Chapter 4: Realization

I had to think. And I had to do it fast. If I didn't leave, a feud would occur over me and I don't want to be part of it. I mean Fitz had his arm over my chair, which I didn't notice til now. If I stayed, a feud would still go on. Either way, I was trapped.

Eli and Adam gave Fitz one last glare before taking a table in the corner. I looked over at Fitz, whose arm was removed from my chair and he was staring at Nick. His face seemed lost and confused.

"Hey Fitz." I said, breaking the silence that was making my ears bleed.

He didn't respond.

"Fitz." I tried again, waving a hand in his face.

It's official. He's lost in another planet.

Barely a moment later, I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket, indicating I had a text. I pulled my phone out and it vibrated again. I saw I had two texts. One from Eli and another from Alli.

I decided to open Alli's first which said:

Clare, do u see wat this means? Eli is looking u and I can tell he likes u. Fitz is prob in another planet dreaming of u. This means u choose who u want. I kno u want both of them. U like Eli and u like Fitz. So, who u gonna choose, baby daddy or new boy?

I gave Alli a glare before shutting my phone and putting it back in my pocket, without looking at Eli's text. Sad part was that she was right. I liked both of them and I had to make a choice before they fight over me.

Fitz was my second boyfriend and he was the one who helped pick up the pieced after KC broke my heart. He was the one I lost my faith to and the one I have a child with. He was the one who was there for me when my parents divorced, when my sister was raped, and he was there when nobody else was.

Eli is the new kid. The new kid I want to get to know better. The one who I wanted to kiss so bad.

Eli or Fitz? Oh god, this was hard.

Then I thought of Nick. I didn't want him to grow up like me and Fitz. Our parents had divorced. I didn't want him to have separate parents, possible future step parents, knowing that his parents never tried.

But I also wanted someone new. Someone I could start a new future with.

I had to try. For me. For my baby. For my happiness and his.

I walked over to Alli and took Nick from her hold. I kissed him softly on the cheek before whispering, "Mommy's gonna try for you."

"I chose, Alli." I said to her quietly.

"Who?" Alli asked, pretending that she didn't hear my whisper.

"You know who." I said, and started to play with Nick. I bounced him up and down gently.

"Good luck. He better be worth it." Alli said and took a sip of her latte.

"I'm positive." I said confidently and walked over to him and kissed him on the lips with full passion. I caught him off guard but soon we were in synch.
