CHAPTER THIRTY-TWO: DEJA VU

*****

Deliah's POV

We entered the room and it felt like time froze. Apparently everyone but me knew about Keanu and Jack's fued because everyone stopped what they were doing and stared bewildered.

"What is he doing here?" Keanu yells standing up.

"Woah" Damon jumps up and holds Keanu back while Jack just stands there with folded arms and a smirk on his face.

"What the hell are you doing here, Jack?" Nate questions.

"I'm just accompanying this lovely woman over here." he says with a shrug, looking between Keanu and Kelsey.

"He's here with you, Deliah?" Keanu asks losing his shit.

"Yes. I invited my friend to my room to keep me company. I didn't think it would be a problem" I say innocently, ignoring Kelsey's stinkeye.

"Over my dead fucking body! He's not and won't ever be your fucking friend!" Keanu yells trying to free himself from Damon's death grip.

"Okay, why don't we all relax and sit down. Jack stay away from Keanu and Keanu stay away from Jack and let's all get back to you know, drinking." Nate says literally pushing Keanu back down on the couch.

After that things kinda went back to normal except for the occasional deathstares Keanu sent Jack's way and the few times he tried to lunge at him when he put his hands on my arm or leg. I wanted nothing more than to smack it off but I was loving Keanu's reaction too much.

"Let's get out of here." Kelsey told Keanu while disgustingly stroking   his arm. "Mmh." Keanu replied not taking his eyes off of us.

"Come on baby." she kept on whining. "We can do it in the room in the hallway." she whispered dragging him up. As soon as they were up she started dragging him towards my room. "Come on baby, I'll be good to you."

"The fuck you will!" I say snapping and basically jumping off the couch. Damon shakes his head and pulls me into his grasp before I get the chance to screw Kelsey's head off. "Calm down, chica." "So I'm supposed to stay calm and just let them demonize my room?"  "Well that's one way to state it." Armando laughs and before I could reply my phone rang.

"Hello...who? Okay." I say and hang up.

"Code red. Party's over. Teachers are doing room inspections." I told the guys.  That immediately caused them to start cleaning up their mess and they were out in less then 5 minutes. I couldn't help but wonder if Kelsey and Keanu were still together.

Later that night while I was laying in bed a million thoughts crossed my mind.

Was he still interested in me? He literally brought his girlfriend to a party in my room. But he did get super angry and jealous when I arrived with Jack. But he also was the first one to leave.

I think it's better to go to sleep because all this thinking is giving me a headache.

My thoughts are interrupted when I hear knocking on my door. I quickly look at the alarm clock on the nightstand. It's almost eleven.

I stand up and make my way to the door. When I open it I'm met with hazel eyes and a sheepish smile.

"Hey, can I come in?" Keanu asks like a child who's been scolded by their mother.

"Sure" I say and welcome him in. We sit on the balcony and take in the view of the night sky for about ten minutes before he starts the conversation.

"So, about tonight." he starts. "I'm sorry for the way I reacted. It's just when I saw the two of you together I got so..."

"Jealous?"

"Angry." he smiles.

"I'm pretty sure I sensed jealousy." I smile back.

"Im not allowed to be jealous, I have a girlfriend remember."

"That doesn't mean you can't be." I say with a subtle smirk.

"Looks who's talking little miss 'I'll screw your head off" he mocks

"Okay fine, I may have overreacted a tiny little bit but it's not like I would've done anything to her. And you definitely were jealous."

"Well I'm not denying that I was maybe a little bit jealous but I do wanna say sorry for any and all emotions I was feeling tonight and for the way I expressed them." He says taking my hands and lightly pecking them.

"Um, you have a girlfriend. Remember?" I say which causes him to roll his eyes.

The rest of the night we just talked. No kissing, no touching, just talking under the moonlight. Hours passed and he left my room at about one in the morning but clearly got enough sleep because the next day he was a machine on the field. All of the guys were. And I would know, I was the photographer after all.

These past few weeks I've learned enough about football to get excited and frustrated at the right times. I would definitely make the perfect supporting girlfriend/bestfriend.

The team won all four matches but were way too exhausted to celebrate right away so they immediately departed to their rooms after their last game but not without gloating first obviously. I luckily got to go with  Damon and Keanu to their  room while they freshened up before resting.

Damon was already as fresh as a daisy and laid with me on the couch but fell asleep about ten minutes later while Keanu was in the shower. A loud knock on the door almost woke Damon up so I carefully removed his unconscious body from mine and made my way to the door.

"Andreen, what a lovely surprise." I greet sarcastically.

"What are you doing here, freak? And where's Keanu?"

"In the shower, hopefully with the door locked." I say looking her up and down.

"Oh please. If he knew I was here, he would've already invited me in." she says smirking.

"Yeah, sure." I say attempting to close the door but she opens it fully and enters the room.

"Dude, Damon's asleep and I'm sure he doesn't want to wake up to your screeching voice so can you please exit and come back later?"

"I'm not comfortable leaving you alone here with Keanu." she says folding her arms.

"Well one, we're not alone. And two, I don't care." I grab hold of her locks and start literally pulling her out of the room.

"Leave me alone you freak!" she shouts freeing her hair from my grasp. "Are you crazy?" she shreeks.

"Maybe" I shrug.

Suddenly she freezes. Her eyes go wide and her breathing speeds up as she slowly backs away from me. All of a sudden deja vu hits me and a certain scene replays in my head.

"Did you... were you.." she stutters. She's shaking and trembling like a chihuahua and realization hits me like a truck.

She remembers.
