I'm lying on something hard when I open my eyes. It’s nice and warm and my mind begins to fight with its self as I try and figure out whether I could be bothered to sit up or not, let’s just say I knew I had to but when I sat up my eyes came in to contact with Xander and he was smirking at me.
‘Sleep Well?’ I glare at him unsure what to say, my eyes flicker to Selena and she clearly can’t hear what we are saying as her eyes are still on the television. I try and pretend that I know that if we were alone Xander would be making some stupid comments. So I look around the dark room before asking.
‘Um what time is it?’ there’s a pause while Xander attempts to read his watch in the dark air after what seems like a lifetime he looks back at me still wearing a smirk and he says.
‘About half eleven we watched another movie. You didn’t last long.’ I roll my eyes and look back and him to notice his eyes flickering down and I see that I am pretty much sitting on his lap and therefore push myself up and stand up to say.
‘I’m going to bed.’
‘Same, Alex make sure you turn the lights off when you go to bed.’ Selena says, finally registering that I was now awake she sends me a fait smile and I look back and Xander to see him nod before Selena and I walk out of the room. Once we were in the hall Selena shuts the door and pulls me back, preventing me from walking up the stairs.
‘Okay so you feel asleep on my brother. You muttered that Jesse is a distraction and you don’t love him. You can dump him now.’ I rub my eyes still not really awake and stand there trying to process what Selena had just said. Well Jesse is a distraction whatever I say, because boys always are. I am in school and therefore all my attention to be on studding but I still feel the need to have a boyfriend because it’s nice to have someone there telling you that they care. I am still confused by Selena’s comment, I know she is trying to get me to break up with Jesse and so all I say is.
‘Sorry I’m a little tired.’ I said again rubbing my eyes, wincing at the bring light which is blinding my version slightly.
‘Look Delilah I mean you talk in your sleep when you're worried about something and you didn’t seem to mind being snuggled up to my brother. You're not secretly dating him are you?’ I let out a laugh and shook my head. I turn only to run the stairs and in to my room at this house. I strip off my clothes and put on a pair of shorts and tank top. I slid under the cover and pull them over my head before drifting off to sleep.
My alarm woke me up the next day and I wander down to the kitchen to find Xander, shirtless. I sat down trying not to let my eyes linger on him. I am a teenager girl with raging hormones and it’s a little hard not to let my eyes wonder over him. He had his back to me so I could just look at him which I sat her and could feel my heart getting a little faster and I could almost feel my cheeks getting redder by the second. Even without being able to see what was on the cooker, I could smell bacon which in all honestly could solve anything. At that moment I let my eyes rest on the counter so that I didn’t catch Xander’s eye once he turns around.
‘You know if you want me you can just tell.’ I feel his breath against my neck and I look up at him. Our eyes lock and I felt my heart beat get faster as I look into his piercing green eyes and know that I am just seconds away from spilling out everything that I feel and have thought about him over the past year.
‘Um you’re standing a little bit close. So you did you make me any breakfast?’ He smiles and places a plate in front of me. I raise my eyebrows and say my thanks. He slides into the seat next to me. I feel my eyes pause on his bare chest. He smirks by this reaction and he leans into say.
‘Just one word.’ I shook my head and he came closer. I feel his touch near me as he whispers into my ear. ‘Dy, why do you look smoking dressed like that? Are you sure you don’t want a taste of me?. A kiss to Xander is nothing he goes through kiss after kiss but to me I just don’t want to kiss him because it has to mean something, there is also the fact that Jesse is my boyfriend and I have to keep repeating his name in my head so that I don’t forget him.
My throats become ever so dry. A smile plays across his face and he turns my face to face him and his eyes went over my lips and he says ‘you know all I want you to say is you want me. You never gave me a chance to explain.’ He murmurs and I sat there in shock as Xander lips were near mine and I could feel his breath against my skin. ‘Just say stop if you don't want me.’ He says. I open my mouth to respond, but no words came out and Xander presses his lips to mine. It was like my heart had become whole again. Although in my head I'm telling myself to pull away, my heart was the one in which led was the one reason to why I kiss him back. When I felt the rush of lust and passion run through my body I pull away and ran from the room to my room. I lock the door and fell down the door pulling my legs close to my body. Tears start falling down my face and I lay on the floor.
There’s a knock on the door which brought me back to reality and I stand up and walk into the bathroom and turn the shower on before striping off my clothes and stepping into the shower. After the shower I walk to my wardrobe and pull out a white dress, there was a knock on the door.
‘Babe it’s me are you ready.’ I hear Jesse say. A smile came to my face as I open the door. Jesse pulls me into a hug and presses his lips to mine. They're warm but I still want to cry and maybe I have been lying to myself all these months because now I don’t feel anything with his kiss. ‘So don’t you look perfect today.’
‘My hair.’
‘Just put it up’ I pout and he smiles crashing his lips on to mine as he pulls me closer and says. ‘Hurry up’ I smile and grab a hair-band putting my hair up in a ponytail. Jesse pulls me close to him and he kisses me on the cheek. We walk down the stairs and we manage to get out the house without running into Xander and I was forever grateful.
I couldn’t get what happened out my head, and what Bella had said yesterday. I slid into the passage seat and turn on the radio. I smile at Jesse and he starts to drive. We were at school in ten and Jesse opens the car door for me. His hand slid into mine and he pulls him close to his body. His lips press to mine and I kiss him back. ‘So I’ll see my girl at lunch.’ I nod as his lips went to mine once more. I heard the bell go and I wander off to homeroom.
The day went by slowly and I tried to not let my mind wander to Xander, unfortunately it did and I must have spent the whole day thinking about him. I dread lunch as I expect to see him, but he wasn’t there. It turns out he skip today and hadn’t been in school the whole day. The guys talk to Selena asking about the back to school bash, but she said Xander was in charge.
Jesse knew there's something wrong with me, but I was thankful he didn’t ask. He knows that I will tell him when I want to, unfortunately if I did tell him it be the end of us. Xander had gotten under my skin again and I couldn't tell Jesse that he kissed me and I had kissed him back. That kiss had felt wonderful and I hadn’t received a kiss like that from Jesse in a while. I'm scared that I'm falling out of love with Jesse. I'm scared that I'm falling in love with Xander, again and this time I wasn’t going to give in to him. My heart can’t break again because as far as I'm concerned there will never be anything between me and Xander ever again.

(a/n) having a 90's song which i kind of miss because i was only in it for five years and don't really remember much about it shame because it had some great music.
I love this song notice the word song, i don't like the original and i don't like the glee version much, there only one version i do like and it's one my friends playing it, but he refuses to put it up on YouTube so i'm using the Glee Version.
I think that this speaks for Xander i'm not doing anyone else point of view other thn delilah, but he trying to make jesse's girl his and i thought this song fits perfect.
