DELILAHMy mom used to call these blue bird days. The sun is shining and there's not a single cloud in the sky. I look over to Tess to see what she wants to do today. "Why don't we get brunch by the pool?" She answers, "Then we can walk to the pier for a bit before you meet Zack for mini golf later?" "About that. Liam's here." I mention casually. I’m still in disbelief myself. The idiot really messed things up this time. "When did that happen?" Tessa's expression is unreadable. "He showed up last night as Zack was leaving. Didn't seem too thrilled to see him in my room." "But nothing happened with Zack right?" Tessa furrows her brows at me. "Of course not, but Liam doesn't need to know that. He wouldn't sign the paperwork either.""He loves you." She states matter of factly."Psshhh. He has a funny way of showing it then.""You're not serious right now are you? He wasn't really with her. He was trying to protect you. Of course he probably could have thought it through a little bet
LIAM"Of course I want to join you." I tell Delilah while shooting her my sexiest smile. If that doesn't make her warm up to me I'm not sure what else will. It usually turns girls into puddles, but Dels has been harder for me to entice these days. Maybe that has something to do with my agreeing to date Alexandria instead of coming clean about her blackmailing me.Delilah shakes her head and grabs her phone from the table, standing up and straightening her skirt. "As friends, Liam. We can hang out as friends." I raise my eyebrow at her in challenge. "Dels, enlighten me, when has being just friends ever worked out for us?" I stand up too, making it a point to be much more in her personal space than necessary. "You know the chemistry between us is too strong for that to work out."She places her hand on my chest and lets out a tiny chuckle. "Maybe so, but I'm officially friend zoning you anyway." She walks ahead of me cutting down a path near the beach that heads towards the pier. Tessa
DELILAH We are sitting on the balcony of my suite watching the sunset over the turqouise blue water below. Seagulls are flying about in droves chasing after a small child with french fries running down the beach. "I'll be back guys. I need to go pickup Tyler. His plane just landed." Tessa smiles at me before hopping out of her chair beside me and straightening her top. She quickly checks her reflection in the glass door behind us. Not that she needs to Tess is classically flawless, long blonde hair, blue eyes and sunkissed skin. Tyler doesn't stand a chance."Tyler's here? I didn't realize that he was coming." I look at Liam accusingly as Tessa quickly scurries out the door to pickup Tyler from the airport, leaving Liam and I alone on the balcony. "Of course he came. I needed my wingman after all." "Your wingman?" I repeat slowly. "Why would you need a wingman?" He scowls, eyeing me cautiously, "Oh I don't know. Maybe because my wife has decided to date the bar staff while we're
LIAM Tyler and I are goofing around in the living room when there is a knock at the door. Tyler makes it to the door before I can, peeping through the eye hole. "Are we expecting a buff tan tattooed guy?" Ty turns and asks me casually. I scowl, "Must be Delilah's date. How mad would she be if we just tell him to leave?" Tyler chuckles, "I don't know if that's the best idea. Let's bring him inside, try to make him uncomfortable." "I like where your heads at. Let him in." Tyler opens the door and slowly eyes the guy from head to toe. "Can I help you?" He asks him pointedly. "Hey man, I'm Zack. I'm here to pick up Delilah." "Huh. Chad is it? Well, Chad, I don't think Delilah is ready. She probably forgot about your little date. You can come in and wait if you want." Zack shuffles inside the door watching Tyler cautiously. "It's Zack actually. Aren't you the drummer in that one band?" Tyler nods. "That'd be me. Liam here is the lead singer." I nod at Zack, my arms crossed and ch
DELILAH"Am I hallucinating or is this actually happening?" Tyler whispers to me as the four of us stare at Lucy in disbelief. Zack has already moved on to flirting with a few tourists in the group behind us. Lucy is currently licking the end of her golf club seductively while staring at my husband. "That can't be sanitary." Tessa chuckles shaking her head. Liam shifts awkwardly behind me, looking anywhere but at her. "I honestly am feeling a bit violated right now. Where the hell did you find this chick Tyler?" "Luke gave me her contact. He met her at a concert a couple months back." Tyler answers. "She clearly was checking all the boxes that he requires." Tessa chokes on her laugh. "Clearly.""Dels why don't we head back. This chick is super creepy." Liam whispers in my ear. "So Liam." Lucy eyes him up and down after she's finished assaulting the golf club with her mouth. "Is doggy style still your favorite position, because I read in gossip girl weekly that it is. It's mine too
LIAM "So what now?" Dels asks as I check over my shoulder for the fifth time while waiting for the elevator. "I don't know. I'm so worried that crazy chick is going to find us before we make it upstairs." I say wrapping my arms around her as the elevator bell finally dings and the doors open. I quickly pull her inside and frantically tap the close button. She looks up at me amused. "Don't worry. I'm sure they took her down to the station for public indecency. I've never seen anything so crazy in my entire life." She reasons threading her fingers through mine and pulling me closer to her as she leans on the wall behind her. "I've never felt so violated." I tell her honestly. "She was very persistent. I'm still not sure how she got her clothes off that quickly." Delilah laughs, dropping my hands and stepping out of the elevator as the doors open up to our floor. I quickly lead her inside, locking the door behind us."Would you rather rent a movie or hang out on the balcony with a bo
DELILAH I'm startled from my peaceful dream in which I was floating around a pool on my flamingo raft while Liam fed me grapes, by a loud noise in the front room. I sit up quickly prying Liam's arms from around my waist and look around to gather my surroundings. I hold my breath and listen closely, another loud crash confirms that I didn't just imagine the commotion to begin with. "Liam wake up." I say shaking him. "Someone's in our suite.""Hmmmm don't eat my bananas," he mumbles trying to pull me closer. I look at him puzzled, what the heck is he dreaming about. I shake him some more, just as I hear a loud bang right outside the door. "Shit, Liam we're under attack. Wake up!" I pull the covers off of him and he finally pops up, eyes wide. "What is going on?" He asks rubbing his eyes as another crash occurs nearer. "Shit!""Something is out there. What should we do?" I ask nervously. "What if it's that crazy girl? What if she found us?"Liam shivers in fear, "I'll check, you stay
LIAMFor some unknown reason Dels decided to set an alarm to wake us up this morning. "Babe. Make it stop." I beg, releasing my hold on her as she quickly silences her phone. "What kind of monster sets an alarm while on vacation anyway?" I tease pulling her back into my arms."I thought you were going to keep your hands to yourself." She whispers sleepily while snuggling in closer to me. "You don't seem to mind too much." I tease."Well, you are a good snuggler. It's hard to resist your charms." She turns to face me, removing any space between us. "You're making it very hard to be your friend." I mumble, my voice still thick with sleep."Am I making it hard?" She smirks, her honey brown eyes full of mischief at her innuendo."You're such a tease, Dels. I think you know exactly what you're doing to me." I say tucking one of her wild curls behind her ear. I want her so badly, but I know it's more important that we fix things between us first."So is there a reason for you waking us up
