Driving home later, was.... quiet. Normally I was blaring music and singing along, but I was feeling to tense to listen to the radio. After getting the letter from Clifford, ( Because I knew it was him ) I didn't tell anybody about it. I know I should've, but I didn't want to worry my brothers, the people from work or Delilah. I can take care of myself. I could keep this undercover, until it takes a bad turn.
I walked into my flat with a frown on my face, I haven't even seen Del yet and I was already feeling guilty. I could tell she was cooking though, she was one of the best cooks. " Mel! I hope you're hungry, we're having... What's wrong? " she questioned with a worrying look, I let out a deep sigh " Nothing, I'm just tired and I've had a long day ". She stared at me for a few seconds, she always did that. She slowly nodded walking back to the kitchen, I followed. She had made a 3 course meal, " What's the special occasion? " I asked with a smirk. " Nothing, it's just that... We've both been working hard, I barely see my best friend anymore... And I got a promotion at work, I'm the head journalist now! " she exclaimed in pure excitement, I smiled " Well Congratulations Del ". She smiled slightly " Yeah, well. I just wanted to have a girls night with you, No boys, no talking about work. Just dinner, wine and a few season's of Pretty Little Liars ", I rolled my eyes and groaned " Del, you know I don't like that show... but for you, I guess I can live through a few episodes " . She smiled and cheered like a child, " Just let me change into something comfier " I smiled as I walked out of the kitchen.
When I opened my bedroom door I noticed again that something was off, there was a pile of mail on my bed and when I left for work, there was nothing on my bed. Without touching any of the envelopes, I quickly changed into an oversized baseball t shirt that used to be Sean's, but I could never get rid of it for some reason. I also put on a pair of black shorts, I then walked back into the kitchen. " Hey D, did you put all the mail on my bed? " I asked as I chewed at my bottom lip, she nodded " Yeah, the box was full ". I smirked covering up my worries " That's because last week, on Saturday. When you were out with my brother, I stayed up until 4 am, ordering pillows, mugs and shoe's off of the internet. So those must be the bills ", she chuckled as she shook her head. " That's why I love you Mel, but why do you still have Sean's shirt... I thought you got rid of it " she complained, I shrugged leaning on the counter. " Del, it's comfy! " I whined, she nodded as dished out the food. She had made Salad, Pasta and well, she bought us a cheesecake.
" So, are you coming out with us this weekend? " she asked as she dug into her salad, I looked at her confused " Huh? ". " We're going out to celebrate this weekend and Logan wants you to meet someone other than Sean " she sighed, I rolled my eyes and scoffed loudly " Oh yeah, meeting someone in a club is so much better than being with Sean ". She sighed " Yeah, Sean isn't a good guy. You deserve so much better than him ", I shook my head sighing. It's not that I didn't believe her, I know I deserved better than Sean. It's just... I didn't believe that I deserved to be loved, I didn't need a man to be happy. " Not interested, I don't need a man " I stated taking a bite of pasta, she rolled her eyes " Oh come on! If you don't need a man, then why do you keep going back to Sean? ". I smirked " Girl, I think you know why... I'm a grown ass woman, every now and then, I need a hookup ", she let out a small chuckle " So, you're using him for sex? ". I smiled " Basically, but don't you dare tell Logan, he'll freak the hell out ", she shook her head " Deal, so are you gonna come to the club with us? ". I smiled slightly " I guess ", she pumped her fist in the air a few times, before stuffing another bite of salad into her mouth.
An hour and sink full of dirty dishes later, we were sitting on the couch with our duevt's and glasses half full of wine. " So, I thought Cole was sleeping on our sofa tonight? " I asked taking a sip of my second glass of wine, she shook her head " He's already made up with Lacie ". I chuckled ( Typical ), we sat there and watched a few episodes of Pretty Little Liars. By 10 pm, I was bored out of my mind, but the doorbell soon rang through the flat. " I got it! " I exclaimed springing up and practically running to the door, when I opened it, our post lady stood there. It was awfully late for a deliver, " Hello Susan, working late? " I smiled. She shrugged slightly giving me a warm smile " This envelope was asked to be delivered at this time ", I let out a deep sigh and signed for it. " Have a good night Susan " I smiled as I shut the door, it was another large envelope, like the one that was on my desk earlier. Since it was for me, I ripped that sucker open. Inside , was another photograph. It was of my room, only a few hours ago, when I was changing into Sean's T- shirt, the note that was with it read _ I feel you're in danger, don't worry. I'm alway's watching - M.C _. I threw the photo and the letter to the ground and sprinted into my bedroom, Delilah quickly followed me. " What the hell is going on? " she shouted at me, I completely ignored her as I started tearing my room apart. I was looking for some sign that Someone had been in my flat, I didn't care what I had to destroy.
