~Michaela's POV~
While Toby and Delanie were practically hug making out, I thought about me and Jack's conversation earlier. Of course Delanie knew about my problem. She was the one to find me right in the middle of it. Delanie.. The Drunken Saint. That's what we all called her anyway.
Jack was smiling proudly at Toby and Delanie.
"What are you so smug about? It was my idea." I commented to him. Jack's green blue eyes met with my brown ones. I knew he wanted to say something, but he didn't. Jack knew not too. I looked back at Toby and Delanie. Delanie's eyes were full of love and longing. Toby's eyes were full of the same thing, but there was something else, some other emotion that didn't look too keen on having Delanie here. I didn't like that look, I've seen it before.
Right before Delanie's heart was broken.
"Hey guys!" Toby and Delanie came up, his arm around her waist. I glared at the arm.
"Hey! Well I'm glad to see you two back together as friends!" Jack emphazised the 'friend' word too harshly. I glared at him from the side. He obviously knew something I didn't. I just smiled though, being happy for Delanie. Hopefully her drunken stupidity will go away for good now. It's not like she was addicted to the alcohol, just the effects itself.
"Michaela.. Can I talk to you?" Delanie was looking at me. Strange. Her eyes read off with so much emotion, but her face was set at 'angry, period enraged, female.' I grabbed her hand and wandered into a random dressing room.
"Dude.. Is Toby hiding something?" Delanie's blue-gray eyes were darkening. Never, EVER, a good sign with Delanie.
"I don't know. I thought he'd be happier to see you."
"Does he have a girlfriend?" Delanie's eyes changed to her mother's color, Emerald green. Shit. Gotta calm her down.
"I don't know. I don't think he does. He's being too clingy if he does have one."
Her eyes lightened to her Sapphire blue, then the gray slowly transitioned in. It was strange watching her eyes change color. It was like a winter storm.
~Toby's POV~'
I could hear the girls yelling in my dressing room. Pretty funny that they went to mine.
"Toby, how is this going to work out? You're with Olga now! Delanie just can't step in and.. And.."
"Jack.. I'll take care of it."
"You still love Delanie don't you."
I just looked into his eyes. Staring into that whirpool of color.
"I thought you figured that out."
"Then why are YOU with OLGA?" Jack's jaw was set, his fists clenched. He has a protective streak for Delanie. Like an older brother.
"Because.. Because." I had no reason to be with Olga. I have feelings for her but.. Not like Delanie. My heart doesn't thump louder and harder everythime I see her, think of her. Delanie Olivia Cooper.. DOC. That's my nickname for her. Doc. My dressing room door slammed open with a rush of cold air. Delanie and Michaela came out, looking winded and pissed off.
"Because?"
"I don't know."
"Then deal with it! Delanie won't be with you until Olga's gone. It's fair for Delanie to know!" Jack went up to his sister and pushed her down the hall of the set. Delanie rushed up to me, her hair flying. I had to tell her.. But I didn't want to break her heart.
"Toby!" She rushed into me, her head softly hitting my chest. Her arms wrapped around my waist. Mine wrapped around hers.
"Delanie." We sat there for the longest time until Dane came up behind us.
"Who's this pretty pretty lady?" He wiggled his eyebrows at her and his eyes grazed her body. Jealously raged within me.
"I'm Toby's childhood friend, Delanie Cooper."
"Well nice to meet you Doc."
"What? How do you.."
"I told him the old nickname." I interrupted, looking into Dane's eyes. My eyes flashed and I knew he got the signal. He left.
"You remembered Doc?"
"I remember everything."
"What?"
"It's nothing. Let's leave. Go to my place. You can move your stuff in."
"Really?!" Her eyes filled with hope, desire. I knew it was wrong to lead her on like this, but I couldn't tell her. Not yet.
"Yeah. I have a spare bedroom." We left the studio and got into my car. It looked natural for her to be there, unlike Olga. I'm going to break up with Olga. Tonight. Maybe tomorrow.
~Michaela's POV~
Jack and I finished our little chat when we went back out. Delanie and Toby were gone. God Damnit! Dane was standing there though, flicking through a script.
"Where'd they go?!"
"Who?" Dane asked, his eyes checking me out.
"Toby and Delanie!"
"Oh! Delanie's moving in with him tonight I guess."
"We'll go over tonight okay? Come on." Jack urged me outside.
Sometimes Delanie really pisses me off.
