Defying fate [ Stefan Salvatore x oc]

05. "You're undead to me."

Delilah woke up feeling good. Apart from her fight with Stefan, her life was going back to normal (or so she thought). However, her good mood was immediately ruined when she heard Elena talking to Vicki on the bathroom. Elena barged in Delilah's room just a few seconds later, clearly annoyed. "We need to talk to Jenna." The girl didn't even have time to get dressed before she was dragged downstairs by Elena.

"Jenna. Are you aware of what's going on upstairs?" Elena wondered and Jenna nodded in response. " And you have no objection?"

"He could be craftier about it. At least make an effort to sneak her in and out." Jenna had a point, but it still wasn't pleasant running into Vicki on their own bathroom. And apparently, Elena didn't like Vicki any more than Delilah did. "Oh and just so you know, I won't be home for dinner." Delilah and Elena chuckled.

"So you're actually gonna do it. You're gonna go out with Logan." Delilah said excitedly, as she made coffee.

"I'm gonna show up and torture him, yes." Jenna then looked directly at Delilah. "Have you heard from Stefan?"

"Not since he left that very vague message three days ago." She shrugged and leaned against the counter.

"Haven't you called him?" Elena asked there other Gilbert girl. Even though Delilah denied it, she knew her cousin was interested in Stefan.

"Nope. And I won't." She said, avoiding looking at Elena.

"And you're okay with everything?" Jenna wondered, as she started cleaning up the table.

"Why wouldn't I be? He's not my boyfriend." She grabbed her mug of coffee and left to her room.

"The sexy suds car wash is tomorrow. The football team and the band have committed. Well, not all the band. Just the ones who can pull off a bikini. I want in-your-face sexy. I mean, it's a fundraiser, for God's sake." Delilah gave Caroline a thumbs up and walked away before she could start speaking again. She didn't care about the car wash at all, but as a cheerleader, she was obligated to go. She ran into Stefan on her way to her locker.

"What's up?" Delilah asked, seemingly unbothered.

"I'm sorry. About how I reacted on the dance floor and about the vague message I left and about not saying anything after. I was dealing with Damon." She raised an eyebrow and continued heading to her locker.

"And did you deal with Damon?" She wondered, not knowing exactly what «dealing with Damon» was supposed to mean.

"Yes, I did." He confirmed, following the girl to her locker.

"For four days ?" She wondered out loud. Delilah knew Stefan and Damon had a complicated relationship, but four days to «deal with Damon» seemed like a reach.

"You have every right to be upset with me." Delilah scoffed and shook her head. He was unbelievable. Easy to say after he messed up big time.

"No, actually, I don't. Because as you made sure to mention, I am not your girlfriend. And you don't owe me anything." She closed her locker and start walking to her next class. He stopped her by putting his hand on her shoulder.

"I gotta go home after school, but The Grill around 4:00? Please?" Delilah sighed and nodded.

"Fine. But be there on time."

"And there's Vicki all nonchalant in the bathroom like it's no big deal that they're hooking up." Delilah was leaning on the pool's table.
