Delilah was still smiling as laid back on her bed and opened the computer. Luke's face   appeared on Skype. "Hey."

 

"Hi."

 

"Heard you went out to Cole's show tonight...."

 

"I did...."

 

"And?"

 

"It was fun. I had a good time."

 

"Did you talk to him?"

 

"Yes."

 

"And?"

 

"Stop, Luke. We are friends. Or getting back to being   friends."

 

"That's a step."

 

"I'm tired so I'm gonna get ready for bed. And by the way...I'm   goin to his parent's anniversary dinner tomorrow night. He asked me to.   Night." She ended the call before he could say another word.

   

She opened up her Instagram account and found the picture he   had Joel take. "Atlanta brought the party! And look who I found.... Good to see   this girl at the show. @delbryan."

 

She liked the picture and fell asleep with a smile on her   face.

   

The next evening Heather came over to help her get ready for   the dinner. "So..."

 

"So?" Delilah eyed her in the mirror.

 

"Are you and Cole...."

 

"No. We are friends. He has a girlfriend."

 

"She's not gonna be there."

 

"I'm not that girl, Heather. As long as she makes him happy   and treats him right." She swallowed back the lump in her throat as she said   the words.

 

"Bull... you know you want him back."

 

"Stop." Delilah finished applying the makeup. "Now how do I   look?"

 

"Like you want Cole to take you home..."

 

"Hush." She tossed a wash rag at her cousin. "Seriously... does   this look ok?" She glanced down at her pink sundress and white sandals. She   had paired a jean jacket over it.

 

"You look beautiful, Lils."


She was nervous as she pulled into the parking lot of the restaurant. Her palms were sweating. She took a deep breath and walked into the private room.
