Delilah's POV
"Technically me and Harry didn't start the food fight but-" I was stopped mid conversation between everyone around the dinner table by my phone ringing. "Excuse me." I spoke before leaving the table and sitting on the bottom step of the stairs.
"What are you doing?" Riley fired down the phone at me before I could even speak.
"Hello to you to." I spoke with sarcasm.
"What are you doing?" He repeated, he sounded annoyed.
"Having dinner, why?" I asked sounding alarmed, his voice seemed unstable, he sounded like he had been drinking. He didn't have a drinking problem, but everyone handles alcohol differently.
"Is he there?" He snarled.
"What?" I said at his stupid question.
"Is he there?!" He practically shouted, pausing in-between each word.
"What are you talking about? Who?" I replied rubbing my forehead.
"Harry." He snarled.
"Um, yeah." I said, didn't he trust me?
"I knew it." He spoke.
"His parents are here too, my parents are their friends." I said defending myself.
"They're not around you all the time though are they?"
"Riley you're just being stupid!" I protested.
"Am I?" I could picture him raising his eyebrows at the phone.
"Yes, yes you are." I said raising my voice.
"Why are you acting like you have something to hide?" He snarled.
"Don't you trust your own girlfriend?!" I practically shouted. "I have to get back to dinner." I spoke calmly before hanging up, before he could even respond. I took a deep breath and plastered a smile on my face before I walked back into the dining room. I just hoped no-one heard any of that.
"Everything alright?" My mum asked whilst I walked back into the room, I knew she could sense there was something wrong.
"Just peachy." I responded not wanting to delve into what just happened. I took my seat back next to Harry where I pushed the remaining food around my plate, it had gone cold anyway.
The parents finally enveloped themselves into a separate conversation in which I wouldn't have to involve myself in.
"You okay?" Harry asked looking concerned.
"Yeah." I sighed.
"Didn't sound like it." He replied.
"What?"
"We all sort of heard." He said scratching the back of his head.
"Oh."
"Are you sure you're okay?"
"I will be." I retorted.
"When?"
"When what?"
"When will you be okay?"
"I don't know." I sighed.
"You deserve better."
"So you keep saying."
"It's true."
"Prince Charming isn't going to appear out of my wardrobe anytime soon, Riley's the only one who seems to appreciate me." I said in intense thought.
