Which one??

Okay this is my first time screening and selecting tenants. Me and my wife were able to buy a duplex, renovate, and raise the rents a considerable amount. We currently have two sets of tenants we are screening. One couple is very clean cut and very nice, both good credit and incomes, their downside; they want a nine month lease vs a year. The next couple want a year or more, the boyfriend is a very respectable guy. However I have not met his girlfriend, his credit is great but hers is poor due to having collections. From someone with experience what would you do? And how do you break the news to the other couple?
