A few days later at lunch, Delilah decided to sit at Maya and Anna's table. Maya was clutching her headphones to her ears and singing some random lyrics to a song that Delilah didn't know of.

"What's wrong with her?" Sam asked, his mouth full.

Anna sighed and took off Maya's headphones. "Mai. What's wrong with you? They wanna know."

"Nothing," Maya mumbled. "It's just my high school boyfriend said, 'every time you hear this song, I want you to think about me breaking up with you, 'cause that's what I'm doing right now.' So now, I keep listening to this song over and over again and I keep thinking about how he broke up with me. So it's just a cycle of listening to this song until I can get him breaking up with me out of my head."

"I knew that dickhead was horrible," Delilah said, shaking her head. "You deserve better than that creep, Maya."

"So, this guy's your boyfriend's best friend?" Sam asked Anna. 

"Yeah. Why?" Anna replied.

"You know the saying, right?" Gabe questioned. "You are what you eat. And Steve is eating Derrick's asshole, so to speak. So if you just draw the connection-"

"So you're saying they're both shitty?" Anna asked, offended.

"I mean, kind of," Gabe shrugged.

"Okay, genius," Anna scoffed. "Thank you so much. You don't know him. Steve isn't Derrick, like..."

"Well," Jafeer muttered. "You guys picked real winners."

Maya went back to humming the song mindlessly as she put on her headphones once again.

"Maya," Sam said, raising his voice as he slammed the table to get her attention. "Maya! Do you wanna like, egg this fucker's house after school?"

"Hell yeah," Delilah grinned. "We have to."

"...Okay," Maya smiled. "Let's do it."

˚ʚ♡ɞ˚

"'Na, he's not coming?" Maya asked as Anna returned back to the group after talking to Steve.

"No," Anna sighed. "We just broke up."

"What?" Delilah scoffed. "That two-faced cunt."

"Are you okay?" Maya said, pulling Anna into a hug.

"Sorry, Anna," Gabe said as Jafeer nodded in agreement. "That sucks."

"It's whatever," Anna said, her voice strained from holding back her tears. "Let's go egg this bitch."

"Alright," Alex grinned, placing his arm over Delilah's shoulder. "Let's go."

As they ran up to Derrick's house, Maya started rummaging through her bag and handed out trays of baby squid.

"Wait, what is this?" Jafeer scoffed. "Ew, oh, my God. Is this baby squid?"

"Are you kidding me, Maya?" Anna groaned as Delilah burst out laughing. "Ew!"

"It was all my mom had!" Maya whined. "It's fine!"

Everyone had to hold back their laughter as Maya threw one of the squids at Derrick's window, with its ink splattering everywhere. They all joined in, throwing them onto the porch, the roof, the windows, and even Derrick's car. However, Derrick and his mom opened the front door just as Delilah threw one, landing right on his face. Maya shrieked and pulled Anna and Delilah's arms.

"Run!" she shouted as she flipped off Derrick and his mom. "Fuck you!"

"Go, go, go!" Shuji laughed. "Oh, shit! My backpack!"

"Eat shit and die, bitch!" Delilah yelled at Derrick as Alex pulled her away. 

"Go choke on a dick!" Alex added as he ran alongside his girlfriend.

Everyone ended up splitting up to hide from Derrick and his mom. Shuji and Anna ducked behind a neighbor's house, Maya and Sam hid in some bushes, and Alex and Delilah were hiding behind some trees.

"Damn," Alex grinned as they sat down. "That was fun. Your friends seem chill."

"I don't know if that was exactly the definition of 'chill,' but yeah," Delilah laughed. "They are."

"How long do you think we have to wait?" he asked.

"I dunno," she shrugged, leaning over to rest her head on his shoulder. "It's fine. Gives us time to hang out by ourselves."

"Alright," he happily smiled as he reached for her hand. "What do you wanna talk about?"

"What do you think is gonna happen in the future?" Delilah finally asked after pausing for a bit.

Alex shrugged. "I don't know. All I know is that I want to be with you."

"Yeah, I know," she grinned. "I hope we go to the same college after high school."

"Some fancy fashion school in LA or New York," he added. "And after college, we get married."

"And get a nice ass penthouse or mansion together," she laughed. "We can get a cat too."

"Two cats," Alex said. "A boy and a girl. And we name them..."

"Lincoln and Diana," Delilah suggested. "You know, from that one romance novel I told you about?"

"Sounds familiar," he said, furrowing his eyebrows. "Anyways, I'll be there to cook all your meals, since I know you cannot cook at all."

"Excuse you," she snickered. "But you're right. I'll be there to take care of you when you're sick."

"I'll bring you flowers every time I see you," he grinned.

"You're going to run out of money," she laughed.

"I'll have my own flower garden," he protested. "Just for you."

"That's sweet," Delilah smiled, ruffling his hair. "I'm gonna be by your side forever. Like, we'll grow old together and sit in the rocking chairs of our retirement home together."

"And you'll still be as beautiful as ever," Alex softly said. "Even when your hair turns gray, you'll still be the prettiest girl I know."

"Hm," she happily said. "Well, men age worse, honestly. So, I'm not too sure about how handsome you'll be."

"Excuse you," he complained. "I happen to think I'd be a very good looking old man."

"I could see you as one of those guys who walk around with a cane,"  Delilah laughed. "Or those motorized wheelchairs."

"Yeah, yeah," Alex said, rolling his eyes. "Whatever you say. All I know is that I'm never leaving you."

"I know," she smiled. "Trust me, I'm not going anywhere either."

"I know, my love."

sorry this chapter was so short; the episode is mostly Maya and Anna at Derrick's house, so there wasn't much to write about.

either way, I hope you enjoyed it <3
