CAPPIN' (book 2)

Chapter 2: I Can't Face Him

Delilah POV
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I arose from my deep sleep, slowly smacking my lips from the dry and bitter taste in my mouth. I wiped the corner of my mouth from its dried saliva and I sluggishly got out of my bed. I raised my arms high up in the air while my body lifted on the tip of my toes, stretching, letting the almost overwhelming feeling release a loud yawn/groan from my lips. Slightly staggering my way to the cream, almost yellow painted door that lead to my bathroom, and saw that it was slightly cracked. Slowly I peeped inside, only to jerk backwards in fright and surprise, causing me to fall onto my bottom. I groaned once again, but this time in pain, and I struggled a little while getting up. I heard the person in my bathroom squeal, and I heard the voice of my mother soon bombard my ears with her overly deep pitched voice, which contrasted the high squeal. I almost laughed when I heard it because her voice only gets deep when she's mad, you gotta love Roman.
" Delilah what is wrong with you! Don't you know how to knock?" She belted out. I nervously got up and rubbed my butt.
"I'm sorry mom I literally just woke up," I said making sure to not even look at the bathroom door, "why are you in my room?" I nervously asked already making my way back to the bed to Lie down.
"I had to poop and you know good and well that I am not gonna poop in the same room with August. That is nasty!" Exclaimed this overly dramatic woman.
All I could do is roll my eyes. Why can she not poop in her bathroom because of my dad? I don't know. I just let her be until she was done. Of course I wasn't in any hurry to go in there until the stank aired out. Yes, I said "stank", because that smell don't make no sense. I let open the windows so it wouldn't stink up my room. Why couldn't she just go in the guest bathroom?

It's Thursday evening, 9:35 pm to be exact, and my mom is making me go to the grocery store. First of all I already had on my pajamas so that I could wake up bright and early tomorrow for the concert but nooo, I have to get out of my comfortable bed so that I can get some milk and cheese. I know what you're thinking. Delilah, aren't your parents rich and famous? Well yeah, that's true, but they decided to downgrade to a smaller, but still big house and get rid of all of the maids and house staff. They said it was for a more natural experience, and my dad, August, couldn't stand, nor trust all of those people in the house. I'm only here for summer break and maybe a little in September because I want to switch colleges so that I can be closer to my parents. Anyway, I slipped on some flip flops and a grey hoodie, still wearing my pajama pants, I grabbed my keys and my phone and headed out of the door. Whenever I go out for things like this I just drive my dark blue FORD truck to avoid getting my good cars stolen. I also drive this around campus so that I can seem ordinary. I drove to the grocery store and when I got out of the car, I spotted a familiar person with a curly Afro walking into the entrance.

Of course of all of the times to look like a bum, it had to be now. I almost turned on my heels and got right back in my truck, but I decided against it. It probably isn't even him anyway.
I locked my car, but of course I accidentally hit it too many times and it beeped loudly. The curly Afro seemed to stop in its tracks but before the face was revealed I turned around to appear as though I was just a random person. Once I felt as though the coast was clear I turned around. Luckily he had already gotten through the entrance of the grocery store.

I haven't seen the Afro since the little incident outside of the grocery store but I'm still paranoid. At the moment, I'm just walking through random isles trying to find some good chocolate, or maybe even some gummy bears, but I can't find them anywhere. I look up and down different isles until I came across one of the most beautiful sights I have ever laid my eyes upon. Evil twins gummy candy. Doesn't sound too pretty but trust me, if you ever get a chance to taste these, your taste buds will go on a journey. I reach for them but I am unable to grasp them. Unfortunately it isn't within my reach so I start to get frustrated. I finally give up after five minutes of many failed attempts, and I hung my head with a loud humph. A deep chuckle intruded my eardrums, and I almost jumped out of my skin. I squeezed my eyes shut, hoping and praying I don't see that curly mane when I turn around. I slowly rotated and allowed one eye to open. Standing before me left me terrified but also relieved. It definitely wasn't Jacob but it was one of his band mates. I'm pretty sure this one was called Mike. He grabbed the candy and handed it to me, getting himself a bag in the process.

'I love evil twins. They are hard to find, but once you get your hands on some, it's definitely worth the search." He said, staring at the bag of candy in his hand. He was quite handsome, I can't even lie. His eyes caught mine and I blushed, looking away. He chuckled once again, saying, "You have pretty eyes." I swear when he said that I almost melted.

"Thank you." I said, with a big toothy grin on my face. He nodded, and was about to say something, but a voice called him. He smiled then waved goodbye.

"Wow Mike, do you have to flirt with every girl you see? I thought I told you to get some hot cheetos." The friend said, as they walked away.

"Sorry Prince, but come on, shorty was too fine." Mike said. I heard nothing else after that. My body went into shock. Prince? As in Princeton? Was that really Jacob?
