"Stella, I came back because I realized something." Caleb said. I was looking into his gorgeous eyes and he was holding my hands. "I realized that... that I like you. I like you, like you. Like a lot." My eyes widened, and my cheeks turned bright pink. That's when Andy joined in.
"But she's my girlfriend." He said.
"You're his girlfriend?" Caleb asked, shocked.
"No." I said, being honest to Caleb and Andy, but mostly to myself.
"No???" Andy asked.
"We went on one date. But We never became official." I explained.
"Stella, I came back to ask you if you would be my girlfriend." Caleb said. Hope glimmered in his beautiful blue eyes.
"I-I." I stumbled. "I have to think. I'll tell you my choice tomorrow." And just like that, I ran out of the park, and home.
I closed the door behind me with a slam and went to my bedroom for some privacy so that I could think. I just don't know what I think about what's happening. How could I choose between to great guys? I went on my first date with Andy, but Caleb came all the way back here just so he could claim me. I have a lot to think about. That's when Alice came into my room and sat next to me on my bed.
"Hi." I reluctantly said. I didn't really feel like talking to anyone, but I didn't feel like shooing anyone out either.
"Hey girl." She replied. "So, what are your boy problems now?" I looked up at her.
"How did you know I was having boy problems?" I asked.
"It's simple." She replied. "Every girl with boy problems has two glimmers in each eye instead of just one."
How in the world could she figure that out?
"Anyway, what's going on?" She asked. I felt comfterble with Alice. Just like I always did.
"I have to decide between two boys." I said. "I went on a date with Andy yesterday, but then Caleb, the boy of every girl's dreams came back just to claim me. I just don't know what to do. Like if I choose Andy, Caleb will be hurt and I will be hurt, then if I choose Caleb, Andy will be mad at me because he literally thought we were an official couple. But I just don't feel that way about him."
"Well." Alice said. She chewed on her lip. "Just choose you."
"What?"
"Go with the flow I guess. Choose neither of them. Choose yourself. You'll figure it out." With that, she left to help mom with dinner.
~*~*~*~*~*~
The next day was difficult. This is the day I go to tell Andy and Caleb who I chose to be with. Who I wanted to get to know to see if they will be my husband. I would tell them who I wanted to be my boyfriend.
When we all got to the park, I braced myself. I took a deep breath and said,
"Before I tell you who I choose, I want you both to know you are great guys. But it came down to who I think me and him will be best off together. The one who I think God is leading me to. And with that said, I choose-"
Caleb's POV
I sat down in my car and turned the keys in ignition. When I placed my hands on the wheel, I broke down. I was crying, wishing the circumstances were better in my favor. Knowing that Stella Jackson is choosing between me, and Andy, the guy every girl in highschool knows, brought pain to my gut. What are the odds that an amazing girl like her would choose me?
I have had a huge crush on Stella ever since the first time I saw her. She seemed embarrassed around me. I couldn't really tell how she felt about me. So that's why I left to Oregon. I couldn't handle it. I couldn't handle the stress. It was like a pile of bricks laying on my back.
But when I was in Oregon, and I realized that She might be taken. I wanted to have her. Forever. I know, cliche, but I'm serious Stella gets me. She makes me happy.
I rubbed my eyes and drove to the park.
Andy's POV
"Okay Andy, you can go." My mom said, fixing my hair. "But you know that your Father left his will before he died and in it, it said that he wanted you to Marry Sandra. If you go off and get together with this Stella girl, you will be disobeying your fathers will."
"But mom-" I started to explain. But she cut off.
"Yes ma'am." Mom corrected. I reluctantly obeyed.
"Yes ma'am." I waked out the door and headed out t the park.
On the way, I thought about how we met. I had caught her and kept her from falling. For some reason, that seemed like the most romantic moment of my life.
Stella is beautiful. I don't want to marry Sandra. She's not the girl for me. Sandra is too, well, she's too Sandra. I can't stop thinking about Stella. But then again, I knew that she loves Caleb. She has loved him ever since she met him. They grew close, and besides, Caleb is the full package.
