{One Week Later}
I woke up feeling energized, and ready for whatever the day had to offer. But I wasn't sure what to spend my energy on. I only worked every other day, and none of the bands even started playing til noon.
Quietly, I went over to peep in Chris's bunk to see if was awake, but sadly he was sleeping. He looked cute though, and I was looking forward to hearing him play again today, his music was just happy. I settled for straightening my hair, and doing my make-up. I didn't want to do too much in the make-up, since I'd be outside most of the day. Then I put on a a plain black crop top, dark shorts, and black boots. I was excited about wearing my crop top for the first time, since I'd gotten my belly button pierced, but haven't shown it yet. I ended up leaving to just walk around. Stacy, a girl I worked with yesterday, stopped me to say 'hi'. Her bleached hair flew around as she ran over to me.
"Hey Delilah!" Stacy greeted cheerfully.
"Hey Stacy, what are you up to?" I asked.
"Nothing, just going over to the Black Veil Bride's bus to see if they wanna get something to eat." She said casually.
"Wow, you're cool with them? I adore them," I gushed slightly.
"Aha, well how about you come with us? I'm sure the guys won't mind." I nodded, and we made our way over to their bus.
Before we entered the bus, I tried calming my nerves so I wouldn't let my inner fan girl get the best of me. When on the bus, all of the guys came gave me a nice greeting. I thought I'd faint when CC hugged me warmly. Ashley tried to grab my waist a couple of times, I noticed his eyes constantly dropping down to my belly piercing. We walked to a McDonald's and ate. I had a good time hanging out with them, the guys are super nice and even invited me to hang out whenever; Ashley invited me to sleep over and winked at me. Stacy was really cool too, she was really into grunge fashion, anybody could easily tell by her outfits. When we walked back, I walked at the end by Andy's side.
"Never gonna change my mind, we can leave it all behind. Nothing's gonna stop us, no not this time. So take your hand in mine, it's ours tonight. This is a rebel love song. Hearts will sacrifice, it's do or die, this is a rebel love song." I sang softly to myself as we walked.
"Wow, you're a pretty damn good singer Delilah!" Andy said. I felt a little embarrassed because I didn't know he'd been listening.
"Oh, thanks," I said shyly.
"Awh, we didn't get to hear!" CC pouted.
"Yeah, why don't you sing something else?" Stacy chimed in. I figure if I sing just a little, they won't pressure me too much, and I do want to get noticed also.There was this Never Shout Never song that had been stuck in my head since yesterday so I decided to sing it.
"Okay," I said taking a deep breath, "...Nothing is real, I know this cause I made a deal with the devil, he told me that I was just wasting my time on the moon. So I flew to the sun, lost track of my soul on the run, suffered from 12 degree burns, I learned that the sun was no fun. So I flew back to Earth, tripped and fell in the glorified dirt. Honestly gravity sees me as a liability...." I finished singing, I could have sang more, but I didn't want to get to carried away. However I did add a little bit of my own style by holding some of the notes longer.
"That was awesome, Delilah!" They all cheered to me.
"You should try to perform while your out here. I mean, since you'll be here the whole time, you should at least try to get up on stage at some point." Jake said encouragingly.
"Yeah! Maybe you can do a song with us, or do something by yourself right before we perform, like an opening act sorta!" Andy suggested. It really wasn't a bad idea, it would possibly give me some exposure, that's what I'm looking for anyways.
"Really? Thanks you guys, you all are the sweetest!" I said, pulling them all into a big hug.
{Chris's POV}
I woke up, went outside for a quick smoke, and then went over the Delilah's bunk; empty. Taylor and Hayden were still asleep. Delilah wasn't on the bus at all, maybe she went walking or something. Shame, I had hopes for taking her for coffee this morning too. I really wanted to spend more time with Delilah, she's incredible. She had a good view on things, I also liked that she didn't even know I'm famous when she first met me, that she just treated me like anyone else. It bothered me when girls tried to use me for my fame, but most of my "fans" had been bashing me since my Bryan Stars interview. But I knew Delilah wouldn't care about shallow stuff like that, she's smarter than that. She had this shy, but very ambitious attitude to her, and I just loved it. I feed off of her positive vibes.
Really, I feel like I love her already. I really want to be with her, but I've only known her for about a week or so, and I don't want to rush things. I have a bad habit of rushing into falling in love, then I get my heart broken. Delilah doesn't seem like she'd break my heart, but I didn't even know that side of her yet. I want to ask her out, but I'm not sure how without seeming like I'm rushing things. I'm afraid I'll scare her off. She makes me nervous and I just want to care for her.
I heard the bus door start to open and I sat up. It was Stacy and Delilah. Stacy has been one of the merch members for a while now, she's also kind of has a thing for me too. I'm not interested in her like that, but I don't want to hurt her feelings, so I'd never stop her when she'd flirt with me. Delilah looked gorgeous, her belly button piercing was showing, and she had a nice,s mooth looking stomach, and her hair looked pretty too. I gave her a warm smile and both of them hugs.
"Well I just wanted to stop by. Later, Chris." Stacy winked to me, as she playfully danced her nails on my shoulder, before she left. I sighed as soon as she left.
"So what'd you do? I was going to ask you if you wanted to get coffee, but you were gone." I said.
"I went to eat with Stacy and the Black Veil Brides dudes. But if you want, we can still get coffee? I'm an addict; I'm always up for coffee." She joked.
"Same, coffee and cigarettes till I die. There's a little place just 2 blocks away." I said. We walked in comfortable silence. Once at the coffee shop, we both got a coffee and sat down.
"Chris, thanks again for helping me out. I know I thank you like every hour but I really am grateful, it's so great of you." She said smiling.
"It's no problem, beautiful." She blushed when I said 'beautiful', but she looked even cuter when she blushed.
"Also, I hope you don't feel like you have to hang around with me, just because I'm not totally fimilar with everyone around here, but I'm making friends, so you won't have to worry about me..." She said.
"No, I like hanging out with you! You're really amazing, I have no problem at all hanging out with you, I prefer it over most people actually." I said smiling
"Really, you mean that?" She smiled.
"Yes. Actually, I was sorta wondering if you'd like to go on a date tonight? Like have dinner..." I said nervously. Usually I have more confidence about these types of things but Delilah made me so anxious.
"Sure, that'll be fun. But can we hang out as friends? I want to take it slow since we just met still." She said. It may not be a date, but I can work with it still. We finished our drinks then walked back to the buses.

A/N: I put "Rebel Love Song" on the side, since that's what Delilah was singing. c:
