NOT EDITED/Luke/
We were all completely silent on the ride back home. I don't think any of us had much to say. I couldent help but keep looking back at Delilah.
She started crying when we were at Ashton's stone. I don't think she realised I saw, but I did.
I never seen her look so vonerable...so fragile.... so broken. She was always the girl who had the biggest smile on her face and she'd always be laughing. That's why I'd admired her so much. I knew she liked Ashton but I couldent help but fall for her in every way possible.
"Are you staying again Luke?" Her quite voice asked.
"If you want me too, of course." She nodded.
"Please do." I secretly loved that she wanted me to be with here, it gave me a sense of use.
"Do you want me to take you home Michael?" He shrugged, looking over at me.
"My parents arnt home and Calum's with his sister so I don't have anywhere to go."
"You could come hang with us for a bit." Delilah offers, as Michael smiles.
"As lovely as that sounds I should probably go home, I'll just call Niall or something." I nod, turning down Michael's street.
"Thank you for coming." Delilah says, as I pull into Michael's driveway.
"Anytime. Bye guys." I send him a small wave, watching him walk inside and close the door.
Delilah quickly slips into the passenger seat, and looks over at me. "What?" I ask, as she shakes her head.
"Thank you."
"For what?"
"For being here. I know I wasn't exactly the nicest when you first hung out with me but I'm glad you stayed." I smile.
"I'll always be here for you Delilah."

When we got back to Delilah's her mother wasn't home. She'd left a small note on the table explaining that she would not be returning for two days, which was really strange but I didn't mind.
"Wanna watch a movie Luke?" Delilah asks, sitting by me on her bed.
"Uh sure. Whatcha got?" She gets up and walks over to her TV, pulling out a small black box.
"At the moment only Mean Girls, Nightmare Before Christmas and Mall Cop work." I laugh.
"Mall Cop?" She nods, holding up the case, "Lets watch that." She quickly pops in the movie and rushed back to her spot beside me.
"This movie is really funny." She whispers, as the opening titles appear on the screen.
I nod. My older brothers used to make me watch with them every night because it's all we had.
"Luke.." She whispered after some time, "Can I ask you something?"
I nod.
"When me and you were in the living room...were you going to kiss me?" I sigh, shutting off the TV and looking her in the eyes.
"Yes I was."
"Why?" I laugh.
"Because I wanted to kiss you Delilah." I lie. I actually wanted to kiss her because I'm practically in love with her.
"Oh." She mumbles, "I wanted to kiss you too if that helps anything."
I look at her surprised. She wanted to kiss...me?!
"Well your moms not home so what's stopping us now?" I mentally facepalm.
smooth Luke...
"I... I don't know." I look at her, and she looks back. I slowly lean in, hoping she would too. I feel her warm breath on my lips as I look up at her. Just as I go to connect our lips her phone rings.
"Sorry." She mumbles grabbing the device off the table side, "Hey Michael...wait what? Michael slow down please... yes... okay...your sure? We'll be right over."
"Everything okay?"
"Michael thinks he saw Ashton."
