Previously: "I'm just gonna see other people too, somebody's gotta get my mind off Delilah" I told him.

"Yeah you could just do that too" he says getting up as well.

And I think I know exactly who I should call..

(Now, let's get into this chapter!)

__-----------------------___

Aurora's POV

"Hey" I say looking at my ex.. the girl that I once loved with all my heart, but she was the one to break it.

Lacy.

"To what do I owe the pleasure?" She asked as I stepped inside.

"You said that you wanted me back, right" I ask blatantly, deciding to just get straight to it rather than beating around the bush.

"Well.. yeah.." she started but I didn't let her finish.

"Good. Prove it to me" I tell her as I cup her face and smashed my lips against hers.

"Okay​, despite the fact that I kinda love this, what is all this about?" she asked pulling away making me roll my eyes.

"Nothing, why the hell do you even care?" I asked, only I wasn't really asking.

"Still feisty I see" she said laughing to herself. "Look Rory.." I cut her off before she could continue.

"Don't call me that" I snapped.

"You know that I'm still really into you, despite everything that happened" she continued ignoring what I said. "But a couple days ago you were acting like I was gum scraped off your shoe..." she paused before continuing. "Not to mention.. from what I saw last week, apparently you've already found someone new, so why are you here?" She asked.

"Because I can be. Because I want to be" I say looking right into her eyes.

"I don't believe you" she tells me making me slightly raise my eyebrow.

"No?" I asked coming closer to her and putting my arms around her neck. "What about now?" I asked seductively as I wrapped my legs around her waist and running a finger through her hair.

"No" she said in a whisper.

"I want you back too.." I trailed bringing my face closer to hers until I pressed my lips against hers. She didn't kiss me back at first probably fighting the urge to, but she eventually gave in.

I licked her lips but she just pushed me away.

"You're a really bad liar" she said looking right at me, she sounded like she was kind of upset..

"Yeah well.." I said getting off of her. "It takes one to know one" I told her and with that I left.

As soon as I got home, I plopped myself on my bed, thinking that I would just go to sleep considering it was pretty late at night, due to me stopped at McDonald's and then Starbucks. But Anyways, I heard my phone ringing making me groan. Who the fuck is calling me at 11 pm?

I picked up my phone to see that it was Delilah..

Why would she be calling me?

"Hello" I answer.

"A.. Aurorora... I'm sorry to bother you, I just.. can I come over, I really don't want to be at home right now" she says sounding like she either was crying or just stopped crying.

"Oh.. yeah of course, definitely" I tell her.

Damn it, so much for getting my mind off Delilah..

But what was I supposed to say? 'oh no Delilah, you can't come over, because I don't that you're obviously hurting for some unknown reason right now, I'm trying to stop caring about you, so just stop.. doing whatever it is you do that's driving me crazy'...

Yeah I suppose that wouldn't have worked.

Delilah showed up a little while later with teary eyes.

"Delilah, what happened?" I asked pulling her into a hug as she cried on my shoulder.

"My parents happened" she sobbed and wrapped her arms around my neck as I rubbed her back.

"What did they do?" I asked her.

"Well.. it's nothing, it's stupid" she says.

"Delilah..." I trail off.

"Well, we were at this restaurant and this guy who's like 30 was trying to flirt with me, he was our waiter and apparently I made a scene but he was groping me. But did they care about that? No! Apparently all I do is just screw up our family name. And then they also found out about me getting an F on some stupid project that apparently was like major or whatever, so they told that I was just a screw up and they wished that I was never born and they just kept yelling at me and when they stopped yelling at me, they were just arguing with each other, and I just don't want to be there" she tells me through sobs.

Before I could open my mouth to say something, she cut me off.

"And also... Before all of that happened.. I.. I tried coming out to them.." she said nervously.

"Oh..." I trailed off. "What.. did they say?" I asked.

"That I was delusional and that I didn't know what I was talking about, and that I can never be gay.. and my mom, she slapped me"she tells me crying on my shoulder and honestly that made my blood boil like never before, how could anyone hurt someone as precious as Delilah.

"Well you don't need them" I told her.

"Yes I do!" She cried.

"No you don't, they're fucking idiots if they think that they can treat you like that. They don't deserve you" I tell her.. And neither do I....

"I... Thanks, for everything" she tells me hugging tighter.

"You don't have to thank me for anything.." I trailed off as pulled away took look into those beautiful green eyes that I love so much. But instead of being bright like they usually are, they're teary and o can see the hurt in her eyes.

"You always know the right thing to say and you're always there for me, how do you do that?" She asked.

"I.. I don't know, but I'm really not that great" I tell her.

"Neither am I" she says and I just wonder how someone so perfect, can't even see it.

I'm really falling in love with her.. how did it even get this far.. what the hell did she do that made me think about her all the fucking time...

"You are great, you're amazing Delilah and anyone who doesn't realize that, isn't worth your time" I tell her as I wiped away her tears.

"Thanks Aurora" she says
