Summer to Remember

Chapter Thirty Five

Quickly making my way down the stairs, I noticed that everybody was gathered around the front door. "Something wrong?" I asked with a puzzled look on my face.

"Not at all, this is just our new hang out area" Niall teased and I couldn't help but chuckle along with Rebecca. 

"Ready to go babe?" Harry asked, I noticed that he had worn the same beanie again, gosh he looked attractive with it. 

"You bet!" I said as I interlocked my fingers with his. 

"Drive carefully" Liam warned us.

"Don't go too fast" Louis added.

"Don't forget to bring Delilah home" Zayn teased and I let out a laugh. 

"Bye guys!" I said waving goodbye before walking out the door and onto the driveway. Harry opened my door for me before running off to his side of the car, what a gentlemen he was. The ride to the airport was quite entertaining, it took approximately an hour but I didn't mind looking at the beautiful view of London on the way there. As Harry parked his car in the airport parking lot, my heart started to beat faster because I was excited to see Delilah. She was my everything, literally, she was like a sister and a best friend all in one.

I couldn't contain my excitement as we walked to the international arrivals, I think Harry noticed because he said "Ouch!". 

"What happened hun?" I questioned. 

"You're squeezing my hand..." he said giving me a gorgeous smile that revealed his beautiful dimples.

"Oh my gosh, I'm sorry! I'm just so excited!" I squealed. All I received as a reply was his laughter, I guess he found my excitement quite entertaining. We were waiting for the doors open and just as they slid open I tried peeking through the crowd to see Delilah's familiar curly hair. She was nowhere in sight. The crowd slowly vanished and Harry and I were the only ones left. 

"Harry... where is she?" I asked horrified.

"I've got no clue babe" he replied with a puzzled look on his face.

Just when I thought the doors were going to close, I saw Delilah running out with her luggages in hand. She looked great even after that long flight, I forgot to mention she had curly hair just like Harry, it was absolutely stunning. 

"DELILAH!" I screamed as I let go of Harry's hand and ran up to her squeezing her in a tight hug.

"ELS! I MISSED YOU SO MUCH!" she squealed as she rocked me back and forth in a tight hug. We finally let go and just made inhuman noises because we were so excited to see each other.

Finally after calming down, I turned around to find Harry walking over to us, "Delilah, this is Harry" I said making sure she wouldn't faint. "And Harry, this is Delilah" I said looking over to see how he was handling it.

"Hey Delilah, nice to meet you" Harry said as he put his arms around her and gave her a quick hug. I didn't know if she was alive, she was just staring at him and I could see her hands slightly shaking. 

"I can't believe it..." Delilah said blinking numerous times. Just at that moment a couple teenage girls walked up to us and started screaming noticing that Harry was with us, honestly I don't know he handles it so well but he acted calm and gave them his autograph. 

"We should go before fans start surrounding us" I said and Harry quickly agreed as he took Delilah's luggage and gestured us to walk beside him. 

"Els! You guys are going out right?" Delilah whispered into my ear excitedly.

"Yup!" I replied smiling happily. Delilah took it all very well, I thought she'd start fangirling/faint or something but she looked really calm on the outside even if she wasn't on the inside. We quickly walked to the parking lot and Delilah insisted that I still sit in the passenger seat beside Harry, gosh how I missed her. The whole ride back to the beach house, I was turned around as I talked to her. Harry was being so friendly and I honestly admired him for it, he joined in on our conversations and I could already tell they were going to be great friends!

"We're here girls" Harry said as he drove onto the driveway of the house. 

"This place is like paradise" Delilah said as her jaw dropped.

"You're going to love it here!" I smiled excitedly before hopping out of the car. 

Harry was already making his way inside the house with her luggages, we followed behind him. "Be calm while meeting the rest of the boys, ok?" I said giggling.

"I'll try..." she mumbled before we entered the house. To my surprise everyone was gathered around the door and greeted us warmly once we arrived. 

"Guys, this is Delilah" I said grinning.

"Hey Delilah! We've been expecting you!" Louis said as he hugged her.

"Nice to meet you Delilah" Liam said before giving her a quick hug.

"Delilah! Now that you're here, Ella can be peaceful!" Niall joked as he put his arms around Rebecca's waist.

"Hi Delilah, I'm Rebecca! It's nice to finally be able to meet you!" she said as she gave her a hug. I could tell Delilah liked her instantly, it was impossible to dislike Rebecca. 

"Hi Delilah, I'm Zayn. Nice to meet you" he said as he smiled sheepishly in her direction. 

"Oh trust me I know who you are!" she said instantly and we all laughed. Her hands were a bit shaky but she was taking it so well, I was proud of her. 

"Well I'm glad I know who you are now" he said and I could see Delilah's cheeks turn a crimson color. Oh my gosh, Zayn was flirting with her! We all stood there shocked to see Zayn so outgoing, Harry nudged my arm and gave me a wink and I couldn't help but giggle. This was definitely a good start...
