I had problems like that picking a formal date. Ultimately, who will you have the most fun with? I went with a guy I barely knew and it was awkward and I just wished I didn't have a date. Sometimes its better to go with a good friend then a guy you might like, because it will be less awkward or dramatic.

I know you don't want to hurt anyone, but you have to let them down some how, so just explain the situation and be nice about it. These guys are probably worried about it too, so try to let them know as soon as possible!

You need to take a step back and sort your thoughts out. Stop worrying about what everyone else is going to think of who you choose. This is your date for prom and if it's important to you, you should go with who you really want to go with. You don't want to go with someone out of pity. The first guy doesn't seem like he's really an option since you didn't even mention him at the end and you two haven't talked about it.
So now it's down to Brian and Robby. Wait until tomorrow, and see if Robby asks you. He hasn't asked you yet. If he doesn't ask you tomorrow, go with Brian. You don't want Brian to find someone else to go with and have Robby decide to go with someone else, then you would be dateless. Tell Brian that you want to sleep on it, since he is bothering you about it now.
If Robby asks you and you really want to go with him over Brian, say yes. Brian will have to understand. If you choose to go with Robby, try to find one of your friends that doesn't have a date to go with Brian.
You're only in 10th grade so you still have two proms after this. Don't put so much pressure on yourself to make sure that everyone is happy and with a date. Tell Brian that he already had another date (before they broke up) and that you were wanting to go with Robby. I'm sure he will understand.
Only you know who you really want to go with. But it sounds to me like Robby is the choice, unless he doesn't ask you.
