When Life was Just a Game (Ben Hardy x oc)

Sixteen

*Delilah's P.O.V.*

The last thing I remember was going to sleep in Ben's dressing room. Waking up confused me. I was in the same clothes as yesterday, but my shoes were off. My headache was also gone. Ben had his arms around me, breathing steadily. It was only nine at night, but I couldn't sleep. I felt like waking him, but that seemed rude. Carefully grabbing my phone I texted Lucy and asked if she was awake. No answer. Ben adjusted himself, removing his arms from around my body. I slid off of the bed and quietly made my way to the door, grabbing the card key and my phone.
I slipped on my shoes, and carefully closed the door behind me. I walked down the hall to Joe's room. I lightly knocked. I waited a few seconds, there was no answer, so I walked back toward the room. Then, I heard the door open. Looking back, I saw Joe standing in the hallway.

"Hi Delilah."

"Hello Joseph!"

"Were you-?"

"Yes I was knocking on your door."

"Are you alright?" He asked

"Are you busy? I'm in the mood to do something." I said

"Says the girl who was sick a few hours ago."

"Just answer the question." I sassed

"No, I'm not busy." He said rubbing his eyes

"Would you like to go shopping?" I asked

"I wouldn't mind that actually. What about Ben?" He asked

"He's sleeping." I said

"Let me get my stuff. You can come in." He said

I walked into his room. It was identical to the one Ben and I shared. I put the card key in the front pocket of Ben's pants that I was still wearing. Joe put on his shoes and grabbed the same things I had with me. We walked out and he locked the door behind us. In the elevator, he pulled out his phone and called the limo driver.

"You called a limo to take us shopping?" I scoffed

"It's our only ride source." He shrugged

We sat down in the lobby to wait for our lift to get here.

"Lila watch this." He said showing me his phone

"Wow. You are truly Disco Deaky." I said

"Too bad you weren't there to see it in person." He said

"Unfortunately." I said

"Our ride is here!" He said

We got into the car.

"So Joe, where are you from?" I asked

"I'm from New York, all the way on the other side of America." He said

"Is it nice there?" I asked

"The part I'm from is, yeah. And I'm guessing you're from Bournemouth?" He said

"You would be correct." I said

"So tell me, what was it like growing up with Ben?" He asked

"Interesting. It dealt with a lot of girls asking to be my friend so they could be around Ben." I said

"That sucks." He said

"It really did, but I never let them be my friends." I said

He laughed.
