"Christopher, necesito que me dejes ir." I told him while struggling to get out of his hold.

"Escogiste a Joel, ¿no?" He asked me while letting me go.

"Te contaré el lunes después de que vuelva de vacaciones." I said looking at him and leaving him in my room.

I walked into the living  room and sat in a corner while everyone just stared at me. I ignored them and plugged in my headphones. "Purpose" by Justin Bieber came on and I was singing to it:

"Feeling like I'm breathing my last breath

Feeling like I'm walking my last steps

Look at all of these tears I've wept

Look at all the promises that I've kept  

  I put my heart into your hands
Here's my soul to keep
I let you in with all that I can
You're not hard to reach
And you've blessed me with the best gift
That I've ever known
You give me purpose
Yeah, you've given me purpose."  

I had my eyes closed but I felt someone sit next to me and I continued to sing, it wasn't until I heard the person next to me singing that I had​ stopped to listen.

I opened my eyes and I looked to my left and Richard was sitting next to me while singing with me.

He sing the next verse:

"Thinking my journey's come to an end, oh

Sending out a farewell to my friends

Forever peace

Ask you to forgive me for my sins

Oh would you please?

I'm more than grateful for the time we spent

My spirit's at ease"

After that verse Joel sat in front of me and we both sing the verse together:

"I put my heart into your hands

Learn the lessons you teach

No matter when, wherever I am

You're not hard to reach

And you've given me the best gift

That I've ever known

You give me purpose everyday

You give me purpose in every way." 

We sat like this until the song was over.

"Potato, what's wrong?" Joel asked me.

"Nothing King Potato" I said to him, half smiling.

Christopher walking back into the living room and sat next to Sofia. Sofia was on her phone doing something and showing Chris something.

My phone vibrated and I checked it..... It was a video of Richard, Joel and I singing.

"Just think about it,babe. Please? This could be your next YouTube video since you have to upload tomorrow." Sofia said.

"Shit I forgot to record anything...... Sofia I owe you big time for this." I told her.

"Are you guys fine with my uploading it?" I asked Joel and Richard.

"Hell go for it, princess." Richard said.

"Yea Potato go for it." Joel said.

"Ohh how about my next video after this one, I have all of you in my video?" I asked them.

Erick, Zabdiel, Richard and Joel agreed but Christopher stayed quiet.

"Christopher acepta el video." I said to him while begging.

"Ustedes pueden hacer el video pero no voy a estar en él." He said while getting up and walking out of the apartment.

I got up and followed him outside, he was almost down the hall when I caught up to him. I grabbed his hand and waited for him to turn around but he never did.

"Christopher, no puedes seguir huyendo de mí." I said as I wrap my arms around his waist. "Si realmente quieres saber a quien elijo, te diré." I told him while leaning my head against his back.

"Yo no elegí a nadie, los amo a los dos y no quiero ser la persona que termina una amistad." I said whispering, beginning to cry.

"He estado en esta posición para elegir entre dos personas muy importantes y ahora tengo a Sofía." I continued to talk. "Si no quieres hablar conmigo, está bien, pero sé que te quiero mucho." I kissed his back and began to walk away.

"Realmente te amo Christopher." I turned away and walked towards the apartment. I felt arms wrapping around my body, I looked down and noticed Christopher's tattoos and broke down crying in his arms.

"Lo siento por hacerte elegir, mi princesa." He said kissing the back of my head. "Sé que en el fondo, eligió a alguien, simplemente no quiere hacernos daño.Sé que no dejaré de intentar ganarte" He said and turned me around. 

"Sé que no quiero elegir." I said to him, I went to go kiss his cheek but he moved his head. Christopher was the first to let go and I walked away without saying anything.

I walked past everyone in the living room and locked myself in my room and got into the shower and began to cry. I stayed in the shower until my fingers looked like prunes, once I got out I changed into another big shirt and laid in bed.

-knock knock-

"Lisa, please let me in, baby I beg you." I heard Joel say

"Potato princess please let us in." Richard said.

I know Sofia will find the spare key to my room and open the door but I stood still, I didn't want to move. Sofia rattled the door knob and finally got it to open. Joel ran to my side and looked at me, he knew I was hurting so he didn't say anything but held me in his arms and kissed my forehead.

"Guys, could you please leave us alone for a couple of minutes?' Joel asked.

"Yea sure." Richard said."Sofia,come on, let them talk." He said while pulling her out of the room.

Sofia and Richard walked out and closed the door.

"What's wrong, Princess?" Joel asked me.

"I have to choose between Chris and you but I don't want to." I told him. "My heart is already set on one guy but I don't want to hurt the other person."

"Meaning you made your decision?" Joel asked.

"I did but for right now I won't pick between you two." I said.

Joel kissed my forehead and sighed.He had his forehead leaning against mine.

"I am sorry for putting you in this position, I really am sorry princess." He said.

I leaned up to kiss him on the cheek but he moved and I ended up kissing him on the lips.Joel and I stayed like that until I realized I am following my heart at the moment and not my mind; I was the first to let go.

Joel got up and left, I really need that vacation.... I don't know what do to anymore.
