Torn Between Two

I was so happy to see that Connor was here. Relief went all threw my body. Matt thought he was the bad guy but look what he just did to me. All of this was making him crazy. He couldn't handle it. Matt was getting out of control.  Maybe if I just hurried up and picked one of them then he wouldn't have it controling him anymore.

Thinking about all of this I didnt realize thsf Matt had let me go. They were yelling at each other over me. I don't know how much more of all this I can take.

"You hurt her, Matt! This whole thing is making you crazy. Stay away from her or I will kill you. Im not playing with you. I'm dead serious about this."

"I didn't hurt her, asswipe. She's fine." Matt spit back.

"Oh, she is? Look at her wrist Matt! Her wrist are bruised!"

Wthout a second thought Matt looked at my wrist the same time I did. He was right, they were bruised. I never quite understood why I bruised so easily. But it didn't hurt. I look back up at Matt and there are tears in his eyes. He looks like he is ashamed of himself.

"Aurora, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you. I'm such a terrible person."

"No. No you're not. You're a wonderful person. You're my best friend and you'll always be, no matter what happens. But I think Connor is right. All this is making you crazy. It's not healthy. I want my best friend back." I say so softly that it could be a whisper.

He took a few steps closer to me. He reaches his arm out and his hand strokes my soft face. "I'm right here. I just lost it a little. It won't happen again. Promise."

Without another word being said we hugged each other leaving what just happened behind us. I hope he is right. I hope that won't ever happen again because for a minute he scared me.

"Are you sure that you're okay?" Connor asked with so much concern.

"I'm fine. It just scared me a little bit. Don't worry about me. I'm a tough girl." I laughed. "Thanks for saving me by the way."

"Well, I couldn't just let him hurt you. You need to be protected and kept safe."

"I know. That's apart of being a werewolf. Protect your mate." I sigh. "I wish I didn't have to choose. Why was I cursed with two guys? I know it's very rare but I hate it."

"Well, think if it as a blessing."

"A blessing? You're joking right? It's more like a curse."

"I'm serious. You have two guys who want you more than anything in this world. Has that ever happened to you before?" He asked.

"Well of course not! If it has I'm sure I would have made a choice by now. This whole thing is stressing me out. How can you pick between two people that you love?"

"You choose the one who makes you the happiest. Follow your heart. Do what it tells you to do. Now let's go get something to eat. I can hear your stomach growling." He laughed as he pushed me a little.

"Hey! No pushing." I tell him. "Okay cause I'm starving."

"I can tell." He smiled.
