LIAM"What took you so long?" Dels eyes me curiously as our friends enter their suite across the hall."The girl working the front desk noticed who I am and went into shock. Then the manager didn't believe that I'm your husband. Finally, the guys came in with your key and now I'm here." I explain opening the door and following her into the suite where she's been living with Tessa. I glance around and notice they've kept the place pretty tidy. There's an abundance of chocolates on the kitchen counter though. Dels smiles mischievously, "So husband, you wanted to get me here alone and now you have me. What's your next move?" She slowly walks to her room leaving a trail of clothing behind her. Gulping, I quickly follow behind her shuffling out of my shoes and pulling my shirt over my head, tossing it behind me. She turns around wrapping her arms around my neck waiting for my answer. "My next move?" I question, eyeing her up and down. "I hadn't really thought about that. I'm still in shoc
LIAMA sense of foreboding overcomes me as I enter the room my lawyers set up after knocking gently on the door. "I'm glad you finally agreed to meet with me." A pretty brunette sits on the bed in front of me patting the space beside her. Her face is heavily done up with makeup, her clothes hug her tightly leaving very little to the imagination, and she looks suspiciously not pregnant. I raise my brows at her skeptically, “Nah, I'm good over here." I say crossing my arms in front of me. She chuckles and the high pitched sound hurts my ears. “Oh Liam. We can do this the easy way or the hard way, but one way or another you'll be sleeping with me today." She narrows her eyes at me and I'm genuinely terrified. This chick truly believes what she's saying. "Yeah, that’s going to be a problem for me. I'm happily married and since you are clearly not pregnant I'll be leaving now." I nod in her direction and head towards the door, but she stops me grasping my arm with her talons before I c
DELILAH "Hey, what took you so long?" I question Liam who looks at me strangely, like he has something to hide. I smile approaching him slowly and wrapping my arms around his neck. He doesn't return the smile making me pull back. “Delilah, something is going to happen and I can't tell you what it is. I need you to trust me though okay?""Trust you? What are you talking about Liam? You're scaring me." "I can't say much okay? I'm not going to be able to see you or talk to you for a while. And things are going to be hard.""What are you talking about? We're going on our honeymoon tomorrow.""No. You and Tess are going. I have to stay here and handle a few things. Okay?" He kisses me on the lips quickly and then looks away. "I love you Dels. Just remember that okay?" He turns and walks out of my room leaving me a confused mess. What the hell just happened? Tessa tumbles into the room minutes later looking just as confused as I am. "What in the world is going on Lilah?" She sits next t
TESSA"Hey Lilah. I'll meet you by the pool in a minute ok?" I say grabbing my phone and beach bag as she hops onto the elevator and puts her sunglasses on. We've been lucky to avoid any paparazzi while we've been here. I think they are all in LA following Liam and his trashy new girlfriend around. We've seen dozens of pictures daily of him with her. I swear the next time I see that boy I'm kicking him straight in the balls. The weirdest part about it all is that he doesn't look happy with her. I don't get it. Tyler picks up the call on the second ring. "Hey Tessa. How are things going there?" He asks like we’re still friends. Fuck that. He’s clearly chosen the she devils side. "I'm not calling to chitchat. Okay?" I say perhaps a bit too harshly. "Okay. What's up?" He replies nervously. He should be. "Someone should be delivering some paperwork to Liam today. I need you to make sure he signs it and gets them back to Lilah's dad.""Tessa, what kind of papers?" He asks hurriedly. "
TYLER"Hey Man." I approach him cautiously. I’m not surprised to see that he’s with Alexandria again. The chick barely lets him out of her sight. It’s so annoying. "Can I talk to you for a moment in private?" I ask and notice he looks at her, silently asking for permission. Weird. "Sure." She says. "I was just headed to the ladies room to powder my nose anyway. Make it quick okay baby?" She kisses him on the lips and I swear he cringes before nodding. "So these came for you." I say handing him the paperwork from Delilah. He looks at the papers confused. "What is this?" He asks. "Tessa asked me to make sure you sign them and get them to Delilah's dad. He'll take care of the rest. No need to drag this out and hurt her anymore than you already have." I say pointedly."She wants a divorce?" He asks astonished and I can't help but laugh at how dumbfounded he is. "Of course she does. What did you think would happen? You sent her on your honeymoon with someone else while you parade aroun
LIAM"You're not trying hard enough. People are still saying they like her better than me." Alexandria whines at me while we're approaching the red carpet. I notice Taylor approaching with some of Delilah's friends and brace for impact. "You've moved on quickly." Taylor scrunches her nose up at me in disapproval as her squad files in around us. Alexandria pulls me closer to her if that's even possible. I frown, wanting to beg someone to get me away from this psycho. Can they not see that I clearly am here against my will?"What do you mean?" Alexandria flips her hair behind her shoulders. "Liam has been into me since we met last year. Isn't that right Liam?" She narrows her eyes at me and Taylor scowls. I nod unenthusiastically. Can someone please get me away from this psycho? "Okay then." Taylor looks between us questioningly. "We should hang out sometime, Taylor." Alexandria states. "If Liam will let me out of his sight." She chuckles at her own joke as we all stare at her blankly
DELILAH "What are you doing here?" I ask Liam after finding him lingering outside my door. "Hey Dels. I came to see you obviously." He smiles at me and I frown back at him. Does he really think he can just show up here and pretend like nothing happened?"You didn't sign the divorce papers Liam." "I don't want a divorce." He states calmly."I do." I deadpan and Liam frowns in return. He looks heartbroken, but I refuse to fall for his bullshit this time around. "You don't Dels. Not really. You love me and I love you. We're supposed to be together." He states stepping towards me just as Zack opens the door to leave my room. "Oh, I didn't know you had company." He says trying to hide the pain from his eyes. He looks at me, his eyes full of betrayal. "I'll see you later Delilah, yeah?" Zack asks and I nod as he kisses my cheek and walks away. "I asked you to trust me Dels. It's barely been a month and you have a guy in your room?" Liam frowns. "I did this for you.""You’re one to tal
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
