// An Encounter //

Chapter 2

Delilah's POV

I woke up to my alarm blaring. I dreaded it but remembered about my date with Matty. I jumped out of bed so quickly not bothering to make it. I practically ran into my bathroom to take a quick shower.

I took my nice shower then wrapped my hair in a towel while I did my makeup. I wanted to look nice but not over do it. I went with my normal routine but with some dark tope eyeshadow in my crease and winged eyeliner. I went with a light pink lip-stain. I liked this. It was something different.

I took down my hair and let it air dry. I put some sea salt wave spray in it and ran my fingers through it. I also put my contacts in. My vision wasn't awful. But it wasn't good. It required glasses. But preferred contacts.

I went to my closet. I really wanted to look nice. My style was pretty casual. Kinda band tee and jeans if it was work. But other places I liked to wear nice Lacey shirts with a cardigan and a nice necklace. But I went for some dark blue skinny jeans with a short sleeved white lacy shirt and a gray cardigan. I put on my black Jeffrey Campbell high heels. I'm pretty short and it gives me a nice boost.

I put on a bracelet and looked in the mirror. I was pretty satisfied with my look. I thought it looked nice but casual.

I looked at the time on my phone.

9:13

I got by bag and rushed to my car. I wasn't gonna be late. But I liked to be a bit early. I drove for about 5 minuets to the brew. ( I just made that name up idk )

I parked and looked back at the time

9:26

I took a deep breath and looked in the mirror making sure everything took good. I reapplied the lip stain and stepped out of the car. I walked in and saw Matty sitting at a table. I was actually surprised. I thought he could have forgot. I probably look d stupid just standing there wondering if I should go up to him.

The. He looked up at me and smiled. He the. Walked over to me.

" hello" he said smiling warmly.

" hi " I said still unsure what to do, I was so nervous.

" you look lovely by the way" he said

" t-thanks " I looked down and smiled.

" you wanna sit down or get some coffee or?" He asked

" Umm.. We can just sit down for now" I smiled

" sounds good" he said walking over to where he was sitting.

I followed and set by bag on the ground. He just kinda looked at me for a moment.

" sorry, your just really beautiful " he said.

I wasn't expecting him to say anything like that. I was surprised. And blushed. Typical.

" awe. Thank you" I said smiling

" you really are, it's kinda early for me to say something. But I couldn't help it" he said.

" it's fine, I don't mind" I chuckled slightly trying to get comfortable and not so tense

" good. So, did you enjoy the show last night?" He asked

" yes! It was amazing!" I said ecstatic.

" good, I'm glad. Very fun show to play." He said

" yes.. So. Um if you don't mind me asking.. Why did you wanna see me again? I didn't think I was that special." I said feeling that was a risky question.

" well, like I said earlier your beautiful. And you seemed to have this type of vibe I really liked." He said playing with his hands.

" r-really?" I asked

" really." He said

We then just talked for what seemed like maybe a hour but it was actually noon. We talked about everything. I really enjoyed it. He was actually a really interesting guy. He told me about his life before the 1975 and he seemed really interested in my life.

" Umm. Would you like to maybe go somewhere else? I'm getting tired of just sitting. Maybe walk around a bit? " he asked

" sure that sounds lovely" I said standing up.

" great!" He says ascending from his seat and walking towards the door. I followed out.

" we could go walk around the beach." He said looking out at the beach.

" yeah, wanna do that?" I said looking at him.

" sure." We then headed across the street to the sandy area. I took off my shoes and socks so I could walk.

we walked in silence for a bit. It was also pretty nice outside. It was kinda windy. The sun was beaming which warmed everything up.

In the corner of my eye I catch Matty staring at me again.

I look over at him and smile.

He smiles back and takes a piece of my hair and tucks it behind my ear. He keeps his hand there but it moved down to my cheek. I was probably blushes like hell. My eyes were forced into him. I just smiled at him awkwardly.

Then he leaned his head in and pressed his soft lips on mine.
