabbed my hand and that gave me a lot of comfort.

At least she wasn't mad, or not that mad anyway. "I don't know her like you do y/n. So I can't make this decision for you" she pushed a piece of hair behind my ear as she talked.

"But this is just as much your decision as it is mine. We're both in this relationship and it would change things for the both of us" I said trying to make a point.

"You're right. Honestly, I trust your judgment which isn't typical for me. But I trust you, and whatever you think will work best is what you should do. I just don't want to lose you" she said with tears in her eyes.

"You will NEVER lose me Mina, no matter what, I promise you that" I said firmly. She nodded softly and I decided that I would talk to Cordelia tomorrow. I needed to be here for my girlfriend tonight and Delia could wait until the morning.

I have no idea how I'm going to pull this off. By tomorrow I might have two girlfriends and I felt quite apprehensive about it.
