The Choice

Your typical, cliche, love-triangle story. I wrote this as a request from a friend just to shake off my last bit of writers block and was curious what people would think. R&R please. Again, it's very cliche, so if that's your critique, please don't post.

"Well what do expect? You did this to yourself," Resa told me after I explained to her my crisis.

"What? How did I do this to myself?" I asked back, rising anger in my voice.

"Come on Coralie, you started dating Theo just to make Chad jealous, and now you're in love with both of them. That is so totally your fault," Resa replied, that sense of accomplishment in her voice.

I was about to respond, trying to prove her wrong, but then it hit me. She wasn't wrong. She was right. If I hadn't tried to make Chad jealous, then I would never have fallen in love with Theo.

"Hello? Earth to Coralie…"

"Huh? Oh, right. Okay, so maybe this is might fault, but-"

"Maybe? Try definitely! I mean, come on! First you-"

"Resa!"

"Sorry…"

"What am I going to do?"

"Sorry Cory, I don't think I can do anything to help. I've never been in this sort of situation."

"Gee, thanks."

"Sorry. Look I got to go. I'll talk to you later."

"Fine. Whatever. Later."

Resa left and I was alone with my thoughts.

How could this have happened? It wasn't supposed to. Chad and I had such a good relationship. Then he cheated on me…. I thought that maybe if he saw me in the arms of another man then he would take me back and we would have a better relationship. I only chose Theo because he was there. He's always had a crush on me, I figured this way everybody wins. But then I started to get to know Theo. He's just so sweet, and handsome, he's my dream guy. But so is Chad. I didn't even realize how much I loved Theo until Chad asked me to take him back." I'm sorry," he said. "It was a mistake. I didn't realize how much I loved you until I saw you with Theo." My plan worked. Chad loved me. But now I also love Theo. When he heard about what Chad did he came to me and told me that he loved me too. He begged me not to leave him. I said I wouldn't.

Why did this happen to me? What did I do to deserve this? Now I'm in love with two guys. I'm only 19. This is just too much stress. What am I supposed to do.

Then, it hit me.
