~Chapter 18~
Forever

Chases POV:
I exited the bathroom and I was relieved to see Delilah was no longer on the phone with Charli.

She walked over to me and she looked worried

Delilah: "are you okay?"

I shook my head and then sat down on the couch

I can't do it. I can't get married next week?! I need more time. I'm not ready. I'm still moving on from Charli.

It still hurts. My wedding day is supposed to be the happiest day of my life, How can it be the happiest day of my life when I'm not over another girl.

Delilah sat down next to me and put her hand on my back

I love her so much. Why did I cheat on her? How could I?

Delilah: "what's wrong??"

I feel so bad. I know how excited she was for the wedding.

Chase: "I can't..."
Tears started pouring from my eyes

I feel bad. I feel so bad. I don't want to do this but I have to.

Chase: "I can't get married next week..."

I can't look at her. I won't.

I left my hands on my face

I felt her hand come off of my back and I knew she had to be mad

Chase: "I'm sorry... I'm sorry... I know we can't postpone the wedding but I can't do it next week! Im not ready."

What other excuses can I use? I don't want to lie more then I already have...

Chase: "I want this day to be the happiest day of your life but I can't give that to you if I'm not fully concentrated on you... there's just so much going on right now... I'm just so stressed Delilah. My anxiety is eating me alive and I..."

I covered my mouth and my eyes with my hands trying to cover my sobs

Chase: "I... I want to feel excited... but all I feel is anxious..."

And that isn't a lie...

Chase: "I'm so sorry Delilah... I know how excited you wer-"

She wrapped her arms around me and shook her head

Delilah: "don't be sorry. Of course we will postpone. I didn't realize you were feeling like this, you should've told me."

She's... she's okay with this..?

I wrapped my arms around her and smiled slightly wiping my tears

Delilah: "I won't lie, I was very excited. But mental health comes first. I completely understand if you feel there's too much going on right now."

I'm thankful I will have a wife who is so understanding.

Chase: "I love you"
Delilah: "I love you too"

She kissed my cheek

Delilah: "how's a month from now?"

I nodded

I'd prefer it later but if that's what she wants, I'm fine with that.

Chase: "thank you, Delilah."

She nodded

Delilah: "I just want you to be happy. So if moving our wedding will make you happy then we will do that"
Chase: "thank you..."


Charlis POV:
Once we arrived back at the hospital, I was getting pretty tired. Already. Thanks cancer.
