-So let me get this straight. Gabriel said he likes you and that he might be in love with you, and that’s why he was acting like a jerk, plus he wants to settle down with you? Cassie said after I told her what happened. I just nodded
-Whoa. Briana said in awe
-And what are you gonna do? I mean yeah sure I didn’t like the idea of you and Derek, but you and Gabriel…I don’t know. Cassie said. The three of us were currently sitting in my dorm and I told them what happened. I didn’t know what to do yet, so no need for the rest girls to know. Yet.
-I’m confused as well. I admitted, soothing my hair
-But you like Gabriel. Briana said and it wasn’t a question so I nodded
-And you like Derek? Briana asked again
-I..i don’t know. I admitted looking down.
-I mean…We have fun together and he know me too well but when Gabriel kisses me…My heart is pounding so hard I think it will break in pieces. When he told me all of this, I couldn’t help but think of us as a couple. He touches me and I shiver. I shook my head
-With Derek…I don’t..i don’t feel like that.
-Then you wanna try this? Be with him? Cassie said looking straight into my eyes. She could read me like an open book. Did i? Did I wanted to give him a chance, to see were this was going?
-Yes. I finally said
-Damn I knew you would end up together. Briana muttered. I smiled at that
-You have to talk to Derek then. Cassie said making a face
-After his fight with Gabriel yesterday? He’ll kill me. I protested
-Yes but what are you gonna do lie to him? Briana asked
-Besides, he broke you heart once remember? My sister said.
And at that moment I realized it. I wanted to be with Gabriel. I wanted to give us a chance. He was different, I could see that. With him I felt…Like I never felt before. With Derek…It just couldn’t work out. I didn’t felt anything when he was kissing me, it was like it was just a routine that I was used to. With a sigh I stood up and took my phone, texting Derek to meet me. This time I would fix things, because I knew what I wanted. This time I was gonna get what I wanted and be honest.
An hour almost later, I was in the park with Derek. Okay I know I said I was gonna be honest but it was hard
-So what do you wanna talk about? He asked starring at me, his hazel eyes confused. Well how do you tell your boyfriend that you’re breaking up with him? I’ve decided not to tell him about Gabriel but I didn’t wanna lie.
-Derek…It’s not working. I started daring a glance to him.
-What? He asked still confused. I waved between us with a sigh
-Us. It’s not…It’s not working. I sigh again
-I gave it a chance but it’s not working. We have fun, and sure you’re a good guy but-
-It’s Gabriel isn’t it? He cut me off
-Wh..what no. I said trying my best to lie
-Don’t lie. Not to me Monica. He said looking away. A few seconds later he hit his fist in the bench we were sitting making me winced a little
-I knew you liked him. He said without looking at me
-I’m sorry. I wanted it, I wanted it to work with us but…It is like a routine, an everyday routine. Gabriel…He was jealous, because…He feel things for me and..And I feel things for him too. I looked at him as he stood up
