Hey there Delilah

Whats it like in new york city?

Saturday October 31st 7pm
"What film should we watch" Harry excitedly threw himself down on his sofa. "Don't mind I plan on spending it getting me and Charlotte ready" Sofia said I sighed and sat down next to Harry "what are you dressing up as?" I asked him and he looked away from Netflix to face me "I'm not really sure " Morgan sat down on Harry's other side "ooh I know" he suggested "go as a rugby player" Harry grinned "perfect" he said. "Morgan what are you going as?" I asked him "police man" he replied grinning. "What no you can't im going as a sexy police woman" Sofia exclaimed "well I ain't got anything else we'll just have to match" Morgan shrugged before turning to Harry to discuss films Sofia huffed and pulled on my arm "Charlotte what colour eyeshadow should I do?" She asked sitting down and putting her large makeup bag down on the table "blue" I suggested and she nodded.

Even as I sat in Harry's living room surrounded by my laughing friends something in the back of my mind was pulling me out of the moment. Of all things to come to mind Delilah Robinson popped up in my head and I found myself wondering what she'd be wearing at this party. I shook my head and I was back to sofias voice and Harry laughing at some bad special effects. this should be perfect I slowly realised. I should be perfectly happy and laughing along with my friends and instead I was drifting back to things and people I shouldn't have cared about what so ever.

"Yes Charlotte let's go!" Sofia happily smiled and jumped up ready to go to the party. I stood sighing and followed my Greek goddess costume looked good I think but I knew whatever I wore Sofia would look better. That thought flew out of my mind as I saw Sofia and Morgan stood beside one another. I laughed out loud and Harry joined in. Sofias costume was a revealing shirt, short skirt and cute hat all arranged strategically with a glinting badge naming her as 'officer sexy' on her chest. Morgan's outfit included trousers, a shirt and a hat all in the same blue colours as sofias and the badge on his chest read the same. "This is the worst" Sofia lightly punched him and he laughed along with us at their predicament.

We all piled into Harry's beaten up red car as he grinned and accelerated suddenly flinging us all forwards and making Sofia shriek. "I'm regretting this already" Morgan said turning to face me. We only made it three quarters of the way to the party before it happened. i think it was me who yelled "stop!" and then Harry was doing an emergency stop and we all saw the scene in front of us.

Delilah Robinson lying on the ground unmoving I fumbled for my seatbelt and ran towards her. "Delilah!" I yelled in her face she blinked slowly and groaned "Charlotte" she said faintly looking at me "yes Delilah it's me come on stay awake for me" I said but she groaned and flopped back closing her eyes but still breathing heavily. Then I heard the yelling of my friends "take me and her to the hospital you can carry on to the party" I said Harry furiously shook his head " I can't leave you with her to go to a stupid party" he said "harry I know how much this party means to you, you go" I say "Sofia" I turn to her "you want to go to this party so there's no point stopping you" I then move to Morgan "and you Morgan you need to look after her make sure she gets home safe" Morgan slowly nods "fine but I don't feel good about this" Harry says getting back into the car "you two carry on its number fourteen" Harry says helping me put Delilah on the back seat where I join her. She groaned and leaned her head onto me "char" she murmured and I looked at her surprised.

"Delilah" I tried in attempt to rouse her but all I got was another groan and a repeat of the name she'd never called me probably because we weren't even friends just rivals and here she was crying my name with her head on my lap. I ran a hand through her hair and encouraged Harry to drive faster ( for once) as she sighed and snuggled her face into my stomach as I turned red and rubbed her scalp with an air of awkwardness to my movements.

When we did get to the hotel Harry acted like a man whose wife was about to give birth "out of my way" he pushed as I followed holding a drowsy Delilah in my arms. When I attempted to pick her up out the backseat I found her light especially for someone four inches taller then me. "We found her in the road we know her from school and we were on our way to a Halloween party" he explains and I remember our costumes. For the first time I look down Delilah's body to see what she's wearing and the angel costume on her limp legs looks so good I begin awkwardly thinking about how bad my costume looks. "We can only allow one person in with her" the woman Harry was speaking to says "I'll go in you go to your party" I say and Harry nods and watches me carry Delilah into a doctors room before leaving.

I lower Delilah carefully onto the bed and rearrange her into a position that looks somewhat comfortable. When I go to let go however she pulls on my hand and whines. She doesn't groan she whines. The sound is unfamiliar and vulnerable and it shocks me into letting her hold my hand with both of hers as I'm asked questions which I can't focus on. The first question I really think about is "what is your relation to miss Robinson?" I think for a second and reply "friends and classmate" I doubt 'rival and head girl' quite does the job.

A/N : hello everyone, new story for you. So far i've written six chapters and I'll be uploading them for you soon.
