Delilah's POV
The plane landed in New York hours ago, but I've been apartment hunting so far I found nothing. Walking down on the streets I stopped at a mall, I need new combat boots. Decided to check something's out I wondered helplessly around the mall.

A sinking feeling of being watched settled in my stomach. And I picked up my walking pace, but someone caught my hand. Turning around I clenched my fist, but I was facing a girl with milky blue eyes with blonde and black hair. "Your not around here, yeah?" she smiled. "Oregon" I laughed bitterly.

"Cheshire" she held out her hand "Delilah" I shook her hand. "I'll show you around, think of me as your BFF" she laughed and held out her arm. Taking it I sent her a great full smile "then I'll be your BFF" I giggled. Something about her made me trust her instantly.

I don't make friends easily, they never came the trustworthy wide she did.

After shopping with Cheshire we were walking in the streets when I passed a flyer for a penthouse apartment. And it was for sale! Quickly stopping I grabbed a flyer and then started reading. "You can't be kidding me?" she screamed taking the flyer from my hands.

"De, you aren't getting this!" she screamed causing passing people to stare "I need a place" I shrugged, whipping out my phone to call. Her jaw slightly dropped and they picked up "hi, I'd like to buy your penthouse?" I started, grabbing her hand and began walking.

As the conversation went I found out they would like to meet me there, and I agreed hastily. "You wanna come?" I asked as we stared at the building. "Hell yeah!" she screeched before dragging one of my bags in after her. I laughed and followed her, apparently a guy my age parents didn't want it anymore! Lucky me!

Cheshire was talking to a woman and man who held papers in their hands, "hello Delilah" the woman chirped before hugging me. "Uh hi?" I said confused. "Honey get off the poor girl" her husband scolded "or right I'm Melody Parker, your moms best friend!" she announced  before hugging me.

Right Auntie Mel!

"You won't need to sign papers we will transfer it over to you" she waved me off, I paid her and they gave me a key. "My son Blake will stop by with his boyfriend Ryder later" she waved and they were gone. "Let's go" Cheshire whined tugging me towards the elevator, "I'm coming" I groaned and walked very slowly just to annoy her.

The ride was silent but I tapped my foot waiting, ding! The ride was over at last! As we stepped of the moving machine my leg wobbled, ehh. Cheshire wasn't moving, "something wrong?" I poked her not paying attention to my surrounding. "Your. Penthouse!" she screamed and took off running.

Right, the elevator went into the house, duh.

I had two story with a terrace.

"It's a new beginning at least" I breathed and put a smile on my face.
