In The End

Chapter 20

Delilah's POV

As soon as we got to the house I ran upstairs. Mikey immediately followed me and wrapped me in his arms. I sat there crying hysterically while trying to memorize the feeling of being in his arms since I was sure that he'd leave me after what I'm about to tell him. "Honey, what's wrong?" He asked me gently. That made me cry harder knowing that he is here being caring and loving and is concerned about me when I'm the one who fucked up the best thing that's ever happened to me. "Mikey, please don't hate me for what I'm about to tell you." I cried. "Why would I hate you?" He started to look very nervous and had every right to. "I..." I couldn't finish my sentence. "Baby?" "Mikey, I didn't mean to, we went to get the spiders and stopped at the park and he said he liked me and he kissed me and I kissed him back. I'm so sorry, Mikey, I cheated on you, and I slept with Brian. Don't hurt him either please." I sobbed. I looked and sounded pathetic. He let go of me and began pacing around the room. "Why, Delilah? Do you not love me anymore? What did I do wrong?" He had begun to cry as well. "Does he have something I don't? Do you love him?" "No, Mikey I don't love him. I love you I swear I do. I don't even know why it happened. I love you so much, Mikey. I'm so sorry. Please don't leave. Please don't hate me." I begged him. It was dead silent for a long time except for the sound of our crying. "Delilah, I'm not going to lie to you, I'm pissed and hurt and I feel betrayed and like someone just stuck a knife in my heart and twisted. And as much as I wish I could say fuck this and leave, I can't.  I love you so much, Delilah, please never do this to me again." He said. I nodded so furiously that I thought my head would fall off. He pulled me to him and I held him as tight as I could. I felt like if I didn't he'd disappear. It was silent once more as we sat there holding each other.  He then wiped my tears away, and kissed me so deeply and so passionately that everything else disappeared and that night my one true love, Michael James Way, and I made love.
