Those Three Words (ON HOLD)
Both, Please
Three Weeks Later
"So where ya' been lately? You've hardly come to hangout with us. I mean there has to be a reasonable explanation unless you just hate us," Lupul joked.
It's been three weeks since last seeing them. I did see Nazem briefly a couple of times, along with Tyler. I've been too hung on the guilt. It was almost that I had to swear my allegience to one or the other. I couldn't possibly have Nazem and Erik both.
"I've just been very busy." I lied, awfully.
"Whatever you say," Komarov said jokingly. His accent played off his voice, just like mine.
"At least we can spend time with Ms. Popular," Dion joked. I rolled my eyes.
"You guys are so mean," I playfully pouted.

After dinner, now w/ bozak
I sat outside in the cold. I was just so exhausted and confused. I couldn't possibly still lead Nazem on and Erik at the same time. But why Erik? He was the one that broke my heart and quite possibly, didn't like me. Sometimes I felt like I was making an easy situation into a complicated one. If you were smart and not so clueless it would have been an east decision. You pick the guy that's been nothing but nice, sweet and polite with you. Nazem.
Tyler came outside and took a seat next to me. "So, who is he?" He asked. I looked at him confused. "Come on, I'm not dumb. Who's the guy you like?" He repeated.
"It's that noticeable, huh?" I said with a small grin.
"Not really noticeable, but I've just been good with this type of stuff. I'm like a younger version of Dr. Phil," He joked a little. "Not only that, I seen you with Erik Karlsson at Earls'." He shrugged.
I laughed. "Okay Dr.Phil, so you seen me with him. Well to be honest I knew him from back in Sweden. We were off on bad terms and that night you saw me with him and Spezza, we kind of caught up with each other. We decided to have a lunch date I guess. He wanted to become friends again. Now I'm stuck between Nazem and Erik." I summed up. It was hard trying to summarize such a long, dreadful story.
He was quiet. "Well, which one do you like more?" He asked, interested.
"Nazem he's so fun, nice, sweet and he has good looks. Him and I just click you know?" Tyler nodded. "He's sweet, caring and just everything. Erik, I've known him forever. He helped me with my dreams and spending time with his is also nice. But he really hurt me when he called off our friendship for some girl. I care about both of them a lot," I admitted.
"Think of it this way, which one would you spend the rest of your life with?" He asked trying to help out. The wind was so nice, it felt just right. Not too cold, not too warm.
"If I could have both. I really would," I said, jokingly.
"He's noticed, you know that right? Nazem see's you two kind of fading away from each other. He really does like you too, but he prefers to take things slow. I would too if I was him. I mean, it's hard to find a good girl, especially when you have so many throwing themselves at you," He explained. Why did Tyler have to be so wise? I groaned mentally.
I let out a sigh. "I bet you anything Nazem probably hates me by now."
"He doesn't hate you." Tyler corrected.
"I would if I was him."
