Megan's P.O.V

Dylan wants to meet my parents and David wants to marry me. I paced around my bedroom looking for something, anything that could help in this situation. a After David asked, I ran out of the house so quick I'm surprised I didn't catch whiplash.

"You okay baby?"

My mom walked in and I jumped.

"Yeah mom, just some stuff."

"Talk with me, we haven't talked in a long time." I sat on the bed next to my mother and she wrapped her loving arms around me. "Tell me what's going on."

"I have a boyfriend, I love him very much, but being around him can be stressful at times."

"Okay." She nodded for me to continue.

"And this other guy wants to marry me."

"Marry you?"

"Yeah, he's sick and doesn't want to die alone. But he had his chance and I don't want that... him anymore."

"Well, it definitely sounds like you're in between a rock and a hard place."

"What do I do mommy?"

"Who do you love? Who do you think about at night? Who causes your heart to beat funny? Who makes you laugh and smile? That's a decision I can't make for you."

I sighed, "thanks mommy."

"On a completely different note, when did you get a boyfriend?"

"A while ago."

"And why haven't we met him?"

"You could meet him but-"

"But nothing, invite him over to dinner tomorrow."

"Tomorrow! That barely gives me anytime!"

"What do you need time for? Call him tonight and tell him." My mother kissed my head as she walked out of the room.

Why can't life be simple?
