Timed Love

Chapter 4

"B-Brent, Chris. Umm hi. What are you guys doing here?" I walked outside and closed the door behind me. I didn't want my mom to hear the conversation I was about to have with my soulmates now did I?

"Jean. I think we have an idea for the way it's gonna be." Brent started and Chris followed.

"What we wanna do is every other weekend, I get to take you on a date-" Chris was cut off.

"And I get to take you on a date. We each get one weekend t-" He was soon cut off by Chris.

"Dude, I want to tell her!" They started to yell at each other. I took my hands and covered their mouths.

"Get on with it guys. Brent, go ahead and tell me. Chris, deal with it." Brent stuck his tongue out at Chris and Chris crossed his arms. Brent continued.

"Okay. So we each get one weekend to take you somewhere nice, to impress you. After about a year....we want you to make a choice."

"What do you mean?" I asked, crossing my arms and tapping my foot on the ground.

Chris spoke up "What he means is, he wants you to choose between the 2 of us. You know, to see which one you want to be with." Chris twirled his thumbs around and looked down.

I sighed "Guys I ju-"

"Please!" They both said simultaneously.

"Just try it for a little at least. Just so we each have a chance to take you on one date." Brent said, staring at me eagerly.

I thought for a moment. Maybe it wouldn't be such a bad idea. It'll make good gossip for April and I. I sighed again. "So who's gonna take me out this weekend?" And placed my hands on my hips and smirked slightly.

They both started to talk over each other again to see who would be first. "O-Okay guys! Shut up!" They obeyed and stood quietly, waiting for me to answer.

"Chris, you're first. It's only Monday, so I'll text you guys each a list of things I like. Okay?" I looked between the 2 of them as they nodded. "Alright. Good." We all stood there quietly for a moment. "You guys wanna hang out for a little bit?" They both nodded eagerly and went went upstairs to my room.

"When we hung out, it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be." I told April as we talked in the phone. This was after the hang out with the guys. "Granted, they would fight with each other over me but that was it. I felt sort of like a slut for this though. I mean, I was sort of flirting with both of them the whole time. One moment I would be laying my head on Chris's shoulder and the next I was cuddling with Brent. I feel horrible for it April."

"That's not your fault Jean. Well i guess you sort of led them on, but you aren't a slut for that. Can you believe how many times I've done that?" She laughs but I don't join her.

"I hate to say it April...but everyone knows that you're a flirt."

"Yeah, I know. It's one of my best qualities." We both laugh hysterically at her comment, after everything that goes on, April is always the one to make me feel better.

Her and I are like how my mom and aunt are. We do just about everything together. She's like my sister. When my mom and aunt were younger, they were already close before their parents even got married. They had been best friends before. Becoming sisters made them closer.

"I think you need a girls night." she said into the phone.

I nodded. "That'd be awesome." I replied.

"I'll be over in 5." I heard the click of the tone and I set my phone down. I quickly walked downstairs to the kitchen to get slumber party essentials. I grabbed candy, popcorn, 2 glasses, soda, and some of our FAVORITE movies that we like to watch together.
