Girl Corrupted

I think I already had an idea of what she was going to tell me.
Her body language spoke loudly.

"I think I'm in love with you." Desiree announced.
I knew it.

I felt my heart drop to my stomach.
I love Jesse, I really do, but then again,
I started to catch feelings for Desiree as well.

"Maria say something." She demanded.
"I'm sorry. I'm going to be honest with you." I started. "I love Jesse with all my heart, but I'm starting to catch feelings for you too."

Desiree had a slight smile on her face.
At Least I gave her some hope.

"Do you think I will ever have a chance with you?" She questioned.
Damn.
"Honestly Desiree." I began "I really don't know. My feelings are so mixed up right now because of Jesse and Ka---"

She kissed me.
Right in the middle of my sentence,
she kissed me.

"Did that answer your question?" She chuckled.

I just looked at her.
She was stunning.
With her long, curly brown hair, and her hazel eyes, and her amazing body.
But I still wasn't sure.

"I don't know Desiree." I announced. "At least let me straighten things out with Jesse."
"I respect that." She replied.
"Thank you." I said while giving her a hug.

What just took place in this bathroom made me feel like a monster.
It wasn't like I pushed Desiree away like Jesse pushed Karen away.
It's like I wanted to kiss her.
It started to make me reconsider if I should even confront Karen or Jesse about the situation.
The last thing I would wanna be is a hypocrite.
Although I was still livid at the fact that Karen kissed Jesse.

"Let's go to the recreational room." Desiree suggested as I was brushing my teeth.
"Okay." I said with toothpaste all in my mouth.

We rushed out of my room trying to bypass the nurses and guards,
we seriously didn't feel like taking our pills.

"They're still together." Desiree pointed out while walking into the recreational room.
"I see." I responded.
"Maria!" Jesse called.
Fuck.

I looked at Desiree and her facial expression was full of disappointment.
Now that I know she's in love with me, I have to be more considerate of her feelings,
even though I'm still with Jesse.

"I haven't seen you in a while." He announced.
"But you saw me yesterday." I said confused.

Desiree started to laugh.

"Yeah, that's a long time." He replied

I saw Karen staring at us.
And when I say staring, I mean hardcore staring.

"Is there something you like over here?" Desiree called to Karen.
Oh no.

I nudged Desiree in the shoulder.

"Do not speak backstabber." Karen said while walking towards us.
Oh god.

It was just a fight waiting to happen,
any minute, any second.

"Why you comin' over here lookin' like you're about to do something?" Desiree began, "if anyone's a backstabber it's your dumbass."
"DESIREE!" I exclaimed.
"Shh Maria, you know it's the truth." She replied
I couldn't argue with her about that.
"Girls, stop." Jesse argued.
"GUYS STOP WE'RE NOT FIGHTING AGAIN!" I yelled.
"Okay, okay. I have that much respect for you. Unlike Karen." Desiree sneered.

All of us has serious anger problems,
but Desiree's anger is the worse and is very uncontrollable.
She stormed out of the recreational room, and me being Maria, I had to go after her.

"Desiree!" I called.

I eventually caught up to her and grabbed her hand.

"Look at me." I demanded.

She wouldn't look at me.
I grabbed her face and met her eyes with mine.

"I don't like you and Jesse together." She confessed, "I deserve you more then anyone here."
Wow.

Who would be in love with me?
The thought of that made my stomach turn.
I was fucking disgusting, who would want me?

"You're beautiful. You're personality is amazing, and when I'm around you, I'm happy." She assured.
"Thank you Desiree. Thank you so much. But I'm confused right now. I don't know what to do." I replied.
"Be with me. That's what you should do." She suggested.

I've never been in a position like this before.
It was breaking my heart because two people care for me, and I can only choose one.
I hated hurting people.
