Ethan's P.O.V. 

I stand in a dimly lit room. 

"Choose," a voice booms. I look around. Choose what?

"What am I suppose to choose?" I ask. I get no answer. I ask again. The lights switch from low to high. I shield my eyes with my hands from the light. Once my eyes adjust to the light, I take my hands down. 

The room walls are a dark gray and the floor is white. In front of me stands Grayson to my left and Loreen to my right. They stand about five feet away. 

"Choose," the voice repeats again. 

"Why am I supposed to choose? Choose what?" I ask. I get no answer again. I look around. I look at my hands. Something is there that wasn't there before. A knife sits in my hand. When did that get there?

"It is okay, Ethan. He is your brother. I will be okay," Loreen says. 

"She is your one and only love, bup. I am okay. I understand," Grayson says.

"Choose. Choose between love or family. Choose or you will get neither," the voice says again. 

"I don't want to," I say. 

"You have thirty seconds," the voice says. I hear ticking like a clock. 

I can't lose them both. I can only have one of them. Who do I choose? I love them both. 

My feet start moving towards the person without making a decision. I keep walking until I am standing right in front the person my feet chose. Why am I trusting my body? My hand jerks forward and the knife sinks into their stomach. The ticking stops. 

As I watch the light leave Loreen's eyes, I hold her and fall to the ground with her. The white floor is stained red with Loreen's blood. I just killed my one and only. I choose family. I lost her. 


I jerk awake. I am sweating and breathing heavy. Loreen moves around and looks at me with concern. 

"What's wrong?" she murmurs quietly. 

"Nothing. Nothing," I say. I pull her in and kiss her. She kisses me back tiredly. She pulls back and gets up. I admire her body while she walks into the bathroom. She comes back out a couple minutes later and goes over to her closet. I use the bathroom as well. 

When I come out, she is sitting on her bed on her phone. She is still in her underwear and a baggy shirt. 

Loreen's P.O.V. 

I grab my phone and check the time. I slept for about 3 hours. It is around 2 p.m. 

I got a text. I tap it. It is from Ivory. 

Ivy: Hey, bitch. Where are you? My parents made me start school earlier than they said so I had to start today. I thought you were going to be here. 

I text her back: Hey yeah sorry. I took another day off. 

Ivy: Np. I heard about you and Emily. I saw some video's too. Are you okay?

Lor: Yeah. I'm fine. I'm just fine. 

Ivy: Okay well uh. I need to talk to you after school so can I head over to your house. It is really important and I need to tell you. 

Lor: Yeah come on over. I don't mine. I'll see you in an hour or so?

Ivy: Yeah. cya then?

Lor: ok cya then.

I put my phone down and notice that Ethan has been out of the bathroom. 

"Hey," I say. He must have had a bad dream. I don't know what about, but I hope he is okay.

"Hey," he says.

"What were you dreaming about?" I ask. 

"Ahh," he says scratching his head. "Nothing."

"Oh. Okay. I just wondering," I said. 

"It was nothing," he says. He shakes his head.

"Okay?... Oh, by the way, Ivy is going to be coming over after school because she has to talk to me about something super serious. Just so you know," I tell him. He just says okay. He says that he is going to go to his room and he leaves. I spend the next hour scrolling through instagram.

-------------------------

Ivy walks into my room and sits on my bed. She looks at me. 

"Hey, bitch," I said. 

"Hey," she says. She looks scared and depressed. 

"What's wrong?" I ask. 

"I just don't want to ruin our friendship," she says.

"What's going on?" I ask, getting worried. 

"Please don't get mad," she says.
