endearment (Jesse Lingard & Marcus Rashford)

The sequel | part 9

Jesse pov
We get a few more drinks from the hotel bar and make our way upstairs. No one has come back from the wedding yet.
Once we reach our doors I stand in front of mine and she stands in front of hers.
Both just staring at each other letting our eyes do the talking.
still no words exchanged.
She downs the remainder of her drink still not taking her eyes off me.
She places the empty glass on the floor and she moves closer to me.
Her gorgeous blue eyes glaring up at me.
She looks at my eyes then down to my lips.
She pushes her lips against mine and I don't reject, I start kissing back.
Her hands rest on the back of my neck, my hands rest on her lower back.
We continue to kiss passionately.
I open my door and we make our way in making sure not to break up our kiss.
I stop kissing her and whisper
"Thought I caused you more problems than anything?"
"I couldn't give a fuck" she whispers back and we continue to kiss passionately.
Things are getting heated.
She begins to unbutton my shirt.
Her hands then move to undo my belt.
All of this still whilst kissing.
I pause the kiss and move to her ear.
"You sure?" I whisper
She nods and connects our lips once again.
She removes her top and my hands reach for her bra clasp.
And...

Next morning
Delilah pov
I open my eyes to be presented with a banging headache. Great! Hangovers are always fun.
Once my eyes open properly I stare up at the ceiling.
This isn't my room.
I panic and sit up and look around.
This is not my room! oh god what did I do last night? I don't remember anything.
Last thing I remember was talking to Adam.
And I don't think that chat would've ended like this!
I look at the bed and see someone next to me.
I lean over and to my amazement I see Jesse sound asleep.
No no no no no no.
"Oh fuck. Oh no" I whisper
"Shit" I whisper getting out of the bed quickly.
oh fuck. I look down to discover I'm naked
I scurry around to find my clothes and I quickly get changed.
Jesse still sound asleep.
What did I do?
I didn't want to end up like this. A slut.
I must've got hella drunk last night
"Where you going?" Jesse asks in his husky morning voice stretching
"Jesse I have to go" I say grabbing the remainder of my clothes, like my boots and jacket.
"What? Why" he asks sitting up in the bed
"Because Jesse we were drunk and weren't thinking straight. I'm sorry but this" i say pointing to the both of us
"This should've never happened" I say and make my way out of his room.
I rush into my room and I feel like such a bad person.
Adam really was right! I am a player.
I just slept with my ex on the same night I broke up with my boyfriend. How heartless am I?
I collapse onto my bed thinking of the person I've become.

Few hours later
Jesse pov
I'm stood in the lobby saying goodbye to Marcus and Lucia as they're off on their honeymoon.
I hug Lucia when suddenly Delilah appears out of nowhere.
She looks at me awkwardly then hugs both Marcus and Lucia.
It's so awkward. You can literally feel the awkwardness in the air.
"Here you go" Lucia says handing Lils some keys.
"That's for the back door, that's the front-" Lucia says pointing to all the different keys before Lils interrupts her.
"I know. You two get going or you'll miss your flight!" She says ushering them out
"Okay okay" Marcus and Lucia both say as Lils pushes them outside.
Lils laughs as they walk over to the taxi.
We wave them goodbye.
Lils turns around and gives me a small smile before quickly walking away back inside.
I walk in trying to catch up to her pace.
She goes up to her room and shuts the door behind her.
I gently knock on her door.
"Lils?" I say gently
"Are you okay? You're acting strange" I add
No reply.
The door slowly opens and she appears behind it.
She just stares at me.
I stare at her and tilt my head.
"do you remember anything about last night?" She asks quietly. Whilst leaning against the door.
"What part?" I ask innocently
"The part where we woke up together" she rolls her eyes
"Oh yeah I do remember that" I say casually
"I only remember waking up, did we-umm" she says awkwardly
"Yeah..." I say trailing off
"Oh my god" she says placing her hand on her forehead.
I don't really know what to say.
"I'm sorry" she says trying to close my door
I shove my foot in the door so she can't close it
"Lils why are you so difficult?" I ask as she's looking down at my foot restricting the door
"Excuse me?" She asks looking up to me
"One minute we are fine then the next we're not and then we are and then we're not. It's like you don't know what the bloody hell you want" I blurt out
She looks at me with an unreadable face
"two weeks after seeing each other for the first time in a year we frickin sleep together Jesse!" She exclaims
"I can see how it's weird but it didn't feel wrong did it?" I ask leaning into the door more
"I'm sorry if you don't mind I have to get packing" she says shaking her head
"You're going back to Paris?" I ask shocked
"No, Lucia gave me those house keys remember? I'm minding their house whilst they're gone" she says
"Then What?" I ask tilting my head
"I go back home... to Paris" she says awkwardly
"Paris isn't your home" I say
"Considering that's where my house and all my belongings are and my job I think it is Jesse" she sarcastically laughs
"Home doesn't necessarily mean your house Lils" I say shoving my hands in my pockets
She awkwardly looks to the floor
"I'd appreciate if you would remove your foot from the door now" she says awkwardly
I remove my foot and she closes the door.
As the door shut I took a deep breath and walked into my room.
I decide to pack my things also.

I've packed my car with all my belongings.
I'm about to step inside my car when I hear a suitcase rolling out of the hotel.
I look up to see Delilah.
I lean on my car's roof and shout over to her
"Need a ride?" I ask smirking
She smiles and walks over

The car ride is silent.
I can't work out if is an awkward silence or not.
It's a weird silence.
"Look I'm sorry Jesse" she says breaking the silence
"What for?" I ask confused.
I turn on my indicator to go right.
"for being a dick. If you feel like I'm stringing you along or something" she says quietly
all I can do is nod, I don't have any words
"I just feel like what Adam said is right. I mean Jesse I slept with you the night I split up with my boyfriend, how fucking bitchy is that?" She laughs at the last part
I smile
"Forget about Adam, what he said was bang out of order and he didn't deserve you anyway. Who cares what you do? It's your life." I say keeping my eyes on the road
There's a short silence.
"I've missed this" she says smiling back in her chair
"What?" I ask confused
"us! The past year you don't even understand how many times I wanted you for advice or just us watching Netflix how we used to and the little things like right now, a conversation in a car" she admits looking at me
"Even though I did want to kill you" she laughs
I laugh shaking my head
"That's besides the point. Now I know what actually happened so I don't want you dead anymore" she smiles
"I'm supposed to be grateful?" I laugh jokingly
"Yes, very grateful" she laughs
There's a short silence again
"So where do we go from here?" I mumble
"Huh?" She asks obviously not being able to hear me
"Where do we go from here?" I ask her as we pull up outside Marcus and Lucia's house.
"Wherever we want to Jesse" she says smiling stepping out of the car
I get out and help her with her suitcase and help her inside.
She thanks me before I leave
"Text me if you need anything!" I shout walking out the front door.
