Delilah's POV

As the movie ends, we're sobbing so hard. Too bad we had no tissues. Lacey closes her laptop as she wipes away her tears. I gather all the garbage we left and throw it out. "Well, that was great" she says. I laugh and we just stay there laying down. "I saw a cute guy at a deli" I tell her. "ooh this got interesting" she says as she stands up. "I've never seen him around though" I say. "Really?" she asks just as surprised as I am. I nod. "Did you talk to him?" I shake my head. "Next time you see him, get to know him." She's right. I could go for someone new in my life.

I fiddle around with my fingers as we're thinking of what to do now. "Girl, you need to do those nails" Lacey tells me. "I know, I've been busy" I lie. "Yeah okay" she doesn't believe me. "Let me grab some nail polish and we'll turn up with music" she says as she dances and laughs. I grab my phone and put it on shuffle. Lacey comes back with a...shoe box? "What's that for?" She cocks her head, slightly confused. "Hm? Oh! I keep my nail polish in here" she says. "cheap." She slaps me in the arm and sits down on her bed. I pick one color and she picks another.

After 20 minutes or so of moving one another, we finally got it nicely done. "We should go to the park" she says. "Sure, why not?"

We wait for a couple minutes to dry and we grab our stuff and head out. The nearest park is only 2 blocks away and don't get me wrong, it's pretty big. 3 whole blocks. 1 block with a playground, another with a basketball court yard with a running track around it and the other with a pool and a handball court. It's pretty cool if you ask me.

"Let's climb up the fence" I say as I grab it and start climbing up. "If I break a nail, I'm gonna kill you." I laugh and continue climbing. As I reach the top, Lacey is still struggling trying to get on top. I hold out my hand for her and she grabs it while I pull her.

We both sit above so high. I love it. It's like I'm on top of the world. It's like nothing even matters. It's like blank space above me. I always come up here just to think about stuff. I bring Lacey here a couple times.

After awhile Lacey starts looking for cute guys. Typical. "That blonde one wearing a red beanie is kinda hot" she says pointing at him. I shrug my shoulders, "I don't see why he's wearing a beanie, it's like 200 degrees out here." We scan around more. I point at one, "that guy with a ton of tattoos looks so hot from behind." He turns around, "never mind." We find a couple. "Time to approach the hotties" Lacey says as she climbs down.

As we climb down about to do the stupidest things ever, she trips. She bumps into someone in front of her. "Hey watch i-" he sounded mad but stopped right after he saw Lacey. It was a tall blonde boy with shaggy hair who looked slightly older. "I-I'm so sorry" Lacey says as she steps back a bit. I go down and stand next to her. "No, it's my fault, I didn't see you there, are you okay?" Well this got weird. "Yea I'm fine." she says. I go over to the tree near me and plop down and went on my phone.

5 minutes later, Lacey comes back with a huge grin on her face. "I'm guessing we should ditch the cute guys?" She laughs and nods. "So what happened?" I scooch over for her to sit next to me. she sat down as she said "his name is Chris and we have each other's number basically" she shows me her phone to his name under "CHRIS IS HOT" which he typed in. "He's not wrong" I say, "but lame."

We stand up and decide to walk around the track.

Lacey's POV

Chris was really sweet. He was a little scary at first but it was hot. I'll text him later. "Hey Delilah, you wanna go home now?" She eyes me. "You just want to text Chris, don't you?" I roll my eyes. "Fine, let's go" she says. We turn around and Delilah tenses up. Maybe she got the chills...She is looking at someone. "Are you okay?" I ask her. "Yeah, I'm fine" she says. Then she trips into a trash can and falls. I help her up and look wt her confused hoping for an answer. "That's the boy from earlier" she says pointing at him. I look over and find a guy with brown messy hair. Time to embarrass her.

"HEY KID, THIS GIRL" I point at Delilah "SAYS YOU'RE CUTE." He laughs and walks over.
