Torn Between Two
READING AGE 4+
I met the double trouble brothers back when I transferred schools in 8th grade after surviving a divorce amongst my parents.
One brother, Cole, was all out obnoxious and stubborn with a tendency to wreak havoc, whereas the other, Justin, was the gentle soul.
When I first laid my eyes on Justin, it felt like we were destined to be more than just friends. Cole, however, felt like he was destined to be my bestest friend.
They were both my everything.
We were thick as thieves until the feelings we had between us ruined it all.
I wanted Justin, but he chose another, continuously hurting me. Cole, however, was always there to mend the pieces of my broken heart.
When Justin finally saw me for who I should be to him, it was already too late.
Tragedy struck and we were torn apart only to find each other once again, but now it just isn't the same.
Justin is now an angry, cruel boy, who changed into something darker and meaner. Nothing at all like the boy I knew him to be.
Cole, on the other hand, has grown into something more. No longer obnoxious or arrogant. He is how his brother used to be. Someone kind and gentle and full of love.
Now that I am back, Justin is every bit determined to cause as much pain for me as I did to him.
He looks at me like I am filth on the bottom of his shoe.
He paints the perfect picture of how I chose to leave him, but that is so far from the truth.
Cole makes it his mission to keep me close and protect me from his brothers wrath, promising he'll never let me go, needing me by his side.
I am all conflicted. Torn to say the least.
Question is, how do I fix the part where I am at war with myself between the love I once had for Justin and the love I could have with Cole, without breaking these two brothers apart in the process?

"Soooo, how was the wedding?" Lily comes to sit beside me on the couch, grabbing the remote controller in one hand while holding the huge bowl of popcorn she had just made with the other. I raise my eyebrow, giving her a skeptical look. Eh, got to give it to her. She has been waiting to ask me this question for weeks now. When we arriv……
