"Mom, Susannah, i dont know where Jeremiah is" Delilah said looking around once more for him as the waltz was starting
"He'll be here in a minute, im sure" Susannah smiled, "Go, get great"
"Ok" Delilah nodded going over and standing in their spot, Melly and Belly both looked at her worriedly
"Where's Jeremiah?"
" I dont know, but im gonna fucking slap him" Delilah said through a smile
"God, i think im actually gonna throw up" Delilah admitted still not seeing Jeremiah, Melly leaning over and grabbing her hand
"I promise we'll find him, Del, ok?"
"Have you guys seen Jeremiah?" Delila asked turning go Gigi, Marisa and Dara
"i think i saw him go outside" Gigi shrugged
"Where's Jeremiah?" Susannah asked turning to Conrad, "Connie. Connie, have you seen your brother?"
Conrad shook his head, "He was just here a second ago"
Jeremiah sat on a pool chair crying as he stared at his moms phone, he scrolled a little on the email he was reading as he began to cry more
Delilah was nervously playing with her necklace, Jeremiah still hasnt been found and it's starting
She swore everyone was whispering about her and pointing at her
"You know that dream where you're standing in front of the classroom naked and everyone is staring at you? It's no longer my dream, it's my life"
"Hey" Shayla smiled looking at Delilah, "Hi, uh, have you seen Jeremiah?"
"no" Shayla and Steven said at the same time

Conrad looked at Delilah as he could notice her hand shaking and she began to play with her necklace
He stood up and walked over to her, i would never say that Delilah and Conrad never had feelings for one another, she wasnt like Belly
Or was she....?
I cant sit here and lie to you guys, they've kissed before, made out, gave each other hickeys even, but they were just 14 and the next summer they were back to best friends
But deep down Conrad still had butterflies every time he saw her, he still kept the ring she gave him as their "pretend wedding"
Conrad loves his brother, he wouldnt kiss her like he kissed Belly. But if Jeremiah every messed up again, Conrad wouldnt hesitate to push him out of the way and have Delilah for himself
Delilah chewed on her lip as Conrad walked over to her, she smiled staring at him
"I think i remember most of the steps" he whispered grabbing her hand, he walked her over to the line before stepping in his own
The boys did a spin as the music began to play before putting their hands out, Delilah did a spin placing her hand in Conrads
She curtseyed as the two kept eye contact, he spun her into him, one hand on her wait the other holding hers, him spinning the both of them once more
Before one more and letting go, stepping apart before coming back and touching hands, stepping away once more as he spun her around
Touching hands once more before spinning her and then pulling her in, her hand on his shoulder, his on her waist their other hands holding one another's
Before they began the square dance method
Jeremiah walked back into the room to see Delilah and Conrad dancing, he had a slight smile on his face despite just crying
He was glad, if not him, Conrad was doing the waltz. Delilah might of acted like she didnt wanna do this at the first but it was all she talked about for years, and that's why Jeremiah said he would only go with her
Conrad spun her once more, spinning her out and then in, before holding her spinning once more
"Jeremiah, honey, where have you been?" Susannah asked turning to him
"I-i ate something. I think maybe the shrimp was bad" he lied
"Oh, honey, im so sorry. You know, the carter is gonna be hearing from me" Susanah said looking at Laurel
"Ok, Karen" Laurel nodded, Susannah turning back to Jeremiah, "Ill get you some ginger ale"
Conrad spun Delilah out and then in once more, and the out and in once more. He held her hand getting down on one knee as she walked around him
He stood up, pulling her into him and dipping her, everyone clapping as the dance finished
Delilah smiled hugging Conrad, "Thank you for stepping in, i think i was gonna throw up and then have a panic attack"
"I think i messed up some of the steps" he laughed a little, "Me too, dont worry. But you were amazing"
"I'm glad, i didnt wanna ruin this for you. Talk to Jere though, he'll-"
"Hey" Jeremiah spoke up walking over to the two, "Miah, where have you been?"
"Ill explain in a second. Conrad, we need to talk, all right? It's important. It's about mom" Jeremiah said, Belly and Melly walking over to the three
"I found something out" he added
"Um, yeah.. We'l-we'll talk about this later, ok?"
"No, it's important"
"It's okay" Conrad said softly as Jeremiah had a look of realization, "You already know, dont you?" Jeremiah asked, tears pooling in his eyes
"You knew this whole fucking time and didnt tell me?"
"Jere..." Conrad said looking at Belly and Delilah, "Oh, my God!" Delilah gasped as Jeremiah punched Conrad
"Jeremiah!" Belly yelled as he tackled Conrad. The two fell to the floor and began to fight
"Stop it!" Susannah rushed over, Laurel following, "Both of you, stop it" she said as Conrad pushed Jeremiah off of him
"What is going on?"
"Mom.." Jeremiah spoke, his voice breaking
"We know, mom" Conrad added, "We both know"
